KARNEX

Silas had to be dragged, shouting and complaining, all the way to the brig but once he was locked up, Corinne and Karnex loaded a hopper right away.

“We’d better not wait—you never can tell if they’ll change their minds,” she said to Karnex as he slid into the pilot’s seat and she slid in beside him. “ Are you sure you can find your way to the Mother Ship .”

He nodded, already firing up the engines.

“One hundred percent. One of the last things they put in the lab files before everyone left was the coordinates of where they were going.”

“But that was hundreds of years ago. What if they’ve moved on?” Corinne asked anxiously.

“Then we’ll keep looking for them.” K -lx put an arm around her for a quick hug before he gripped the steering yolk. “ Don’t worry, baby,” he sent through their Bond . “ The Goddess will guide us.”

This seemed to satisfy his new mate—he felt her warmth and happiness and it made him warm and happy too. They were going on a new adventure together—one they hoped never to return from.

Because they weren’t just running away from the station and the Company …they were going home.
