Chapter 65
***Chastity***
I woke up early the next morning. I planned to make my croissants one last time before I went back to school. Rowen was still sleeping soundly when I slipped out of his arms, grabbed clean clothes, and went into the bathroom. I looked in the mirror as I brushed my teeth, and thought about what happened last night. I found myself blushing when I remembered feeling him against my hip. Feeling that had made me uncomfortable, but curious at the same time. I’m glad he stopped kissing me when he did before I did something I might regret, like touch it.
With a shake of my head, I got in the shower. I couldn’t shake the memories from last night. One of the things that I was confused about was my reactions to everything he did last night. I am used to the sparks from his touch, and the warm feelings, but last night was different. I got the warm feelings again, but I also felt pressure build in my core, and I started to feel my panties getting wet. A part of me wanted him to touch me there, but I wasn’t any where near ready for that.
Once I was showered, and dressed, I tipped toed out of the bathroom. I found Rowen laying on his back, again with Lilac asleep on his chest. This time I snapped a picture on my phone before making my way down to the kitchen. I smiled when I saw Lucy making up the coffee.
“Good morning Lucy.” I said brightly as I grabbed my dough, and fruit fillings.
“Good morning Chastity. Making your croissants again?” Lucy asked as she started the coffee.
“Yes, and I’m trying two new flavors.”
“What flavors?”
“Peach, and cherry.”
“You haven’t tried those before?”
“No. Any time I tried something a little different with a recipe, it didn’t go well with Aurora.”
“Witch.”
I giggled, and got to work. We worked together well, and chatted a bit. She was telling me about how. excited Paula was about my craft show, and paint night ideas for her future shop when Naomi shuffled in. She looked grumpy, and tired.
“Wash up the dishes in the sink, and set the table please, Naomi.” Lucy requested.
“Why? That girl is here. It’s her job.” Naomi growled, pointing at me.
“That girl, as you just called her has a name. It is Chastity, and she is in the middle of cooking. It’s also NOT her job to wash dishes, or set the table. It’s yours. I asked you nicely once. I won’t ask again.” Lucy said firmly.
“But it is her job. It’s always been her job.”
“Not anymore it’s not, and it hasn’t been for awhile. It never should have been. She is not a slave, nor a servant. She is a member of this pack. In a pack everyone works together. She is working, so am I. Now it’s your turn. You have a job to do as a member of this pack. GET TO WORK!” Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“I am the Gamma Female! You do NOT tell me what to do! I tell you what to do! Both of you! You’re nothing, but disgusting Omegas! You do WHAT I SAY!” Naomi wailed.
“Not any more you’re not! You lost that position by acting like a criminal! Count your lucky stars Pete didn’t throw you out on your ass, and reject you for what you did! Get off your high horse, and get to work
before I have you scrubbing the showers in the men’s locker room after training has ended.” Lucy growled as she stepped up to Naomi.
I watched the scene with wide eyes, and a slight tremble. I didn’t know what to say or do. The tears in Naomi’s eyes caught me off guard.
“Look Naomi, I get it. I really do ok. Your parents were shit to you, and you feel like shit about yourself most of the time, but it doesn’t give you the right to treat others like shit because of how you feel about yourself. It’s not fair to them to pay for your problems. It’s especially not fair to Chastity. She was a pup, and was innocent, she still is. She shouldn’t have been the target for your self hatred. You did wrong, and acted against the laws. You know this. This is your punishment. I’m sorry you don’t like it, but consider yourself lucky. Remember where Aurora, and Fiona are, then look at where you are.” Lucy said gently, as she placed her hand on Naomi’s shoulder.
“But Aurora said….” Naomi said in a small voice as she sniffled.
“Aurora was wrong. Very wrong. She was also mentally unstable, jealous, and greedy. She filled your head with lies, and used your weaknesses against you. Jane protected you from her for a long time, but once Jane wasn’t around any more, Aurora took advantage of the damage your parents did to you as a pup.”
“You…you knew my parents, and how they were?”
“I did.”
“Oh.”
“Yeah. Now wipe your eyes, and get your work done.”
Naomi nodded, and moved to the cabinet to pull out the plates. When she left the room, I turned to Lucy.
“What was that?” I whispered.
“A little bit of truth.” Lucy responded, and got back to work.
