Corinne was en route to hospital to give birth, with her husband and three-year-old son, when little Matilda decided it was time to enter the world a little earlier than expected, so Corinne gave birth in the front seat of the family car on the side of the road!
With a stroke of luck Corinne's birth photographer Breanna Gravener, just happened to be travelling behind them on the road and managed to capture these beautiful photos of Matilda's birth.
An hour earlier, Breanna had received a text from Corinne's husband to say that Corinne was in the early stages of labour and he'll keep her updated. 30 minutes later, another text came through saying that they were going to head to hospital shortly so Breanna arranged her own childcare urgently and headed out the door. The original plan was to meet at the hospital but Breanna thought she would drop past their house just in case and upon her arrival they were just hopping in the car and driving off, so she just followed them…
Breanna said "We had a 30 minute drive ahead of us. Cruising down the highway I was wondering how Corinne was going. I knew this birth wouldn't be really long as Corinne knew how to keep her body relaxed and efficient to birth as she teaches Hypnobirthing classes.
Suddenly the car pulls off to the side, just outside the apple shop! Immediately I knew what must be happening and adrenaline goes in overdrive as I also see Mishi jump out. Grabbing my camera and running to the passenger door I think I was clicking my button before I even got there. haha. Thankfully I wasn't 3 seconds later.."
How amazing are these photos and what perfect timing on Breanna's part.
For more information and to see Breanna's beautiful birth photography head on over to her website and facebook page.
A huge thank you to Breanna for sharing these images with Hello Baby.
Buying shoes for your little one is a complete minefield for any parent, but buying shoes for your toddler son is a whole other ball game. Not only do the shoes need to be comfortable and supportive, they also need to be robust enough to cope with the demands of the energetic little dude. They need to look good too and appeal to the little man himself, because I can tell you from experience, he won't try anything on that doesn't catch his eye!
When I was approached by Clarks to participate in their #styledbyclarks challenge, it really couldn't have been better timed. Jack was in desperate need of some new shoes, having worn his previous pair to death, so I was delighted to take part.
Armed with our vouchers kindly gifted by Clarks, Jack, Phoebs and I went on a little shopping trip to The Trafford Centre and came away with a fab pair of Beven Time trainers.
(Excuse the scratch on the front of the right shoe – the little klutz tripped up a step on his first outing with them; he obviously wasn't used to having longer shoes!)
They were his number one choice (and mine actually!) and he hasn't taken them off his feet for the past few weeks so they must be super comfy! They also look pretty cool too…
Are you and your children big fans of Clarks? Why don't you share your little ones enjoying their Clarks shoes too (and don't forget to include the hasthtag #styledbyclarks on social media!)
I loved Clarks shoes for my eldest (he's now 13) but as my 2 year old has suspected Autism (getting tested in 2 weeks) he doesn't like anything on his feet, socks or shoes so I really don't know if it would be a waste of money to buy him a pair of Clarks or if it would help…
These natural, playful images were captured by the fabulous Anna Hardy Photography at Sadie's grandparents home and Sadie's mummy Sammi is understandably over the moon with them:
"We contacted Anna to originally photograph Sadie's first birthday party as you never get to have another 1st party! As it happens Anna was getting married on this day so we decided to get some natural shots taken whilst up North at Jake's family home. We cannot be more thrilled with what Anna has captured, these are images we will treasure forever as they show Sadie being how she is everyday and these are the things I think we may struggle to fully remember as the years go by. How messy she likes to get at dinner time, how she loves to run naked (and riot!) before bath time but most of all her little facial expressions when she is excited, tired, happy and so on. We would hate to have forgotten these memories so we cannot thank Anna enough for her very real pictures, especially the ones of her cute little bum!"
For more information and to see Anna's fabulous photography portfolio head on over to her website. You can also find her on facebook, twitter, pinterest and instagram.
Finally a huge thanks to Anna for sharing these beautiful images with Hello Baby.
Oh wow, these are stunning! I'm really not into all the staged baby photography so love these shots, What a talented photographer & a beautiful baby girl!
My Fourth installment of 'handmade with love' introduces Charlotte Holmes, the lovely lady behind SWYC.
If you haven't heard of it yet, SWYC (Say What You C) is a brand new, London-based, home and accessories brand that recently launched with a distinct collection of personalised necklaces called the SWYCH collection that I absolutely adore.
The SWYCH necklace collection is an offering of bespoke handmade designs where your choice of word, saying or date is metal stamped across a matte finished Iron bar. They are super simple but look incredible and I especially love them layered up as modelled here by one of Charlotte's fans Louise Redknapp…
Name: Charlotte Holmes
Company: SWYC (Say What You C)
Tell me a little bit more about yourself: Born and bred in London, I draw inspiration from antique fairs across the UK alongside frequent travels abroad.
Describe your business in one sentence: Designs with disposition.
When did you start your business? We are a new brand just launched in May 2014.
What did you do before you set up your company? I'm still working full time for a film merchandise company in Soho.
Did you face any challenges setting up your company? Not yet – we want to grow organically which so far is working for us. We had a slight shortage on stock but due to great relationships with our suppliers we were able to replenish in 2 weeks.
What is a typical work day for you? I work 9-5pm full time and then in the studio 7-10pm. It's busy but hugely rewarding and I like being busy and being driven by results.
Describe your creative space: To be honest I don't have a designated spot – I find most of my ideas are generated away from the Studio when I am out and about.
What and who inspires you? Entrepreneurs/New start ups in general – I find it incredibly inspiring how people decide to go out there and try it for themselves – I love the pro-activeness.
What has been your biggest achievement so far? Setting up SWYC.
What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given? Never give up!
Have you always been creatively driven? Absolutely – throughout school and university I always excelled at Creative Projects and found these the most rewarding and this has continued throughout my professional career.
What projects are you working on at the moment? Several – all a secret so watch this space – new products both for the SWYCH jewellery collection and an Interior Design item range.
What has been the most interesting or exciting project you've worked on? Launching the SWYCH jewellery collection has been incredibly exciting especially seeing sales rise from literally launch day and receiving some high profile orders.
In terms of your work what couldn't you live without? My IPhone!
What do you love most about what you do? I love the travel involved sourcing new products and the sense of achievement when I look at the order book each day.
What are your business dreams? For SWYC to keep growing and for more product lines to be added each quarter to keep the brand fresh and interesting.
When are you happiest? At home on my old Chesterfield, Dyptique candle lit, after a rewarding day.
How gorgeous are these necklaces?! They are also super affordable too; the long bar is £28 and the short bar is £24.
If you'd like to purchase a necklace or two click here. I can't wait to get my hands on a few with the children's names on and perhaps our wedding date as I love the layered look.
You can also follow SWYC on twitter and instagram.

