"Is Jill going to need Little One?" Jeff quietly asked Diana as they sat in the living room and watched Jill walk carefully in.
Diana, in her favorite position on Jeff's lap, whispered in his ear, "No. And believe it or not, her new pussy is in better shape than her ass."
"Her ass?"
"Yeah. Bill spanked her for what happened with Ingles," she returned with an odd expression. "She ate her breakfast as she sat in the water of the hot tub. She has trouble sitting in a chair, though."
"Bill spanked her on their wedding night?" Jeff frowned at his Queen. "A real spanking? That doesn't make sense. Bill would never do that. Jill had no control over what happened with Ingles."
"I know that. You know that, as does everyone else. But Jill was fully aware of what was going on while she was with Ingles, even though she couldn't stop it. In her mind, she needed to be forgiven. Bill spanked her for her transgressions — the transgressions that she felt like she had participated in. Willingly or not. She received her punishment, so now she's forgiven."
"That doesn't make sense ... She didn't do anything wrong."
"She knows she didn't, but she feels like she did. Now she has been punished and forgiven."
Jeff knew he wasn't going to win this little argument, so he just shut up and looked at his wife. She was easy on the eyes, anyway. Shifting his gaze, he discreetly glanced at the triad, as they stood looking out the window, a woman on either side of Bill, everyone embracing. "So she's standing, leaning against Bill because..."
"She can't sit down. Also, check out Bill's right hand. If you look carefully, it seems to be swollen a little."
"He's been enhanced, the swelling won't last long," Jeff offered. Then, "Shit, that wasn't a spanking, that was a beating."
"Maybe so, but that's what Jill wanted, and in her mind, had to have. Besides, with what Little One has done to her, I imagine Jill's sore ass won't last nearly as long as she expects," Diana added.
"And what does Kathy think about this?"
"She helped orchestrate it."
"Must have been an interesting wedding night."
Diana giggled in his ear, "So was ours."
Dave opened the apartment door when Jeff knocked. "What brings you to our fair abode? It must be, what ... twenty minutes or so since we shot the shit in the living room..."
"A comedian you ain't," Jeff laughed as they walked on into Dave's kitchen. "My women are in a cleaning mood this morning, and 'suggested' that I get the hell out of the way."
"Yeah, well, it must be catching. Linda, Kim and Evie are doing the same thing. Probably not safe to go farther than here in the kitchen. Want something to drink?"
"Something wet would be fine, as long as it's cold," Jeff said, sitting at the table. "I've drunk my fill of coffee for the time being."
Dave stopped to look back at his best friend for a second, then altered his course for the refrigerator. Friend? More than that — much more. Maybe, a brother I never had. Then aloud, "I never thought I would hear you say that," he laughed as he grabbed a couple cokes and pushed the refrigerator door closed with his shoulder.
"There you go again with the funnies. I do get filled up on coffee on occasion."
They both chuckled again as Dave put the drinks on the table and plopped down across from Jeff. "What about Frank and Margaret?" Dave asked with a leer. "Haven't seen them since breakfast."
"Maybe they're cleaning, too," Jeff allowed.
Dave sniggered. "Frank's going to fuck that woman to death before they can get married. Margaret needs to seriously think about getting some help while she can still walk. Marcie and Steve gone home I guess?"
"Yeah, they headed out with Marcie walking — well kinda stumping I guess you could say — with that walking cast, but with the crutch thrown over her shoulder. She refused to ride in the wheel chair, too. She said she was going to take the cast off as soon as she got home. I think she and Steve compared notes. They made a big deal about how good they felt this morning — a big deal. And Steve made several comments about us insisting they stay the night when they lived so close. Those two are sharp as they come. They know something happened, and they're just about positive I had more than a little to do with it. Marcie sort of bounced up and down on that leg and told me she was going to go and have it x-rayed again, but she knew it was healed."
"Oh, crap," Dave said.
"Yeah, I about shit a brick. No use getting a medical doctor involved in this. And that bone healing up in a couple days would sure get him thinking. I finally just grabbed both Marcie's arms, looked her in the eyes and very sincerely asked her not to do that. She looked at her husband, and both of them asked why."
"What did you say to that?"
"What the fuck else could I do? I..."
"You didn't tell..."
" ... lied, of course," Jeff finished. "Well, actually I let them lie for me. Steve said something about me being an inventor, so I just let it ride. I swore them both to secrecy about what had happened. I told them 'it' could not possibly be released to the public at the present time, and 'its' functionality was very limited for now. I did tell them that their osteoporosis would shortly be a thing of the past, but if they ever expected to get any kind of treatment from me in the future, they would have to honor their promise of secrecy."
