Free Galactic Treasure (Quads of Galafrax) by Angela Castle Page B

fix, apart from that droid.”
    Tev aimed a glare at the smirking Zay. Why by ice plains would he even think of having a sex droid now, when they had the warm, beautiful Ruby? He turned his attention back to her.
    “I can replicate a fake one, until we can remove it all together.”
    He felt her heave a sigh, and needing to comfort her, he pulled her in tight. “Don’t worry, princess, not long until we get rid of it for good. At least the Ambassador won’t be able to harm you again.”
    “So I still have to play at being a nice pet to fish face a little while longer?” She met his gaze.
    Tev shifted. It was hard to move with his rod tenting his pants and aching like frozen rocks. But there was no way he was going to let her go now he had her in his arms.
    She scrambled up, but he kept one hand around hers as he rose to his feet. “If you can bear it a little longer, soon our contract with the Ambassador will be over.”
    “Sure, I guess it could be worse.” She is so brave, so wonderful and now, theirs.
    “That’s our girl.” He leaned down, loving the feel of her soft lips on his. He loved the soft feel of her body against his, soon he would…
    No, get yourself under control . First he would remove the damn collar, then, he would love her until she screamed in pleasure for him as she had for his brother. Only then, would he sink his rod into her, revel in her womanly heat.
    It took all his self -control not to just toss her down on the floor and take her. No, she deserved so much better than that.
    “I need to go deal with a few things.” Ruby glanced over at Zay as he spoke. “Take care of our female.”
    Despite how annoying his brother could be at times, they were all of one mind when it came to something they felt deeply about. Within just a few cycles, Ruby had already become the centre of their lives.
    Zay’s lust filled gaze swept over her once more before he turned, exiting the maintenance bay.
    Happy to have time alone with her, his grin widened, as wonderfully wicked things swept though his mind. Wasting no more time, he bent and swept her up into his arms.
    “Hey.” She hooked her arms around his neck; he liked her weight in his arms, not heavy at all, her softness pillowed against him. By the ice plains, she felt good.
    “It’s my turn now.”
    Her nose flared as she snorted. “I’m going to lose the use of my legs if you guys keep carrying me around like this.”
    “We do it because it brings us immense pleasure. Would you deny us that?”
    She tilted her head to the side, in contemplation. “No, I guess not.” She giggled and waved her hand as to direct. “Carry away, Mr. Tev.”
    Such music, her laughter, he wanted to hear more of it.
    “As my little human commands.”
    “Humm, I like the sound of that.”
    She tilted her head, and he stared down into her pretty blue eyes, as he carried her out of the maintenance bay, and through the corridors. He’d never felt so at home than with her in his arms, there was no way he was ever going to let her go.

    “Oh god, that feels so good.” Ruby rubbed her neck, the cool air blowing free around her skin again. She eyed the collar in Tev’s hand with disgust.
    He was studying the mechanism as she sat on a bench, her pale legs dangling off the ground. She watched him walk across the room and set the collar in the centre of a polished white table criss-crossed with grid lines. He turned, walked back over and held out his hand.
    “Right wrist.”
    Gladly, she placed her wrist into his hand, and his fingers curled around her pale flesh, turning it. He ran a gold pen-like device over the seal, and it clicked open. The gold bracelet fell into Tev’s palm. Her pale skin had been rubbed raw from the chafing of the bands.
    “I’m going to kill him.”
    Startled by the menace behind his tone, she glanced up at his face. A dark cloud of rage shadowed Tev’s normally handsome features, and for a brief moment he scared her.
    All fear