Classes can be any day of the week (even weekends) in the morning, afternoon or evening.
In certain circumstances, if your home or office is not suitable, you can take your classes at the trainer's office. All course materials are provided.
We will be happy to offer a free language consultancy before the start of your language training course. This normally takes the form of a telephone conversation in which your specific language training requirements are discussed. We talk about the business situations in which you might be required to use your new language skills, and what work-specific terminology you would like to be able to use in the target language. We can also advise on the best method of learning for you to achieve your goals, and then design a language training course which will enable you to achieve them.
I have had two classes with Natasha, my teacher, and it has been a very good experience. She is an excellent teacher!
With a one-on-one business Spanish course from Language Trainers, you can quickly and significantly improve the effectiveness of your Spanish in business communication. Once the basics have been dealt with - that is, customary greetings and corporate etiquette - the student's specific needs are taken into account, together with exercises in reading and writing. You will feel more in control of your career once you know that dealing with Spanish speaking business people is no longer going to be a problem for you.
Whatever reason you need to learn or improve your Spanish skills, a one-on-one Spanish course in Howard County with Language Trainers is the perfect solution. The requirements of the student are paramount: after dealing with the rudimentary Spanish concepts and greetings, the course outline depends entirely on what the student needs. Our One-on-One courses in Spanish are excellent for students with differing needs and plans. Whether you want to start a new life abroad or just gain a hobby you will find what you are looking for with our classes.
Of course, we don't all like to learn on our own all of the time. Those Spanish students who want their classes at the same time as someone else haven't been forgotten. They can still learn Spanish in Howard County in the best way possible thanks to our Two-on-One and In-Company Small Group sessions. All participants must have the same language needs, be able to study at the same time at the same place and be at the same level. All participants should be booked at the same time. This type of approach is ideal for up to 8 Spanish students. Bigger groups than this can still be catered for, with a maximum of 12 able to take part in an In-Company Taster Spanish course.
English is generally agreed to be one of the more difficult languages to learn, mainly because of its arbitrary way of pronouncing different combinations of diphthongs and vowels. (For example, 'r...

