Throughout the entire day at the tower and all the days that came after, Nawiri "came onto" Terran many times, always brushing past him, sneaking in a playful touch, and throwing in compliments that had Terran blushing all the way to Sunday. It took all his will to resist.
It was not that Terran did not like Nawiri. Instead, it was because he was plagued by all kinds of hang-ups; from matters of his own alien origin and identity confusions, to his pursuit of power and strength for both his family's sake, to his own personal ambitions.
Love is one of those things that the weak hearted understand better than the strong.
Even then, Terran almost could not resist her "moves". And Nawiri was not ignorant of this. She understood full well that her strongest weapon was her precious smile that came with a sensual mind.
Hot and fierce!
She knew it was only a matter of time till this man completely fell for her.
