A long night chasing down some other leads and following up with his contacts.  There was always something or other going on and the Deneb sector was becoming a new trafficking hub which is why he was sent here to establish a network.  With Star Fleets limited resources after the ‘war’ boots on the ground were especially valuable to deploy the depleted fleet where it could do the most good.

Finally, getting back to one of the safe spaces, the misnomered Hotel - really an apartment complex, that she used to as a safe house while in the city, she undressed, shaking out her blond hair, and taking off the breast band that let her appear as a man.  Of course, the cloak and gloves helped the mystery that more.  Activating a hidden wall in the closet, she hung the disguise up ad put a robe on.  Sitting at her vanity, she peeled off the rest of her prosthetics and the special contact lenses that disguised her Betazoid black eyes, slipping them into the special hidden compartment there. 

Feeling more herself, she opened up a second compartment in her vanity and inserted the various data chips she picked up on her rounds.  She also started uploading the data from her recorders at The Stardust.  She didn’t have that bugged as she liked, so payed for access.  She was sure there was more but the Ferengi had an impressive security system. 

Closing the door on her vanity, she walked over to take a shower and change.  Her car and driver would be here soon to take her to the countryside estate she maintained, and where the real work was done. 

Emerging clean and refreshed, she got dressed as befit her station as under secretary of agriculture to the Betazoid Embassy.  High  enough for some level of protection, but low enough not to be noticed if she was away for days at a time.  She was good at her day job, but wanted to do more after her fiancee was killed years ago, hence the dual life.

The concierge let her know that her transport was here.  She came down, dressed to distract, which her empathic abilities told here was working.  She didn’t have the telepathic power of her sister, but could read surface emotions, useful to know when someone was lying to her.  

Stepping into the back of the car, “I trust your evening was productive Ma’am,” her driver/security/co-conspirator asked.

“Yes, Tomod, it did indeed.  Data was being uploaded.  Unfortunately one of my irregulars was found murdered by the shuttle port,” she said. 

“I will secure the footage Ma’am.”

“Thank you.  He had left the Stardust following a Cardassian.  I am not sure what he was doing here, but I have some images so we can figure out who he is.”

“We are spying on friendly powers now?” Tomod asked.

“When meeting with a known Orion spy, yes we do.”

Tomod raised an eyebrow.  “We know her?”

“I am not sure, I will have to check the records,  but she gave off a vibe.”

“Don’t forget the meeting at 1600 to discuss the changes to the bilateral agriculture exchange after that shipment that was contaminated by the grapevine moth larvae.”

She sighed. “Work, work work.  You are going to be the death of me Tomod.”

“Yes Ma’am, very good Ma’am,” he replied sarcastically.