"You think they will talk?"
Jeff took a sip of his drink and thought for a minute. "Most of us have family. I haven't asked what their situation is, but it would be hard to not mention it to a family member who had major health problems. All I can do is hope, and ... they've actually not seen anything. But you know how different your body feels after Little One has done her thing. I think ... I know they're honorable people. I can only hope for the best."
Jeff changed the subject. "What about Jesse's truck? Have you checked on it lately?"
Dave slid another chair out and propped his feet up. "Yeah, Evie and I ran by there while you and Bill were out, uh, seeing to Ingles." When Jeff waved his fingers negligently to Dave, he went on, "It's beginning to look like a truck again — now. When we were by there a week ago, they were sandblasting and coating the frame; it only vaguely resembles a truck. But they had the new motor and transmission on the frame this time, so it's beginning to take shape. He said another week or ten days. Still have a couple of parts that haven't come in. Couple of weeks and Jesse is going to have a new, old truck. Probably last longer than some of the new stuff coming out these days, though.
"Oh, yeah, Jesse won't have to get out and lock the lugs for four-wheel drive like he used to. That part will be modern. Just flip a selector switch for four-wheel drive, automatic four-wheel drive, or two-wheel drive."
"That's good." Jeff leaned back and thought for a moment. "We need to figure out some way to really surprise him when we give the truck back to him — well, when Tate gives it back to him."
"Jeff, I think you need to talk to the sheriff about that. Rebuilding a motor, or putting on a paint job is one thing. Those deputies wouldn't think anything about it. But this truck is going to be new, and dressed out, besides. Might not be a good idea to present him with the truck at the department and say that Tate's slush fund did it. Even if the deputies do believe that Tate had that much money in his slush fund, there could still be some jealousy started. We don't want to get Jesse in a mess."
"Yeah, I guess you're right. Quinton said something about it already. Maybe we better do the unveiling up here."
Dave went on, "Those deputies are curious as hell. You know how Joyce is. Their curiosity is a major part of their job. Their brains just naturally have to unravel things. You can bet your sweet ass that bunch knows Joyce is living with you. You said that Marcie and Steve had figured it out; it would be a stretch to think that Tate's deputies haven't done as well, if not a lot better. Why don't you just take credit for the truck? Jesse might be pissed, but hell, he isn't going to believe that Tate has that kind of money in his slush fund, anyway. If you take credit, the deputies will think you're just taking care of Jesse because he saved Joyce. Nothing strange about that, and hey, it's the truth."
Jeff sighed. "Jesse has already wondered why it's taking so long to get the motor rebuilt. He's driving his dad's pickup, and Dad is probably wondering how long it will be before he gets his truck back. I hope this doesn't all come crashing down around my ears when Jesse sees that truck. He's a proud guy. I don't want to lose a good friend because of overdoing it with his truck. Shit."
Dave thought for a minute. "If he gets pissed, just ask what he would do if someone saved Alesha and blew their truck motor while doing it. You can negotiate from there."
Jeff sighed. "Yeah, that's what I'll have to do. I guess getting Alesha on my side to begin with wouldn't hurt, either. I'll get Diana to get together with Alesha and Joyce before the truck gets back. Fuck it. I wish I could just put a million dollars in Jesse's account, or something like that. He fucking saved my wife, and ... he blew his truck motor up doing it."
Dave thought that was funny. Funnier than Jeff thought, obviously, because Jeff frowned at him when Dave laughed.
"Oh, the trials and tribulations of a rich man," Dave sniggered.
The men sat in silence for a time, then, "Uh, Jeff, there's something ... uh..."
Jeff raised an eyebrow and looked at his friend. "Since when have you become shy? Spit it out."
Dave took a sip of his drink, refusing to meet Jeff's eye, obviously nervous. Finally, "I've got a problem..."
Jeff couldn't remember seeing Dave quite as intense. "You got money problems? If that's it, you damn well know we'll..."
"No, no, Jeff. Heck, you're overpaying us now, and the company is doing fine."
"I'm not overpaying you, but what gives? Come on, out with it. We'll solve it together. If we can't do it, I'll call a family meeting. We've got enough brains in this building to get it solved, whatever it is."
Dave sighed, "I don't know whether it has an answer or not, and ... I can't seem to find one. I ... uh, it's Linda. Jeff, I love her so much it hurts. Don't misunderstand me, I love Evie and Kim the same way, but this just involves Linda. Well, not really, it..."