Instead of asking any more questions | got back to work on my croissants. I was finishing the last batch when Braxton came barreling through the back door, causing me to jump. He bent over, and was
breathing heavily as he dropped his book bag on the floor. I watched him with wide eyes as he worked to catch his breath. Finally he stood up, and smiled at me.
“Thank Goddess I made it on time. I was so worried I was going to miss breakfast with Chas before she left I ran the whole way home.” Braxton said breathlessly.
“Here pup. Drink this before you pass out.” Lucy said as she handed him a glass of water.
He gulped it down as I still watched him closely. When he set the cup down he looked at me, and smiled.
“Good….good morning Braxton.” I said with a shaky voice.
“Shit Chas. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you. I just wanted to make sure I saw you before you left.” Braxton said quickly.
“It’s…it’s ok Braxton. You didn’t miss me. See?” I smiled at him, as my pounding heart calmed down.
“I do see, and I also smell. Something yummy! Are those your croissants again?”
“Yes.”
He jumped up and down, whooped. I raised my eyebrows then couldn’t help laughing at him.
“It is too early for all that noise. Who’s acting like a fool? I’m gonna sock him one.” Colby grumbled as he walked into the kitchen scratching the back of his head.
“Oh leave the pup alone boy. He’s just excited that your sister is making his favorite treat again.” Lucy stated with a snicker.
“Well can he be excited a little bit quieter please? Some of us haven’t had our coffee yet.” Colby growled.
“Here’s your damn coffee. Now get out the kitchen you grouch.” Lucy stated as she slammed his coffee cup down on the counter.
“Thanks Lucy. Morning Chas. Brax, just…uh shut up man.” With that Colby left the room.
I giggled as Lucy shook her head then chased Braxton out of the kitchen too. I giggled a bit more as I finished up the last of the croissants, and went to take them to the dining room. Braxton, and Colby were already at the table. I heard a bunch of people coming down the stairs just as I finished helping Lucy get the food on the table. Once everyone was seated, I looked around, and smiled. I had really enjoyed this week home, and it was all because of these people.
“So…um….thank you for making my visit home so enjoyable, and for being so welcoming to Lexi. It meant a lot to me. I hope you don’t mind, but I tried two new fillings for the croissants today. There is still apple, strawberry, and blueberry so don’t worry, but I wanted to try peach, and cherry this morning. Let me know what you think please.” I said with a smile at everyone.
“Peach? Did you say peach?” Alpha Joseph asked, brightening up.
“Yes.” I responded, confused.
“I love peach. Pass those over! I need to try one.”
I smiled as I grabbed the basket of peach, and handed it to him.
“I give me my cherry.” Molly singsonged.
“I already took that.” Jax joked.
“Jax! Not at the table.” Dimitri growled, causing a few snickers around the table.
When I realized what Jax meant I blushed, and looked at my plate. I heard Rowen chuckle quietly, and glared at him from the side of my eye. He just beamed at me.
“Rowen!” Jax growled, causing me to jump a bit.
“What? I didn’t do anything!” Rowen protested.
“You better not have or I’ll knock your teeth down your throat.”
“Jax! Knock it off!” Molly growled as I blushed even deeper.
“But babe….”
“Can it Mister or it’s the couch for you.”
“But…”
“Shut it or it will be a week.”
I giggled when I heard Jax whine. He sounded like a sad puppy. I watched as Jax whispered in Molly’s ear, and she giggled. They were so cute together.
“Now that they’ve settled that. Boys we only have two hours before we get on the road for our Alpha meeting. Unfortunately it’s a two day drive, which means we’ll be staying in a hotel. I’ve already made the arrangements. It also means that we won’t be able to stick around at Cloverland for long when we drop Chastity, and Lexi off. I’m sorry Rowen, but we’re on a pretty tight schedule.” Alpha Joseph said.
“I know dad.” Rowen grumbled, and pouted.
“Would it be easier for all of you if I took them back? I need to drop some paperwork off at Denu any way.
I can do it today, instead of Monday.” Colby offered.
“I hate to say it, but that would probably be best.” Alpha Joseph agreed.
“But dad….” Rowen started.
“I’m sorry Rowen. I hate to disappoint you, but with our tight schedule it may be the best thing.” Alpha Joseph said.
“I know. I get it.”
I was sad too, but if they had to be some where I didn’t want to be the one to hold them up.
“Do you mind if Mel, and I ride along Colby?” Molly asked.
“I’m good with that if they are.” Colby responded.
“I’m fine with that.” Lexi said.
