Diana

My heart is beating out of my chest. Watching Syn chase, interrogate, and deal with the Drahon was pure poetry. From the way he moved, sinuous and muscular, to the way he didn’t give any quarter.

He is one magnificent male, and he’s brought me right to the door of the one creature in this horrible galaxy who knows where Freya is.

The queen is mine. She will give up my sister if it’s the last thing I do.

Freya will be saved.

The door to the suite is as nondescript as the rest of this area of the space station. There are no guards outside, and it makes my skin prickle with alarm.

Syn puts out a protective arm to stop me walking any further.

“I don’t like this,” he says, his voice quiet. “Not at all.”

“Me neither, but we don’t have much option. Someone’s going to find that Drahon any minute.” I shove Syn into a nearby alcove, walk up to the door, and bang on it.

I’m presuming there are cameras or whatever aliens use to project images. Hopefully, they haven’t seen Syn.

The door dematerializes.

“A human female.” The big lizard answering is showing all his teeth. A hand fires out, grabbing me by the shoulder and digging in claws, making me cry out. “I told you, my queen, she would come to us,” he shouts over his shoulder.

I’m lifted off the ground, the pain firing through me until the air seems to explode. I find myself spinning across a shiny floor, going around and around until I thump into a wall, all the air being expelled from my lungs. Sounds of chaos are all around me, growling and snarling rending the air as I manage to open my eyes.

I watch as Syn slashes his way through three Drahon to reach the queen on a raised dais. Once he’s there, she’s put in a headlock with a laser pistol to her head to hold off the remainder of the Drahon males in the room.

“Diana,” he calls out. “Are you hurt?”

I’ve already mentally checked my body and, other than what are going to be spectacular bruises, I’m okay.

“I’m fine, Syn.” I scramble to my feet and pull the laser pistol from my pocket, the one I took from Syn right before I knocked on the door. “You lot, over there.”

I flick the laser towards the Drahon who are still standing, motioning for them to move across the room and through a door. Once they’re inside, I slam my hand on a similar looking button to the one which operated the forcefield earlier, and as the door rematerializes I fire the laser pistol at it for good measure.

“What are you doing?” Syn calls out.

“Making sure they can’t get out,” I reply.

“Don’t discharge a laser in a space station unless you know exactly where the bolt will go!” he says through gritted teeth. “The last thing we need is a hull breach, or we’re never getting out of here.”

The queen is still in his grasp. She scrabbles at his hands around her neck.
