about this vision? Was I in it? Felicia felt her cheeks flame and Laetif laughed. I see.
You re going to tell me every detail. And I do mean every detail.
Aiden wasn t sure whether to laugh or cry. Of all the people they could have run
into, Laetif Xyell was the worst. Caleb was going to kill him! He d still been reeling
from Felicia s bizarre behavior in the shuttle bay and their semi-risqué conversation or
he might have chosen a more secluded corridor.
So, how long have you worked for the good doctor? Laetif asked in Fedoros.
Felicia looked at him with panic in her eyes. She obviously knew Laetif was trying
to talk to her. Felicia doesn t speak Fedoros, Madame Xyell. She has trouble with the
language infuser. It gives her terrible headaches.
Then how did she learn Latin? Laetif sauntered along beside them, suspicion
gleaming in her bright blue eyes. Caleb was right. She was physically stunning. Aiden
had yet to make up his mind about her character. The fact she had married Xyell was a
massive obstacle.
There was no choice, he told her. We had to risk it. She s no good to me if she
can t do her job.
Laetif snickered. Somehow I doubt that. She effortlessly switched to Latin as she
went on. Are you two lovers?
Not yet, Aiden said. Felicia gasped and he laughed. The lady thinks it unwise to
become emotionally entangled with her employer.
The lady is wise. Laetif smiled at Felicia. However, no one ever accused me of
being wise. I was Mikko s personal assistant for two years before he asked me to marry
him. That s how we met.
Felicia cocked her head, confusion furrowing her brow. You agree that it is unwise
to become intimate with your superiors and yet that is how you met your husband. Do
you regret your choice in mates?
Laetif glanced at Aiden, her expression reflecting both amusement and surprise.
She doesn t miss much, does she?
Apologies. I am often too bold.
I have no problem with your candor. I felt like I d won the lottery when Mikko
asked me to marry him. Many girls like me become rich men s mistresses, but very few
become their wives.
Girls like you?
Aiden squeezed Felicia and shook his head.
It s all right, Doctor Thrax. I really don t mind.

Shit! She d called him doctor again. She d been speaking Fedoros when she did it
the first time, so he was relatively sure Felicia hadn t understood. Her clear blue gaze
snapped to his and her eyebrow shot even higher. Doctor Thrax? she whispered.
Later.
My father is a Fedoros councilman, but my mother was his mistress, not his wife. I
was raised with just enough wealth and privilege to know how utterly miserable I was
without it. I knew Mikko was attracted to tall blonde women, so I put myself in his
path.
They reached the entrance to the mess hall. Not wanting to embarrass Felicia if the
room was no longer empty, he set her down before triggering the door. As he feared,
people had started to trickle in for the evening meal. He led the women to a table in the
back corner of the room where they would draw the least attention. He glanced around
the room as the women continued to converse. Attempting to avoid attention was futile
while flanked by two gorgeous blondes.
You set out to become his mistress, but he was more honorable than you
expected?
Laetif laughed. You obviously don t know Mikko. My husband is a ruthless
bastard who does nothing that doesn t benefit him.
The bitterness in her tone drew Aiden s full attention. Then why did he marry
you?
My father offered him an obscene dowry for making me respectable . It was a
financial transaction, plain and simple. She shrugged it off, but pain lingered in her
gaze. Enough about me. Tell me about you. Have you always had visions?
Again Felicia looked to him for assistance. She was obviously not accustomed to
lying. How refreshing. She s had prophetic visions since she was a child. That s
actually what brought us together. Six years ago she participated in a sleep study I was
conducting in the hopes of debunking psychic dreams. Instead of being able to prove [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
