Reuben releases me feeling I move to get up asking “Can you walk baby?” I respond “I have to get back to Carmen,” he stands up “I will carry you, sweetheart. But I need clothes first,” looking down at himself. I laugh “One- I m not that gay. Second, oh yeah you do. Let me take care of that for you”
He lifts his left eyebrow grins DEVILISHLY “Reallllly!” he says with a shit-faced plastered grin as he leans back onto the sofa spreading open his limbs. “FRESCO” I respond as I had gotten up and brought back the bathrobe I see Randall left for him.
I toss it at him as he says “HELL Ya! ONLY FOR YOU BABE!!” and flashes me, holding the bathrobe open after putting it on, swishing his hips swinging his hardening monster back and forth then closes securing the tie strings. I laugh now yelling “CORRECTION BELLACO!! (HORNY FUCK)” we both laugh as Reuben pulls me into his embrace and we peck kiss.
Reuben lets go telling me as we head for the vacant door and frame “They are something else, huh?” I respond “huh??”. Reuben continues “I like them, mulatto, they’re devoted to you, prepared to die for you. They have my respect.” Including “Carmen something about her I appreciate.” We go outside.
I head right to Carmen who is now sitting with her head on Randall’s shoulder. Reuben’s walking right behind me. She turns at my approach “I...I saw my mother like she was still alive Alejandro?” At Reuben’s approach, Randall and Bella walk off just a few feet but watching. Reuben reaches taking Carmen’s hands she stands up as he straightens “I am sorry Carmen I should have told you first. Crimson has a unique gift as a Celestial Guardian with the deceased.”
Carmen’s hand’s quiver as she grasps Reubens “Pls Reuben can I see her again?” Reuben smiles at her “It would be my honor”. The next instant she’s there, stepping from behind Reuben, Adelphi. Huge tears from falling from Adelphi eyes, Delicate, a mother’s love “Hi Hija, Carmita, mi hijita”.
Carmen’s knees quivered as she goes to get up. She is about to fall again when I say “Oh no you don’t mama” this time Reuben and I standing by her sides, grab her one under each arm. “MOMMY!” says a now shaking Carmen. Releasing us she takes a wobbling step forward. She reaches arms outstretched, hands shaking. In a moment she’s hugging her mother screaming hysterical crying “mommy, mommy, mommy?!!” Her voice, hands, body quivering. Adelphi hugs her offspring with so much love, tears coming down.
Releasing her daughter, Adelphi pulls back. “Come Mija, there is much to tell you of things to come” We watch as they walk off to the fallen tree and sit to talk. My thoughts bother me, I want to remember Adelphi, who she was, how she impacted my life, how much closer was the relationship they held than what I see, but I don’t.
Gazing on Alejandro I smile during my reply “13 years ago”. Knowing, to protect his mate, the alpha will kill me without a second thought.
I continue “How can you do this?” Alejandro walks around to my front turning his head and sees my eyes glowing deep Forest green. I felt a shudder go down his back. Placing my right arm on Alejandro’s shoulder, I assure him by drawing him tighter to my side. Not once do I lift my eyes off Adelphi, “You realize what I capable of Adelphi.” My voice dark with power devoid of emotion except for the sudden growl coming forth. “SPEAK”
I see my smile warms Alejandro. Turning his gaze from his powerful mate meeting my own. “Your happiness warms me, Alejandro. May the goddess bless you both.” Alejandro’s probing gaze of “Do I know you?” will shortly be cleared up. Shifting my gaze onto his mate, the Alpha “Alpha do you recall my request when you first met me?” His face keeps its glare. Then becomes one of recognition, he remembers.
Turning my head to face at my mate my eyes no longer glow. The tone in my voice changes towards Adelphi “Yes”. I know why she is here. I saw he felt the strain of my words on him “I am sorry my love but there’s something we must do first before we locate your pools.”
Without realizing why, or even challenging it, I trust Reuben. “ok” with a slight smirk. Reuben takes my hand showing me back on the trail to the home. As I allow him to lead me telling him “But ya might want to fill me in and inform me who she is?” Reuben said nothing except “Adelphi wants to meet Carmen” Except for Reuben grip on my palm. Our walk back to the cabin was silent, weird.
