"Haha, this couch is so soft!" one of the women exclaimed, sinking deeper into the cushions.

"Right? It's even more comfortable than the bed in my room," another woman agreed, stretching out and looking completely at ease.

"Do you think we could build a TV someday? Or maybe even a mahjong table?"

"Ooh, now that's a really good idea!" another woman replied, her eyes lighting up at the thought.

The girls bounced happily on the cushions, one after another, and since the couch

    Vivian Vale: Of course. About three days ago I found two blueprints in a mine shaft. Both were for a refined iron forge, a machine that produces refined iron. I've already used one myself, so I'll trade you the other.The two of them settled the terms quickly, and moments later the blueprint changed hands. In return, Caleb Mercer sent over a bottle of healing serum.He turned the blueprint over in his hands, studying it carefully.Refined Iron Forge: requires 100 zombie cores, 1,000 common stone, 1,000 common iron, and 500 pounds of common soil.Caleb propped his chin on one hand, thinking it over. Vivian had already built one of these forges herself, which meant she already understood just how valuable zombie cores really were.That wouldn't do. Not yet, anyway. If word got out too soon, his whole money making scheme would take a serious hit.So before ending the conversation, he added one more message. "I'd like you to keep the secret of the zombie co

    "Keira, you... you're being even bolder than me tonight?"Keira's lashes fluttered, her eyes half lidded with a teasing glint as she leaned in close to Caleb Mercer's ear, her breath warm against his skin. "I heard men like it when a girl plays hard to get," she murmured, voice dripping with mischief. "But I'd rather take the lead myself. Do you like that?""Of course I do." The corner of Caleb's mouth curled upward. He tipped Keira's delicate chin up with two fingers, his tone leaving no room for argument. "Though I should warn you, I'm not the type to sit back and let someone else run the show. Especially not in this."Before Keira could respond, he flipped her over in one swift motion, catching her completely off guard and drawing a startled cry from her.Some time later, though neither of them could say exactly how much time had passed, Caleb finally stepped out of Keira's room."If you're still that clumsy, maybe you should spend more time practicing,"

    Caleb Mercer knocked three times in quick succession, rapping his knuckles against Jenna Cole's door as he waited for her to answer.Inside, Jenna had been staring at that door for what felt like an eternity, ears straining for exactly this sound. When it finally came, a slow, satisfied smile spread across her face, the smile of someone whose scheme had just worked perfectly.Ivy Moore's words drifted back through her mind, the advice of a true scheming adviser: make him remember you by making him come to you. Only then would she hold the upper hand.Tonight's little performance had been bait all along, and judging by that knock, the fish had taken it.A soft, amused laugh escaped Jenna as the thought curved her eyes into twin crescents. She drew a slow breath, composed herself, and carefully eased the door open, only to find Caleb standing outside with an expression as dark and ominous as a storm cloud.His eyes swept over her once, searching for the sexy o

    Keira Quinn noticed that Caleb Mercer's gaze had stayed locked on her figure the entire time, and instead of taking offense, she squared her shoulders and pushed her chest out a little more, making the view even harder to ignore.Caleb's eyes went wide on the spot.He swallowed hard, and for a moment he genuinely could not think of a single thing to say.Seeing him flustered like that, Keira let out a soft laugh. "Caleb, I've thought it through.""Thought what through?""My planet is gone. Every last human who lived on it is dead too. I'm the only one left.""Planet M-78 shouldn't just end like that. I couldn't save it, so the best I can do is create more people from M-78, as many as I'm able.""So you understand what I'm telling you. Since I'm the only one left, I have to carry the duty of the next generation too. I can't let the people of M-78 die out completely.""That's why I want you to understand my thinking. Caleb, I'm asking you to hel

    At those words, Caleb Mercer's eyes lit up immediately. He gestured for Evelyn Frost to continue."I've watched how the Trading Hall works," Evelyn said. "It's nothing more than one side naming a price and the other side paying it. That kind of Exchange is far too simple, too crude for what we could actually do.""Here's what I propose. We photograph something like the spicy strips, post it in the Trading Hall, and let everyone in the World Hub know exactly how rare and hard won that kind of luxury really is.""We let that sink in for three days. Let the story spread, let people talk. Then, on the third day, we announce an auction. Highest bidder takes it, and only one pack goes up for sale. Not a single one more.""After that, the people who lose the bidding will be desperate. They won't be able to help themselves, they'll come to us directly, privately, begging for a deal. That's when we hold all the leverage. I could probably push the price even higher than th

He frowned, thinking it through, then his eyes lit up. "Ah, that's it."A moment later he had conjured two tables and eight stools to go with them.He looked over his handiwork and nodded, satisfied. Now they'd have somewhere to
