Chapter Six

Waking fully clothed in her own bed was a little odd because she didn’t remember how she got there.

Iara sat up, looked at the rumpled pillow on the other side of her bed and shrugged, stomping up to the dressing table. With a groan, she unravelled her hair and brushed it before removing her suit and hanging it in the cleaner.

Naked, she walked to the lav and stopped short when Lock emerged looking clean and refreshed.

He froze in place, his gaze roaming over her from foot to the long waves of her hair. “Good morning, Iara.”

She squeaked, pushed past him and closed the door to the lav.

Her heart was pounding, and she stepped into the shower. She felt marginally more alert after her one indulgence washed over her. An honest-to-goodness wet shower was her sole request of the Citadel. The water ran over her and woke her in a way that no sonic or gel could manage. Her life on the Kozue warship had not included such luxuries, and on Saroo, she had enjoyed them for their difference from what she had grown up with. Now, the shower not only roused her but it also was a reminder of a time when she had first found her soul and revelled in it.

It was a lot to ask of a shower, but it had never disappointed her.

She let her hand glide over the hidden panel, and it swung open to display her collection of body gels and shampoos. She went to work on her hair and then followed up with a brisk scrubbing of the rest of her body.

Iara turned off the taps with a sigh and wrapped her hair in one towel and her body in another. It was time to face Lock, she had no choice, he was next to her clean clothing after all.

She tucked her towel around her tightly and left the safety of the lav. She blinked in surprise to see him fluffing her pillows and draping them precisely on her bed. Iara headed for her closet and slid the door open, picking out one of her standard ivory suits.

“Why is there nothing but white in that closet?”

She gave him an arch look over her shoulder. “Because it is my closet and not yours.”

Iara stepped behind a screen and tossed her towel over the top. She slipped into the bodysuit and smoothed the closures with a practiced hand. When she was dressed, she stepped out and took the towel to the cleaner, whipping her long-stay suit out of the unit, and when she had exchanged the two items, she returned the thicker suit to her go-bag.

He sat on her couch and looked at her. “Seriously, I have never seen another Kozue wearing white.”

She heard a knock on her door and opened it, smiling at Tether and taking the tray of food from him. “Thanks for this, Tether.”

He winked with his third eye and bowed. “Enjoy your morning. Master Lovey is waiting for her answer.”

He disappeared without another word.
