chest. From what he could tell, she’d stopped crying and seemed willing to rest. At the moment, the scent of her fear had faded away. In its place, the alluring smell of his female grew stronger as it wafted up around him.
    Kord lowered his mouth to her neck, seeking to breathe in more of her tantalizing scent. He rooted through her glorious hair until his lips touched soft skin. His mate smelled good enough to eat, and he couldn’t resist taking a sample. Even mixed with the chemical taste, the enticing flavor brought forth a throaty growl from him as he licked and nipped the slender column. Her reaction stunned him.

    The moment he licked her neck, Pam came out of shock. Once he nibbled, she jerked away and struggled against him, hoping he’d release her. His arms tightened around her, but she managed to dig her elbows into his chest and hold them there by using what little strength she had left.
    “What do you think you’re doing?” She gasped.His handsome face was too close, and if she read his expression correctly, he seemed surprised and hurt by her reaction.
    “Sandra safe,” he grumbled.
    “That thing…that Krell tried to rape me,” she stammered. “You killed it?”
    “Yes.” He gave a sharp nod.
    “They aren’t from this planet, are they?” She almost choked when Kord shook his head. Panic threatened to engulf her once more. She managed to whisper, “You’re not from here either?”
    Another shake of his head confirmed any doubts she still harbored. Her first thought was to run away, but he had her trapped on his lap. No escape possible at the moment, and she already knew screaming wasn’t going to help. She might attract more of those Krell things if she made too much noise, and she certainly didn’t want to see Kord’s arms turn into weapons again.
    Despite her rising panic, a comforting realization hit her. He’d never made a move to hurt her. He’d protected her the whole time. Pam tore her attention from him and glanced around at their surroundings. Maybe if she avoided looking at his sexy eyes and lips she could gather her wits. He was too attractive, and she still wanted him in the worst way, even after all that had happened.
    None of that matters right now.
    She had to get control of herself, and find a way to escape from this alien’s clutches so she could check on her friends. Afterward, getting the hell out of town ranked high on her list of things to do. She didn’t even want to think about explaining everything to her family.
    At the moment, they were in a sitting area near an outdoor cantina close to the cruise ship docks. Their bench was one of several hidden from view, all tucked away in a secluded area surrounded by overgrown tropical plants. If people had been walking around, they wouldn’t see her. The place seemed deserted. There were no tourists wandering about, not even a police patrol or dock guards hanging around. An eerie silence permeated the site.
    Where is everyone? The question reminded her of what she needed to do.
    “Kord, please take me to my condo,” she pleaded, looking at him once again. “It’s only a block away. I need to find my friends. They might be there, and they’re probably worried about me.”
    “No! Sandra stay.” The corners of his mouth turned down into a stubborn frown and he jerked her closer.
    The force of the movement jarred her shoulders, sending her elbows sliding outward, and her naked breasts slammed against his hard chest. For a moment, she lost her breath. She struggled to breathe, and finally managed to take in a lungful of air after his hold loosened a fraction. She flattened her palms on his hard chest and pushed with all her might. She gained a scant inch, but it was enough to allow her to look up.
    In an instant, his lips captured hers in an urgent kiss bursting with passion. Pam froze, unsure how to react. He tasted similar to melted chocolate laced with cinnamon and coconut, her favorites. A second
