softly. He liked the sound of her voice. It was soft and husky and made him think of wild things and warm sheets.
    “I am called Zoran.” Zoran said pointing to himself before he picked up the sandwich. He took a sniff of it before taking a bite. His eyes widened as he tasted the blend of spices. It was unlike anything he had ever eaten before, but was very good. He took another bite nodding his head as he chewed.
    Abby smiled again. “Zoran. Welcome to my home.” Abby said softly.
    They spent the next hour trying to communicate. Abby was puzzled how Zoran could understand everything she was saying but she couldn’t understand him. When she asked about it

he pointed to his ears and said a word. Abby finally figured out it was some type of device that translated what she was saying. When she pointed to the gold bands around his wrist and the one around his neck he said something else she couldn’t understand. Abby felt like she was playing a one-sided game of charades. It was very frustrating for her and she felt for him, as he wanted to ask her questions but she didn’t understand what he was asking.
    Bo finally decided it was time to go outside and Abby got up from the table to let him out only to find herself pinned to a broad chest again. Abby looked up into the dark gold eyes wondering what she had gotten herself into. Abby flushed when she saw the dark look of warning in Zoran’s eyes.
    “It’s okay. Bo needs to go outside and I need to check on Gloria. No one else is here. I live alone. Would you like to see where I found you? We still have plenty of daylight if you would like to go up to the meadow where your ship is.” Abby stared up at the man who held her so tightly.
    “ Zi .” Zoran was confused. Why did someone as lovely as Abby live alone? Surely it was too dangerous for her to be left unprotected. Who took care of her? Who made sure she had food and supplies?
    Abby pressed her hands against Zoran’s chest until he loosened his hold on her. Turning, she called out to Bo. Abby opened the door to the cabin, pausing briefly to give him a reassuring smile, before walking outside.
    Zoran gazed around at the lush vegetation surrounding the cabin. He followed Abby over to a small fenced in area watching as she called to a dark brown creature. He watched as Abby held out a small fruit to the creature that swept it out of her hand and crunched on it lazily.
    “This is Gloria. She belongs to my friend Edna. She helped me bring you here from the meadow. She’s such a good girl, aren’t you Gloria? Yes, you are.” Abby murmured as she scratched the creature behind its ear.
    “I’ll show you the meadow first. I’m sure you are worried about your ship. It’s strange but I swear it seems like it is alive. I could feel it responding to me when I touched it. It was worried about you.” Abby flushed as she looked up at Zoran thinking he was going to think she was nuts. “I know that sounds stupid, but it was just a weird feeling I got.”
    Zoran had no way of explaining to Abby that his ship was, indeed, alive and was a part of him. He could feel it every time she would gently stroke the symbiosis on her wrists. It was like she was stroking him. He felt her doing it several times inside her home and she was doing it now as they walked along the path. He shivered as her fingers gently ran back and forth over the gold bracelets. Reaching down, he grabbed her hand preventing her from doing it any longer. If she didn’t stop, he wouldn’t be able to prevent himself from taking her right there on the path. Abby looked up startled but kept her hand in Zoran’s larger one. They walked in a comfortable silence along the path. When they reached the meadow, Zoran released Abby’s hand and marched over to the gold ship murmuring to it as he ran his hand over it. Abby watched in wonder as steps formed on the side and Zoran walked up into the ship. It was like something out of a science fiction movie. Abby stood
