“Stop insulting my galaxy. And Earth. And me, for that matter,” she growled.
Didn’t she grasp he had to? It was the only way to keep fighting her allure. A battle he might soon lose.
Her nude body remained imprinted in his mind. Made him desire her even more than before. A desire he had to fight. She asked if he was capable of empathy. Caring.
The answer was yes, but only for a select few. His crew. A few remaining family members.
And suddenly this woman. He’d known her only the shortest of time, most of it with her annoying him. Yet there was something about her that drew nonetheless. Her verbal fortitude. Her steamin’ body. And her unwillingness to cower despite everything thrown at her.
“It’s not an insult if it’s the truth. Your galaxy is ill positioned. The only thing of worth in it is your planet, and you are well on your way to ruining it.”
“We’re trying to do something about the pollution,” she huffed.
“Pollution isn’t what will kill your world.” He shook his head. “You will.” While she’d slept—longer than expected under the effects of the stunning he’d given—Jwls had finally taken a moment to study Earth and the humans inhabiting it a bit more. Curious as to what kind of creature he’d brought on board.
She continued to waste air. “Are you saying you think we’re close to a third world war?”
“War might actually slow down what will happen. Famine. You are consuming faster than your planet can renew. Things need time to break down. Reform.”
“What do you suggest we do?”
“Cull the majority of your population and make each citizen responsible for their own sustenance.”
“Not everyone is a farmer.”
“But that’s the point. Everyone should be,” he insisted. “It took a long time before my people understood. Before we listened to our planet.”
“Are you saying the cyborgs killed people off—”
“And restricted birth until the planet recovered.”
“That sounds—”
“Wildly logical and yet it took a long time for my people to accept.” Many Siyborgh ancestors balked at being told not only how many children they could birth but if they could. Only the most physically viable were chosen. Many traits died out
“Couldn’t you have just traded with other planets instead?”
“This happened before our true ascension into the universal order. And before the first gears were found. There were few other planets capable of providing back then. Our galaxy a seemingly impossibly big place.”
“But you muddled through and came out better in the end. I’m sure the people on Earth will too.”
Doubtful considering what he’d seen. “The fate of your people does not concern me. I’m fatigued. Not all of us got to scream and get carried around during the battle and then nap during the escape.”
“I did not nap, you zapped me. And are you implying I’m heavy?” She planted her hands on her hips. Anger sparked in her gaze.
Heat sparked him all over. “You are useless in a fight.”
“Yup.” She didn’t even deny it.
“I’m going to sleep.” Before he lost control and kissed her sassing lips.
