I twist my hands anxiously. It's just Fiadh, and I left. I might not get asked to dance this round which isn't a good sign.

I have seen some males talking on the sideline with comrades. Maybe they are taking a breather and thinking over their first two dances. Maybe they have already narrowed down who they want to fight for. It makes sense number-wise that some of us wouldn't get asked... or does it mean they won't even waste a dance on someone they know they aren't interested in? Or maybe the partner they do want is already dancing. I can feel my chance of getting chosen by an honorable, and prestigious male slipping through my fingers.

I draw in a shaky breath just as someone gives my shoulder a light tap. I turn around fully intending to see Fiadh, but the man standing behind me makes all my thoughts about failure disappear. The breath I was taking leaves my lungs and my cheeks begin to heat up.

"Good evening. I am Lieutenant Modok from Gaimo. Would you honor me with a dance," he

    "I am happy you have been cured... How many children would you like to have one day," I ask as I extend my arm and twirl her. Her elegant body spins beautifully, and when my arm brings her back in, I don't keep her at a respectful distance. I pull her in close, and when her chest meets mine, my world seems to stop. I hold her to me tight, but gentle as I look down into her dark eyes. She is an absolute wonder. Her flawless pale skin and perfect cupid bow have captivated me. Every curve on her body looks delicate and fragile, but there is a fire just behind her dark eyes that I want to dive into. I knew I liked how the females from Earth looked, but I never imagined one of them would call to me so strongly. I guess Nole was correct when he said our instincts would know who was meant to be our mates. "Xiu, a human from Earth," I whisper in absolute wonder. The song ends, and I know my time with her is up, but I plan on being the one to escort her back to her room, so parting wit

    As the song ends, Moor gives me another easy grin and offers me his arm, but before I can take it, Modok appears beside him. "Xiu of Earth, I would be deeply honored if you allowed me to escort you back to your room," Modok says, and Moor seems to straighten his spine. He glances to the other side of the room before looking back at me and I realize he has decided I am not worth the trouble of fighting Modok. He has another female. Our dance together and conversation were nice, but I didn't win him over completely. I bow my head a little toward Moor before wrapping my arm around Modok's elbow. Modok covers my hand with his own and immediately walks away from Moor. "I'm glad he surrendered his claim to you. I would have destroyed him in the tournament," Modok says and the gravelly tone of his voice sends a satisfying chill down my spine. Modok just admitted that he would fight for me. Something no one has done for me not even my Father. Father always provided for me, not for my

    I sit down on the bench and close my eyes. Fighting a bronkark won't be easy, but I promised Xiu. I vowed to win for her, so I will do what I do best. I will move quickly and find openings with my sharp eyesight. I will win before he has the opportunity to land a fight-ending blow. He seems like a simple male. He will most likely start swinging instantly. I only have to dodge and peel apart his defense. I will ensure I get to choose the female I want and we will enjoy the rest of our lives together. "Tilk is good. You are better," Nole says and I open my eyes as my big orange friend takes up the rest of the bench beside me. "Do I look worried," I ask and he smirks. "You look like you are strategizing," Nole says and it's my turn to smirk. Nole and Burk are the brothers I never had. We might look different and our styles might be opposite, but they are my family. They are the people who mean the most to me... until Xiu and I mate that is. Not even my mother, father, or sist

    "Are you ready," Liamee asks as she watches me look over my dress in the mirror. I nod and flash her a quick smile. My dress for today is gorgeous. The flowy material and baby blue color work together wonderfully. The off-the-shoulder straps and the sheer material hanging from them give it a modest touch that I adore. "I feel beautiful. The silhouette is lovely," I say, and Liamee beams before picking up her tablet. "Do you have any questions," she asks sounding eager to provide me with information, but I shake my head. I have researched the fights and I know what I should expect. "It is very brutal to see, but remember, everyone is healed immediately after the fight is over," Liamee says, and I nod. I move away from the mirror and slip on the dainty shoes the recycle machine made. I head for the door and Liamee follows behind me quietly. The silence between us is once again comfortable just like it was when I first arrived at Kea. I will miss seeing her every day when the tour

    My eyes drill into the back of Tilk's head as Nole claps Burk on the back. It's Burk's turn to go out onto the grass to prove to his female he is worthy and I know he will win. Moor is a good fighter, but he isn't good enough and he knows it. The way he has been eyeballing my Commander proves it. He is melancholy already and he hasn't even fought. Burk leaves and Nole glances down at me before smirking. "He won't surrender because you are staring holes into his back," Nole says quietly and I barely look at him before refocusing on my target. I am analyzing every move he makes. Xiu is depending on me and I will prove I'm worthy of it. Nole's ribbing won't shake me. "I'm moving up so I can see the match. You coming," he asks and I shake my head. "Burk won't break a sweat," I say quietly and Nole chuckles before moving to stand just behind Tilk. He watches the match for only a moment before commenting. "Burk's out for blood," he says and I smirk. I knew it. Burk would never insul

