Date: Tue, 11 May 2021 20:38:14 -0400 From: Justin Forfun Subject: New Reality 22 This story started out of boredom, and has now taken on a life of its own. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback, and some negative. I'm open to suggestions and feedback, but it is what it is. You can comment as you like at Jst4fun2nyt@gmail.com. The sex in it isn't going to be a major part of it, nor is it going to be graphic. If you're looking for masturbation fodder, look elsewhere. There will be slow times in this story, just like there are in life. Other times, things will fly at you too fast. There will be boring days, and exciting days. It's just how it's flowing. I was going to try to keep writing, and post chapters slower so I could keep up. Work and real life have me distracted, so I'm going to put everything I have so far on Nifty, as fast as they'll post it. After that, chapters will come as I can get them written. No promises on how fast that will be, as my busy time at work is coming, and the next 6-8 months, I'll be working 15 hour days. DONATE to Nifty so you can continue to enjoy my story, and the thousands of others!!!! https://donate.nifty.org/ ************************************************************************** No one moved. I was about to speak when Frederick stood and waved his hand, closing the doors. "Sire, may I reveal the rest?" I knew what he meant so I nodded. He told them about the prophecy, quoting it entirely, and saying that he and many others, including some of the Princes, were convinced I was this coming king. When he was done, he walked to my end of the table, followed by Alejo and Maria, and they all dropped to one knee, bowing their head. On seeing this, my entire pack stood, faced me, and dropped to a knee. I had tears in my eyes as I looked at this, then my mates stood, turned to me and knelt. "I am honored, now stand, and return to your seats. Until this conflict is over, that will be the last time you do that, understood?" "Yes Sire!" "I've resisted being called Sir or Alpha except in the most extreme of circumstances, but in order to keep the confidences of members of the Council, Sir or Sire will be used whenever appropriate. Informality will be excused and even expected with family, and at family times. Now on to less stressful issues, Andrew has given me a list of who he's put in what rooms. I'm assuming you all slept in these rooms last night. I want to go through this real quick to help me know where you are. If there is an issue with where you are, speak up when I call your name." "My mates and I are in the master suite with the pups in the nursery of course, Brandon and Chipper are in the front bedrooms, second floor, with Mary in the bedroom over ours. Clint, Ted, Mickey, Jack, Frederick, Edward and Sarah are on the third floor main section." "Mom and Dad, the pool house is yours. When you're not here it will remain empty. Andrew, Amie, Andy and Lucas are third floor apartment in the office wing, with Tommy, Leonard, and Kailani on the second floor. Matt and Liza are in one of the garage apartments with the other being kept empty for visitors. Alejo and Maria are in rooms on the third floor, garage wing. The rest of the footmen and housekeepers will be housed there as well." "Sire, might we have a wall removed since we're a couple?" "Of course, and housing is fluid depending on your family situations. Just work with Andrew, he has full control of that. That goes for personal needs, vehicles, anything. Andrew, get whatever vehicles you need to provide for this house." "Now, I'm going to my new office. I expect each of you to come to confession, there will be no consequences for anything prior to today. I am not here to judge your personal moralities either, but I need to know things that can be used against you or the pack. Text Billy to schedule this, first Mike then David, so they can get back to their offices. Anyone else on a schedule speak up, otherwise, this is job one today. Lunch is casual in the kitchen on your own schedule. Dinner is in here, Andrew will announce a time, attendance is not, repeat not, mandatory." I moved and they all stood and waited as my mates and I left the room. Scott and Bea took the pups to the pool to join Mary and the kids as Billy and I headed for my office. Edward was following along and followed Billy into his office to give him a rundown on the security video system. When Billy joined me, I sent him back to turn off the camera and microphone in my office and once he returned, I had him bring Mike in. "Mike, I'm not accusing you of anything I'm just trying to feel more comfortable around my inner circle." "Sire, if I may, you don't owe any of us an explanation. I'm here to serve, how may I do that?" "Tell me anything in your past that when it comes to light, might cause me to doubt your loyalty. Any connections you have with any current or past Council Princes or the 27. Anything that could ruin you if it got out so we know how to keep it from being used against you somehow. And so you know, the cameras and mics in here are turned off. Anything you say stays with Billy and me, period." "You know I know Kevin, I met him when your Dad came