Apolonia relaxed in the couch after kicking off her shoes. Her light green skinned glistened with intoxicate beauty.

” So what is your assessment of the guest we met today.” Longstreet asked.

“Professional or personal.” She said smiling.

“Is there a difference to you?” He answered back as he took off his shoes and jacket and lifted her legs to sit under them.

“Ohh that hurts.” She played back.

“Well Shinzak is a cautious man but not so cautious he wont politic some. He could be manipulated through is ambitious ego I think. However if what you told me is true one would have to be careful. He is looking under beds and that usually means he has something to hide under his own.” she said.

Longstreet had to admit she knew how to analyze a mark. He could not have done better.

“Agreed.” He answered.

“The little Ferengi came off like any other powerful Ferengi. Which is to say keep your eye on that one. He is up to something or will be soon. Potential though because even the smartest Ferengi has a weak spot for the female species.” She added. “The others you already know so not much more to say. I will keep clear of the Chief. He doesn’t seem into women anymore at his age and knows most of the scams. Better to avoid.”

“Yea the Chief has been around the block so you better watch your little games.” He cautioned.

“Anyway I was more interested in the tall Security Chief.” she said leaning over and rubbing his chin with her hand.

“Humm. I wonder about you Apolonia I really do.” He said looking over to her.

“Me too sometimes, me too.” She added staring at him but looking beyond.

The next day they were eating breakfast. To Longstreets surprise Apolonia had prepared it or gotten it somehow on her own and it was not from the replicator.

It was some version of Orion eggs over potatoes of some sort.

“So we are a couple in this scam or not. Because it usually does not hurt my chances much either way.” She said casually.

“Well that would only matter if you were running some hustles and since your not then it does not matter.” Longstreet said casually.

“Oh of course. Just a test.” She joked but had not been joking.

First she really did want to know where she was standing with him. Second it really did not matter if she was going to run a con. It usually helped.
