The sex isn't a major part of it, nor is it graphic. If you're looking for masturbation fodder, look elsewhere. There will be many 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.

Chapter 66

 

 

I looked from Dad to Scott, then to a much younger version of my old neighbor Mr. Kline. Then things started to fall into place in my mind. James and Donna moving in to his old house when there had never been a `For Sale' sign out front. Then I remembered the winter when his grandson `Scotty' visited. I never thought it was my Scott due to the difference in ages, but now it made sense. I turned to my mate in shock.

 

"I took you sled riding!"

 

He laughed and said "You did. And I fell in love with you when I was 4. I begged Opa to let me come visit again but Dad said we couldn't risk you noticing my aging. We moved down so I could try to win you over."

I looked at Dad and Mr. Kline, er, the Baron and said "You set me up?"

"Not exactly, Greg, but in a way, yes. Are you angry?" Dad asked, a bit nervously.

 

"I wouldn't trade Scott for anything, so I guess not. What if I hadn't had my accident?"

Scott answered "I was going to explain everything, but over time. Dad saw that I couldn't hide how I felt and pushed me to explain. I messed it up though, and you fell."

I guess I was used to my new reality throwing me curves because I just shrugged and said "I'm happy with how it turned out. If I didn't have you, when Dad died, I'd be alone." I turned and said "Mr. Kline, you're looking a lot healthier than the last time I saw you."

"Call me Opa, that's German for Grandpa. And I'm sorry I missed your wedding but I had already lined up everything for my refreshing and couldn't change it. I brought you a wedding present" He said, as he handed me the keys to the luxury/muscle car with the distinctive boattail design.

 

"I can't accept this. You've had it since it was new! I remember you telling me about the day you bought it." I said, trying to hand the keys back to him.

 

"You can, and you will. Hasn't James shown you my collection? I have every car I ever bought."

"I thought those were Dad's? I'm sorry, Mr... er, Opa, they're in storage until we get a garage built for them."

The Baron looked at dad and shook his head "When you give gifts, always be clear about what is included. Your father seems to think that everything that was ever mine should be his."

 

I laughed and told them about Derrick and my desk chair. We walked to the door and I introduced Billy as my Beta and mate, and Bea as Billy's wife and our mate. The Baron hugged them both then Dad suggested we go in so Opa could meet our pups, so we led him in to the family room.

 

My pups were gathered around with Eric, Derrick, and Joshua standing in the center. Chipper, Charlie, and Davie were wrapped in towels and smelling of chlorine so I assumed they had been in the pool. Morgan was holding Val and Tanya was holding Millie. Brandon came in leading Jeremy and a crying Jesse.

 

"What's wrong?" I asked.

 

"I think Jesse broke his arm Dad."

 

I knelt and looked at Jesse's arm and said "I'd say you're right." I turned to Dad to ask for advice when the Baron knelt down and smiled at Jesse.

"I'm your Great Granddad, but you can call me Opa. This might hurt a bit, for a second, but do you trust me to make it better?"

Jesse looked from the Baron to me. When I nodded, he looked back and in a nervous voice said "I'll be brave Opa. Fix it, please?"

 

The Baron turned to Brandon and asked him to go get a cup of human blood, then he grabbed Jesse's wrist with one hand, and his elbow with the other, quickly pulling and aligning the bones. He held it there for a moment, and when Brandon returned with the blood, he told Jesse to drink it all down.

 

He released Jesse's arm and said "You be careful with it for a few hours and you'll be fine. Now, tell Opa how you did this. Were you fighting a bear?"

Jesse's eyes got real big as he said "Oh no, Opa. I didn't fight no bear."

"Well were you wrestling an alligator?"

"There ain't no alligators here Opa."

"Well then, how did you manage to break a vampire arm?" The Baron asked.

 

Jesse blushed and said "I was trying to jump the posts on the dock and I didn't jump high enough and fell."

 

We all laughed and Opa picked up the embarrassed pup and held him as he turned to meet the others.

 

"Baron Zell, may I present my pups. Crown Prince Joshua, Alphas Eric and Derrick, Derrick's Beta Brandon." The Baron bowed his head to each of these as I pointed to them. "The three dripping on the carpet are Chipper, Charlie, and Davie. You've met Jesse and his twin Jeremy, Morgan is holding Valerie, while his sister Tanya is holding Camilla."

The Baron looked at Derrick, then to Eric, and finally looked at me and asked "Forgive me Greg, but I'm unsure whom I should address about this next issue."

"I'm making an assumption here, but I think it would depend on what you want Opa, I'm sure either of my pups would be honored, and I personally am retaining a small pack that includes any family that chooses to stay with me." I said, then quickly added "Of course, there is no rush, as Derrick just took over my pack, and he and I are sorting out our packs today and tomorrow."

"No, Greg, you guessed correctly, and with all due respect, I think it best we discuss things before I decide, if I may?"

"Of course, would you like to do that now? Or would you like some time with Dad, or the pups?"

 

Derrick spoke up with "Dad, can we just enjoy an afternoon in the pool? We haven't had much family time lately, and we can discuss who's in what pack after dinner, if you don't mind?"

