Year 2315-

Three weeks after her talk with Casey, Jane was sitting on her bed putting on her boots when a light flickered above her dresser. She looked over and saw President Isles. Surprised at this, she stood up at attention quickly. "President Isles, Ma'am."

"At ease, Lieutenant Rizzoli." The woman waved her hand. "I need you to come to my office immediately, I would like to speak with you about a promotion. I know you took your captains exam. It's time we discussed this." The President flickered and disappeared. Jane quickly finished putting on her boots.

Her captains exam was a week long testing cycle and she knew she had nailed it. She ran part of the way across the capital campus and arrived at the Presidential office. The building was a rather small looking. It almost looked exactly like Jane's house where she grew up. There were stairs in the front and she jumped up them as a light came and scanned her face. She stood for a moment until the door slid open. She walked through the entryway and saw Doris sitting at her desk. "Lieutenant Rizzoli, you made good time today." Jane flashed a young woman blushed slightly and pressed a button. The door behind her opened.

President Constance Isles came walking towards her. "Lieutenant! It's so good to see you. I apologize for not seeing you sooner. I've been pretty busy the last few weeks."

Jane accepted the hug that the woman had always insisted on giving. "Quite alright, Ma'am." She smiled. Constance smiled at Doris and walked back into her office. Jane followed but not before saying, "Doris, if you're free for dinner tonight..." Doris gasped and nodded fiercely. Jane winked at her and disappeared behind the door.

"Please have a seat on the couch. This doesn't have to be a formal meeting. I consider you a friend, Jane." Jane did as she was told. "Now, let's get the business out of the way. You scored quite high on your exam. In fact, no one has ever scored as highly as you did. I'd like to start calling you Captain Rizzoli, if that's alright with you." Jane beamed and nodded. "Excellent! With this promotion does come a new assignment. Would you be alright with that?"

"Of course! I look forward to serving Cordova however you see fit." Jane shifted in her seat slightly.

Constance folded her hands in her lap and took a deep breath. "You have done a fantastic job heading up the cabinet security. We are going to give your post to Second Lieutenant Frost in your place."

"He'll do a great job."

"Yes, I know that he will. Your new assignment is closer to my heart and very important to me. Your new assignment is quite simple. You are the new security for my daughter, Maura." The air seemed to suddenly be sucked out of the room. Jane suddenly felt dizzy and froze. "Please don't think of this as a demotion. You are rising in rank and therefore are needed for a very important cause. Maura travels the world caring for the sick of other clans and teaches them about medicine. However, now that you are officially a captain, you must be told of the worldly threats that are still abundant outside of Cordova. Maura recently just returned from a trip but almost didn't make it. Her group was attacked."

Jane attempted to process this information. Of course, she had heard rumors of unrest in the other clans across the ocean. However, she had never seen any proof in any of her travels. "Attacked? Who would attack a group of doctors?"

"Since, you've now have the proper clearance it's time we talked about what is going on out there. I believe in peace. We've lived that way for almost three hundred years. Other clans fear our way of life. They don't understand how to not live in strife. They believe that we are too strict. That we have too many rules and regulations. However, they are more than willing to accept the food, supplies, technology, and medicine that we send to people all over the world. We rarely ask for much in return. Some people are just ungrateful and do not feel the same way that we do about living our lives peacefully."

"The unknowns? Are they the ones that we identify as future problems?"

Constance dropped her head, "It is so unfortunate, but it is necessary to have us be such a strong, peaceful people. This is what keeps us from repeating history. The history where we were almost extinct. Jane, we don't have a crime problem in our country. Do you think that we've just been lucky?"

Jane looked at her, "My little brother was taken when he was seven."

"Yes, I know. He had certain genetic markers that indicated certain...attributes. I'm so sorry for your mother, I spent quite a while with her when Thomas was taken. She's a good woman." Jane had no idea. She had never talked about the day Tommy was taken with her mother. She only had a week to spend with her and didn't want to dwell on the saddest moments of her life.

"Tell me more about the assignment."

"Well, you will be her personal security it will be a twenty-four hour a day, seven days a week. She's been resting since her return. You start immediately and you are to report to her quarters as soon as you leave here. We will have your things brought to her place. There is a room set up for you there."

