Waking was a shock. The air was cool and her body was stiff in on the gel bed. Another series of medics were bustling around her, but the shock was Kyron standing next to her with a look of concentration on his face.

The medics stood back while the stiffness left her muscles and she managed a weak smile. “Hello, Kyron.”

He stroked her cheek, but the medics gathered around him, bustling him onto a gurney and down the hall.

To Sno’s surprise, she was trundled down the same hall and given a room in the Edinar quarters. Daily testing for traces of plague would make up most of her interaction with others, but in the meantime, she was able to catch up on the news she had missed and the progress of the monitor program.

Nearly forty Edinar had been woken, and several of them had found mates in the Horalthian population. That gave Sno an idea.

Crossing her fingers, she used codes that she had acquired a year earlier, and she checked in on the matches of Edinar to their monitors.

A knock on her door brought her out of her plotting. “Come in.”

Kyron took up the doorway. “Why haven’t you been coming to the common room?”

“I am under quarantine until they can harvest enough antibodies for any infected monitors. They want me where they can find me.”

He scowled. “That is grossly unfair. Come with me.”

She sighed and took his hand, letting him tug her out of her chamber.

They went to the common room, and he pulled her against him with easy familiarity. “What do you think we should do next?”

“I was thinking that we need to get some more of your people together with my people, but we need to do in it such a way that they don’t suspect they are being set up.”

“Fine with me. What do you need?”

“I need monitor-patient reports. There is a peculiar spike in ours and I believe that it is a confirmation of our compatibility. Our minds seemed designed for each other.”

“I would have to agree there. What is the difficulty?”

“I don’t have authorization to see those reports. That doesn’t mean I didn’t see them, mind you, it just means I can’t publicly comment on it.”

He kissed her quickly. “I love your deviousness. Now, what do you need to make this happen?”

“We need a high-ranking Edinar to insist on thanking the monitors. That will let us get them all in the same room together. You are going to have to manage that. I am not allowed to hang around with Edinar other than you.”

Near her quarters an alarm sounded. “And now they know I am missing.”

She sighed. “Have him pick something a few months away and a neutral location. Something representing the stars.”

Sno remained reclining on Kyron until her medics came and politely asked him to relinquish her. Sno went back to her quarters and remained there for a week. When she was finally discharged for an extended leave, Kyron was in his place at the head of a medical centre.