UnitedHealth joint venture picks Medtronic for big stent contract
Send this to a friend
- Staff Phoenix Business Journal
Medical technology giants Medtronic Inc. and Abbott Laboratories won the first round of medical device contracts awarded by SharedClarity, a joint venture that covers roughly 135 U.S. hospitals.
The hospitals will now buy most of their stents — both drug-eluting and bare-metal — from Minnesota-based Medtronic and Illinois-based Abbott, Modern Healthcare magazine reported.
UnitedHealth Group Inc. and three health care systems launched Phoenix-based SharedClarity in 2012. The group studies which medical devices are most effective and uses that information to negotiate contracts with med tech companies.

I'm sitting in a tram lurching through Hong Kong's Central Station. The wooden seat isn't exactly comfortable and the carriage is open to the elements but I don't mind in the least.
All around me, Filipino nannies on their way to Victoria Park are nattering, cracking nuts and smiling. Like a kid, I lean out of the window. The tram stops on average every 250 metres and I'll hop off when I see something interesting.
And with a flat fare of just HK$2.30 (36 cents), it will hardly matter if I give in to my whims and have to buy another ticket.
When I'm in Hong Kong, there's nothing I like better than hopping on a tram in Central and being rattled out towards Causeway Bay.
I'd rather forgo the scenic views provided by the Star Ferry and Peak railway, and get an up-close look at Hong Kong's gloriously scruffy, chaotic neighbourhoods instead. Besides, I find the rickety old trams rather endearing.
They first started service in 1904 and, in a city constantly crazy about the new, they're a sign of nostalgia. Locals affectionately call them "ding-dings", after the double bell warning pedestrians.
Ding ding! It's like a call to new discoveries, as far as I'm concerned. Before long, I spy some street markets hidden beneath the skyscrapers just off the tram stop on Des Voeux Road.
The little alleyways that run off here are crammed with stalls selling everything from fresh vegetables to traditional quilted jackets. I would have missed them on the train but, from the tram, I can alight and investigate. I rummage through heaped T-shirts and chopstick sets, and then another tram comes and off I go again.
As the tram heads out of Central on to Queensway, I see an unexpected splash of green. Hong Kong Park is a discovery that packs in carp-filled pools and conservatories of orchids, where newly weds come to have their photos taken. The highlight, however, is the stunning walk-through aviary of 600 birds.
As I walk along a platform high in the trees, I hear the tinkle of a stream and the screeches of birds against the roar of downtown traffic.
The park has been a pleasant distraction but the journey is the central theme. As the tramline enters Wan Chai, I begin to think about lunch. I hop off on Johnston Road and wander into Wan Chai Market, where office workers are tucking into fish-ball soup and chicken's feet at street stalls.
The area is crammed with dozens of hole-in-the-wall outlets serving hearty bowls of noodles and other snacks. Soon I'm slurping at congee flavoured with fish, tangerine peel and dried scallops, sitting beside locals in string vests.
A few stops further east, after rattling beneath a kaleidoscope of neon signs, I'm in the true heart of Wan Chai, crammed with electronic and fashion stores. Then I'm ready for another stop, at a teahouse for some refreshing herbal tea. Finally, I'm off back to my hotel at a slow lurch, wheels screeching on rails, Hong Kong slowly unfolding. Ding ding.

Adapting a Garden
Solid paths can be made to accommodate wheelchairs, and raised beds can make a vegetable garden a pleasure for chair-bound individuals. Raised beds that are about 30" to 36" tall are a good choice. Typically, beds that can be accessed from at least three sides can be about two arm-lengths deep and still be fully accessible. Raised beds that can be accessed from only one side should be shallower (about one arm-length deep) so the gardener can reach in and work the entire bed without stretching.