Jeff's enhanced hearing picked up the near-silent bare footsteps approaching the kitchen. One of his "Prime" senses, newly awakened, indicated it was one of Dave's wives, but he wasn't sure whether it was Linda, Kim or Evie, though. Jeff started to reach to touch Dave's hand to warn him, but aborted the move and picked up his drink as Dave continued.
"It's about a promise I made Linda. Well, it wasn't a promise exactly, but I told her it was fine with me if that's what she wanted."
The footsteps faltered and stopped, but only the Prime heard.
"I understand. We're Alphas, if we tell someone we'll do something, it's automatically a promise — same thing. We both know that. You're stalling."
"Yeah, I guess, I am," Dave sighed. "Fuck, I don't know how to say this tactfully, so I'll ... I know your women have told you that Linda and Bill became ... closer than father and daughter while Jill was spending so much time with Ingles the last year. I guess in Linda's mind, she was taking over the duties of Bill's wife. Hell, not just in her mind, she was. Anyway, they never actually did anything, but Linda had fallen in love — real love — with Bill. But Bill stopped them from going all the way."
Dave sighed and finished his drink, "Oh, fuck, no use going into all that, but the bottom line is that she told Bill she loved me, but she loved him, too. She got us both to agree that she would spend a night with Bill after she was married to me — do it during the first month. I know that Bill is in just as much a quandary over this as I am. She agreed to marry me with that stipulation, and I'll honor what I told her, but Jeff, it's gonna... hurt," he finished as he suddenly found something to stare at on the table.
"I think I'll have that cup of coffee now," Jeff told his friend.
"Uh, sure," Dave said, getting up, wondering why Jeff didn't just get the coffee himself. The pot on the counter was actually closer to Jeff than it was to Dave, then he suddenly realized that Jeff was giving him a little something to do while he regrouped a bit.
When they each had coffee in front of them and Dave had tossed their empty drink bottles in the trash, he sank down into his seat, despondent.
Jeff took a sip of the excellent coffee, dragging out the moment.
"So what do I do?" Dave asked, knowing there wasn't an answer, at least not one that would take the hurt away.
Jeff looked at him, an expression on his face that Dave couldn't interpret. "You do the same thing I do when there is a big household problem. Like a good husband, I wait for my women to tell me the answer. If it's business, a threat to my family, or anything from outside, I handle it. But if it's internal, I bow to my wives. Oh, sometimes they let me pretend I've solved it, but we all know where the solution really comes from. It's called pussy whipped, my friend, and regardless of the stigma that goes with that title, I kinda enjoy my version of it."
"Damnit, Jeff. I'm serious about this..."
"So am I," the Prime interrupted. "Linda loves Bill beyond the father/daughter concept. At worst, she makes love to him for a night, just like you agreed. I took Diana's virginity in the back seat of a car, and Ann's in the honeymoon suite. None of my other wives were virgins. It has not mattered one iota to me, and never will. Linda gave you her virginity with the stipulation that she would honor her father at a later time. It will hurt you, but I'll be amazed if you don't come out better for it in the long run. She'll know the sacrifice you made to allow her to do this. She will never forget it — and neither will Bill."
This story illustrates a risk of sex under hypnosis. It could be called rape. This story builds on ‘Arlene Gets Hypnotized,’ my previous story. * * * * * I was sitting in my office at the University when Arlene walked into my open office. ‘Professor, are you busy?’ I probably was, but Arlene was a delight to look at and to have around. Especially to a 58 year old psychology professor who was pretty much reduced to dreaming about what had been and might have been. ‘Well, I was deep in...
At eight on the dot, he carried a laughing Jennie into an instantly quiet kitchen. Still in his arms, Jennie kissed him. Turning to the other wives, she gave the proclamation, "I'm full of come," then followed with, "but ... I'm broken." That started the usual scramble, but they had the pussy cream in the kitchen this time, and Jeff insisted that he carry her to the hot tub. He kissed her tenderly, then was shooed away by Diana, who kissed him and whispered. "That glow on her face...
The Retreat Arlene and Ann finally managed to get Jeff reasonably alone for a couple of minutes. After kissing him passionately, Arlene transferred Little One to the Prime’s shoulder, where she made her way under his collar to her usual resting place spread across his back. As soon as she had settled in, he told her how much he loved and missed her before giving her a brief account of the trip. Little One told him how much she missed him and shared the happenings in Germany. All of this was...
