bring me some food. Before I know it, I’ve eaten all of the crackers. I take a drink and think about how that should please Din Tairin. Maybe it won’t be so bad taking care of him.
I sink onto the bed and blow out a frustrated breath. “It’s not like I had a good life anyway.” Hope flares in my chest. Going to a new planet will be my chance to start over. I just hope my new planet is in better shape than Earth.
I grab the sheets when the spacecraft suddenly shudders. My heart races a mile a minute when it does it again. What is happening? Are we going to die? Are other aliens going to board the craft and sell us all? Or kill us all? If our attackers are small, I might be able to kill a few of them. I go over some moves in my head.
With every tremble of the craft, my worry builds and builds. My stomach hurts. Time seems to drag by. After what feels like forever, I notice that the trembling of the craft has stopped.
Joy fills my soul. We didn’t get boarded by mean aliens!
I quickly remember my luck. Listening closely, I sit still for a long while. When I don’t hear any sounds of fighting I release a pent up breath. It’s going to be okay. I wait and wait. Nothing bad happens.
A squeak flies past my lips when I feel like I’m sinking. The bed is fine. It hasn’t moved. I take a breath and hold it. The sinking feeling comes over me again.
When I feel a light tremble of the craft, my heart starts racing again. “Shit, we just landed.”
I squeak again when the door opens. Din Tairin smiles as he walks in. My heart pounds at the sight of his dimples.
He picks of the bag and looks inside. “You did well, seema.”
His praise causes warmth to fill my chest. I look down at the wrinkled sheets on the bed and quickly straighten them. I’m suddenly hit by my vulnerable position. Before, I just wanted to get away from the barpolians and all the scary aliens in the crowd, now I don’t know what to do. I tug on the sheet again.
“Don’t worry about that. One of the port crew will clean the craft.”
I remember why the sheets got so wrinkled. My death grip. “What happened? Why was the ship shaking?”
“We ran into some space debris. Nothing too serious. Now it’s time to go. You have to be checked out by our doctor and then I can take you home.”
“Doctor?” I like the sound of home, but not doctor. They experiment on people. I shake my head. “I don’t need one. I’m fine.” I give him a smile that I hope is convincing.
His gaze hardens as he reaches for my hand. “He won’t hurt you. Now let’s go.”
I don’t like his tone at all. But the current that flows between us when our skin touches has all of my nerve endings heating up.
I look up in time to see the little vents along his nose flutter. He growls lightly and for the first time I realize that he has short fangs.
My safe haven doesn’t look so safe anymore.

Din Tairin leads me out of the room and down the corridor. My stomach lurches when I see a male I haven’t seen before.
Din Treia is talking to him. My nerves jitter when I realize how short I am compared to the others. Flipping fuck. Even the female zaphinian has to be seven feet tall. The closer we get to the other two giants, the smaller I feel.
They are dangerous.
Din Tairin tightens his hand around mine for a second. My heart leaps like an excited puppy. My nerve endings tingle. No, this is not good. Nobody can be loved or trusted. Especially, powerful people. Flipping motherfuckers.
Din Treia looks down and smiles at me before all three of them start talking in a language I don’t understand. Light coming in from the spacecraft door opening reveals blue strands in her black hair. Is that natural? Would a warrior dye their hair? I can’t imagine it. Her gaze captures mine. There is kindness in her three toned eyes. I’m