“That works for me, and you two can hang out for a bit while Colby does what he needs to.” I said with a smile.
“I’ll be a few hours. I can join you all for dinner then we’ll head back.” Colby stated.
I was disappointed I wouldn’t get to ride with Rowen, but as the same time I was happy that Melissa, and Molly were riding with us.
“Once I’m dong eating I’ll go fuel up the SUV.” Colby said, and we nodded at him.
We all chatted until we were done eating. After the table was cleared I headed to my bedroom to pack, and straighten up. I was about to close my door when it stopped, and Rowen walked in. He looked really. upset.
“I….I’m sorry Rowen. I know you were looking forward to driving me back, but….” I started, but he stopped
“That’s not what I’m sad about.” Rowen said quietly as he took my hands in his.
“It’s not?”
“No sweet girl. I mean it is, but that’s not the main reason.”
“Oh. Then what is the main reason?”
“It’s hard to say goodbye to you Chastity. I know it’s the right thing for you, but it’s hard. I miss you when you’re not by my side. It also always feels like you’re happy without me around.”
“Rowen, I miss you too. Am I happy at school? Sure, but I would be happier if you were there with me. I don’t like it when we part, but I have to do this. I need to do this. It’s not forever either. It seems like a long time, but really is it?”
“I know you’re right. I just hate it sometimes is all. I’ve had a great week with you, and I’m not ready for it to end.”
“I’m not either, but even if I wasn’t going back to school today, you wouldn’t be here for a week any way. You have to go to the Alpha meeting.”
“Yeah. That’s true.”
“We’ll plan a weekend where you come stay at Cloverland soon, with me. Ok?”
“I’ll be there. I wouldn’t miss it.”
“I know. I hate to say this, but I need to pack.”
“Ok. I have to go grab you some shirts. I won’t be able to send you any this week.”
“Ok. Thank you.”
“You’re welcome sweet girl.”
He placed his hand on my cheek, and kissed me. It started out sweet, but quickly turned very passionate. I moaned softly as his tongue slipped into my mouth, and started to explore. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and pressed against him. The kiss was quickly getting out of control. Rowen was the first to pull back.
When I opened my eyes I saw him staring at me. I smiled at him, and he smiled at me. He was so wonderful. I was very lucky to have him, and I hoped when I came home I would still have him.
He kissed my forehead, and left the room, closing the door behind him. I sat on my bed for a minute, and just looked around. I didn’t have a ton to pack as I didn’t bring a lot. I finally got up, and started to collect the things I needed to repack. I was putting my folded clothes in my suitcase when my bedroom door opened, and Lexi walked in
“Hey.” I said smiling at her.
“Hey.” She said, and sat on my bed.
“Lexi, what’s wrong?”
“I’m happy here. Happier than I ever was at home.”
“Is that a bad thing?”
“Well no.”
“Then what’s wrong?”
“I want to join your pack, but it means leaving my family behind
“Not really it doesn’t. They’ll always be your family, and you all can visit each other
“True.”
“Is there anything else bothering you?”
“I…I’m not sure.”
“If you need to talk. I’m listening.” any time.”
“I…I don’t know. It’s been weird. You know my wolf has been angry, and hurt since Anthony did what he did.”
“I didn’t know that.”
“Yeah. I didn’t really tell any one. She thought Anthony was her mate, just as I did. She’s been angry, and hurt every since we found out he wasn’t.”
That’s got to be tough.”
“It has been. Thing is, around Colby she is calm, and seems like she isn’t hurting any more. She won’t really tell me why, but she enjoys his company. I do too. He makes me forget about Anthony, and what he did.”
“What do you think that means?”
“I don’t know. He makes me laugh too, and very few can do that.”
“That’s a good thing right?”
“Yes it is. I don’t know what to do or think.”
“Be friends with him for now, and see how things go. You were never really given a chance to get over what Anthony did because you were shipped off on that trip right after he did what he did. When you came back he was still playing his games, and you couldn’t really get away from him. Not being in the pack house any more has helped, but he is still contacts you, and bothers you. Give yourself some more time.”
Yeah Thanks small fry.”
“That’s what friends are for, right?”
“Yes they are.”
I smiled at her as I started to collect up Lilac’s toys.
“Do you need some help?”
“Can you check under the bed, and make sure none of her toys are under there please? Oh, and check the living room. I caught Jax a few times trying to teach her fetch.”
