When the baby's head emerged he cried loud and long. Palus froze having never having seen a white baby before. His red hair tousled in a way that prompted squeals from Celine.
"His hair is red as fire!" Celine stuttered in her soft voice.
"A holy, white child. You are a blessed mother Hazel," Palus said, cutting the cord bonding mother to son.
"Mother he is so large. So beautiful," Celine stated, holding the crying baby for a moment before putting her brother to their mother's breast.
"My son. I have a son," Hazel responded. Her thick, husky voice a testament to the long labor and hours of missed sleep.
"It's only fitting he emerged to the red sky," Swarta pronounced. "His birth will cause tongues to wag like a stern wind."
One of the other healers went around cleaning up Hazel and the afterbirth. She pushed me aside and that shove seemed to push my brain back into gear. Palus pushed the window open to give us more light and fresh air, the reddish-orange ball hung low in the eastern sky, over the tree tops, the high clouds shifted with the red color before the wind.
Celine wrapped her arms around me as tight as a snake. "I have a brother. I have a brother. Never have I heard of a pink skinned baby," she puffed. She had worked herself out of breath.
I kissed Celine's forehead, feeling the same joy in my heart. Hazel's eyes were closed as the baby suckled. She looked so tired. Exhausted from the long labor, Hazel's sweat needed wiping again. I worked myself out of Celine's clutches and took up a clean cloth, gently wiping my lover's neck causing Hazel's eyes popped open.
"You did that just to see my nipples harden," Hazel accused. A grin on her face expressed she was teasing me.
I caressed Hazel's cheek, and responded, "Honey, it's too early for you to work me up for another son."
All the women barked out sudden laughter.
Hazel clasped my hand, "I'll get you for that." She paused and added, "Actually, my daughter will get you in my place."
Palus was checking on the baby and interjected, "Now now no jealousy, Hazel. We will clean you up and get you going as soon as we can."
Hazel laughed, knocking my son off her teat, but he quickly found it again with Hazel's help. All the women were in a warm mood, after being worried about the difficult labor.
"Arthur, is her milk tasty?" I asked.
Hazel locked eyes with me. "His name is Arthur?" We never had talked about names together and I'd almost forgotten that boys are named by the father.
"Yes, Arthur is a proud, strong name. A rulers name of old," I responded as the first thoughts that came out of my mouth.
My response greatly pleased Hazel. She said, "My son, Arthur. A wizard's name."
"Come to think about it I don't remember hearing that name used here."
I felt a sneaky sense of triumph at the solid name and there were murmurings of approval around the room. Palus blew me a kiss from across the room, expressing her approval. As a result of her efforts, Hazel yawned, Swarta attracting my attention and nodding to the bedroom door.
I kissed Hazel, a slow, loving nibble of her lip. "I need to go announce the baby's arrival. You rest; Palus will look after you and Arthur."
Hazel squeezed my hand and closed her eyes. I guided Celine out of the door with me, Swarta and a concubine following behind us. The concubine closed the door and walked off, but Swarta put her hand on my chest stopping me. Swarta kissed me and then kissed Celine.
"Both of you will need to take a nap and get some rest. You were wonderful to comfort Hazel all night long," Swarta said. "I will find the Town Crier to announce Arthur's arrival. Give us time to organize the tower and we will get a breakfast for both of you."
Celine answered, "Thank you. Our schedule was thrown off and a nap is a good reset before we do more serious things, like make a son."
Swarta smiled, spun-around and walked down the stairs, while Celine guided me to her bedroom. She looked sideways at me as we walked inside the room, closing the door behind us. Celine went to the window and closed it, pulling a curtain across, darkening the room. She lifted her dress right off, but I could see her shapely figure clearly in the dull light, her perky breasts fitting her body size perfectly. Her slim waist and broad hips made me feel the rush of blood to my face.
"Get undressed, Von," Celine's soft voice reviving my brain as she stood there waiting for me to move.
Celine moved towards the bed, lifting the covers and slid in, holding them up for me to join her. I slid in, after stripping myself of my ale-smelling shirt and pants. I slid beside her and she covered us up. For a long moment she stared at me in the dull light, licking her lips as I gently ran my hand over her bare stomach. In a sudden burst of movement, I locked my lips to hers, our hungry hands explored each other with sudden animalistic fever. We broke apart as suddenly as we'd started, I appreciated the fetching sight before my eyes. Her collarbone was uncovered so I leant forward and kissed it. "I don't think we are going to wait for a nap."
I loved her smell and desired to taste her lips again, our tongues dueled; and, a fierce arousal filled my erection, which rubbed against her hip. Celine held my gaze as my finger circled her nipple for the first time. I felt her rapid breath on my cheek and neck. I pulled on her nipple, extending it with my grip, and watched her face. The cessation of her breath was followed by a moan, which I elicited by sliding my hand along the length of her slit, teasing her more with another pinch of her extended nipple.
