    @@@@@Motherhood is all but worshipped among my kindIf
    she is unwilling…” I shook my head“I have no idea how that will be handledThis doesn't
    happen elsewhereThe emotions of these bodies are so much stronger than logic
    I glanced up at Jared and IanThey were both staring openmouthed at the interspecies family in
    the park
    “No,” I murmured to myself“No one would force the parents if they wanted the childAnd
    justlook at them
    The father had his arms around both the mother and the child nowHe looked down at his host
    body's biological son with staggering tenderness in his eyes
    “Aside from ourselves, this is the first planet we've discovered with live birthsYours certainly
    isn't the easiest or most prolific systemI wonder if that's the difference… or if it's the
    helplessness of your youngEverywhere else, reproduction is through some form of eggs or
    seedsMany parents never even meet their youngI wonder…” I trailed off, my thoughts full of
    speculation
    The mother lifted her face to her partner, and he kissed her lipsThe human child crowed with
    delightPerhaps, someday, some of my kind and some of yours will live in peaceWouldn't that
    be… strange?”
    Neither man could tear his eyes from the miracle in front of them
    The family was leavingThe mother dusted the sand off her jeans while the father took the boy
    Then, holding hands that they swung between them, the souls strolled toward the apartments
    with their human child

    @@@@@Rhett had never regretted or explained
    @@@@@Rhett had never regretted or explained anything he had
    done
    in his tempestuous younger yearsThere was nothing he was
    ashamed
    of
    Except the effects on his young sisterBecause of his rebellious
    defiance of family and society, his father had disowned himRhett's
    name was only an inked-over line in the Butler family Bible when
    Rosemary's birth was recordedShe was more than twenty years
    hisjuniorHe did not even see her until she was thirteen, an awkward
    girl with long legs, large feet, and budding breasts
    Their mother had disobeyed her husband for one of the few times in
    her
    life when Rhett began the dangerous life of blockade runner through
    the
    Union fleet and into Charleston HarborShe came by night to the dock
    where his ship was moored, bringing Rosemary to meet himThe
    deep vein
    of loving tenderness in Rhett was inexpressively moved by the
    confusion
    and need that he sensed in his young sister, and he welcomed her to
    his shirt with all the warmth that their father had never been able to
    giveIn turn, Rosemary gave him the trust and loyalty that their
    father had never in spiredThe bond between brother and sister had
    never been severed, despite the fact that they saw each other no more
    than a dozen times from first meeting until Rhett came home to
    Charleston eleven years laterHe had never forgiven himself for
    accepting their mother's reassurance that Rosemary was well and
    happy
    and sheltered by the money he lavished on them once his father was
    dead
    and could no longer intercept and return itHe should have been
    more
    alert, more attentive, he accused himself laterThen perhaps his
    sister would not have grown up distrusting men the way she did
    Perhaps she would have loved and married and had childrenAs it
    was,
    when he returned home he found a twenty-four-year- old woman with
    the
    same awkwardness of the thirteen-year-old he had first metShe was
    uncomfortable with all men except him; she used the distant lives in
    novels as a substitute for the uncertainty of life in the world; she
    rejected the conventions of society about how a woman should look
    and
    think and behaveRosemary was a bluestocking, distressingly
    forthright, and totally lacking in feminine wiles and vanityRhett
    loved her, and he respected her prickly independenceHe couldn't
    make
    up for the years he'd missed, but he could give her the rarest gift of
    all-his inner selfHe was completely honest with Rosemary, talked to
    her as an equal and, on occasion, even confided the secrets of his shirt
    to her, as he had never done to any other personShe recognized the
    immensity of hisgift, and she adored himIn the fourteen months that
    Rhett had been home, the over-tall, illat-ease, innocent spinster and
    the oversophisticated, disillusioned adventurer had become the closest
    of friendsNow Rosemary felt betray

    Marie watched her husband as he walked back and forth, the pacing deliberate, energizedHe
    tramped angrily between the writing table and the sunlit curtains of the two windows overlooking
    the front lawn of the Auberge des Artistes in BarbizonThe country inn was the one Marie
    remembered, but it was not part of David Webb’s memory; and when he said as much, his wife
    briefly closed her eyes, hearing another voice from years ago
    “Above everything, he’s got to avoid extreme stress, the kind of tension that goes with survival
    under life—threatening circumstancesIf you see him regressing into that state of mind—and you’ll
    know it when you see it—stop himSeduce him, slap him, cry, get angry anything, just stop

    touch farcical, awkward for both of themNeither was remotely arousedYet there was no
    embarrassment; they held each other on the bed, both understanding
    “We’re a couple of real sexpots, aren’t we?” said Marie
    “We’ve been there before,” replied David Webb gently, “and I’ve no doubt we’ll be there
    again Then Jason Bourne rolled away and stood up“I have to make a list,” he said urgently,
    heading for the quaint country table against the wall that served as a desk and a place for the
    telephone“We have to know where we are and where we’re going
    “And I have to call Johnny on the island,” added Marie, rising to her feet and smoothing her
    skirt“After I talk to him I’ll speak to JamieI’ll reassure him and tell him we’ll be back soon The
    wife crossed to the table; she stopped, blocked by her husband—her husband yet not her husband
    “No,” said Bourne quietly, shaking his head
    “Don’t say that to me,” protested the mother, anger flashing in her eyes

