Dr. Ranya Wodin was a conflicted woman.
She spent months preparing for an implantation surgery. This was not necessarily unusual in her profession, but she was doing all of this work for a boy!
A boy!
How could she ever imagine that she would labor so much in order to please a boy, and a foreigner at that? Her entire being recoiled at the thought of serving a boy!
Her Hexer friends and colleagues back in the Hegemony would definitely laugh at her if they could see her now!
"Damn you, Gloriana!" She angrily hissed. "Damn you and your stupid boyfriend!"
She had nothing against Ves Larkinson. He was just a foreign boy who tried to make the most out of his relationship with Gloriana. Though the gulf between their respective stations was as vast as the gap between the Milky Way and Andromeda, Gloriana paid no mind to it at all! She would willingly marry a pig if the beast was capable of boosting her design philosophy!