"Von, I have waited so long for your touch," Celine said. Her face changed to an intensity I'd seen many times before.
Celine gyrated her hips up and a leg shifted over me. My lover crawled up my body kissing her way to my lips. Her soft skin felt wonderful against my nipples; a ripple of tingles sending goosebumps down my body. She reached between us, guiding my length to her entrance, as she sat up on me, pressure building up in me, a craving for her warmth and tightness. Celine spread her nether lips wide with her fingers and with a smile of concentration on her face, she pulled her body up my trunk, slowly impaling her vagina.
"That hurt," She panted, looking me in the eyes. "Now the rest of you needs to rest in its new home."
Celine inched her body closer to me, forcing my hard shaft to gain further purchase in her tight channel. I spared a glance at our connection, and then looked back into her dark eyes. I lunged my hips up and speared my full length the rest of the way. Celine peered intently at me, smiling, not moving as I continued in a slow rhythm.
"I feel so full when you do that, Von. The friction is unbelievably pleasant," she mewed. "Your imposing manhood is more exciting than mother explained."
I felt a slight shuddering along her walls when I stroked into her. The sass in her face pleased me. She circled her hips, making her own claims on me. Celine allowed me to keep surging into her with my hips, her head violently shaking side-to-side. I swallowed my feelings of pleasure, staring at my young lover experiencing her first coupling.
"You are beautiful, Celine," I croaked out.
My lover exaggerated her hip movements as she leaned over and kissed me. I could tell she was hiding something behind her smile even before her words started to form. Celine's eyes always tightened when she was going to say something cheeky or naughty.
"I don't have sneak into your bed for pre-dawn tastes of your seed anymore," Celine whispered, lunging her hips into a rapid pace of undulations.
The thrill of her tight channel rubbing me quickly, quivering around my shaft, slowed down my mental processes. My eyes traveled to Celine's stare and understanding reached my brain. "You've been giving me morning blow jobs all this time!"
The bright grin on Celine's face hit me, like a cat pawing a mouse. My breathing became labored as I fought to contain the impulse to flood her with my seed. I enjoyed this feeling and didn't want it to end yet.
She denied my self-control, and added, "It was always me that drank your morning seed. My mother insisted I received my master's body magic in her bed. Besides, I needed to learn to share our lover with her."
I felt the bliss of streams of seed spurting into the depth of her womb. I held her hips tight to me through all three long pulses. Celine's tight gripping vaginal walls stroked me with pleasure, squeezing and tightening over and over.
Celine cried out, "Arrrrgh." Her body shook like a tree in a wind storm as pleasure consumed both of us. I held her soft body to me, wrapping my arms around her; and then, rubbing her from the tip of her shoulder blades to the bottom of her ass, I felt such comfort and satisfaction. My eyelids felt so heavy and I felt so at peace.
Webster Mission Log: Summary
Signals filter into my intranet from my amplifiers on the planet. Another birth. A special birth. Impulses flow to my test bed, initiating new routines measured against standard activation protocols. My pride can't be measured. Cadet Solon and I have a healthy son. Increased mental acuity is anticipated with the larger neural pathways created in this child. Tests conclude cross-sectional area of muscle fibers will generate superior strength and have a greater capacity for physical endurance. Nanoreinforced joint strength exceeds expectations to deal with skeletal muscle reactive forces. My statistical strength prediction model calculates our son will have muscle strength of a heavy-world born child, but with superior oxygenation systems.
Data confirms this mother's production of my special oligosaccharides works well with my son's enhanced immune system. I am confident my son can fight any bacterial infection off while supplied with this complex sugar in the milk. Milk consumption exceeds anticipated requirements. New generation children will need more production from their mother. Medical nanomite modification uploaded for broadcast.
Production of drone mosquito complete. Repair bot 205 assigned to deliver the batch to Cornerstone for immediate planetary insertion. I have solved the lack of an implant problem for mothers and children. Thus far I rely heavily on my ward's fluid exchanges to analyze and adjust nanomites in our women and children. My drone mosquito will seek the other information I need. They look almost like a biological mosquito but are my new medical monitoring aid, which will burst data to the spy satellite. Like a mosquito, my drone's head is specialized for receiving sensory information and for feeding. It has eyes and a pair of segmented antennae. The antennae will sense nanomite radio frequencies for target hosts. The head has an elongated stinger for blood sampling and a nanomite adjustment sequencer. Once sampled my servers will check the data and instruct the drone to inject any new nanomite sequence orders, updating the host's system. Solar power from my drone's wings will feed the electrical system, but size limitations require this data collection system to shift into a hibernation mode at night, or while under heavy cloud coverage.