    Papa sent me to AmericaIt's a wretched place
    "He
    sent you, sister dear, to get you out of the clutches of that fortune
    hunter "But he was so attractiveI don't see any point in having a
    fortune if you have to fend off every attractive man in England simply
    because he's not rich
    "At least you're supposed to fend them off, Felicity," said a girl
    "That's easy enough to doThink of our poor brotherRoger's
    supposed to draw American heiresses like flies, and marry a fortune to
    refill the family coffers Roger groaned and everyone laughedTalk
    about Rhett, Scarlett implored silently"There's simply no market for
    Honourables," Roger said"I can't get it through Papa's head
    Heiresses want tiaras The older woman they called Frances said that
    she thought they were all disgraceful and that she couldn't understand
    young people today"When I was a gel-" she began"Frances, dear, when you were a 'gel' there were no
    young peopleYour generation were born forty years old and
    disapproving of everything

    @@@@@
    “You want to come out here and stretch?” he offered“My back is aching just thinking about
    that stupid hole
    Ironically, considering my week of maddening silence, I wasn't in the mood for companyBut
    his offer wasn't one I could refuseBefore I could think about it, my hands were pulling me
    through the exit
    Jeb was sitting with crossed legs on the matI watched him for some reaction as I shook out my
    arms and legs and rolled my shoulders, but he had his eyes closedLike the time of Jamie's visit,
    he looked asleep
    How long had it been since I'd seen Jamie? And how was he now? My already sore heart gave a
    painful little lurch
    “Feel better?” Jeb asked, his eyes opening
    “It's going to be okay, you know He grinned a wide, face-stretching grin“That stuff I said to
    Jared… Well, I won't say Ilied, exactly, because it's all true if you look at it from a certain angle,
    but from another angle, it wasn't so much the truth as it was what he needed to hear
    I just stared; I didn't understand a word of what he was saying
    “Anyway, Jared needs a break from thisNot from you, kid,” he added quickly, “but from the
    situationHe'll gain some perspective while he's away
    I wondered how he seemed to know exactly which words and phrases would cut at meAnd,
    more than that, why should Jeb care if his words hurt me, or even if my back was aching and
    throbbing? His kindness toward me was frightening in its own way because it was
    incomprehensibleAt least Jared's actions made senseKyle's and Ian's murder attempts, the
    doctor's cheerful eagerness to hurt me–these behaviors also were logicalWhat
    did Jeb want from me?
    “Don't look so glum,” Jeb urged“There's a bright side to thisJared was being real pigheaded
    about you, and now that he's temporarily out of the picture, it's bound to make things more
    comfortable

    @@@@@"All right, Miss Cookie
    1104
    "Cost me what?" Her voice was the sound of sand
    against a windowThe grating sound of the shells
    But it was also Ilse's voice
    "Just a kiss," I said, "while I'm still alive to
    feel itI couldn't feel my lips - they
    were numb - but I could feel the muscles around
    them stretching"I suppose it will
    be a sandy one, but I'll pretend you've been
    playing on the beach
    She came closer, moving in a queer shamble-drift
    that wasn't walking, and up close the illusion
    collapsed entirelyIt was like bringing a
    painting close to your eyes and watching as the
    scene - portrait, landscape, still life -
    collapses into nothing but strokes of color, most
    with the marks of the brush still embedded in them
    Ilse's features disappearedWhat I saw where they
    had been was nothing but a furious cyclone of sand
    and tiny bits of shellWhat I smelled wasn't skin
    and hair but only salt water
    Pallid arms reached for meMembranes of sand
    smoked off them in the windThe moon shone
    through themI held up the flashlightAnd its barrel was plastic rather than
    stainless steel
    "You might want a look at this before you go
    giving away kisses, though," I said"It came from
    the glove compartment of Jack Cantori's carThe
    one with Perse inside is locked in Elizabeth's
    safe
    The thing froze, and when it did, the wind off the
    Gulf tore away the last semblance of humanityIn
    that moment I was confronting nothing but a
    whirling sand-devilI took no chances, however;
    it had been a long day, and I had no intention of
    taking chances, especially if my daughter were
    somewhereand waiting
    for her final restI swung my arm as hard as I
    could, the flashlight clamped in my fist and Nan

    wrist

    “Can I speak with you, Fanny, for a few minutes?” said he
    “My opinion!” she cried, shrinking from such a compliment, highly
    as it gratified her
    “Yes, your advice and opinionI do not know what to doThis
    acting scheme gets worse and worse, you seeThey have chosen

    to any of usThis is the end of all the privacy and propriety which
    was talked about at firstI know no harm of Charles Maddox; but
    the excessive intimacy which must spring from his being admitted
    among us in this manner is highly objectionable, the more than
    intimacy—the familiarityI cannot think of it with any patience;

    I felt the back of my neck get hot, but I ignored the last part“I don't mind getting my hands

    Once we got to the big plaza cave, we started passing humansThey all stared, infuriated, as
    usualI was beginning to recognize most of them: the middle-aged woman with the long

    round belly, thinning sandy hair, and ruddy cheeks had been with herThe athletic-looking
    woman with the caramel brown skin had been the one bent to tie her shoe the first time I'd
    come out here during the dayAnother dark-skinned woman with thick lips and sleepy eyes had
    been in the kitchen, near the two black-haired children–perhaps she was their mother? Now we
    passed Maggie; she glowered at Jeb and turned her face away from meWe passed a pale,
    sick-looking man with white hair whom I was sure I'd never seen before
