Kiera went, looking back once to see Mansr staring hard after her.
Kiera debated how he could have worse news, curious about the man and the war.
Kiera waited for him to speak, wanting to hide somewhere until she could think straight.
He shook himself mentally to refocus on the dire circumstances before him but was unable to force the thought of Kiera from his mind.
Though he was physically engaged in swordplay, Kiera sensed A'Ran's distraction the next morning as they sparred.
Kiera watched him, troubled by their morning interaction.
Kiera stared, unable to fathom she'd been ejected into the middle of space to die.

A little late to matter, Kiera said with a shrug.
Kiera said nothing, trying to think the best of her friend while anger stirred.
Kiera wasn't surprised and felt bad for admitting it to herself.
Kiera listened, interested despite trying not to be.
Kiera looked at Evelyn, astonished by her callous words.
It's just … god, it's so awful, Kiera.
Kiera asked, trying hard to control the anger building within her.
Kiera rose and turned away, wondering how her friend was so clueless while standing in front of her painting of A'Ran.
Kiera asked, at the end of her patience.
Kiera released a deep breath and trailed her.
Kiera's heart still did somersaults, and she felt both doubtful Evelyn would follow through and ecstatic at the prospect.
Kiera raised the arm of her sweatshirt to reveal the band she already wore.
Kiera lowered the shirt, glad she'd never convinced herself to remove the band.
Evelyn rose, looking as tired as Kiera felt.
Kiera had bathed in the bathroom in the back of the craft, but it was too small to have a clothing unit.
She handed Evelyn a small bowl of water and then moved to Kiera, handing her a translator.
Kiera took it and put it on her earlobe.
Kiera said nothing, her mind racing.
The group was silent and tense, the warriors flanking Evelyn eyeing Kiera as much as the distant flashes of light.
Kiera looked around, speechless at the soaring ceilings, the atrium with a waterfall in the foyer, and pristine white walls covered with the multi-colored roping.
Kiera made her way through the crowd to an area with far fewer people.

The warrior Kiera had been attempting to scale addressed Romas.
Kiera was near tears and began to squirm when the six-legged creature came into sight again.
Her friend was sure-footed and confident, but Kiera knew she was nervous.
Kiera almost apologized, but the approach and introduction of two pre-teen boys with white-blond hair and bright blue eyes distracted her.
Kiera's eyes dropped to her lap, and she stared at the mass of furry legs, freezing in place for a long moment.
One of the kittens dashed toward Kiera, moving sideways like a spider on its flexible legs, and she skittered farther away.
Kiera looked at her arm, where a bruise was already forming from Kisolm's grip.
Satisfied to find the sexy man wasn't a serial killer or worse, Kiera's attention shifted to the main house as they approached.
The women counted four doors, and Kiera held out her bracelet to the access pad.
If only Kiera had stayed seated or didn't have such a hyperactive bladder or just waited five minutes!
Romas could have convinced his brother to leave Kiera be, but now, with a blatant challenge from the prisoner, who had dared Kisolm to claim Kiera before he did … Romas trusted his brother, but Evelyn had seen the look on Kisolm's face when he looked at Kiera.
Kiera retorted even as her heart leapt at the prospect.
Kiera was about to grovel to her friend and apologize when the prisoner snatched her, wrapped a thick arm around her neck, and dragged her against his body.
Kiera, we have-- " "Is there anywhere to get some water around here?"
She had already declared her intention of naming the babe Kiera whether it was a boy or girl.
Romas had discarded most of Kiera's things after her disappearance, but Evelyn managed to salvage two boxes and keep them hidden.
Kiera was dumbstruck both by his willingness to teach her and his touch.
That they'd ally with the dishonorable Yirkin was his fault; his affront at taking Kiera from them was enough for them to overcome their distaste at dealing with the Yirkin, whom they viewed as even less civilized than the Anshan.
It's just … god, it's so awful, Kiera.
Kiera maneuvered through the crowd, out of place in her jeans, T-shirt, and armband marking her as Anshan.