THE RETREAT: LATE THURSDAY NIGHT Arlene and Selina sat on Selina's bed, their backs propped against pillows as they played with Billy. Arlene slid her hand back and forth under the sheet as Billy pretended to stalk a terribly dangerous prey. He held his body and his head very close to the bed, occasionally lifting his head slightly to peek at his target, the tip of his tail twitching continuously. Then, he would jump as high as he could, coming down on Arlene's hand, tussling with it...
A shaking of Ann's shoulder accompanied a discordant buzz from her watch. "Plebe, you have thirty minutes to shower, dress and get to your first class. You don't have time for breakfast today, so ask the AI for a couple of energy bars." Ann, bleary-eyed, shut her alarm off and swung her legs out of her bed as the Class Lieutenant, already immaculately clad in her uniform, stepped back to give the smaller girl room to stand. "Thanks, Arlene," Ann mumbled as she came to her feet and...
The Mission Hours later, Arlene and Ann, tired, eased to the edge of a high rock bluff overlooking the massive power station in the distance. “Well, they sure don’t bother to conserve energy, at least with their lights,” Arlene sarcastically remarked as they stared at the brilliantly lit station. Worried that they might be discovered, both young women had employed their sensors over the edge to gather information before proceeding with their mission. “Just how are we supposed to get from...
The women had pushed the two kitchen tables together. Frank Wainwright stood looking at them as Jeff, Kayla, and Diana came in. "We either need to get a bigger table in here, or start eating in the dining room." "Bigger table," Jeff and Diana said at almost the same time. "The dining room is too formal," Diana continued. "We want to be a family, and with all of us for three meals a day, it's a lot easier to serve in here than taking the food into the dining room. The kitchen is...
Ship ...”We were still here all the time?” Kathy got out with amazement. “Ann told me that Ship’s training was very realistic, but this is beyond...” she finished as her voice trailed off. Bill automatically put an arm about his wife as he cast a look around the room. “Arlene and Ann had something they needed to do, but they will meet you in the lounge,” Ship told them. Bill, Kathy, Arlene Ann and the two crews that had flown the training mission with them were all sitting around a big...
During breakfast in the dining room, Diana stood and tapped a spoon on her orange juice glass. When the room quieted, "Most of you already know, but for the ones who don't, Frank, Margaret, Tina, Bill, Kathy and Jill will be back from the island this morning. Margaret called me late yesterday from their hotel suite in Los Angeles. She said they were anxious to get home and would leave really early for the last leg of their trip back. I would appreciate it if all of those of us who will be...
The Retreat ... The Sheriff and his family had left. Jeff and Joe Martin were sitting in the living room talking while the women had gone somewhere, probably to the bathroom. “So, how’s the honeymoon going?” Jeff, at a loss for a topic, asked uncomfortably, not wanting to get into the subject that he thought Arlene should take care of. “Great. I’m still amazed that she actually married me. Sir, the woman brought some polish along and polished her wedding ring – a brand-new wedding ring. I...
... Ann raised a foot from the muck to shake off something that wiggled and flopped about as it tried to use its teeth and suckers on the near-impervious suit. But the skin suit sluffed off the creature’s actions without much notice, and she stomped it into the muck. A few minutes later, they were out of the water and on a long peninsula of muddy land that extended partway through the swamp. Tired, the two stopped for a breather. Turning, Ann started to make a comment, but instead screamed...
... Ann looked at the screen in front of her. “See that?” “Yeah,” Arlene said with a sigh. “Continental shelf. Our world is going shallow. We’re almost there.” “Chances are that very shortly we’re going to be brain dead for real,” Ann quietly said as she began yet another check of their systems. A few minutes later, they came to a halt in water no more than fifty feet deep. “I don’t see any signs of our intruder on my screen. How about yours?” Ann shook her head, then realized that...
Jeff had gotten a bid from the dealer on the Internet and there wasn't a salesman involved. The sales manager handled the business. "How long to prep the black one?" The manager grinned. "After I talked with you on the phone, I went ahead and prepped it, just in case. All I have to do is gas it up and it will be ready." "Fine. Do it, and we'll get the paperwork out of the way." A little later, the paperwork was done, and Jeff swiped his debit card. The sales manager seemed to...
Diana came back with a washcloth and helped her mother put it between her legs, and also helped her get her panties and shorts back on. Susan was still mostly out of it, her motions and actions slow and somewhat uncoordinated. "You really blew her away," Diana said to her husband as she sat and pulled her mother into her arms. "She really blew me away, too," Jeff said as he touched Susan's cheek. "I was aware enough to support most of my weight on my forearms, but all I wanted to do...