As we near the barrier Adelphi stops. Reuben approaches the barrier and the spheres move away, opening a passage for him. I had not even noticed them until now. I see Reuben look towards Adelphi saying “I would be honored” but there was something about how he expressed it I found cold while watching Adelphi enter. The way he glanced at her I felt it. Then realized he’s containing himself as if furious about something. Something that involves ADELPHI.
“Call to Carmen Mulatto” And I call her. the approaching closeness of Carmen’s voice let me know her distance to the screen door. She is near. “Back already? What happened? I was preparing lunch I figured.......” the screen door opens wide as Carmen steps out and moves down the two wooden planked steps of the porch to us. That is all she manages. Adelphi, who was behind Reuben comes out. Carmen’s hand freeze their purification on the cloth she was carrying. Her voice a murmur leaves her lips “mommy??” then drops to her knees.
“CARMEN!” I rush to her, clutching her in my arms “CARMEN! CARMEN!!” In a second, a lightning bolt races colliding with the top of the barrier deflected to the lake. At my sudden shout, Randall phases and Coco comes barreling from around back jumping, landing in front of us snarling as he faces Reuben “Alejandro! CARMEN!! What’s wrong!” Reuben’s eyes transform from emerald to Forest Green as he takes a stride towards me. In second Coco’s eyes latched onto him “Don’t move Alpha!” his teeth clicking, eyes pressed against his skull. “I will not remind you again!” snarling.
“HE’S MY MATE, Randall!! I AM THE ONE WHO WILL WARN YOU ONCE! MOVE!!” The ground becomes hot beneath our feet. Reuben’s eyes turn Dark Forest Green. A deafening explosion takes place from behind me as the door explodes outwards, frame and all. A White ghostly mystic luminescent wulf joins the stalemate, side by side to Randall. A furious voice declares “YOU DEAF Mutha Fucka DON’T MOVE!”
Bella snarls in her supernatural form. Reuben’s eyes blaze with higher depth. In an instant, the sound of ripping clothes behind reddish mist echoes. CRIMSON stands phased hackles raised, snarling. His gaze directed to arrive at me, He delivers the sole threat to the pair, a growl. Only death will intercept him. Stiff legged, he advances towards me. The leaves beneath him first release smoke whips then becoming hot ember as his eyes move, latching onto what is between us. Randall & Bella
Carmen was in awe but snapping out of it, she follows my sight onto the battle unfolding before her. My head already shifted to see the battle about to arise. I stand transfixed forgetting to act “stop them he will kill them!” Releasing her, in one gesture I jump, landing between them. “STOP!” A huge lightning bolt SMASHES through the Barrier and hits me, immersing me in its power. Crimson, Coco, and Bella stopped snarling, releasing their compulsion to fight.
“Mate!” Crimson screams in my mind, his voice filled with panic. In one gesture, He leaps, phases and Reuben is holding me seeking to shield me from the downpour of incessant lightning power. I grip him to protect him, taking in the lightning. The lightning stops raining down. I peer at him “Pls calm down” I whisper feeling all my energy suddenly drained from my body, going down as my knees give way and I crumple into his chest.
Face full of concern he replies “Yes Amor” he lifts me up and Carries me inside. Walking past coco and Bella. Their eyes latched onto me with the same concern. Inside Reuben lays me down on the sofa. Randall now phased followed him in, rushes into the kitchen and brings me a wet rag and some water. Without speaking a word, he hands it to Reuben then continues to Carmen. Bella had shot in a few moments later to check on me. Then she too went back to Carmen.
Reuben held me on his lap baby cradled, wiping my face with the washcloth. “Are you ok mulatto, do you want m
e to bring you more water?” without warning and for the second time since we met, Reuben crushes me in his hug as if I would disappear. “Pa, I am fine just a little shaky but you’re crushing me.” He releases me to look at me with tears in his eyes. “Already I love you so much mulatto. The thought you would die caused my reaction. I am sorry. But I would rather die with you than live without you”
Cupping his face in my palms “Now you listen Reuben CRIMSON. In two days things have taken place I do NOT understand. But this I do, I am not dying any time soon and neither are you. OK? Because someone destined us to be mates you understand me?” He nods his head then reaches to touch foreheads. “besides” my voice becomes tender, my next words true from my core, of my being “Without you now, I would perish too.” He no longer expresses anything, he hugs me. He hugs me so strong I groan. But I let him I am his, his mate, this is his right.
