Reeks: Mates of the Mylos

- CarlOne
- minute
- I'm
- talking
- with
- my
- Mylos
- colleagues
- about
- the
- case
- we're
- working
- on
- and
- Jolar's
- upcoming
- wedding
- plans.
- The
- next,
- I'm
- off
- with
- my
- FBI
- partner,
- Peterson,
- to
- see
- about
- transferring
- us
- permanently
- to
- Commander
- Sachuu's
- team
- within
- the
- Bride
- Fleet.
- The
- only
- snag
- is,
- to
- qualify,
- one
- of
- us
- has
- to
- apply
- to
- be
- matched,
- and
- given
- that
- I'm
- the
- gay
- one
- out
- of
- us
- two,
- that
- means
- me.
- Not
- that
- I
- really
- mind.
- I've
- not
- had
- much
- luck
- dating,
- with
- people
- either
- horrified
- that
- I'm
- in
- law
- enforcement,
- or
- wanting
- to
- know
- gruesome
- details
- of
- past
- and
- current
- cases,
- or
- getting
- fed
- up
- with
- the
- sudden
- call
- outs
- and
- sheer
- amount
- of
- time
- working
- active
- cases
- can
- take.
- Seeing
- the
- truth
- of
- how
- perfectly
- suited
- all
- the
- matches
- have
- been,
- I'm
- game.
- If
- Mr.
- Perfect
- truly
- is
- here
- waiting
- for
- me,
- I'm
- ready
- to
- sign
- on
- the
- dotted
- line.PolmarWhen
- the
- Council
- expanded
- the
- mate
- matching
- programs
- so
- that
- I
- was
- included,
- I
- felt
- a
- glimmer
- of
- hope
- that
- somewhere,
- down
- on
- that
- bright
- blue
- and
- white
- planet
- far
- below,
- my
- mate
- was
- just
- waiting
- for
- us
- to
- discover
- each
- other.
- I
- just
- hoped
- whoever
- he
- was,
- he
- wouldn't
- be
- disappointed.
- I'm
- a
- pilot,
- but
- I
- don't
- fly
- anything
- as
- cool
- as
- a
- fighter.
- No,
- I
- fly
- a
- shuttle
- and
- not
- one
- that
- usually
- ferries
- passengers.
- I'm
- what
- one
- of
- the
- human
- males
- aboard
- I've
- befriended
- calls
- a
- 'space
- trucker'.
- That
- is,
- I
- fly
- cargo
- shuttles
- back
- and
- forth
- to
- bring
- goods
- up
- from
- Earth
- and
- between
- cargo
- ships
- from
- our
- home
- space.
- Occasionally,
- I
- deliver
- goods
- from
- one
- ship
- within
- the
- fleet
- to
- another
- too.
- It's
- not
- exciting,
- but
- I
- like
- it.
- It's
- predictable
- enough
- to
- feel
- comforting.Actually
- getting
- matched
- was
- surprise
- enough.
- Neither
- of
- us
- ever
- expected
- what
- came next.
