“That’s a fucking lie. One of them made a rude comment about me dancing with him later and LemAN got angry over it. I tried to pull him back but lost my footing, twisting it as I fell. He didn’t do this but your warriors instigated it by flirting outright with me.”
Toro looked furious as he glanced at the other side of the room. She turned her head and paled at seeing both the warriors in question standing there.
“Is what she said true?”
The one who made the rude comment crossed his arms over his chest stubbornly. “The Katieran male made her fall.”
The other warrior glared at his friend. “After you made a comment about her dancing with you. Instead of guarding the door as you should have, you were ogling the females on the dance floor and talking about what you would like to do with one later. The female did fall but I believe it was an accident.”
“Both of you will report to my command center now and wait for me to come and deal with you.”
“Yes, sir.” They left the room.
Toro turned to her. “Stay here until you are completely healed.”
“Toro, could you let LemAN know I’m okay and that it wasn’t his fault?”
“I will have someone update him on your condition.”
She supposed she would have to be the one to talk to LemAN. Right now, she was kind of pissed off at him.
“Are you in pain?” one of the healers asked.
“It’s better to feel pain than to be numb.”
The healer pressed something against her skin and she felt herself lying back on the bed. Maybe a rest would do her some good. She closed her eyes and let the darkness take her.

“Commander LemAN, this is medic JonAH. The Earth female is resting and has been treated.”
“Thank you for letting me know her condition.” He disconnected his comm link.
He was furious that Teagan had gotten hurt, and it was all his fault. It only proved to him that he was no good for any female. After they completed this mission, he would send her back to Katiera where she would be safe.
