Queen of the Lake

The Lake was his life, until Fate stepped into his path.The Queen of the Lake ruled her life, until she found a man strong enough to fight for her heart. Ever since First Mate Samuel Pyke climbed out of the engine room on his way towards the captain's seat, he dreamed of two things: a command of his own and a woman to love. As a half-human Otherworld emissary, Bedi didn't often move in the world of men, and navigating around steel-hulled freighters carrying bulk iron was fraught with danger for her kind.  But Captain Wigner of the Frederick Mithun owed the Queen of the Lake a debt forty years due, and the Queen sent Bedi to collect.  An easy task, until the First Mate stepped between her and her goal. Two different worlds.  Two different people, equally determined, equally strong willed. Equally vulnerable. Could their growing attraction become a love strong enough to turn the future's course? Or would their different worlds tear them apart forever? The choice belonged to Sam and Bedi, and they would pay the price of it together, or forever alone