    "That's Zarn," Jia says suddenly and I look at her. "Which one," Fiadh says and Jia swallows before answering. "The Makskin. We danced twice," Jia says and I grow curious. Zuri and Fiadh have both had champions approach them after their fights, so maybe this is the male for Jia. I look back at the field and study the burgundy-colored alien with a more critical eye. He is tall and his body is covered in thick muscles, but it's his face that is captivating. His jawline is sharp, and the bridge of his nose is straight. His big eyes draw you in and his lips are a delicious shape. All in all, he is probably the most handsome champion in the tournament. He is facing off with an equally strong-looking Vaal, and I wonder if the pretty male will be able to win. He looks more beautiful than strong even though he is just as fit as the champions. When the crowd's growl cuts off, they both run at each other, looking determined. The Vaal goes for the Makskins' stomach while Zarn punches the

    As we enter the deserted eating hall, I turn around to face Jia, and what I see breaks my heart. Her eyes are saying so much as she looks at me: hope, disappointment, sadness, anger. I don't know if I can help her, but I know she can't go back to her room now. Krystal and Jia's correspondent will try to console Jia with pretty words, but something is telling me that Jia needs my unbiased opinion and statistics now. She needs something concrete to get her through the night not sweet words meant to soothe her hurt feelings. She needs the "bitchy" Xiu to tell her how it really is. She needs something that she can trust to be true. "I don't know what the Makskin said to you during your dances with him and I don't need to know. What I have surmised is that he most likely had a strategy about who he would choose based on whether he won or lost today... What I believe is he chose two females that he liked. You... and the Puelo female. His second, and first choice females. A losing fem

    "Day two of champion-against-champion fights is about to begin. Get your banners in the air and cheer on your favorite champion. First up, we have Lt. Shaan of Cok and Capt. Vipul of Hassin. Please step into the arena," the announcer says and the two of them leave the holding area. I look around at the half-empty space and breathe a sigh of relief. Most of the champions who have already won didn't stay to watch the fights today so the area is more comfortable. Burk and I are here, but only for support. Nole's match is the second one of the day and he is anxious to get it over with. "Vipul," Burk says and Nole folds his arms. "Shaan," he says and I shake my head. "Vipul," I say and Nole shoots me a look before refocusing on the two champions heading for the middle of the arena. "What am I missing," he demands and Burk chuckles. "Vipul is unpredictable and fast. Almost as fast as me. Shaan is all power. He will get outplayed by speed," Burk explains in a low voice, and I nod.

    "Come on, Nole," Jia whispers lowly as the big Bronkark, who came to kiss her hand after his first battle, walks into the arena. The tension on her face mirrors the emotion battling within me. After our talk in the cafeteria, I was scared my prediction of someone else wanting her wouldn't be true, but Nole seemed genuine when he offered her his hand. "He will make this look easy," I whisper and Jia gives me a smile. "Thank you," she whispers back as the Latroot enters the field already on its stomach. Its shifty green eyes look around the area in all different directions and I feel as if I will be sick again. It bares its moldy-looking teeth, and Nole smiles at the creature. He tosses his knife as if the field is a stage rather than an arena and Jia chuckles. "I guess he is enjoying himself," she says and I relax a little. The orange giant does look comfortable out there. The creature begins to run at Nole, and its freaky arms immediately make my horror return. Nole, however, sm

    Burk, Nole, and I haven't fought our beasts yet and the atmosphere in the holding area is tense. All fifty five champions are back today so the place is packed full of angry and determined males. Burk keeps eyeballing Tilk and vice versa. The Cok Commanders keep eyeing Burk, but he hasn't noticed and I keep posturing myself closer to Burk's side just in case someone pops off."He won't catch fire no matter how hard you stare," I mumble, as Burk glares at Tilk again.He snorts and shoulder bumps me to release some tension. "He keeps looking at me," Burk growls as if that clears him of any wrong doing, and Nole chuckles."Modok wiped the ground with him. He is probably embarrassed," Nole says rather loudly and I try not to smirk.Tilk went down even easier than I expected him to, but I don't want to shame the guy. I have no hard feelings toward him. He learned first hand not to disrespect us."Focus on your fight. You are the next one up," I say lowly, and Burk finally peels his off of

    I follow behind Jia and smile at the several audience members who are waving at us. The two-day-long fighting between champions is finally over. Now the fights between the winning champions and the beasts can begin. I sit down and look out at the familiar field. I try not to recall all the blood and blows that have been exchanged in the middle, but some of the more gruesome images come to mind anyway. "We are down to the top twenty-seven champions. Our three-way champion winner Captain Bolis of Vaal, has chosen to fight a Bunte. Will the other 26 champions line up, please," the announcer says, and I hold my breath as the line of winning males come out onto the field. I haven't seen Modok since he beat the Bronkark, and I have missed him. When I spot him my entire body heats up instantly. His bare chest and tight abs are so beautiful. I want to lightly run my fingers over every piece of exposed skin. I want to feel the texture of his hard scales. I want to learn what makes him f
