Curse of the Spider Woman
By Rocky
She'd joined Starfleet to seek out new life. During the years in the DQ she'd
gotten used to saving her ship. She'd secretly been pleased when Tom's halting

to step in and save the day once more.

slit high up the thigh and cut to display maximum cleavage--

Tom Paris was a dead man.
