"Who the hell is coming to visit you?" growled a voice from beside Ben. He turned to see Jack standing beside him, wrapped in the fluffy white robe with white guest slippers on his feet."Did they wake you?" Ben asked."I'd recognize the sound of those carriers anywhere." He looked at Ben. "You do work for the military?""No! I mean, I've designed something they're interested in and I was told they wanted to meet me but I wasn't expecting them so soon. My latest device caught the eye of a Colonel Alexander Hargrave." Ben said watching the vehicles at the end of his driveway. No movement yet."Crap. That blowhard. I've heard of him. He's apparently more of a salesman than a soldier." He tipped his chin up at the display. "This is one of his shock and awe moves. He wants whatever you're selling. What do you do?""I'm a Mechanical Engineer. I designed a filter for radioactive particles. A very good filter," Ben said."Well, that's going to make the Army stiff in their kilts," Jack said w

Catherine walked around the corner into the living room pulling Chanel with her. Ben and Gretchen followed, his arm once more around her to calm her in the room full of new people."DAD! MOM!" Catherine squealed as she burst into a huge smile and ran into her parent's open arms.Ben smiled at the happiness on the parent's faces. Catherine got hugs and kisses from her parents who also seemed a little overwhelmed. He guided Gretchen over to the couch where Lucy moved so Ben could seat Gretchen between them. Tina and Lucy both took one of Gretchen's hands to help calm her. She smiled at them. Ben went to stand with Chanel who was almost trembling with her own nervousness. "You ok?" Ben whispered and got a sharp nod which obviously meant no. He didn't press.Catherine was holding her parent's hands as she stood back to face them. "Mom, Dad, I know this is all rather sudden but I'd like to introduce you to Chanel Babineaux, my fiancé."Ben was rocked by the news but then he remembered that

Ben was sitting in his chair working out a new floor plan for extending his house out over the foundation of his basement workshop. When he'd built the large room he'd excavated the back yard to extend the building eastward an additional twenty-eight feet. The foundation had been poured and to eliminate the need for support posts he'd welded in ten cross connected I-beams spanning the width of the room like ribs to support the poured concrete ceiling. The building permit office told him he didn't need so many but Ben felt more comfortable with over engineering for maximum strength and durability. Then he'd covered the entire extension with a waterproof membrane to direct water to the weeping tile and buried it under the back yard once more.He was designing the extension for the ground floor that would be built out over his office. The current design had the master bedroom occupying the space at the far end with a new walk-in closet and master ensuite. He was going to have to upgrade

"Ben! So delighted you did! I hear you just returned from rescuing young women in Australia!" the man said with a delighted grin.Ben glanced to the others at his table and saw they were all looking at him in surprise. He sighed. "Uh yeah, I did find one who needed a little help.""It's wonderful that you are keeping chivalry alive!" Stephane gushed."Please, I'm just doing what needs to be done because I can," Ben said humbly.The man's smile couldn't get any wider. "Well I hope you have a wonderful time tonight at our club! Will you be visiting the Steam Room?"Ben caught the excited looks on Karen's and Penny's faces and grinned at them. "Yes, some of my group didn't get a chance to enjoy the experience last time so I believe we will. My treat." The girls squealed with joy and the twins looked at Ben with heat in their eyes. He suddenly recalled their activities on their previous visit and his face flushed."Excellent! I'll let them know. Have a wonderful time and welcome back to t

Apparently, Mariana had managed to escape and called the police. She was in the next room clinging to a bruised but happy Hector who was being interviewed by another officer. He was giving the same story the twins gave from his point of reference, when he'd been standing over the man he'd taken out.Hannah sighed with relief. She left Trish waiting outside the curtain of the twin's cubicle and made her way over to Jayden and Ben's daughters who were standing next to the bed Frank was sitting up in."How are you doing Frank?" Hannah asked.The young man was holding Penny's hand and smiling at her. "I'm doing ok. My head is ringing a little. The big guy sucker punched me. He hits really hard!" Penny leaned in and kissed his temple making him smile again.Hannah smiled at him. "Did you give your statements to the police?" she asked the group."Yes, we spoke with them at the club. We were the first ones to be interviewed," Karen said."I was hit the moment I walked out of the change room
