Excerpt
“Captain, and how are the gravitons are produced?”
His eyes sparkled at her profound question, and he explained the particle physics involved in the process. Something from deep within his consciousness, catching him completely off guard, became magnetically attracted to her vitality, her intellect. They had a common interest in scientific matters. His visceral self was already attracted to her sable-like hair and expressive blue eyes. He couldn’t deny the excitement her presence was kindling within him.
Extinguish it. Now. He warned himself to neutralize his endocrine rush and subdue his quickening heartbeat. This wasn’t the time or the place.

Fortunately, he was able to control his more basic urges and even ignore them if he had to, attributing this talent to his soldier training.
And he was not about to jeopardize the mission of the Subterra Rebel Force, an underground, anti-Delegation organization of which he was secretly a member. He needed to guard his words around Helena. Treason was not looked upon lightly by orphilions who were uninformed--or unwilling to believe the reports--about their government’s corrupt activities.
