Chapter 11:

When we arrived home, we walked upstairs in silence. Holding each others hands. When we got inside, it was a little to quiet, so I turned the T.V. on. I sat down, and noticed I had tension in my shoulders. I started to rub them, until Max walked over and sat on the sofa next to me. He patted the floor in front of him. "Sit here, I can make your shoulders feel better."

I sat, and moved my hair out of the way. He placed his hands on my shoulders, and I felt heat travel everywhere his hands went. I know he had strong hands, but he could really give a great massage. I lowered my head in ecstacy. All time fell away while he had his hands on me. Then, all of a sudden, I had this rush of emotion. It was like I was being thrown threw a dream that felt so real. Then all of these images started to flow threw my head. They were all of Max, when he was younger.

One was Max holding a pigeon then letting it go. I felt that the bird was hurt, but max helped it. It was like remembering a memory threw his eyes.

Max and his sister playing in the sand, making a weird symbol in the sand. It looked to be Native American.

Then Max, his sister, and 2 other people standing in a strange cave watching this picture of a beautiful women talking to them. I think it was his real mother.

Then it was Max watching me at the party. I could see the way he saw me, and to him... I was beautiful. I have never felt like that before. To think that Max loves me as much as I love him.

Then it was the first time we were together, and the love that he had for me even that first time.

And max talking to his sister, and hearing her say "She is you future wife... but you have to be careful."

Then I was brought back to reality. I opened my eyes to find that Max had stopped massaging my shoulders. I turned around and saw him looking at me. He held his hand up, stopping me from saying anything, and started to talk.

"I know what just happened, and there is something that I have to tell you. I should keep this to my self, but I love you to much not to tell you. What you just saw was bits and pieces of my life. I saw bits and pieces of your life ... I , well, me and Isabelle... are hybrid aliens. We are part alien, part human. I know this is way to much for you to understand now, but it is true. And I know you may not like this, and you really didn't have a choice, but the 2nd time we make love, that is what started you body to change. You will soon be part alien, so that we could have children. Me, Isabelle, Michael, and Tess are aliens. We were made on another planet, put in incubation pods, then sent to Earth. There were 2 sets, but the other set wasn't as strong as we are, and were killed off. The 4 of us got a message from our mother, that said that I would be the first to find my destined wife. I would know who it is by the love within. And that is how I know it is you. It is either fate, or luck that we are arranged to be married by our parents. She also said, that our enemies will come to earth to kill us, but that my future child will be able to help us fight them off. Our future child will be the most powerful alien to ever be made. She or he will rule my planet, and make it a great empire. Now, as we speak, it is being ruled my someone that doesn't know what they are doing. He is putting the plant in jeopardy. When all four of us finds out soul mates, we will all go back home. Then I can rule the plant, and make it what it used to be. I know this is all overwhelming to you, but you have to believe me, and have faith in our love. I love you so much, and I will never hurt you, and I will protect you with my life. UM, do you have any questions?"

I sat there with my mouth open. He was an alien. I was going to be an alien soon. My child will be the most powerful alien ever. It's a dream, I fell asleep in the car, and this is a dream.

I looked into Max's eyes, and saw all the love he had for me, and all the fear that he thinks I am going to run away from who he really is. It feels to real to be a dream. What do people say... that if you think it is a dream... then its not a dream. Or was it the other way around. I had to find out... "Are you serious?"

"Yes. I know you are probably going to freak out now, and run away screaming. You are my soul mate, we both know that. Inside." He said that as he touched my chest. I slightly flinched... he noticed, and I wished that I could take it back. I saw the hurt in his eyes, and I wanted him to know that I was not going to run away from him. I still love him...even if he was different. WOW. He was really different. How can I be okay with something like this. But I am. Deep inside of me there was something that always told me I would be slightly different than other people. I first thought it was the money and the fame our family had... but now I know it is more then that. It is the man I am going to marry that makes me different. And loving him will change me also.

I touched his face. "I am glad that you told me. I need to know... I won't leave you, so you don't have to worry about that. I know how much you love me, and I think you know how much I love you. So, I will be an alien soon. Is there any tips you may want to give me?"

