almost like she was scared.”
    He slid a sideways glance to find Cyn watching him with a peculiar look.
    “What? I’m not that bad a dancer, you know. People actually pay to watch me.”
    “Yeah, and some people will pay to watch Sartorian slug-worms duel to the death, so don’t get above yourself, lover-boy.”
    She grabbed a diagnostic pad from the bench when he put his tools down to check the android they were working on. She pursed her lips as the thing booted up and displayed a readout on the androids base systems. Routine stuff she didn’t need to think so hard on so he wasn’t surprised when she spoke again.
    “It was the Aries 7000 act wasn’t it? You sure you didn’t scare her with the ‘big, bad, killer cyborg’ thing?”
    Above them the android snapped its eyes open, staring blankly at the wall ahead. It was the Deloriat dancing girl model. All slender lines and tits like globes on a stick, it did nothing for him. He liked soft curves and give in his women. A little padding on the bones so he didn’t have to worry about hurting them if he was a little rough or breathed on them wrong. His mystery woman from last night was his idea of perfection.
    Johnny shook his head as he waited for her verdict on the work. “No, couldn’t have been. She was really getting into that. Her heart rate went through the roof and pupil dilation? I lost sight of the color of her eyes at one point.”
    He might have lost sight of them, but it made no difference. He knew what color they were. A rich, warm brown, they reminded him of roast wayalla nuts from Feneris Three or the deep, dark color of kruss , the outer systems answer to expensive terran chocolate, in his opinion better than the original. He’d never been into food during sex, but the urge to cover her in the stuff just so he could lick it off hit him and he shuddered, cock hard and aching in his pants in a heartbeat.
    “I need to find her.”
    The door chime jingled from the front room of the shop, alerting them to the fact a customer had walked in. Cyn shoved the pad into his hands.
    “She’s hot to trot. Close and seal while I go and deal with whoever that is.” She rubbed her hands together. “Hopefully a nice fat sale so I can go buy those components I’ve been drooling over at Big Vinnie’s.”
    Johnny shook his head as she disappeared through the door into the main shop. Typical Cyn. No interest in the usual female type things like flowers and chocolates. The one time he’d bought her jewelry, she’d been delighted…then broke it apart and used the stones in a jeweled bearing. He’d been pissed, but the sight of her sitting in her pj’s, ruined bracelet scattered around her as she showed him the bearing excitedly had melted his heart. It wasn’t her fault she wasn’t like most women, she just hadn’t been built that way.
    It seemed his mystery woman from last night wasn’t like most women either. He’d offered it to her on a plate, an offer that would have had most women at his beck and call or pinned against the wall in his dressing room as he took them hard and fast to slake the lust that surged through his body at the mere thought of her.
    “Sheesh, get a grip of yourself, Johnny-me-lad,” he muttered as he ran a shaky hand through his hair, sending the short spikes into disarray. The way he was reacting, cock hard and heavy in the loose combat pants he favored off stage, anyone would think he was a Gemini, an infiltration cyborg with a predilection for honey-traps. He wasn’t.
    Aries 7000, the name he used in his act, was a reflection of his true nature. An Aries class, he was designed for heavy combat and demolitions and he was damn good at it. There wasn’t anything he couldn’t do with explosives. No building, ship or safe he couldn’t crack with a little inventiveness and a shaped charge.
    In his hands, demolitions became a work of art. He could parallel and string mines to bring an enemy force to their knees before they’d
