The reaction was no surprise. Aurora might not be that close with Maize, she knew him well enough to know his volatile temperament, especially when it came to his wife.

She had never been head over feet for someone like he was for Kassandra. In a way she liked it that way. She had had her share of various entanglements over the years but the whole marriage and epic love story was foreign to her.

That was why she didn't pretend to know what he went through. So she weathered the storm until he barked out loud.

"You could try bounty hunters who deal with yet another network than mine, although imperial, alliance, or even freaking Hutts had nothing on her. Or you learn to live without her."

She held a hand and stared at him before he could bark something else at her.

"I don't kriffin know what the hell you had with your wife; but if she wanted to be here with you, she would be. Pining over her is going to screw your life. Is it really what you want?"