Reuben releases me feeling I start to get up asking “Can you walk baby?” I reply “I have to go back to Carmen,” he rises up “I will carry you, sweetheart. But I need clothes first,” glancing down at himself. I laugh “ One- I am not that gay. Two - oh yeah you do. Let me take care of that for you” He lifts his left eyebrow grins DEVILISHLY “Reallllly!” he adds with a shit-faced plastered grin as he leans back onto the sofa spreading wide his legs. “FRESCO” I respond as I had gotten up and brought back the bathrobe I see Randall left for him.
I toss it at him as he answers “HELL Ya! ONLY FOR YOU BABE!!” and flashes me, holding the bathrobe open after putting it on. Swishing his hips, swinging his hardening monster back and forth then closes securing the string. I laugh now yelling “CORRECTION BELLACO!! (HORNY FUCK)” we both laugh as Reuben pulls me into his embrace and we kiss.
Reuben lets go telling me as we head for the vacant door and frame “They are something else, huh?” I respond “huh??”. Reuben continues “I admire them, mulatto, they’re devoted to you, prepared to die for you. They have my respect.” Especially Carmen. She has something about her I admire.” We move outside.
I head right to Carmen who is now resting with her head on Randall’s shoulder. Reuben’s walking right behind me. She turns at my approach “I...I saw my mother like she was still alive Alejandro?” At Reuben’s approach, Randall and Bella walk off just a few feet but remain observing. Reuben reaches taking Carmen’s hands she rises up as he straightens “I am sorry Carmen I should have mentioned you first. Crimson has a unique gift as a Celestial Guardian with the deceased”
Carmen’s hands tremble as she grasps Reubens “Pls Reuben can I see her again?” Reuben smiles at her “It would be my honor”. The next instant she’s there, walking from behind Reuben, Adelphi. Huge tears fill Adelphi eyes. Tender words resonate a mother’s love “Hi Hija, Carmita, mi hijita”.
Carmen’s knees wobbled as she moves to stand. She is about to go down again when I assert “Oh no you don’t mama” this time Reuben and I stand by her sides, catching her one under each arm. “MOMMY!” expresses a now shaking Carmen. Releasing us she takes a wobbling step forward. She reaches arms outstretched, hands shaking. In a moment she’s hugging her mother screaming hysterical crying “mommy, mommy, mommy?!!” Her voice, hands, body quivering. Adelphi hugs her daughter with so much love, tears flow.
After hugging her daughter, Adelphi pulls back. “Come mija, there is much to explain you of things to take place” Silently we look as they walk off to the fallen tree and sit to communicate. My emotions bother me, I wish I could remember Adelphi, who she was, how she impacted my way of life, how much closer was the relationship they held than what I see, but I don’t.
THE GODDESS’S TEST
Within Reubens embrace, I said to myself “Thank you pa”. Reuben wraps his other arm around me, his head down peering at me as I glance up at him, his eyes alive. For the first time, I hear his thoughts “I would give anything for you. Your wish will always be my command. Owner of my soul” Surprised I heard him, I smile turning red saying in return “as mine is yours” Reubens’ face changes to a slight red. I did not know then why he blushed. Later, he told me because he heard my wulf speak.
I turn facing Reuben. Looking at him, I see he’s a little pale. I panic. “What’s wrong? Your turning pale pa?”. Seeing the concern as he peers at me, Reuben says, “Can we move inside Mulatto, I need to lie down sweetheart. I will explain this time.” I support him inside laying him on the sofa. Then ask, “Why are you turning pale?” My concern mixes with frustration at not being capable to resolve the ailment. Outside, a previously cloudless sky develops rumbling thundershowers. Unknown to me, my emotions are making this happen.
“My gift allows me to free earth bonded spirits. I am doing the opposite with Adelphi. I am keeping her here. Adelphi is getting power from Crimson to remain on this plane. Long enough to have closure with her offspring” Now I turn pale! WHAT!!
Reuben Continues “Don’t worry mulatto, I am fine just a little weak. Adelphi was a powerful seer when she lived which means she needs more power to continue. Crimson will sever the link at my command.” Extending my hand caressing Alejandro’s face. Using my thumb, I rub his skin “Carmen has received my most profound appreciation and her mother, my deepest gratitude. I chose to show my gratitude for what her mother has done for me.” To ease his concern, I change the subject matter with a brief laugh “besides, If I play sick to have you lay down next to me, will you?” Alejandro smiles as I dry hump him twice.
