© Alex de Kok, 2003 Captain Peterson was just winding up his morning briefing when Kathy came awake with a mental thud as she heard her name called. "Kowalski, Gonzalez, Henderson and Jones - my office in five minutes. The rest of you - you know what to do, ladies and gentlemen. Get out there and do it!" The squadroom came alive with the usual morning bus...
The Queen of Mermaid Island arrived in the lagoon, accompanied as she always was by her two handmaidens, Thetis and Miriam, who had been a Greek priestess and a Phoenician trader's daughter in their long-ago-forgotten human lives, roughly three-thousand years ago. The two mermaid handmaidens were hardly aware now that they had ever once been women; their lot...

Chapter 1: Alex Jones woke to the sound of someone knocking on his door. Lifting his head he looked over at the clock on his bedside table and groaned.

The Weather Channel women entered the service elevator and I pressed the penthouse floor. No one saw me do this and we were all chatting when Heather said we passed our floor. I told them that I upgraded our rooms and we would be cozier in our new surrounding. Before they could as about where we were going the doors opened to the penthouse and they all stepp...
I would love to tell you that life was a bed of roses when Rudy took me back, despite my weekend of debauchery. Life was a bed of roses when Rudy took me back. There.
