Excerpt

""He looks so damn innocent. What DID he find out? What the hell could I have revealed to a touch telepath while I made love to him? Calm down, James T., panic won't get you anywhere and you had better be far away fast. Kirk grabbed his tunic and pants, hastily pulling them on. You don't know that he read you. You don't even know for sure that Romulans are telepaths. He might not be a Romulan, could be a Vulcan. Sure! Tell that one to High Command. Jim unlocked the door and checked the hall before making his way as unobtrusively as possible to the changing cubicles. I feel like a thief. Espionage 101. Sorry, sirs. I thought I was screwing a Vulcan, wasn't my fault I gave my libido free rein. Doctor's orders you know. You see, sir, I have this thing about my first officer ...RIGHT!! SPOCK!! I've been down here for HOURS!! I can't face him now!!"

Reactions and Reviews

I love it. A furious Vulcan, going after what he wants, not afraid to take the first step and demand an answer.
