Chapter Ten
She hoped she wouldn’t be caught, but if she was, she decided that, since it was still during working hours, it was better to be caught wandering in the halls at this time than to wait until the evening. She’d be better able to concoct an excuse for being in an area unassigned to her.
She managed to get to the room where the male prisoner was kept. After leaning against the door for an undetermined amount of time, she finally found the courage to slip inside; holding her breath with the hopes that there was no attendant in with him. As luck would have it, he was alone.
An enormous, and rather loud sigh escaped her lips when she realized she’d pulled it off.
The sound of her sigh caught his immediate attention and he lept off the cot he’d been resting on. His look of shock took her by surprise. She was still dressed in her lab attire, so her presence shouldn’t seem that out of place or unsettling to him. Yet,

They found a fallen tree on the hillside with a hollow beneath it that was large enough to offer them shelter and covering in case someone was looking for them while they rested. Of course, she needed no rest, since she’d been carried the entire ten miles, but he clearly needed time to rejuvenate.“You don’t need to carry me, you know,” she said as she positioned herself next to him in the recesses of the hollow.He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and drew her close. “I don’t want anything to happen to you.”“That’s nice, I guess,” she said uncomfortably.“I have upset you?” he asked with raised brow.“Not at all,” she lied.“I sense you are uncomfortable. Please speak the truth. Why are you upset?” he prodded.She had no idea why she felt so compelled to be honest, but she did. So, she was. “I don’t

His large body lay atop of her in silent horror. What had he done? He knew for a fact that his seed was powerful when it connected with the egg of a human. The odds of him impregnating her were extremely high. What was he to do now? It was too soon for her to have his baby. Far too soon even if she knew the truth about him; which, of course, she didn’t. There were procedures to follow; Manthellan customs to uphold.He cursed himself for allowing things to get out of hand. He’d only intended on a little foreplay for their mutual satisfaction. Entering her wasn’t in the plan. He’d allowed himself to get lost in lust and love. Now, he had to face the consequences.She could feel a change in his body language as he slowly moved off her and pulled his pants back up. His silence was deafening.“I didn’t know I was a virgin,” she said apologetically,

Tristan used the silence in the car to think about what could be done about their situation. He realized too late that he’d acted poorly after sex. He should have consoled her and whispered loving words into her ear. After all, he’d taken her virginity. Instead, he lost himself in worry about impregnating her and paid minimal attention to anything else. He couldn’t even remember holding her in his arms as he ran to the station. His mind was just that pre-occupied.He had a lot to consider. First of all, Chloe was a human from the earth’s surface who thought he was the same. The shock of finding out that he came from inner-earth could be a bit much for her. If she was indeed pregnant, then it was his duty to divulge his DNA lineage to her, which included the fact that he was part human and part beast. He wanted more time to let her get to know him before he sprung something like that on her. At least

Chloe took a deep breath before knocking on Jim’s door. She’d stopped at the pharmacy and picked up the morning after pill. It was her first time using it, so she’d consulted the pharmacist about it and was disappointed to discover that it didn’t guarantee stopping a pregnancy. In fact, if the sperm had already fertilized an egg and the egg had imbedded itself in her uterine wall, the pill was useless. She’d grabbed a Pepsi, washed the pill down with it, and prayed.It was a mere matter of seconds before the door swung open after her soft knock. Jim’s eyes glistened with a mixture of amusement and something else as he stepped aside to allow her entrance.“I’ve been having a fascinating conversation with lover boy,” he said softly as she entered his compact and neatly organized apartment.She was both curious and hesitant to know the topic of this fascinating conversation was.&nbs

“I speak the truth when I say that I am from inner-earth. It is a land filled with beauty and wonder and species that once walked the planet’s surface,” Tristan began.“What? Like, dinosaurs?” Jim asked teasingly.“I fear I have misjudged you,” Tristan grumbled. “I perceived you to be far more open to possibilities than you apparently are.”“Well, you have to admit…” Jim began.“Don’t be an ass and shut up,” Chloe barked while never taking her eyes off Tristan. As much as she wanted to label this man insane right along with Antoh Sudnik and call the police, something inside of her told her to listen to all he had to say with an open mind. Tristan flashed Chloe a smile of gratitude and her heart melted. She had no idea what kind of hold this man had on her, but a hold it was. “Continue, please.”“Inner-earth has

They decided to take Chloe to her aunt’s farm, just outside a small town five hours away. She was Chloe’s mother’s sister who’d lost that close connection years ago when her mother passed away, so it was years since they’d seen each other. They considered the connection between aunt and niece to be so remote that they’d have time to figure out what to do before Antoh Sudnik discovered it if he even did.Jim was glad he’d taken the time to call the office and put them on the alert about Chloe’s escape from the facility prior to going to pick her up and then give them a brief summary of what she’d told him about it later on. While leaving her apartment after collecting a few things, he received a phone call from Marcus’ secretary, Susanne, to tell him that Antoh Sudnik had visited the office on the pretense of wanting to hire their best investigators who handled missing persons cases. He e

The motel room was modest, but clean and tidy. Chloe flopped onto the only bed the room possessed. The mattress was a cheap one, but that was to be expected since the room rental was also quite inexpensive.“I’m exhausted,” she said as she rolled onto her side and looked up at Tristan.“That bed seems small,” he muttered.“It’s a queen size,” she said with hesitation as she assessed whether or not the bed was long enough for someone of his height. “We should both fit on it.”“I thought I would sleep in the chair, to avoid… you know what… happening again,” he said softly.Chloe studied Tristan. She wasn’t sure if she should be hurt by his rejection or flattered by his attempt at chivalry. She glanced at the chair he was referring to.“That chair doesn’t look very sturdy. You’re a pretty big and muscular guy,&rd
Dragon Love Chapter Eighteen
Chloe sat on the edge of the bed in total confusion. First of all, she’d forgotten -or perhaps didn’t even fully believe- that Tristan was only half human. Secondly, she didn’t understand what properties his fluids would have that could raise havoc with her.“What kind of beast? What will happen to me?” she asked worriedly.Tristan scowled. “That is something I am not sure of. I have had no first-hand experience. I have only listened to stories and rumors.”“Stories and rumors?” she said with a hint of hope. “That’s all this could be, then.”Tristan thought for a moment on what to say. He knew it was more than stories and rumors because one of the stories was told to him by his grandfather who just so happened to have had a love affair with a surface human while out on mission. He told Tristan as a warning just days before he left for hi