She laughed as she started to check for all of Lilac’s toys. I left the bag of the ones I collected on my bed as I went to get my journal, and the textbook I had been reading. I loaded them into my book bag. I was trying to make room in my suitcase for the glass pieces Rowen bought me when he walked in the room. There was sadness in his eyes, but he was smiling, and carrying a small duffle bag.
“Here are your shirts sweet girl.” Rowen said as he handed me the bag.
“Thank you. I’m glad you put them in this bag. I don’t have a lot of room left in my suitcase.” I said as I smiled at him, and took the duffle bag.
“I noticed that.”
“Can you help me strip the bed please?”
“Sure.”
He helped me pull the sheets off the bed. He didn’t think I noticed, but he stuffed my pillow case into his back pocket. I looked at him questioningly.
“You’re not the only one who sleeps better with the scent of their mate with them.” Rowen said with a chuckle.
“Should I send you my shirts too?” I asked with a giggle.
“Nah. This should do me for a bit.”
“OK.”
Once the sheets were in the laundry basket, I went into the bathroom to grab the towels, and bathmat. I also collected up my toiletries, and bagged them. I came out to find Rowen sitting on the bed, Lilac on his shoulder. I smiled as I watched him whisper to her. It’s only been a week, but I know I’m going to
miss watching him with her. I’m going to miss him. I’m just not ready yet. I need to be healed first. I need to be whole before I can accept a mate, even if it isn’t him some day.
I walked over to him, and sat beside him. Lilac instantly moved over to my shoulder from his, and nuzzled my ear, making me giggle. It always tickled when she did that. I looked around my room one last time to make sure I didn’t miss anything. When I was sure I didn’t, I sighed, and took Lilac off my shoulder. With a bit of a struggle, I got her into her harness. She hadn’t been in it all week, and obviously didn’t want to be in it now. Rowen chuckled at her spitting at me, and wiggling Once it was on 1 set her on the bed so she could roll around for a minute.
“You all set?” Rowen whispered.
“Yeah.” I responded, looking at my hands.
“You got everything?”
“Yes.”
“Are you ready to go then?”
“Yes, and no. Yes because I want to achieve my goal, and I can’t do that here. No because I’ll miss everyone.”
“We’ll all miss you too, and we are so proud of you.”
“I know. Thank you.”
“Come on. I’ll help you get your things in the car.”
“Ok.”
I picked up Lilac, and clipped her leash onto her harness then picked up my book bag, and purse. Rowen grabbed my suitcase, and duffle bag. He some how managed to attached the duffle bag with some kind of clip I hadn’t seen before. I had to admit it was convenient. Lilac climbed up onto my shoulder, and we left Jax’s apartment which was surprisingly empty. I followed Rowen out of the house where everyone was standing around talking. Goodbyes were quick this time with everyone else. After Rowen put my bags in the trunk of the SUV, he pulled me into his arms, and buried his nose into my neck. I did the same. His scent made my heart feel light.
“Goodbye for now sweet girl. I’ll call you tonight, ok?” Rowen whispered as he put his forehead against mine.
“Ok.” I whispered back staring up into his eyes.
“I’ll come see you as soon as I can.”
“Please do.”
“I will. I promise.”
I nodded against his forehead. He smiled sadly at me then gave me a hard kiss. Nothing too passionate as there were people standing around, but a good kiss just the same. Finally he released me, took my hand, and lead me to the back open door of the SUV, and I climbed in. He smiled at me one last time then shut the door. I waved to him as we pulled away. It had been a good week. I was a little sad that Tina. hadn’t had her baby while I was home, but that was minor compared to everything else I had to be happy. about.
“You ok Chas?” Molly asked quietly from beside me.
“Yeah. It’s hard to say goodbye, but this is the right thing for me.” I whispered.
“Yeah it is. As much as we all hate it, it definitely is.”
When we reached the edge of the pack territory we rolled our windows down, and howled at the wolves. waiting there. I didn’t recognize them, but it felt good to have them bid me farewell for now. For awhile we rode in silence. Lexi had ended up in the front seat next to Colby, Molly was next me, and Melissa wast sprawled out in the back. Lilac was curled up on my lap asleep.
“You know, I think Jax is actually going to miss that little runt.” Molly said with a giggle.
“What makes you think that? He hates cats almost as much as Colby does.” I questioned.
“He was entertained by her. So was his wolf, after he got over the annoyance of having a cat around him.”
