“Home?”
“To Earth. Where you belong. If you are willing to get yourself killed to return to that wretched planet of yours, then who am I to keep you here against your will. You are free. Let’s go.”
To my surprise, Alice didn’t budge. Her face looked tormented, and she grew rigid where she stood.
“You mean you’re going to release me?”
“You were never my prisoner, human,” I said. “You were simply mine. And as that is not the way you want to live, then you are free to leave.”
Alice opened and closed her mouth, then slumped down on the floor, a sob wracking her chest. I rushed to her side and helped her back to her feet, holding her steady as we moved to a couch.
“What is it, human? What have I done wrong this time?”
She shook her head, as if unable to speak, and swallowed hard. “I don’t know…the thought of leaving…”
I furrowed my brow, unable to understand these humans and their strange, contradictory emotions. Did she want to go, or did she want to stay? I would never know unless she told me.
“It is a short trip. Perhaps two days at most. We can have you back before you know it.”
“That’s just it,” she exclaimed, her gorgeous eyes boring into mine. A forbidden surge of heat consumed me, and I was tempted to look away, but what she was saying seemed far too important. I held her gaze, despite my confusion. “I think I need to think about this.”
I was stunned when the human got up and walked away, shutting herself in her room and leaving me alone on the couch, wondering if I would ever possibly be able to do anything right by her.

“Kecha?”
I sat up in bed, startled awake by the human’s soft, almost pleading voice.
“Human? Come in. What is it? Are you well?”
“I’m fine,” Alice said quietly, coming closer to me.
“Sit,” I said, moving aside so the human could take a seat.
She did, and the room was filled with the sweet fragrance of her hair, and the gentle soaps that had been imported from Kerna that were just delicate enough for the sensitive skin of a human. It was intoxicating, and yet I would not make a move. Not when the human so resented me.
“Now tell me, what is it that you want?”
She turned to face me, her beautiful oceanic eyes filled with an emotion that was hard for me to interpret.
“When I left to stow away on that ship…”
Alice’s gentle voice trailed off, and I scooted closer to her, trying hard not to admire the way the bright moonlight highlighted the sensual curves of her body. She was here to talk, not for my unrelenting desires.
“Yes?”
“I found myself wishing I was back here. With you. Home.”
“Home?” I asked, startled by the word. “Is not Earth your home?”
“It was…” Alice said, looking down at her hands. “And I have been so angry at you for bringing me here, for lying…but…”
I took the human’s hands in mine, watching her closely. She was such a beautiful creature. If only I could show her just how much she meant to me…
“I get it now. Finally. I get that maybe you were scared, just like I was scared, to lose this.”
She laced her fingers through mine and lifted my hand up so that our hand was between us.
A deep, urgent desire began to simmer deep within me, and the human’s beautiful eyes flashed at me, as if she, too, were feeling the same thing.
“I don’t want to lose you,” she whispered.
That was all I needed to hear. I lifted the human and brought her close to me. She let out an attractive gasp and closed her eyes, our lips finding each other’s in the dark. The sweetness of her breath consumed me, and my loins were engulfed in flames. I had never seen anything quite so beautiful as the human’s body, and now that I was about to feast upon it again, my need consumed me.
I could feel the heat of her desire pressed against my groin, my muscle hardening under the friction of her body. I took the initiative and stripped her slowly, my eyes devouring every delicious curve of her sensual body. She trembled and gasped as my lips tasted the supple flesh of her breasts, finding the hard, pink nipple and slipping it inside my mouth, enveloping it with heat. She melted under my touch, her body awakened by a sudden voracious desire. She was mine.
I shook my pajamas off, growling in bliss as I began to feel the soft flesh of her skin against mine. I wanted nothing more than to be one with this human, and I laid her on her back, climbing above her. She gasped as I pried her legs gently apart with my hand, and then slowly, carefully, began to encase my member in the soft, heated folds of her body.
Ecstasy rocked us both, and the expression of pure rapture on the human’s face nearly set me over the edge. I contained myself, however, for the time being, but once I knew she was all right, I knew it was time to unleash my full power.
Alice’s gasps grew louder as I showered her body with hot, tender kisses, my member sinking deep within her and embraced by the sensual walls of her body. We became one at that moment, our pleasure intrinsically linked as we devoured the bounty of our passions and explored the height of ecstasy together.
“You are mine,” I reminded her, a deep growl in my voice as I spoke into her ear. I felt her body tense up beneath me and then yield completely to the power of my desire.
I worked myself within her, again and again, until neither of us could suppress our climaxes any longer. A hot tingle erupted deep within my abdomen, and I hissed in pleasure as my hot seed began to burst forth. Together, just as I had wished, we would begin to repopulate my home planet.