"Yes, Ma'am." Jane stood up and Constance followed. Jane walked out and saw a smiling Doris. "I'm sorry, as much as I would love to see you tonight...I'm on a new assignment. I have to cancel dinner."

Doris's face fell. "Oh. Um. I understand, Lieutenant."

"Actually, it's Captain now." Jane smiled and swung her hips slightly as she took a step closer. Pleased with herself when Doris looked down and noticed. "I would love to stay here and chat, but duty calls." With that she turned and walked out the door. Leaving a very disappointed assistant sitting alone at her desk.

The walk to Dr. Isles quarters took her to the far side of the capital's campus. Isolated from the rest of the city. She paused at the bottom step and took a deep breath. She walked up as the scanner read her face and made the announcement to the inside of the house. After a few moments, the door opened. Jane stepped inside. "Captain Rizzoli." came her voice. Jane looked over and saw Maura standing in front of her. "My mother informed me that you are to be my new shadow." She was wearing the customary doctor uniform, a white button up with the Cordova emblem over the left chest. Her blonde hair rested on her shoulders. Her green eyes seemed to sparkle.

"If I may, I think we should look at it as making a new friend." Jane stood confidently and clasped her hands behind her back. "Perhaps, we can start by talking about your schedule."

"Straight to business. I like that."

"I've always found that getting the business part out of the way is always best." Jane smirked and she watched as Dr. Isles' eyes widened slightly and a smile grew on her face.

"I travel every other three weeks. When I'm gone, generally, my team and I collect data and we provide medical assistance as needed. When I'm home, I try to relax, so you will have some time off. I'm the one who requested you, I've heard a lot about you over the years."

"All good I hope," Jane smiled again.

"Of course, you've always had a quite impressive resume. I know I've always enjoyed seeing you from time to time."

"Seeing me?"

"We've interacted on occasion over the years. I know many women in the capital, they've all sung your praises." The Doctor raked her eyes down the Captain's body and then came back up and landed on her eyes. She was even more captivating standing this close. Jane was suddenly embarrassed and she brought a hand up to her neck and scratched it.

Jane did have a reputation with a few women around the capital. She was a highly decorated member of the most elite branch of the military in Cordova. She was also very attractive. She didn't tend to get too attached to anyone since she was forbidden to marry. Now looking into those green eyes, she wished she had a different assignment, this was going to be more difficult than she thought.

"I don't know about that. I do know that I've never seen a more beautiful woman than the one I'm seeing right now." She shook her head at how quickly she dropped her professional facade around this woman. Jane was unsure if the other woman even remembered the kiss.

"Captain, need I remind you that I am Cordova's President's only daughter." Maura took a step forward. Jane felt a dare.

"I am well aware, Dr. Isles."

"You've been watching me for years, Captain. I also know that I've definitely been watching you. I really don't have the time to dance around anything with you, especially if we are going to be spending as much time together as I hope we will. I don't have the patience for it."

"We don't have to dance, Ma'am." She regretted her compliment and now wanted to bring it back to business. Her stomach flipped.

"You can call me Maura, please." She took another step towards the brunette. "I've already tasted these lips." She reached out her finger and touched the edge of Jane's bottom lip.

There went trying to keep this professional, Jane thought. "I hope that doesn't affect our working relationship." Jane smirked and refrained from reaching out and grabbing the blonde.

"Quite the contrary. I'm fairly certain it can only enhance the experience." They stood there looking at each for a moment and Jane felt a stir inside. Maura spoke again, "I don't have anything else to do today and I really want to feel your hands on me." Maura was more bold than she thought. She hesitated for a moment, but there was something about being in such close proximity with her. This time Jane didn't hold herself back and grabbed the smaller woman by her hips and pulled her against her. She smiled as she felt and heard the woman gasp at the sudden contact.

"Maura..." Jane leaned down and pressed her lips softly against the Doctor's. This kiss wasn't as hard or hurried as that day in the corridor. It was slow and deliberate. After a few moments, Maura reached up to place her hand in soft brunette locks and licked Jane's bottom lip. Jane pulled back and looked down.

"Wow, that's even better than I remember." Maura said.

"Don't you think this is a little fast?"

"I've been watching you for years, Jane. I've been attracted to you since I first saw you in my mother's vehicle when she picked you up for the academy. We will have the time to get to know each other, but for now I just really need this." She pushed herself up onto the tips of her toes and kissed Jane again.