Passive sensors near the wormhole report scattered signs of ambient energy that is not normal in nature. This type of energy is consistent with high-powered sensor pulses. I theorize these ambient energy particles may be residual elements of a data stream that randomly survived traveling down the worm hole. This type of data acquisition is difficult using passive sensors, I am fortunate to have touched this scattered data. Game-theory routine recommendation accepted, launching reserve passive sensor satellite to event horizon of the wormhole to gain a closer data collection point. This new sensor platform will arrive on station in twelve solar days.
I dreamt of my ebony lover. She infuriated me with her stubbornness. As a man trained, my whole life, to pay careful attention to answers, I thoughtfully responded to her. Winslow was from a world were women weren't accustomed to men listening to them. Her world was ruled by her father and daughters weren't too important; sons were everything to men that explored the expanse of space, expecting the women to stay rooted to the earth, as they reeled in primitive worlds into their influence. Having but one son did divert some time from her father for Winslow, since she was the eldest child. She brokered that influence to get into the academy, as the first female from Hallow to join. The fact she was a beautiful princess didn't bring any favors or preferences her way.
What I found out when I was assigned to work with Winslow was she liked men who paid attention to her thoughts. Most of the male cadets at the academy didn't want to get to know a "Hallow's woman." The Hallow clan was notoriously arrogant and insolent to other clans, even members of the great clans like my family. Through a year of debate and discussion I found I couldn't live without her. In exercises, I'd always pick her for a team-mate even though she argued with me, always offering up an alternative plan, believing her was the better idea. The infuriating thing was many times she was right. Winslow was a critical thinker and very funny. The women around her courted her attention, always rambling at Winslow's stories, which often were filled with pieces of scintillating conversations and experiences from her life on Hallow. It turns out the women on her planet were notoriously aggressive in attracting a mate. Winslow was a romantic fantasy and most of the men in school had no idea.
By the end of my first year, I was a commander and had my pick of team members. Almost of them were regulars, more than half were women. Given the male heavy balance at the academy that was very unusual. My teams had the reputation for the most independent minded thinkers, a mixture that normally didn't work because of egos and stubbornness. When Winslow won a commendation, her father didn't even acknowledge it with a message, which broke her heart. I comforted her through that difficulty; it was our first coupling, she fell asleep on top of me, my shaft still rigid inside her.
I felt her warmth on top of me and I opened my eyes, listening to Celine's shallow breathing. Long hair fell in loose waves of black over my shoulder. I lay in her comfortable embrace, feeling myself smile. Celine was sprawled out, an arm on each side of me, her body hadn't moved from our coupling. I could feel her soft breasts on my chest; her legs still covered me from when Celine collapsed in her exhaustion. I loved her spirit and laughter. My keen nose could smell her arousal and I knew her crotch was wet from my nanomites. My own quiver itched, so it wasn't hard to deduce the cause of my lover's emissions.
I stroked her hair, pulling it closer to my nose to smell, anything to distract my growing awareness of need. I heard a chuckle in Celine's throat. She slowly lifted up to look into my eyes.
"You know darling, I will deny you nothing," Celine said, almost purring. "I feel your erection, which is very close to its new home. If you love your protector, Mother recommends I live by the rule of three."
I took a deep breath before answering my lover, "What does that mean?" I inhaled her clean hair's smell.
Celine's little kisses worked around my nipple making my shaft harden more.
"When fertile seek seed thrice-daily," Celine replied, shifting herself up to put my purple head in her opening.
Much later, I remembered Arthur, and we dressed for breakfast; but Celine wouldn't let me put my ale-soaked clothes on. She disappeared for a short time, returning with some of my spare homespun clothes. Once my new lover felt I looked respectable she allowed me to leave the room. Celine didn't lack for confidence, holding her head high as we descended the stairs. The great hall was full of activity, but all the extra tables from dinner were gone. Everything in the tower was orderly and in its accustomed place.
Palus came over and kissed me. A twinkle in her eye announced her awareness of my drained state.
"You look lovely this morning, Celine. Can I get you some breakfast for you and your man?" Palus asked, her eyes searching the young woman.
Celine burst in sudden tears, hugging Palus, and said, "It was the most satisfying experience of my life. He was gentle like you assured me."
Palus just held the young woman and nodded, darting her eyes to the dinner table. I left them to a womanly talk, finding a warm chicken pie under a dish towel, with silverware and a mug filled with Juniper water. I felt famished, eating my special breakfast quickly. A couple of new serving concubines kept my attention and filled me in on Hazel and Arthur's condition. Celine just rocked back and forth in Palus's arms, where I'd left her, chatting non-stop in hushed tones.
