Thankfully, that guy wasn’t there anymore so we returned to the ship unhindered.

Looks like Amber was right all along.

The first thing I did when we went inside the ship was push Amber inside the shower and then started scrubbing her clean.

Obviously, that led to us having sex inside the shower and I pounded her standing up from both in front and behind until her voice that was screaming my name was echoing throughout the ship.

By the time we were done, Amber had collapsed on our bed and had fallen asleep.

See? I knew we woke up too early which resulted in us not receiving enough sleep last night.

Just look at her all tuckered out after only two rounds. Normally she would be up for five at the very least.

As I mentioned earlier, we didn’t have any plans so it’s not like we need to be up and about at this time of the day either so I let her sleep.

That’s why I decided to give Mara a call to ask if there were any Decoders on this station.

The call went through after two rings and I was greeted by the sight of the doctor wearing a usual white coat and seated in her office.

This time however, there were the sounds of screaming coming from the background.

She smiled the moment she saw me, “Hello Tera, it’s nice to see you.”

“Hello Mara, it’s good to see you as well. Err… Should I be worried?”

She cocked her head to the side, “Worried? Why? Are you sick? Or did Amber do something stupid again?”

“No… I’m talking about you… Since there’s some screaming coming from over there.”

She paused for a moment before reverting back to her smiling face, “Oh yes, there’s no need to worry. Someone is just renting my operating table to torture someone. I’m not in danger, thank you for the concern.”

…

What?

Ok, yeah sure… Why not, right? I’m sure she sterilises the table properly afterwards anyway.

I nodded, “I see… Err… Did you receive my package?”

Her smile got a bit wider, “Oh yes I did, you shouldn’t have, Tera. But I enjoyed every moment of tasting it. Thank you once again.”

Yeah, I felt a bit responsible for Amber constantly teasing her about the food I was cooking for her so I tried making use of a delivery service to ship some food to her.

I sent it to her while we were still in the Cietai system so it only took three days to reach her, thus all I needed was to make something that could last the trip.

Nothing too fancy, just some slow cooked pseudo ratatouille that I froze and sent over to her with some instructions on how she should reheat it.

Seems like she received it without any problems.

Mara then leaned forward slightly, “And what is Amber up to? No doubt she got you involved in something stupid again, didn’t she? You are in the Denibi system now, right?”

I nodded, “Yeah. Though I would say that I’m the one who brought trouble since we just recently went on an escort mission I picked and that was… Pretty chaotic.”

“Oh yes, I heard about that. It was indeed tough on you to guard that council member.”

I blinked, “You knew who our escort target was?”

“Of course. I would only charge someone maybe ten thousand Credits at most for information like that, depending on who’s asking of course. The gang who he pissed off? I’d make them pay fifty thousand at the very least.”

Err… I don’t even know how big that would make it but ok?

She then steepled her fingers in front of her, “But I suspect you have something else that you need which is why you are calling me?”

I gave her a wry smile, “Couldn’t I have just called to chat?”

She gave me an amused smile, “Mmm… Unless you had a big fight with Amber, I doubt you would call me on your own without her. Where is she, by the way?”

I went towards the bed and leaned back, showing Amber fast asleep with a happy smile on her face to Mara.

“Seems like she’s doing well enough. So what do you need, Tera? Information about another Decoder perhaps?”

I went back to where I was before raising an eyebrow, “How did you know?”

“Lucky guess to be honest. I assume the data chips might have led you to even more of them and you need to decode them as well.”

“Ah… That’s not exactly what happened but I guess it’s close enough. I do need something that can read it though. Do you know anywhere around Denibi station that might have one?”

She giggled, which was almost drowned out by the screams coming from the background, “I’ll do you one better, Tera. I can direct you to someone who can upgrade your personal terminal into a Decoder. Though I would have to ask if you have a million Credits on hand?”

“Wait… I can change my personal terminal into a Decoder for just a million Credits?”

“The person you’ll be looking for there owes me a few favours so he’ll be willing to do it for just a million Credits just to strike one off the list.”

‘Just’ a million Credits she says… But I guess… Yeah, that’s quite cheap for what its capabilities are.

“But I feel bad for making you do that for me… How much would it be if it weren’t for the favour?”

She waved her hand, “It’s fine, Tera. I don’t mind. In fact, I don’t even have any use for him in the first place so these favours would have gone unclaimed.”

“But my personal terminal might not be like other terminals though… Would it still work?”

“Well, you could just go and see him since he owns a Decoder anyway. If your personal terminal isn’t compatible, then you could also use Amber’s or just make use of his temporarily.”

I nodded, “Makes sense. In that case, I’ll take up that offer.”

“Fufu~ I’ll send the details to your terminal in a bit. Now do you need anything else?”

“Not at the moment. Do you want to try any other food?”

“Oh, you really do spoil me, Tera. At this rate, I might not be able to live without eating your cooking anymore. Is that how you are trying to rope me into your crew?”

I was about to deny that when she giggled, “I’m just joking, Tera. You don’t need to send me anything but if you do want to anyway, I certainly won’t be picky about anything you send.”

“It’s just a small payment for all the help that you’ve given us.”

“Oh, all the information I’ve given is barely even enough to pay back for what you’ve made, Tera. I truly am grateful to have met you.”

“You’re exaggerating.”

“Fufufu~ You really are cute, Tera. Anyway, I should go. Talk to you soon, ok? And if Amber makes any trouble at all, feel free to spank her for me.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

We then ended the call and I only needed to wait for a minute before I received a message from Mara.

Opening the message revealed the location of the guy and the directions I needed to take to find him.

Seems like the guy was located quite deep within the station on one of the lower floors. Even lower than the entertainment district.

It almost looks like this guy set up his ship in the maintenance area of the station where no one would go. Discover stories at My Virtual Library Empire

Definitely someone shady.

I looked back to see Amber still sleeping soundly and thought about what I should do today. Because joining her in bed is looking to be quite a tempting thing right about now.

You know what? Maybe I’ll do just that.

But before that, I’ll go check on Lea first.

I left my room and went over to the other one, the door sliding open for me to enter and revealing an Alv in nothing but her underwear standing over the hydroponics garden.

“Lea?” I called out.

Her ears perked up and she turned back to greet me, “Oh, is there something you needed, Captain?”

“Why are you in your underwear?”

She tilted her head, “Did I not tell Captain before? I usually dress like this when I’m comfortable.”

Oh yeah, she did… She even hinted that she might go naked as well… I totally forgot.

“Right, err… I’m just here to check up on you if you needed anything.”

“Not at all, Captain. I should be asking you that question, actually. Do you need anything from me?” She asked, standing up fully to turn towards me.

Crap, just seeing her like that is already making me a little horny… I wonder if Amber would mind if I woke her up for a quick round before we cuddle to sleep?

“Ah, no, it’s fine… I’m gonna go take a quick nap so… Wake me up if anything happens ok?”

“Of course, Captain. Have a good rest.”

I returned back to my room and was about to wake Amber up until I realised she was lying on the bed with her legs spread open and wearing nothing underneath.

…

She definitely isn’t sleeping right now.

Alright then, let’s do it.
