The Phoenix was sitting in high orbit waiting to hear from him, he hadn’t wanted to risk it being discovered by leaving it grounded while he took care of his business. When it was dark enough he’d access the ship via his neural implant and have it come and get him. He would be a few days early to Pinnacle by leaving that night, but he didn’t have any reason to hang around on Earth.

  He heard the front door to the cabin open on squeaky hinges and, expecting the worse, spun around to face whatever was coming in. When he saw who it was his heart began to hammer in his chest almost painfully, but not from fear. Standing in the doorway, blonde hair framed by the fading light of day, was her. She stood there, as beautiful as ever, his one true regret.

  “Hi, Jason,” she said softly. “I got your letter.”

  Maybe the guys will be waiting at Pinnacle for me instead.

  Thank you for reading Omega Rising.
