19. Asleep

Few things could shock Kuvira anymore, but for a moment, the new Emperor looked as though she’d seen a ghost; Baatar was asleep at ten at night?  The mech fight earlier must have taken a lot out of him.

That just made the prospect of waking him harder.

With a sigh, the commander approached the austere camp bed where her fiancé rested and gently nudged his shoulder.  ”Baatar, it’s time to wake up,” she whispered, not wanting to shake him from sleep too harshly.
