Although we all made it back safely, our mother was pissed. She didn't want us taking risks, but we weren't going to let this be her problem alone.
"I know you four are adults and very powerful. But I want you to also be more prepared," Nathan spoke.
"I don't want them going there again."
Euphoria did not want to compromise on our safety. All she sees is her children no matter our age.
"Mom, we can handle ourselves. I promise we are aware of the dangers when we go on our missions."
Ethan spoke on our behalf as he usually does. The worry in our mother's eyes caused me to understand.
Ares, who is very sensitive when it comes to our mother, walked over to her as she sat. He kneeled down and held her hand.
"Mommy, we know you are worried, which is more reason for us to always be ready for whatever comes our way. We would never want to bring you grief. We just need you to not only see us as your children but also warriors who will kill anyone who threatens your well-being."
Her eyes began to water as she touched his cheek.
"I don't want to lose my babies."
We all smiled at her reference to us. Her name may have changed, but Imani James still controlled her heart.
"We know, Mommy." Amadi kneeled next to Ares.
"Will you trust the men that you have raised?"
Ares wiped her tears.
"Yes, I will, and I am very proud of you all."
One by one, we all comforted our mother, and I felt she was now at ease.
After we cleaned ourselves up and had a meal, we met in the great room to discuss the prior mission. We did research on the beast from underground and were given information on the witch coven.
The witch that possessed Camille was from the Demented Forest and her name is Madam Celeste. Her history with Ecstasia goes back over forty years.
The witch sisters that Nathan killed were not related to her but still of the same coven.
"I wonder why she didn't show herself after her threats," I thought out loud.
"Maybe she's waiting for the queen to show up."
"That could be true, but she would be better off possessing someone like before or coming here herself," Ethan said.
We felt the usual energy when King Hasani was around. Amadi stood to greet his father. Then, both took their seats.
"I was told you all went into the Demented Forest. Did you run into Celeste?"
"No, she didn't show.."
Hasani sighed. "She is waiting for your mother to come on her own, but that's not happening."
"Should we wait her out?" Ethan asked.
"That would be the best case scenario. There's no way I'm letting Euphoria into that place...alone or not. We're not risking her safety."
We all agreed and got up from the table. But before we could leave, King Hasani spoke to Amadi.
"When are you going to introduce me to Judy?"

Shamika and I have been seeing each other for almost a month. Where she worked wasn't a problem for me, but I knew after she broke up with her ex, it could become one.
She insisted she would be fine, and I left the option open for her to quit whenever ready. I could definitely take care of her with no problem.
I made a reservation for us at one of my favorite restaurants. My confirmation text was sent to let her know I was on my way to her place.
I'm ten minutes away.
I'm ready, baby.
Reading her text made me excited, and I knew she was going to look good.
I entered her gated community and already sensed something was off. Shamika thinks I don't know her ex is a felon and is heavily involved in illegal activities.
She was so worried that I may run into him and feared for my safety, but neither had a clue of what I am and come from. I pulled up to her nice home with the colorful flower garden and outside decorations.
As soon as I got out of the car, she opened the door. I was not disappointed, but then again, am I ever when it came to her? No.
"You look so good, baby." Shamika smiled, then bit her bottom lip.
She was always vocal at complimenting me, which I wasn't used to. I kissed her lips while holding her in my arms.
"We have a reservation, sweetheart. Don't want to be late."
"Can I get a quickie before we go?"
I smiled, wanting to take her up on her offer.
"Baby, you know I really don't like quickies."
Shamika closed the front door and kissed my lips like she hadn't seen me in years. I squeezed her ass, causing her to moan.
"Fuck it."
I pushed her towards the sofa and bent her over in front of me. She wasn't wearing panties and must've known I would give in. She put one leg on the arm of the sofa, and it took no time for me to pull out my erection. I thrust myself inside her.
"AHH YES!"
"Mmmm."
I groaned at the wet tightness. She was starting to move away from my strokes.
Smack!
My hand slapped her soft ass cheek. "No running."
"Ares! I'm-I'm sorry, baybeee..." She whined.
I kept a steady pace but the sound of her moans made me fuck her harder and faster.
"Baby, I'm there! I'M THERE!" Shamika squeezed the arm of the sofa.
"Mmm fuck..."
I pulled out as her legs shaked. My cum covered her ass while she fell to her knees.
"D-Damn, I forgot your quickies do damage." She breathed heavily.
I smiled at her words while putting myself back in place.
"You better get cleaned up so we don't be late."
"Okay, baby."
She went to the downstairs bathroom and cleaned up. Within minutes, she walked back out, then put on her heels. I used the restroom after her and kissed her lips when I walked out.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!
She looked surprised. "Who is it?!"
"Come on, Mika. Open the door."
Her eyes widened as she looked at me.
"It's Levi."
I smiled and took a seat on her sofa.
"Let him in."
