Council further admonished its representatives that all of this must be done with the utmost secrecy; for if Thanatos, the Supreme Kazair the Dark Nebula, were to learn of the plan, there would be nothing to stop him from also enacting the Privilege of Consanguinity and thereby claiming Earth as under the rule and command of the Dark Nebula.
The plan must be kept secret so that when the Dark Nebula made further moves to encroach upon the Milky Way, the High Council would be able to, with full impunity, having insured the ancient blood right, protect its territory with full, and lethal force.
With some reservations, the High Council members took this information back to their home planets and laid the plan before the members of their great houses. The representatives informed them that a member of each of their houses would have to wed, and procreate with, an Earthling in order to assure the continued survival and safety of the United Federation of Astria.
And so, while these cosmic decisions played out in the heavens above them, the ignorant Earthlings slept blissfully, and peacefully, in their beds, never knowing that the swiftly titling planet they called home held the fate of the universe within its little solar system…

“ I t's not like a rich , handsome, desirable man, who also happens to be madly attracted to me, is just going to fall out of the sky and land at my feet, now is he?"
Jane Jenkins was sick of having the same conversation with her mother every Sunday night.
"Why aren’t you married yet? Why don't you have a boyfriend? Why aren't you bringing someone to Thanksgiving?" It was always a variation on the same theme with her.
It wasn't that she hadn’t tried to meet Mr. Right; it was just that Mr. Wrong liked to disguise himself as Mr. Right. Jane had been on ten blind dates in the past five weeks and she couldn't take it anymore. There had to be a better way to meet someone than by trolling the Internet want ads.
Jane wouldn't have minded so much – after all, she was a modern girl – and it didn't really matter to her whether or not she had a man by her side. The truth was, she had a good job, she had a nice apartment, she paid her own bills; for all intents and purposes, she had a nice life.
No, she definitely didn't need a man by her side, however she wouldn't have minded man under her.
Over her.
Behind her.
But she would never tell her mother that.

" J ane , I think this one is all yours," Gavin said with a smirk in his voice. Jane looked up at him to see him give her a wink.
Gavin was a skirt-chasing womanizer, so Jane wasn't surprised when she looked towards the door and she saw a man standing there. Gavin always left her to guys, and he took the single women as clients for himself.
Jane was surprised to see anyone at the real estate office on a Monday evening; it was usually a very slow shift, waiting for walk – ins.
“Oh never mind..." said Gavin. "Looks like they’re with each other." He said that last part with a whisper. His additional lascivious wink was not lost on Jane.
Jane didn't much care who her clients were, as long as they had cold hard cash to buy a house. However, as she looked up and saw the two men standing in the doorway of the real estate office, her pulse jumped, and she thought she just might have to reevaluate her stance.
Before her stood two of the most unearthly handsome men she had ever seen in her life. They were both tall, almost unnaturally so, broad-shouldered with narrow tapered waists, and she could see the muscles of their legs flexing through the skin tight trousers they wore.
One of the men had light hair, and the other had dark, but other than that, they both had very similar features: long straight noses and luscious, full mouths set in square jawed faces.
Jane sat slack-jawed in her chair, the pause awkwardly long. The two men were looking around the office curiously and conversing with each other in quiet tones.
