Strong One

Chapter 9 Together

Ryker POV

I suck in a breath and hold it, waiting for Griffin to reply "why would I mind.  I get two.  One, two" he says pointing to each of us "to love me" he finishes.  I let out my breath and breathe easier.  I have something, inside that feels as though its," Griffon pauses as he thinks of the right word. "Clawing inside to get out" he says.

"You were practically shifting, when neither of us were holding you" E tells him. "You are a big creature?" he asks E.  "Yes, I'm a dragon.  We have to keep that to ourselves, as not all the pack know about me" E explains.

"I am a wolf shifter as are the rest of the pack.  Our pop, is also a dragon shifter, but has a female wolf also. Mated to our dad, who is a wolf shifter.  You were created and we are not sure what you shift into.  But we think we saw a lion and an eagle" I explain also through the link.

"I like this head talking.  It distracts me from the clawing" Griffin says

"We should take him to the clearing and see if he can shift.  It would help settle his animal side" I say to E.

"So, the people that created me. Don't have the ability to shift into a creature?" Griffin asks I shake my head "probably not. Our parents freed a number of shifters from a lab, before we were born.  So, maybe it has something to do with that?  I don't really know.  But if you can remember where you escaped from. Then we can go back there and deal with the people who hurt you" I assure him.

"I want all their heads!" he answers very seriously out loud. "Ethan here can turn them into ash with his dragon's fire" I whisper. Griffin tilts his head as he regards E. "You store fire inside you?" he asks and moves so his face is close to E's.  He pulls his mouth open and looks down his throat.  E pull's back and chuckles "my dragon can. It's part of his magic" he explains.

"Right, we should take Griff to the clearing and see if he can shift. That should buy us some time to talk to our parents and figure out the best plan of attack is. Obviously, they have forgotten the warning pop sent them years back" I suggest using the link as I don't want to be over heard.

"I agree, we have stairs leading from our deck. So, we can use them to take our mate to the clearing. Soren will cloak it so we won't be disturbed" E agrees. "Griffin, do you feel hungry?" I suddenly ask remembering we have not fed him. His stomach rumbles loudly. Right go with E to the bathroom he'll show you how to use the shower.  I'll make us something to eat" I offer, climbing from the bed and pulling on some shorts.

"I liked looking at your body, especially your penis, cock, stick, dick. Why is, there so many names for it?" Fin asks looking a little confused.  I feel quite good about our mate liking the look of me naked. "People like to make up names for things. E and I usually call it cock" I tell him.

"But the proper name is penis?" he questions.  I shrug look at E and smile  as I leave the room. Knowing E will explain things to him.  "Well thanks Ry" I hear him mutter and hold in a chuckle as I start to root around and figure out what to make for us to eat.

I hear E taking Fin into the bathroom.  I decide its best to make a full English as shifting needs lots of energy.  I half cook the sausages and bacon in the microwave then move them to the oven to brown and finish cooking.

I find some hashbrowns in the freezer and put them in the oven. I mix half a dozen eggs and then add in some herbs, salt and pepper before pouring it into a large frying pan. I add some chopped ham and then cheese before placing the pan under the grill. I then make 6 rounds of toast, some tea and pour out three glasses of OJ.  I lay the table and then hear E and Fin move to the closet.

"Why do I need 2 pairs of shorts?" I hear Fin ask, E laughs "no, these are underwear, we call them boxes and the other one is shorts" he explains, as I check the food cooking. "Going to be ready in 5" I call. "But Ry only pulled on shorts?" Fin argues "He will put both on after we've eaten and he's gotten a shower" E explains patiently.  

I hear Fin sigh. But then hear rustling as he pulls on the clothes. "What am I meant to do with my cock?" I hear Fin ask. I can't help but chuckle as I hear E explain that he needs to feel what side he prefers it on. Then telling him to look at how he is wearing his underwear.

"I feel better without the underwear!" Fin replies "but Ry and I would hate for anyone to see your cock dangling from your shorts or being seen when sitting" E explains. "Why? It's just a cock all males have them" Fin questions.

"Okay, think about someone seeing Ry and I naked or shirtless and then that person looking like they'd like to have sex with us?" E asks. I hear a bang and E chuckle "I'll wear the underpants. You put on clothes that will cover you" I hear Fin growl.  A few minutes later, they walk into the kitchen, fully dressed.

"You have to get dressed too!" Fin says eyeing my bare chest. "Come on, foods ready" I say bringing two full plates to the table.  E sits and Fin copies him.  When I bring my plate to the table and sit also. I notice Fin looking at the food and sniffing it.  E and I start to eat and then Fin opens his mouth and bends towards his plate to eat it straight from the plate.

E stops him by putting his hand on his head. "Did you not get knives and forks to eat?" he questions him.  He looks at E, with his head tilted and we can see him going through, what he's learnt from us and then looking at the knife and fork.

"I'll get you a spoon, it will be easier to use" I say getting up. Fin picks up a sausage and puts it in his mouth whole.  Then starts to bounce a little on his seat as he chews. I come back with a spoon and show him how to scoop up his eggs.  As he eats some bacon and bounces in his seat.

"You like?" E questions as his bouncing becomes a little bigger.  He nods and uses the spoon and his fingers to eat the scrambled eggs.  He nods as he carries on eating and smiles. "I've only had mushy food. This taste's great and I can use my teeth" he tells us happily.

I look at E and see the same identical anger cross his face. "We'll find them and stop them from doing this to anyone else. We need to talk to our parents" I link him. He closes his eyes briefly and takes in a deep breath.

"I escaped from a place that seemed so much different than here.  Here you have tree's, grass and water. There, I saw nothing but dirt and what I think you call sand" Fin tells us eyeing the food I still have my plate.  I smile and push it towards him and he smiles back picking up the half-eaten sausage and popping it in his mouth.  Before he uses the spoon to scoop the eggs still left on the plate and a piece of bacon.

"How many days where you on the run?" E asks him. Again, we see Fin think about this "very dark, many times. Before I was cornered and captured" he tells us. "How long did the hunters have you?" E asks

"2 darkness's and then you came" he answers. "Which way was the sun?" I ask trying to think of ways to try and narrow down the possibilities. "I ran towards it until it rose. Then just kept on running."

"If we say he ran towards the West, that means he could have come from near the Mexican border?" I speculate. "If there was no greenery around the site he escaped from. I'd tend to think it was around Texas and New Mexico. Fin if I get a map and show you the area, do you think you'd be able to pin point it a little better? If you could think of anything like a mountain, or road you might have passed?" I ask our mate. "I passed a big road, had to run along it, until I could run across it.  Fast things, whoosh" Fin says and moves his both hands indicating that vehicles passed by.

"Did you see a sign?" E asks. Fin nods "I saw the number 10.  I know this number as the men holding me, repeated the number and I saw him enter it into his phone" he replies. "Interstate 10?" I question looking at E.   It run's not far from the border and through the desert" E agrees.

"Well, it's a start. I'm sure our parents would know, if there are any government buildings around there" E continues I nod and start clearing the table. As I walk into our bedroom going into the bathroom, I hear a knock on the door.

Then Fin runs into the bathroom and closes the door. "It's okay Griffin it's our parents. Let me just get a shower and then I'll take you out to meet them" I tell him as I step into the shower. "Your parents are both male? How where you created?" he asks me, sitting on the counter top and watching me carefully.
