Free Alien Romance: Desired By The Alien Boss: A Scifi Alien Abduction Romance (Alien Romance, Alien Invasion Romance, BBW) (Rusneon Mates Book 2) by Ashley Hunter Page B

her hand became a firm grip, a reassuring squeeze. Not before today, he answered but his surprise shifted to a warm expression. But you are certainly always full of surprises.
    My head feels strange, Andrea expressed as they walked. Is this because of that also?
    Perhaps you are picking up on the Common Link amongst my people, Dom replied. Don’t focus too hard, but it is not unlike how your people communicate in public. It’s an overall murmur… if you can pick up on you, you’ll even be able to listen in to conversations between them.
    Your people do not speak to each other? Andrea asked, gesturing to her throat.
    We do, was Dom’s response. However, it is only with children and other species that do not share our affinity for the mental Link. Generally, we maintain our connection within our minds, it’s much faster that way.
    It certainly was, Andrea understood. The words exchanged between them had been swifter than any regular conversation they had had and they had even included a series of visuals that felt like daydreams in her mind, despite her being alert while they were walking. It was in this way that she felt confident in being able to speak to him while resting her throat.
    Is this normal? How they look at us… they seem to revere you quite a lot.
    Dom chuckled at this but he didn’t respond. Instead when they finally reached a Pod platform—that was so strange how she knew what it was now—they were further welcomed with greater attention and she saw people do motions to Dom that were a little strange but she had an internal idea that it was meant to be supremely polite and only used for those of high ranking.
    So…even Rusneans have ranks.
    We are not as different as you think. Dom replied just as they were escorted toward a beautiful Pod. She saw a man (probably not man but he certainly looked male) approach with a huge smile on his face, making that same motion, a strange touching of his forehead before sweeping his arm towards his feet, before sweeping Dom into a large hug.
    Andrea watched, slightly startled as Dom let out a laugh and returned the embrace. She had believed that hugs were not something Rusneans ever used, and yet no matter how hard she focused she couldn’t quite catch anything said before them. They looked into each other’s eyes and Andrea could see the conversation flashing before their eyes. When Dom looked back at her, the other man did as well.
    Isn’t he something, Andrea? Dom asked and she blinked in confusion, unable to understand what he meant.
    It seemed that they both understood what that meant and after another moment of quick glances that eluded her, the other man spoke.
    “Forgive my rudeness,” he spoke, his voice thick with a foreign accent that was similar to Dom’s, different in its force. “I had believed you could connect through the Link.”
    “It’s alright,” Andrea replied, feeling sheepish yet relieved that they could still communicate. “This is all so new for me.”
    “Do not worry, Regent,” he replied and the title was abrupt and Andrea wasn’t sure what it had to do with her. “But you are certainly an image. I’ve only seen humans from the messages Do’mlarshan had sent to Rusneon and nevertheless you bear a semblance of beauty that is much agreeable.”
    At this, Andrea’s skin flushed, embarrassed. This simple change in composition seemed to alarm the other man, but after a quick exchange of glances with Dom, his alarm faded. I guess we’re still very strange to one another, Andrea mused inwardly.
    “I am Sor’ankyun , but please, call me Soran,” he said, “I am this fool’s younger brother.”
    Dom let out another laugh, “You have not changed at all, m’eyon . Thank you for coming this way to meet with me and my beloved.”
    Andrea felt even more impressed to meet Soran’s look, “You’re Soran?” she asked softly, knowing full well who this was. “It’s a pleasure to meet you. Dom’s talked quite a lot about
