An almost imperceptible smirk formed on Clarien's face as he imagined dozens of heavily armed troops storming onto the ship and gunning down Avery.
Normally he was indifferent even towards people that he considered his enemies, but Avery had caused him more harm than anyone else in his life ever had. He could not deny that he would feel some joy as he watched the man being killed.
Yet, the loyal subordinates that he was expecting were not the ones to come out of the air lock and board the ship.
Instead, it was only a single woman, who had long brunette hair and distinct feline ears twitching atop her head.
Obviously, Clarien already recognized who this was.
In the files provided to him by Delilah, she had shown up the most after Avery.
She was not only his first crew member and copilot, but also the man's lover.
How she had arrived here though was a complete mystery to him.
