shared.
“Yet.” Darius wrapped his arm around the female’s neck and
dragged her back against him, her curves slight and unappealing. He pressed the
muzzle of his gun against the future-bender’s forehead, his gaze never leaving
Sabria’s.
“If you kill me like this, she’ll never love you.” The
future-bender spoke to him quietly as though he was a child to be appeased.
She couldn’t appease him. Only Sabria could bring him
happiness and she had made her choice. “ Balazoids don’t care about
love.” Darius resorted to his training, burying his dream, a dream Sabria had
crafted for him. They have families, breeders they love and protect and
offspring of their own, and they’re happy… “And she’s leaving with him .”
“I’m not leaving with him.” Sabria stepped forward. “I’m
staying with you. I have the code and we’ll disarm the bomb together. I give
you my word.”
Why would she choose me, a Dreck , over her
brother? Darius doused his rising hopes with the cold shower of reality. “And
I’m to trust you?”
“Yes, you’re to trust me.” Sabria walked toward him, her
body armor creaking, her gaze fixed on him, and Darius’ heart pounded, his
breath quickening. “Only me.”
“But you have to let them leave unharmed.” Sabria placed her
hand on his arm and a jolt of energy shot across his shoulders. She’s
choosing me, me. He lowered his gun, his body relaxing. “Let her go,
Darius.”
He released the future-bender, listening to his heart and
the raging feelings inside him. “Go.” Darius shoved the female toward Sabria’s
brother. The future-bender stumbled. “Quickly, before I change my mind.”
“Come, Falyn,” Traz growled. The future-bender scooped up
the android’s detached head and ran. The couple disappeared around the bend,
leaving him with Sabria, his future.
“Thank you.” Sabria stared at Darius, her brown eyes wide.
He cupped her beautiful face, needing to touch her, to
confirm that she was real, that she was with him. “You promised to stay in our
chambers,” he admonished gruffly.
Pink streaked across her golden cheeks. “I promised to stay
and I have stayed with you.” Her lips parted, her breasts rising and falling,
her curves clearly outlined in the skintight armor, and Darius’ cock hardened,
lust mixing with his gratitude and relief. “My brother loves Falyn and he would
have killed you. I couldn’t allow that to happen.”
Darius’ breath hitched at the concern in her voice, concern
for him. “Because you vowed to protect me.”
“Because I love you,” Sabria whispered.
Darius froze. “What?” he croaked, his voice hoarse with raw
emotion. He searched her face for any indication she joked.
“Because I love you,” Sabria repeated slowly, her moving
lips matching her heart-stopping message.
“You love me.” Darius pulled her to him, crushing her face
against his chest, holding her tightly, his female, his breeder, his heart and
soul and reason for being. “Me, Darius, a Dreck , a Balazoid , an
assassin.”
“Don’t forget woman-hating asshole,” she muttered against
his leather jacket, her slender arms wrapped around him, her mons pressed
against his hard cock. “With the personality of an Ungarian fur
burrower.”
“And the intelligence of a Mox-X addict.” Darius
chuckled, the response feeling natural and right. “Is that the male you love?”
“Apparently.” She tilted her head back and grinned up at
him, her cheeks moist, her eyes tinged with red. “He’s also not good at saying
‘I love you’ back.”
Darius brushed his lips over her nose. “But he’s very good
at showing it.”
“Explosive device detected in main sleeping compartment,”
Ship reminded them, interrupting the tender moment.
“He unfortunately can’t show it right now.” Sabria sighed,
her body sliding along Darius’. “Not unless he wants a mess in his sleeping
chambers.” She stepped away from him.
