IDIC- A New World Order

Part 45 Misdirection PG

"You have a fine son."Jamalia said to Adrianna. She was attempting to disarm the human with small talk. Most specie appreciated compliments to ones young."

"He is a fine boy. I am very proud of him. I was most gratified when Garak asked permission to adopt him. His real father was a monster. "Adrianna shivered. "Garak killed him to save us."

Jamalia was shocked that a human was so causally saying her husband killed a man.

"Normally I would not bring this up. However you know rumors abound and I would not wish this news to come to your empire in a distorted fashion." Adrianna said. She was of course thinking of Garak's commanders. "Garak stood up to a man who was an escaped criminal and saved our lives. I will forever be in his debt for saving my son. I never believed in all the fairy tales my mother told us as children but, Garak was my white knight saving my life and Rordan's. I have never seen so strong a male or one so skilled with a blade. I am really glad he trained in the ancient forms of martial arts." Adrianna did her best to appear to be the besotted wife. She resisted smiling as Jamalia almost smirked. It was more than clear she believed Adrianna to be naive and overly trusting of her husband. That was the impression Adrianna wanted sent back to the Romulan Empire and it would not hurt for the Klingons to learn that Garak at least was able of defending them. She knew that if she appeared to be taken in by Garak then he would stand a far better chance of survival. She hated to be thought of as a fool but far better that then the Empire thinking Garak switched sides. Adrianna was not naive enough to think that even her family could protect her beloved if his people thought he turned traitor.

"He seems like a very interesting male. Then again the good ones are rare to find in any culture. My own mate is a male of high standards and honor." Jamalia said "He has four fine sons whom I am most pleased to call my own." Oddly Jamalia knew this was true she was fond of her husband's sons. She did care for her mate and at times hated the games she played. Yet she was a loyal Romulan so she would play until the game was won. Then perhaps she would be in a position to save those she cared for. "Regrettably I was injured and cannot have children. However may mate had four fine sons so no more were needed. He did not care." She blushed at the last part. It was ironically the truth.



"Well then I would say you are very lucky indeed. I know Garak loves me but he did want children. I am not so sure we would have had a chance without the little one coming along." Adrianna blushed deeply. "I guess you got a rare man. One worth all the stars and heavens. I just hope this one is a boy. Garak is so protective a little girl would never be let out of his sight."

Jamalia chuckled at this and found that the humans were really not so very different after all.

Garak came over to his wife's side. "Amanda needs you honey."

"If you will excuse me please." Adrianna said. She kissed Garak cheek and slipped away.

Once she was out of hearing range Garak's eyes grew cold. "What are you doing here Jamalia?"

She smiled and sipped her wine. "I was sent to check out this colony to see if it could be added to the empire?"

Garak glared and said "Which one?"

Jamalia's hand reached for her blade and it was out and she pointed it at Garak. "I will pretend I did not hear that."

"It is a logical question given the way you are dressed. You look Klingon Sub Commander." He emphasized her rank with distain.

Jamalia glared she softly growled. "I have earned my place Garak. Rank means little to me. Though to be totally honest it is Senior commander now. I will sit in the Senate one day. At least I have not breed a half breed child."

He grinned as she put the blade away. "Well that was unexpected to be sure. However, I am not unhappy with it. It binds me to the family and it forges deeper links with my mate. She loves me and wants the child. I am founding my own house here. In time we will find a way to bring the humans to the Empire. I do believe my children will help lead the way."

Jamalia considered his words for a moment. "A well thought out plan. It may take many years to achieve."

"Perhaps it will. Then again it would be far better for the humans to join us freely. It will cost far less than a war where no one wins." Garak looked over at Jamie "She adopted me making my wife her heir. So when I have a daughter she will one day rule this clan. It is possible to achieve our goals without war. I want to try. It is one of the reasons I have sought to have a child."

"A noble goal. I am pleased you have not abandoned your oath. You always showed promise. Besides we still have that bet on who will make Admiral first."

Garak glared. "Yes, I do try. I am thinking it will be you. What was it 20 liters of ale?"

"Yes and four barrels of Blood wine." Jamalia said.

Garak pulled out a disk and handed it to her. "Here is my private stash. It holds the bet. I doubt I will gain much higher rank in this mission."



"You may be surprised Commander."Jamalia said deciding then and there Garak was going to get a good review from her. He was a loyal Romulan and he was clearly thinking ahead. His idea would bring him glory and power but it might well Bring the humans and their Federation under Romulan control.
