Emerging from the bathroom post-purge was difficult, not because she felt sick, but because she knew there were no more defenses where Rake was concerned. He’d seen her at her most vulnerable, performed an enema and removed a tracker. He’d seen her come within minutes of their first meeting and he’d seen her cry from remorse at having disobeyed him. It seemed like their whole association was just her either breaking down or leaking fluids or sometimes both.

“How are you feeling?”

“Good,” she said.

“I made you this,” he said, handing her a length of hard plastic pipe with a round plastic top. “You can use it as a cane.”

“Better than you using it as a cane, I guess,” she said, not quite meeting his gaze. It was going to take some time to get over this.

“There’s some good news,” Rake said. “While you were sweating it out, we stayed Vonyak free. It’s been almost ten hours and there’s no sign of them at all. We’ve never lasted this long before. I think we lost them.”

“That’s the first piece of good news I’ve heard in years,” Lyra agreed. “It might actually be the only good news I’ve heard in years, actually.”

Rake put his arms around her and pulled her into a gentle hug. “We’re on our way, baby,” he smiled down at her. “Next stop, Vlertigon-4.”