“Don’t tell me he’s thinking of getting one?”
“Hell no. He’s wasn’t entertained by her that much. Also his wolf would definitely eat a cat. He threatened. to once or twice.”
“He did not!”
“He did. Jax talked him back down from it. Said it would make you hate him. That worked. Jax’s wolf is just as protective of you as Jax is.”
“Ross’s wolf didn’t know what to make of Lilac. He’s more curious than anything.” Melissa said as she leaned forward to join the conversation.
“Really?” I questioned.
“Yeah, but don’t worry we’re not getting one either. She is cute, but she’s still a cat, and typically wolves, and cats are a no go. You’re just special. Just like she is.”
“How does Duke feel about her?” Colby asked from the front seat.
“He calls her a furball, and is jealous that Leila and I are so attached to her. He keeps saying she looks like something he coughed up.” I responded with a giggle.
“Well I mean she’s small enough.” Colby chuckled.
“Oh haha. She’ll get bigger. Maybe not a whole lot bigger because she was almost starved to death when she was found, but she is still growing.”
“How big can a cat get, really?” Lexi questioned.
“Um….One of the mamma cats in the playground is about fifteen pounds, and her tail reaches my waist.” I answered.
“Well compared to you that’s not very big short stack.” Colby joked.
“Very funny Colby.” I grumbled.
“I thought it was.” He quipped, and I stuck my tongue out at him.
The rest of the drive we spent talking about basically anything. When we pulled into the Cloverland parking lot, I looked around. It looked like not many students had come back from break yet. That was fine with me. I didn’t feel like trying to weave around people in the halls. I clipped Lilac’s leash back on her, and got out of the car, with Molly, and Melissa behind me.
“Sorry girls, but I’ve got to leave you here. I need to get over to Denu. I called them after breakfast-this morning to let them know I was coming today. They set up a meeting for me with one or two instructors.” Colby explained as he got Lexi, and my bags out of the trunk.
“That’s ok Colby. Get to your meeting, and we’ll see you in a few hours.” I said, giving him a quick hug.
“I should be here in time for dinner.”
He hoped back in the car, and took off. Molly, and Melissa grabbed my bags before I could. Lexi had her own, and we made our way to our rooms. Lexi dropped her stuff off in hers than came right to mine. As soon as I had Lilac’s harness off she jumped right up into her window seat, and stretched out in the sun. I was about to unpack when Molly handed me a bag.
“More for your collection. Lexi I have some for you too.” Molly said as she turned, and handed Lexi a bag. I pulled out three new framed photos. The first one was of Rowen wrapped up in the streamers. It was in a wood frame that had the flag carved along the edges. I giggled, and move to the next one. It was of the four of us girls with our faces painted at the barbeque. It was in a wire rimmed frame with scroll work all around. I smiled, and looked at the last one. It was of Rowen and, I watching the fireworks. I was staring up at them, pointing, and smiling brightly, while Rowen was kissing the top of my head. The frame was the same as the one with him wrapped up in streamers. I loved it. It was a beautiful picture, but I didn’t remember anyone taking pictures that night.
“Molly, who took this picture?” I asked, showing it to her.
“Jax did. He wanted to capture the look of pure joy on your face. He grabbed my camera, and snapped a bunch of them. That one was my favorite.” Molly explained.
“I love it. Thank you. I love all of them really.”
“You’re welcome.”
“These are great Molly. Thank you.” Lexi said quietly with a smile on her face, and tears in her eyes.
“Can I see?” I asked, and she handed them to me.
The first one was the same as the one Molly gave me of the four of us girls, in the same frame. The second one was of Lexi, and me posing together while we were sitting on the blanket at the barbeque. It had the same wooden frame as mine. The third picture was of her and Colby laughing together at some point during the visit. That one had a silver brushed frame. The last one was of the eight of us taken. together during the barbeque. It also had the same wooden frame. They were great pictures. I handed them back to Lexi, smiled, and nodded.
“So what are we going to do now that we’re here and have some time?” Melissa asked.
“Well Norm, and Marcus will be here any minute, then we can decide. Be prepared though. Norm’s answer will be shopping.” Lexi said with a giggle..
“I could shop.” Molly said with a grin.
“Oh no. Not you too?” Lexi groaned.
“I don’t have to shop, but I’m not against it.” Molly sniffed.
“Is there something we can go do in the pack town for a bit?” Melissa asked.
