We ran over to Alice and Slak.
“Hey, asshole,” I said.
Alice reacted fast and clamped her eyes shut.
Slak didn’t do so well.
He stood there with his head bowed over and red marks around his neck where Alice had been clinging to him.
“Not so tough now, are you?” I said to Slak.
I slapped him across the face. My palm burned and turned pink.
Ouch.
But it was worth it.
“That was for betraying my boyfriend and our emperor,” I said. “Now, get in a pod.”
Slak shuffled off without a word of argument, an angry red palm print glowing on his cheek.
I repeated the command to the others who also did as I said.
None of us breathed a sigh of relief until they were all locked away.
“What do we do with the other girls?” Alice said.
They still stood to attention before their pods.
“Do you think there’s a de-de-neuralizer switch on this thing?” I said.

I might lose her forever.
I couldn’t allow that to happen.
After the ship took off, the communicator’s signal was weak but strong enough for us to follow it. I was only relieved the ship hadn’t left the planet.
Not yet.
They likely wanted to make sure they had what they’d come there to steal.
My fated mate.
I swear, I’ll tear them to pieces with my bare hands.
I would ensure the ship remained on this planet, no matter what.
“Target the ship’s thrusters,” I said. “If it attempts to take off, bring it down.”