Pipes and valves are seen at an underground gas storage facility in the village of Mryn, 120 km (75 miles) north of Kiev in this May 21, 2013 file photo. Yatseniuk said on Thursday the price Ukraine paid for Russian gas supplies would rise 79 percent from April 1 to $480 per 1,000 cubic metres. Speaking in parliament, Yatseniuk said the expected high price of gas imports from Russia from April was one of the factors pushing the country further towards economic disaster. Picture taken May 21, 201
KIEV: Ukraine on Saturday said it rejected Russia's latest gas price hike and threatened to take its neighbor to arbitration court over a dispute that could imperil deliveries to Western Europe.
Prime Minister Asreniy Yatsenyuk said Russia's two rate increases in three days were a form of "economic aggression" aimed at punishing Ukraine's new leaders for overthrowing a Moscow-backed regime last month.
Russia's natural gas giant Gazprom this week raised the price of Ukrainian gas by 81 percent -- to $485.50 from $268.50 for 1,000 cubic metres -- and now requires the ex-Soviet state to pay the highest rate of any of its European clients.
"Political pressure is unacceptable. And we do not accept the price of $500 (per 1,000 cubic metres of gas)," Yatsenyuk told a government meeting.
"Russia was unable to seize Ukraine by means of military aggression. Now, they are implementing plans to seize Ukraine through economic aggression."
Yatsenyuk said Ukraine was ready to continue to purchase gas from Russia at the old rate of $268.50 because this was "an acceptable price".
But he added that Ukraine must be ready for the possibility that "Russia will either limit or halt deliveries of gas to Ukraine" over the raging gas dispute.
Gazprom's Western European clients saw their deliveries limited in 2006 and 2010 when the energy giant -- long accused of being wielded as a political weapon by the Kremlin against uncooperative neighbours -- halted supplies to Ukraine due to disagreements over price.
Russia's gas meets about a third of EU nations' demand.
Nearly 40 percent of that flows through Ukraine while the remainder travels through the Nord Stream undersea pipeline to Germany and another link that runs through Belarus and Poland.
Ukrainian Energy Minister Yuriy Prodan told the same meeting that Kiev was ready to take Gazprom to arbitration court in Stockholm if Moscow refused to negotiate over a lower price.
"I have firmly said that we are going to try to reach an agreement," said Prodan.
"But if we fail to agree, we are going to go to arbitration court, as the current contract allows us to do," he added. "There is still time to agree with Russia."

(ABC 6 News) -- According to the Centers for Disease Control, only one in six people say their doctor has ever talked to them about alcohol use.
For binge drinkers its one in four despite research showing brief alcohol counseling can reduce consumption by nearly 25 percent.
"Questions are asked, 'How much do you drink?' But providers and nurses don't have enough training yet, or some of this specific training on how to have that conversation," said Larry Blair, director of the Fountain Center treatment center in Albert Lea.
Experts say many people are unaware of how even casual drinking can negatively impact their health, saying simple education can help decrease chances for heart disease, breast cancer, and other illnesses.
"Being able to address some of these issues early is going to have a tremendous impact on the individual, on their health, but also on the cost of healthcare," Blair said.
But there is good news.
Minnesota is starting to offer grants to primary care providers to teach doctors how to talk to patients about alcohol use so they're more aware of the dangers.
"One of the exciting things that's happening is primary care is aware of this themselves and there's a lot of movement on addressing this," Blair said. "The earlier we can address any issue, the better the outcome is."
According to the CDC at least 38 million Americans drink too much, the majority of whom are not alcoholics.
That excess drinking causes an estimated 88,000 deaths each year and results in over $200 billion in unnecessary costs.

