Germany
“Our paths shall meet again my friend.” Shifa gave a hug to Constance and a wary nod to the men.
The two ships parted ways. The Black Glove headed to the north, and The Gypsy east to Germany.
That evening when the lights were out, Lilly sank into her bed gratefully. It had been a long day, and she was nearly asleep when her head hit the pillow. Dreams turned soon turned erotic, vague dreams of hands stroking her body, making her body eager for more. In her dream she spread her legs, welcoming the soft kisses and licks. Her eyes fluttered open. It was no dream. Isa was in her bed, stoking the fire deep in Lilly’s core. As she saw the red locks, part of her felt a hint of disappointment, somewhere in that dream had been Penny’s soft brown eyes.
An orgasm that had been building exploded from within her, biting into the pillow to stifle her ecstasy, all thoughts of Penny evaporated.
Snuggling in each other’s arms, Lilly asked, “When was the last time you saw Diego and the others?”
Isadora sighed. “I lost interest in silly spy games after you left. My contact with Diego and the rest soon broke. Three months ago, the queen ordered me to London, to work in the home office. As far as I knew they were still in Spain at the time.”
Lilly sat up, pulling her arms around her chest tightly. “You know you were the one that broke my heart, not the other way around.”
Isadora pulled Lilly back down into the warm blankets, kissing her lips. “I’m sorry I hurt you, Lilly. I should have explained before I went in to infiltrate the Basque. But I had my orders. Did you think I could just tell the queen ‘sorry I can’t do what you ask, my girlfriend wouldn’t approve’?”
Memories of walking in on Isadora making love to a man still hurt, but they both knew that in the job they were expect to do anything to get information. That included sleeping with the enemy.
Lilly let Isadora continue kissing while saying nothing. The queen, just like her parents, would never let her live her life in peace with the woman she loved.
“I’m warming to the idea of a cottage in the middle of nowhere. Spain or Scotland. Just the two of us,” Lilly said.
“Soon as this mission is over, we’ll go shopping for cottages.”
The rest of the night they spoke and slept little.

As they entered into Germany, the skies became grayer, taking on a steely look as clouds covered the sky.
Below, leafless trees stood still. To Lilly it looked like they were huddling for warmth. She shivered in sympathy, and with cold. She missed the sunny skies of Spain.
The Gypsy started her descent onto a large patch of carefully trimmed green awn next to a grey cold lake that reflected a large estate made of more grey stone, peaked roofs and lit-up windows.ing
“Lilly, you will attend me,” Constance said.
“I’m going,” Lord Collin said.
“Me too,” said Lord Barkley.
