Prime Building. There were fifty in all. Twenty of them were on AshOR’s transport and thirty were on his transport. He went with his security liaisons to interrogate them, person to person. Fifteen hours, fifteen people interrogated, he still had not found one person out of place. They still had fifteen more to interrogate. He was leaving TenON to do the last fifteen interviews.
They were going to be arriving in a couple of hours into the Kiljorn solar system and he wanted to check on Elizabeth. She must be furious with him for leaving her on her own and not checking in with her. They had things they needed to discuss.
He headed to his quarters. He frowned when he didn’t see one of the guards he assigned to Elizabeth outside his quarters. He opened the door and entered. She wasn’t there. He looked at his clock, it was too early for the next meal. Where was she?
He hit his comm link, “Lieutenant DugER, report your location.”
“Sir, I am standing guard outside of Miss Connell’s sleeping quarters.”
“I am on my way.” TylOR left his quarters moving with long strides. He had this overwhelming need to get to his mate. He knew she was safe and being guarded, but this feeling he had was like…like he was going into protective mode. The only time this would happen is if it involved a true bond mate. A bond mate was a blessing from the Goddess KatieRI, one he would treasure.
The guard outside of Elizabeth’s door stood at full attention as TylOR approached. “Commander TylOR, there have been no problems.”
“Very good. You are dismissed for the next few hours. I will need you and Lieutenant LoEK to resume guarding my mate when we reach the Kiljorn Solar System.”
“Yes, sir.” The lieutenant turned and left. TylOR didn’t bother knocking, he used his commander’s override access to enter Elizabeth’s quarters.

TylOR entered her sleeping quarters and found her sleeping in nothing but her underclothing. The sheet had been kicked off her baring her smooth legs. He could not resist temptation. He had to touch her again.
He stripped his uniform off. Then he bent down and crawled up the bed slowly. Taking in her scent. A scent he changed when he marked her. He growled in pleasure at knowing other males will stay away now that he marked her as his. But she might not like it. He just needed time to convince her otherwise.
He knew she wasn’t fully awake but her body responded to his touch. As he climbed over her body he pushed the silky fabric up her lovely legs. He frowned at finding her mound covered with another material. Why do the Earth females wear underclothing? It gets in the way. He lowered his head and inhaled her sweet scent. Oh Goddess help him. She tore away all his self-control.
Lizzie moaned and stretched her body upwards toward the large hands kneading her breasts. What a lovely dream. She hoped she didn’t wake up anytime soon. Especially since there was a hot mouth suckling her nipple.
“Oh yes,” she moaned with pleasure. She pictured TylOR above her. His large naked body hovering over her, not pressing down too hard. The friction between their bodies lightly touching sent goose bumps all over her body.
He rolled her nipple around with his tongue. Then he took her peak between his teeth and tugged. It brought a slight twinge of pain and pleasure shooting straight down to her pussy. It was enough to wake Elizabeth fully.
“TylOR!”
He growled around the nipple in his mouth as he ripped her panties from her body. He did not understand these underclothes the Earth females wore. It seemed cumbersome to him. He wanted easier access to her body.
“Mine,” he growled.
He released her nipple with reluctance and trailed kisses up her chest to her neck. He took time to nibble her there. She was sensitive there and moaned at his soft bites. His fingers rubbed her mound eliciting her juices. His thumb teasing her clit. It filled him with pride and lust to know he could make
