-- Earth time: 2095--
Where was I?
Yes, my first trip to my Island. If I wasn’t nuts before I got here, I was by the time I left.
My arrival...
-- Earth time: 1100--
I coughed and then vomited again.
I dry retched several times and finally sat up as the dizzy sensation abated. I looked around me and found that I was sitting inside a Ring. I knew that it wasn’t the same Ring as the room was also different.
This room had curved walls and had a high domed ceiling that was covered in crystals. They were a lot dimmer than the ones in the other cavern had been. The pattern on the dais was also different.
I spat one last time, trying to rid the taste of vomit from my mouth. Belatedly, I wondered what sort of trouble I had now found for myself. I decided that my life was getting seriously weird.
I started when a male voice said, “Foolish girl, you shouldn’t travel while you are pregnant. Then again, that portal hasn’t been updated in some time, so it didn’t know any better. I was issued an update from the other Portal Books, as I was created. Do you wish me to place lecterns and coordinate books at the other portals in this world?”
“Wouldn’t that tell other people that something has changed?” I asked as if it was perfectly normal to be speaking to a lectern with a glowing book on it.
“Well, yes. Although not many of the portals here work. Most of them must need reseeding, or they are blocked from me for some reason. Some sort of calamity has had happened in this world.”
“From the information that I have downloaded, it was once a great civilisation as shielded cities appear to be on all five main continents. However, I can’t seem to contact the cities or most of the portals that should be here.”
The voice from the book then informed me, “This city had lost its controller. I suggest you find out what has happened to her as it may be wise to reinstate the shields as soon as possible.”
“How the hell do I do that?” I asked crankily. My tummy still felt queasy, I felt disorientated, and I wanted to lie down. Then what the voice had first said penetrated my brain. What the fuck? I was still pregnant! “Wait, wait, do you know how far along I am in my pregnancy?”
“Yes, from your timeline it would be about twelve days. However, you can’t travel in the Portals again until you give birth,” the book told me firmly.
“What? I’m stuck her for nine months?” I blurted out. Fuck me, I was apparently stuck on some other dump of a world, where books talked to you but most of the other stuff, didn’t work anymore. The fact I was on another world, really hadn’t hit me yet. I guess I was in some form of shock and just going with the flow until my brain caught up what was happing.
“In your concept of time, yes. On this world that is registered in my data as being called Amity, the days are measured differently. I’ve been able to access a redundant backup system in one of the old sections of a Keltrian spacecraft that is within this city.”
“The comparisons indicate that a day here is approximately twenty-three of your Earth hours long. They assign each day ten hours and each hour a hundred minutes. They have allotted ten days to a week and four weeks to a month and ten months to a solar year.”
“It has been approximately two thousand years since an event that was called the War of the Wizards. Apparently, it decimated the people on this planet and set them back to the dark ages as far as technology goes. My information states that the section of craft that landed here on Topaz Island arrived about ten years after the War.”
“This bit of news may cheer you up. Apparently, two wizards came here to help the people from one of the other three sections of the craft that landed further West on the continent they called Federation.”
“They had some sort of a plague on the ship. It apparently was made worse when it got into the local population. They believe it bonded with a local variation and made people even sicker. The wizards tried to quell the new outbreak. However, they had both been affected by radiation that leaked from the downed spacecraft, and they both died from its effects some years later.”
“And that is supposed to cheer me up?” I said sarcastically.
“Sorry, no, not that bit obviously. The bit that should cheer you is that the wizards apparently anchored their wizard’s boxes here. You are wearing a magical item so it may be possible that you can claim a wizard’s box or if they have them at least a mage’s box.”
“A wizard’s box will speed up your pregnancy by about two of your months. A mages box may only speed it up half that, but you will at least have good health while you are pregnant and you should be better able fix the City if you have one of them in your position.”
My head was spinning. Wizards? Magical items? Wizard’s boxes? What the fucking hell was the Book on about? “Who the fuck, are you?” I asked in frustration and confusion.
“Oh! Sorry, we get a bit vague when we don’t have people using us regularly. I’m a Coordinate’s Book you may call me Vaughn. My job is to record where this planet is, any portals in this solar system and the general layout of this solar system. Some of the ancient Keltrian satellites in this system are still working.”
“The spacecraft also managed to release new satellites for this planet when it entered this system. They too are still working here so I can access all of them to scan the planet and the system. I then link to my brethren and update the information to them. So they can send magical beings like yourself here when they request it.”
