Alicia carried herself warily through the black, chitinous corridors of the xenomorph hive with vigilance and caution. The blond-haired marine took deep, steady breaths as she passed through corridor after dark corridor. Her weapon was at the ready as her alert eyes scanned around for the skeleton-like, midnight black adversaries that inhabited the colony....
Dear readers Thank you so much your support, comments and emails. You have earned a special place in my heart, and you are the reason why I wrote this epilogue. Halloween is my favorite day of the year and though gift-giving isn't the usual for this special season; neither am I. That said, here is my gift to you for taking this journey with Magnus and Cass...
*I have been asked a very good question: if men are so rare and valuable, why aren't they treated better? One reader provided the best answer. In the American West in the last half of the 19th century, in many areas men outnumbered women 10:1. Women enjoyed protection because of their rarity, but they had no control over that protection. The gained no excess...
October 1991 The collision was momentous. As the dark Ford pick up truck swerved into the opposite lane of traffic, the driver of the car in the opposite lane stepped frantically at her break petal, desperately trying to get out of the way of the on coming truck.

*Thanks to PokingFun for her editing expertise* *No true sex again in this part, but there is close contact* *There are three horrible events in this section; a suicide, a murder/suicide at a daycare, and our protagonist gets fisted as part of a police intimidation tactic. I do not feel they are gratuitous. They feed into the dark desperation of the story'...
I did not connect the two events. They were about six weeks apart and I did not associate them. Event number two, I met Paula Billings in the JAVA JOINT coffee line. After we picked up our morning caffeine, she spilled her Mocha on my pants. Looking back I didn't see where I missed any clues. She was that good. Or maybe I couldn't see the forest for thos...
A Warship comes a calling... This chapter sees the story line progress some and Raymond and Liea are temporarily separated. As well, the Terran Union Space Navy comes a calling. There is little attempt to explain the back story in this chapter so reading the previous chapters is important to understanding what is happening. As before, I claim sole resp...
His manner was imperious, as if he came from old money. He didn't. Like me, he was one generation away from thieves and conmen. There was a formality as he ordered his food, dismissed the waitress and drank his wine. He was an arrogant ass. I watched from across the room, doing my due diligence. "Enjoy your dinner, Eli.
