I've recently noticed that, when a new chapter posts, it doesn't always update in both directories. If you're following the story, keep checking in both "Adult/Youth" and "Sci-Fi/Fantasy".

 

Hearing that you're enjoying the story REALLY makes my day, so drop a line. Even if you just say `Hey, I'm reading it.', you really encourage me to keep going. Your feedback is taken to heart at Jst4fun2nyt@gmail.com.

 

The sex isn't a major part of this story, 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.

 

This is supposed to be a companion to this story, but I'm struggling to write it.

And this is pure kinky fantasy. It might be beyond what some of you like, but...

Chapter 85

 

As we went down the hall, Nikolaos told me he was 11 when his family's car hit an animal while driving in the mountains near Sophia. The car rolled over the side of the mountain and it was a miracle he had survived with only the damage to his lumbar spine and several broken bones. He could stand, with assistance from braces, but found it much easier to get around using his chair. As we exited the elevator on the residence floor, he was telling me his future plans.

 

"I had hoped to work on staff here at the castle, as soon as I was old enough. Demetri had promised me I could start as a footman when I turned 17. Now, I don't know what I want to do. I'm not smart enough for college." When I objected, he said "Oh, no Sire, I'm not stupid, I'm just not passionate about studying, and I really enjoy helping people."

I said "Please feel free to say I'm getting too personal, but what are your needs? As far as physical care. Are you independent?"

"Grandfather modified our bathroom so I can bathe or shower. He helps me with the things I can't do for myself."

As we entered the dining room, the old man looked up and said "Yes, but I'm old. I'm not going to be around much longer. I've asked the King to find care for you."

 

As I had predicted, my pups were all naked as the day they were born. Jesse ran over to Nikolaos and said "I've never seen a chair with wheels. It looks fun!"

Before I could correct Jesse, Nikolaos had picked him up and set him in his lap saying "Hold on." He then grabbed his wheels and sped around the room. Jesse's giggles told me how much he was enjoying the ride, and it ended as Nikolaos wheeled to a stop by Jesse's chair and said "Your dinner awaits, Your Highness." Then lifted my pup into the booster seat.

 

Andrew directed one of the footmen to remove a chair, so Nikolaos could roll up to the table. As he did so, I said "Nikolaos, are you familiar with the term `body man'?"

"Oh yes Sire, a body man is a personal assistant that handles all the minutia for a leader. Handling anything from travel arrangements to fetching food to carrying luggage."

 

I nodded and said "Yes, but in my case, Prince Billy does a lot of that so I suppose I don't really want a body man as much as someone to handle the smaller things for me."

"Oh, a gopher Sire?"

 

I grinned and said "Yes, but I doubt I will introduce you to Queen Elizabeth as my `gopher'. I think we would call you my personal assistant, and your duties can be sorted out as time goes on. Does that sound like something you would be interested in, Nikolaos?"

 

He looked to his great grandfather and, after seeing his nod, turned to me and said "May I make two requests, Sire?" I nodded for him to go on, so he said "Please, call me Niko? And, may I be changed, Sire?"

"You do understand, Niko, that changing you isn't likely to heal your back? And there is a risk of death."

"I know all of that, Sire. I accepted that I'm in a wheelchair for the rest of my life shortly after I came back from rehab. I can walk a few feet with braces and a cane, but I'm more mobile with wheels, and certainly faster! I just know that, if you're going to honor me by allowing me to be your personal assistant, I want to serve in that role as long as you are King."

 

I turned to Dad and said "He wants me to change him, Tyler wants me to change her family. How are there still humans in the world?"

Before he could answer, Opa spoke up with "Most packs kept the secret so well that we were never asked, Sire. Also, a weaker vampire is more likely to kill the human they're trying to change, so humans that know about us know the risk of death is very high."

I shook my head and said "We're in the residence, Opa, you can call me Greg."