to Pittsburgh in the 1950's and we got along. We're business acquaintances, not friends. Beyond him, I don't know that I've met any of the 27. I met Prince Herrera once at a charity dinner in New York but didn't speak with him for more than 10 minutes. You know I am the son of the Earl of Somerset in 1657 but that's common knowledge in England. The only thing that might embarrass me enough to blackmail me is that David and I enjoy BDSM." "That might have been used in the past, but no one in this house cares about your sex life as long as it's consensual. Do you remember anything Dimas talked about?" "No Sire, it was pure social niceties at a fundraiser after the meal." "Mike, I hope you know I'm honored that you serve me as you do. I need one more thing from you. All those people that came to you to join the pack, the better I do the more that's going to happen. Do you want me to get someone to handle that or can you?" "Unless I'm working on something directly for you, I'm playing solitaire on my computer. I'm happy to have the work Greg." "Good, then I'm appointing you as Delta for pack personnel. We'll define exactly what that entails as time goes but for now, anyone that needs my attention to join the pack bring to me. Keep a database of members, family members, employment. Work with Sam to help those that need it. Unless you object, I want to dress him up a bit and give him an office in your suite?" "That makes sense, gives people a central point to make contact." "OK, thanks Mike, send David in and then head downtown. Billy, get Sam to Tyler's." "No Greg, he'll be dealing with people who don't trust money, he needs to be in $200 suits at most, or just nice slacks, button downs and cheap ties." "He's right Greg. Dress him like you the poor won't trust him." "Handle it Billy, after David leaves." David came in and told me the same things. He remembered the charity dinner and it was a non-issue. He didn't think much of Kevin but didn't dislike or mistrust him, and he had nothing but the kinky sex that concerned him. I assured him his sex life didn't bother me and he left. Mary came in next and I offered to have Billy leave so she didn't need to reveal her secrets to her grandson but she insisted he stay saying "He's no longer my grandson Sire, he's my Beta, and as such belongs at your side." She went on to say her only interactions with the Council were as a servant when they were visiting James or myself. The rest of the morning went the same, with Mickey, Clint, Ted, Matt, Liza and Jack sharing their rare and casual interactions with the Council over the years, telling me of petty crimes decades ago, and admitting their personal kinks or proclivities. When Alejo brought us lunch I told him to go eat, then return with Leonard, Frederick and Tommy. When they came in I took them down and Leonard show us all how to operate the vault door. We went in and the room was 35' x 100' with a 12' ceiling and the only way in or out was the vault door. I told Leonard to build whatever Frederick wanted and we laid out simple storage and lighting. We decided that access would be limited to myself, my mates and Frederick for now. We locked up and I cast an illusion making the vault door look like a solid concrete wall, and we went up to the attic where there was a 20' x 90' room. Frederick suggested we line it for fireproofing and we can cast up here if we can't go outside. Books and scrolls can be studied in several private places throughout the house. When Leonard said he could have the storage ready in 4 days, I told Frederick to head to LA and pack. Take Alejo and Tommy for security, and get a semi to haul everything back here. "No Sire, I will not do that." I looked at Tommy like he was insane until he said "We don't have enough security here yet for all of us to be gone. Kill me for defying you if you like..." "Not going to happen and you know it. You're doing your job and I appreciate it. Keep it up. OK, I won't tell you how to do it, just get those books and scrolls on the shelves downstairs by this weekend. You four are the only ones to see them. Box them, enchant them, or carry them yourselves, understood?" "Yes Sire!" "Leonard, for you to do your work, only Billy or I can make that door appear. I'll do my best to be here at all times, but either Billy or I are in the office anytime that vault door is open. Also, I want that stairway hidden as well, build around it and make it a bookshelf or something else, not a door." "Make the doors from both offices and the conference room bookshelves. Make this room disappear." Billy said. "I like it. Leonard, sit and talk with me, Tommy stick around, you're next." Leonard had never met a member of the Council before he came to us, and was honest to a fault. His sex life might surprise humans, but from what I'd already learned, he was normal. Tommy was a driver for Regent for years, and had driven most of the Council around town at one time or another, but they were usually very tight mouthed when he was able to hear. He couldn't remember anything worth sharing but if something came to mind, he would let me know right away. Frederick came in with his head down obviously feeling like he was