“Look, Ash, I’m not saying it is love,” she chuckled. “It’s foolish to say something like that, but I feel something I’ve never felt before with him. It’s like some pull…”
Ashley raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms. “Uh-huh.”
“Don’t give me that!” Dia laughed and shoved her shoulder. “I am not that bad!”
“Whatever you say, Dia, to help you sleep better at night.” Ashley rolled her eyes, disappointed by Dia’s behavior. “I understand. You tried him out, and now you’re hooked on the real thing—alien cock.”
“Whatever, Ash.” She sighed. “Just let him explain everything to you before you judge me.”
Ashley hugged Dia, unable to remain angry at her. “I promise.”
“Promise you will open your heart and give him a chance?”
Ashley pulled away, giving Dia a pointed look as she held her by her shoulders.
“Am I that bad?”
Dia rolled her eyes. “You’re worse than me.”
“Fine,” she agreed, releasing her grip and taking a step back. “Just don’t forget about me after you’ve been stuck in your cabin with him. I’ve been by your side since the beginning, and our passion for the paranormal is what got us here...”
“Are you both okay?” Fybl asked, worried as he stepped closer to Dia.
Dia gave him a bright smile and kissed him on the cheek.
“We’re fine, Fy. Just some girl talk, nothing to worry about.”
“Are you ready to retire for the night or…” He glanced at Ashley. “Do you need to be alone ssssome more with your friend?”
Dia looked at Ashley and gave her a double thumbs up. Ashley returned the gesture with a nod.
“I believe we’re done,” Dia said as she stepped farther into her doorway, with Fybl close behind.
“Hey, Fybl!” Ashley shouted.
Fybl’s ears pinned back as he glanced over his shoulder. “Yes, Asssshley?”
“If you break her heart, I will cut your cock off and feed it to you. There will be no other warning.”
His eyes widened, and he hissed. “There will be no need.”
Ashley smiled. “Good.”
Fybl returned the smile. “May the Stars look over your dreams, Asssshley.”
Ashley sighed, watching as the happy pair’s cabin door slid closed.
“You have a lot of explaining to do, Dildo-Thief.”
“It isssss Xizi,” he grumbled. “Not Dildo-ttthiefff.”
Ashley placed her hand on the scanner, feeling the warmth of the pad as it read her hand, the light glowing green as the door opened. Ashley stepped into the doorway and stopped.
“I’m assuming they weren’t lying and this is also your cabin?”
She sensed Xizi step behind her. “Ifff you will allow it…” he breathed, his tongue tickling the back of her neck.
“Logically, we already had sex, and you already abducted me, and by what the fucking Wonder Twins said, we’re stuck here on this ship until we arrive at some secret base, hidden from everyone. There isn’t anything I can do. I can’t go back to Earth, and I have no means to fight against you.” She glanced over her shoulder and caught him scenting her. “Plus, I have a feeling you don’t want to leave me—even after you explain whatever thisenaxbusiness is.”
