Mercenary's Dream

Anine has come a long way from the farm where she grew up. She has friends in high places. She can speak with a proper accent if she wants to. It’s time to move on to the job she really loves.
But her superiors have decided she’s officer material, and keep putting her in situations where she’s forced to prove they are right.
And to make it worse, everyone tells her she needs to get married, a distraction she doesn't need when her whole attention should be on keeping herself alive.