“The odd thing is that I can now only connect to the portal you came from. It seems there is a malfunction, as we believe that you are not in the same period in time, as you would understand it is. Your planet, Earth, seems to have a problem with different forms of radiation interference. This seems to be screwing up the operation of the portals on it.”
“The people on your home planet are desperately in need of cleaning up their act. I’m not even sure if I can send you back close to when you left. I will try to keep contact with your planet all the same,” he assured me.
“So in the meantime, I need to find a wizard’s box and fix this city so I can stay safe in it until I have my child?” I clarified with the book as all of this new information swirled around in my head.
“Sounds about right to me. Oh, there is often a second box that has books in it that should help you to learn the spells you need,” he offered.
“Right,” I said sardonically.
Suddenly remembering my bag, I grabbed a bottle of water from it and drank most of it down. I felt better once I had. At least my mouth didn’t taste so bad. I pulled out one of the packets of potato chips I’d tossed in my bag. I then wandered off to find the bloody box that would help me get out of here, as I ate them.
My mind was in complete turmoil at this point. I wasn’t sure if I was happy about still being pregnant or not. At least I knew it was Michael’s child and not Brian’s child. The problem was that if I turned up with a kid, they could lock Michael up and toss the keys away forever.
I decided there and them that I couldn’t go back to Michael and keep fucking up his life. He was better off without me. I was a screwed up mess and if he was going to be in the Media’s eye due to his invention then the sooner he forgot about me, the better.
With any luck, they will think I committed suicide or something and leave him alone in sympathy. I chuckled to myself, as in one way, I had. No one would be able to find me here. I had wanted to be removed my old life and perversely I had gotten what I had wished for. I shrugged as I walk.
I wasn’t really paying a lot of attention to where I was going, as I was deep in reflection of my sorry life. I decided that I was probably better off here, wherever the fuck here was. I’d have to talk to that infuriating book again I was sure. Who the fuck ever heard of a talking book with attitude? Fuck, I was so screwed.
“Out of the frypan and into the fire,” I muttered to the empty hallway.
I wandered the halls for a while.
I ate my chips and decided that my best option was to put the past behind me. When Brian had first started using me, I had created a door in my mind, and as soon as he left my room, I had opened the door and pushed the event into it.
I knew it was a coping mechanism, but it had worked for years, and I had no qualms pushing my memories of Brian and Michael into the room and slamming the door shut. Thinking about them was pointless, I had reasoned with myself.
For the here and now, it was only me that I to worry about, Oh, and the damn baby. I still couldn’t believe I had missed the signs. I could only blame Michael for making me orgasm for him. Having someone do that to me had been mind blowing, and I was greedy for more.
The intoxicating feelings he had invoked in me had overwhelmed me at the time. It seemed that he only had to touch me and I had wanted him so badly it was all I could think about. I had never felt like that with another, and it had been heady while it lasted.
I knew if I had just started to ovulate, it would have only intensified my desires to have him in me. In many ways, I guess it made it easier for me to deny that I had loved him. I was sure that it was only my hormones driving me and he had been the bloke who had been available.
I tried to convince myself that we wouldn’t have lasted anyway. We were too different. I wouldn’t have known how to cope with a big loving family. That concept wasn’t one I had ever experienced, and I had no idea how to deal with.
I had convinced myself that I was better off here and that if I could work out how to run this place, then I should just stay. A part of me knew I was hiding from my problems, but I ruthlessly pushed that thought away.
I blinked and focused, as I realised I had stopped walking. I looked up to find I was standing outside a door. I had no idea why I had stopped here. I looked, but I couldn’t see how the door opened.
“Where the fuck is the bloody handle?” I asked the air. I stepped back and looked above the door, but I couldn’t see a sensor to activate it. ‘Touchpad, ‘ I thought.
I ran my hands down either side of the door frame. I found a tickly spot on the right side and pressed my hand to it. The door opened, and I grinned in delight. I walked into the room, and some form of hidden lighting in the ceiling brightened the room.
I looked back down the hall that I had just walked along. I realised there must be some form of sensors as it was lit back the way I presumed I had come from, but it was still dark about 5m further down the hallway. Satisfied, I turned back to investigate the room.
I smiled and then chuckled when I saw the four boxes. I walked up to them. They had no visible handles or latches on them, either. I looked between the two that I felt were the wizard’s boxes, I wasn’t sure why. As I stood there, I got this weird feeling that one of them was calling to me.
I placed my hands on the box, but nothing happened for a minute. “Open, you stupid box,” I said peeved. It probably wasn’t very nice of me, but I’d had a trying day, and I was tired and anxious about my situation. Still, nothing happened, and then I felt that the box was sulking.
