Nex learns to keep his woman safe, happy, and well-armed.
She watched Nex fire. He seemed unaware that she’d
furnished herself with firepower. After she was sure she understood how to use
the weapon, Anneliese poked her head up and noted the dozens of gray-skinned
drones emerging from behind the trees.
How many times had those mechanical bastards
tortured her on behalf of their makers, the Monsuda? Anneliese’s lips pulled
into a snarling grin. The moment of payback had arrived.
She brought her weapon up and fired on the front
line. With no sight on the tube, she was off by a mile. She adjusted and tried
again, taking out a silently advancing drone. It tumbled over, its huge
black-lens eyes turning milky white as it started to smoke.
Nex’s shocked voice rose above the sizzling pops
of their weapons. He sounded affronted. “Hey! Women don’t fight.”
“Your women, maybe.” Anneliese ducked as the drones
leveled boomerang-shaped weapons in her direction. Scatter-shot whistled over
her head as she said, “How about shutting up and learning how we do it on
Earth?”
