Chapter 14: Sammie

Taking clothes off had been easy. Putting them back on was a challenge, even with the new ability to move his hands on my body.

This whole mate bond thing was hella confusing. The other ladies had explained the process to me. It was unpredictable, and everyone had a slightly different experience. Sometimes the couple was stuck together only for a few hours, others, for days. Some hunters got the ability to move one hand at a time, while others didn’t.

I didn’t have the bandwidth to figure out our clothing situation, not while I was still up on cloud nine. l just dried us off the best I could, wrapped a towel over my head, and we ran back to our room naked with our clothes clutched in my hands. No one saw us, but it was exhilarating nonetheless.

I’d gotten brave in the shower and let my curiosity run. The truth in my words had surprised me. I wasn’t ready for forever, but I was ready to explore—more than ready. I was starved of affection and physical touch, and with his hands stuck around me, I felt safe, like I was in control.

When he finally did get the upper hand, it had been to take care of me and my need.

We’d only been back in our room for a few minutes when there was a knock at the door.

“We’re not dressed,” I called out. “We can’t figure out how to.”

Yvette’s laughter came through the door. “I don’t need to see Drak’l’s naked ass. One hunter’s enough. I come bearing gifts from Aaron. We figured instead of telling you everything we’d just show you. I’ll leave it at the door. Talk to you soon.”

I cracked the door open after she left and found a phone on the ground. She’d called it a gift. Did that mean I got to keep it? Moments later, it rang, and Yvette’s avatar flashed on the screen. I picked up the call.

“Just use the phone like normal. You’re connected to the Xarc’n network, and they have the old internet on there. It charges anytime it's close enough to a Xarc’n shuttle. I saved a few special pages for you to visit. If you have any questions, this is my number. Feel free to text or call.”

I didn’t even know how to react. Just a week ago, I was using a chamberpot. Cell phones had been a long-forgotten thing of the past. Now, I’d just had a hot shower, and I was holding a cell phone.

“Thank you.”

“The phone is yours. There’s only one rule here. You must take a photo of yourself and use it as your avatar. It’ll update for everyone that has your number. Got it?”

“Got it.” I had just the photo for the job.

I spent the next few hours learning about the post-bug world. Drak’l came along with me, adding his own comments and twist to events. Yvette had a page where she collected dozens upon dozens of stories, names redacted, of course.
