Quote by Ruby Dixon

“Can I have a kiss for luck, then?” He tilts his head, surprised. “Kiss? I don’t know what you mean.” “Do your people not kiss? Mouth on mouth?” Jutari’s eyes gleam with interest. “I think it would violate several hygiene laws on many planets.” “Oh.” I’m disappointed to hear that. “But I will kiss you.” He glances around and then picks up another sapling. “Not here, though. When we’re alone for the first time, I’ll put my mouth on yours.” I’ve never heard anything more romantic.”

“(...) More humans will make this place a lot prettier than looking at these ugly faces.” He gestures at the rest of us. To my surprise, Cat scowls at Kivian. “Quit saying that. Tarekh’s not ugly.” I’m torn between astonishment and wanting to squeeze the small human against my chest. Such an ardent defender. “I’m lucky to have someone so fierce on my side,” I tell her, pleased.”

“You’ll never lose me as a friend, Cat. I promise.” His voice is warm, slightly rough, but so good I want to use it as a blanket and wrap myself in it. “I’m here if you want me. I’m here if you don’t. I’m here if you change your mind about all of this and just want a buddy. And I’m here if you want more. There’s no pressure.”

“Thank you for not making that weird.” “Weird?” She shrugs. “You know. About my past. I wasn’t sure how you would feel being with me, knowing what I’ve been through. Who I’ve been with.” I caress her head, stroking her hair back from her face. “None of that is who you are. Who you are is this person here. The one with me now. The fierce little human who does what she must to survive and spits in the face of danger. I love her. I loved her since I met her.”

“If my khui resonates for someone else? I will not let it.” He grins, utterly confident. “My heart is for you and you alone.” “That’s not how it works, Aehako.” “That is how it will work for me,” he says, ever stubborn. “And if your khui should resonate for another, I will send you to his arms with gladness for your happiness.”

“Human men give the woman they want to mate a very special gift.” “Oh?” He sits up taller. I nod authoritatively. “A replica of his penis made out of leather or wood, or bone. So she can try him out and see if she likes what he brings to the table.” You’re welcome, Kira. Instead of looking shocked, Aehako ponders this. “I do have a nice cock.”