"You aren't mad?" there was a pause, then his face started to lose the sadness in his eyes, and the real Max started to return to me. "That's good. Isabelle thought that you would freak, and run away screaming. She wanted me to wait till we were on our honeymoon to tell you. Then we would be married, and you really couldn't run far. On my planet, when a man and women get married, they develop a 6th sense for the other person. If they concentrate on them, they can talk to them, and even know where they are threw there minds. But really it starts when they fall in love. On my planet and man in women get married for love. Everyone on my planet are equals, and they don't marry for convenience or money. Even thought Kivar is changing that, which is really bad, but that is a different story. Oh, and if you haven't figured it out yet, I am a king. If I were to return now, I would rule the country. There was a war there about 57 years ago, and I was killed, but they took my essence and... cloned me. I was the king, Isabelle was the princess, Michael was my 2nd in command, and Tess was my wife on that planet. But Tess and I date for about a month, then I broke it off. She is not the type of person that I like. She is to much into material things. Now, she is always mad at me, But I deal with it. Oh, and they will be here tomorrow afternoon. We all decided that we should be together. My real mother said that once I found my wife, then it will start a chain reaction, and I have to keep my eyes open... I know you are probably scared about our enemies coming, but I will protect you. Oh, and I have the power to heal people."

"WOW, this is really new to me. So. Take it a little slow here cowboy. You get married for love. Then you really didn't want that arranged marriage."

"Yeah. My mother called me and told me. That was at the library, that was why I was kind of mad when you first saw me. I thought that I would just have to meet her, then tell my parents that I was not going to go threw with the marriage, and leave it at that. But it was you. And that was the best thing to happen to me."

"Okay. And you are a king? So, when we get married. That would make me the Queen? Of a whole planet?"

"Yes. I know it is overwhelming, but there is nothing you have to do. Just have the planet fell like there is someone there that they can relate to, and knows that would run the country better then Kivar is doing. And that is not a hard task. He is ruining my planet, but I will fix it when we return. Which is probably 5-10 years from now. So, it is not like we are leaving tomorrow."

"What do you mean heal people. Like if they get cut or something?"

"Yeah, but I can also heal them if they are shot, or bleeding to death."

"Are... you... um, going to use your power to save people when you become a doctor?"

"No, I like saving people, and if I use my power to much, there will be questions, and then the FBI will find me again, and I don't want that."

"You were in trouble with the FBI once?" I asked, it seemed to be so scary to be in trouble with the FBI , I didn't know anything about what he was gone threw.

"Yeah, but I think that is enough questions for tonight. Maybe you should get some sleep... I can... um, sleep on the sofa tonight. You know.. It you are a little scarred."

"Why would you do that?" I asked. Even though he was an alien, that didn't mean I didn't want to make up next to him, or for us to not make love anymore. I am already heading down the alien road, and I can't get any worse. So, what do I have to loose. I know that if I become an alien, I won't turn green, and grow antenna, so I have nothing to worry about. And I can't stay away from him all night. I feel this pull toward him, that I can't explain. Maybe we are soul mates.

"I just thought that you would want some space, but if you don't need space... yeah, we are soul mates." he said.

"What, how did you know... can you read my mind already?"

"Yeah, I have been able to hear you for a while now, I just couldn't tell you. Are you mad about that?"

"Well, you tell me?" I asked him. He can read my mind.

"Oh, I probably shouldn't do it anymore. It can lead our enemies to us. But your not mad at me, actually... Liz... stop thinking about me that way. You are turning me on."

Wow, he was good. I was actually thinking about us, last night, how great he was. I just had to smile when I saw him blushing at what I was thinking about. "Sorry, I will stop. But I am really tired." I put my hands on his legs, and started to move them up, "I think we should go to bed." and when I finish my hands were almost all the way up to his crouch. He put his hands on mine to stop them.

He looked into my eyes and said "I think going to bed is a great idea." he grinned, and I smiled.

We spent another hour in each other's arms, going to the brink, and falling down together. I fell asleep in his arms, and was so glad that I had found him.