Consumer Counsel
NorthWestern dam plan gets scrutiny at PSC hearing
HELENA — NorthWestern Energy's proposal to pay $900 million for 11 hydroelectric dams — and charge the cost to its Montana ratepayers — goes under the microscope this week, as state regulators kick off a weeklong hearing on the plan.
'Counsel is out of touch': NorthWestern assails report from consumer expert
HELENA — A consumer expert's critique of NorthWestern Energy's proposed $900 million purchase of 11 hydroelectric dams is "out of touch" with what Montana consumers want and should be rejected, the company said.
PSC votes against Consumer Counsel request for more data on NorthWestern dam plan
HELENA — On a 3-2 vote, the state Public Service Commission has allowed NorthWestern Energy to block PSC staff and a consumer attorney's requests for more analysis on the firm's proposed $900 million purchase of 11 hydroelectric dams in Montana.
PSC rejects request to undo rate structure to encourage conservation
HELENA — The state Public Service Commission has rejected requests by NorthWestern Energy, the state Consumer Counsel and others to undo a new rate structure meant to encourage conservation by utility customers.
Changes for NWE include tiered rates, decoupling
HELENA — State utility regulators Tuesday approved sweeping rate changes for NorthWestern Energy's electric and gas customers, including new "tiered" electric rates for homeowners and other mechanisms meant to encourage conservation.
Consumer Counsel agrees to settlement on Qwest-Century Link merger
HELENA — Qwest and CenturyLink, the two largest land-line telephone companies operating in Montana, have agreed to merger conditions endorsed by the Montana Consumer Counsel, likely paving the way for state regulatory approval of the companies' proposed merger.
NWE, others present rate-case settlement; no PSC sign-off yet
HELENA — NorthWestern Energy and consumer groups Tuesday presented their entire proposed settlement of an electric-and-gas rate case for NorthWestern's 335,000 customers in Montana but regulators gave no indication whether they would accept it.
NW Energy, Consumer Counsel & others propose rate-case settlement
HELENA — NorthWestern Energy, the state's largest electric-and-gas utility, and the Montana Consumer Counsel are proposing to settle a major rate case with a slight increase for electric rates and a decrease in natural gas rates.

Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, center top, delivers a broadcast speech during a rally commemorating "Liberation Day," which marks the withdrawal of the Israeli army from southern Lebanon in 2000, in the southern border town of Bint Jbeil, Lebanon, Sunday May 25, 2014. (AP Photo/Hussein Malla)
BEIRUT: Lawmakers from the Future Movement-led March 14 coalition said Monday Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah's "arrogance" and "intimidation" were on full display during his latest Liberation Day speech.
"With usual arrogance, Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, yesterday, came out to say – using muscle, not the intellectual language or the language of the law – that Hezbollah does not need anyone's protection, but that they are those who protect [others]," Lebanese Forces MP Antoine Zahra said in a statement.
Nasrallah's insistence, he said, to disrupt Lebanon's democratic system "and make it clear to everyone that either they bow to reality or they don't have a chance to lead a normal life! This is the biggest disaster we are going through in Lebanon."
In his Liberation Day speech Sunday, Nasrallah said: "We don't want a president to protect the resistance. The resistance in Lebanon is the one that protects the state, the people and the sovereignty."
Future bloc MP Ahmad Fatfat also slammed Nasrallah.
"What's new from Hezbollah is that it is not ready for any national, comprehensive vision and [it] has nothing to do with a supreme national interest," Fatfat told the Voice of Lebanon radio station.
Hezbollah's only concern, he said, is to protect its internal strategy and its external strategy, namely Iran.
"His intimidation speech is clear. He [Nasrallah] wants to impose conditions on all Lebanese. Either they accept or [there will be] no presidential elections," Fatfat said.