In the hallway, Susan threw a load of wet towels on the cart, then a moment later came back out of the suite with the vacuum cleaner she had been using. Muttering to herself, her face red, she hung the vacuum on the side of the cart and started for the next suite. "What's wrong, Meemi?" Arlene asked as she caught up to her grandmother. "Two people. Two people in there and they used up all the towels we left for them, plus extras that they demanded last night at 9:00 o'clock, then they...
... Jeff had also heard the door close, and shoved Helen into Diana's arms, causing Diana to stagger, Laura grabbing Helen to help. He pulled his .45 from his waistband and started down the hall, but even as he did so, he saw Arlene at the intersection of the hallways and knew he was too late. Jeff figured one of the mercenaries had to be in the hallway, and was probably doing the same thing Arlene was. (Slicing the pie at the intersection.) He also knew he would never make the...
The Retreat Diana frowned prettily. “That reminds me. We need to go back to 2214 to see if Jasmine and her sister-wives have caught up with their canning yet. We should do that tomorrow.” “Yep. And they need to get back into training as soon as possible too, but we can’t leave to visit them until the Sergeant and his crew have completed their investigation.” “So, how long will that take?” “As long as it takes,” Jeff responded to her frustration. “Look, Sergeant Higgins is in charge of the...
Diana parked in front of the art supply store. Hope, sitting in the second seat with Ann, started to open her door, but Ann put out a restraining hand. "Let Security do their thing first." "Are we really in that much danger?" Diana spoke up from the driver's seat. "We didn't go into details when we told you about the attack, and no, we don't expect it to happen again, but we didn't expect that attack, either. And, yeah, it's an irritant having to have Security everywhere we go,...
When they parked in the back, the door of the Retreat opened and all Jeff's younger wives, who had stayed home, came hurrying out accompanied by Selina. As Hope and Arlene exited the SUV with the puppies snuggled under their coats, Arlene pointed to an area just past the pavement near the side of the Retreat. "Mrs. Kimbrel said we should walk them as soon as we got home," Arlene told the others as she and Hope opened their coats enough to give everyone a peek at the baby...
The Retreat ... The young wives looked at each other before Arlene turned to her husband. “As per your orders, I’m continuing to schedule crews for patrol missions. Of course...” “But that’s not where you just came from,” Jeff interrupted to say. The two young women exchanged a look. “We might as well tell him and get it over with,” Ann said. Arlene stared at her partner, then with a sigh, agreed, but as she opened her mouth, Ann began to speak. “We know that the General has made every...
Hope held one of the outfits up as she repressed a giggle. "Dogs can see color, can't they?" Arlene grabbed Spike, who had apparently figured things out and was sneaking off. "Oh, no you don't, Big Boy. You get to try on your new snowsuit." Then answering Hope's question, "They can see colors, but I've read that the colors they see probably aren't as intense to dogs as they are to humans. They have fewer cones in their eyes, and humans have several different types of cones that...
... Arlene motioned to their forward screen and the rippling, wavering, blurry image there. “I can’t see worth a shit because of the burning atmosphere, and the sensors have packed up from the heat. But I think I’ll go to full shields right about...” A geyser shot hundreds of feet into the air as the craft hit the water with a sound that could be heard many, many miles away. Even at full shields, some of the shock bled through and, had it not been for the gravity field of their seats,...

Laura woke him the usual way, and she almost went too far. When Jeff grunted and his cock started to swell, she jerked her mouth off. It was a near thing for a few seconds. "I guess I almost went off while I was still asleep," he groaned. "Wow, I'm really horny." "Sorry, Jeff. You usually go forever. I wouldn't mess it up for Diana for the world." "It wasn't your fault," he said, finally regaining control. "It's just the stress of the day. Of course, I've had two of those damn...
In their bedroom, dressed in pajamas, the girls flopped into bed. Terry grabbed the remote and dialed the lights down, then turned to her sister. "Arlene said that we wouldn't have any more periods until Little One turns them on for us again. Boy, I can sure live with that." Alice got a look on her face and responded, "Well, as you know, I've only had one, but it sure was icky – not to say anything about worrying if I were bleeding to death. If that's what it takes to be a woman, I...
