Andromeda Rising: Chapter Three

Chapter Three:  Within Temptation

“Don’t eat any more of that,” Jack said as Andromeda tucked into the dessert.

“Why not? It’s marvelous,” she said, bringing her spoon up to her own mouth and savoring the delicious chocolate concoction. “Can’t think of anything better to do right now than eating it. Go on, Jack. Have some more.”

He bit his lip hard trying not to be drawn by the young woman across from him or the addictive dessert in front of him. Unable to stop himself he took a few spoonfuls more and instantly knew that he had to get away from the table before he completely lost his self-control or he was going to be doing something about the aphrodisiac qualities of the dessert.

Story Updates and Life Stuff

Well, it rained today so our plans to fix the fence fell through. *sighs*  Not that I felt well enough to do it anyway, though I am feeling a lot better, so it was no big loss to me.  We can't do it tomorrow as we're driving down to the kids' summer camp so I can find it without DH since he won't be home the week they go.  I am so looking forward to having a week to myself with no responsibilities and tons of free time to just write and write to my heart's content.

Chapter Forty:  Changes

For some reason I cannot fathom the TARDIS has put my mum in the room next to the Doctor’s. When we walk into our room it’s to find a twin bed. “What’s going on?” I ask.

“I think the TARDIS is trying to respect your mother’s wishes,” he says with annoyance in his voice.

I frown. “It’s only for a few days,” I say. But I don’t like it either. I have gotten used to sleeping in the same bed with him, his arms bringing me comfort. I return to my old room, a few doors away from Mum’s. Even my bed is smaller. I am not happy with the TARDIS for making these changes.