Pissed-off, I narrowed my eyes and looked at the box. “Bloody hell, just my luck to get a moody box of tricks,” I said. I giggled as I felt its response was of indignation. I had a strange sensation that whatever it was that lived in the box was male.
I got this image of a cranky old wizard with long silver hair and pointy ears in my head. I sighed. ‘Fucking men, ‘ I thought. Aloud I said, “Please open for me. I need your help. I’m pregnant and don’t come from here. The coordinates book said I need you to help me fix the city and to protect my child.”
I felt a light touch on my mind and made sure all the doors to my bad memories and self-doubts were shut tight. I projected the feelings of being lost, alone and scared, at the mind touching me. I felt it waver and then to my relief, the lid clicked, and the box opened.
“Thank you,” I said gratefully.
I looked in the box realised it had several items of jewellery in it. I plucked out the ring. The band was plain, but it had six different gems mounted on it. One looked like the crystals in the cave and was the central gem. Around it were a tangerine quartz, an aquamarine, a pink sapphire, a rainbow moonstone and a purple agate.
I placed it on my middle finger on my left hand, as that was where it wanted to go. Happy, I then lifted out the chain and medallion that were made of rose gold and looked at it. The medallion was about 4cm at its widest points and was flat with hexagonal sides. A pale yellow square cut gem about 10mm square and about 4mm thick was in the centre and visible from both sides.
Five symbols were etched on one side. At the top was an eye. On one side were a book and a flaming torch. On the other side were what looked like, a mouth blowing out air and a leaf. On the back was an inscription. It read it as saying, ‘I learn to serve.’ The words underneath it said, ‘Psychic Wizard.’
I liked that. I had always believed my mind was my greatest asset. I placed the chain over my head and let the medallion settle between my breasts where it seemed to be contented.
I then lifted out the diadem. It was also done in the rose gold, and the thin, flat strips of metal had been shaped into three sets of eyes. The middle set of eyes had a tangerine quartz gem in one and the crystal in the other. An aquamarine and a pink sapphire were on one side, and the moonstone and agate made up the centres of the eyes on the other.
I placed the diadem on my forehead and felt the being that lived in the items connect to me on some deeper level. It seemed a little disturbed. I found myself asking, “Are you all right?”
I sensed sadness and loss and then it seemed to settle into acceptance as if it knew that I understood what it was to feel loss and pain of a loved one. I found myself sending the being a calming feeling and it seemed more content and happy that it at least had me now and that it wasn’t alone anymore.
I also felt that I wasn’t alone anymore. I was surprised by how good it felt to know that this being would help take care of me, as he was now part of me. He didn’t want to be alone any more than I did. We were kindred souls.
I wished I could talk to it, but while it seemed to understand me, it didn’t seem to be able to communicate with me other than through feelings and the odd picture in my head. I then decided that maybe it was a good thing as only crazy people held conversations with odd personalities in their heads.
I pulled out the device I knew was a wand and found myself pushing it to my left hip. I didn’t have a clue what to do with the wand or the crystal ball. I eyed off the ball and decided, for now, it could stay where it was. The word communication came to me, but I doubted there was anyone to communicate with via the crystal ball.
Out of curiosity, I went and touched the second wizard’s box and was surprised when it opened. I didn’t feel a presence in the box. I touched the diadem, and it felt cold, mine had been warm.
I had the feeling of sadness came to me. I guessed that the bling in the box no longer had a spirit helper attached to it. I also felt that the items needed to be fixed, but I was at a loss as I had no idea how to do it or if I ever could.
Sadly, I closed the lid and opened the two book boxes. Both had about twenty books in them, and at the time, I guessed that I had some serious reading to do. I put one of the book boxes that I believed was mine, on top of the wizard’s box and was surprised by how light they were.
-- Earth time: 2087-- The next eight years were busy for me. I felt I had become a permanent student. For every course I could do at the University, I could do two online. I had to do catch-up courses for chemistry, maths and physics before I could enrol properly. This took up the first year. I was glad I had plenty of money and didn’t have to worry about finances. I then started studying seriously. I was amazed by just how much I had to learn. Even with my phenomenal memory, it seemed to...
Summer was nearly at an end for us in Federation. We were worried about the two missing boxes, but considering the size of Amity and past experiences, I knew they could be hard to find. In my case, I had no link to the boxes. They were not my type of magical boxes. Raina and her mob had linked together, but they couldn’t feel the boxes either. We decided that it would take a Queen Wizard to find them and we didn’t have one on this planet. We could only hope that they weren’t claimed or that...
