.I just know...the Crosier got us together in the first place, and I have this feeling it will again, I just don't know how to find it. After Qir..." ...he lady lowered her head, "I'm...I'm glad for the company that you and Cherise give me..." And Cherise for a long time." Well, yes, I'm glad I found her family line again after that shipwreck. I was amazed someone survived on that island for two years. I heard of it, and sent for her, and her family has served me for generations. And then you.... That ... rapist whipped out his Rod of Chastisement and ... used it on me."Bob stuck his two bits in, "Be sure to tell them why. The Rod of Chastisement is used only when needed, not on a mere whim."

Of course, he'd never do anything similar. I smacked his arm to remind him of his place."And? Obviously you survived. How was it?" You felt. .and came damn close to shooting off! But I bit my lower lip, took a deep breath, and shook myself. I had to get a grip on myself.By now the situation was getting to me, and I was really hot. Here was this mature woman, a beautiful nicely-curved woman, completely naked and stretched out helplessly before me. And I could do anything I wanted with her! And the most she could do was bitch about it. She couldn't tell anyone. Just like I couldn't. As she warned me more than once: this had to be our. We have our fighters and we have been cleared for flight duty. We just wanted to let you know we love you, and we'll do anything to keep this ship, you and your family safe. The Crytherians must pay for their crimes and the four horsemen are going to deliver it."Ken sat back down in his chair as he looked at Tina."Tina, please don't do this. I've already lost your parents. I don't think I could handle losing you. I think of you like my sister." I know, Sir, and your sister is second of command.