Jeff and his women had showered and were in bed only moments when Ship announced that Arlene's scout was minutes away. Since the family was still using their suite on the Ship, they were quickly dressed – well partially anyway – and waiting for Arlene as she maneuvered her scout through the outer bay door and onto the flight deck. She didn't go all the way to the scout's bay though, but stopped in front of her family. An instant after the scout came to a halt, its belly hatch opened and...
The Waterfall Campsite ... Dessie straightened up and stared at Ann. “I have eaten pheasant, fish and rabbit until they’re practically coming out my ears. I’ve had MREs while backpacking and wasn’t in love with them all that much, but I think I would love some now, no matter what the meal consists of.” “We have an assortment. I noticed a Brisket Entreé, Chicken something or other, and a Beef Stew, with whatever goes with them, and several more besides. We just grabbed some at random in...
JUST OUTSIDE A SMALL NORTHWESTERN TOWN Once again Nichols sat worrying in front of his boss' elegant desk. Rich, wealthy, words don't describe the extreme category the older man fit into. Nor can you describe how evil this man is either, Nichols thought, his face devoid of expression as he waited for Mr. Moreau to end his phone call. Nichols dreaded that. When the call ended, Moreau would ask questions that Nichols didn't have acceptable answers to. The town council members think Moreau...
Jeff, Diana, Dave and Evie sat in the living room, waiting. When the phone rang, Diana checked the caller ID and answered. "Glad you guys are back." "Diana, I..." The voice chopped off, then Carla cleared her throat and tried again. "Diana, our dreams..." Carla's voice stopped again, to be replaced by quiet sobs of joy. "I can't..." "You just did," Diana said softly. "You're on speaker, so all of us can hear you. Jeff, Dave and Evie are here with me and listening. And, you're...
...”See that tree that has the broken limb hanging down?” “Yes,” Aiko gasped out. “We’ll jog to it, then we will walk for a hundred steps.” “I don’t know...” “Yes, you do. You know you can. I’ll bet it’s even less than a hundred steps. Let’s count them,” she finished as she began counting their steps aloud while they slow-jogged. Soon Aiko added her voice. “Ninety-two. Told you it was less than a hundred. Now we’ll walk for a hundred steps, and rested or not, we will jog starting at...
The Retreat As Charlotte and Diana sat at the bar in the kitchen watching the other women, Selina stopped by. "Want to help?" the little genius asked the young woman. Worried, Charlotte answered, "Everything is happening so fast that I barely know what's going on." "Oh, you will get used to that," Selina said as she reached for Charlotte's hand. "Well, I'll be glad to help if I can." Charlotte glanced at Diana, who nodded with a smile. "No better way than to just dive...
They were high up and soon over the ocean, having left the continent behind. They passed the terminator and continued into night, still headed west, the myriad lights of the cities twinkling as the Earth seemed to slowly spin below. But before the view could become boring – if it ever could -- the horizon seemed to shift downward on the big screen as the Ship gradually pointed her nose away from the planet, the full moon drifting down toward the center of the viewscreen. There was a...
Jeff met with Kei, Edi and Alesha on the updated design that they were working on for the new ski lodge, then stopped off in the living room to watch the late news before eventually winding up in his suite. After a shower where he "played" with Jennie and Melissa, he walked into a strangely quiet bedroom. Looking around, he began to wonder. "What?" he asked, then suddenly it hit him, "Where's Ann?" Arlene caught his eye. "We've looked for her, and she's not anywhere in the Retreat....
The Castle ...”Certainly,” Arlene responded, “but please don’t either of you touch it. The AI can become quite persnickety, and he has the means to back up his displeasure.” “You have a functioning artificial intelligence?” Karl asked. “Please don’t mention it around him. I think he is trying to find a way to become a citizen,” Arlene returned with a chuckle. “Uh, I won’t,” Karl responded, not quite sure if Arlene were kidding or not. Both Karl and Fischer thanked Arlene and hurried off...
Jeff had stopped by his office to pick up a few pieces of printer paper. Alone in the living room a couple of minutes later, he wadded up a sheet of the paper into a loose ball. If I screw up with this paper ball, air resistance, if nothing else, should keep its flight slow enough to prevent me from tearing up things. With Arlene's encouragement while on the Ship's range, he had gained a small measure of expertise as he mentally moved a steel ball around and caused it to spin, but he still...
The Mission ... Both were tempted to use their suits’ drive units, but they knew that would alert the Throme if anything would. Scrambling down, they were soon in the water. A hundred meters out, they saw a glint of movement coming toward them just under the surface. “Let’s go home,” Arlene said to her partner. As soon as the hatch closed and even before they were out of the airlock, the AI had them moving away from land. “Oh, I so want to get out of this suit,” Arlene grumped a few...
