“Poor phrasing. In some matters, a decade would only be the beginning.”
She ran her fingers through his hair. “It’s hard to believe it’s been a fourteen-year path to get here. Would you ever have guessed we’d end up in the Guard, if someone had asked you when we were teenagers, living on Valta?”
“Stars, no!” he laughed. “I think I was still planning to be a veterinarian back then.”
“That’s right! You had that master plan of working at the petting zoo at the Tribeca Nature Preserve.”
“It would have been fun.”
“Yeah, it would have.” She shook her head. “And I would have been a Reader, entertaining tourists with mind-reading tricks. Ugh, but I would have hated every second of it.”
“Life in the military suits you—helping people, going on adventurous missions, making a real difference in others’ lives.”
Kira gazed into his eyes. “As much as I enjoyed it before, something was always missing. Now, having you here, I have everything I ever wanted.”
He brushed her hair back from her forehead. “No matter where you end up, I’ll always be waiting to welcome you home.”
She smiled. “When you put it like that, tackling those future unknowns doesn’t sound so bad.”
THE END
Kira’s story isn’t over!

Troubled Space
Nothing could possibly go wrong. Probably. Well, maybe…
When you go to the trouble of legitimately buying a ship for your illegitimate smuggling operation, and that ship turns out to be stolen from a powerful weapons dealer… well, you might figure the universe hates you. But not Jack Tressler, an aspiring smuggler; he’s used to taking misfortune in stride. Given the choice to die—or get an ill-fitting cybernetic eye and join a crew of thieves on a crazy heist—he opts for the unpleasant modification. After all, it’s just another day in the life. With rabid pirates, ruthless corporations, and a scorned former employer all vying for the same bounty, Jack and his new friends will need all their wits and snark to survive until their next meal in this farcical space opera adventure.