The sensation of my seed as it poured into her sent Alice into a fit of trembles, her body surrendering beneath me to the height of her desire. I held her close, looking deeply into her eyes as she gasped, her climax contracting around my member sweetly, until we were both completely exhausted by the act, our bodies humming with the sacred implications of our union.
We collapsed together on the bed, and I gathered the human into my arms, kissing her gently on the temple as she began to relax, her breathing slowing steadily as we rested.
“Are you sure you do not want to return to Earth?” I asked her. “You are mine, and I will care for you however I must.”
“I’m sure,” she whispered. “Maybe just for a visit. There is so much I can explore on Yala.”
“We would be pleased to have you here,” I agreed. “There is much work for scientifically minded beings. And not only that, but there is much space in this home that must be filled. It is too big to live in alone.”
Alice gazed at me, her expression tender. “I will stay,” she said firmly. “Because I am yours.”
My heart soared, and I held her tightly all through the night, even as we slept. I could finally rest easy now. My claim had come to pass, and finally, we were both happy and safe. No Raither could ever ask for more.

Chapter One
NICOLE PLIMOC
Everybody has a memory burned into their minds of where they were when the first peaceful Zenkian ship entered Earth’s atmosphere. Most evacuated the city, but I did not because I worked for the military in communications, and it was my job to stay put.
On Earth, we had a pact with the blue-skinned rebel Zenkians known as the Grantsions. They were helping us to defend ourselves against another pack of Zenkians known as the Waysaw. The Waysaw had red skin, and they were brutal.
They had launched a surprise invasion on us decades before. We weren’t even aware that aliens existed then, but we would soon find out. The Waysaw invaded, taking down entire cities. They would steal women and our resources and take them back to the
ir planet. They were nine-foot-tall gladiators with fighting skills we had never seen and technology far more advanced than ours. In short, we were no match for them.
That was why we desired the help of the blue-skinned Zenkians, the Grantsions. They had rebelled long before against the Waysaw, and now the Waysaw were their enemy too. So now the Grantsion had military bases on Earth right next to our own, and getting the Earth military and the Zenkian military to get along was hard: very hard.
I sat in the tower overlooking such a base. I had been transferred from a copper mine known as the Hala mines in the north of the country six months before. I had been transferred to oversee the relations between the Grantsions and the Earth army.
I looked down over the ruined city of Houston, Texas. It was now just rubble, and everything looked burned and dark. This was the aftermath of a Waysaw invasion five years before. Most of the country looked like this now. We built the military bases and towers over the ruined city. It was the perfect place for battle because the city was already ruined and mostly evacuated.
Outside of work, my life in the city was genuinely typical, potentially so boring it could be called exhausting. I was committed to work and invested next to no energy in myself. I was sort of dating somebody, yet that somebody was what my friend Sheila called settling.
"You going out with Sergeant Richard Banks once more: is that an accurate statement? You are settling Nicole," she said to me one day at lunch.
We sat at a table at the bottom of the tower in our military uniform jumpsuits. It was an incredible place for people watching and passing judgment on others.
"Yes, Sheila, you have disclosed that bit of information to me every day since I began seeing him," I said to her.
"I am simply reminding you is all," she said.
"Yes, Sheila, I know he is dreadful. In any case, he is great at sex and has an incredible body. At this moment, that is all that I require. Look around you. We are in a shit hole. I might as well get laid at least," I said as I drank the remainder of my juice. She kind of snickered at my comment.
"Yes, that is incredible. You are getting laid, congrats. Be that as it may, you know, and I know, that you require more than that. You require sentiment and being on the same page, as I do. Much the same as we all do. I'm not saying you should quit having sex with him; however, quit giving him such an extensive amount of your time and vitality. He doesn't deserve it. Call him over to your apartment, do your business, and after that, tell him to clear out. That is my advice," she said.
"Yes, I am extremely mindful that that particular routine of kicking men out after sex is your method for things. I will think about it. In any case, he asked to take me to dinner tonight," I said. “Not that you can actually have a fancy dinner at the one diner that is left here.”
"Dinner? Doesn't he have that awful characteristic of asking you to dinner and afterward concocting some reason for you to pay for it?"
"Could we get back to work now? I have a lot to do," I said feeling irritated that I had disclosed to her such a great amount of information about Sergeant Richard Banks. There was such a concept as giving somebody too much information, and as a communications and information examiner, I should know that.
An hour later, I was sitting at that diner with Sergeant Richard Banks.
I had my dark hair high on my head in an untidy bun. I wore heaps of mascara to highlight my blue eyes and went with a bare lipstick. I felt exceptionally hot in my tightly fitted jeans and low-cut tight tank top. It wasn’t exactly a dinner dress, but it was military hot wear. He sat opposite me eating. He barely surfaced for oxygen. He wore an army jacket and army pants on his extraordinarily fit body. He was the always working out sort.
