CHAPTER TEN
Olrun fucked the nuts and bolts off her cyborg three more times.
They rested between rounds. She slept. He retrieved a power booster from one of his holsters and reenergized that way.
And then they fucked again.
She had come countless times, and she shouldâve been sated. Her muscles were sore. Her body was weary.
Yet the craving for him returned. And the bubbling inside her spread.
âI have to overcome this.â She rolled off her cyborg onto the vegetation-covered ground beside him and stared up at the blue sky.
âWhy do you have to overcome this?â He clasped her hand.
She should pull her fingers away from him. But his touch eased some of the tension building inside her. âValkyries donât form attachments to non-Valkyries. Even purely sexual ones.â
And she wasnât certain their connection was one of those.
âOther humanoids and humans die. Death can beâ¦difficult to deal with.â He spoke as though he knew that feeling only too well.
âIt is damn difficult to deal with.â The prospect of her daughter Jane dying made her a bit wild. âBut thatâs not the only reason for that rule.â She was well aware he had a natural unlimited lifespan also. âAttachments make it more difficult to extract the right level of justice for a wrong. In our situation, Iâm less likely to hack off all your limbsâ¦even though you deserve that pain.â
âI deserve pain because Iâm representing the cyborgs, and one of my kind stole your dagger from the Humanoid Alliance.â Intrepid summed up the situation without her having to outline everything.
He was an impressively intelligent being.
âAnd youâve already killed the Humanoid Alliance beings, extracting the right level of justice for the original theft.â He shared that very wrong assumption with her.
âI havenât done that yet.â She would end their lifespans. With much pain. Her lips curled upward. They had tried to kill her daughter and were the beings responsible for Jane losing her legs.
They were the beings mostly responsible. Guilt jabbed Olrun. She bore some responsibility for Janeâs injuries also. She hadnât protected her fragile human daughter very well.
âI wanted to retrieve my dagger first.â That sounded like a bovine-shit excuse to her own ears. âAnd I had planned to transport my daughter to a safe location before I waged war on the Humanoid Alliance.â
âYou have your dagger.â Her cyborg waved in the direction of the weapon with his free hand. âAnd thereâs no safer place in the universe for your daughter than where she is right now. My crew would protect her. Argot would trade his lifespan for hers.â
According to Intrepid, his friend liked Jane as much as Jane liked him. And cyborgs didnât lie. If he believed his crew would protect her daughter, they would do that.
Jane might get over her obsession with the Argot being if she spent more time talking with him. She wouldnât be tempted to leave the safety of the Sanctuary to communicate with him.
âAnd you would wait here for me to return and hack your limbs off?â She lifted her eyebrows.