We spent three full days packing, two days shopping in Brisbane, one in Sydney, two in New York and three in Paris. We also visited about thirty other places in the two weeks as we did a worldwide tour of Earth. The longer stay in Paris was just because Crystal and Pearl wanted to go there at least once and they wanted to hit the fashion shops. Us blokes were outvoted. Apparently, Crystal and Pearl had three votes each to our one. I have a feeling they were trying to hoodwink us, but Mike...
-- Earth time: 2078-- “Oh, fuck! Oh, fuck!” I cussed. As soon as I felt that weird feeling, I knew the damn book had sent me home. Daniel looked at me in surprise. He frowned at me. I sighed and sat up. I then picked him up, and balanced my son on my hip I walked over the Lectern. “Send me back immediately,” I demanded. “I’m sorry, but I can’t do that. I’ve lost contact with the portal you originated from. You look familiar. Let me see. Oh! This is very strange. According to my records,...
-- Crystal -- I awoke depressed. Another day to get through. I rolled out of Kegan’s arms and moved over so I could flop back onto my back. I thought about Vaughn and Harmony. It has been nearly three months since my portal book said he had connected to a portal on another planet. He has tried to send me there, but for some reason, the portal on the other side refuses to let him send me. ‘I didn’t meet protocols’, were the replies that Vaughn got. He even connected to the portal on...
I was speechless when Crystal walked in to say that Raina and the babies were fine. She was the woman in the crystal ball. I guess Zara had known that she was to be my paramour. But I think something did change. I don’t believe Zara saw me as an Empress in the other version of our future. I drank in Crystal’s beauty and felt myself harden at the sight of her. I knew she was still to be mine in this version of reality. I had no problem with that at all. I glanced at Storm’s other three...
I looked at the camera. Seven months old, Devin stood on my right thigh, and his brother Quin stood on my left with my arms supporting them. Sky sat cross-legged across on my lap and leant against me. Kim was at my right shoulder with his right arm around Sarah. Beside him was Lindell her arm around him and Bonny. Raina fussed and finally said she had a lovely picture. Sky scrambled down to run to her big sister and see the results. Sarah bent and kissed me and claimed Devin while Bonny...
I’ve decided the last few chapters of this book should be Mikal’s summary. Of all of us, he has probably had the most interesting year. While a lot has happened to me too, I think the others have summed up my major achievements in their way. I know that I’m a very content man. Being surrounded by the huge loving family that I have managed to gather just makes me an even happier one. I find plenty to keep me occupied and having my kids has also been a major distraction, towards which I’ve...
Penny, Alexus, Kale and Selwyn blinked to Tinble City. They were sad to find that the shield had failed. The devastation suggested that it had failed many years before. When they entered the Citadel, they found it dark and quiet. They activated their wands, so they provided light and using the stairs they headed to the room that the SAI should be located in. They found that she had died. The dried out mess in the tank suggested that she had been dead for a year or possibly two. Kale...
Once were docked we spent the afternoon wandering the docks. We worked out many of the ships were from Weston. A few were from Federation, and several smaller ships were from Orient. They also had a large fishing fleet. There were plenty of taverns and other places dedicated to the entertainment of sailors. We checked out the markets, and I even found a bank and organised an account. I wandered in and out of several jewellery stores. I found some of their styles interesting, but from what I...
“Fuck!” I said aloud. “Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!” I was still standing in a Ring. However, it wasn’t the same ring that I had been standing inside of, only moments before. I was in another cavern. This cavern also had a disused look similar to the one I had been in, but it was cleaner and better sealed. I looked up and noticed the crystals were a lot dimmer and there was not as many, as in the other cavern. I had a feeling if I wanted to go home, they would need to be a lot brighter and recharged....
David was checking out the information Carline had given him. With JJ’s help and the new satellites, they had built a comprehensive map of Federation. From what he could determine, the people had spread out around the coasts, radiating out from where the sections of the original starship had landed. Federation was the largest content on the planet. It linked into the Southern pole and then stretched up to the equator. It crossed it in a large, wide chunk of land. Several short, broader...
A runner turned at the homestead. My spouses were coming home. I immediately started tossing out orders, to get the carts on the road and get the herders assembled. I was running around like a clucker with its head cut off. Greta and Edith calmly took over and told me to go. I was on Opal so fast it wasn’t funny. I was pacing the wharf waiting for Captain Hail to tie up his ship so he could drop the planks and I could board. I raced up the plank and stopped dead at the sight of Bea and...
