CHAPTER NINETEEN

GABE

We headed back toward where the shops were. In this section of the ship everything was high end which was exactly what we needed to make these two not stand out more than they already did. Getting Ellie in a dress would be the first step, but the two of them carried themselves in a way that didn’t quite fit with the rest of this cabin. I wasn’t sure if it was because Kausians always seemed to get dizzy and sick on ships or if that was just their normal stride.

Either way, we would have to work on it.

It didn’t take too long for Cor to learn all the tricks, but he’d mentioned he had some training already. By the looks of it, these two did not have the same schooling. People stared as I led them through the corridors and lounge. Soon they wouldn’t even recognize them, so I didn’t have to worry about it too much.

We made it to one of the clothing shops, and I went through the dresses. These were all mass produced, but that would be fine. We didn’t have time for a tailor. I picked out a few different colors—all bold and on the darker side as she didn’t strike me as someone who would wear pastels. After gathering a few, I handed them to Ellie.

“Try these on and make sure they fit. As for what to wear the rest of the time on the ship…” I bit my lip. We didn’t need anything too fancy yet, so I pulled out the most simple one and placed it on top. It was a blue top with some lace with a dark blue-and-black shirt. “Wear this one.”

Ellie rolled her eyes. “Just because I am a woman doesn’t mean I should have to wear a dress or skirt. Why can’t I wear a suit?”

“Have you seen any women around here wearing suits?”

“Well, no…”

“Exactly. We are in a shark tank currently, and if you don’t want to be spotted by anyone, including the Silurians who are after you, then you will wear a skirt.”

She made a loud, audible sigh, and went to the dressing room with no more complaints. At least she listened to reason.

Zach whistled. “I have to hand it to you—you know how to handle her.”

“She’s a smart woman, and smart women listen to reason. It’s as simple as that.”

“Fair enough. She is definitely the smartest woman I have ever known.”

He said that with a bit of a proud voice. It made me smile a little.

“As for you…” I pulled a gray frock coat off a hanger, black dress pants, a blue vest similar to Ellie’s skirt, a white shirt, and a white satin puff tie and handed it all to Zach. “Go try those on.”

He stared for a moment as if he had never seen such fine clothes. He wiped his hands off on his pants and then grabbed them.

“I will be right back then.”

With that, he went into a changing room. I snatched a few more outfits for him.