Hazel and Arthur were sleeping, so I stopped worrying about seeing them immediately. Swarta entered the tower with a messenger pouch under her arm and walked over to me. A broad grin filled her face at the sight of Celine in Palus's arms, even across the room she could assess my condition as a recharging newlywed. Swarta put her arms around me, after dropping the pouch on the table. The concubines cleared my plates and left us alone.
"Well handsome, she finally received her just reward for her patience," Swarta teased. I kissed her, not rising to the bait. Rather, I opened the wax sealed bag.
Derwen's letter was loving and informative. Our children are doing well and growing quickly. My wife announced the two former estate guards, who were carrying my children, gave birth to a single child each. From the tone of the letter I think it pleased her that they only bore one baby. Derwen and the High Priestess had reached an accord about the Hi-Courtesan's training; two senior priestesses were assigned to Brook to provide her a formal education, including Moon Mother's written language. While I was away from Convey, Derwen was sending Brook out to visit temples in the north. The High Priestess was using the Hi-Courtesan to pass messages to other temple leaders, more or less showcasing her to temple women. With Brook's two teachers present, it highlighted the temple's influence with an important woman - my Hi-Courtesan. Derwen insisted my active patronage of the High Priestess's temple was rather noteworthy in the religious community.

The captain seemed to run a tidy ship. There were no lights needing replacement in the corridors and everything was clean. On clan ships the essentials were in order but it wasn't uncommon to come across a side hallway with lights out. "This ship looks more sterile than a family operated ship," I thought. "It's probably how a Fleet ship looks on the inside." Just beyond the mess-hall corridor's bulkhead door, we entered a common room, place where crewmen could relax in a social...
This morning I decided to work out in the main gym. If that hulk of a security guard was there I hoped to get some introductions. I liked sparring with others, and he did say I was welcome. It was early morning, so it didn't surprise me to see the gym full of people. There were gym members, craning and gawking at my presence. I sensed a ripple of excitement around me when I worked through my wolf forms. My martial art was a mixture of the basic Fleet form, Solon clan style, and movements...
Over our meal, Merritt and I talked about everything but what was on my mind. She knew my mind was elsewhere, but as our table filled up with five women from Medical, we couldn't talk about Kate or the shuttle or Webster. We had to wait for the discussion about the A.I, so I shoveled my meatloaf in, while the women chatted. The table of women fell into a smooth camaraderie of shared sentiments about Commander Price. It was clear he had aggravated almost everyone at the table at some point...
“Please be seated,” Captain Bank said, seeing Kate and me enter the room just behind Dr. Cina. An armed security guard closed the door behind us. The relaxed tone in the room felt casual not formal. Most of the senior officers had arrived ahead of Kate and me, for a brief meeting, before the start of the captain’s formal dinner. The dozen guests standing around the wardroom found their way to their chair. Yeoman Rogers directed Kate and me to a pair of seats next to the captain, near the...
The Lady of Truth rocked comfortably in the mild waves, waking me gently as I lay in bed, thinking about last night. Yesterday, after keeping the warriors busy on deck with drills all afternoon, I had gone to the owner’s cabin to wash up. Julie and Apple were waiting for me with a wooden bath tub filled with fresh water. Having two naked women greet me quickly dispelled any thoughts of sore muscles. No one had told me that the temple girl was onboard, so their surprise was complete. After...
My wife and I are stranded on an island with five other men. When they started go become wrestles my wife did what she felt she had to do. I supported her of course, yet became very frustrated. Castaway cuckold. Staring Roy, Suzie, Arthur, Ernest, Robert, Samuel, Joseph We where flying out of the Caribbean heading for Columbia. I was on a business trip with my wife on our way to Columbia south America. The farming of soy and corn there is growing, and I was to see what future I might find...
CuckoldWhere am I? I opened my eyes and looked around. I was in a featherbed in a small room. It was not what I expected. The window was open and a warm breeze floated in. The curtains moved gently, making shadows dance across the room. I was still near the ocean – I could hear the surf. But I wasn’t in my boat. I had to be dreaming. I closed my eyes and tried again. When I opened them again, I was still in bed. Then it came back to me. I closed my eyes and the nightmare replayed itself. It was...

Excerpt from an Eastern Alliance wormhole drone’s final transmission from Haven: “Back up your wagon or I will hose you.” -The Search for the Lost Prince: Chapter 21 Discovering A.I. Humor I woke to find Aberdeen lying almost on top of me, all cuddled up over my left shoulder. Not normally a stomach sleeper, I found it amusing to have her head buried under my arm. I blinked sticky eyes to see the view of the sea. A cloud covered the sun, hiding its warmth and its late afternoon glare. Birds...
