have great sex. Kael s eyes sparkled with his excitement. Your
parents are on their way to Xihirah, Kael informed Saleeya and
smiled down at her.
Really, who sent for them?
182 Ciara Lake
The Xihirian legal representative arranged to have your parents
sent after he heard of our joining. The Kriton government is very
apologetic for what happened to you at the hands of Vitalion and
Manntree. They ve left Vitalion to the mercy of the Council s
determinations and discipline. Your parents don t know anything
about Vitalion or your abduction. They don t know of our joining.
Your parents think they are invited to an important function you
helped organize. They re being transported on a luxury spaceship.
Kael smiled even more brightly. I suppose they presume you ve
performed a magnificent job here and are being rewarded with their
surprise attendance, Kael explained. Actually you ve done a
magnificent job as my mate. I m surely pleased with what you do to
me. Additionally, my feisty mate, you re a most excellent
communicator, Kael quickly added to avoid any quarrel with his
mate. The look on her face was a warning to any wise man. Evidently,
Kael was learning.
Saleeya and Kael checked in on Carlista and the babies. After
saying goodnight, they made their way to their suite. Saleeya was so
tired she could barely make it through her shower. Kael helped her
and dressed her for bed. He held her all night. Saleeya felt safe and
secure.
Xihirah 183
Chapter Fourteen
Seven sunrises passed swiftly. Saleeya had never been so content.
Her days were filled with joy and loving Kael. They returned often to
the pools and made love. Kael was voracious. When he allowed her
time off from their sexual pleasures, Saleeya helped Carlista plan the
babies public blessing and her Joining Ceremony. Mia had remained
on Xihirah to assist and to be Saleeya s honored friend as part of the
Joining Ceremony. Kael had invited her to stay as long as she desired.
Mia fit right in with everyone. At family evening meals, Kael began
to pray to Xian that Mia be granted the gift to transform and be gifted
a loving Xihirian shifter mate to care for her and give her children.
Mia was ambivalent about that requested fate. Saleeya s parents were
due to arrive on Xihirah soon.
Carlista insisted that the females be permitted to go into Ferileson
once before Saleeya s parents arrived. Carlista had stated that she
wanted to buy gowns to greet Saleeya s parents and outfits for the
babies public blessing ceremony. Carlista reminded Kael that he
needed to purchases gifts for Saleeya and Saleeya s parents. He
needed to have them ready to present as tokens of his gratitude for
bestowing their beautiful daughter upon him.
Kael and Kliven reluctantly agreed to the shopping trip. They
decided to accompany the females the next sunrise. The shopping
expedition became a big Xihirian security event. Six military
transports were readied. Sixteen guards were assigned to accompany
the royal family. Kael and Kliven were taking Tomron s continued
threats very seriously. As the shopping excursion approached, Kael
and Kliven became increasingly irritable with the prospect of taking

the females and the children out of the Palace; however, Carlista
prevailed in her demands. Kael and Kliven lectured the females on
safety and protocol regarding stores, dressing rooms, cleaning
chambers, and every possible scenario. Kael threatened to put Saleeya
in the Palace holding cell near to Vitalion s cell if she didn t follow
his exact orders on safety. Carlista assured Saleeya that all of the
overboard security was not a normal occurrence.
Saleeya, don t worry. When they capture and arrest Tomron,
we ll be free to leave the Palace normally. This is only temporary.
Even with all of the guards and our two overprotective mates, we ll
have a wonderful time. Carlista rushed around her rooms getting
herself ready to meet the males in an hour at the Palace s Grand
Entrance. Girls, I have four stores on the agenda for jewelry, gowns
and shoes. Kliven has already informed the stores to be ready for us.
After we shop, I have insisted that our mates take us to Xiferia Eatery.
Thyson, Klayvin, and Veric will try to meet us at Xiferia to eat a meal
with us. It s my favorite restaurant, Carlista excitedly relayed the
agenda to all of the excited females.
The stores were notified to expect seven females, three babies,
Kael, Kliven, three nursery helpers, plus the Palace guards. The
restaurant was told to expect additional royal males to make an
appearance joining their females for a meal.
The flight into Ferileson was smooth. In twenty-five minutes from
leaving the Palace, Saleeya could see the enormous city in the
distance. Ferileson Municipality was the most amazing city she had
ever seen. It was two times larger than Kriton s capital and four times
larger than Earth s Restored New York City, the capital of Earth s
