1 " We can’t do this,” I tell her, caressing her cheek with my thumb. “It’s not right.” “What’s not right about it? We haven’t even gotten to the tongues yet.” Tongues? Have mercy. "

2 " I am many things, but an exhibitionist is not one of them.” He gestures at a recess down the hall that I’m starting to recognize as a ship door. “This is where our mess is. Come. You can eat and I can tell you all about how I won’t touch you without your permission.” “You keep adding that ‘your permission’ thing,” I point out. He glances down at me, and his eyes are warm, his smile inviting. “That is because, my sweet Fran, I plan on having your permission. Just not today. "

3 " It’s a spur? Your males don’t have one?” “What’s it for?” “Nothing, I imagine. It’s just there, like my tail. Maybe it had a use in the past, but now it’s just here to frighten sweet human females away from putting their mouths on mesakkah males. "

5 " You could ask me my name,” she says calmly. “That’d be a start.”

I’m utterly chagrined that we haven’t asked about herself, but I try to cover it. “What, you mean FuckYou isn’t your true name? I’m shocked. "

6 " I can’t imagine a society where you can’t even kiss the person you love,” she tells me, studying the table in front of us.

“Kiss?”

“A meeting of mouths. It’s a show of affection amongst humans.”

“Care to demonstrate?” I give her my best lazy grin, though my heart is pounding at the thought of her putting her plump lips against mine. Sanitary laws be keffed, I want to taste her.

But all she says is, “I’d hate to break your hygiene laws.”

“I’m a pirate, my sweet. Breaking laws is what I do. Don’t let that dissuade you from your goal. "
