arms over her chest and
waited. “Okay, say what you’ve got to say but it isn’t going to
change my mind,” she said stubbornly.
    Vox took a step closer, crowding her until
she was backed up against the wall. “You will be ready to go when
it is time,” he said with a determined thrust of his chin.
    She was afraid to move her arms because it
would allow him to move even closer to her if she did. She frowned
up at him. She was still mad at him. The big oaf was really too
much! He had the nerve to think she was some kind of intergalactic
spy hired by God-knows-who. He had been prepared to kill her
without a second thought while he was the one sleeping with Spy One
and Spy Two back home! On top of that, she finds out that he and
his friends are a bunch of alien kitty-cat shifters. And the icing
on the cake was him telling everyone he was ‘claiming’ her without
even a take-her-out-to-dinner date!
    Oh hell no, I’m not going anywhere his
furry ass is going. I’m going to find the first trader I can and
kidnap him even if I have to threaten his ass in order to get back
home , Riley thought with determination.
    “No, I won’t. I’ve decided to find me a nice
little trader to kidnap. Once I do, I’ll have him take me home,”
she replied with a stubborn tilt to her chin. “You boys go on and
do your thing. I hope you find whoever it is you plan on killing.
I’m sure you’ll have a wonderful time. Me? I’ve got business back
on Earth to take care of involving a few dead bodies of my own,”
she said with a confident nod.
    Vox’s hands reached out and gripped her hips,
moving them slowly up to her waist. He savored every delectable
inch as he slid his hands across her soft flesh under the purple
top she was wearing. He pulled her closer to him, trapping her
folded arms against his broad chest. He leaned into her, running
his nose up along her neck as she straightened in an effort to get
away from him. His cat purred in delight. Vox groaned, running his
tongue along the slender column.
    Riley shivered as the rough sandpaper of his
tongue ran along her smooth skin. “What do you think you are
doing?” She asked in a strangled voice. “You…. Your chest is
rumbling.”
    “My cat wants you,” Vox whispered against her
neck. “So do I. We’ve both been denied too long,” he growled softly
against her throat, nipping it gently.
    “Ouch,” Riley choked out hoarsely. “Well, go
lick on someone else! I’m not interested.”
    Vox ground his hips against her, pushing his
thick, swollen cock up against her. He slid one hand up to cup her
chin and turned her face until she was forced to look into his
blazing eyes. He studied her for a moment before a slight grin
pulled at the corner of his mouth.
    “Liar,” he murmured. “I can smell your
desire,” he said before pressing his lips to hers in a deep,
passionate kiss.

    Vox had listened with half an ear to Riley,
Bob, and Fred as Titus and Tor worked out how to overtake the
guards in the control room. Adur, the Curizan warrior, and Titus’
brother, Banu, would slip up through a narrow conduit maintenance
tunnel they had discovered months ago and take out the guards in
the control room. Cross, the Valdier warrior, would secure the
arrival bay along with Tor and Lodar. Vox and Titus would secure
the supply ship and prepare it for flight. They would need to do a
fast refuel. Fred was small and fast enough to get through the
tunnels unseen. His father owned a refueling station on one of the
Spaceports. He would take care of the refueling before joining
them. Bob would take care of making sure Riley was protected and
where she was supposed to be. Vox had already warned the huge
Gelatian he better make sure Riley was on the supply ship and in
one piece or he would be coming after him personally.
    When he heard Riley say she wasn’t going to
go with them, he knew he had to convince her there would be no
discussion in this matter. There would be no room for
