Reuben couldn't remain there any longer. Whenever his body succumbed to illness, his abilities tended to spiral out of control.With all the self-control he could muster, Reuben rushed back into the building. He had to get Olivia out of there before he acted on his baser instincts.Leaving her behind might have been the safest option, but the thought nagged at him. She didn’t know anyone in this place. Reuben couldn’t abandon her like that.The moment his eyes landed on her, an overwhelming urge to claim her washed over him, intensified by the intoxicating scent that surrounded her.Fighting against the primal need surging within him, he grasped Olivia's hand firmly. “We need to get going, now.” he insisted.“John, I need to see the doctor. We can talk tomorrow.” Reuben managed to say as he hurriedly left the building.“Is everything alright?” Olivia asked, concern lacing her voice as soon as Reuben started the car.Reuben nodded. “I’m just coming down with a slight fever. I’ll drop y

Olivia instantly paled at the mention of Melissa. Her reaction told Reuben all he needed to know—Melissa must have said something to Olivia.Reuben stepped closer to her. "Did... did Melissa say something to you?" he asked, swallowing hard.Olivia's lips parted; she hadn't expected Reuben to bring that up."No," she whispered. "I just... told her about acting alongside you, and I don’t think you wanted her to know. If I caused you any problems. I'm sorry."Olivia's words warmed Reuben's heart. He couldn't remember the last time someone had shown such concern for him."Look at me," Reuben said softly. Olivia slowly followed his command, her eyes wide and innocent. "Melissa would have found out either way." he assured her.Although Olivia still appeared unconvinced, she nodded in understanding."We're getting late. Will you get dressed?" Reuben asked gently.Olivia offered a small smile and nodded. As she climbed the stairs, Reuben found it difficult to resist the temptation to admire h

Reuben packed his car near Melissa's and got out to speak with her.Melissa was hanging on the side of her car. "I'm sure you are here to apologize." she said, dropping her purse into her car through the open window."Melissa," Reuben whispered. "please don't make this difficult for me. We've known each other even before we came here to Earth. You were the only woman in my life for the longest time. I care about you deeply." Reuben stepped closer to her and continued."But I no longer want a relationship with you. The woman I once knew is no longer there; you have changed. I have spoken to you about this multiple times, and you continued to dismiss it." Reuben said, looking Melissa in the eyes."I’ve tried to keep the relationship going for you. I have given you more than a year to try and make it work. I just can’t keep pretending that I want this when I don’t." Reuben concluded.Melissa gripped Reuben's arms and glared at him as though she just wanted to slap him. "You don’t mean th

Reuben found himself captivated by Olivia as she gracefully descended the staircase, her long legs commanding his attention. It took considerable effort to tear his gaze away; the stairs seemed to stretch on interminably, a feeling he had never experienced before.As Olivia approached, Reuben instinctively closed his eyes, his body igniting with a rush of awareness at her proximity. He clenched his jaw, grappling with a wave of lustful thoughts that threatened to overwhelm him.“Are you ready?” Olivia whispered, her voice carrying an inviting tone that further stirred Reuben’s emotions.Once the evening concluded, he would need to make another appointment with the doctor. This reaction to Olivia was not typical, and he sensed that something deeper lay behind it.He couldn't recall anyone on his home planet being so infatuated with a woman. Even his parents, despite their affection, never displayed such overt adoration in his presence.“Yes,” Reuben replied, his voice sounding rough to

Reuben had turned Olivia down yet again, but this time, she understood his reasons. He wasn't the same as her; he was different—much different. How could they ever be compatible when Reuben wasn't even human? There were things about him that Olivia might never grasp fully. Yet, despite this awareness, her body still craved him. Olivia still wanted Reuben. He was the first man with whom she had felt such a profound connection—not even with Jason at school or Jerry, her first boyfriend, who had somehow happened to be human.Olivia knew that just yesterday she had claimed she needed to move on, but today proved to be another battle. Her heart and mind were totally at odds, fighting against the very idea of detachment. It didn't help that Reuben was wearing a black t-shirt, accentuating his muscular arms. Did he even realize the effect he had on her? Who was she kidding? Any color would suit him—he was that undeniably good looking."We have another scene to shoot on set." Reuben informe