guilty of something. I told him I understood he had been with George for 2000 years and I didn't expect him to betray his previous Alpha unless it directly affected me. That seemed to put him at ease somewhat but he still felt bad for having come to me dishonestly. I reminded him that was in the past and I understood they had to feel me out before risking exposure. He again swore his life to my service and offered his throat to verify his intent. I had forgotten what Kevin did to me the day I was changed but I had no desire to do that, though things might come to it. I sent him off to figure out getting our texts and scrolls here safely. When we were alone Billy spoke up "I trust him totally Greg. His heart was racing when he came in but I feel it was his guilt and fear that you would ask him to betray George. Once he understood you only expected loyalty and honesty from here forward, his pulse slowed and was steady. He didn't speak an untrue word today." "I agree, let's keep going, get Andrew, Amie and Lucas headed this way." Andrew had the same concerns as Frederick and I had to be clear I didn't care about secrets he knew about the Prime Minister of England in 1829 but I did care about attitudes of the Council members if they were still serving. I made it clear to him I never doubted his loyalty but I couldn't exclude anyone from this conversation, including my own parents. He left knowing I had full faith in him. Amie came in and had nothing worth talking about and was so dedicated to being open and honest with me she told me how she and Andrew had taught Lucas about masturbation. I assured her that was not my concern, and that I had done the same with both of my boys and if Andy asked, she should follow her heart. I made a point of thanking her for taking over the cooking so Mary could care for my boys and she headed off to cook dinner. Lucas came in with tears in his eyes and I pulled him into my lap and held him to listen to his admissions of looking at internet porn. I kissed his forehead and told him he was a healthy young man and was fine, and I trusted him with my life. He left a much happier young man. Dad came in next and I felt awkward at the prospect of having to interrogate my father but he immediately put me at ease by telling me his father had told him about magic when he sent Stephan to Zurich. His connections with the Council were limited to businesses with Reinhardt and his friendship with George. When I asked about Kevin he told me he'd known Kevin since meeting him during the American Revolution and had trusted him as his personal lawyer, just like I trusted Mike. He couldn't swear to it, but he felt George and Reinhardt had something to do with his being on the Council and suggested I talk to them. When we were alone again Billy quietly said "He's hiding something Greg." "I know, and I don't know what to do about it. How do I question the loyalty of the one who made me?" Dad left and Mom came in to add nothing new to our information. She has spent her life being the traditional housekeeper and servile mate. As I listened to her, I started wondering if my mates liked the roles they had in our lives and our pack. I sensed them approaching and looked up to see my other two mates walk in and shut the door. "Babe, the pack comes before anyone, you have to act with that in mind, regardless of who is involved." "I stood before the pack this morning and declared death to anyone that betrayed me hon, and you're saying I have to make the first one our Dad?" "James was an Alpha Greg, he knows the risk of trying to hide things from you. If he had been open you might have options, but if word gets out that you show him mercy it could cost you everything." "I know Bea, but we don't know what he's hiding, just that he's not being honest. I can't sentence anyone to death on suspicions." I thought for a minute and as an idea was forming, Billy handed me the phone. When I looked and saw he had already called who I needed. "Patrick, we've never talked but I need your help." I explained what I needed and he agreed to get me answers. I gave him two days. He had a favor to ask of me and I told him I'd have to think about it. Andrew let us know that dinner would be ready in an hour and asked if the pack was required to dress. I realized I had never set a standard so I told him in future, pack meetings would be business attire, meals in the dining room would be casual, and meals in the kitchen would be clothing optional. Staff are to be in uniform from 8am until any guests leave, unless those guests also undress. I told him I wanted to meet with the kids either at dinner or after it to talk about when they needed to have clothing on. As Andrew was turning to go, Edward came to say that Sam was here with a young lady and was asking to speak with me. I told him to show them in, and told Andrew to expect them at dinner. Scott and Bea got up to leave but Sam asked if they would stay, and introduced a human girl named Tanya to us. He went on to tell us they had found her with the other girls on the street and had felt the mating bond the second he met her. Because she had been on the streets with our kind, she had already figured out