“You have a good point,” Nox said, nodding. “It is probably best if the Far Box is locked away.”
“That’s what I intend to do with it—though we do have a few scientists who want to study it,” Sylvan remarked. “One in particular—a friend of my Second Brother, Baird—has a special interest in it.”
“Well, as long as he doesn’t start making wishes on it while he flies through a fold in space, he should probably be okay,” Seline remarked. She shifted in her seat. “Um, if that’s all, Commander Sylvan, Nox and I really need to get going.”
“We do?” Nox sent through their link. “I was not aware that we had any pressing engagements for today.”
“The ‘pressing engagement’ I’m thinking of is you pressing me into the mattress and making love to me!” Seline sent back. “Please, Nox—I still have those hormones in my system. I need to get you home and rip your clothes off and ride you hard!”
Nox felt his shaft begin to swell in his trousers—his new mate was sending him all kinds of erotic images through their link. He wasn’t sure if other Kindred could get and send thought pictures from their mates the way he and Seline could—he thought the ability might have something to do with him being part Quix. But it certainly enhanced their communication.
“Er, Seline is correct—we really do need to go,” he told Commander Sylvan.
Sylvan gave the two of them a knowing look.
“I understand. Thank you for coming by the office and enjoy your new relationship.”
“We will, Commander. Thank you!”
Seline had already hopped up and was tugging at Nox’s hand.
The two of them left Commander Sylvan’s office, headed right for Nox’s suite, since it was closest. For a moment, he spared a thought for the Far Box and wondered how—or if—it might affect the Kindred of this universe again. And for that matter, what was going on in the other universe they had visited, where the Kindred were 95% female?
But then Seline sent another naughty thought-picture into his mind and he decided to leave those worries to the Goddess. After all, she watched over all her children, in every universe in the multiverse. Nox was certain that if the Far Box was going to affect anyone, she would direct it.
The question was—who would it affect next?
THE END?
OF COURSE NOT!
There are always more Kindred books to come.
