free, I wondered if it just might be a better thing if I linked with someone else. Even though that’d probably mean the worst possible outcome for Lara.
    But I wasn’t here to make friends.
    I was here to exact revenge.

Chapter 5
    My entire body felt tense. Wrestling with ethical factors in this mission was going to be my biggest hurdle. Though I’d rationalized that Lara was doomed anyhow it didn’t make this task any easier on me. In order to push past my inner demons I’d adopted a cold and calculating demeanor, focusing on Baynar and all the hate I had for him. With him out of our way perhaps things would settle down over time and we’d no longer be major targets. As it stood, from what we’d heard from other settlers or passersby of Taseeus, our little group was still top of Baynar’s hit list. With him alive we’d forever be looking over our shoulders and unwelcome anywhere else but the farthest reaches of the universe.
    â€œWant to walk?” Ayres asked. Without waiting for a reply he got to his feet and reached for my hand. He pulled me up slowly against his battle hard body and reached around to grab hold of my ass. Wrapping my arms tight around him I could feel him harden against me. I tossed back my head allowing my thoughts to turn to more pleasurable things.
    â€œSure you just want to walk?”
    His hands came up around my shoulders and just when I thought he’d kiss me, he instead turned me around. “March.”
    Obediently I began to stride forward. “Aren’t you worried we’ll run into a Daeodon?” As soon as I tossed the question over my shoulder at him I regretted it. His battle with the giant boar-like beast in the midst of the tournament last time we’d been here had caused a huge rift between us. Chancing a glance back at him I saw to my relief he wasn’t remembering that terrible fight. He was watching my ass.
    For his benefit I adopted a rhythmic sway. “How far you wanna walk?”
    We reached the edge of the clearing. Before me the huge trees of a vast forest spread out. The land appeared much darker in the thick woods, and cooler too, causing me to tremble a little.
    Ayres came up beside me and took my hand. “I’ll lead.”
    He guided me along the faint, meandering path until we were several yards into the thick of the forest. A downed tree broken off about six feet up lay hung on an angle touching the ground. Ayres leaned against the thick trunk and pulled me into his arms. His hot mouth came down on mine with a searing kiss. My hands braced against his chest feeling the steady pounding of his heart.
    His tongue teased mine for a moment then he began kissing his way down my neck. I leaned back a little so his hand could come up to rest on my breast. Through the fabric of my shirt he pinched my nipple.
    â€œOuch!” When I tried to pull away he pulled me tighter. The tension soon seeped from my body and I let myself relax. I lost myself in his kiss, hardly aware of the feel of his hands pulling off my shirt and tugging down my pants.
    â€œWhat if Lara’s gone?” The sudden image of her popped into my head.
    â€œThen we’ll find another,” he assured me. I moved back from him while he yanked his shirt off over his head and tossed it behind him onto the tree trunk beside mine.
    His callous dismissal of Lara’s fate annoyed me. “So I guess it doesn’t matter then, what happens to her?”
    The moons gave off just enough light to allow me to see Ayres’ annoyed expression. “I warned you going in what would happen. Her fate is sealed regardless.” He pulled down his pants and soon stood naked before me. He had a raging hard on. I swallowed hard, wanting him despite his callous words.
    On Taseeus our lovemaking had been mostly fast and frantic, snatched liaisons when the moment allowed. Everything about that terrible planet hinged on constant survival. Food and
