Explorations with Gramps

Lacey

There are so many things that I want to do with roman. They're not all sexual, of course. Okay, maybe most of of them are... But it's not my fault! this boy/almost sorta a man is completely hot and he has some sort of switch that will always make my panties drop. I'm not making any sense, am I?

"And after you tickle Alpha Roman's branch, what happens next?" Clover asks in curiosity and wonder.

I tie two flower stems together and finish the tiny bracelet. Slipping it around her wrist, I answer, "well, usually with another guy, I'd continue bouncing on it, but with Roman... with Roman, I think I'd sap myself."

Clover nods, her eyes shining brightly in a daze. "Ah," she says.

"What in the world are you teaching Clover?" An old man gasps in fright, his his eyes shining brightly, but with fear.

My eyes snap open widely in fear also. My back straightens and i feel the tickles shooting up my spine as i feel the old man's presence inching closer. "Sir," I say... not knowing what to mutter in this sort of situation. I was teaching a five year old sex before being caught by a geezer, it doesn't get more crazy than that.

"Lady," Oldie nods, now standing next to the innocent Clover who gazes at us sweetly. "Or should i say, Vamp?" He randomly questions.

"Naw, man, there's no need. I'm not a Vampire, nope. Just a human, eating leaves." Humans eat that shit, right? I may not be fully mutant, but I'm still not so educated in Science or whatever.

"Alpha Nicholas, this is Lacey!" Clover hops up from the grass and points at me excitedly. "She's Alpha Roman's Mate!" She continues to shout.

The Wrinkle-Tinkle stares at me... checks me out? I know it's gross to say that 'cause he's old, but I'm so many years in front of him though. Wait, Alpha Nicholas... Alpha Roman... Alpha... "Damn."

"Language, young lady." Alpha Nicholas spits, placing both of his hands on each of Clover's ears. "Well, I shouldn't be scolding you for just that one word. Mate or not, why would you be teaching a child such a thing?"

Clover takes away those raisin fingers from her ears. "I asked, my fault," she sulks silently. Her lip puckers out and the dog seems to be doing the famous Poppy Dog trick. "I wanted to know all for Peddy." Not him again.

Finally, the geezer ends up being speechless as he stares at the little horny girl. "Okay..." he trails off unsurely. "Okay."

"Where is he anyway?" I interrupt the two. "I haven't seen him since our first encounter."

Alpha Nick holds back a sigh, looking over at my direction. "He's off with a group older than him in search of a hideout." He explains briefly. Turning back to Clover, Alpha almost brakes his knees by bending down to her level. "You should go back now, sweets. Your mother needs help picking real flowers. Not those weeds." He takes the "weeds" from her hands by the stem and throws them away. I cringe.

The little Angel runs along with a sower glare and leaves me alone with the Elder Wand. "You must be Roman's father." I state simply, watching him nod.

"Yes, yes I am. His mother and i have been worried sick for a while now." He says the words in a slightly harsh tone. The man's blaming me for this; you don't have to be a mind reader to figure that out yourself.

Playing along, i stand up and sigh. "Yeah, didn't he block the link or something?" Ooh, now i sound sassy.

"Yes he did."

"What a shame."

"He didn't even know."

"He's dumb that way."

Suddenly, our conversation is no longer a battle. In fact, the only one who's fallen victim is my Mate, and he's not even here.

"Follow me," I put away my thoughts and follow the Century Old guy. We walk around the yard, me listening to him and him explaining to me. We stroll around through the house, where he tells me everything about this old place. Finally, we find something older than him. (Minus me). "And this is the ballroom. I've set it up specifically for my son's return. But now realizing that he's found his life-long obsession, we'll also have a celebration designated for you, Lacey." Gramps tells me happily. I can tell he's happy that his son's come back.

After a few moments of silence, i begin talking. "Pardon me for asking, but where's your wife?"

Alpha Nick coughs lowly. "Uh, she's dead." He says, "I think."

"Huh? But didn't you say that both you and your wife were worried about Roman? And what do you mean 'i think'?" I begin to blurt out random words in shock, not being able to believe him.

Gramps rubs the back of his neck nervously, a light laugh flowing our of his mouth. "Well, you see... A few years ago, my wife went out to explore our new territory. She went out alone, and never came back." His expression changes from sheepish to sad. "I can sometimes hear her through the link... but I have no idea if it's really her or if I'm just going crazy."

Aren't Werewolf's supposed to go insane if their Mates die?

Lacey, you're being meddlesome, don't do it. I know, I know... this isn't right. But what if Roman's mom Ian really dead? I have to find her. I must.