our secret and had no issues with our existence. She told us of feeling drawn to Sam when she first laid eyes on him, and they were here asking for my blessing on their union. "Have you discussed plans Sam?" "We have, and I am here asking, not only for permission to marry, but she wants to be changed Sire, to be my mate." "Tanya, you're asking us to change you but do you realize the life you're asking for? Has Sam explained his role?" "He's told me about being a vampire and that I can live for centuries if I choose. I know he's an Alpha and bisexual, and we won't be monogamous. Well, he won't be." "And what does Shane think about this? Has he worked out his issues?" "You told me to give him space to sort out things and I did. He understood why we stopped but last week he came to me crying saying he was feeling rejected and needed me to take him as his Alpha. I took him but I haven't marked him. If you feel I was wrong I freely submit for discipline but it was killing him Sire. He's still begging me to mark him." "You didn't do anything wrong Sam, if he's willingly giving that to you. But has he figured out if his desire is his genuine sexuality? Or due to being forced all his life?" "He's got a boyfriend. They're versatile, but I think it's just a friendly sexual thing, I don't see the love of a mating bond. I could be wrong though." "And will you feel comfortable with this Tanya? Has Shane shown any interest in you? Or has this boyfriend?" "I will give my body to anyone Sam asks me to, but Shane has no interest in me, and neither has Brian." My eyebrows raised at the name but Sam said "Not that Brian, another of the guys we pulled off the streets." "So the three of you have shared a bed, but not the four?" asked Bea. "Correct Ma'am. Sam and Shane had me join them one evening." "Why are you bringing this to me Sam? You're the Alpha of your pack." "When you accepted us you called us a sub-pack, not a serving pack. I don't have full freedom in these issues Sire. I lead my pack only to serve your needs. Mike gave me a copy of the traditions. I studied it after you accepted us and realized the specific wording." "Tanya, have you read them as well?" "I have Sire. I know my role as sub-Alpha mate and we've discussed this. I plan on enrolling in a psychology program for now." "You come to me to ask permission but you're both talking like this is a done deal Sam, why is that?" "We're coming asking permission to change her Sire. She is my mate, even if that only lasts one lifetime. If we don't change her, I will allow myself to die of age as well. Forgive me, I'm not saying that trying to use it as leverage. I'm just saying I know I won't want life after she's gone." "We understand that Sam, it's fine. Are you planning on doing it?" "No Billy, we've come to ask Greg to do it." "Sam, there's more to it than that. If you're wanting a changeling as a mate, you need to know what might happen." "You're talking about magic?" I used my powers to shut the doors as I asked "How do you know about that Sam and how much do you know?" "My grandfather, Sebastian, was changed in the late 1700's in France. His Alpha sent him off with a guy named Lucien in Switzerland." "Billy, get Frederick in here." I wasted my breath because Billy was already on his phone. "Who was his Alpha?" "Alpha Fabre in Paris." I picked up my phone and called Joan "I apologize for the hour brother, but I need you at my home in Pittsburgh as fast as you can. I'm looking for a changeling named Sebastian also, if you know him, bring him as well. Charter a jet on me if you have to." He said he'd be here in the morning and as I hung up, Frederick and Andrew came to the door. "Bring our dinner in here Andrew, everyone else can eat. Anything else I need to deal with tonight?" "Your father says he needs to head to Florida to oversee the remodeling Sire, he has asked if Mrs. Warnick can stay?" "Of course, have the alternates fly him down though, I want Ted and Mickey here. And Alpha Pau Joan Fabre is flying in from Paris, Billy will get him a car, he'll be staying over the garage. He may have associates with him." "As you wish Sire." Once Andrew had left us, I looked at Sam and Tanya "You two realize your lives are in danger? From outside forces and now from me." "From you Sire?" "Knowledge of my having magic must not get out of this house. The lives of my mates and children depend on this and when it comes to their safety, I will stop at nothing." Sam and Tanya must have really studied the traditions because they both dropped to their knees and offered their throats as Sam said "Take my blood to know my thoughts Sire." I pulled Sam to his feet and embraced him "I trust you with my life already Sam. When do you want to change your mate?" "Would you do it tonight?" I looked at Tanya when she said this. "Do you have anyone that would look for you? Where are your parents? Siblings?" "My father walked out when I was two. I ran away when my mom's boyfriend thought he could use me too. That was a year ago, a week after I ran, she killed him then overdosed. I have no one." "Tanya, I don't know if I can do it the traditional way an Alpha changes mates for his pack, I'm gay." "I would like you to