chest.”I feel it in my very soul.”
     
    “It’s dangerous,” he said. “You can’t go playing cop when you aren’t one.”
     
    “I applied for the FBI,” she said. ”I’m close to getting in. I should have stayed on that path in the first place.” A sudden pain ripped down her spine and then blasted into her neck. “Oh god.” She sat up and held her nape. “Ah. Ouch. Something is biting me, Kel.” She turned around and grabbed her hair, feeling panic rise inside her. ”Get it off. Get it off my neck.”  
     
    He brushed aside her hair and kissed her neck, then tried to pull her against his body.  
     
    “Kel!” she shouted. “Stop. Get it off. What is it?” she demanded, rotating to face him and shoving her hair out of her eyes. She was appalled to discover he was smiling.   “You’re smiling at my pain?”
     
    “No, I-”
     
    “You’re grinning now!” She scooted off the bed away from him. “I can’t believe you would laugh at this. It hurts.” Only, the pain was fading and she barely felt anything now. Still – he was smiling. Her gaze found the bathroom and she ran for it, uncaring of her nudity. Kel knew her body. He was about to know her wrath, too.
     
    She used the mirror of the medicine cabinet beside the sink to try and see her neck, but she couldn’t get her hair out of the way. Kel appeared in front of her, looking sexy as sin, and damn him for making her notice. She was furious with him, even though the pain was completely gone.
     
    He framed her body with his and there was no missing returned arousal, but as her gaze lifted she gasped, the now absent pain in her neck, forgotten.  
     
    “Your eyes are black. Oh God. So very black. What’s wrong? Were you bitten too?”  
     
    His lips curved, those dark dark eyes dancing with mischief. “It’s part of the GTECH change.”
     
    “Why are you smiling again?”
     
    “I’m not. Okay, maybe I am. I’ll explain after you look at your neck.” He lifted her hair. It took her a moment to tear her gaze from the deep, dark depths of his stare, only to gasp again at what she found in the mirror.  
     
    She touched the double circle etched into her skin with a intricate woven design around the edges, as if someone had taken great time and caution to tattoo her. “How is this possible? Was it when I was passed out?”
     
    “No. I wouldn’t let that happen.” He framed her face with his hands. “It’s a lifebond circle. GTECHs are another race, Sonia. We are faster and stronger than humans. We are immune to human illness. We do not age and we heal rapidly. Some of us have other abilities as well. And we can only reproduce with one female, in one season of the year. If the two people are meant to bond, it happens after the first act of sex.”
     
    He was speaking another language, making no sense. Or she was dreaming and kept convincing herself she wasn’t. “This isn’t our first time having sex, though.”
     
    “It’s the first time since I   fully transitioned,” he said. “The lifebonding process didn’t develop until we began to evolve as GTECHs. And by the way, I can mask the color of my eyes to anyone but you, my lifebond.”
     
    She was stunned and confused. All this talk of GTECHs felt unreal, but yet he wasn’t. Kel not only felt very real but being with him made her feel complete in a way she’d never thought she would again. “Lifebond,” she repeated, trying to get her mind around the word and the idea it represented.
     
    “A biological mating,” he explained. “Marriage of the bodies. And that’s why I was smiling when your neck hurt, because I knew what it was. ” He lowered his head, brushing his lips over hers. “It means you belong to me and I belong to you and nothing but death can take that from us. And now, unless you have a problem with it, I’m going to make love to my lifebond.”  
     
    There was something she could understand and embrace and embrace it she would.