 

I smiled at my son and said "I think that's a great idea."

Jesse whispered something in Opa's ear that made him laugh. I was curious until I heard him reply "Of course we'll swim naked pup, we're vampires, aren't we?"

 

Scott and the pups led Opa to the pool while I stopped by the kitchen to talk with Amie. She and Mary gathered chicken, steaks, burgers and hot dogs and we headed for the grills. I laughed when Jennifer yelled for Eric to come take lessons as I started the chicken and steaks. Derrick wisely joined his brother as I explained to them how the location of the meat affected how quickly the outside cooked compared to the inside. I taught them to sear the steaks, then place them around the edges where the heat was lower so the inside would cook without charring the outside. Eric was actually already rather skilled at this, contrary to what his mate had said. Derrick was struggling with things when Jamie walked up and hugged him saying that he would be the grill master for their barbeques.

 

While I was teaching the finer points of grilling, Bea and Mary had the girls in the shallow end of the pool, gently floating them on their backs. Val loved the water, while Millie just tolerated it. Charlie and Davie were both jumping in then swimming to the steps only to run to the side to do it again. Morgan had teamed up with Chipper and Jeremy, and they were wrestling Brandon and Jarrod. The Baron was holding a sleeping Jesse as he sat and talked with Mom and Dad.

 

When the food was ready, we called all the pups out of the water and sat around the outdoor tables to eat. The Baron impressed me by addressing each of them by their name when he asked them about school or work. He then turned to me and asked if I had room for an old man to serve in my pack. I explained that my pack was going to be my core group, only those in my household or working directly with me. Dad suggested the Baron's centuries of experience might make him a valuable advisor. I turned to Derrick, and when he nodded, I told Opa that I'd be happy to have him in my pack. Mom and Dad asked Derrick if he would be upset if they stayed in my pack, and Derrick simply stood and said that other than his mates, Brandon and Jarrod, everyone in the house was welcome to remain with me, if they wanted. There would be no hard feelings on his part.

 

Brandon turned to him and they had a quiet conversation, then Derrick turned to me and asked about Morgan. I looked at Morgan and saw him looking off in the distance, like he was lost in thought. He then looked up and spoke.

 

"Derrick was the Alpha when it was just us. Brandon's my protector. My heart says I belong with them, but I keep seeing me talking with Dad as King. I don't know what to do."

I smiled and said "You can do both buddy. I think you should be in Derrick's pack. You can still give me your insights, when you need to. Remember, even when you're in Derrick's pack, you're still in mine, since everyone is."

Morgan smiled and nodded, and went back to eating. Derrick then said "I think we should have an assembly at the school tomorrow, and explain the changes. Everyone that's had their first hunt will scent me and know something's up."

"That sound like a good idea son. And let's discuss the packs after that, in the office downtown. Right now, I think you and your mates should prepare for your mating, and discuss bites? Meet us at the rock at 10. Who should attend?"

 

"Everyone that lives here is family Dad, they're all welcome. All the pups and their mates, grandparents, Opa, Grand-pére. Tommy and Leonard, Andrew and Amie, Lucas and LeAnn, Frederick. Is Uncle George still in town?"

"All the princes are still in town. We're supposed to meet with them downtown in the morning." Josh said. "I'll call George and invite him. Any of the others?"

Derrick thought for a moment, then said "If they all come, it's fine, but I'm only close to Uncle George."

Joshua nodded and called George as Derrick turned to Brandon "Call Uncle Mike, ask if he and David will please come." As Brandon made the call, Derrick turned to me "I suppose we have to figure out where they belong too, but they're family."

I smiled and stood, calling all the young pups and explaining what was happening tonight. Joshua and Eric took them inside to get cleaned up as my mates and I headed to our room. Bea fed the girls, then handed them off to Billy and I for wrist feeding. She and Scott gathered blankets and candles, and headed for the rock.

 

At 9:45 Billy and I carried the girls out to the gathered family at the rock. We handed them to Mary and Donna, then I stood in front of the rock and sent a message to Joshua to bring the throuple out. They walked towards me with Derrick in the middle, holding the hands of his mates as he led them to face me. They took turns exchanging vows they had written, and shared kisses as I said "As King of the Council I declare you mated. Let those who have issue, come to me."

 

I stepped aside as Derrick helped Stephanie onto the blankets that were spread on the rock. The gathered family watched as the young lovers proceeded to make gentle love to each other, sharing their mating bites and completing their bond. Stephanie had a mating mark over each breast, while both boys had one over their left breast and one on their left shoulder blade.

 

Everyone silently headed for the house, leaving Scott, Bea, Billy, Blake, Brandie and I alone with the new mates. They stood, then Blake and Brandie gave each of them a loving hug and kiss, welcoming them to their family. Scott, Billy, Bea and I did the same, and when Derrick pulled out of my hug, I noticed tears in his eyes.

 

He noticed my look of concern and he smiled "They're tears of joy, Dad. My last time making love as a human was with you, and my first time as a vampire was with my mates. No one has ever been more blessed than I am right now."
