Summary
Yusuf gasps. “What a scoundrel you’ve become, Nicky.”
“Scoundrel!” Nicky’s eyes flare with offense.
Yusuf stifles a grin and continues, “Planet-hopping like some vigilante, with your disruptor rifle.”
“You don’t like the rifle.” Nicky’s gaze turns despondent.
He likes how Nicky used it. “It’s very illegal.”
“Under Imperial law,” Andy says over her shoulder.
“Even autocratic regimes have good laws now and then.” Yusuf leans closer to Nicky and says in a conspiratorial undertone, “I introduced that legislation.”
The smile playing on Nicky’s lips makes Yusuf feel like he’s at the center of a trap that’s about to be sprung. It’s a shame they don’t have time for anything else; Yusuf would like to get nice and close to that smile, to see it from all angles, to kiss its corners. Did he ever truly have delusions of resisting the way this man acts on his heart like the gravitational pull of a moon?
Nicky says, “Then, from a certain point of view, you are the one who made me an outlaw and a scoundrel.”
To hell with words. When Yusuf gets him alone in one of the rooms waiting for them, he’s going to show Nicky everything he means to him.