I laugh standing up retrieving a blanket for us. Reuben shuffles back on the sofa giving me space to lay next to him while talking to him. “Weeell there are people here and so YA GONNA HAVE TO WAIT BUDDY!” we laugh as I become comfortable lying next to him. He kisses me whispering in my ear “I love you, Alejandro, I always will. Thank the Goddess Ochum she brought us together at last.” Wrapping his right arm across my belly he draws me tighter to him and dry humps my bum. “go to sleep pa”, I turn over placing my ass away from him and out of REACH! He grumbles “not fair” we chuckle. Soon, in his huge arms I fall asleep, my head resting on Reuben’s chest.
Drifting to dreamland. Once more I find myself in the woodlands running. Crimson is running alongside me, giving me a feeling of elation taking over us. We arrived at the dwelling sooner this time. The goddess was there. Again, she calls, this time to us both “My children you have arrived”. We both appear out of the woods, starting up the trail. I hesitate a little. Crimson comes back licking my hand once “Come, love, she’s been expecting you.” Squatting down, we touch foreheads and I am no longer frightened.
Reuben phases as we approach. Both bare naked, Reuben hugs her. Yet it does not upset me. “Hello my son,” the goddess says as she gestures and receives me in a hug only Reuben can equal. “Mother” is all I spoke. She releases me. Then I see Estrella mom’s wulf and rush to her.
She makes a brief-excited bark, jumping up to embrace me. Placing her forelegs on my shoulders she licks my face once. I hug her tight “He found me, mommy, my mate”. Estrella responds “Yes Alejandro, I see and a fine mate he is. He will die for you, Alejandro. In your darkest hour turn to him,” she releases me now, coming back to all fours turning towards the goddess “Come, baby, Mother was speaking with you. I have raised you better than that.” Feeling embarrassed “Sorry, mom your right” The goddess laughs “You raised him well Estrella you should be proud” Estrella sticks out her chest proud and beams with dignity “Thank you, Goddess. I am” Love from her eyes lighting up for me.
Giving her attention to the Goddess again as she spoke. “You have already taken your first step to accomplishing that which you seek my child. Trust Crimson he will accompany you. Call to Sable. He is waiting for you and he is closer than you realize.” I stared at the goddess nervous. At the mention of his name, my throat aches. “I don’t know how, I barely understand what is happening yet I know it is right.” I say casting my gaze to the dirt path, feeling ashamed and frightened. As if knowing my mind, the goddess says “Do not fear Alejandro, Crimson is your mate for a r
eason. Trust him for he will find a way” I glance to a wulf phased Crimson who sits watching everything attentively, his tail wagging. Returning my gaze to her, I smile once more and hug the Goddess “I do. Thank you, goddess” An energy begins gripping me pulling me upwards. I panic and look to the goddess, searching for an answer “It is time.” is all she says and releases me. My body drifts upwards away from them. My gaze falls to my mother, my body feeling the pull becoming stronger and stronger “MA?”
Her tail swishes “See you soon baby.” I hear my mother say. I watch as they grow smaller and smaller. For a moment, turning to face where I am going I see I’m heading to light. My body is seen fighting the upwards light I am being drawn closer to. It is then panic sets in. “MA! MA! MAA!!” Then his voice “Mate?” the strength in his tone calms me drawing my attention towards it. I see him floating alongside me, Crimson. “Sable, your wulf, is not my only mate. I will never leave you, Alejandro. Trust in me.” Reaching for him, wrapping my arms around his neck I hold on tight. My panic altogether stops and as one, we enter into the light.
Awakening, I see I am back in the cabin. This time the tantalizing spanish aroma of Carmen’s cooking enter my nostril. Turning over I don’t feel Reuben beside me. Without reason, I panic, bouncing up first in an alarm then annoyed. Realizing I am waking up while without shifting to look my way, Carmen says, “The three warriors are outside getting ready to work out their issue”. WHAT!! I panic bolting for the door arriving to see all three in wulf form. Before I can open the door, Carmen grabs my free arm saying “Wait. This is OUR CODE. He has to show he can care for you”. I go to say something but, She cuts me off before I continue “He is about to demonstrate to them. They are no longer your primary guardians, he is.”
