Chaetdorian Mates Series


Many centuries ago, the planet Chaetdor was destroyed and the survivors of that planet set out on a mission to find themselves a new home. Earth was never part of the plan; a primitive world with little technology and a sun that was harmful to the Chaetdorian body. When there was a fault with the ship they had no choice but to land on the foreign planet and hope that they could fix the problem quickly so they could continue on their journey.
But that didnit happen. The fault was far worse than they had first thought and caused them to crash during landing, seriously damaging their vessel. With the lack of technology on Earth at that time they were stuck, having no choice but to hide their craft and adapt in order to survive.
There were just two problems. One, they were highly sensitive to the earth's sun, meaning that they could only venture out at night. And two, in order to maintain a humanoid appearance they needed to consume human blood. Stories of large, handsome, pale men with fangs soon spread, and the myth of the vampire was born.

Now it's time for them to leave… if only it was that simple.

Xandr's Prize #5



Snippet

(Unedited WIP. Please forgive any grammar and bad spelling)

Xandr, like all others of his kind, had waited for this day. The day that their ship was fully repaired and they could begin preparations to leave Earth. It had been a long time coming, centuries in fact. But finally, that day had arrived.
Now he and a team of others had been sent to an abandoned warehouse to meet and transport a group of human that had volunteered to join them on their escape from Earth… at a price.
The Chaetdorian race had the ability to physically change their form by consuming the blood of other races. It was how they had remained hidden from the human world so successfully. There were a few trusted members of the human race that knew, of course, and it was those that had been given the opportunity to travel with them. Due to the length of time they had been dependent on human blood in order to blend in, they now needed to wean themselves off it, otherwise the side effects were less than pleasant. That was where their human travel companions came in.
Gazing over the group of human males and females, Xandr was once again grateful that he had never been dependant on their blood. There had been a time or two when he had needed to alter his appearance -  hide his markings and dark eyes – but he had never had to maintain the changes. Though, in truth he was always hiding his markings… one of them at least.
“What has put that frown upon your face?” Mandy asked as she sauntered towards him, her hips swinging provocatively.
“Nothing of importance.”
“Well whatever it is, I don’t like it.” Going up on her tiptoes she leaned over, pressing her breasts against his arm as she whispered, “How about we sneak off somewhere and I can make it all better?”
If only that was possible. He and Mandy had been together for a little over a year and while she was not his true mate she helped keep the loneliness at bay… helped keep him sane. Still, he had a job to do. And no matter how hard she had him in that moment, he could not abandon his mission.
“Maybe later. Now go and gather your things, the shuttles will be here shortly.”
“Spoilsport,” she said, quickly glancing around to make sure no one was watching them before she planted a warm kiss upon his cheek. “Love you.”
He wanted to say the words back, to tell her what she wanted to hear, but he could not lie to her. Every Chaetdorian male had one mate, one perfect partner out there in the universe made just for them… and Mandy was not his. He knew that. She knew that. But still Mandy had fallen in love with him.
An hour later and they were ready to go… almost.
“Fourteen of the humans are accounted for and ready to depart,” Xandr said as Torq, the leader of the Slayer tribe approached, an unconscious human female in his red marked arms. Hearing shouts coming from the alley, he asked, “Something happen back there?”
“Nothing of importance. You said only fourteen of the humans were here, where is the last?”
“I have no clue.” Mandy had yet to return from collecting her bags from where she had left them and her friends among the other humans didn’t seem to know where she was. He had no idea what was taking her so long, but then again, it was Mandy. She was terrible at time keeping. Xandr had lost count of the number of times she was late in meeting him. “The twins are searching the building now to find her.”
“Her?”
“Yes, Mandy’s the one that has gone walkabout.”
“Find her,” Torq growled. Obviously he was in a rush to leave, and judging by the sudden silence that descended in the alley behind the warehouse there was good reason for it. Slayers were the assassins of their kind. It was their job to make sure that their existence stayed secret, and it was a bloody job at times. Some said that was why their markings were as red as blood.
As the Slayer leader departed Xandr went in search of the twins, Jepa and Hecto. Finding them on the second floor he was worried not to find Mandy with them.
“Where is she?”
“No idea.”
It was Jepa that answered, unsurprisingly. Hecto had not spoken to anyone in months. He wasn’t sure why but his continued silence was worrying. If a Chaetdorian male failed to find their mate they would go insane. The madness they called it.
The fact that they had been stranded on Earth for centuries with no one finding a true mate was not good for anyone of them. It wouldn’t be long before the madness consumed one of them, he was sure. He just prayed it would not be his friend.
“Well we can’t wait around forever. She’ll turn up eventually. Let’s get the other humans transported to the ship on schedule and I’ll inform Teks about Mandy.”
“No doubt she’ll surprise all of us and find her own way to the ship.”
He hoped so, because something just did not feel right about all this.
