quick?”
    “Sensitive?”
    She nodded.
    Not many women would ask for it to be quick. They both
glanced at the countdown on the wall. It would have to be, they were running
out of time before the door would open and refuse to close until the room was
empty of life signs.
    “Get on then,” he said before she could think about what the
clock meant.
    She turned around and eased herself onto his cock. A ripple
of heat ran through his blood as he watched her take him into her core, her
hair falling around her. She didn’t look like the fearless pilot he’d once
worked with anymore. She looked like a woman intent enjoying herself for as
long as possible.
    Not that she hadn’t once worn a similar expression after
shooting a ship and knocking out its engines in a piece of precision flying.
Pure joy. It was contagious. He’d never forgotten what her happiness felt like.
    However, this time it was because of something he was doing.
He grabbed a lock of hair and pulled her forward. He let her set the pace.
After a few strokes her core tightened and she moaned against his lips. Keeping
to his promise to be quick, he gave into the sensation of Silva riding him and
the desire that filled her thoughts. Two more thrusts and he let go. His cock
twitched as he came within her.
    The release was just as sweet the second time around. Maybe
sweeter as it felt as though he’d been waiting six years for that moment.
    She lay on his chest as if any movement was too much, and he
didn’t want to make her move. He traced shapes on her back and stroked her
hair. He could get used to this. It was so close to what he’d imagined over the
years, only better. She was actually here in his arms after all this time.
    The words were on the tip of his tongue, the confession that
he knew her and wanted her, wanted more than this, but then she moved. She
kissed him once and got up, gathering her uniform and her bag.
    He closed his eyes and tried not think about her leaving. It
was best he continue the game and walk away…just like he had before.

    In the tiny bathroom Silva ran her fingers through her hair,
untangling the strands so she could re-braid it. Filid moved behind her and did
it for her. He placed a kiss on the back of her neck, a gesture that was almost
too intimate for the strangers they were pretending to be. It had always been
complicated between them. Today was no different. She looked at him in the
mirror and was so tempted to say something but didn’t know what.
    What could she say now? Besides, he hadn’t given any
indication that he knew her. If she confessed and he stared blankly, today
would be obliterated into space junk. Her heart couldn’t deal with that.
Instead she smiled, part of her wishing it could have been different between
them.
    “Is it your first trip to the Moon?” It wasn’t an APM
standard stop even though their ships passed it regularly.
    “Yes.” He tied off her braid but seemed reluctant to let her
go just yet, his fingers toying with her hair. She felt the same.
    “So what else are you going to do while you’re here?” It was
a personal question that she probably shouldn’t be asking. Maybe he’d go
looking for more sex, not drugs, otherwise the APM would charge him, and Filid
always obeyed the rules. Always. If he hadn’t six years ago where would they be
now?
    “I need to see my cousin. He works here as a registrar.”
    “Births, deaths and marriages?” Decadent Moon might be a
pleasure resort but behind the scenes were the staff who ran the place. There
was a small city devoted to keeping the Moon operating from engineering to the
dancers and bartenders. Then of course there were the people who came here to
get married or divorced. After leaving the APM she’d thought about taking a
shuttle job that ran supplies between the commerce stations and the Moon.
Fortunately she’d been saved by a job offer from the Bird Cruise Liner Company.
    Filid nodded. “I haven’t seen him for
