Summary
The heel of Ortegas’ boot catches him in the shin for what has to be the one-hundred-thousandth time since their imprisonment and he’s had enough. It’s not his fault the Trelledorians didn’t buy their cover story; Chris happens to think he’d done a very convincing job pretending to be completely infatuated with Ortegas. She’s the one who blew their cover somehow.
When she lifts her foot to kick him again, he launches a preemptive strike.
“Ow! Hey!” Ortegas glares at him and bends at the waist to rub her calf where he kicked her back. “Jerk.”
“You’re the one who started it,” Chris complains.
Pike and Ortegas go undercover as a couple but the locals don’t buy it and they’re promptly imprisoned.
