move on him, starting slow,
enjoying the feel of him inside her. “Unless you have some penchant
for violence I don’t know about.” She leaned forward, placing both
of her hands on his chest as she dropped a kiss on his lips. “Or
are you kinkier than I thought? Mmm…I might like that, you
know.”
    “ Della,” he growled. “Are you
trying to make me crazy?” She saw his grin and knew he liked her
teasing. “If you don’t watch out, you’ll find out just how kinky I
can be.”
    “ Promises, promises.”
    She sat up and began to ride him in earnest,
watching him as she bounced over him. She saw the way his eyes
followed her breasts, delighted in the way his strong hands molded
her hips. Before long, he was guiding her, helping her lift upward
on each stroke. He was so strong, even from that position, he could
manipulate her body, using his strength to aid her in moving just
the way he wanted her to move. The way she wanted to move. The way
guaranteed to bring them both to ecstasy.
    It didn’t take long. Between the two of them, he
reached deeper within her than any man ever had—physically and
emotionally. She held his gaze as they both tumbled over the edge
together. She screamed his name as she came and she heard his
answering shout as she collapsed over him. Hot jets of his come
filled her, warming her from the inside out while his arms
surrounded her, making her feel safe and... loved.
    She hugged the forbidden thought to her heart.
Wouldn’t it be nice if he could feel just an ounce of the love she
felt? Would he ever be able to give his heart? She didn’t know.
    Would he accept hers if she offered it? She didn’t
know the answer to that question either.
    For a gifted seer, there was a lot about which she
had no clue. It would be embarrassing if it weren’t so
heartbreaking.
    With a weary sigh, she snuggled into his arms,
allowing him to reposition them on the big bed. She was exhausted.
They fell asleep in a tangle of limbs.

    Just before lunch, the door chime sounded and the
hatch clicked to indicate its seals had been unlocked. Alex stood
ready to face whoever had come to call. Della was by his side.
    “ Enter,” he called.
    The hatch slid open and the doctor stepped in.
    “ Glad I am to find you both well.
His highness asked me to escort you to him after removing the
sensors.”
    Della blushed as the doctor moved inside and the
hatch shut behind him.
    “ I didn’t get your name, doctor,”
she said conversationally. “I’m Della Turago.” She held out her
hand as she would have to any human, but the doctor apparently
didn’t understand the gesture. He merely took her hand and removed
the small adhesive sensor that had been placed over the pulse point
in her wrist. The clear sensors were so small and lightweight, she
hadn’t really noticed them.
    “ I am Doctor Hugo Tervanian, royal
physician,” he said politely. “Many of my patients call me simply
Doctor Terva.”
    “ I will do the same, if I may. And
you can call me Della.” She smiled prettily at him while he removed
the sensor that had been adhered to her temple.
    “ If I may ask...” The doctor
seemed to hesitate, then regrouped. “Are all human women as
responsive as you? You see, yours are the first readings I’ve had
the opportunity to see during... uh... intimacy. I grew alarmed
before I realized why the readings were spiking.” Doctor Terva shot
an amused look at Alex. The big lug looked smugly pleased, but it
didn’t really bother her. She was feeling kind of smug after last
night too.
    “ I can’t speak for other women,
but I can honestly tell you that I have never responded to anyone
the way I respond to Alexander.” She held Alex’s gaze as she made
the admission, pleased to see the fire leap in his eyes.
    The doctor looked satisfied. “That’s as it should be
between true mates. Still, your readings were higher than any I’ve
seen before.”
    That got her attention. “Made a habit of being
