Author's Note:
This is a work of pure fantasy.
The story contains sexual activities and situations between a man and a humanoid cat-girl that are to be read only by readers above the legal age of consent. All characters having sexual relations are above the age of 18. Or whatever the legal age is on whatever planet they came from. All the character names, places are made up and not real.
Yes, the Ancient Alien people were right. This is Part 20 of a love story and more of a human male and humanoid cat-girl from another planet.
Also, for convenience and to keep the story moving, everything has been converted to English such as language, measurements and names, etc. etc.
As are most of the stories I've written and will write, if you're looking for story that goes, "They met, they had wild sex, the end" I would advise reading something else.
I still consider myself an amateur writer, so please take that into consideration when you read it. I write for my enjoyment and for the people that like it. And remember, this is pure fiction and fantasy.
If you don't like how and what I write, oh well. Don't read it. My feelings won't be hurt. For those of you that do like what I've posted so far, thank you and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I do writing it.
I tried to get this done before Yule/ Christmas as it's a sort of Yule/ Christmas kind of story. But I ended up having a house full of people over the holidays and couldn't finish it until now. I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks to all the fans of the Katja series, due to you, I was able to win third place in one of the contests. I was shocked when I got the email telling me I had. Again, thanks to all of you.

Once things died down a little, Erik smiled and put his arm around his mate. "I think your old crew misses you kitten."
Katja smiled, "I miss them also, it was nice to see them. I see some when we drop the kids off or pick them up, but not all of them."
Erik nodded, "That's only natural, it would be the same for me and Tony if we ever got together with our crew from our time in the Navy." He laughed, "Of course, it might be a little much if the kids were around."
Katja giggled, "Yesss, I remember when you saw Jim Neville that last time."
Erik laughed, "That's it exactly, but we did tone it down a bit, if it was just us, it might have been a little worse. And he wasn't part of our crew, he was just someone we knew. Trust me, it would have been a lot worse."
Katja (Part 20)
It was about a month later and just before Yule or the winter solstice. Tony had taken Ariel to the same dealer Katja had gotten her vehicle from and Ariel had finally picked out a vehicle, she got one similar to Katja's, but it was a dark red color instead of blue like Katja's. Now that they both had vehicles, they were both able to visit each other more often, and go different places enjoying being stay at home moms. Victoria had let Erik know that the meeting with the TV people would be after the holidays, they were still setting up the exact date. That was fine with him, it gave him more time to figure out what to tell them and get the files together. Geoff and Victoria were expecting the birth of their children anytime now, Erik knew when, but Bast had asked him not to say anything.
They were also planning a Christmas/ Yule party, mainly for the children. They would be having it on Yule, the twenty-first of December, as it fell on a Saturday. The kids were also on winter break and so far, it hadn't snowed yet. They never got all that much in the area, and what they did get was not a lot, inches wise. The most they got at one time was usually only three or four inches, enough to look pretty, especially to those that hadn't ever seen snow on home-world, but was also gone after three or four days.
Erik had explained to the children before this what the holidays were all about, both Christmas and Yule. They celebrated Yule in their household, but also the spirit of Christmas, and this year, he had to explain it to Aileen. She was still growing, but Brigit had told them she would slow down some time after the beginning of the year. She was walking and running around with her brother and sister now, as well as they did and she was almost as big as they were. She was completely on solid food now and like the others, she really loved pizza and the Chinese food they got every so often.
Erik and Katja had also started to teach her to read and other things. As she was still too young for regular school yet, they saw no reason to wait, and Katja began to homeschool her, as Erik called it, and like they knew she would, she picked up everything they taught her. Geoff had also taught her some things as she would ask what he was doing when he was working on some homework, so he showed her and explained things to her.
Aileen loved both her brother and sister, but Geoff was her favorite. Geoff loved being the "Big-brother" and helped his little sister as much as possible. This was fairly normal from what Erik had seen from other people he knew and Katja said it was like that with them also. Geoff loved his little sister a lot, after all, they both had the same mothers and Brigit had also asked Geoff to keep an eye on her and help her as much as he could.
The Christmas/ Yule party had begun at noon and like all the rest of the celebrations they had, it was about the same, but with different decorations, foods, and festivities. As this one was mainly for the children in town, they had started it with an explanation of what the holiday was all about, and how it was celebrated around the world. Erik had made up a slide-show to help explain it to them and the children loved it no matter the species. Even some of the human children from families that moved to the town learn some new things as he ran through the slides that showed things on Christmas, Yule, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and other celebrations held around their new world.
