Chapter 17

“What’s going on?” Skeeter asked as her eyes flew open to look up at him with dazed, unfocused eyes. She sat up in the chair, pulling her shirt and bra out from under her. She ignored the bra. Her hands were shaking too much to bother with it. Instead, she slid her shirt on and fumbled with the buttons, trying to close the front of it. “I didn’t hit anything. Why are the alarms sounding?”

“It is your security system. There has been a breach,” Krac growled in anger and frustration. “I need to connect to your computer system.”

“I have a security system?” She asked in surprise, watching as he slid into the co-pilot’s chair and pulled a small tablet lying on the console toward him. It lit up the moment he laid his palm over it. A moment later, the freighter’s console lit up with information. “Oh, wow! I didn’t know you could do that.”

Krac turn his head so that Skeeter couldn’t see the effect her words had on him. After what she had just done to him, shared with him, it hurt that she might reject him as she saw him for what he really was… a monster created in a lab.

He pushed his feelings aside, instead focusing on the information pouring in. There was a hull breach in the upper emergency access. He patched into his own starship, using the sensors on it to read the surrounding area. He swore silently when he detected the registration marks of Tillman’s sleek starship.

“Skeeter, what in the....? Oh no, you did not,” Froget stopped mid-sentence, staring at Skeeter’s unevenly button top and the red, lacy bra in her hand. “Really? I leave you alone for twenty minutes and you two act like a couple of horny...”

“Frog!” Skeeter hissed with a warning glance at Violet before turning and redoing the buttons on her top. “Did you know we have a security system?”

“It works?” Froget asked in surprise before a scowl darkened his face. “What is going on?”

“There is a breach in the upper emergency access that connects to Cargo Bay 2,” Krac replied in a monotone as he relayed the information coming in. “There are two males.”

“Is it pirates?” Skeeter asked, pulling Violet protectively closer to her.

“No,” Krac bit out sharply. “It is the men who attacked Kordon and Gracie and took Violet.”

“Skeeter, I’m scared,” Violet whispered, raising her arms up. “I don’t like them. They hurt my daddy.”

Skeeter reached down and picked Violet up in her arms, hugging her close. “It’s okay, baby. We won’t let them get you, will we Krac?”

Krac’s eyes softened as he looked at the scared expression on both Skeeter and Violet’s faces. The thought of anything happening to either one of them caused a deep rage to build inside him. It looked like he was about to be given an opportunity to learn more about what the New Order wanted from Gracie; but first, he needed to make sure Skeeter and Violet were tucked away somewhere safe.
