tars in the night sky steadily brightened, the ship already into the upper atmosphere within a minute. A few seconds later, what color there was in a Terran night had drained fully away, subsiding to the deep black of the interstellar star field. The G forces reduced dramatically, leaving Rose a panting, trembling mess in her chair. Sweat beaded on her forehead, her lips quivering. "That was... awful." Then her face went distinctly ashen, and her eyes flew open. "Oh my fucking God... I think I'm going to throw up!" "Relax now, it's just freefall. The grav generator will kick on in a moment." He found the way her long, red locks floated about her face to be almost magical, a lovely, haunting sight he knew he'd never forget.

He'd have to think on it some more. There was still some time while Meloran was still on the surface. Humans were not at all unknown to the average Yaanfahri, and stories of Yaanfahri-human congress did circulate around both the academy and within the ranks of the navy itself. He'd never actually met a Yaanfahri who'd managed to smuggle in a human, but it was an open secret that at least a few of them were indeed held clandestinely in Yaanfahri hands. One did not need an excess of imagination to know the purpose of keeping human females. Especially during hi
