appearance. In their short acquaintance, she had confided in him, laughed with him, and displayed great emotion. She’d shown strength of character in defending her family and her own life choices, and shown bravery in embracing the unknown by going with him.
    Her unguarded desire as she perused his, Loban’s and Rork’s bodies had been the most gorgeous thing he’d ever witnessed. “Very soon we’re going to explore that passion to the fullest, swaya,” he whispered before standing and leaving his cabin.
    “After searching for so long, the least you could have done was alert us that you’d found her,” Rork commented immediately as Garfor entered the command room.
    “Or, I don’t know, let us have more than a few minutes with her before I had to knock her out,” Loban added.
    Garfor took his seat. “I rescued her, literally, barely an hour ago. My time was better spent getting her to come with me and then getting us off the planet before she changed her mind. How was I to know she’d react so badly to space travel?”
    “I’ve heard tell that Earth women can be quite independent and headstrong, and that a traditional Earth bonding is between one man and one woman,” Rork said.
    “The very reason why we didn’t mind staying on board while you brokered our trades on this planet,” Loban offered.
    “Perhaps this proves that after all our years together it’s time for me to be in charge on land as well as on this ship?” Garfor asked with as much innocence as he could muster.
    “Not hardly.”
    “In your dreams.”
    Rork and Loban stared at him with mock-stern expressions, and his heart swelled with emotion. The three of them had been raised together, served in the military together since reaching the age of majority and were a triad in the way of their people. They were destined to share a woman, their swaya . His pride at being the one who found her and successfully brought her to his mates was boundless.
    “We don’t have a limitless amount of time before Megan wakes up,” Rork noted. “Please tell us what transpired off ship.”
    “I was on my way back here when I saw her. She was standing in the terminal with tears shimmering in her eyes while scores of people on foot and in transports buzzed by, around and almost into her. She was so lost, confused and scared; I couldn’t get to her fast enough.”
    Garfor drew a steadying breath as the memory of the rage he felt at seeing their woman in such a precarious situation replayed. Intellectually, he’d been certain he understood the intensity of the Slaterine mating bond until it happened. He’d recognized her instantly. He knew without a doubt she was destined for him, Rork and Loban, and that she had absolutely no idea. The moment was terrifying, exhilarating and empowering all at the same time.
    “I forcefully removed her from harm’s way. Megan responded immediately to my touch, but it was extremely apparent she was shocked by her reaction. Despite that, she confided her troubles to me. She was victim to unscrupulous business practices by the passenger line, which was booked by her new employer. Her parents died when she was a child, her brothers died valiantly afterward. The man she married betrayed her sexually and robbed her financially.”
    “I’ll enjoy killing him with my bare hands,” Rork uttered at barely above a whisper.
    “You’ll control yourself,” Garfor countered forcefully. “Megan made it abundantly clear her wish is to start a new life.”
    “With us?” Loban asked, skepticism evident in both his tone and expression.
    “I told her I would take her to Somas Prime, the site of her new job.”
    “And then what, we drop her off and go on our merry way? Or do you intend for us to stay there with her?”
    “I said that’s what I told her. It’s not, however, what we’re going to do.”
    “Garfor, do you truly believe the best way to begin our relationship with Megan is with deceit?” Rork asked,
