Remy stared at the twins, annoyed by their thievery and by Max’s reaction. She had no idea what they’d taken, but whatever it was, it had been small enough to fit in Morgan’s hand. Remy’s curiosity was piqued but she wouldn’t ask Max. He had his secrets and she had hers. If they started sharing them, then things would head down a road neither one of them was ready for.

“What was it?”

The twins stood side by side like a pair of silent, skinny, matching bookends. Their blue gazes identical in blankness.

She sucked in a breath and let it out slowly, seeking patience. “Look, I picked you up because your cousin asked me to. You’re not prisoners, but if you’re going to be on this ship, you need to follow the rules.”

At the word cousin, Morgan started and Mason stiffened.

“What cousin?” His deep voice surprised her. The boy wasn’t even shaving yet, but his timbre was that of a man five years older.

“Jean St. Pierre.”

The silence that followed the captain’s name was thicker than the anger she’d felt from Max. The twins looked at each other and then back at her.

“He ain’t our cousin.” Morgan moved a smidge closer to her brother.

“I figured that out when I arrived on Azesus. That doesn’t mean you didn’t need to leave there.” Remy didn’t know how much they knew about their situation or how much she should tell them. Max was right—they would have died, or worse, if they’d stayed any longer on the space station. What probably awaited them in Haverty was the darkest of fates.

“Where are you taking us?” Mason frowned.

“Haverty.”

This time, the girl growled. Remy was glad to hear she had spirit, hadn’t been broken by whatever she’d experienced.

“We ain’t going there.” Mason was the protector of the two. “I don’t rightly care how we do it or what happens, but we ain’t going back there.”

Remy had never heard of the colonized moon until Cooper had mentioned it. Obviously, both Max and the twins had suffered there. She knew about suffering, but not to the extent these children probably did.

Mason ushered his sister in front of him, like a gentleman at a proper dance, and the two of them left the cargo bay.

Remy turned and followed them. It was time to search the database for information on Haverty. Her decision on what to do hadn’t been made, and the kids had just made it more complicated. Particularly since there was evidence they had sticky fingers.

She went to her cabin, intent on digging out what she could about the moon. However, it wasn’t as easy as she’d hoped. After an hour, she’d discovered little to no information about the colony. It had been founded forty years earlier by a man named Coddington, and after ten years of terraforming, the colonists settled on the moon. That much Max had already told her. There weren’t any details on the population or the crops, only the barest minimum.

Frustrated, Remy banged her fist on the tiny desk.