The Retreat Shortly after lunch, Arlene went out to the Ship expecting to sit in one of the command couches and be swept away by the simulator to another very realistic space battle, but she froze as soon as she passed through the hatch. Jeff had called Kayla and Art to his office, intending to ask them to begin training in the Ship's simulator. Before he could begin, the AI turned the TV on to show Arlene jogging back from the Ship. The AI didn't say anything, but apparently thought...
The Retreat After breakfast, Arlene, Ann and Selina gathered enough food to last them the rest of the day. “Should this not be the correct castle and we continue the search, we will need something to drink with our lunch,” Selina said as she opened a refrigerator. “There is water available at each station on the interceptor. As for soft drinks, please bring only what you are sure you will drink. Storage space is at a premium,” Arlene told the seven-year-old. “Bathroom?” Selina asked as...
Jeff had just dialed his next door neighbor who lived a mile down the road. "Steve Sperman here." "Hi Mr. Sperman. This is Jeff. How's it going?" "Hmmm. Didn't we have a discussion about that Mr. thing?" Jeff chuckled. "Yeah, I guess we did, Steve. How's Marcie doing?" There was a hesitation. "You know, that's a funny thing, like I mentioned before. Seems like after the night we spent at your place, ol' Uncle Arthur (arthritis) suddenly got much better. Odd that both of us...
The Prison Planet Ship had received permission from her Prime to go back to Earth long enough to pick up Arlene, Ann and the other aviators, then take the Wing to orbit for its launch. The trip to Earth and back would only take a few minutes. Giving the interceptors a ride to orbit and their launch would take only a few minutes more. The interceptors normally remained in their bays on Ship’s flight deck, so she would have to go back anyway. Also, she would have to return to Earth again when...
Deep Space "Question is, are they going to notice us?" Ann asked as she watched as one of the alien vessels came from behind a large chunk of moon and headed straight for them. Ann knew she could not warp out without her drive trying to take some of the debris field with them, which would probably result in the destruction of her warp drive, and/or her ship. In addition, she strongly suspected that the aliens would pick up her inertialess drive's signature, should she use that with them...
“Despite our AIs actually doing the flying, I want every pilot to have his or her hands on the controls at all times when we do this for real, and when we practice as well. Ann and I have put together a rough outline. Everything seems to work in the simulation, but we haven’t done it for real yet. There could very well be glaring errors that only show up when actually flying the patterns. Bottom line: be careful and think about what the next step is. Does the current process make sense with...
When they left the suite a few minutes later, they saw Melissa at the far end of the hall. She seemed to do a double-take, then turned and rushed around the corner, probably heading for the kitchen. A little later, when they walked through the door, she was already setting out two more plates. Jeff pulled Ann tighter against him, and they stopped just inside the kitchen. I know Ann is blushing. Damn, I thought I was too old to blush, but my face feels like it’s on fire. Everyone was seated...
EARLIER IN THE MORNING AT QUINTON TATE'S HOME After his morning shower, Quinton, dressed in his uniform and still buckling on his gun belt, walked into the kitchen. Before he could sit down, the phone rang. "Quinton," he said, putting the instrument to his ear as he finished securing the belt with the keepers. "Well, good morning. Are you planning to go somewhere on your little impromptu vacation?" his Captain asked, cheerily – a little too cheerily. "What vacation?" Quinton joked...
"We still have a problem," Diana said. "I doubt if Billy has ever used a litter box. So how are we going to train him to use it and not pee on the carpet? Since there aren't any pet stores in Winter Park, I guess we can order a kennel on the Internet and have it overnighted, but as late as it is, it will still be day after tomorrow before it gets here..." "Yeah, we were lucky the grocery store even had litter boxes. But we're ahead of you about the kennel," Jeff said. "Arlene had an...
The Retreat ... Charlotte and Ada sat for a moment as Diana's words sank in. Both mother and daughter were clearly skeptical as they furtively glanced at the other three women. Diana let out a chuckle. "You can say it; we won't get mad." Ada hesitated. "This is no joke? You're actually telling us that Susan is your mother and Arlene is your daughter?" "Got it in one," Diana said with a grin. "But..." Ada began. Then, after studying Susan's and Arlene's faces some more, she...
