"So she wanted you to keep an eye on the people she hired as mercenaries?" Cassian asked as they talked about why Brigid had placed the other cultists on a different ship, leaving Kirja alone on this one.
"Not just me…" she said, glancing at him before adding, "you too…"

One of her legs rested over Cassian as they lay on their sides, close together, his arm around her while his hand stayed on her thigh, holding her a little closer.
Kirja had hated it at first—lying naked with him—but she was, by nature, someone who loved comfort and tended to be a bit lazy when she could afford it. And right now… this was comfortable.
Cassian chuckled, amused. The last time they'd met, she'd claimed she couldn't even go a few seconds without wanting him. And now, she'd arranged for him to be on a completely different ship for what felt like a pointless reason.
