Metal Bones - Fallen Stars, #5

After discovering an Eternity chip in Vorzon, Xian is kidnapped by the cyborg raider, Roz, and held hostage, with the intention that Zune will come to rescue her, indirectly bringing Roz a second Eternity chip. Don't miss the fifth installment of this lesbian romance series! --Zune was still slamming Roz against the wall, still slowly breaking her neck with a cold, narrow-eyed satisfaction that was horrifying, and for several seconds, Xian couldn't move as she stood there covering her bare breasts: she had never imagined Zune capable of such jealousy and rage.
  --"Xian isn't here, " Super said abruptly.  Zune staggered to halt, craning her neck back to look at the giant robot's distant face. "What, no 'hello'?" she called. "No 'nice to see you'?"  Super paused and said, "Hello, then, Zune. I didn't think you were one for pleasantries."  "Normally, I'm not, " Zune admitted. "I'm trying to be less of an asshole."  "An admirable endeavor, " said Super, amused.  --Xian touched a sympathetic hand to Zune's muscly arm.
"It's not as if you did it on purpose! And I l-love you-"Zune looked quickly down at Xian, and Xian's heart skipped a beat from the intensity of her blue eyes."I'd do anything for you, " Xian plunged on bravely."And I you, " Zune said, gently pinching Xian's chin. The blue eyes were still intense, and Xian could tell from the way that they lingered on her lips that Zune wanted to kiss her. Instead of kissing Xian, however, Zune whispered, "Whatever you want me to do, I'll do it.
Mount an Eternity chip on you? Fine. Remove my own Eternity chip? As you wish. I have come to realize that the thought of losing your love frightens me more than anything, even my own mortality."
