What kind of job do
you have?
I’m the Sensitive Officer for the spaceship Stargazer. My role on the crew is to get a feeling for
people and animals and even places we encounter in our explorations. The moment Sam and I got stranded on this new
planet, I sensed it had a mind and a purpose for us. That purpose was benevolent, but it took me
days to convince my captain of that.
He’s pretty hard-headed, lol.
Describe yourself in
three words.
Sensitive (obviously), creative, peaceful
Who is your love
interest?
My captain, Sam Mayfair.
He’s my opposite in many ways, but he’s the person the universe has
given to me to love.
Tell us about your
first kiss with Sam.
It was a very odd encounter.
We were sharing a sleeping bag on this new planet, and I had a vision
that Sam and I were having sex even though I could see him sleeping next to me. It felt real, and it was.
List three things
about Sam that turn you on.
His equipment (ahem), his smile, his dedication to his
mission and his crew.
A relaxing bath or a
long, hot shower?
Definitely a bath, although in this story Sam and I share a
very interesting shower.
Would you share the
blurb from your story?
When the landing crew of the Stargazer encounters an
uncharted alien planet, they have no idea how determined the planet is to bring
unlikely couples together.
Sam, the Captain, and his Sensitive Officer, Ilandra, find
themselves separated from the rest of the party, stranded and alone. Neither is
anxious to explore the feelings they've worked so hard to keep hidden, but the
planet's not about to let them hide any more. Strange things begin to appear as
if in answer to their every wish.
Ilandra's fantasies come straight from the novels she reads.
Sam's, on the other hand, are far more of a surprise! With or without their
help, the planet seems determined to make all their desires come true.
How about an excerpt?
Sam appeared at the base of a
nearby tree. With the growing darkness
and his distance from the fire, he appeared more in outline form than fully
human. And he was bigger, his shoulders
broader and his feet parted and hands on his hips. Looking at him made her heart beat
faster. He was the man who commanded the
ship, issuing orders and expecting them to be obeyed without hesitation. But he had a different air to him. Impatience.
No more. Command presence. More even than that. Dominance.
Oh Lord.
“Aren’t you going to say
anything?” he said.
“What should I say?”
He approached, and now the fire
revealed him more clearly. He wasn’t
wearing his uniform but rather all black.
Tight pants showing off the well-defined muscles of his legs and a
billowing shirt parted down the center to expose his chest. Knee-high leather boots, also black,
completed his costume. A pirate, even
without the sword by his side. The man
of her darkest desires.
She’d never told anyone about
her fantasies of being dominated. Her mission
was all about peace and understanding, after all. A lover who’d order her about and demand she
submit couldn’t hurt as long as he remained imaginary, but what if he came
true?
“Don’t say anything,” he
said. “I have other plans for your
mouth, not talking.”
She folded her hands together
and nodded.
“In fact, don’t speak unless I
give you permission,” he said.
Not the exact words from her
fantasy, but the meaning matched. For
the next several minutes, she’d do exactly as he instructed… to the letter… and
he’d reward her with sex so good she’d beg for more.
He walked to the sleeping bag
and stood right on the middle of it. She
wouldn’t question him about getting it dirty with his boots. Any sign of disobedience might lose his approval
and her ultimate reward.
He pointed toward a spot right
in front of him. “On your knees here.”