Tom was correct, and we did arrive in Weston just after lunch. He followed Reilly’s directions and ended up pulled up on a nice wide dock over to the southern side of the long bay. It was a little removed from the other docks, but as he explained, they were considered a higher end market area these days. The area had once been a big meat works, which was why they had the separate dock and sale pens for livestock. With the changes in population, the meatworks moved further north as it seemed...
After the fun of entering the Palace compound, we arrived at a courtyard and dismounted. We were then shown through umpteen dozen hallways and rooms, each gaudier than the last, to get to a waiting room. As we walked, I wondered if the King was related to Higgins. He had the same horrible taste in decorations. John and Tony left us in a little alcove to wait. We settled in, as I didn’t expect to be received in any hurry. I was glad we’d had something to eat before we were interrupted. I did...
-- Storm - Earth time 2102-- Kim and Lindell had decided to come on the trip with Sarah and me. Sarah dropped her shuttle down onto an open paddock near the section of Torus in the old crater. As we disembarked, a man dressed in what I’d call cut down buckskins approached. He was taller than the average here, lean and fit with sable hair tied back off his face. He looked at most as if he was twenty years old. With him was a very shapely woman. She had paler, more honey coloured hair but...
-- Daniel -- I’m surprised by how well Pip and I have learnt to work together. It’s not been an easy task, and we both realise that we still have a lot of work to do and a lot to learn about running a city and a community. The people we rescued have been settling into the city and taking over a lot of the work of rebuilding their lives and new homes. I think the fact that they could spread out a bit sorted out a lot of the animosity between the different factions. Captain Dale has been of...
-- Storm - Amity - Earth time: 2102 -- We were in a right pickle. Daniel and Pip stayed a couple of extra days to help with the clean-up and burying of the dead. Even my other wizards turned up in Nickel City and then teleported to us to help. Ulu even brought Carline and Sharon with him. Carline was Leslie’s only living daughter, and Sharon was Anne’s daughter to a different shifter, called Trip. They were both pretty upset about their mothers dying like they had, as one would expect....
I woke early and crawled out of the bodies piled onto my bed. I still liked about four hours sleep, and I think I had slept so solidly due to utter exhaustion. It had been a very fulfilling night, and my loved ones had worked hard to please me. I showered and dressed and then popped down to the café and grabbed some food and a large pot of tea to get me going. I asked JJ where the ships were, near Saran and Green Island. She pointed out that the ships near Saran were just off the coast. I...
We were sad to leave Bron and his people. Sable was delighted that his dad had become a Lord Wizard. We had a good laugh about the fact that he truly was Lord Bull Bron Horn now. Silver and Rose thought it very fitting, as far as they were concerned he had always acted like a Lord Wizard anyway. I suspected that little would change on Green Island following the upgrades as, the Bulls were an exceptional group of people and led their people by example as it was. Bron said he had no plans to...
Davo actually felt the vibrations from the initial small explosion. He was perched on hands and knees, ready to lower his skinny, indigenous arse and tall, lanky frame, down over the metre-high ledge. Water had undercut the opening of the tunnel they had been following. The others had already fanned out to investigate the largest cavern they had been in yet. They all spun around when Davo screamed out, “Oh fuck! Get down, get down.” They watched as he dropped over the edge of the ledge and...

The Americans spent the next two days doing mining and safety inductions and examining the latest maps in the evenings. They then spent two more days in the main mine being shown how they were currently mining the opals and what boulder opals looked like in their natural state. Both Mark and Bambie found the tours, the geology of the caverns and the mining procedures fascinating. In preparation for their arrival, Smithy had the entrance cavity to the caverns they were to survey, hollowed...
?Well, it's been a month already. Of course I'm going to be impatient.? ?Yeah, and what exactly have you done besides let him know you're accessible?? Tanya made a valid point. Alan sat back on his computer chair and frowned. He'd pulled out all the stops to get his roommate Tom in his clutches; a slutty maid outfit, a makeup artist, and a bet gone awry had done wonders. A sore ass and exhaustion had kept them from round two, and after that... Tom had been avoiding him as much as...
I went for a hike. I’d not been out to the Isa for ages, and you still didn’t have to go far out of town to be in the bush. Most of the area was cattle stations and mine sites. I bummed a lift to the airport with a bloke heading that way from my hotel and then hiked out to the man-made dam they called Lake Moondarra. It was about 14km in, and I had packed my small backpack for the day. Making sure, I had plenty of water in my two belt canteens and steriliser tablets. I had a box of my...
