The men had ask Hector out for a poker game on Wednesday night when he was on his way back to Althea's place the guys he ran in to the very day he set foot in to folks there were five of them one twice his size in body he walk on trying to avoid them he was sure if the serif had put them up to attack for he saw them in together more than once in town it didn't seems he was issuing a warrant for any of their arrest or waring them to stay in their corner as he had told him to do he has been staying in his corner for the eight weeks of being here, but serif seems to find him at all times telling him the same thing over again he told Althea about it she warn him to be careful he was doing just that so the group of men didn't mind that he was being careful they give him a beat down leaving him on the side of the road people look from their window but no one came to help except to close their windows, he manage to stumble his way back to Althea he wasn't sure if someone had call her but at two in the night when he got to the back porch she ran out to meet him,
"Oh my lord what happen to you, are you OK? Come" she said took him in her arms taking him to his room,
"Ooh!" Hector growl in pain as Althea rest him down and began to look after him,
"I'm sorry Hector its all my fault if it wasn't for me you wouldn't be hurting like this" Althea sob,
"I don't know why you believe its your fault miss Althea but its alright, he turn his head biting on his lip as the ice cramp through the swell to his side trying to not feel it so much the beating he received was mostly to his body and to his head the head has one burst probably from the kick he received inside he suffered a broken right arm and his side swollen with such tenderness Althea took care of him as she would her husband or son the frightening part of it was taking him to the shower and to be touching him in such places, she haven't have a man in such long time her feelings were acting up she pray for forgiveness but then stop for each time she pray to be forgiven she went back to feel the same thing again she was glad when his hand started coming around, one morning after she came back from dropping taiga at school she first check on him he seem to have been sleeping so she didn't bother him she was doing the dishes when she felt strong arms wrap about her waist and jump,
"Relax Althea I'm not going to hurt you I won't do nothing to you that you don't want,you trust me don't you?"
Althea nod her head she did trust him there was no reason not to he's been a gentle person especially to taiga who like him so much,his lips came to her cheek they felt cold as if he had kept them in the refrigerator or it was her that lost feelings he have them press to her skin like that none of them moving except for him getting an erection and poking her bottom, her body was shaking like it never before, the door at the front knock and she felt relieve Hector didn't move away from her till the second knock, he let her go but was still standing behind her "Althea after you put you son to bed tonight come see me in my room I'll wait for you there" he left and went back down the hall way Althea was still shaking when she open the door but forced a smile when she saw two of her church sisters at the door
