found that he was very pleased with the thought. He had considered taking her to one of the guest quarters to sleep but couldn’t stand the idea of her sleeping anywhere else but in their bed. He wanted her scent on their sheets and he wanted her to snuggle into their pillows and blankets to find peace and rest.
    His mind drifted to thoughts of her pale skin and wondered if she’d be that color all over, or if her core was a darker shade of pink. He immediately felt blood rush to his cock and had to force himself to focus on the scans on the screens. There was a chance that she was the key they’d been searching the galaxy for, and his race couldn’t wait around while he had erotic fantasies about the softest skin he’d ever touched.

    Not long later, Kor got back to the shuttle and worked quickly to depart. The shuttle departed the space-port and followed the course that would rendezvous with the Adastra.
    He’d had some worries about leaving his ship in the hands of his second-in-command, Simdon, but the male was eager to prove himself and Kor needed to give him his chance. Now, another challenge had presented itself. The little Earther that he and Ty had purchased.
    It was estimated that the Arathians had about another 100 years before they went extinct. Unless, of course, they were successful in their hunt for a compatible species. Since no one was allowed to interact with Earthers on their planet, they had never been tested for compatibility. In a way, Kor and Ty had been very fortunate that there were no rules against buying them from auctions on other planets.
    And the money he had spent? She had been very expensive, but the government would almost certainly support his decision to take advantage of the opportunity.
    Potential extinction was not the only reason he hadn’t hesitated to buy the Earther. There had been something about her standing on that stage, looking more frightened than any female he’d ever seen, that had driven him. Something deep inside of him had rebelled at the very thought of her fear. The truth was that he would have paid double what he had to take her away from there, and he knew that Ty would have agreed.
    As the shuttle left Vox’s atmosphere, Kor thought about the three-day journey to meet the Adastra. It was plenty of time for Ty to go over her scans. He thought about how lucky he was to have such an esteemed mate as Ty.
    Ty was the leader in the field of Arathian genetics, and together they had been traveling through the galaxy testing every species they could find to discover a solution that would save their race. He couldn’t even imagine what his life would be like without the easygoing male. The years of being mates had been the happiest of his life, but he couldn’t help but feel like there was something missing in their lives. He had thought it was because they had spent so much time away from their home-world, but he was beginning to think it was something else.
    He had a sudden urge to see his mate.
    Kor quickly walked to the Medical Center and found Ty engrossed with whatever was on the vid-screen in front of him. Data flashed by and Ty seemed to be processing everything as quickly as he could.
    Ty spoke without looking up. “Did you come to see if I had results? I only scanned her a few minutes ago and haven’t been able to go over everything yet.”
    “Actually I came to see you,” Kor said as he moved to stand against Ty’s back and bring his arms around Ty’s chest to bring them closer together.
    Ty stilled for a moment but Kor knew that as much as Ty was dedicated to his work, he could never say no to his mate.
    “You came to see me? Did you bring me something? Maybe a present?” Ty asked as he pressed the firm swells of his ass against Kor’s erection, causing it to ride his crease.
    All Kor managed was a grunt before Ty spun around in his hold and pressed their mouths together in a demanding kiss. Kor took over the kiss by lacing his
