How is your day going so far? I am glad to see you outside of your suite.' He longed to touch her soft skin. Her dark brown almost black hair was pulled back into a ponytail. Her dark brown eyes seemed so mysterious. Her full luscious lips begged for his kiss. Kitana, she made him hard for her .
She gasped. Leader LarIS, that is…inappropriate .
Kitana , he must have not controlled his thoughts and she must have heard his desire for her. Damn, he was going to have to be more careful around her. He wasn’t used to that. No one else had the ability to connect with him easily enough to pull his thoughts from him. Should he apologize? It was how he really did feel. He wouldn’t be able to lie to her about it because she would be able to read the truth from him.
' You are a beautiful female. How could I not react to being near to you? You intrigue me like no other. I ache to get to know you better.' His breathing changed and he could scent something from her. It was a change in her scent that made the next sound from him, a low rumbling growl.
Lola shivered. She wasn ’t sure if she actually heard the growl or felt the rumbling, but her entire body responded. It was surprising and unwelcome, but not unpleasant. She felt her nipples harden and she was getting wet between her thighs. Oh God, she wanted him. She jerked her head up and looked into his eyes to see if he had heard her thoughts. The way he smiled at her was the answer, he had heard her. Just great .
Their eye contact was broken when LarIS turned to look at something behind Lola. He then frowned. When he looked back at her he spoke out loud and she watched his lickable lips and read his words.
“ Lizzie wants to know if you are ready to go.”
Lola turned to look at her friend who was glaring at the hulking commander as he spoke to her. The commander’s brother, AshOR, was enjoying whatever problem was going on. She got her friend's attention and nodded that she was ready to leave. She looked back at LarIS. He was watching her intently.
“ I hope to see you at Evening Meal.” LarIS bowed and made his way off the training area. Commander TylOR walked along side of him and AshOR.
That is one sexy man. Lola couldn’t help but think.
' Thank you. You are quite sexy yourself,' LarIS’s voice vibrated within her mind.
Lizzie touched her arm to get her attention. “ Are you ready to go?”
“ Yes.” Lola signed.
*****
“So, what was that all about with you and Leader LarIS?” Lizzie asked, signing her question when they got back to their suite.
Lola blushed , signing her answer, “I don’t know what you mean.”
“ Come on, you two were throwing off some major heat. You guys were talking mind-to-mind right?”
“ Yes.”
“ I heard he could do that. Is it weird to hear him in your head.”
“ Yeah, a little bit.”
“ It looked sexy as hell the way you two stared at one another.”
Lola wanted to deflect the attention off her. “ What about you and Commander TylOR.”
This time Lizzie turned red. “ I," she paused in signing, "…don’t know what you mean.”
“ It looked like you two were having a heated argument.”
“ It was nothing. The man seems to think he’s in charge of me. He’s bossy and stubborn.”
Lola smiled. “ He’s also sexy.”
“ Fine, he is sex on a damn stick okay. But he is not the boss of me. I prefer someone more…manageable.”
“ Like AshOR?” It had not missed Lola’s attention the younger brother flirted outrageously with Lizzie.
Lizzie sig hed before signing, “He’s everything that TylOR isn’t.”
“ So what’s wrong with AshOR?”
“ He’s nothing like TylOR.”
Lola was grateful she didn ’t have a problem like Lizzie. She was torn between two men who wanted her—brothers. She changed the subject.
“ So we’re going to start our training with Lt. Daniels tomorrow.”
“ Yes.
