“It’s so nice to have you guys back for a while,” Alexis says.

I smile. “It’s good to be back.” I glance around at the usual clearing we tend to gather in when we’re all together. Someone has thrown a few blankets on the grass, and I feel more relaxed than I have in days.

Beth bounced in place, clapping her hands, when I told her we’d be staying here for a couple of nights. Then she rushed off to find Zarix so she could let him know their mating could go ahead.

“Typical Beth.” Ivy grins at me. “She doesn’t care about organizing a feast or dancing; all she cares about is that we’re all together.”

“I know. Obviously when God was giving out sweetness, he skipped Nevada and gave it all to Beth.”

Nevada grins at me as she gently sways with Danica in her arms. “That’s okay. The Big Guy gave me a mean right hook.”

I laugh.

I’ve pushed aside all thoughts of betraying Arix. Instead, I’m focusing on being in the present moment. Soon we’ll go take a look at the ship, but for now, I’m going to enjoy spending time with Nevada, Ellie, Ivy, and the others. All the other women who I landed here with are going to stay on Agron. They’ve all found their happily ever afters.

Jealousy wraps itself around my neck and squeezes like a boa constrictor. For a second, I can’t breathe, but I force myself to push it away. Each and every one of my friends fought for her happiness. And I refuse to begrudge them a single joyful moment.

None of us mention the ship that Sarissa, Alexis, Kate, Clara, and I are about to visit. Instead, we talk about inconsequential things. Danica’s sleep habits. Charlie’s morning sickness. Beth’s mating ceremony. Zoey proudly shows off the ring Tagiz had made for her, blushing as she tells us they’ve decided to combine their mating ceremony with an Earth wedding for something that will be uniquely theirs. Alexis murmurs that she and Dexar are trying for a baby.

“It makes no sense in the middle of a war, but I know he’ll keep us safe. Life is short, and Dexar insists he wants a bunch of kids.”

I laugh at that. “And you?”

She grins. “We’ll see how I deal with the first one.”

I reach out and squeeze her hand. “I’m so happy for you.”

“I know. Thank you.”

Someone brings out a watered-down version of noptri, and anyone who’s not nursing or pregnant has a few cups. Before long, the men join us, bringing more food, and the party continues as day turns into night and tribe members come and go.

It seems as if the actual negotiations have finished, and the males seem much more relaxed, most of them drinking noptri. And unlike ours, their noptri isn’t watered down. Even Korzyn has a cup in his hand, and some of the tension seems to have disappeared from his face.

Sarissa stares at him like she’s never seen him before, and he raises his cup as if toasting her, his gaze burning into hers as he takes a sip.
