Accepting (The Return Of The Nine Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
The Nine took breakfast very seriously.Tiera felt a little uncomfortable wearing such loose clothing when everyone around her was wearing semi-formal wear. She finally asked, “Isn’t there a version of the Nine clothing that isn’t elegant or formfitting?”Tonos sat back and sipped his tea. “Not on the mother ship. We save casual clothing for when we are ground bound. Up here, we are all on duty whether there is an active battle or not. We dress accordingly.”She winced. “So, my clothing choice?”“Is not appropriate, but you are not a member of the crew and so you can wear what you wish.”She sighed. “Is there any option for me that will keep us from touching but let me fit in a little bit more?”He grinned, “I thought you would never ask. Come along.”He got to his feet, pressed his fingers to the pay pad, and they walked out together.Tiera could feel the heat of his hand against her spine, but he never actually made contact. It was frustrating and intriguing all at the same time.They were in a commercial centre—kiosks, cafes and small shops lined the walkway.With him herding her along, they ended up in a shop that held clothing in a vast array of configurations.
