Chapter Fifteen

Despite his assurances, Nancy could tell that Kaiyo chafed at the delay. He spent a good deal of time on his communicator making arrangements with regards to his business and their trip. She found herself wandering around the cabin, looking at the changes they had made and feeling unexpectedly nostalgic.

Fortunately, Sendat got back in touch with him only a day later. “No one is looking for her.”

Relief swept over her.

“You’re sure?” Kaiyo asked.

“I’ve seen the records. They indicate that she is deceased.” He hesitated. “I spoke to the overseer you mentioned, Linzim. I’m fairly certain that he is the one who marked her dead. I’m also quite certain he knows it isn’t true.”

“Do you think he intends to do anything further?”

“I don’t think so. He told me he hoped she had gone on to a better life. I told him that I was sure she had.”

After Sendat had signed off, she looked at Kaiyo.

“I don’t understand. Linzim always treated me decently. And the rest of the slaves, for that matter. How does someone like that end up working in such a terrible job?”

“Perhaps he was forced into it,” he said dryly, and she realized he was thinking of his own situation.

“I suppose you’re right. We never know what we might end up being forced to do.”

“You had a line you wouldn’t cross,” he reminded her.

“Did I? If they hadn’t sent us here, if I hadn’t had a chance to escape, I think I would have eventually done anything to get out of the mines.”

The question haunted her.

“As you said, we never know what we might be forced to do. You survived, mafiti. That’s the most important thing.” He pulled her close. “And now we will leave all of this behind.”
