When we finally finish up I feel quite dehydrated, so we get dressed and go down for breakfast. The smell of freshly baked biscuits greets us as we make our way into the kitchen. Grim motions for me to have a seat at the table across from his mother and he goes to get us some food.

She is smiling at me from ear to ear, I swear if she was smiling any wider she would crack her face. Her eyes shine like lights from within, "I was beginning to think that he had no interest in women. I guess he just hadn't found the right one. I suppose come the end of the world your choices are limited."

As soon as I realize what she was referring to I feel the blood rush to my cheeks. I lower my head toward the table and she reaches out to take my hand. "Don't be embarrassed, down here everyone knows everybody else's business. I am just thrilled he has found someone. It always makes a mother happy to know that her child will live a happy life, especially when she is as old as I am."

I feel as Grim comes closer, as if it is a sixth sense. I feel his movement across the room and know when he is behind me before I can hear him. He places a plate and glass of water in front of me then sits beside me. He makes sure when he sits down to run his hand down my back. I shyly look up at him and he sees my reddened face, he quickly turns to his mother and glares at her. "What did you say?" I sense the annoyance in his voice.

"Only that I am happy for you, son. You have never shown interest in these things before, just know she is fragile. Please, handle her with care." She bluntly states.

"Why would you say that mother, I have never treated anyone poorly." He interjects.

She shakes her head. "How soon you forget. Just a few days ago you treated her as if she were the Tutelary personified, no better than you would a piece of junk equipment."

"I see. This is different than anything I have ever been part of. Please know that. She is more than I could have ever imagined." He explains to her and I feel my heart flutter as he speaks. "I... I am in love with her."

____________Sexual Warning___________

I can feel his emotion welling up inside of him. I can feel the passion with which he speaks, I can see in his thoughts where he is reliving the events of last night and this morning. I am once again becoming wet as he is thinking of things that he has not even attempted with me yet. I can feel the pleasure rising up within me. He stops speaking and turns to me, he can feel this too.

He reaches down and grabs himself, and acts like it was just an itch. I know his pulse has sped up just like my own and I know that he too just made quite a mess inside his clothes. He looks at his mother and with one look dismisses himself, takes my hand in his and we rush back to his room. "What was that?"

"I saw your thoughts and well, your thoughts were very detailed." I smile nervously.

He nods his head as he removes his clothes, "Yes, they were." He takes me in his arms once again.

__________End of Sexual Content_______________

It is not long until we are unknowingly in the company of his mother. She clears her throat announcing her presence. We quickly stop touching one another pull the blanket up over our naked bodies. She shakes her head and walks further into the cave. "What the hell just happened in there?"

Grim starts to answer and I shake my head cutting him off. "It was me, somehow I saw into his thoughts as he was speaking to you. I tried it with the female soldier, when you and the elders walked in on us that is what I was doing. I figured that it was because we both have microchips and are connected to the mainframe. I don't understand how I did it with your son, I felt his strong emotions when he was speaking to you. They just emanated from his form and drew me in further. I saw what he was thinking and suddenly I was in his thoughts. I couldn't control my feelings and suddenly I was... excited, as was your son."

"Telepathy, plus the telekinesis, Phoenix you have more than excelled at mental tasks that could only be dreamt of. No one has ever managed to actually physically prove they had these abilities. Oh trust me there are plenty who can succeed in convincing parlor tricks but just now, the reaction you drew from Sebastian... All I can say is wow, what else can you do?" She seems to look for more words but cannot find any, so she just sits down on the floor across from us and cradles her head in her hands.

"I really don't know. I actually am fearful, of what this could mean. I shouldn't be able to do these things." I sit up pulling the blanket to my chest. Leaving the sheet behind on Grim, I walk over to Sharon as I wrap myself in the blanket. "This changes, my plan. I don't need the soldiers. I just need to get inside one of their domes. I can finish this war, without anymore innocents dying. I just need someone to watch my back and the boy. If I fail, my life is forfeit anyway."

"I don't understand." She looks up at me.

"I hardly understand myself, but I am not just talking to you right now. I am searching through documents and learning things, too fast. I think my head will explode." Suddenly I am dizzy and sit at her side before falling.

I look up and Grim is rushing over to me, already wearing pants. When did he get dressed? I think as I fall back into his arms.