‘Ho-ho, ho-ho, a bussing we will go.’ Actually, I hate buses as much as I hate planes. But they are a necessary evil when you travel. I’d had to bus to a hotel in town for the night. I then bussed to a different airport. I then jumped on my next flight to get to Kuching and then another one to get to the Mulu airport. A friend had organised for me to stay in Mulu Village with a family that he had stayed with previously. From here, I could pretty much do as I wished. I’d organised a couple...
I got up and found the loo. Upon inspection, I decided that it needed to go. I headed downstairs to the better bathroom and used it instead. I even took a quick bath. I put on my clean set of clothes and spruced them up a little, now I knew how. I tightened the waist on the pants and lengthened them a little with the excess material. Then I trimmed some of the excesses out of the shirt by tightening the weave and trimming the material. It looked a higher quality of material now and a better...
The rest of that week was busy. I collected a heap of new crystals and Wally, Walter, and I went around the house embedding them in the walls. We then went room to room, and we decided on a colour scheme for each. Once we were all happy, we liked it, I transported the furniture I’d picked for the room, and we arranged it accordingly. Pammy suggested we move some to different rooms, so they didn’t look cluttered, so the boys moved it. I then inspected the alteration and approved the moves...
I helped myself to the port and sat across from Kim. I asked why he was down here alone and he pouted at me and told me it was my fault. When I gave him an inquiring look, he grinned and said I shouldn’t have winked at him. I laughed. “Sorry, I’ve never actually been with a bloke, but for some reason, I thought if I did, you wouldn’t be a bad place to start.” He must have liked this answer because he said, “Damn straight! You’d break my heart if you did it with anyone else before...
I got up early. I wanted to get the building I owned fixed before it fell down. I also needed to do a bit of Lord Wizard’s stuff. I tried not to disturb Kim when I got up, and I headed to the cavern workshop and double checked what was required to build the boxes for Kim and Mathew. I was finding I only slept for about four hours and I was awake and ready to go. Most of the rest I was learning slept about seven hours. I found all I needed in the cavern, except the copper. I still had...
We went with the others to Mathew’s place. We sat and talked for a bit and then the couples wandered off to find a room. I wasn’t surprised that the new couples had been invited, nor that they disappeared early. I was left with Lindell. She giggled and said, “Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.” The others wouldn’t know if we sat here for the night or not. I finished my drink and said, “My place.” I got up, and I made her stand and then blinked her to my room. She was surprised to...
I woke to a cock between my arse cheeks. Kim was rocking his hard cock between my arse cheeks. He had already managed to penetrate me and was happily working in deeper, and my arse didn’t seem to mind at all. I found my cock was rocking in between Lindell’s cheeks. I could feel Junior was already between her cunnie lips and she wasn’t helping by encouraging him to bury in further. I groaned as Kim pushed in harder and Lindell pushed back onto me. I think they both realised they were...
We found the formal dining room set up for us. I think I had to accept that I couldn’t eat with the staff now the house was getting a mistress. Kim whispered something to Lindell. She looked at me and then headed for the kitchen. I took my seat and then looked up to see my staff heading into the dining room, their plates in one hand and a dish of food in the other. They all picked a seat and made themselves comfortable as Kim and Lindell sat either side of me. I beamed at them, and they all...
Our staff were happy to see us home. We had to attend meetings with the Magistrates and learned that Veldor had flipped out on them. The man had not liked admitting a few home truths as to how he obtained his wealth or his wife. They ended up sending him to a special place where they put people, who had difficulties relating to the world and that had been convicted of serious crimes. All of his wealth was confiscated. They determined that he has used Raelene’s wealth and title to accrue...
I don’t sleep as long as my loves. I got up and decided to consult the crystal ball on the location of the broken medallions. I was surprised they weren’t in the wing I couldn’t approach but in a different house. I blinked over but stayed invisible. The house had a couple of ‘protection’ spells, but they couldn’t detect me while I was inside the invisibility shield. I entered the establishment and found what I was looking for. They were stuffed in a box in the man’s study. They looked like...
It didn’t surprise me to find a mouth on my cock when I woke. Kim was happily licking me and sliding his mouth down my cock. My groan and tightening hips made him aware I was awake. He sucked me harder making my hips flex in time with him. Once he was happy that I was suitably prepared, he popped off my cock. “Fuck Lindell, so I can fuck you,” he asked. My wife removed her tit from my mouth where it had found itself and grinned at me. She moved on to all fours and wiggled her arse at me. I...