Silver lining seen
Publication Date : 13-09-2012
The Malaysia Education Blueprint is now officially in the public domain. This blueprint is essentially a detailed plan of action that maps out the education landscape for the next 13 years.
The government has engaged many stakeholders in the process and it expects more feedback from the public in the weeks to come.
As we have said before, the transparent manner in which this blueprint has been drawn up, and the willingness of the policymakers to listen further, should be applauded.
The blueprint is a "frank and bold" assessment of the education system. It is good that the weaknesses are openly acknowledged.
As Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak said during the launch on Tuesday, Malaysians cannot be in denial if the country is to move forward.
And his reminder that education is a national issue that should not be politicised will hopefully set the correct tone for the debate, even if Malaysia is currently in a "political season".
The future, as the blueprint has outlined, is about producing learners who will be thinkers and innovators.
That has always been the essence of real education, which teachers even within the existing system understand. They are the ones who understand that their mission is not simply to teach, but to educate.
If we want our children to think, we must do away with rote learning and a system of assessment that glorifies grades rather than effort.
If we want the children to think outside the box, we must stop building boxes to hem them in.
If we want our children to seek out knowledge and have the competitive edge in the new economy, we must equip them with the right language and ICT skills.
The prime minister's remark that we must prepare our children for jobs that are yet to exist is a case in point.
The pace of development and technological advancements in our lifetime have resulted in paradigm shifts that many of us in the working world are struggling with.
For example, as computers and automated systems increasingly take the jobs humans once held, entire professions are now extinct.
Yet, we still have decision-makers trying to impose their archaic line of thought on their very much younger workforce.
But the one thing that all the technology in the world cannot change is our brain.
A well-exercised brain can outpower even the most advanced computers.
A person who can think and innovate will never be cowed by doom and failure. Instead, he will always be able to see opportunities for himself and for others.
And our vision must not be just about making sure our children can be gainfully employed in the future, but that they spend the formative years of their lives in an environment where their characters are properly moulded by teachers of the highest quality.
Our generation, and the generations to come, deserve to have nothing less when it comes to quality education.
Now that we've got that spelt out with a comprehensive blueprint of strategies and outcomes, every effort must be taken to ensure that effective implementation follows suit, and the return on investment on taxpayers' money.

Women in Praise of the Sacredby Jane Hirshfield
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Enheduanna(ca. 2300.B.C.E.)"
Enheduanna is the earliest identified author of either sex in world literature. Daughter of the Sumerian king Sargon (whose domain lay in what is now southern Iraq), she was a high priestess in the service of the moon-god and moon-goddess, Nanna and Inanna. A number of Enheduanna's hymns have survived on cuneiform-inscribed table is, and her portrait was found on a limestone disc during excavations of the city of Ur.
The Nin-me-sar-ra, excerpted here, tells the story of a time of political unrest when Enheduanna was cast into exile. Although the priestess appealed first to the god Nanna for help, it was his daughter Inanna who ultimately restored her to her fightful position; while other material about Inanna (see pages 8-10) depicts a goddess of eros and fertility, this hymn praises the moon-goddess primarily for the fierceness that accompanies her power and beauty. The hymn is believed to describe a shift in Inanna's rank to a higher position within the Sumerian pantheon, as well as a shift in power relations between human rulers. It is also the sole representation in this book of the fierce female energy found in spiritual traditions throughout the world. In figures ranging from the Hindu destroyer-goddess Kali to the Hawaiian Pele, we see how this destructive goddess-energy creates a necessary balance--for if the entrance to life is through the maternal feminine, the gates of death (dependent on prior earthly existence) must also he an aspect of engendering female power. There can be no genuine beauty or harmony that does not acknowledge the opposite powers of anger, fierceness, and destruction, the plot of this hymn tells us: a true spiritualityincludes all of life's aspects, not only those we find pleasing or simple.""from"The Hymn to Inanna
Lady of all powers,
Like a dragon,
In the forefront
It was in your service
What once was chanted of Nanna,
0 my Lady,

Chapter Four
The first thing she noticed when awareness slowly seeped back into her brain was that she was lying on some sharp, stinging gravel. The second thing was that she was very cold. With a moan, she rolled over, squinting in the grey half-light. The Master sat a short distance away, his knees drawn up to his chest as he tried to shake off the effect of the Gate.
"Welcome to The Matrix," he said wryly. "Are you all right?"
"I'm fine."
Carefully, she sat up, her head spinning dizzily. They appeared to be atop a flat-topped rocky hill of some sort.
"Yeah? Well, you nearly got us both killed, dithering about like that!" he said wrathfully. "Leave it to a woman!"
Tejana thought back to the moment when he had opened the Gate. The eerie feeling of dread seemed to have vanished for now, but the memory of it still troubled her.
Something else was also niggling at her. "Back at the Gate..." she said quietly. "You called me Ana. My mother used to call me that."
He shrug