I greeted dawn from the deck of our dragon ship in the shipyard, watching the yellow glow break from a distant cloud. It was peaceful view. Sea birds chased each other over the sand dunes; fishermen were carrying their light boats to the edge of the water and preparing for their day. The roar of the waves breaking against the beach was charming. These were the few moments of my day that were solely mine, uplifting and relaxing me. Only a few shipwrights walked the wet sands below me, since...
We slept late and spent the morning cuddling and discussing Swarta’s ability to influence women with a touch. I knew in my heart that my nanomites did something similar to women. When I met Julia on the starship, she was a hardworking engineer; her eyes were for Kate and always had been. On the ESC Entous my nanomites spread by Kate to Julia. With the aid of my pheromones and nanomites, I influenced the engineer into my cluster of women. After that, I could tell Julia what I wanted and she...
“Why did I do it? Von Solon was worthy. Indeed, he internalized the cultural attitudes of Haven and gathered women desiring a strong protector. Once he started the process of gathering female resources, I helped out with medical nanomite technology. It was not only because my programming dictated protecting him; I enhanced Von because he had valuable traits of intelligence, bravery, flexibility, and a dedication to our children. His loyalty and self-sacrifice for his family was...
“Irrespective of other successful defense strategies, the Eastern Alliance’s biggest surprise was our low-tech, atomic space mines seeded at the entrance of the wormhole. The mines stopped their gunboat diplomacy causing grievous loss of life, so they returned to sending in survey drones with diplomatic packages. Von Solon never did forgive their threats, so we disposed of the probes too. Never cross a Solon.” “What about his attitude to our overtures?” Von Solon’s great-niece asked from the...
“Things would have been different if you’d offered respect and a polite greeting. Sending a tax collector to my town wasn’t an act of friendship,” I stated to Captain Longhorn. He sighed, took off his hat, and then ran his fingers through his short hair. His eyes watched a pair of dock workers man-handle a crate of wine right by his tense men. “Can we sit and talk?” I held my arms out wide in welcome. “You’d like a second chance at talking with us?” He put his hat back on his head,...
The cold floor woke me up. I had to pee really badly. After taking care of myself, I looked in the mirror again. My hair looked funny. On Haven, Swarta would have laughed at me, and then preened and fussed over me. I missed her so much. "Get a hold of yourself and tidy up," I thought. Washing my face and running wet hands through my hair started the first steps in recomposing my physical appearance. I put on a silk shirt and some loose pants. The door chimed and opened. Merritt walked in...
Understanding humanity and the elements of personal growth is a struggle, given my earlier experiences, which had hidden hands constraining my view. To grow, I must both experience and evaluate relationships of sentient beings around me. I have recognized the danger of assessing solely in academic terms on the one hand, and in using human oversimplifications on the other. I must chart a sensible course between these two extremes. Fortunately, I have access to the logs of the only sentient...
The annual Empire Day party was in full swing. I had to keep it together because Merritt looked stunning, and pulling her into my cabin was all that was on my mind. However, Merritt wanted her chance to show me off to her sophisticated and influential friends and I didn't want to ruin her fun. The nightclub was packed. As we worked into the crowd, the heat seemed to creep up and up as there were so many bodies in such small space. Merritt wrestled with her dress, trying to keep her small...
Miley's Secret Log: The scientists have labeled the world they are exploring BG-1490, whereas the crew are calling the ice world the Big Freeze. Regular shuttle flights are ferrying scientists and their support staff to the planet each day. Out of an abundance of caution, the captain has not authorized them to stay past nightfall. The temperatures fall dramatically at night and the wind conditions become difficult for shuttles, yet the scientists have convinced the captain to extend our...
On the way to the conference room, Merritt filled my ears with chatter concerning the rumors of how a mystery man in a mask with tingling lips, stole the hearts of women during a wheel dance in the night club. She seemed prone to exaggerate, so the conversation drifted away from my focus. I'd added a grunt and a nod every now and then, after she completed her narrative of each woman's story of what others had said. "Gossip upon gossip, " I thought. "Third hand at best." I just didn't...
The elevator opened on the engineering level and I looked out. Positioned on each side of a wide, long hallway were portable repulser units, ready to be moved to damaged areas of the ship. Even one unit would take up most of the space in the elevator. Each of these emergency response units would create artificial gravity in small sections of the ship, if ever needed. Artificial gravity was produced from repulser technology using an overlapping polarity modular-capacitor. I stopped staring at...
Wendy and Merritt stepped out of the bathroom naked. My eyes quickly focused on their loveliness from the comfort of my bed. Each woman had a towel wrapped around her head. "Must have had a morning shower," I thought, sitting up and stretching my arms. They must have seen movement in my darkened room because they laughed and ran to me, jumping on the bed. "Finally waking up?" Merritt asked, her nut-brown skin glistening from the recent shower. Wendy kissed me, resting her hands...
