A Warning from someone who knows...
“We all like to believe we are masters of our fate. However, usually it isn’t true. Somewhere, a person exists, sometimes completely unknown to you, whose slightest action impacts your life.”
Blurb
Jason Connors, the head of the
FBI, becomes involved in a simple immigration case in which a doctor from
Africa has married an American woman so he can enter the United States. Some
claim the doctor is not human, but rather a cat-like alien species that can
mimic the human form. Determined to discover what is really going on, he sends
his brightest agent, Carmella Ginkabo, to Africa, to uncover the facts.
Courageously, she travels deep into the jungle to learn the truth from the first of this species who originally landed on Earth two hundred years prior. Her discovery alters the future of Earth forever.

EXCERPT
“Sometimes, fate is like that,
bringing together people who need each other,” the doctor said.
“Need each other?” Catina repeated. “In this case the need appears to have been all on my part.”
Schuler coughed. “Yeah, well, actually I promised the doctor a favor in return. Except it ain’t me that’s got to do the favor. It’s you.”
Catina didn’t like the worried look on Schuler’s face.
“Maybe we should wait until she’s stronger,” Dr. Tiburon suggested.
“No,” Schuler replied. “I better tell her now while she’s weak and can’t kill me.”
“Schuler,” Catina glared at her tracker, “What have you done?”
“Well you gotta understand the situation. You were almost dead when I got you to the village. The doctor had one vial of antiserum in his case, and that weren’t near enough to counteract the amount of venom in your blood. So we needed to get you to the hospital quick.”
“And?”
“When I radioed, I was told no chopper would be available for at least two days, at which time, I’ll be carrying out a corpse. However, the doctor got a copter there in two hours. So just remember, I was negotiating for your life.”
Catina turned to the handsome doctor. “So how much do I owe you?”
“It is not money, Ms. Nelson. To get the helicopter, I had to barter away something very important. I only ask you to replace what I lost in the trade.”
“Of course. And that was?”
“American citizenship.”
Catina blinked. “Pardon?”
“I had paid a woman considerable money to marry me, so I could enter the States as her husband. Now she has married the man who sent the helicopter to save you.”
Catina was stunned. “You want me to marry you, so you can become an American citizen?”
“That is what I bartered away to save your life. That is what your tracker promised in your behalf to replace.”