Jeff sat in his usual place at the head of the table. Frank Wainwright sat to Jeff's right as the family (minus four who were eating with Margaret and Tina in their suite) ate lunch. All the Alphas ate a lot, and Jeff usually ate more than most of them, but today, he was hungrier than usual. He had gone through his first plate and was already started on his second one. "Looks like you're a bit hungry today," Frank tactfully said. "I didn't see you after breakfast. What did you do to...
Joyce, Caitlin, Jennie, Melissa and Ann came in with the latter two pushing serving carts. Soon, the table was set and food arrayed in front of Arlene, Diana, Susan and Jeff. The wives' efficiency was not lost on Susan, but she refused to acknowledge it due to her sour mood. Each time she had talked to her daughter or granddaughter on the phone lately, her suspicions that something was going on had increased. Then the introductions in the living room were almost more than she could...
Everyone except Matt and Courtney was waiting in the living room. The new SAC and his wife had borrowed an Escalade and driven down to Winter Park. "HELICOPTER APPROACHING FROM THE NORTH. SECURITY HAS CLEARED IT TO LAND ON OUR PAD." Margaret had called earlier to say that everything had gone without a hitch and they were on the way home, but Angel had been beaten and was in need of medical attention. "Let's go," Jeff said as he started out the door of the living room with Little One...
Aboard Ship, Arlene, Ann and Selina are teaching the Morales family how to field strip, clean and reassemble a pulse rifle. ...”Very good, Mr. Morales. That’s a whole lot better than I did the first time,” Arlene blatantly lied. “Okay, Jasmine, do you know what’s next?” “Well, I did until you scrambled the parts,” Jasmine said with a chuckle, “but I think it’s that thing over there — a modulator, I believe you called it.” And the process went on. The next time they field stripped the...
The Prison Planet As the group neared the second area that was obstructed by boulders, Jeff said with a sigh, “Sorry, Ladies, but I still have a headache from moving the last bunch. No way am I going to play bulldozer just now.” “It’s getting colder in here,” Tosha said as she zipped her jacket, took her gloves out of a pocket and pulled them on. “Is it just me, or is the path sloping downward more?” Kei asked as she and the others followed suit – other than Jeff, who only zipped his light...
Kayla very briefly told everyone what had happened. Just as she was finishing up, Sheriff Tate, who had been eating with the team, walked into the hallway to chat with the others. "I helped the guys move the bodies out. We found a roll of black plastic in the basement and covered the pile of them." "That piece of plastic over there on the floor," Jill said, motioning down the hallway near the theater door, "is that where one of them..." "Yeah," Kayla said. "General Whitworth has a...
As everyone walked down the hall toward the theater, Selina hung back. When Diana turned and caught her eye, Selina, with purpose, walked on past, turned the corner and went on to her suite. If I do not ask, then the answer cannot be no, she thought. Waiting four minutes by her internal clock, she walked back out of her suite, down the hall and peeked around the corner in the direction of the theater. There was no one in the hallway. Shortly, she slowly opened the theater door the tiniest...
With the Alphas at Security headquarters studying the pulse rifle and the women apparently all in the basement, Jeff wandered through the Retreat at a loss as to what he should be doing. Deciding he would work in his lab to pass the time, he returned to the basement. Poking his head in one of the rooms, he got a smile from Kayla who was leading an exercise class – push-ups for the moment. His position allowed him a view of erect nipples on several of his wives, and a couple of the other...

Arlene grabbed Jeff's hand. "Come on, Daddy. Let's go back to our suite. Mom and Selina will be back ... uh sometime." Jeff frowned as he turned back to the others, "Yeah, that's what I'm worried about – the sometime. It's not like Diana to run off like that." Laura put her arm around his waist to get him started toward their suite. "Well, you were the one who kept pushing Diana to go through the academy. I have been through only the first six months there, but all that discipline...
Bobby put her hands on her face and took a breath trying to stifle a giggle. "We're acting like whores," she said, while desperately trying not to reach for Art's cock. Sandra hissed in a breath. "Art, I don't know what's happened to us. Honest, we don't act like this. We've each had one guy — once, and that was just to get rid of our cherries. But it's like we've been given an aphrodisiac. I want you so bad that it's hard to breathe," she finished, not knowing that Art was...
The Colonel’s Office Aboard Ship ...”And Worthington. Hear this! If something happens to my wife, I’ll kill you without a second thought. Now get out of my face before I change my mind and do what I know should be done.” Without saluting, Worthington spun on his heel and stomped out. Jeff sat thinking. Should I tell his Commander why I’m sending him back? After a moment, he shrugged. On second thought, I asked for his best aviators to give them a chance in my unit. No one, other than us,...