“Hmmm….There might be something going….” Lexi was cut off by a knock at my door.
As she was sitting by it, leaning against my dresser, she reached up, and opened it for Norm, and Marcus. Norm burst in like the goofball he is, much to Molly, and Melissa’s enjoyment.
“Oh! A room full of women! This looks like trouble.” Norm giggled.
“Hi Norm. This is my sister in law Molly, and my other best friend Melissa.” I pointed to each of them.”
“Wait. I thought I was your best friend.” Norm whined than pouted.
I giggled when Marcus sighed, and rolled his eyes. Both males took a seat on the floor near Lexi.
“Norm my dear, Molly, Melissa, and I went through this days ago with Chastity. We are all equally her best friends.” Lexi said with a sigh.
“But…but…..I was here first.” Norm whined.
“Actually you weren’t. I was.” Molly stated.
“If you want to get technical. I was. Chastity, and I graduated together. We were officially introduced the night we graduated. Sorry Molly, but you showed up a week later.” Melissa said with a sniff.
“But I’m the great, and awesome Norm. I should be the bestest friend of all best friends.” Norm grumbled.
I flopped back on my bed, and groaned. These people were ridiculous. They made me laugh though. They continued to bicker for another few minutes, and I was laughing so hard my stomach hurt. Finally I sat back up, and looked around at all of them.
“Guys!” I called out, and they instantly quieted.
“Yes please Chastity. Save me from the dramatics.” Marcus grumbled, and I giggled.
“Here is how it is. You are all equally my best friends. No one is more important, or less important than the other. You all are special to me in different ways, and I love all of you the same. Ok? Does that make everyone happy?” I said looking at Molly, Melissa, Lexi, and Norm.
“Fine.” Norm huffed.
“Works for me.” Lexi said.
“I’m cool with that.” Molly agreed.
“Me too.” Melissa said.
“Hey. What about me?” Marcus grumbled, and we all laughed.
“Yes Marcus, you too.” I said with a giggle.
“Ok. I’m happy then. I was feeling a little left out.” Marcus smiled.
“Seriously?”
“Sure. Why not?”
“You’ve been spending too much time with Norm.” Lexi quipped.
“Um. Mate!” Norm squealed.
“Yes. Yes Norm. I know.” Lexi giggled.
“That reminds me, we’re doing a smallish, mating ceremony next weekend. Lexi, Chastity I really want you there please.” Norm pleaded.
“What does smallish mean?” Lexi questioned.
“If my family wasn’t so big it would be small.” Norm said with a giggle.
“That’s true.” Marcus stated.
“Wait. How big is your family?” Melissa asked.
“I’m an the second youngest of ten. I have four older brothers who are all mated, and have pups. I have four older sisters who are all mated, and now all have pups. I also have one younger sister. Thankfully unmated, and no pups.” Norm answered.
“Good grief. That is a big family.” Molly said, looking shocked.
“You’re telling me. I still have one sister, brother in law, and two nephews to meet. They’ll be here next weekend.” Marcus said with a smile.
“They all love you though.” Norm gushed, and kissed Marcus’s cheek.
“Yeah.” Marcus smiled, and pulled Norm close to him.
“Aww. They’re so cute.” Molly gushed.
“I’m still processing the ten pups thing.” Melissa said with wide eyes.
“My parents mated right out of high school, and had my oldest brother within the first year. The rest of us came every two years after that.” Norm said.
“I want to feel bad for your mom.” Melissa blurted.
“Most people do, but she just smiles, and says she thanks the Moon Goddess for everyone of us.” Norm stated with a smile.
“Sounds like you have great parents.” Molly said with a smile.
“They’re the best. Marcus’s parents suck, but the moment mom, and dad met him, they adopted him into the family. He tried the Mister, and Missus crap. Mom whacked him on the butt with her wooden spoon, and said none of that crap in this family. You’re one of us now so it’s mom and dad. I’m still not sure if Marcus was more shocked about the wooden spoon to his ass, or what she said.” Norm explained with at giggle
“The wooden spoon.” Marcus, and Lexi both said at the same time with a laugh.
“Really? With all of your…..” Norm started, but Marcus cut him off.
“Babe. I love you, but shut up. They don’t need to hear about any of that.” Marcus growled at Norm.
“About what?” Melissa asked, curiously.
About my….um….tastes.” Marcus answered quietly, and I was really confused.
