Vorik stood at the window in the council room, looking down at the blue planet below. He was missing Alice. He was thankful Merrick could finally tell him his mate was safe. It was one less thing to worry about. Vorik was also surprised that Merrick had mated with a zombie female and that Medic Kaul was able to cure her.
The thought of Alice being pregnant with twins made him smile inside. More and more, he thought as time went by, he needed to do something about Council Leader Tosh. If he didn't, then all those pairs and their unborn children would suffer, including Alice and their twins.
It was becoming clearer and clearer that he was going to have to kill his leader to make everyone safe. It would be the only way, to avoid retaliation. He didn't know if he would die trying, but he had to do something. If he didn't try, he felt like more would die.
