71. Resilient Spirit
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Tejeda wore for the first time the marks of a colonel on his chest when he visited King Astin's palace in Sidhara, the capital of Southern Beridian. He landed without an escort, opting to send C1313 with Cato to the planet's other hemisphere. He was perfectly capable of taking care of himself.Tejeda strode through the large hall, passing the guards and servants with their heads bowed. He glanced around, admiring the exquisite artwork that adorned the walls, the opulent furniture, and the beautifully polished floors.Crystal chandeliers hung in the large room, casting golden light on the marbled floor. The walls at the sides were blazing red, with statues of armored knights and serpentine basilisks. A gilt-framed picture displayed King Astin and a meadow full of soldiers behind him. Another painting depicted a panorama of rolling wheat fields beneath an olive s

72. Real Illusions
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Tejeda couldn't say he was shocked Shayla wasn't in Southern Beridian. Astin's disappointment seemed genuine, just like his own. Along with Carmen, disappointment had been a trusty companion, a permanent shadow throughout his long existence. Under his clothes, the spoon dangled from his neck. He wished Cato had better fortune than he did.The doors opened as Astin clapped his hands. Several lovely young ladies entered the room. Blondes and brunettes, high heels and sandals, women of all shapes and sizes flashed past underneath his gaze."I cannot let a colonel leave my palace without giving him my best. And I plan to offer you every indulgence. My harem is the best in this solar system and, some say, even in the entire galaxy. Look at them and take a pick. Your mission can wait for one night."Each had her own allur

73. Bondage
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Tejeda sat on the side of the bed, thinking about how he should spend the night. He was certain that the king knew more than he was letting on. There was also his technique of enticing Tejeda to stay for the night. There was something more than met the eye.The door creaked open, and a beautiful feminine voice called out, "Can I enter?" Even though he didn’t answer, delicate footsteps approached him. The moment he turned around, his jaw hung open. The woman he asked for the night, Alina, was in the room completely naked. At first, he saw her face. No tinge of red blushed her cheeks. If she had any shred of decency in her body, he couldn’t tell. Though what her body did have was quite exquisite. Those generous curves were much better than he envisioned them, and they fit her boldness perfectly

74. Winds in Space
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Cato stood before the door to the throne room, her heart beating fast. A fancy servant told her and C1313 to wait there until King Gurst was ready to receive them. The two guards standing in front of the door, the same ones who had let them pass through the palace grounds, and then escorted them here, were staring at her with their dull eyes.Having her cover blown wasn't a concern. After years of concealing one's actual identity, one becomes used to this possibility. Cato seemed fully human now, and she would pass any test that wasn't rigorous enough to reveal her hidden skin foldings.Her pointy ears were tucked inside a pocket under her hair. The retractable claws hibernated under her human nails, just waiting for an opportunity to scratch like a normal kitty. Her tail, because she had one, was neatly hidden along her spine. Apparently, the creator of the Fe

75. Deceitful Robot
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
"My dear, I'm so glad you're here," the king said. Shayla's expression didn't change, but the king continued. "Your presence will make this meeting more exciting."King Gurst stopped next to Shayla and placed a hand over her shoulder. C1313 saw her shudder, but just for a moment.“As you can see, the mission I tasked the Black Onyx with is over. I’ve found my daughter.”“Father,” Shayla said, her piercing dark green eyes measuring Cato and C1313, “these two aren’t here for the task. They’ve come to take me back on their ship.”Cato remained there, staring. C1313, on the other hand, was not surprised. Shayla's decision to return home on her own had always been a possibility, just as Jackeye had suggested. The rest of t

76. Follow the Voice
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
After stashing the bodies of the two incapacitated guards under the table, C1313 draped the clothing over the edges, creating a fine curtain to hide them. She barely had time to finish this task before cheerful voices approached. A door opened, revealing smiling women who gossiped and giggled. They stopped for a moment, looking at C1313."You must be the newest member of the harem. We've been instructed to meet you." One of the ladies emerged. "We'll go to supper soon. Would you like to eat?"The woman was dressed in a transparent, bright yellow robe that matched her hair. Her smile seemed genuine, but C1313 knew that many people wore fake smiles.“I don’t require food.” She kept her voice steady and her face impassive without any effort.

77. You May Kill the Groom
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
After the guards took Cato and C1313 out of the throne room and the doors closed behind them, Shayla turned her furious gaze upon her father.“You told me no harm will come to Tejeda and his crew. I played my part even now in front of them.”King Gurst sighed as he plunged into his cushioned seat. "Oh, Shayla, I feel like you have completely forgotten your training. Lies and deceit are the best ways to get what you want. I wanted you here, and look at you shining on my red carpet. If I couldn’t make a great assassin out of you, a pretty puppet should do the trick for now."Shayla's breath remained trapped for a split second as her heart clenched. She glanced at the man she despised and dreaded the most, the man who had her on the run and devastated her life. Clutching her hands, she recalled how he

78. Kicking the Crown
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Shayla started to touch the walls in search of a hidden control panel. “What about the kiss? I thought we settled upon keeping things at a professional level.”“Yeah, I know.” Tejeda scratched his head, and the golden crown fell on the floor. He didn’t spare it a single glance. “I was just immersed into my role. You know, your husband and stuff like that.”From behind the door, outside in the corridor, came the shouts of soldiers. The unmistakable ring and clang of guns being pulled out, the clickity-clack of boots marching on the marble floor.There could be only one explanation for this: C1313 and Cato managed to run. For them, this was good, but for Shayla and Tejeda, quite the opposite. Their chances of escaping dwindled if the entire force was on high alert.

79. You Might Be Me
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Tejeda ditched his personal guards when he took off with the shuttle. They weren’t his anyway. Shayla was piloting the craft as he took out a small device from his pocket. Smiling, he felt pleased with himself for stealing one of the holographic hubs. With the skilled individuals in his crew, he should be able to have a running system on the Space Spoon in no time. He even giggled, thinking of how much fun he would have.The ship rose up into the air and flew away from the palace. The city lights blinked out, leaving only the stars.“He’ll still come after me–after us,” Shayla said as the shuttle reached Beridian’s outer atmosphere. “He won’t. I’ll make sure of it.” Tejeda put the device back into his pocket and turned to her. “Do you trust me?&

80. On Vacation?
The Space Spoon/Helen B.
Sun, water, and fun. These were the three ingredients for which Tejeda brought his crew to Genoria Prime. When things got tough for his psyche, he liked to take a vacation in an exotic place every now and then. He inhaled deeply and gently exhaled. The air from the never-ending ocean brought the scent of freedom. He took another long breath in. While Tejeda stood there, inhaling the fresh, salty air, he forgot all about the tensions accumulated and the tasks that were waiting for him. Since it was over a thousand years since he last visited Genoria Prime, a bountiful water world with just a few stretches of land, Tejeda considered it the perfect place for relaxation. Leaving the Space Spoon on high orbit with E00 and Hanga, he dragged the rest of the crew on the planet. Seeing that every part of the land was a be
