Nicole was still mulling over the words of Azalia Azoone and the plan to distance herself from the Gral family as the rumors continue to be planted that the movement on Tellar Prime where the civilian government continues to try to distance its activities from the military. Nicole really wanted more authority. She really wanted to be Governor again.
She knew that Azalia could start enough chaos that Whisper and Lolli would also be taken down. She would be able to offer Whisper the role of Mayor to keep the Betazoid Alliance happy and Nicole could once again be in the Governor's Mansion.
She went to the Libby Gral gala with the goal of using it as an opportunity to start to bring down Libby Gral. She wanted the Tellarite community to rally behind her. She was ready to use Libby's pancake breakfast to start her path back to the mansion.
She walked up to Libby. She wanted to destroy her. She had practiced the speech every since Azalia Azoone planted the seed. She looked at Libby and instead of getting some sort of ferocious speaking voice, she got memories of laying on the bed with Libby with Mac and Brenna laying on the end of the bed and the group laughing at a something one of the children. She should have taken her down. It may have been her last chance to be Governor of Medara.
She just could not do it. Libby knew what she wanted to do. She knew about the horrible betrayal. She looked at Nicole, "I just want to be near you."
Nicole felt the same way. She just could not bring herself to say it. Libby grabbed her and pulled her into the alley behind the cook ovens.
"I know you want it.", Libby looked at Nicole.
"I want to be Governor.", Nicole looked at Libby. At least she was finally being honest.
Libby grabbed her and pulled her close. Nicole tried to fight away, "I am focused on one goal."
Libby literally tore Nicole's shirt off and pulled her close, taking off her own shirt, "This is better than being Governor."
Nicole tried to fight away but it felt so good.
Libby looked at Nicole, "One thing at a time. First we have to mend your heart and our relationship and then we can find you a job you want."
Nicole and Libby went back to the Mayor's Mansion. Nicole came out to get a coffee in the morning. Nicole secretly wondered if this was enough. Could she be happy with just being the First Lady of the city of Camelot?
Libby came out of the bedroom. Nicole looked over. She could not believe she had cheated with Azalia when she could have had that.
Nicole sipped her coffee and smiled as a perky Brenna came downstairs with a simple, "Hi Moms."
Nicole knew then and there she could be happy being a wife and a mother.
