know very much about him.”
    Sasha’s gaze softened and a small smile tugged at her lips. “Don’t worry, Princess. Now that you are back where you belong, the two of you have a lifetime to get to know one another. I know it’s difficult to put your trust in new people after what you’ve been through, but Prince Stone won’t let you down.”
    Alyssa returned her mind to their previous conversation and curiosity pushed her to ask, “You said that Stone let me orgasm and it made me lose energy. You don’t mean that all Klatch women have to forego orgasm before their coming-of-age ceremony?”
    Sasha turned to face Alyssa with a sexy half smile that made her pulse jump. “Not at all. It just means they must eat more to maintain their sustenance. Think of sexual energy as another food group, but the most important one for our people. While we need water and food, sex can cover for both of them for a time.” Her kohl-lined lavender eyes sparked with amusement. “I have a feeling many of our human sisters wish it were the same way for them.”
    Alyssa thought about all the women she knew who either complained about not getting enough sex or went without it altogether. “I think you have a very good point.” She smiled at Sasha, who grinned in return. “I feel completely out of my element here, so you’ll have to tell me what I’m supposed to do.”
    “As your lady’s maid, I’m here to be your companion, your confidant and your friend. Not to mention, I’ve always been curious about the human world. How about you answer my questions and I’ll answer yours?” She smiled, her pink tongue darting out to moisten her bottom lip.
    Alyssa found herself fascinated with the small action and longed to feel the woman’s pink tongue exploring inside her mouth.
    “Let’s get you out of these clothes and into a bath.” She pulled Alyssa’s shirt up and after a moment of shock, Alyssa raised her arms, so the shirt could continue its path over her head.
    She opened her eyes in time to see Sasha fold it carefully and lay it on the chair. She raised each leg dutifully as Sasha pulled off her boots and placed them on the floor next to the chair.
    “I understand humans are modest. But here on Tador, where sex is a needed staple, modesty only gets in the way of your well-being. I will try to keep your discomfort in mind and explain what’s happening, since I know this is all new to you.” Sasha stood and faced her. “How did you keep up your sexual energy among the humans—besides your dreams with the prince?”
    Alyssa swallowed hard. She’d spent her whole life trying to hide her body, and now it looked like it was expected that she show it freely. Resisting the sudden urge to grab for her shirt, she balled her hands at her sides. This is my real home. I need to get used to who I am supposed to be. “I didn’t know I needed the sexual energy, but I did, uh, take care of things myself quite a bit.”
    “You’re a Klatch. That’s perfectly normal.” Sasha stepped forward and reached both arms around Alyssa’s waist to unfasten the button and zipper of her jean skirt, their full breasts brushing against each other. Heat coiled in her stomach and she wondered how it would feel to have this woman’s soft breasts pressed against hers with nothing between them but skin. At the thought, a rush of energy flowed through Alyssa’s body and she bit back a moan.
    Now that she was paying attention to it, she could see the energy as a direct result of the sexual stimulation. No wonder I always felt as if my energy drained away when I had my sessions with the showerhead!
    Sasha slowly unzipped the skirt, her breath feathering against the side of Alyssa’s neck, causing her to gasp as another shudder of pure lust and energy flowed through her veins.
    The maid turned her face into Alyssa’s neck and whispered, “Remember, Princess, sexual energy is like food here. There are very few things forbidden.” Before Alyssa could