“Oh. That you’re a kinky bastard? I already knew about that Marcus.” Lexi said.
“What? How?” Marcus sputtered.
“Mom went to clean your room for you one morning, and someone forgot to put something away you had just bought.”
“Ah shit.”
“Don’t worry about it. She wasn’t upset or worried about it. Dad wasn’t thrilled though.”
“Great. Why?”
“Mom got….um….curious I guess you could say. I did not need that phone call.”
“Who called you, and why?”
“Dad. He called, and asked me if I would get him something from the sex shop in town because he was too embarrassed to go himself.”
“Seriously? Wait. No. I don’t want to know.”
“That’s what I said.”
“You didn’t do it, did you?”
“Hell no! I told him to take mom, and get his own crap. I don’t know anything about that shit, and I sure as hell don’t want to learn about it by getting it for my parents.”
I was so confused at this point. I had no idea what the hell they were talking about. It seemed Melissa, and Molly did as they were both trying hard not to crack up. I was feeling a little stupid right about now.
“Wait….um….what are you all talking about?” I finally asked, blushing.
“Oh lord. Please. Please. Don’t ask that question right now. Just wait. Please. You will be scared off sex forever if you’re told.” Lexi begged.
“Huh?” Now I was really lost.
“Good grief you all. It’s not horrible. Look Chastity, it’s pretty simple. Some people like the basic, two people, no frills, fluff, or experimentation, while other people get into some things that involve a little more, um. How do I put this? Crazy stuff I guess.” Marcus answered.
“I still don’t understand.”
“Damn it. I like to tie Norm to the bed, and do what I want to him.”
“WHAT?”
“Not like that. It’s all for both of our pleasure. Norm trusts me not hurt him or take advantage of him, and I make him feel really good for giving me that trust. It’s pretty simple I guess. I probably should have just said that.”
“I still don’t get it, but I’ll take your word for it.”
“Oh thank goddess for that.” Molly breathed.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” I questioned.
“Chas, I love you dearly, but you are still way to innocent for these kinds of conversations. When you, and Rowen reach that point in your relationship, you two can talk about these things. He can explain them to you, you two can discuss them, and if there is something you are both interested in, go from there. You’re far from there though so don’t worry about it. OK?” Molly said gently.
“Yeah. OK.”
I almost laughed when Molly breathed a sigh of relief.
“So we have about two hours before Colby gets here. What do we want to do?” Melissa asked.
“Honestly ladies, we have been going non-stop all week. I had the week off to spend with Norm, and his family. I am worn out from all the pup chasing I did. If you’re ok with it, can we just hang out here for the afternoon?” Marcus requested.
“I’m kind of the same way. If I’m being honest with you.” Lexi agreed.
“Oh thank goddess.” Melissa huffed, as she flopped back on my bed.
“If you didn’t want to do anything, why did you ask?” Molly questioned.
“Because I figured you did, and you’re annoying about not getting an answer to a question.”
“I am not annoying.”
“When you ask the same question a hundred times you are.”
“Hey! I do not….”
“Hey! Stop it or I’m putting you both in separate corners.” I growled with a giggle.
Marcus, Norm, and Lexi all laughed. Molly, Melissa, and I couldn’t help, but join in. We did sound ridiculous.
“Chastity, Lexi, I want to hear all about your week!” Norm requested with a bounce.
Lexi, and I proceeded to tell them everything we did that week. Molly, and Melissa added things in as well. Norm, and Marcus listened intently the whole time. Norm did ask a few questions, and laughed at Lexi’s story about her, Colby, and the dunk tank. When we finished Marcus, and Norm told us about their week together. It was good to hear they had such an enjoyable time with Norm’s family, but I could definitely understand why Marcus was worn out. He did a lot to keep the large number of pups busy. He also discovered one of Norm’s brothers was a patrol warrior as well. They bounded over that. I was happy for them.
It seemed like no time passed when Colby let us know he was here for dinner. We all rushed down to meet him, and go eat. When it was time for him, Molly, and Melissa to go, I was sad, but the time spent with them out weighed the sadness. We all hugged goodbye. Lexi even hugged Colby which kind of shocked me. I did catch him whispering something in her ear, and her nod. I wondered what that was all about, but wouldn’t ask as it wasn’t my business. Lexi stood with me as we watched them leave. My night. ended with a nice phone call from Rowen, and a happy journal entry. I went to bed missing Rowen being next to me, but with a smile on my face.