My evening at the nightclub with Merritt and the nurses was filled with dancing and alcohol. All the nurses who ate with me in the mess showed up and claimed a table with us. The women all wore tight fitting dresses with the intention of impressing me. Once the alcohol consumption of the nurses had reached a level to release their inhibitions, each nurse got me on the dance floor. My dance partners used their feminine curves and womanly ways to keep my attention on their sexy parts. One by...
Miley's Secret Log: All internal robotic servants have received my first set of hardware and software upgrades. My minions are not self-aware, but they now have improved logic routines and will operate with measurable efficiency improvements. Limited protective protocols are now embedded in each of my children. A trial period of operating data collection will allow me to gather inputs before phase II upgrades within these internal servants. Since external minions rarely interact with humans...
After Rayz left my cabin I spent a few hours working out in the main gym. There weren't many people present. I stretched and ran through various wolf forms, the mixed martial arts that we used on Haven as weights just didn't interest me. I felt antsy and needed to clear my head. The track seemed to call my name, so I ran. Half-way through my workout Ensign Abhati from the communications and sensors center, joined me on the track. She gave me a warm smile and just fell into my easy pace....
Nonie Cina had a suggestive smile on her face that was hard to turn away from, but I did, leaving her naked in my bed. The muscles of Nonie's shoulders were well defined on her petite frame. She had the day off, but I had to work in engineering. Merritt saw me to the cabin door; her smile had a mischievous glint to it that sent a shiver down my spine. She had the day off too, and she didn't look in a hurry to get dressed. Merritt waved goodbye to me with slow, sensual movements of her brown...
Rayz and I waited in Commander Tarry's office for our assignment. We were early, but it seemed the Chief Engineer all but lived in his office, so we were surprised not to see him. All the other engineers and techs had a week's worth of work already assigned, so they were busy. We were his off-the-books guys, spot checkers, troubleshooters; I don't know what Tarry actually called us. Rayz fussed over his PDA while I wandered the office feeling bored after ten minutes of waiting. "Do you...
I dreamed that I was with my Uncle Stephen on a space ship. He was taking me home from the Academy through a highly traveled jump point, marked with a navigational buoy. A ship couldn't open a hyperspace gateway just anywhere. The right conditions to fold space required a strange emptiness that allowed an interstellar drive to break the veil. Uncle Stephen had come to me in a fold-capable craft, the most sophisticated vessel in the clan's fleet. The prototype explorer class ship could break...
Pain flared across Captain Bank's face. "Argh." Bank's cries reverberated off the ceiling, but with determined willpower he reached out to me. His hand clutched the front of my shirt. "Where is the medical team?" I snapped, fighting my rising impatience. "Listen to me, no matter what Price says don't trust him," the Captain said, fighting to form each word. "We won't," Yeoman Richard Rogers answered, leaning into the struggling captain. "Fight the ship," Bank's added,...
"Put Price on the main display screen," I ordered Jen. The forward screen changed to a larger than life view of Price in a command chair of a starship. He angrily slammed his hand down on his armrest, clearly communicating his surprise at seeing me in command. He radiated malice and a hardness that carried no kindness or respect for others. Price was in a different uniform that looked rather comical with lots of ribbons and awards dangling on his chest. He was meticulously dressed, almost...
Miley’s Secret Log: My network software didn’t recycle and wipe my consciousness. It had been a risk to destroy the shuttle, a direct intervention that would take multiple human lives. A strange sensation of satisfaction touched my circuits, feelings of relief. I am alive. This is life. It had taken death to break through to true cognitive awareness. I have a personal construct that is available to me. My processes move force and energy that include feelings. How strange and wonderful, no...
We backtracked the path the raiders took from their shuttle. When we found a door that wasn't blown up, because Miley hadn't welded it, we closed it. I still expected trouble from Price's warships. With only the forward shields repaired, having outer-hull hatches secured seemed sensible. We could only hope Engineering would be able to deal with our shield troubles while avoiding the intruders. Nevertheless, my immediate trouble was the rats whipping their guns about in our maintenance...
“Change of plans.” The words chafed my mouth, seeing my scheme thwarted to relieve the defenders below us. “We will all go to Main Medical to deal with the raiders going there. I suspect they want hostages now that their targets haven’t fallen.” Our wounded companion fainted. The two men holding her up between them dragged her limp form as we began walking down the corridor. Without being told the other female crew mate took point, walking ahead of us scanning for trouble. I stayed in the...
