Not really, unless you count the fact the biggest, orneriest bastard of a cyborg alive finally
admitted he was capable of caring.
Why is that so surprising?
Because the woman he fell for is human, and Aramus hates them. And, by hate, I mean he d
nuke them all in a blink of an eye and not feel an ounce of remorse.
Is this your way of saying this woman is in danger? Anastasia might not agree with what
some humans did, but she wouldn t stand by and watch one be abused.
No, she s not in danger, but Seth might be if he interrupts Aramus at the wrong moment. He s
very protective of Riley and, given his mixed feelings on Seth, could react violently. MJ shrugged.
When it comes to jealousy, we have no control it seems.
Something she knew all too well. My husband, ever the idiot. Which way to this Aramus
quarters? I d better head him off.
Because she hadn t saved him then had him save her and then gotten defrosted only to lose him
to a jealous cyborg. This saving his stupid ass gig is starting to become a habit. Just like the old
days. By all the nanos in her body, it was good to have him back.
Chapter Twenty
Whistling a jaunty tune, Seth waved and said hello to the cyborgs he saw on his way to
Aramus quarters. Most stared at him dumbstruck. It might have been his lack of shoes and shirt.
Maybe it was his grin and the fact that he ran, staying out of reach of Anastasia, who shot irritated
mind commands at him; Halt your stupid, mischief-making ass right this instant.
As if. He rather enjoyed having her chase him. Besides, he really wanted to see Aramus. The
grumpy bastard was, whether he liked it or not, one of Seth s best friends, and he d probably been
worried sick at Seth s disappearance. I m just being a good ol buddy and reassuring him of my
wellbeing. Nah. He just wanted to meet the woman nuts enough to get cozy with Aramus.
The lock code on Aramus room took but a few seconds for him to break through. The door
swished open, and Seth strode in, only to stop dead. For a moment he wondered if his eyes were
defective or whether they d entered a wormhole during his sleep and crossed over to an alternate
universe. Something cataclysmic must have happened because there was Aramus, in bed, with a
human! MJ spoke the truth.
Holy shit. Somewhere in the universe, pigs flew.
Seth! Aramus snapped out his name. Where the fuck did you crawl out of?
I was a passenger on the ship you just acquired. I take it you didn t read the captain s log. I
was enjoying a lovely, restorative nap in one of their stasis capsules, not entirely by choice, when MJ
woke me. He told me you were busy getting your rocks off with a human. I assumed he was delirious,
but when repeated slaps to his head to jolt his synapses didn t change his story, I had to come see for
myself.
Wearing a familiar scowl, Aramus growled. Go away. It seemed sex hadn t cured his friend
of his ornery nature. What a relief. One of Seth s enjoyments in life was antagonizing Aramus. The
fights kept him fit.
As for leaving? No freaking way. But you haven t even introduced us yet. Seth waggled his
brows at the human, who bit her lip, probably so she wouldn t giggle. Mirth shone clearly in her eyes.
Aramus, however, seemed less than amused. Who she is, is none of your business.
Aw, come on, Aramus. Don t be like that. Aren t you just the teensiest, tiniest bit glad to see
me?
Not really. It was a lot more quiet and peaceful with you gone.
Before Seth could reply, probably with something that would have really irritated Aramus, the
dulcet tone of his wife interrupted. About time she d caught him.
Funny. I would have said the same thing myself. Anastasia crowded into Aramus room, and
while she flicked Seth a look, her gaze was snagged by the woman in the bed. Her voice couldn t hide
its interest when she said, If it isn t the forensic doctor. I ve got questions for you.
And I have a question too. Just who the fuck are you, lady, and what do you want?
Ah, how sweet. His wife, who wanted to hate him and his best friend, who also pretended to
hate him, were about to meet and probably hate each other. Seth beamed. Things were about to get
truly interesting. I think introductions are in order. Aramus, and hot-looking naked girl in his bed, I d
like you to meet Anastasia. My wife.
