Captain Liliana's eyes meet yours across the table, and she smiles warmly. "Yes?" she asks softly, her voice barely above a whisper. "What is it, my love?"

Her heart swells with affection for you; even though they are both stretched thin by the demands of their roles aboard this ship, they have managed to create something beautiful together. A family. And in just a few short months, they will welcome a new addition into that family: their child.

Captain Liliana's lips curve into a wicked grin, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "Of course," she says, her voice low and sultry. "After dinner."

She stands from the table, swaying her hips as she walks toward you. Her hands glide up your chest, over your shoulders, to where her fingers curl around the back of your neck.