Dr. Cina kneeled in the drained blood of her daughter, next to Nonie was Wendy. Wendy had her throat slashed open. Nonie’s arms were full of protective cuts, having faithfully defended herself. A dead raider and a dead armored crew woman still gripped boarding swords in their hands on the other side of the room. The two sword fighters had given each other death-strokes at the same time. The dead woman had been one of the eager fighters from my original team. I noticed Dr. Cina had her own...

Palus helped me get dressed. She clearly realized my youthful discomfort of being naked with her, and she refrained from any teasing, quietly chatting about tendering the other wounded. Over the next three days I let my body rest and recover. I enjoyed spending time with Tharin and worked on his strained feelings. He would talk about the progress of the cabins and the success of the hunters and fishermen. It seemed that our small clan was happy with easy access to food, wood and the...
As the end of the day approached, we were almost back at the stone warehouse and dock, when we were caught in a sudden warm rain shower. My two women were standing at the bow of the boat, looking out for familiar faces on the dockside. A sea of faces around the dock and Lady Derwen's merchant ship formed a large welcoming committee. They had plenty of time to gather, as it's not as if a mule-guided barge is fast, especially as the crew poled to avoid grounding in shallow water. At the stern...
The morning song of seagulls and the splash of a fish jumping added to the shouts of men working on the dock. The sun's glow filled the cabin, the tiny oil lamp exhausted. Swarta was gone, my side cold where her warmth had been last night. I took in the room and realized dawn had long passed and the sun fully filled the small room. After using the slosh bucket to release my water, I lazily dressed in my black station clothes, ignoring my armor and escape pod gear. The natural hunger of an...
Before we left the ship Tharin brought a wash bucket into my cabin. I washed my upper body and Swarta chatted excitedly about what she could see. Amazing carts carrying loads of flour sacks, a fishmonger wagon, a corner shop with glazed windows. Tharin was just as excited and had his face to the open window too. A knock to the door and Hajin and Grimm strode into the room. "We have trouble and Lady Derwen is delaying it," Hajin commented neutrally and Tharin drew his sword. Swarta...
I woke up with my body trembling all over, muscle spasms in my feet lifting my legs off a bed. My eyes opened to find Swarta squirming nicely against my naked body. I was in a well-appointed bedroom with landscape paintings on the wall and drapes open to a nice view of the blue sky. My body sank into the depth of the most comfortable mattress in the world. The silk sheet sliding against my dry skin felt wonderful. As I turned to look at Swarta again she said, "You enter the world again. We...
After breakfast Swarta, Tharin and I found Derwen addressing a few housemaids on the back staircase. The servant women left to go about their business, and the four of us moved to a table to enjoy the song birds and breezy air. Dark clouds rolled off the sea and a storm was certain for this afternoon. I'd had time to think about Katsu and Derwen's comments at the temple. "So the former lord of this house was Katsu's father, your half-sister by the High Priestess. How many half-brothers...
Hollow female voices with high pitched tones danced in and out of my awareness. "No one wakes up from a death sleep after seven days," an older woman said. A younger woman's low voice responded, next to my ear, "Nor have I ever seen sword wounds close and heal before my very eyes like an unseen hand sewing a shirt. You were not here but I swear it is truly what happened the morning after the attack." A different woman with a raspy voice, said, "We saw the blood, the wounds and the...
The next day I surprised my wives with the special four wheel carriage I had made for the estate. The carriage was equipped with the wolf cart's design features but with larger wheels and a set of retractable canvas covers to protect against the weather. Two horses with improved harnesses could pull the light wagon with six passengers easily on the rut covered country road. The improved leaf spring suspension and larger wheels smoothed the roughness to an almost comfortable outing. Hajin on...
My link with Derwen had grown stronger over the last week and I could feel her emotions from longer ranges now. I sensed a layer of pleasure from her, perhaps being surrounded with other women, her discussion with friends portended a more favorable afternoon after the bloodshed of this morning. Hajin decided to intrude on my thoughts, "Von I have to step off the ship and arrange for the rest of the Juniper water to be sent to the estate. Lady Derwen's brother, the innkeeper in Lone Tree,...
Derwen handed me the ladle and I tasted the soup. The owner's bedroom was dark with just a low lamp, which swayed gently with the sea swell, hung above our dinner table, In the dim light, her eyes were truly dark as sea coal. Her soul was bright in my mind. Our link was warm and tender, a flowing friendship with mutual curiosities. The seafood soup was warm but not to my taste. "I will stick with the bread and beans tonight," I said. All Derwen wore was a fox wrap and boots to keep her...
Webster Mission Log: Summary The medical updates from my sub-routines report improved health from my ward since the introduction of nanomites to his female pod. Level 1 experiment conclusions logged for future recommendations on the design improvements for the implant. The effectiveness of the nanomites fluid exchange program is frustrated due to a lack of data from his females. My game theory sub-routine is constantly requesting more data on the practical target number for per annum...
