Chapter 129

Whistling a jaunty tune, Seth waved and said hello to the cyborgs he saw on his way to Aramus' quarters. Most stared at him dumbstruck. It might have been his lack of shoes and shirt. Maybe it was his grin and the fact that he ran, staying out of reach of Anastasia, who shot irritated mind commands at him, Halt your stupid, mischief-making ass right this instant.

As if. He rather enjoyed having her chase him. Besides, he really wanted to see Aramus. The grumpy bastard was, whether he liked it or not, one of Seth's best friends, and he'd probably been worried sick at Seth's disappearance. I'm just being a good ol' buddy and reassuring him of my wellbeing. Nah. He just wanted to meet the woman nuts enough to get cozy with Aramus.
