    angel. Ashriel looked over his shoulder and snorted. “Show-off.” They began to descend. She buried her face in Ashriel’s neck, holding him tight as she felt her belly do a flip. “I’m glad you’re back,” Seth said when Ashriel finally landed. “We need to get out of here now.” Another explosion rocked the ground. Above their heads, the Rhylosian sky looked smoky and red like Megdoluc’s. Ashriel didn’t let her down, just maneuvered her in his hold to carry her up the starcruiser’s ramp. He didn’t stop until he’d reached the helm and placed her into one of the seats. Crouching, he strapped her in and tested the belts before leaning over to kiss her deeply. The helm was a flurry of activity as the others strapped themselves in. Ashriel gripped one side of the pilot’s chair at the same time Seth gripped the other. They stared at each other for a few seconds. “Let Ash fly,” the others chorused frantically, “please.” Seth snorted and took the co-pilot’s chair grudgingly. Anniel watched Ashriel strap himself in and begin to bark out orders. The console came to life with thousands of blinking lights and glowing screens. His big hands gripped the throttles, revving the turbines to high-pitched peak. Anniel felt the craft begin to lift. “Hold on,” his deep voice said in the dimly lit interior. Anniel closed her eyes, her teeth clenching together as she felt her stomach bottom out. The starcruiser shot up at incredible speed. Gravity tried to suck them back down, but they continued to ...

Her brow beaded in sweat and she moaned. They’d ascended too fast. The sound of safety belts being undone reached her ears. “You have the helm now, Sethaliel,” Ashriel said just before she felt his hands on her. He undid her harness and gently helped her up. “Come. Let’s get you settled down below. It’s going to be a long flight.” “Where are we headed?” she asked letting him lead her toward the ramps. “Wherever Seth deems safe,” he answered. *** He led her down to the cabins below, holding her close. Her skin looked ashen and he felt a slight tremor go through her body when he held her tighter. “Are you in pain?” “No. I’m fine. Just a little shaky.” “Have you eaten?” He scowled then. “Of course you haven’t. You were too busy risking your neck and that of our unborn’s traipsing through hostile space and a war-ridden planet looking for me.” When hurt and anger tightened her features, guilt assailed him. He shouldn’t be upsetting her further, never mind that he really wanted to take her across his knee and show her the business end of his palm for scaring the life out of him with her well intended but foolhardy actions. Stopping before she could blurt out the protest already forming on her lips, he pulled her against him and ravished her sweet mouth. “I was so afraid of losing you, my love,” he moaned ...
