Drew could not believe that jerk. She slammed into the cockpit and tossed herself into the chair, already sending out the proper request for takeoff. Even if she hated his attitude, she admitted Korm was one sexy snob. He made her want to beat the shit out of him with her wrench, then turn around and beg him to fuck her. And Ash, she wanted to strip the clothes from him and lick every bit that was exposed. Didn’t she hear somewhere that kith partners did everything together? The thought was enough to make her brain overload. Her pussy shivered at the idea. Two men and enough skin between them to fuck and be fucked. She pressed her palm to her eye. Was she sick, or what?

Kormec didn’t even like her. She didn’t like him, but here she was wondering what it would take to break that control of his, to feel Korm try to dominate her. ‘Cause, yeah, that man would dominate any sexcapade. Pandora, you are cleared for takeoff. Drew started out of her daydream. She glanced at the clock. Was the twenty minutes up already?

Behind her, she heard the whoosh of the door. All her sensors showed the Pandora was locked up tight. “Sit and buckle up,” she ordered, privately thrilled when Korm did just that. A minor miracle to be sure. She almost hesitated, then ran the ignition sequence and felt the hum of the ship coming alive. No hiccups or choking marred the perfection of the vibration in her bones. “We’re out of here.”

The days of manually guiding a vessel were mostly gone and Drew leant back as the ship’s nav computer and the port computer worked together to guide the ship out. For her passengers, she adjusted the opacity of the crystal-view, allowing the full effect as they passed the small sturdy cargo ships like the Pandora, the expensive yachts, and finally the massive beauty of the Starpath. The cruise-ship was designed for both extensive travel and to hold an entire city of people. A small city, but several thousand people at the very least. And Captain Larissa was their queen.

Drew looked up, but did not stop Ash from pressing against the crystal-view. Both awe and sadness were easily readable. Korm, on the other hand, was inscrutable as ever watching the cruise-ship as if it would swoop down on them like a bird of prey. His eyes met hers—whatever shone in the steel colour was lost on her. “She will hunt you down and destroy you if she catches an inkling that you helped us.”

Checking her heading was automatic. Drew’s lip curled just a bit. “She can try.” The Starpath and Celestial VIII station grew smaller behind her. In front, diamonds scattered across the black velvet of space. The sight quieted the agitation that had been growing inside her each day the Pandora was grounded. Fear that she’d never truly see the night sky again. If she were planet-side she could handle not being surrounded by the stars.
