and for the first time in years, felt the weight of his
responsibility wearing down his shoulders. Sometimes he wished he literally
could lift it off his body and hand it to someone else. Even
if it was just for a month. Hell, even a week would be nice. During that
time he’d be able to focus on himself, he’d maybe get a life. And yes, a love
life wouldn’t be bad either.
    Easing
back in the chair, he suddenly thought of the pretty doctor. If only his life
wasn’t do damn complicated. He envied regular guys. Ones that
weren’t in charge of the well-being of so many people.
    Christopher’s
foolishness could start a chain reaction that might be hard to stop. He shook
his head. He’d always told everyone the smallest of slipups or not keeping your
guard up, could cost them everything. Humans could catch on to the fact that
aliens lived among them. He could only imagine the panic that would set in.
They’d probably be rounded up, examined, or dissected. He squeezed his eyes
shut, not wanting to think about that scenario.
    He
glanced at his watch. He’d sat for too long. It was time to get to the clinic
and hopefully get the blood back.
     
     
     

Chapter Four
     
      Charlotte pushed her shoulders down under the
bubble adorned water. This was heaven. Aiden’s kiss had been blissful too. She
set her head back on the inflated bath pillow at the base of her neck still
thinking about what had happened in her office, and not just the kiss. Why
would anyone want to steal a dirty tissue unless it was because of the blood on
it? The blood that had
a strange texture and hue . Charlotte lifted her hand and let some
water dribble down from it onto the space between her breasts.   Not that big of a deal because she still had
the vial of the brother’s blood. Being the over thinker that she sometimes was,
and wanting to leave anything to chance, she’d even brought it home with her.
    She
eased her shoulders down farther into the tub and welcomed the warmth of the
water. Retrieving the tissue had obviously been the one and only motive. Damn
shame because on a scale of one to ten, the kiss had rated a high 8. She hadn’t
experience one of those for a long time. She missed having sex too. Hell, she
missed having a man around.
    Closing
her eyes, she did her best to relax because she had another long day ahead of
her tomorrow. First she needed to stop by the hospital and get tests done on
the blood. If there was something wrong with Christopher, it was best they
found out ASAP. Every doctor knew the chances of curing something or stopping
it in its tracks was to catch it sooner rather than later. After a stop at the
hospital, it would onto the clinic, where she’d probably work to around six, or
like tonight, seven-thirty.
    Tonight,
working late had been worth it. The kiss, however brief or motive based, had
been the reward.
    For
one stupid moment, Charlotte wondered what it would be like to make love with Aiden.
She bet he’d be a top notch lover giving her an orgasm in no time flat. Feeling
a pull in her pussy again, her hand slipped under the bubbles, and before she
realized it she was stroking her clit while images of Aiden flashed through her
mind. She could even feel his lips on hers again. Like it was
happening all over again. Her arms around his body. The big muscular, sexy body that reminded her of a big bad
bear. She wasn’t quite why she’d thought of that wild beast.
    Her
legs quivered as she rubbed harder. He was inside her about to thrust her into
paradise. Charlotte whimpered and then accidently slipped underneath the water
as an orgasm took her by surprise.
    She
coughed, trying to get all the soap water out of her mouth. She’d never
experienced a self-inflicted orgasm happen that quickly before. Usually it took
her five or ten minutes of playing with her clit for anything close to seeing
fireworks. Just what effect would Aiden have on her if he was the one doing the
rubbing?
