NovelEnglishShe had tried to go into a mine and the women did chase her away then. That made sense to both of us, the women were territorial about the mines. Nu-reeh had toldthat much.
I was dying to find out something, though.
“What did you dip your wing tips into?” I asked touching the razor sharp spears now at the end of her wing sections.
“Well, I don’t know the word in this Language, but on Earth you would have called it ‘lava’, I think,” Hannah said Looking thoughtful. “You never saw Lava yourself, but this remindedof the way the television showed it.”

“Who knows,” Hannah shrugged and I smiled.
In sways she was so human. In other ways she was so Paterian. I hoped the mix would serve her well.
Looking around I saw Hannah and I were in an enclosed, deserted section of cave. I asked quietly what Nu-reeh had wanted when she sentaway. Hannah’s eyes got wide and she looked forward and back. She pulledto kneel beside her and whispered in my ear in English.
“Nu-reeh does not know you are aware she can control the men,” she said. “I have been trying to do it and it upset her. She toldto stop trying. Nu-reeh said when I have my own men I will control them, the way she can control hers. When I get my own men, she said she would givethe implant and teach me.”
I gasped and Looked at Hannah, she shook her head and whispered in my ear again.
“She askedif you knew, Mama, and I said you didn’t. I don’t think she wants you to know, okay?”
“An implant?” I asked curiously.
“She said it makes her thought commands to them stronger,” Hannah said.

We heard men coming toward us and talons from the other direction. I stood up and took Hannah’s hand. We walked briskly toward our dwelling.
As we walked Hannah toldwe shouldn’t talk about it. I agreed and squeezed her hand. This must be our secret.
My men were anxiously waiting for us when we got back. Word had been sent we would miss dinner, so they had been instructed to bring food back for me.
“We are glad you are back,” Christof sighed pullinginto a hug. Hannah had long been trained not to fuss when we showed each other affection, but she still hated it. As my men greeted me, she sat on a chaise watching them with angry eyes. I wondered as I often did if every female hated men this much.
“Hungry, Mama,” she said reaching for me.
It was one of her favorite tricks to keepaway from my men. She knew they couldn’t touch her, so she took her t‘feeding’ to keepaway from them. Unfortunately, I was hungry, too.
“Christof can you move that tray over here?” I sighed settling on the chaise as Hannah crawled over me.