"I've loved you like a grandson from the first time you asked to clear my snow, but you are now my King. The only ones who can call you by name are your mates, Sire, and even they should only do so in private."


I nodded and asked "I've made several changelings and haven't killed anyone. Exactly how high is the risk of death? And how does it vary?"


"A vampire in their first life, attempting to change a human will almost certainly lead to death. Unless that vampire is an Alpha or Beta. Our leaders naturally have a stronger constitution. The chances of success slowly increase as the vampire ages, but even at 1000 years old, a non-ranked vampire will kill half of those they try to change. Even Alphas have been known to kill humans they were trying to change. This is why changing was traditionally reserved for the Alpha. Many vampires have killed the chosen mates of their own children through ignorance of these facts."

 

I sighed and started rambling "I already have 13 pups. I can't be changing everyone that comes along. Don't misunderstand me Tyler, I love you to death, and I really do feel for your son's situation, but if I change him, and don't change the rest of your family? That would just make things awkward between you and your sons. Do you risk your lives letting a lessor vampire attempt the change? And like with Niko, it isn't likely to heal him."

Billy took my hand and squeezed it as Tyler said "I know the risks, Sire. I do understand that you can't change us all, and I'll have to talk to Chris but, if he agrees, will you at least speak with Easton? Give him that option?"

I lowered my gaze and heard my mates through the bond. Our minds were made up. I looked up and said "I will speak to Chris and then Easton, but it is his decision, and he will be my son. He will live here. That is nonnegotiable." I turned to Niko and said "I cannot change you. I will not prevent another from doing it, but I cannot. My asking you to be my personal assistant is not tied to your changing, and I should also say that, even if you do not choose to work for me in any way, your great grandfather has earned you a lifetime under my care. Whatever you need will be provided."

Before Niko could reply, Opa spoke up "Sire, may I change the boy?"

I frowned and said "And have my uncle as my personal servant?"

 

"Uncles and cousins mean little to us, Sire. And before you answer, let me share my motives. First, the boy sincerely desires to serve you, Sire. Second, it will allow Silas to pass on in peace, knowing the boy has a long, secure future. And third, and most important, you asked me earlier to look into us `coming out' as you put it. Letting the world at large know that we exist. Well, one problem I expect is a massive influx of humans wanting changed because they think it will heal them of everything. Having Niko at your side, in his chair, will demonstrate that we're the same as humans. Having Easton as your son, with the effects of his cancer still showing, will reinforce that."

"But the biggest negative about cancer isn't the symptoms, it's the death. Easton will have avoided that, so he will be a poster boy for humans with cancer, banging down the castle doors to be changed." Joshua said, then turned to Tyler and said "I'm sorry to sound so cold, but it has to be said."

 

"Easton will decide for himself. I've already committed to that, and we will deal with whatever fallout there is when it comes." I said, ending that argument. Then I turned to Niko and said "I said I will not prevent another from changing you, but if Opa does it, your risk of death is increased. He is not an Alpha, although he is 1000 years old and a duke. The choice is yours."

 

Niko looked again to his great grandfather, then turned to me and said "May I speak freely, Sire?" I nodded, so he said "If your hesitation to change me yourself is because you don't want your son as a servant, you're using a double standard. Your husband is your Beta, and serves you. Your son is the Crown Prince, and serves you, you have sons who are Alphas, and serving you. If your hesitation is because you don't want a cripple for a son..."

I interrupted him and said "That is unfair."

"I'm sorry, Sire, but it is fair. You are a King, and there have been Kings who have hidden their children who were not perfect. Just over 100 years ago, King George of England kept his son hidden away because the boy had epilepsy."

 

My mates had been verbally abusing me through the bond throughout this conversation, so I got up and walked to stand behind Niko. I pulled his chair out so he was facing me, then leaned down and put my hands on his shoulders so I could look him in the eyes. I said "I would be proud to have you as my son."