try Sire. If you can't, I'll make love to her as you drain her and she feeds." I turned to my mates and Scott said "When your Alpha came out, I knew you'd have sex with many other people babe. It's part of our life, I'm fine with it." "Bea and I feel the same Greg." I looked to my mates and got a mental 'yes' from each then turned back to Tanya "I'll do it, tonight. For now, Sam, you know Frederick? Your grandfather knew him as Lucien." Sam looked wide eyed at Frederick "You know Grand-pére?" "He was a pupil of mine while Napoleon was ravaging Europe. I only got to work with him for a year before George summoned me to the US and Sebastian refused to leave France. He told me Prince Hauer tested him and reported to the Council that he had no magic." "Frederick, why didn't you mention him or your connection to Alpha Fabre?" "Sire, Sebastian is one of hundreds of students I've had over the years. He never crossed my mind until now. Alpha Fabre is one of many who have protected changelings over the centuries, I didn't think I needed to list them, but now I see I should. I'll make a list of all those I know of that have done this over the years." "No, you're right. I'm sure you're not hiding anything. But I need to know that I can still trust Joan. He'll be here in the morning and I need to know what to say. Get working on in Frederick. Tanya, Sam, you still want to do this tonight?" "Yes Sire. I would like to meet Sam's Pépère as a vampire, if I may." "Alright, let's all head to our room. I'm not sure you'll be awake by morning but we can see." As we were passing through our dressing room my mates and I undressed and I asked Tanya when her last period was. When she told me, I looked at Sam and his face confirmed what I had suspected, they had other traditions in mind as well. When I asked about this, they confirmed that they were hoping a child would come from this tonight and that I would mark Sam as well. Bea wasn't as well read on the traditions as the rest of us, so we had to explain that unlike a Serving Alpha, a sub-Alpha was essentially a Beta with a pack and was to be marked as such, with any pups to be assumed to have their Alpha's bloodline. "Sam, were you trying to trick me? Or did you assume that I understood this?" "When we said the traditional way and I had clarified sub-pack I thought you understood Sire, please, if you don't desire this we can find another way." "You are asking me to go by all the traditions Sam? How much did your book tell you of the relationship you're asking for?" "I will take a mounted mating bite from you without returning one, making me your son or brother. Tanya will die from your mating bite, and with no returning bite she will be your daughter. There is a chance that her change will complete the bond, but she's not your mate because you don't bear her bite. You will be able to read our thoughts at will Sire. Anytime we make love, she has to submit to you for the same to ensure that any pups could be yours." "He's read it all Greg, and he's right. By the traditions, as a sub-Alpha, he's not allowed a pup of his own." I again looked to my mates for their feelings and got told to do what I thought best, they supported me totally regardless of the outcome. "Sam, you know you could simply ask me to release you from sub status, right?" "I do Sire, and I owe you my life, and the lives of my pack, my family. After I read the traditions, I can't get it out of my head. I will accept a release if you don't want me, but my desire is to remain a sub-Alpha, and your brother if you'll accept me." "I will accept you as my brother without the sub-Alpha but if you're sure..." "We're sure Sire. Sam and I both want the honor to serve you for life, as your sub-Alpha and his mate." "And if there's a mating bond formed with me?" "I do not expect to be accepted into your mated group Sire, and we will not ask for sexual interactions. He can please me without penetration and he can still be with Shane." "Sam, I will do this if you agree to my conditions. You will live in this house as my brother. Any pups will know me as uncle but we will assume I am the father. If the mating bond forms with Tanya, I will mate bond with you, and I will leave it to my other mates if they desire to join that bond as well. You already know this, but you are below Billy in pack hierarchy. You will both submit to my mates sexually anytime they desire, and you will give Shane the Beta mark he has earned. The only ones that will ever call you Alpha are those in your pack now. You will not add to your pack after tonight. Do you accept these conditions Sam?" "I yield my pack, my life, and my pups Sire." Sam said as he knelt and turned his head, offering his throat to me. I turned and told Tanya she needed to see what she was getting into, and shifted into my Alpha form. Every increase in my pack or rank increased my beast's Alpha status and now, as the supposed King my beast knew he was the ultimate Alpha. My head brushed the 9' ceiling as I towered over Sam's mate and she didn't flinch, just knelt and offered her throat. I nodded and shifted back, telling her to take her mate to my bed while I told Billy to get Shane here as soon as possible.
