Chapter 3

Lina's guts clenched. This was Londo's life here. The unforgivable sin of enslaving a being's will versus saving Londo—

Even without her spirit guides shouting at her not to do it, she knew that this was a line she must never cross.

But it was Londo.

**Then tell me how to do it,** he said. **She doesn't know I'm a telepath now. And don't port anything yet besides yourself. They don't seem to know you're a teleporter. Don't give anything away.**

He wouldn't have to consider mind control if she could stop acting like a baby and port out. Lina caught Lon's eye. **Give me a minute and I'll be gone.**

Another searing blast hit her on the front shoulder. It knocked her against her guard. He shook her hard.

“I told you, no funny stuff.” Terry turned to look her full in the face. “So you're the one who finally did it. Sex with Valiant—lucky girl. The power starts going up if you try anything else.”

Terry turned back to Londo and Menlo and the three talked, tension thick in the air. Sometimes Terry laughed and once Londo did. They were sharp, cruel laughs.

Lina's guard surreptitiously squeezed her breast. She squirmed away as he chuckled into her ear. Then he did it again. The man next to them laughed quietly. The one on the opposite side whispered, “Real or fake, Harry?”

A thorough squeeze. “Feels real enough,” Harry hissed back.

She could sense Londo start to object. **Hush, let me try something,** she told him as she squirmed, ordering the white panic back and trying not to shiver.

She disassociated herself from her body as much as she could so she wouldn't be distracted by this man's touch or her scalded flesh. Then she squirmed some more, enough to attract the attention of the other men.

And these were all men; Terry Rhodes didn't seem to be an equal-opportunity employer. Use all that testosterone against them.

Think of home. The soldiers nudged each other now, pointing with their chins in her direction as Harry squeezed and pulled on her. Every new, disgusting touch brought the paralyzing whiteness closer to her and she had to spend precious moments pushing it back. Numb herself some more. Think of home again.

“Dammit, Terry, call him off!” Londo exploded from where he stood. Terry turned curiously as Harry froze.

“Call who off from what? From your little tramp?” Terry asked innocently.

Many of the men smirked at Harry.

Terry set her fists on her hips and surveyed her army. “No one here would want to provoke Valiant into doing something stupid. Don't trust what the TV news shows. Valiant has a short fuse. Everyone pay attention, stay on top alert, and don't make the first move. Got it?”

The smiles of the men vanished and she nodded before she turned back to Londo and Dr. Menlo.

Harry kept his hands pristinely around Lina's waist now, pinning her arms as before. Lina tried to make her communication hit a subconscious level. Plant a suggestion.

**You could feel her up,** she whispered into the back of his mind, hidden from his conscious.
