Frag. He wanted to kiss her. She was brave and protective of her friends.

“I won’t harm any of the beings here.” He paused. “Unless they attempt to harm you.”

“They would never do that.” Her brown eyes flashed.

“Then I would never harm them.” He slowed to a stop in front of her.

Her gaze met his. “I could shoot you now.” Her fingers tightened around the handles of her guns.

“You could attempt to shoot me now.” And he might allow her to shoot him. In a non-lethal spot. Because that would please her.

He very much wanted to please her.

“All you want to know is where the Invaders lurk?” She looked up at him.

Drift wanted to process much more than that. He desired to hear everything about her—her favorite color, her dreams, how she’d built that sweet mounted transport she flew. He breathed deeply. Was she as wet for him as her scent implied she was?

But he would start with the Invaders’ location. He suspected the Invaders were their shared enemy—the Humanoid Alliance.

“The cyborg council has charged me with finding the source of the pulsing sound and uncovering if the Humanoid Alliance has a presence on your planet.” He relayed that truth to her. “That’s all the intel they require.”

“I’m agreeing to show you the Humanoid Alliance has a presence on our planet and that’s it.” His female converted her weapons back into tools and then slid them into their holsters. “Their presence here isn’t a secret. Your supposed enemy has seized control of the terrain, and they seek to ensure everyone is aware of that. That’s information every being on Cancri B knows.” Her eyes glittered with defiance.

His female didn’t trust him not to betray her. That was her communication.

Earning her trust would be a challenge.

Drift grinned.

He liked challenges.

CHAPTER SIX

Trust the male with gray eyes.

Roshini hadn’t uncovered the identity of the female who had uttered that advice. No one else had seen her, and she didn’t know what that being’s agenda was.

She certainly didn’t trust her or her advice.

Roshini also didn’t trust the cyborg.

At all.

He might have the gray eyes the floating female seemed to revere. He might be wildly handsome with his perfect gray skin, jet-black hair, and constantly laughing lips.

And yeah, he might turn her on. The male was extremely large and muscular and sported a voice that curled her boot-covered toes.

Any female would be attracted to him, and she was no exception.

She hadn’t felt so much desire for a being…ever.

But, judging by the extensive arsenal he carried around on his form, and by the way he moved, he was a warrior, and warriors fought. That’s what they did.

He certainly wasn’t fighting for the Cancris. She would have heard about that.

If he wasn’t fighting on her side, he could be fighting for the other side.

The cyborg could betray her and her friends.