 

Tears filled his eyes as he wrapped his arms around my neck and pulled himself up from his chair. His excitement was short lived, as his blanket fell, revealing his catheter to everyone. He quickly fell back, grabbing his blanket and apologizing for `making everyone see that'.

 

I helped him with his blanket as I said "My other sons are usually naked, and if you want, you can be as well. Stop being embarrassed about the catheter. Just like the chair, it is part of you, and we accept that. If you choose to wear diapers, we accept that. If you don't, and have an accident, we accept that. Do you understand me?"

 

He nodded shyly, saying "Yes, Sire... er Father?" Then he grinned and pulled his shirt and blanket off, tucking them in the pouch on the back of the chair.

 

I smiled and winked at him as I said "My other pups call me Dad." I then turned to Tyler and said "My newest son will need fitted for suits. Please make pants to allow for a catheter and urine bag, and others to allow for a diaper. I'm sure you've had customers with similar situations before?"

Tyler smiled and nodded as she said "I have, Sire. I will measure him as soon as everyone is finished eating."

 

I looked from Joshua to Opa as I said "While I hate to discuss business at this table, this is one issue we will need to address, and we will need a lot of discussion. Vampires have been changing the occasional human for millennia, but I'm beginning to understand the reason for getting permission from an Alpha. Until we sort all this out, spread the word that Alphas should consult their duke before changing a human. When we reveal our nature, we need to have the ability to deflect the requests that will come."

Joshua said "I agree, Sire. Before we do that, we need to sort out who each of the dukes are responsible for."

 

I laughed and said "That is probably a good idea Josh. Gather the dukes in my office tomorrow after lunch." Then, I looked at Tyler and said "Please take Niko and get him measured quickly. Is it possible to have a suit for myself, Joshua, Billy, and Niko by noon tomorrow?" She nodded, so I went on "Niko, hurry back. I want you to meet the rest of your family, and their plane is about to land."

 

Tyler stood and took Niko to where she had been working. Mr. Megalos stood as if to leave but I stopped him, saying "If I am to be your great grandson's father, I believe that makes us family? I will not insist, but I would be honored if you would allow me to move you into the family residence. Niko will be moving here, and I know he wants to keep his connection with you as long as he can."

He was ready to disagree until I said this last part. On hearing how it would allow him to remain close to Niko, he nodded and said "Of course, Sire."

 

I looked around the table and smiled, saying "The plane with our mates and pups just landed. The helicopters should be in the courtyard soon. Joshua, Billy, our pups and I will greet them there, and I hope all of you will be here when we come back."

 

As I was saying this, Tyler and Niko rejoined us. I picked up Charlie and reached for Jesse's hand. Billy picked up Davie and took Jeremy's hand. Joshua grabbed Chipper's hand and we started towards the hall. Tanya started to bring Niko along but he argued that he wasn't our son yet. I turned my head, looked into his eyes and smiled. He blushed and nodded, then allowed his sister push him.

 

I could hear the helicopters overhead as we approached the doors to the courtyard. One of the Royal Guard stood blocking the door, explaining that there was danger of flying debris and asking us to wait. I nodded, and we all waited until the three helicopters had landed and their rotors had stopped spinning.

 

Joshua, Billy, and I wanted desperately to run, but since we had small pups holding our hands, we simply moved as fast as their short legs would allow. I saw Scott step out of the nearest helicopter, then he reached in and took one of the girls. Bea followed shortly, reaching back and getting the other. They both ran to us and as Billy embraced Scott, I put my empty arm around Bea, kissing her passionately. Scott and Bea traded after a few minutes, and I looked up to see Joshua holding Samantha, with tears in his eyes.

 

I looked around and saw Derrick, Brandon, and Morgan getting out of a second helicopter, followed by their mates. Frederick, Grandma Mary, and Grand-pére were headed our way from the third helicopter, along with a woman I assumed was the mysterious Grace Burroughs.