I attempted to make some kind of discussion, " This diner is an awesome pick. How did you catch wind of it?” I said sarcastically. I knew it was the only place to eat out in the area.
"One of my soldiers recommended it to me," he said.
“Really?” I said laughing at his joke.
“No. Come on? We’re not going to make stupid small talk like that,” he said.
"Okay, I see… " I said.
"About the check. You wouldn't fret about going half on this one with me, right? I knew it would be costly. However, I wasn't anticipating that it should be this costly. You requested the second most expensivedish on the menu, and I ordered the cheapest. You're chugging down that wine like you've never had wine in your life. I believe it's reasonable that you pay for your half," he said.
My face turned a brilliant red.
"Sure, I guess… " I said.
"Extraordinary; so don't get dessert. We need to leave and go to your place. I must be up at an early hour in the morning for a meeting," he said as he waved the server over. I took a look at my plate; it was still for the most part full. I ate at an ordinary pace, not like a pig. He ate his whole dish in sixty seconds. I would eat at the pace that I wanted. I started to eat and didn't waste time with discussion. There was no good reason for it.
The following day at work I was sitting at my work area, in the steel and glass tower. I was taking a look at information on the screens from the two satellites we had out in space. We were expecting a new ship today, a Grantsion Zenkian ship. It would be carrying one of the greatest Zenkian soldiers, or so we were told. He would be coming with his superior to have meetings with us. This was part of the Grantsion and Earth army pact.
“There she is. We have contact. Zenkian Grantsion ship is coming in,” Commander Eriks said.
“Receiving communication?” I asked the communications specialist.
“Yes, message coming in. Take a look,” he said.
I looked at the message. It was exactly what I had expected to see.
“Good. Send them a message saying they are confirmed,” I said.
A few minutes later, a dark triangle-shaped ship hovered in front of the tower.
Then Private Martinez ran over to me. "Nicole! Nicole! Commander Eriks needs you in his office. The president needs to talk with you," he said.
"With me?" I said.
"Rush! Go!" he said as he snatched my arm and ran with me the distance to Commander Eriks's office. Commander Eriks held up his hand to me and after that addressed the telephone, which was on speaker.
"Mr. President, I have our information and communication specialist Nicole Plimoc here."
"Hi, Nicole Plimoc. I praise you for your fantastic work. This recent arrival is an important one. I will be coming to the base to meet with these particular Grantsions as well.”
"Yes, Mr. President, and thank you for the compliment. Just doing my job, sir.”
“Nicole, I want you to be the one to meet with these Grantsions. I know there are tensions on the base already between the Earth army soldiers and the Grantsion soldiers and I cannot have that tension with these new arrivals. I want you to stay with them closely and diffuse any tensions,” he said.
“Yes sir, I understand,” I said, excited that I was getting a direct order from the president.
Chapter Two
COMMANDER VYCON DASE
I had been a soldier in the Grantsion regiments for a long time now. I had been on the most hazardous missions. What's more, due to this I was regularly searched out as the soldier that a leader desired next to him, his commander. I was dependably up for a decent test. In any case, when Leader Nizok requested that I go along with him on his most recent and most imperative mission in Grantsion history, I was not ready for what he asked of me. It was a shock because I despised the humans.
"You wished to see me, Leader?" I said as I walked into the hall in the Grantsion village on our planet of Anvin.
"Yes, Commander Vycon Dase. I have recently been requested by the Council to leave on an imperative and hazardous mission. It is an essential mission. Also, we are to leave inside the hour," the Leader said.
"No opportunity to plan. Are we under assault?" I asked exceptionally concerned.
"No, we are not under a
ssault, not on our planet. Be that as it may, there is an invasion of the Waysaw going to happen. This invasion could mean the annihilation of our race the Grantsions," he said.
"I am listening, Leader," I said as I prepared for action.
"It has gone to the consideration of the Council that the Waysaw intend to attack Earth. We don't know whether it will be a hard and fast invasion on the people, or on the resources," the Leader said.
"The Council believes that this report of their invasion to visit Earth is to steal copper. They have been after it for a while now. They were successful a few years before, if you remember.”
“Yes, they built laser weapons with it unlike any we had ever seen. We bombed those weapons,” I said proudly.
“Yes, we destroyed the weapons, but they still have the knowledge to build them again. That is why we must go to Earth and help the humans stop the Waysaw from getting the copper.”
"I see. That bodes well," I said. "So, what are we to do? What is this mission that the Council wishes for us to do? Are we to battle the Waysaw in space and keep them from getting the opportunity to invade Earth?"
