Standing in front of her, he planted his forearm next to her face and lifted his shoulder. Hail still pummeled him. His back, his side, and the arm shielding her face. \u201cI don\u2019t need you to protect me,\u201d she snapped over the chaos. \u201cI know you don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There was something in his tone that sounded almost sad. \u201cBut if one hits you in the head, it\u2019s likely to do permanent damage. Or kill you. It\u2019ll pass.\u201d Vessa wasn\u2019t convinced. When she shifted to look under his arm, though, she realized it was too late. The hail had only worsened. There was so much of it collecting on the ground that, knowing her cursed luck on this planet, she was likely to slip and fall.<\/p>\n<p>Resigning herself to being stuck with Kedar as her shield, she settled back into her place. A particularly large piece hit the side of Kedar\u2019s mask so hard that he growled out a string of curses before pressing in closer to her. Heat radiated from him, and without thought, she put her hands on his abs. He stiffened. Inhaled deeply. \u201cPut them here,\u201d he said, covering one of her hands with his own. Bringing it up his side, he placed it near his armpit.<\/p>\n<p>It was like putting her hands and forearms into a personal heater. The bastard might as well be a thermal band with all the heat he produced. The position left them even closer than before. Her nose could brush against his upper abs if she wasn\u2019t careful. He chuckled, shaking them both. \u201cI would take this over what happened on Pelk.<\/p>\n<p>Do you remember?\u201d \u201cThose evil beetles!\u201d she exclaimed. She hadn\u2019t thought of that hunt in years. It had been a disaster. They\u2019d made it deep into the complex desert environment, hunting for some giant snake Kedar wanted a fang from. The sun had been relentless, not a single cloud in the sky\u2014until the swarm of bright red beetles blocked it out. There was nowhere to take shelter. They tried to outrun them, and when that failed, tried cutting through them, but there were just too many.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI found them for weeks after,\u201d he said. \u201cThey somehow got inside my gear. In my armor.\u201d \u201cI know.\u201d Vessa shook with laughter.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>No part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, recording, or other electronic or mechanical methods, without the prior written permission of the publisher, except as permitted by U.S. copyright law.

How did the company expect her to work in such conditions? She should have charged them more for the egregious weather alone. The Halston Company could afford it.<\/p>\n<p>Her contact had been anonymous, but she always figured out where the money came from. On the surface, they were a tech company with such beautifully engineered designs they could be found across half of the known universe. This job, though, was for something much shadier, if hiring her was any indication. They needed a discreet independent contractor to collect and transport the valuables that had gone down with an otherwise unassuming freighter.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
