they’ll let you watch.”
    “If she’s still living after they are done, maybe they’ll give her to me and I can exact my own vengeance on her for GerAL.”
    “I’ll help you with that vengeance. She’s got an attractive body.”
    Her relief at not being abused would be short lived if these two had anything to say about it. She had to find a way to free herself. She just needed an opportunity. She felt herself being lowered and then bright lights made her squint. She was being taken underground, but instead of the dim lighting she expected, she found it was well lit. Where the hell was she?

    StrykER walked into the small medic room and felt eyes following him. He was not fully accepted yet. They were watching his every move. He moved forward and did his best not to glance over at the female bound to the hard table. She had a sheet over her and she was shaking. Everything male in him demanded that he free her and protect her. If he did that right now, both of them would be dead in seconds. He had to bide his time until he could get the information that he needed. Then he would find a way to free the female.
    He pretended to be bored. “Why do you keep the creature, Leader OrIN?”
    “We’re going to prove to our people that these aliens that RendEL and his family brought here are dangerous to our people. Once they see that, I will have the support of the Katieran Nation to be able to remove RendEL from power.”
    “What then?”
    “We’ll purify our people by eradicating these Earth creatures. Then I will take my rightful place as Prime Leader.”
    Goddess, this male was insane. He glanced over at MarIK, the commander for the Purist rebels. He looked unhappy with what was happening. When their eyes met, he quickly masked his dislike. There might be someone who didn’t believe everything that OrIN was preaching.
    “What does your medic say?”
    “Other than her eyes and senses, she is anatomically similar to our females.”
    “Then how could she be a danger to us? She is clearly weaker.”
    “She killed one of our warriors,” MarIK commented.
    That surprised StrykER. “How?”
    “She surprised one our warriors and shot him with a phaser.”
    “I’m sorry about your warrior, but she couldn’t do that again. What do you plan to do with her?”
    OrIN rubbed his chin. “I need to know everything. I told my lead medic he had free rein to perform whatever experiments he needed.”
    “I could interrogate her first, if you like.”
    OrIN didn’t look convinced.
    MarIK spoke up. “Once she’s dead, she’ll be useless. She might have information we can use against the Katierans. Let him try, then give her over to the medics.”
    OrIN turned to StrykER. “You have twenty-four hours to find out what she knows.”
    “Yes, sir.” He knew OrIN liked his warriors to treat him with respect. It worked as a distraction.
    The male puffed out his chest. “Let me know what you find out.” He turned to leave.
    MarIK paused but didn’t look at StrykER. “When you go to medical, you should know that there are medical scopes in the drawer. Also, the cameras will be view only, no sound.”
    StrykER didn’t respond to him but watched him and thought about what he said. He wasn’t sure if MarIK had a problem with OrIN’s views or he just didn’t like how the female was being treated. There was definitely dissension here that they might be able to use to their advantage. Whatever weakness they had, it was his job to find it and use it against them. First, he had to see about this female.

    Melody had never been so scared in her whole life, not even when she had a car wreck in high school and had to be rushed to the hospital. She was hurt but not scared because her mother had been there with her, holding her hand. What she wouldn’t give to have her mother with her now. No, no, she was glad her mother was safe back on Earth. No one should have to face what she was about to have to face.