Chapter Five
She was in pitch black darkness, lying on a narrow metal cot. Her arms were secured behind her head, heavy manacles encircling her wrists and chained to the wall. She was wearing only a thin, inadequate shift and she was cold. Her stomach rumbled, as though she had not eaten for days.
A small part of her, sane, adult and rational, recognised that this was a nightmare, the same one which had plagued her over and over for more than half her life. With a feeling of dread, she waited for it to play itself out yet again, painful and unstoppable.
The rest of her remained the stubborn, wilful, terrified near-child she had been back then, determined not to give in, no matter what.
The cell door swung open, as it always did, the bright light blinding her. Two guards entered, released her manacle chain from the wall, and marched her out of the cell, down the corridor to the Punishment Room.
Councillor Rohan was waiting for her, as he always was. A younger Rohan, t

Chapter Six
Tejana woke slowly and luxuriously, feeling completely rested. For a second, with her eyes still closed, she thought she was in her bedroom on board the Doctor's TARDIS. But then, under her ear, she heard the steady pulse of a double heartbeat, so similar to her own. With a start, she realised her head was pillowed on the Master's chest. He was not yet awake, his face serene in repose. In his sleep, he held her against him closely, both arms wrapped firmly around her. Tejana felt the tingling awareness stir deep inside her and the temptation was strong just to lie there and enjoy the sensation of his hard body against the length of her own.
Then the memory of her dream the previous night began to filter back to her. She sat bolt upright, tearing herself away from him, and punched him heavily in the shoulder.
He came awake with a roar of protest. "What the hell was that for?"
"You were in my dream last night!" she hissed angrily. "What did you do to me?"

Chapter Seven
The Tower loomed above them, rising obsidian-dark into a sky still tainted with the sick, green light, its peak crowned with the distinctive crescent shape, the legendary symbol of Rassilon. Dark clouds still boiled overhead and the crimson lightning still danced, but the flaming fire bolts had finally ceased, enabling the two Time Lords to reach their objective at last.
Tejana stared numbly up at the forbidding monolith. She was still stunned by the enormity of what she had allowed to happen between herself and the Master. When Time Lords mated, it was a much more intense experience than any human could ever understand. More than just a physical union, it was a complete fusion of body and mind. Every cell in her body felt alive and yet, paradoxically, fully sated. She couldn't comprehend it. He was the Master. How could something so fundamentally wrong feel so totally and unalterably right?
She stole a glance at the Master as he stood beside her, his f

Chapter Eight
Tejana took a deep breath and gathered her courage. She had begged the Master for his touch, but she would never beg him for her life. Proudly, as a Time Lady should, she raised her chin and looked her death in the eye.
His brown gaze locked with hers for an endless moment, his expression unreadable.
Then, without warning, he began to laugh wildly, the insane, manic merriment she had heard so often on board The Valiant. A shiver wound itself up her frozen spine. When the Master laughed like that, he was truly frightening.
Even Rassilon seemed taken aback, his eyebrows drawing together in a frown. "My Lord Master, our time grows short. What is your answer?"
The laughter ceased abruptly. "My answer..." the Master said, his tone as venomous as a deadly snake. "....is no!"
The shock of his words was so great, Tejana almost stopped breathing. A wave of disbelief overwhelmed her. Survival had always been the Master's prime directive. How was it possible for h

Chapter Ten
Tejana was in the Zero Room for three days, reclining astonishingly in mid-air, as though on an invisible bed. The Doctor had explained that this was one of the properties of the Zero Room, the complete absence of furniture contributing to the aura of absolute peace.
"Will she need to regenerate?" Jack asked, restlessly wandering up and down the console room while they waited.
"I don't think so," the Doctor answered, using his sonic screwdriver to fiddle with a tangle of circuitry. "Or she would have done it by now. Physically she seems fine, apart from that burn. I think it's an extreme form of shock. Hopefully the Zero Room will sort that out."
When at last Tejana appeared at the console room door, they were relieved to see that her eyes were lucid once more.
"Doctor! Jack! Whoa, what hit me?" she exclaimed clearly in English. Limping painfully, she moved forward to join them, looking like a little girl in her too-big pyjamas and her hair loose down her