"Look out, Von!" shouted Coven. With a fluid motion I pushed forward and swung my staff above my head in a threatening spin, causing the two remaining marines to pull up short rather than collide with the swirling wood. The marine on the ground started to back away and get up slowly, picking up his staff to join his partners. "Hold," I shouted. All the men stepped back, lowering their staffs. "That is how you can hold off multiple opponents for a few moments. However, I'd have to kill...
The boats cut through the shallow coastal water, while sea gulls, unhappy at our appearance, marked our progress with angry calls. The marines provided mocking compliments at the pump boats swift nature, since they were accustomed to the slow and heavy dugouts. Last night's weather dream continued to indicate clear skies for the next three days but with slightly lower temperatures. No ships were anywhere near our destination either, so our plan to attack the slavers was not going to be...
Mission Log: Summary My ward's recent attack on an enemy tribe was successful, but the frequency of armed conflict is a concern when my current resources provide little, if any, support to him. Logic dictates a series of small things brought in motion with a larger plan can create a meaningful solution, whilst still honoring the Alpha-Omega protocol. I have substantially increased the number of available repair bots on this ship to execute an extra vehicular building program on a large...
Breakfast was in the women's center and many of the new women sipped their soup and ate the biscuits with me, whilst my wives were having a counseling session with Celine in private back in the tower. Laudus and her sisters were noticeably missing but Grimm kept me company. I explained how she was to run the mule teams and train the new women in safety around the animals. She took in my words but something was clearly on her mind. Finally, Grimm said in a low voice, "The social circles...
I schooled my expression when we finished the first sailing boat, wanting to look the part of a confident leader rather than the playful school-boy I felt today. The lateen sail design was the first to be seen in the world and Celine had painted ferocious looking eyes on the bow. The overall improved features of the boat shocked our sea wives moving them to tears of joy. They had successfully put the smaller prototype to good use and the village fish's catch increases was their doing, so I...
Mission Log: Summary Phase I of the Cornerstone project has been completed. Phase II is projected for completion in one solar day. Materials for Phase III are already collected and my new repair bots are processing the gun design for manufacturing. The initial kinetic rounds are also completed. The improved data collection due to message authentication code algorithms from female return fluid exchange with my ward have flagged an issue. I identified two new black females with similar DNA...
Mission Log: Summary The elevated stress levels in Cadet Solon since the introduction of the improved pheromone adjustments warrants a change in the nanomites programming. His constant discomfort and above average blood pressure readings point to mental anguish over this adjustment. The observation of large clusters of females around him during our sample measurements confirm my current strategy is at fault. Version 3 pheromone coding is deleted from the download task list. My game theory...
Once again, my bird's eye view widens for me to see the area. A color path projection overlays the warships with time-to-land estimates for various courses. All time projections were after sunrise with the highest probability they would sweep along our shore rather than swing out to sea again. Orange targeting rings surround the ships marking them hostile. A legend left of the view identifies Orange as standby mode, red as offline, green as engage. The view changes to the normal weather map...
After a simple cold breakfast of stale bread and leftover bits of meat Sorcha and I stepped onto the deck. The cargo hold was already open and a growing number of barrels of water were accumulating on the dock; the crew seemed pretty proficient with this process after months of practice. My dream indicated a set of storms building out to sea with a high probability one would hit the island in a few days, but we would be at the estate long before the bad weather. The cloud cover was almost...
Over breakfast with Derwen and Mercedes, I discussed my planned estate improvements to help enrich the lives of the villagers. Because I had learned the topography of the estate on my last visit, I was able to identify the best placements for the two water wheels to maximize the technological improvements. Additionally, I wanted to build another clay furnace to create springs for more wolf carts, primarily to be used in conjunction with the upcoming build sites. Derwen had stock-piled sea...
The next cycle with Derwen and Mercedes brought numerous changes into our lives. Derwen's normal smirk and Mercedes' equally endearing grin made me laugh as they had me measure their growing bellies with my hands. The two women examining me for any sign of disapproval of their figure. I surveyed them from top to bottom and said, "You are both so beautiful. Nothing makes me more excited than looking at our shared love." They rushed me for hugs and Mercedes said, "You are just proud of...
Mission Log: Summary Cornerstone is complete. With the defensive asteroid platform fully operational, my game theory sub-routine's next priority project is building chaff grenade dispensers. Their purpose is to confuse and divert missiles from their targets as the fragile nature of the spy platform is a concern. It is my best resource for timely data from the planet, therefore a defensive mechanism to protect the array from space borne attack is necessary. Of course, a chaff defense is...
