A Bride Worth Billions

by Morgan, Tiffany

  Etienne silently left the door ajar and Katherine couldn’t stop crying. She realized that she did the biggest mistake of her life by falling in love with someone who was devoid of love and every other kind of human emotion, for he was not a human at all!

  Katherine could sense the passage of each and every day, as she had a broken heart and everything in the whole wide universe was making her miss Etienne stronger than ever. Every morning, when she would get ready and she pressed her lips while applying lipstick, she would miss Etienne a lot. She wanted him to touch her. She wanted him to make her feel alive once again.

  She would see him every day, standing outside her home. He knew that she needed some space and would never come close enough. He would never speak anything to her, but would just keep standing at a distance, expecting Katherine to come talk to him again. He was ready to wait for her, even when it meant that he had to wait for an eternity.

  Days passed in the similar manner. Katherine would see him every morning when she would go for work and would watch him from the corner of her eyes, when she would get back to her home. There was a very strong part in her that was concerned for his well being too. In the middle of the night, she would often try to search for him, and every time, she would find him standing at the same place.

  She finally decided that it was time to break the ice. She couldn’t bear it any longer and asked Etienne to come inside the house, as she wanted to speak to her.

  “This cannot go on forever. You have to go back to your home. Please leave!” she insisted.

  “If you want me to leave and go back to Zahari, then I will leave, Katherine. But I need to express my feeling to you one last time. I know you might have thought that my expression for you was because of this stone!” he said and took the same piece of stone out from his pocket. Katherine didn’t say a word and wanted him to complete his sentence.

  “This stone means nothing to me, Katherine. You do! You are the love of my life and I can’t exist without you. I am in love with you and it has to do nothing with the stone. Trust me!” as he finished speaking, he pressed the stone tightly and it broke into some millions of pieces. The stone sparkled at its brightest tint right before it broke down and the fragments of it was scattered all over the room.

  Katherine couldn’t believe what she just saw. Etienne stood right in front of her, without any crystal, without any stone and his heart was still beating as passionately as ever.

  “How is this possible?” she questioned him, but already knew the answer.

  “Because I love you, Katherine!” Etienne softly uttered those words and kissed Katherine. Their bodies wanted the warmth of each other more than ever. Etienne did his magic and pressed his lips to Katherine’s tongue. They both could taste each other and their tongue wanted more. Etienne ripped Katherine’s red blouse apart and pressed her breasts tightly.

  He laid her down on the carpet and bit her stomach. He started to lick down under and threw her panties away. As his tongue touched the gap between her legs, she shivered.

  She was taken to a different dimension and wanted to stay there forever. Etienne pressed her breasts and played with her nipples until they were erected tightly.

  He pushed his tongue inside her genital and felt her deepest part with his touch. He pressed his finger and started making his way inside her. She was ready to embrace his presence inside her. She opened her mouth and he pressed his finger inside of her. She bit them a couple of times and the biting session soon converted to big moans, as he kept pushing hard inside her with his fingers.

  He wanted to take her to another level. Etienne wanted to embrace the highest level of affection on Katherine and was ready to penetrate her. He started pushing his genitals inside of her and she moaned harder this time, as he kept penetrating her.

  In no time, he hit the right spot. He touched the most sensitive spot of her body and she felt the most amazing kind of orgasm. He started to pace up and kept penetrating her. She was floating high and remained high at the peak of her orgasm. Etienne couldn’t stop any longer as well. They both came along at the same time and touched the highest peak of love that was attained by any other living being of the entire universe.

  As they both made love to each other, they saw a strong blinding light that came out of Etienne’s body and illuminated the entire space. That was his soul. He was ready to give it to Katherine.

  Katherine broke into tears as she witnessed the most magical moment of her life. The blinding light came closer to Katherine and she embraced it by accepting it with her hands. She closed her eyes and before she could realize, the light entered her body, becoming a part of her being.

  At that moment, she could feel it all. She could sense the kind of infinite affection that Etienne had for her. She could feel each and every fragment of his emotions and a tear rolled out of her eyes.

  “I love you so much!” she said and kissed him passionately, one more time. He kissed her back and looked at her beautiful eyes that radiated perfectly.

  It was just the start of their romantic journey. It was their happy ending.

  Etienne and Katherine created a world of their own. Etienne decided not to leave Earth, as he found everything that he was looking for in Katherine. She meant everything to him and he wasn’t required to look any further. She was his Zahari, his home.

  They got married in both human as well as Zaharian style. Katherine introduced him to her family and friends as her neighbor. For them, he was just like any other red head guy who was in love with Katherine. That was their secret and in no way, Katherine could tell even a single soul about Etienne.

  After Etienne gave Katherine her soul, while making love to her, Katherine realized that she was expecting his child. They were already in love and decided to marry, so that they could make it official for the rest of the world. They had a beautiful baby girl whom they named Nadia, which mean “the beloved” in the Zaharian language.

