Cabree blinked.“No fucking way.Your problem was that you were confused, and he wouldn’t explain.”

“Yes, and I was frustrated, and I didn’t know how to fix it.I knownow.You kept the tutorial going while I slept.”

“It seemed like a good thing.And it didn’t do any harm.”Cabree smiled.

“How do I sit up?”

Caifo touched the controls, and the bed hummed as she started sitting up.Her side burned a little, and she huffed.

“Riro says you have vestigial gills, and he wasn’t wrong.A friend of yours sent a drone with something, but I have no idea what we are supposed to do with it.”

She chuckled and checked her messages.Khytten’s voice came to her.“The purple is to heal the hole, and the three green ones are to open your gills.Take the green ones a few days apart, or it could be a little sudden.”

She looked at Caifo.“So, where is the purple one?”

He blinked.“I will get it.I have got to see this.”

He left the room and came back with the purple vial.“So, this is a health enhancer?”

“Yes and no.”Cabree said, “It is a healing accelerator tailored to Pria.”

Pria used shaking hands to open the vial, and she sipped.“And she flavoured it with lemon.”She slugged back the last of it and then lifted her medical gown, peeling back the bandages that showed cauterization had been needed.

She and Caifo watched as the skin smoothed and evened out, leaving the stitches on the surface.

“Is she a healing talent?”

“She can be.She can also make her sexual partners healthier, taller, and better endowed.”She chuckled.“According to her primary partner.”

“What about the gills?Do you think that will work?”

“Oh, yes.She healed my spinal injury, so there is no reason that my gills can’t open.”

Caifo’s eye widened.“I would love to meet her.”

“You are as pretty as your cousin, so I am sure she would love to meet you.If Khytten likes you, there is nothing she wouldn’t do for you, but if she doesn’t like you, she’s Ikir.So, you will know when the holes in your body start appearing.”

He blinked.“She’s a healer, but she kills.”

“Teeny bit of a sex-crazed sociopath, but she and Salat are a lovely match.”

He grinned then paused.“You aren’t kidding.”

“Nope.”She glared at Cabree.“When she saw recordings of me dancing, she nearly climbed into her flyer and came down here to show me her appreciation.”

Cabree grinned.“Oops.She really liked the video.Zera is looking at using it as your profile video.They just need audio of you having an orgasm, and the public-facing portion of your file will be done.”

Caifo paused.“You are becoming a Blind Date escort?”

Pria nodded.“I want to know I can trust the people I let touch me.”

Caifo said, “But...I thought you and Riro...”

Pria looked at the blood bag, and it was nearly empty.“The difference between thought and action can be nothing or everything.You choose.”

Caifo nodded.“Excuse me.”

Cabree sighed.“So, you are set against Riro?”
