Chapter Thirteen

KIRA

They divided the exercise areas into several rooms and locations. Kira reserved a smaller pool made for private lessons, so they’d be alone for the experience. Shorts for Quinn weren’t a problem to get out of the storage, and she sent him off to change as she dipped a toe into the warmed water.

Universally, it was unusually strange when creatures enjoyed being submerged in water when they weren’t from water planets. The concept more of a human one, that others had warmed to. The salt-water concoction made it easier to float, but wasn’t dense enough that one couldn’t sink if they wanted to.

Kira stood at the shallow end. The floor went from completely level with the walk in to about ten feet deep on the far side in a range of twenty feet. The width was closer to twelve feet. Barely letting it touch her, she waited patiently, watching the changing area for Quinn.

Emerging, the man was white as a ghost all over. His angular body formed from lifting himself through small crevices and holding heavy machinery in place. His paleness made him look like someone who’d spent his entire life in space, only ever getting UV from the station’s bulbs. The only other feature she felt herself staring at was his tattoo, directly over his heart. A bar code, underneath a string of letters and numbers.
