beneath her heavy make up.
“I served the Prince Consort’s predecessor and the Peacock Feathered Emperor before him. I’ve lived in the palace since I was a child. I can’t survive out there the way you can. This is the only life I know.”
Her words settled on him like a lead weight, and he knew there and then he couldn’t turn back. If he did he would share her fate. He wanted to be free at all costs now and he wanted Maya at his side. Hurrying inside, he prayed that he was not too late.

Maya was woken by someone banging hard on the door. Opening her eyes, she looked around groggily. An electro-lantern cast a feeble light over Vron’s Spartan quarters and with a heavy groan she realised that this wasn’t some kind of insane dream.
She really was trapped on an alien planet and she really had had an orgasm in the presence of a virtual stranger.
The banging on the door became more insistent, and gathering her wits she tried to figure out what was going on. Still in her flimsy outfit, she slipped off the bed and hovered anxiously in the middle of the room, not sure what to do.
“Lord Vron, please open up!” a rough voice called through the door. “We have orders from the Prince Consort to collect the slave. Open up now, or we will have to break the door down.”
Fear sliced through Maya. What did that freak want with her? And where the hell was Vron anyway?
“Lord Vron, this is your last warning,” called the guard. “We’re coming in!”
Something heavy banged against the door, making Maya jump. Wood splintered and the door was thrown open. Two guards entered the room warily. When they saw Maya was on her own they marched forward and grabbed her.
“Get off me!” she yelled. “What are you doing?”
“Silence!” snapped one of the guards. “You will come with us.”
Shoving her out of the room, they marched her down the corridor. After what she’d done to the slaver captain that morning, they were not taking any chances and held her tightly. They had gotten part way down the corridor when a figure in grey stepped out in front of them.
“Let her go,” Vron said in a soft voice.
“Lord Vron, we have orders to take her to the sacrifice chamber,” one of the guards said nervously. “We have no choice.”
Vron nodded. “Neither do I.”
Moving in a blur Vron hit the guard square in the stomach, making him keel over. His companion released Maya just in time to receive an upper-cut to his chin. As he went down Vron grabbed Maya’s hand.
“Run,” he said flatly.
She didn’t need telling twice. Clinging to his hand tightly she bolted with him down the rest of the corridor and round the corner. Vron took her to an alcove behind a statue of a coiled serpent.
He reached out and pressed a stone slab on the wall. Maya stared in shock as a secret passage opened in the alcove.
“Quickly! Down the passage before more soldiers come,” Vron urged.
He let go of her hand and urged her down the passage. She plunged into darkness and Vron followed. He snatched up a lantern that was waiting next to the entrance and switched it on. He pressed a switch on the other side of the secret opening and the door sealed shot. Vron’s handsome face was a stoic mask in the light of the lantern. “Come on, we have to get out of the palace as soon as we can.”
He took the lead and Maya followed, utterly clueless at what was going on but with no other choice. They hurried down a roughly hewn passage for several kilometres, and Maya’s feet started to hurt under the hard stone.
With the lantern raised, Vron took her downwards until they came to a cave mouth that opened into a vast cavern complex where the ground was soft soil. Some crude low level lighting had been set up along the cavern walls and Maya saw thousands of conical shaped purple mushrooms growing out of the