Erik smiled as he and Katja watched their Santa visit each table and gave each child a small gift. However, it was a bit funny to see Santa with a tail. Everyone was having a wonderful time, the food was great as normal, as was all the decorations that the volunteers put up.
They were sitting with all the rest of the family, talking and laughing and basically just enjoying themselves. Katja leaned in and whispered, "I wonder when Victoria will have the babies."
Erik smiled and looked at his watch, it was two-thirty and the winter solstice was about quarter after three this year. "Should be soon kitten, Uncle Geoff said they were going to the med-center since Vicky is only the second human, so I'd say it's about fifteen minutes before Bast warns them."
Katja smiled and kissed him on the ear, "I think they're right, you do know too much."
Erik laughed and told her, "And as I told Them on various occasions, it's more a feeling or intuition. But this time, I just happen to know when the solstice is."
They both felt a familiar warmth and sensed both Brigit and Bast smiling. Then, as he predicted, about fifteen minutes later, they saw Victoria go wide-eyed and wince. She leaned over and whispered to Geoff who got a grin a mile wide and they both stood. Geoff announced to the family, "We need to go, it's time."
Everyone congratulated them, and Erik walked over and said, "You guys go, I'll let Maya and Tom know." He hugged the man he thought of as a father and smiled, "Good luck, I can't wait to meet my new brother and sister."
Tears rolled down Geoff's face as he hugged him back. Then Erik hugged Victoria smiling, "Good luck "Auntie Victoria."
Victoria grinned, then winced again, "I'll get you for that. Maybe I'll slug you and blame it on the labor pains."
Erik grinned and kissed her, "I'll go tell Maya."
He walked over smiling and leaned down between Maya and her mate Tom. "It's time, Uncle Geoff and Vicky will meet you at the center."
Maya grinned, "I figured that was what all the noise was about." They got up and headed over while Erik walked back to the table.
Geoff took his mates arm and helped her out to their car. Since they knew they were so close, he had parked the car next to the hanger. He helped her in and they drove over to the med-center, meeting Maya and Tom at the entrance. Tom smiled as he said, "I called before we came over, they'll have everything ready once we get inside."
They nodded and the front doors opened as a grinning med-tech brought a wheelchair over for Victoria, then he wheeled her into the center with the rest following behind him. Tom asked Vicky how close she thought she was, and Vicky winced as she said, "Fairly close Tom, it should be very soon."
Tom nodded and smiled to himself. Since the day his mate had walked into the hospital he worked at, he had seen so many incredible things. He never knew then why he volunteered to come to New Lyonn, all he knew was that the most beautiful female he had ever seen asked and he was saying yes as quick as he could. He knew why now, as they had become mates, but he had also learned a lot of other things. He looked at his watch, and remembered the slide-show Erik had shown the children. He smiled as he remembered him saying that Yule, or the winter solstice was today at three-fifteen. "I'd say your right Victoria, you have about twenty minutes or so."
He felt warmth and a what felt like a hand, like Maya's, stroke his face. He wasn't sure what it meant, but it was wonderful and he felt elated when it happened. He shook his head and they walked into the birthing room.
Maya and himself usually didn't have much to do with births here, not like he normally had to do when he worked at the human hospital. He found that that the Lyonness never really needed any help and usually had their children at home with one of the mid-wives in attendance in case of problems. However, Victoria was only the second human to give birth, so for now, they thought it was better for them to have them here in the med-center just in case.
Geoff helped Victoria get undressed and onto the bed. Then one of the med-techs hooked up the sensors to her as Geoff opened her bag and took out a bottle of water for her. He stood beside her and stroked her face smiling at her. Victoria smiled back up at her mate, she loved him more than anything in this world, the best day of her life was the day she came onboard the ship to interview him, Erik and Katja.
She winced again and she watched her belly undulate as her children jockeyed for position. She and Geoff had been talking to them this last month, while that wasn't something humans normally did, the Lyonness did it to teach them and let them know who they were. She smiled and squeezed Geoff's hand, "I think it's time my mate." She grinned, then winced once more, "I think they've finally figured out who's coming out first."
Geoff grinned at his mate; he had fallen in love with her almost from the start. They had been trying so long to have children, at first, they thought they wouldn't. But on that wonderful trip they took at the last minute, it had finally happened. He leaned down and kissed her, then put his hand on her belly and sent out, "We're waiting for you my children, now please be careful and don't hurt your mother."
