“Light’s off.” Riley stood up and picked up the torn shirt. The lights immediately dimmed to a comfortable sleeping level. Victor stood aside politely to let Riley pass, then followed him. The female doctor hurried past them and into the room with a small electronic device in hand. The other doctor stood by the door waiting for Riley.
“See that Lexx is not disturbed.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Riley kept walking, not bothering a look back to see if Victor was still following him. He expected him to. Obviously the human had questions, but Riley also had things that he needed to do before he turned in for the evening rot.
“You’re not going to keep following me, are you?” Riley stopped in front of the door to Vic and Keith’s room, giving Victor the opportunity to choose. “I have 28 dice to check on.”
