Her Cyborg Awakes (Diaspora Worlds) (12 page)

Later, as they took a private transport to the
jump ship Kaistril tapped away on his com.

“Who are you contacting?” Sabralia asked. She was
pleasantly exhausted. 

“Daveed. Letting him know they can have free
passage to New Prague and a waiver of immigration wait time if they join us
right now. He says yes. Sending him the ship’s location.”

Sabralia smiled. Free passage and a waiver of wait
time would make Daveed and Amira prosperous immigrants.

They got on board the New Prague ship. Kaistril
took care of business, mainly concerning Daveed and his family, and then lead
her to his room.

Karvar met them, but barely greeted them, his eyes
glued to his com screen. “Your family suite is ready.” He muttered. “Kyler
still hasn’t arrived back at the ship, though all his vitals showed normal on
my screen.”

“Do you think your brother is all right? They
haven’t caught him, have they?”

 “No, the signal is good,” Karvar said. “I wired a
panic button that will pick up sounds, heart rate, all that. He seems fine.”

“Kyler is probably having the time of his life
zooming around the sphere,” Kaistril said.

Karvar looked up from the com. “She’s coming with
us? Not traveling on?”

“She’s going to be my wife.”

“Oh.” Karvar sighed. “Well, if you have a wife,
and Kyler has agreed to marry the Chancellor’s daughter, then mother’s going to
start arranging my marriage.” He went back to the com, looking depressed.
“Kellac found a woman, too.”

“Life is tough, little brother,” Kaistril said
with a chuckle.

Back in their quarters—a small room with a
comfortable bed and separate bathing area—Sabralia said, “Your mother might not
think our marriage is such a great idea, since she believes in arranging
marriages for her sons.”

Kaistril snorted. “She can only suggest it. And
why Kyler would go along with it I can’t fathom. Probably something to do with
Kellac and I disappearing. Kyler’s the oldest. He always thinks he’s
responsible for everything. Trying to make some happy family memories, I
suspect.”

“Kellac is another brother?”

“Yes. He got imprisoned on a Puregen world. It’s a
long story. I don’t even know the whole thing.” Kaistril gathered her into his
arms and yawned. “I’m not quite recovered yet. Karvar said I would need extra
rest for a week or so. I think we’ll have to spend most of the journey in bed.”
He grinned.

Sabralia slid into the comfortable bed with him
and rained affectionate kisses over his face. “Your recovery is my number one
priority.”

Kellac is everything Gema secretly wants, but a
future together is impossible.

Kellac, younger brother of Kaistril, HER CYBORG
AWAKES, ends up on planet Toph in military prison. While not at fault, Kellac
must wait for diplomatic solutions while the military keeps him in lock up. Stranded
on the planet Toph as a child, Gema is in the Women's Penitentiary for
vagrancy. Not PureGen (lab perfected human), she cannot be a citizen and has no
legal status.

They are chosen to be contestants on the wildly
popular Survival Game, in which two prisoners compete to win credits and their
freedom on a planet, soon to be open for immigration. With every moved recorded
by a swarm of flying cameras, Kellac and Gema fight their attraction to each
other and work together to earn credits. The competition goes well--until the
spaceship carrying the show's production team crashes onto their wilderness
planet. They are stranded and survival is no longer a game.
