Chapter 07:
I awoke to my stomach contracting painfully. I barely got to my bathroom, before my stomach contracted hard enough to send what was one in out, up and out of my mouth.
What left like and hour later, I was picked up, and put in a warm shower. Clothes and all. Nex held me as my stomach contents made its way down my body and into the drainage system. After he stripped both of us of the little clothes that we had on, we washed each other.
He even helped me dressed, because my muscles twitching enough to interfere with my coordination. He carried me to the kitchen while he was stark naked, mind you. I heard the doorbell ring and I watched as Nex walked to the panel that controlled our 'front door'. "It's your parents. But someone is behind them. Someone that they know."
I sighed. "Get dressed love. I got a feeling I will be needing you with me. So, unlock the door. The next time they ring the bell, the stairs would descend."
Nex nodded and I watched as he unlocked our 'front door', then ran silently to our room. I heard the bell, then a squeal. I saw mum and dad walking up the stairs, but my eyes were on the person behind them. Arland. He was Anastasia's twin brother. He never did anything without his sister's permission though. People, myself included, believe that they sleep together when the pickings are slim.
"Beautiful Tarnya, how are you?" He bent to kiss my hand, and I heard Nex let loose a feral growl as he stormed up to me. He ripped me from my seat, rather gently, and put me on his lap.
"What do you want Arland? You are not invited into my place." I said gesturing around me.
"Why would you kick him out? He wants to try and make amends for his sister! Now don't be too arrogant!" My mother said.
"I am not arrogant! I just don't like him! If I don't like him, I don't like him and nothing is gonna change that. So now, tell me why you're all up here, when my stomach is threatening to push everything in it, up my throat." I said, swallowing rather heavily.
"I was able to find something's from your grandparents. They stated in there wills what you would get." Mum handed me an envelope. I opened it and just about pissed myself laughing. It seemed that the land I bought, though surrounded by woodland, that my pack village is being built on, was sold to me, because it was left in my father's parents will. It seemed like I was the owner or half the freaking town. But I heard that grandma, she would have, people called them episodes, but later called them visions after many of episodes came to pass. I had seer in my bloodline.
I smiled. I even have an apartment block a couple hundred meters away from my town hall. I smiled as my mind grew with possibilities.
First thing on my agenda was a snoop around of the apartment block. One apartment at a time. I was so wrapped up in my own mind that I only snapped out of it when I felt Nex growl.
"I am the only one other than her father, her siblings and our children that would be allowed to be as close to Nya as you want to be. So no. I will accompany her, she is my mate after all, and I will keep her away from the likes of you!"
Then an argument broke out. Words were flying every which way. "People! Do you all want me to stress? So I lose my babies?!" I screamed out angrily.
All but one said no. Nex had Arland by his throat. Before long, the full story came out. Dad thundered down the stairs and demanded, in his alpha voice, to have Anastasia come to him immediately! As in right that second.
Anastasia came streaking into the room, stark naked, cum dribbling down her inner-thighs. When it became clear that her plan was found out, she trembled away from my father, but she shot me poisonous looks. "What should I do with you?" Dad murmured to himself. "Should I exile? Should I lower your ranking in the pack?" He was gonna punish both Anastasia and Arland.
"Dad, I have an idea." I said aloud. He shot me a look. "Why don't you make it that they can't have sex with anyone other than their mate. If their mate rejects them, than they can have sex only once a week."
Dad laughed. He told her her punishment and shuddered as it settled over her. She glared daggers at me. Arland looked rather forlorn, rather sad. Dad dismissed them and turned to me. "Looks like I need to push you out the door to let you check out the apartment block. I know you wanna do it, but I am gonna make sure my pack can make a simple breakfast for themselves today."
I smiled, hugged dad, and Nex picked me up. He carried me to his car. I didn't care that I was in a maxi dress and flip-flops. He wore similarly casual clothes. We got to the apartment block, it looked in decent shape, but I wasn't gonna take a chance with lives of children that I felt would be living here. So I was on the phone calling a top notch building inspector. She told me that someone would be out in the next day or so. But when I said that I wanted done in the next day or so, I was told otherwise, but when Nex took my phone from my hands, after he spoke with them, one would be out to see the structural integrity of the apartment block was top notch.
I walked around, saw an old office block attached, I used the skeleton key mum gave me and I went snooping while Nex went looking around with the building inspector. I saw that the one places were bought off one by one. In return, a home of equal value to the apartment was given to the tenant of that apartment.
I gathered all the documents, put them away in there place and I started to dust the place down, as much as I could anyways, with my bare hands. My hands were blackened with greasy dusk and I was sneezing up a storm.
I walked out of the building, and I washed my hands using an outside tap. They weren't completely clean, but they weren't black either. They were more of a grey. I kept sneezing though, which was a pain in the ass, but I walked outside, locking the door behind me. The sneezing continued, but it slowly declined into non existence.
"Honey!" I heard Nex shout out to me. He came jogging around the corner, a rather pretty lady was behind him. She didn't look all that interested in my Nex though, which was a good thing for her. "She said that the apartments might need a little maintenance and we would need to call in certified plumbers and electricians and such to make sure that the utilities are all in working order." He hugged me closely.
I smiled at him, happy, and I turned to her, shaking her hand as I thanked her for being so quick and thorough. I had gotten that impression from Nex. "Thank you for coming out so quickly!" I felt the same sort of odd zing as I had done earlier that day. I pushed the thought to the back of my mind to ponder later. "I am so happy you were able to do this!" I was thinking of throwing a massive party to say thank you to all the people that helped me make our pack grounds, and this party would be double as a welcome home party.
I got her number, telling of her of why I wanted her number. When we got back, I gathered all the other workman's numbers so I could contact them. They liked the idea. Free food. But they were looking forward to coming to see how the places they are almost finished building, as finished products!
We went back home, but when we did, my good day went south! For you see, Anastasia was standing out the front yard waiting for me. How did I know? Because they whore threw the door on my side open and dragged me out by my hair. The physical fight that ensued, was short lived, if nothing else. I could feel a rage so dark that something in me awakened. Later that night, Nex told me something. He told me what I said.
I had said, "I can and I will destroy someone.
"When my skin comes in contact with your, a trace of my essence is left to manifest as I see fit. If I want you dead, you would be. If I want to torture you, you would be begging for the sweet release of death.
"So in essence, when I touch you, skin to skin, I own you! So stay on my good side!"
But the thing is, my voice was deeper, darker and more powerful than even my father's Alpha command. But what was freakier, was what I did as I spoke. I just about killed her! Her bones were broken almost into a not so fine powder. She's alive, but in serious pain, so much so, they had to put her into a medically induced coma so that she wouldn't feel the pain!
So as you can tell, my father's pack avoided me like I had the freaking plague or something. But at least I had time to myself now. Although I still had to cook for them. But I will tell you one thing, after that, only one adult, or young adult came up to me and asked me to be her friend. So now I have a new friend, and she said that she wanted to learn how to cook, because she wanted to cook for her mate when they found one another. So I thought what the hell. So from that day forward, Diamond Ruby Carlson became my apprentice. But again I felt that weird little zing.