  It was just like any other day for Katherine. She was trying to make chicken soup for the family, when she felt dizzy. She called for Etienne, who came running from the next room. It didn’t take him long to realize why Katherine was feeling no nauseous.

  He touched her belly and felt a moment. “Did you miss your cycle?” he asked.

  It was enough for Katherine to realize that she was expecting. She could feel something cosmic moving inside of her. No rule of science or human religion could explain it. It was just true love.

  Etienne helped her and took her to the bedroom where she lay comfortably. He sang her a beautiful Zahari lullaby and watched her sleep. He looked at the dark blue skyline and realized that there was nowhere in the entire universe where he would rather be. He was with Katherine, who was the love of his life. He would hear Nadia’s voice coming from the living room. He was complete. He was exactly where he belonged. He was home.

  ALIEN’S RETURN

  We are born, we live and then we die – in between, we make a lot of mistakes, we make a lot of right choices. We make people cry, we make them remember us even after our death. We leave a mark on this universe by how we make love to our soul mates. Ever since the conception of time, humans have been cynical about almost everything in this world. Let alone world, we have questioned everything in the universe, right from its conception to its end, everything has been talked about so much.

  There is an African tribe who believe that we humans are a part of a mythical race that came somewhere from the stars. The Earth was originally the home of Mother Nature and all her beautiful creatures – it had a diverse pool of animals and plants, the flora and fauna that comprised the whole of land, oceans and everything in between. Then we, humans invaded the world and started our revolution. We came somewhere far from the stars, made Earth our new home and started exploiting the resources of the Mother Earth.

  We started believing that Earth has always been our home, as we have been living here from
so long. But deep down, we all are made up of stars. We have alien blood and a soul that takes us back to the outer space. We call anything that we can’t understand “strange”. Anything which our science can’t comprehend, we either blame it on religion or overlook the fact. There are also people who think of outer space. We try hard to communicate to the people of other planets, who exists somewhere in the universe. We often overlook the simple fact that the people from outer space with whom we are trying to communicate could be our ancestors.

  Carter was oblivious. He didn’t know the simple fact that he, unlike every other human of our planet, was originally from the outer space. He was found by an average American couple when he was a little kid. It was a night full of stars when John and Charlotte were driving back home. They saw a newborn child, who was only a few months old lying in the middle of the street. The couple who was trying hard to conceive found a blessing in disguise as they saw the child. He didn’t have any birthmarks, no lost identification – nothing at all.

  “We are keeping him. It’s not a question. We are keeping him, John!” Charlotte said and she held Carter close to her arms and hugged him tightly. Carter looked at her with his crystal blue eyes and touched her nose. The moment Charlotte touched Carter; she realized that he was different. For a moment, it felt like the mere passage of time stopped. Everything was standstill and Charlotte stared at John with her wide opened eyes.

  “He is not one of us,” as she said, they realized that keeping Carter would be a tough decision. They were right.

  In spite of knowing the fact that Carter was different, they decided to keep him. He was their child, maybe not by birth, but certainly by choice.

  As Carter grew old, he too realized that he was different. He was not like any other kids of his age. He could run and walk faster, way too fast than anyone else. He would read any book just once and can memorize in one go. He had a tremendous IQ which was miles away from everyone else. His physical strength, his mental abilities – everything was way ahead from everyone else. He could go on for days without eating a thing. He could hold his breath for minutes, sometimes even hours. He didn’t know what sleep was, and could go on for months without closing his eyes.

  When he was a kid, he would ask John and Charlotte numerous times why he was so unique. They would spare some or other kind of lie to him, but the older he got, the harder it became for them to keep his away from the truth. On his eighteenth birthday, there was just one thing that he wanted from his parents.

  “You both know that it is time. I am an adult now and I need to know the truth. Please, it won’t change a thing to me – you both will always be my parents, but I need to know the truth,” Carter pleaded as he cut the cake and asked a simple explanation from his parents. Although, both John and Charlotte realized that the explanation would not be that simple at all.

  They told him everything about his existence, whatever was known to them. But none of their explanations was enough for him, as it left him wanting more. He realized that he was from outer space but had no idea about anything else. He wanted to know about his origin, his existence, and his biological parents.

  Yes, John and Charlotte were still his parents and he loved them immensely, but there was a part of him that craved for something more. Every night, he would look at the stars, just in a hope to get some answers. But the dark clouds would leave him with no absolution, every single night. He had nowhere else to go. He couldn’t find anyone to give him concrete answers. He was all alone in the world that has billions of people.

  Days turned to nights and Carter didn’t realize how those insomniac nights turned to years. He grew older, but with time his craving to get all those answers also increased. He turned out to be a perfectly fine man, with immense physical and mental capabilities that were far beyond the comprehension of anyone else in the world. He knew that he was different and tried not to expose his powers to anyone, for he knew that Earth is a strange place and won’t accept him the way he was.

  In the meanwhile, he decided to enjoy what he had. The respect for his parents increased drastically and their well-being became his highest priority. After finishing school, he decided to stay with his parents and would help them in keeping the farm well-maintained. He was happy in his own little world, and Charlotte was happy to see a part of the whole wide universe in front of her eyes every day. That was all that she wanted.

