Getting Familiar...
Already the first night of the trip is almost over, it was a mostly quiet journey is as Mando was very deep in concentration. While Fiora would take naps on and off.. although, sleep didn’t come very easily while being terrified for Mikka and wondering how this was going to end..
On a positive side, Fiora considered herself blessed that Mando provided such a feeling of security.. she didn’t even tremble or feel panicked. Well, at least... fear wasn’t what is causing her emotions to stir in many ways.
Over the past few hours, Observing the powerful but determined bounty was like watching something beautiful consumer her sense of sight. The way he moved, like a feline that’s a predator hunting to survive... His voice, although the modulator in his helmet altered it.. It still might as well be velvet ribbons wrapping itself around her body, warming her through and through.
Powerful beskar covers every inch of his body.. However, heat floods her veins at the notion of guessing just how much muscle is underneath the armor and how strong his embrace would feel. Especially, in the heat of passion.

A short while after taking a break to eat and drink, Mando decided to take a minute from flying.. switching controls so the ship floated on it’s own. He softly clears his throat, taking Fiora out of her thoughts.. She looks up at him and smiles..
“How are you enjoying the trip so far?” Mando decided to start the conversation off simply..
Fiora giggles, not expecting that to start the conversation.. “I’m doing perfectly fine, and it’s actually quite soothing being this far out in the galaxy.” She replies..
A soft chuckle rises from Mando’s chest, not very many apart from Grogu ever actually would say that they enjoyed traveling with him.. However, it feel good that she was comfortable with him..
“I’m glad to hear it, I know there’s not much to go by here”.. he said gesturing to ship... “But at least I’m doing something right with providing you an escape, within the skies and the stars”...
“And protection.. remember?” Fiora smiles with sassiness..
“How could I forget? Thank you for reminding me.” The bounty laughs softly. Fiora felt butterflies flutter all through her whenever she heard the sweet sound.. Especially since he’s very subtlety flirting.
“So, when was the last time you traveled to Naboo?” He asked, curiosity laced in his voice, he wanted to know more about what lead up to this situation..
“About two years ago, Mikka was already working on plans for the green house.. her Orchid seed collection had grown greatly. At the time there was no Kygen and his madness.. just bringing beauty and nourishment to Naboo, it was beautiful” The soft sound of bliss in her voice..
Mando is drawn to her happy reminiscing, it had been a while since he’d seen anything like that, he found it refreshing.
“It sounds like a wonderful time for life in the galaxy. However, look at how the tables have turned.. I’m taking you to Naboo on an emergency passage, your friend is in danger and it turns out that both you and I have had bad experiences with the same galactic scum.. How do you feel about that?” Mando is smirking from behind his helmet..
Fiora smiles softly, standing up from her seat.. taking a few steps in front of Mando.. she feels brave enough to place a hand in the center of his beskar clad chest, she replies with honey in her voice..
“At first I thought, how did I end up on ship run by a Mandalorian in a situation like this? Now, I could be more blessed by the stars that this incredible warrior crossed my path and my safety is in his hands. You make me feel like a lucky girl, Mando.” She replies, teasing but truthful. It took Mando a few seconds to swallow as he absorbed her praise. Her hand teasingly moving down his chest didn’t go unnoticed.. The handsome bounty hunter started to breathe a bit heavy..
Fiora smirked as she could feel his chest move up and down with labored breathing, even under the metal...
“Fi, you shouldn’t be doing this”... his voice his strained but hot..
Fiora chuckles in reply, bring her face closer to his.. her breast, supple and full pressing against the armor.. “Do what? Don’t tell me the big and bad Mandalorian can’t handle a little female heat”... Fiora’s voice is now a sultry tune..
“Don’t try to find out what I can or can’t handle, Fi.. I could be dangerous.” Mando’s voice is not only teasing... but a warning..
