“By Sylvia, the wife of the Indian consul…”
“What for?!”
“She brought gifts …”
“Wait, the consul's wife… Is he married? So, she probably wanted to kill you!”
“No, not me, my child …”
“Wait, what!?!? … Well, yes, it's logical … it was Dominic's child, right? And you drank what his wife gave you…”
“It was just herbal tea …”
“Probably a traditional Indian remedy for abortion, or even a poison! … Oh, Olga, sorry, I made you tired. Get some sleep …”
“Why did you come to me at that exact time? Did something happen?”
“You called me yourself and I called you back. Then nothing! And I decided to go to you. Just in time! By the way, you didn't lock the front door, you need to be careful, Olga!!!! I will be there until you are discharged, and later too, until you get stronger! Your fridge is empty. I've already bought everything. I’d stay with you for now, if you don’t mind …
“I object and your wife Zina too!”
“Zina won’t mind. She’d come herself, but she got some urgent work …”
Denis finally left. Olga sighed. She had a surgery, no more children … Yes, with her negative rhesus, to have children were quite difficult, and with her luck, almost impossible!
Olga thought about Julia, her friend, who became sterile after the birth of her mutant child.
Olga herself feared that she could become pregnant from that Indian consul who could be a mutant. Dominic simply fascinated her then, in a completely incomprehensible way.
Julia also did not escape Dominic’s spell. Poor Julia! And Olga just abandoned her, never called …
Olga was finally discharged from the hospital home.
Denis came to pick her up and then looked after her for another day.
Later Olga insisted on Denis’ returning home to his wife. The fact that Zina never called or came was a bad sign.
“How funny it turned out, Denis, you said that mutants are sterile, and then Ray was born! All the women, who got pregnant from “sterile” mutants, then got “sterile” themselves …”
“What are you talking about, Olga?”
“Julia will never have children, and neither will I. Two of a kind!”
“You had something with mutant Ray!?!”
“Denis!! It's impossible to talk to you sometimes!”
“Aww! You think your Indian Dominic is a mutant! I don’t think so! He probably gave you some kind of potion, just like his wife Sylvia!!! They also have witchcraft and drugs are very popular too. Wait!!! Have you become barren? Olga! I'm such a fool!!! Forgive me! I never called you. You have been alone all this time, and I was the one who brought you to this Island.”
Denis hugged Olga, and she clung to him. What a familiar scent, the scent of his childhood!
How strange everything turned out on this island. The beautiful Olga, a secretary and Denis' first love, with whom he flew over here to work on a contract few years ago…
How did she turn into their boss' mistress and even for a while into an English lady?!
How did she later on become the “beloved wife” of the Indian consul Dominic!?
And how did Olga turn up again in the role of a secretary? …
And how did Denis turn up married to a large and lively IT woman Zina, the complete opposite of Olga? …
How!? …
Chapter 3
Is the Golden Zandolie immortal?
Julia was in her beloved “secret garden”, completely immersed in the work on the ending of her new science fiction novel.
The story in her new novel was ending well – all humans and aliens have learned to live happily together, and their mutant children were also able to find their love.
A new race of humans was born, in which the blood of aliens was flowing. They all had negative rhesus and an accelerated metabolism …
Julia thought about it. In reality, everything was quite different.
She herself had a child from a mutant Marley, an alien's son. She was pregnant for few years. Then the “alien seed” suddenly activated, had developed inside rapidly and almost killed her! After the birth of her mutant son Ray, Julia became barren.
How could everything happen on that distant planet from which the alien Golden Zandolie fled to Earth? Maybe those aliens would give birth only once in a lifetime? And only in the most appropriate moment? …
After all, Julia gave birth exactly when her life became calm and successful….
Years have passed since the death of Golden Zandolie. Perhaps there are still women on the Island, who are pregnant from the rebel alien? If their life's full of worries and problems, they would not give birth very soon.
Ray's father, Marley, said that Zandolie was keeping a close eye on women after his sexual intercourse, and was taking away newborn babies. Then it seemed strange to Julia, because he would have to raise babies himself, which should be quite troublesome.
However later, on the example of her own mutant child, she realized, that everything was simple – children were growing up very quickly and were self-taught!
Bang! – and you have a clever muscular giant, with lightning eyes capable of hypnotizing or killing anyone. The perfect soldier! Such as her late lover Marley, such as her son Ray!
Interesting, what was their life expectancy…
Oh, Marley! He died, destroying his father Zandolie for the safety of people … with help from other aliens, who would not tolerate any interbreed with humans …
Sometimes it seemed to Julia, that she was still hearing Marley's voice or feeling his touch. Marley's soul remained with her forever. Sometimes she had the same dream that she was finding Marley in a coma and waking him up with a kiss.
With the spirit of Marley, she had a much warmer relationship, than with the living two heroes – her husband Scott and her mutant son Ray. And Scott and Ray became even closer friends.
They all had a common cause – gold! Black mutants were doing an excellent job of gold mining. Humans could not work in the toxic conditions of a seething acid lake with golden shores.
