Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 9

Lindsey sighed.  “You’ll have to speak better English for me to explain my faith so you can understand, or I’ll have to learn Kalquorian.  The short answer is my beliefs do not stand in the way of having sex with you.”

“Do they speak English?”  The mother looked at Lindsey, and Bacoj realized belatedly he hadn’t greeted her.  He’d been too shaken by the woman’s insubstantial appearance.  She needed feeding, desperately.

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 7

  Lindsey reluctantly got her to her feet.  She pulled her clothes on with genuine regret, and the men did the same.  She couldn’t help but glow as they watched her, their tender gazes an invisible caress.  Even Japohn looked at her with seeming affection.

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 6

Lindsey was amazed at how much she liked sex.  Her mother had classified it as pleasant.  Moderation could have been Tara’s middle name, but her description was well beneath low-key. 

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 5

Japohn’s front penis was the size of a baby’s arm.   A big baby.  Okay, a toddler.  Nervous excitement roiled in Lindsey’s belly.

Peeking through the filthy windshield of an electric car, Lindsey swallowed, her dry throat clicking.  All three aliens were staring in her direction.  She’d been spotted despite her best efforts to remain hidden.

WIP Wednesday - Alien Interludes: The Negotiation

One of my favorite heroines from the Clans of Kalquor series has stuck mostly in the background of the first two books, Alien Embrace and Alien Rule.  I always thought Israla, leader of Plasius, deserved her own story.  She finally gets it.

Bold and commanding, Israla likes things on her own terms.  She chooses young, inexperienced men to find pleasure with ... and there's nothing wrong with that!  But when Colonel Tyler Carter comes to negotiate the fates of some Earther criminals, she finds herself wondering what a man seasoned with a little more age might do for her:

    Everything about the man entranced her.  His exuberant masculinity, not as overwhelming as a Kalquorian’s but much more evident than the thin wispiness of her own kind, had Israla wanting to press her body against his.  She wanted to wallow in his very male scent, its muskiness as intoxicating as the leshella she’d drunk.  It made her wonder how Tyler would taste.
    He was laughing at something she’d said, the gravelly sound rolling pleasantly over her, when the Saucin’s well-documented control disappeared.  She seized his food tray, still half uneaten, and tossed it uncaring to the nearby table where it clattered, sending bits of food across the surface.  Before Tyler could react, Israla clambered onto his lap, straddling his thick thighs with her willowy ones. 

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 3

     Bacoj was out of the ship and down the ramp the instant the main hatch opened.  Japohn’s growl followed him, and the brawny Nobek was on his heels in an instant.
    “Bacoj, you wait until I’ve determined we’re clear!”

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 2

With all government and law enforcement a thing of the past, it was every man for himself.  Survival now depended on one’s ability to defend herself and her supplies.

Lindsey hurried across the roof to the door leading into the building, keeping her gaunt frame huddled in a crouch.  Kalquorians, other Earthers, whatever was out there — she had no intention of advertising the family’s presence to anyone.
