The next morning, I tried to focus on the team meeting as the lead physician of our unit introduced us to the new batch of doctors. They’d been flown in from other parts of Mova to assist in the epidemic relief efforts.

Serenity had left Faysh’s bedside to attend the meeting on direct orders from the lead, although she’d made it clear that she was annoyed and instructed a nurse to remain with Faysh until she returned.

I looked at Serenity as she listened to our boss discuss the action plan now that we had an extra team of doctors on board. She seemed focused, attentive to the conversation, but I was in another headspace entirely, still thinking about the contents of that letter from Tar’Tano.

I still hadn’t told Serenity what he’d said in the letter, and the more I mulled it over, the more I leaned toward not telling her. I just needed to find the right time, when her emotions weren’t on edge—which seemed to be lately—all the time.

I needed time to process it myself and think of a way to prevent the king’s suggestion from turning into an order.

So, after the introductions were made and everyone on the team was given a section of the triage tents to cover for patient treatment, I took an opportunity to slip out while Serenity was distracted.

I returned to my tent to make a private call to Prime Minister Unchu.

It took some run around and a few transfers, but I finally got through to him.

“What can I do for you, Norq?” He asked, a hint of curiosity in his voice.

“Are we talking on a secure line?” I asked.

He paused, suspicion coating his voice. “Yes, why?”

I cleared my throat and glanced outside my tent to make sure no one was listening nearby. “I have a sensitive subject matter to discuss with you.”

“Such as?”

“We have another problem with King Tar’Tano,” I said.

Unchu sucked in a deep breath through his teeth. “I was afraid we hadn’t seen the last of him. What’s the problem?”

“Well, first of all, I’d like to personally thank you again for your involvement in returning the human, Serenity Rivera back where she belonged at the triage tents on Base City.” I shifted my weight and added, “unfortunately, I’ve discovered a sugar coated motive from Tar’Tano that pertains to her.”

“What is it?”

I explained to the Prime Minister that I’d received a letter from King Tar’Tano which had been hand delivered from a messenger last night.

“In the letter, the king explained that he’d heard about the problems Ms. Rivera was having with a specific family she was treating, how the pregnant mother is infected and very sick, and how her husband succumbed to the virus and had to be cremated several days ago after his death.”

“How did he know all this?”

“I’d imagine he has spies planted in the area.”

“What does he want with the human doctor?”

I paced the floor. “I’m under the impression that he still has feelings for her and is trying to finagle a way to get to her.
