“No. Only when in Fever.”
“So, this is the only time you can make a kid?”
“Until the Fever comes again, yes.”
“How often does it come?”
“Every few standard years or so. It can vary.”
“Huh.” She stroked his arm. “How are you feeling now?”
“Incredible. You?”
“Pretty damn good,” she said.

“You are particularly wicked,” Phares said, staring at Jana.
“No, I’m not. I just wanted to get your lunch ready for work, since you’re going back today.” She finished making him a sandwich on blue grass bread.
“Naked?”
“I thought you said you liked it when I walked around like this.”
He pinned her against the kitchen counter. “Oh, I do,” he said, pressing his hips against her. He leaned down and kissed her neck. “But I have to return to my team.”
“They can wait a few minutes,” she said.
He unfastened his pants, and she wrapped her hip around him.
In a moment, he’d penetrated her, and she reached orgasm quickly. He followed quickly, and the two of them stood there, just holding each other for a moment.
“I swear, I think your Fever rubbed off on me.”
He chuckled. “I am not complaining if it did. Are you?”
“No.” She grinned at him. “But I would be quite happy just staying here and satisfying those urges all day.”
“We have done that the last three days.”
“I know. If I had told myself a month ago, that I would be this insatiable, I would have said I was crazed.”
“I hope I am better than your sex toy.”
She laughed. “That sex toy can stay back on Earth. I don’t need it anymore.”
He smiled and kissed her. “I do have to go. You’ll have to be by yourself for the day.”
“Sort of. Agot invited me over later, so we might do something.”
“Well, that should keep you occupied for at least a little while.
“Yeah. Not as well as you do, though.”
“I don’t want anyone to keep you as occupied as I do.”
She smiled. “I’m going to go wash off, okay?”