Jane knew that she wanted this too. She didn't want to ruin the moment by over thinking. She bent down and momentarily broke the kiss as her hands ran down the back of Maura's leg as she picked her up. Maura immediately wrapped her legs around the woman and smiled. "You know where the bedroom is," she whispered. Jane's legs began to move with purpose through two doors that opened as she neared them and closed behind her. She walked into Maura's bedroom as the kiss opened up and she ran her tongue into her mouth. Both women moaned as Maura unwrapped her legs and stood back on the floor. She took a step back and bit the corner of her lip and unbuttoned her shirt and took it off. Jane watched her as the pants, bra, and small panties came off in quick succession. Looking at the beautifully sculpted body in front of her, she realized that she was over dressed. Quickly, she removed her boots and removed her weapon from her hip.

She removed her uniform as Maura watched intently. Jane noticed the hunger in her eyes and she took a purposeful step towards her. Maura turned around and faced the bed. Jane came up behind her and grabbed her, pressing against her as she started to kiss the side of her neck. A hand came up and grabbed her head in encouragement. Leaving small nips and licks along her neck she moved down to her shoulder.

Moving her hand from her stomach to her breast, Jane palmed and squeezed gently. Maura pushed her chest out at the contact and grabbed Jane's other hand, lacing their fingers together. Jane pulled her hand away and forced Maura to turn around as she bent slightly and grabbed her bare backside as her lips met the smaller woman's. Tilting her head just a bit, she pulled back slightly and brushed her lips again before a welcoming mouth opened as Jane's tongue lightly touched hers. Maura's hips began to rock slightly and Jane pushed her back with her body not letting go of her ass.

Jane relished the moment as her body was pressed up against the woman she had dreamed about for years. She felt Maura's tongue lightly brush against her own and she slid her hands up her smooth back to her shoulders as she took a step forward and pushed Maura backwards onto the bed. Maura landed with a gasp and looked up at her with an intensity Jane had never seen before in a lover. Jane climbed up and over her as Maura scooted toward the head of the bed. As the brunette slid her leg between Maura's, she held herself above her and looked down into her eyes. Maura rocked her hips against the strong leg and reached back and felt the muscles in Jane's back and ran her fingers over them.

Jane pressed her leg against her hips and could feel her arousal. She lowered her face and took in her bottom lip and sucked on it, Maura moaned against her. Her heart was racing and Maura felt on fire against her body. She wove her hands into blonde curls and broke the kiss with a gasp. Maura pulled Jane down and lightly bit her strong chin. When Jane moaned in appreciation, she continued with light bites and licks along Jane's jaw line to her earlobe. She nibbled and sucked Jane's earlobe and placed a soft kiss behind Jane's left ear. She could feel the shiver that went down Jane's body.

Jane reached her hand down and cupped Maura slowly sliding a finger between her and pushed against her swollen clit. This caused a sharp jerk from the woman beneath her and Jane smirked into her kiss. She didn't want to wait, she quickly pushed two fingers inside and began to move them in and out. Maura caught on quickly and began to enjoy the feeling of Jane as she moved her hips with her. Eager to return the favor, Maura moved her hand down and followed Jane's lead.

They moved together and quickened their speed. Jane cried out and slowed her hips and put more pressure against the other woman as she worked against her. Soon enough, Maura crashed over the edge. Jane rolled over and laid on her back staring at the ceiling. Maura leaned over and laughed. "Jane, I've wanted to do that for so long." Jane worked to calm her heavy breathing and smirked. She turned her head and looked at Maura.

"That was incredible." Jane said as Maura's face lit up. "Although, I feel like I should have taken you to dinner first." Both women laughed. Maura leaned over and kissed her.

She leaned back, "It's too early for dinner, but we could have lunch together. Maybe talk a little, start to get to know one another."

"What could you possibly want to know about me?"

"I want to know everything there is to know about Captain Jane Rizzoli. Starting with why you've never approached me before."

Jane looked back up at the ceiling. "Ah. Well, you should know that answer already."

"My mother's stupid rule. What made you break it today?" Jane looked at her incredulously.

"Seriously? Have you seen yourself in a mirror?" Maura laughed and kissed her again. She got out of bed, grabbed a robe and put it on.

"Let's get something to eat." Jane smiled and looked at her clothes on the floor. She got up and started to redress.
