“Um...yes?” I asked, confused.
“He has the equivalent of Vepar blue balls, right now,” Derrial said with a smirk as Corran growled into my neck.
“What does that mean?”
“You’ve just fed on the two of us recently, right?” asked Thane. I nodded.
“Well he’s starting to feel a blood craving. His body is pushing him to be with his mate. You.”
“Oh,” I said, startled. I craned my neck so Corran had access to it more. “Go ahead,” I asked.
Corran growled again, but this one sounded more like a moan.
“I think you better wait until you can do everything,” said Derrial with a chuckle.
“Everything?”
“Sex, pet,” said Thane. “Exchanging blood with your mate is practically a sacred act. You don’t just go biting each other. It’s almost always shared with sex unless the circumstances demand otherwise.”
“Like when we escaped from the house on Earth,” I said, shivering just remembering how terrible it was.
“Exactly.”
“You said mate,” I said slowly to the guys. “You’ve said that before, that we have a bond. What will happen if I don’t win?”
All three of the guys growled. “That won’t happen,” said Derrial darkly.
I said nothing, just continued to look out at Veon through the window.

The mood had lighteneda little bit by the time we landed by the lavender sea that I had seen earlier. Thane and Corran both held my hands while Derrial walked behind me as we headed towards a glittering gold structure that was right on the shore.
“This is gorgeous,” I said, letting go of Thane’s hand and reaching my hand out to touch the outside of the structure. It literally looked like it was built out of gold.
“This is one of our nicest restaurants,” said Derrial, letting out a laugh when an entrance opened right where I had been reaching out to touch and I almost fell through.
“Welcome to Lankardia,” said a as usual, beautiful Vepar woman dressed all in black. “We’re delighted to have you here this evening,” she said, beckoning us forward. I walked inside, gaping like a fish, and wishing that I had worn a more glamorous outfit.
While all the other Vepar structures I had been too had been relatively the same with the exception of the flower colored ones in the capital city, this one could only be described as opulent.
The walls inside were the same sparkling gold material as the outside. There were crystal orbs hanging from the ceiling. Tables seemed to be floating in the air covered by glittering white tablecloths. It was incredible.
“You can close your mouth now,” whispered Corran, nuzzling against me as he had been doing all evening.
“It’s just all so incredible,” I said in an awed voice. I noticed that the other Vepar in the room were staring at us as we walked by. “I wish they would stop staring,” I muttered.
“I don’t,” said Derrial in a proud voice. “We purposely picked this place. It’s where all the elite of Veon dine. We wanted to show off our mate.”
My heart fluttered at that word again...mate. And at the fact that they were proud to be seen with me.
We were led to a different room that only had one table and privacy from the rest of the patrons. The back wall of the room was made up of a glass balcony that overlooked the lavender sea. It was perfection.
The hostess sat us at our table and left, leaving one last longing glance at the three guys who hadn’t paid her any attention. The jealous bitch inside of me was glad about that.
We talked for a little while about little facts about Veon until a male Vepar with black hair and black horns came into the room. “Good evening everyone. Welcome to Lankardia. My name is Rodolphus and I’ll be your server for the evening. The chef has arranged a special tasting menu for you tonight if that is agreeable to you.”
The men nodded, all of them looking pleased.
