guys bowed to them and wished them many babies and much sex. Alicka grinned when she realized the groftoc was getting to them. The usual well-wishing was for happiness and many babies.
    Slanon laughed and thanked them before guiding her inside and closing the door.
    Mr. Tickles climbed down Slanon and hopped over to the bed. He climbed up the comforter and snuggled into the center of the bed.
    “Not on your life, pink bomb.” Slanon picked up her pet, who instantly started whining. Not fazed, he put Mr. Tickles out into the hallway and quickly shut the door.
    A snort sounded from the other side and she had to hold back a giggle, because lukpas had good hearing. Her laughter died when she looked into Slanon’s hungry eyes.

Chapter Five
     
    Slanon turned to follow Alicka’s wide gaze. She’d gone from looking at him to looking at the door. He withheld a frustrated growl when he saw a fluffy pink tail poking under the door. It was funny, but right now, he wanted some sensual breeding time with his mate. The tail continued to probe under the door. He pulled it open and saw Mr. Tickles lying on his belly, trying to look under the door.
    “You are unbelievable.” He picked the lukpas up and carried him to the kitchen. “She belongs to me now. You’re going to have to accept it, buddy, because it’s happened.”
    Knowing Mr. Fuzzy liked picplom fruit, he cut one up in several pieces and placed them all over the living room. Satisfied, he turned to run down the hall and into his bedroom.
    Slanon stopped when he saw Alicka watching him from the edge of the kitchen. She put her finger over her lips and headed to their room. He followed her inside and quickly closed the door.
    Small arms circled his waist. Alicka grinned up at him. “You are so sweet.”
    He growled softly as her scent rose up and heated his blood to a steady boil. “I can be sweet in other places in the house, too.”
    “Mmmm, where else can you be sweet?” Her eyelids fluttered shut as her lips pressed to his chest.
    After picturing a pink tail poking under the bedroom door, he answered, “The bathtub.” Figuring he had a few minutes before Mr. Fuzzy finished his fruit, he added, “I have a surprise for you first. Take off your clothes and get on the bed while I get your claiming gift.”
    As she stripped, she asked, “Isn’t the necklace a claiming gift?”
    “Not really. It’s a sign that you are taken. This is something that will bring us both great joy in a different way than the claiming necklaces.”
    Slanon went to his dresser drawer and pulled out the small box he’d bought a couple of years ago in preparation for their special day.
    Going to the bed, he opened it and showed her the small loop of metal. It was wide and engraved. He pulled it from the box and held it up.
    “What do the engraved words mean?” Her pretty eyes lit with curiosity.
    Looking deeply into her eyes, he answered, “You are my heart’s desire.” He meant it. Even when their world began filling with human females, Slanon knew Alicka would be the only one he wanted.
    “I love it. You are stealing my heart.” Alicka brushed back the strands of black hair that had fallen onto his right cheek and then kissed him full on the mouth.
    He allowed her to lead for a few moments and then took over. In a heartbeat, he had her on her back and was bracing himself over her petite frame. The tyrant between his legs was demanding to be released from its material prison.
    Heeding his carnal ruler’s needs, Slanon hurriedly kissed his way to her ear. “This will only hurt a little.”
    “Go ahead. I can take anything you give me.” The scent of her arousal strengthened, causing him to almost wait on her gift.
    Wanting her to feel the metal’s power, he forced his own need down. “I’m going to pierce your upper ear and then run the metal through it. After that, I’ll lick it healed. This metal is from a planet known for its pleasure-giving items. This is one of
