away from her, walking calmly and totally naked to his door. It opened up as he approached, the automatic sensors doing their job. Dawn gasped when she saw two more cyborgs standing there. Their gazes went directly to her and her naked body.
    “Fuck,” she cursed, jerking her knees up, trying to hide her exposed body to their view. Terror hit her as the two men stepped into the room. That son of a bitch was going to turn her into a ship whore to share with his buddies. “No!”
    Iron ignored her to step back. “Bring it in.”
    A third cyborg suddenly came into view, although he was hard to see behind the cot he carried. It was an entire framed unit with mattress and rails. There wasn’t much room to spare as the men all worked together to put it down flat between the cleansing room area and the end of the bed. Dawn huddled tighter, terrified, watching the three strange cyborgs send looks her way that told her they were interested in her.
    “Leave,” Iron ordered the men. “Thank you for your assistance.”
    One of the men hesitated when the other two turned away to leave. The dark-skinned cyborg with black hair and dark eyes remained. “A word, Iron?”
    Iron frowned but nodded. Iron crossed his arms over his chest, seemingly oblivious to his naked body or aroused state. He could have been fully dressed by the way he behaved as he waited for the other cyborg to talk.
    “I haven’t had a female in a very long time. Would you consider either selling her or renting her to me for use for a good price? If you sell her, I will give you use of her body for free for the first month as a bonus. I could make a good profit with her on the ship. Many males would pay a high price for her.”
    “No!” Dawn shouted. Her terrified look centered on Iron, who met her eyes with a bored expression. “Please don’t do this to me. I’m not a sex worker, damn it. I haven’t had sex in two years. I’ll make a deal with you.”
    Red eyebrows arched. “Aren’t you going to offer to fight me again to determine your fate?”

Chapter Three
     
    Hatred for this jerk burned through her. He was being a sarcastic prick at the moment. He held her life in his hands now though. She bit back some choice names she wanted to toss at him. She had to take a deep breath to even speak around her anger and fear.
    “I won’t fight you again if you make him leave. Please don’t sell me or rent me out to other cyborgs .”
    He just stared at her, expressionless, as the seconds ticked away. She’d kicked him off the bed. Would this be the way he got back at her? She licked her lips, feeling really dry mouthed from her terror.
    “Please don’t do this to me. You know I’m afraid of you. I’m sorry if I pissed you off but put yourself in my shoes.”
    “I would never be as weak as you. I would have fought to the death before I allowed myself to be captured.”
    She bit back the word “asshole”. “Please don’t do this to me.”
    “I will let you decide your own fate.” He let his arms drop and moved around the bed, having to brush against the other cyborg to reach her. He leaned down, releasing her wrists with just a few quick motions of his hands. “Do what I say and show me that keeping you with me for my private use is a good investment.”
    Dawn lunged, grabbed the cover from his bed and jerked the material over her exposed body to hide it from both men’s view.
    She rubbed her wrists as he backed away from her. She was free. Her gaze jerked to the other cyborg . He was watching her intently, his black gaze scaring her. Her attention went to Iron, hating him a bit more because she knew whatever he ordered her to do, she’d have to obey or face the consequences by possibly being given to the other male.
    “Stand up and go lie flat on your back on the cot.”
    Hot tears burned the back of her eyes as she got to her feet. Her hands fisted the cover, tearing if off the bed to clutch it to her chest, hiding as much of her bare body as
