The World of Beasts: She's Got Their Hearts novel Chapter 33

Analise thought it was better to keep her distance from Vera. She figured she'd just message Vera later—say something urgent came up and she couldn't make it. Easy enough.

"Thank you, Ms. Chambers. You're truly too kind," Jay said, standing and thanking Analise enthusiastically, cutting off whatever it was Scott had been about to say.

Since Analise's pocket drive hadn't arrived yet, she stored her things in Scott's.

Finlay's pocket drive had been destroyed by the Vexoth on the day Analise first arrived. His replacement was still in production, too, so all his stuff went into Scott's pocket drive as well.

"Just leave me one bag of the Astral Ambers. Give two bags to the other females in the alliance. Give the rest of it to the males," Analise said to Scott as he gathered the Astral Ambers.

Scott had planned to give all the Astral Ambers to her. As far as he was concerned, helping Karl Hansen reclaim power was worth the alliance alone. The resources were just a bonus.

"Astral Ambers are rare. You should keep more for yourself," he said with a smile.

"Rare or not, it's still a consumable. Males use a lot of mental energy protecting us. They need the Ambers, too," Analise replied seriously.

Scott sighed and handed two bags to the housekeeper with instructions to distribute them among Stormclaw's females based on their mental power levels. The rest would be given to the males as needed, either as rewards or for recovery.

Once they boarded the Interstellar Starship, Analise lit up like a curious kid. Everything on board fascinated her. That was until the starship launched.

Her mind went blank as it felt like she was sitting in a crashing elevator. Her whole body swayed, and she was barely able to stay upright in the starship. Her stomach lurched, and her chest felt tight, like she couldn't breathe.

Finlay and Scott began to panic when they saw how pale Analise's face was.

Scott moved first, catching her just before she collapsed. He figured the starship's acceleration must have been too much for her, even though he'd already set it to the lowest speed possible.
