Reasonable Marines Novels & Stories

{KYLE’S POV} Kyle paced the deck of the small yacht, anxious as they sped in the early morning towards Martha’s Vineyard. He could not stand still. He hated boats, and he hated water. Worse, he hated crossing water, like most of his kind. Perhaps even more than most.

The morning sun poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the legal wing, illuminating a workspace that looked more like an elite command center than a corporate office. On the polished glass table lay the physical copy of the Federal Maritime Commission’s routing audit request, flanked by three glowing holographic tablets. To the average corporate attorney, a standard federal permit review was a headache. To Marcus Vance and Damaris Sterling, it was a minor chess match they could play in their sleep.

We run for miles as K-5 courses through our veins and the fresh air cleans my brain of thoughts of war and violence. We round a bend in the inlet and stop at a boat that's been washed up on shore long before Shadow Warriors arrived. It's large and stayed together well considering there's a large hole in the starboard side. Dried barnacles cover most of the side and bottom showing it was submerged for quite some time before it washed up. Marinah examines it intensely. "Break or run back?" I ask her after a few minutes. Her large, sharp teeth gleam when she turns to me and smiles. "Run."

Dozens of space pirates surrounding the merchant ship acted immediately, but Marlee was not weak either. Although this was a merchant ship for transporting goods, after the transformation, its offensive and defensive were not too weak. Many accidents were bound to happen during the long distance from the Jung family to the Central Sacred Continent. Therefore, they would still need some means to deal with these simple problems. After Boss the space pirate ordered his people to attack, Marlee immediately ordered in a deep voice, “Everyone, attack!” Boom boom boom! All the cannon barrels on the merchant ship fired energy cannons at the space pirates rushing over.

He ordered, and Megan stilled, raising her sad honey tear filled eyes to meet his, and he almost drowned in them. “We agreed to Make the journey to the west with our best warriors, and we would make him sign over the exclusive rights of its high seas.” Rhode said, and Megan gasped as she sat up. Everything hitting her at once. “It's high seas? Are you mad?” She asked, she knew just how much revenue was brought in from the high seas alone, and when the tide hits right, it could feed a whole village. She had no idea what to think at that moment. Rhode had protected her, while simultaneously taking out the biggest revenue center of his competition.

I saw the amusement leave Mia's face and the narrowing of Isaac's eyes as they both looked at the table furiously. "If there is a pup here, clearly it is you after you failed to follow simple instructions, Alpha Ian." Mia snapped making the entire room turn to her. "Did we not order your mate and beta to stay in your pack or did Alpha Alex fail to give you my order or are you so incompetent that-" "Mia..." His majesty says stopping her as her eyes began to flash and her powerful aura began to emit pulse out of her in waves almost choking the room. I held my breath trying not to tremble and watched his majesty do that arched brow thing making both Mia and Isaac growl lowly. Her eyes flashed t

“Mars. The ungrateful ass.” “Mars? Like the planet?” “Like Marceline. But no one calls me that.” “I like it. Suits you better.” He stood, offered me his hand. “You staying in town?” “Two weeks. I’m a travel blogger.” “Let me guess. You’re here to write about our ‘charming coastal town’ and ‘pristine beaches.’” “Something like that.” “Well, Mars the travel blogger, next time you want to swim, check the flags. Red means dangerous conditions. Like today.”

Richard affirmed, "The open sea not only lacks laws but also serves as a place to settle personal grudges. Almost every immortal with grievances chooses to settle them in the open sea. Therefore, you must be cautious, as the danger often comes from fellow immortals." Adrian nodded appreciatively and asked with a grateful smile, "You've been very helpful. But there's still one thing I'm unclear about. While other immortal regions use celestial herbs as the main ingredient, the maritime immortal regions use beasts. Have beast numbers decreased recently?" Seeing Adrian's concern, Richard reassured him, "No need to worry. Beasts in the open sea are inexhaustible. They have a rampant reproductive

"Two months, three weeks, five days, and about fifteen hours. I love how reminiscent you are." He nodded and spread his legs out. "I want us to settle this." I cocked my head to the side. "And why should we? Got any tangible reason?" "You're one of the men at the top of the food chains. The blue whales. I am nothing but a..." He stroked his chin for a while. "A marlin? I think that perfectly represents my position on the food chain." "Enough of the flattering and go straight to the point." Marchetti raised both of his hands in the air. "Fine. I think we'd be good business partners if we sat down and, you know, negotiated this thing. We should stop being at loggerheads."