  It was just like every other night for Carter. He was done with his regular chores of the day and all three of them had a great winter supper. After having his dinner, Carted decided to walk a little and headed towards the infinite fields. The fresh cold and winter breeze brushed through his dark brown hair and he closed his blue eyes to take the moment in. He inhaled the fresh air and wished upon a falling star.

  He didn’t realize that his wishes would be fulfilled in a matter of just a few seconds. He heard a peculiar sound that came somewhere from the universe and a bright flash of light followed the crash. He thought that it was thunder, but his assumption was soon shattered when he saw a strange spacecraft approaching towards him from the distant sky.

  The sky changed its color, as the strange machine reflected different colors on the monochromatic sky and the stars shined brightly in luminous orange and green hues. Carter couldn’t figure out what was happening. The human in him wanted to step back and go back home, but he also knew that he wasn’t human at all. He wanted to know who was behind the spacecraft and took a few steps towards it, as it landed on their farm.

  For a moment, Carter couldn’t keep his eyes open. The wide illumination that was coming from the ship made everything extremely bright. The next moment, everything got changed and it was darkness in all the fields. The wind kept blowing and the lush green fields played a hauntingly beautiful symphony. The gates of the ship were opened and a blue-tinted light came from the inside.

  There was something inside the ship which attracted Carter. He just knew that the ship had the answers of his questions and wanted to visit it once, even if a part of him knew that it would be a disastrous move. He thought that he would be greeted by someone, an alien or a living being from the outer space would welcome him. He thought that he would meet someone from his home planet, but he was wrong.

  As he walked inside the ship, the gates were locked again. Carter knew that it was coming and that it would be a kind of an unwanted abduction. But he didn’t have anything against them – there was a part of him that wanted to go to outer space, for he would find his answers in the deep wide universe.

  The spaceship escalated from the surface and with a lightning fast speed disappeared from Earth into the universe. Carter could feel the change in the atmosphere – the air was thick and he was finding it hard to even breathe. After a few minutes, the ship stopped moving and entered another huge ship which was floating somewhere in the universe. Carter had no idea what was happening around him. He was entering a whole new world and was oblivious of almost everything.

  The blue light illuminated the entire space and the doors were opened again. Carter stepped out of the small ship and walked towards the large open space that was wide open and covered in light blue color. There was no one in the entire spaceship, or so he thought. The technology was highly advanced, and for the first time in his life Carter felt like an alien in an unknown space. There was a huge metallic gate that was crafted of mysterious metal or alloy that was not known to Carter. There were people on the other side of the gate, as Carter could hear their voices and see the amalgamation of light coming from the opposite direction. In spite of his numerous attempts, he was not able to open the door. He pressed the door one last time before giving up, and to his surprise it was wide open.

  He looked at the group of people who were standing in front of him. They didn’t look surprised at all – as if they were already waiting for his arrival. Carter was still finding it hard to breathe and couldn’t adjust with the sudden change in the environment.

  “Welcome, N-82! We were waiting
for your arrival!” a woman who had dark blue eyes said while walking towards Carter. She had dark black hair and was wearing a blue gown. Her hair was decorated with lights that were emitting flashes on every side of the room. Carter had a quick look at the room.

  There were too many people who looked alike and it was surreal in every way. He needed time to make an adjustment to his new surroundings, but it felt like people in that land already knew about his arrival. It was all a part of a big plan to him. As he kept scanning his way through the crowd, he finally saw himself standing face to face with a really strange guy.

  He was taken aback at how similar the stranger looked. His eyes were the same shade of blue as his and he almost looked like him, except maybe, he was taller and had dressed differently. Carter tried touching his face in amazement and the moment his fingers touched his face, a machine emitted a loud sound and the crowd erupted, “matched. The real N-82 is here.”

  Carter couldn’t quite understand what was happening. The almost stranger smiled at him and signaled him to follow him. He took him to an empty room that had jet black walls. There was a different energy in the room as it seemed to block all thoughts and made the mind pretty hollow from inside.

  “Welcome, Carter. This is Xorosa, our very own planet. You’re a part of us. Unlike humans, we are extra intelligent species who have evolved a lot quicker than them. However, they have genes which our species lack and if we can procure them, our race could evolve even further. You’re a part of this mission and you have been chosen to be the next heir for this race.

  I know you might be wondering as to why you have been picked and there may be a lot more questions, but to start with a few facts, you’re my son. I had slept with a human when I had gone to earth for the mission of invading it. She had ended up being pregnant and when she knew of my plan, she ran away. None of our advanced technology helped that time and we have been trying to spot you ever since. It wasn’t until few months back, that we spotted you. Now that you are here, it is upon you to take this project further. We have abducted a human from the same planet. As you’re half-blood, it is only your progeny who can help in infusing the human genome in our race. For our invasion to be complete, you will need to do this.”