In the morning, we had a staff meeting. I explained that we had to go home for a few days and then we had to take the Sarans home. I appointed Oslo as my manager and told him to contact James in Iron Hills for his supplies. If he needed more staff, he was welcome to hire them. He could also have the flat above, once we left. He liked this idea very much. He and Wayne asked if their girls could stay. They wanted to marry them. I don’t think this surprised any of the staff. I said I’d ask the...
David James cussed when he banged his busted knee on the old trunk. He rubbed it and noticed the knee was swelling up again. He was supposed to stay off it for at least another week, but that wasn’t happening. While in the hospital, he had been contacted by a lawyer about his Father’s estate. He owned an apartment building containing sixteen units in the city of Cairns, Queensland, on the northern end of the Esplanade. The lawyer had a buyer. UNSEC (The United Nations Security...
Ulu was feeling miserable. It had turned colder the further north they had travelled, and they had found the thin blankets offered little protection. Ulu hated the cold and was feeling very disgruntled at his confinement. In the last hour or so, the ship had been rocking and rolling more than normal. Several of the girls had been sick in the privy and were a bit green about the gills. It had gotten dark earlier. Ulu heard the sailors shout to get the sails down as they were being chased by...
The spaceship got under way, and they headed off to Mars. This Explorer ship was one of their newest at about 120m long and 60m at its widest. It looked like a flattened oblong. It had two liveable decks that were about 3m high with a meter crawl space between. Helm, food-prep, a sickbay, a rec-room and labs were on this deck. Six bunkrooms were on the second deck, with perishable storage and a communal bathroom. The third deck was the biggest and housed the transporter that seated four of...
David woke slowly. He reached out to find the other side of the bed empty. He frowned. Carol rarely got up before him, as the lady liked her sleep. A tear rolled down his cheek, as he remembered that Carol would be sleeping forever. They had grown close over the weeks they had been together, and while he didn’t love her, he had enjoyed her company, both in and out of bed. The silly bugger hadn’t put the safety harness on the chair on properly. When they had left in a hurry, he had grabbed...
Doc Allan Avon and Kale were working in his lab with the berries. Allan was an avid scientist and loved learning about why different components in plants affected people. He had distilled quite a few poisons and toxins in his time. He had even found plants that helped with pain and stopped wounds from getting infected. He loved plants. They had found a small epiphyte plant growing the berries on one of the trees near the farm. Kale had helped him carefully remove it, and they put it in a...
David was sitting at the helm. He was watching the pictures of the planet below scroll across his screens. He knew why it was called Hades. It was a weird planet. It had an axial tilt of about fifteen degrees. The equator was boiling hot, but Sarah said it was actually cooling. It also had huge ice caps that she told him were, in fact, melting and making the sea less saline. It had active volcanoes caused by something hitting the planet hard and what life was on the planet was basic at...
The magicians spent a week trying to sort out the Palatines at Spur. As Markus had predicted, it was a mess. Some wanted to stay, some want to go. This included both slaves and invaders. Some of the women wanted to keep their man others emphatically didn’t. Then there were the kids. The magicians had arrived en masse and Storm had them do a blanket spell to remove the bad spells that were on the people in the valley. They had agreed to put a temporary spell on them so that they couldn’t...
They decided it was time to get some rooms sorted out. The ladies took them upstairs to show them the rooms that they had picked out. They, in turn, selected rooms nearby, so they stayed together. Everyone agreed to meet up for lunch in an hour or so, once they were settled in. David and his girls collected their basics from the ship and made themselves at home. David and Kelli both had to laugh at the starry-eyed look on Sarah’s face. She didn’t seem the least perturbed that Storm already...
For Raina, it had been a bitter-sweet eighteen months. She loved being at college, and she learned a lot more about how her crafts were made and programmed. She had found her input from what she had flown was making its way to the designers. She loved her daughter whom she had called Dana and suffered through the death of her mother who had a run-in with a kangaroo one night coming back down the range from the Atherton Tablelands to Cairns in her old van. She had only been fifty, and it...
Ben and the boys were picking their rooms. They had discovered upon the first inspection that Zarka was very well equipped for a crew of eight. She had four large bedrooms with huge beds in them, and each had an ensuite. One was either side of the lift exit and the other two towards the back of the ship separated by their ensuites. DT and KJ decided on the two by the lifts. They dropped their packs on the beds and checked out the amenities. The showers looked strange, but they decided...
They finally joined the other three in the kitchen. DT had been cooking and teaching Zarka, with a very attentive KJ helping. Raina wondered which boy was going to get lucky because she had a feeling one of, if not both were also going. She had been as surprised as Ben when Zarka made herself known to them. She had also realised Zarka didn’t really need her to fly the ship. She was obviously capable of doing it herself, since she was apparently, also the ship. That was an explanation,...
Raina found Zarka and DT in the dining area an hour or so later. “Where is KJ?” she asked as she helped herself to coffee. The other two grinned at her like Cheshire cats. “What did you do to him?” she asked. Zarka said while shaking her head slowly, “DT was very naughty.” DT blushed at Raina’s enquiring look. “Oh?” she said. Zarka nodded, “Yes, very, very naughty. I thought them Russians could be naughty, but DT is a bad boy. Poor KJ couldn’t decide if he was coming or going.” DT...
They were preparing to leave when a young man appeared with a backpack. “Hi Daniel, I didn’t know that you were coming to visit,” Trixy said. “Not quite Trixy. I’m going with them,” he announced. Raina frowned at him and walked up to him. She gently touched his cheek and looked into his eyes. He gave her a cheeky grin and wiggled his eyebrows at her, and she had to smile back. Ben felt a prickle of unease at their interaction. He was a nice looking young man about 178cm tall, with his...
His Eminence, Prime Bishop Richard the First, sat on his throne and strummed his first two fingers of his left hand. His birth name was Dick Baker, but there were few people alive, who knew this. Only a select few called him Richard. Most people called him Your Eminence or Prime Bishop. He was a short, rotund man with thinning grey hair and a bald patch on the back of his head. His complexion was mottled, and his skin looked patchy with small areas of scabby rashes all over his body. His...
Princess Olivia stood at 158cm tall in her soft diamond studded slippers. Her short mop of tight white, curls surrounded her face like a fluffy cloud. Her large light purple eyes could pin you against the wall when you upset her. Her skin had a light, peachy hue, and her mother said she blushed prettily. She had also somehow ended up with pointy tips on her ears. Her nose was a little unfortunate. Olivia had busted it when she was six, and it now tipped down at the end. It flattened out her...
Olivia jumped down off the waggon and pulled off her hat, to wipe her brow. She dusted it off against the thin linen of her wide flowing pants and looked around. If you looked at where she stood from the air, the mountain range formed a large ‘Y’. It was called the Yani Mountain Range. In the fork of the ‘Y’ was an area that was known as the Forbidden Valley. It was believed that all who approached the valley were turned away. Silver Kingdom sat on the south side of the longest leg of the...
Olivia and Markus both woke refreshed. They headed down to the café and ordered breakfast. Patina happily reported, “Lord Paul and his people had a dreadful night. Six of his men had deserted in the night, and he only has sixteen now. Lord Paul had a particularly bad night. He is a grumpy boy this morning.” Olivia and Markus had to snigger at his misfortune. “Your people are also fine,” Patina told them. Olivia asked, “So how do we convince the rest of the intruders to bugger off?” “Well,...
Storm and Sarah had been on their way to Silver City when Alexus had called them. They then stayed with them for a few days to them to help out, before heading to Silver City. Now that Alexus’s had his apprentice’s box working, he and Penny believed they could get things, up and running during the winter season ahead. Kale and Selwyn planned to help the couple for a few more days before joining David and Kelli in what was to be their new home in Nickle City. Kale and Selwyn were having a...
To say the wizards stole the show would be putting it politely. While they had arrived in the more acceptable manner by coming to the front door and waiting to be announced, that was about all they did that was mundane. Olivia, Warren and Lillian were amused as they watched them enter the ballroom. To start with, they were the tallest people there. Sarah, Zarka and Payton were breathtaking. There was more than one man in the room who wanted to bury his head in their tits. The fact that that...
The sextet was complete. David had become the unofficial leader of the sextet even though they were theoretically equal. He brought his fellow team members up to speed with what Master Bart had told him regarding the political situation in Federation. Keven recommended that they go to see her grandmother, Domo Leslie and that they should get her side of the story. Keven’s sisters, Levi and Selwyn, also agreed this was a good place to start. The rest agreed, and they all blinked to the...
The sextet had a busy time ahead. They spent most of the first week just sorting out who was to do what to get the girls set up. Aaden was a huge help as he outlined what was required and how Lord Storm ran his presses and printing shops. One of the first things they decided to do was fix the road between the two cities, as it needed some serious work. Keven’s City, Rockville, was also on the coastline. The road from Greco her city was severely rutted and had to cross several low-lying...
