The progress of my project has been a success for the most part. I have had set backs and failures along the way over the last four months as well.

The conclusion will take me a bit of time but it’s coming.
James sat by the fireplace waiting as an image of a beautiful woman in her early forties appeared in the flames of the fireplace. She smiled at him.
“Happy Birthday Harry. Today your real journey begins today.” Ava Nightingale said in voice filled with warmth and pleasure.
James smiled at her. “Hello mother. Your looking well. Dad tells me you have some job offers to talk to me about. I’m up for hearing them but I also have somethings I wish to discuss with you.”
Ava’s image blinked in confusion at him and then studied his face closely and her smile faded away. “Something happened. Are you alright? Is your father with you?”
James nodded and tried to keep up his smile on his face in order not to overall worry his mother. “Yes. We got a visitor to our home looking for dad. He and I dealt with it there was also something else that happened.”
Ava shook her head. “Can you give me a little bit more detail on what or who came looking for your father?”
James looked over at his father who was now busy repairing the large hole left by the destruction of the Dementor. Angus glanced back at him and smiled and waved him back to his conversation with Ava.
James looked back at his mother. “It a creature Dad had been hunting for the-his boss. It was a dangerous creature. He had to use his hybrid weapon on it. I used my Patronus. We destroyed it so now we’re all safe now.”
“Hybrid weapon? Is that what he calls that silly monstrous weapon now?”
Angus started laughing in the background as he started to his work with some plywood, hammer and nails. He said nothing else so James focused on his mother.
“No. That’s what how I think of his 1911SC. A hybrid of magi craftsmanship and non-magi technological advance. It is very powerful weapon he uses to focus his power.”
“Angus allowed you to go into battle with him?” Ava asked in a strange tone.
James nodded. “Yes. I am of age. I told him so and he accepted me as an adult.”
“Harry. Your father did not need your assistance. He is a powerful wizard in his own who has not yet even reached his full measure of his powers. He will become the most powerful wizard in the modern era. You come a long line of powerful lords of magic and you are his heir. You have decades to go before you even touch his level and you are his heir.”
James nodded but still stared at his mother. “I know. But I am an adult now. I am a man. If I am to achieve me promise then I must-”
“-If?!” Ava said at him in shocked surprised. “You are Harry Potter. You will become every bit of strong wizard as your father and his fathers before him. Why are you doubting yourself at the beginning of your rise?”
James looked away. “I-I felt dad’s power when he took hold of his weapon. It was like a blanket of raw power and intent to destroy anything that got in his way. I don’t know. I know if I can live up to it.” He said honestly.
“James.” Angus called out to his son.
James looked up toward his father. Angus stared at him. “You are your own man now I’m proud of who you right now.. But, your still my son. Your mother and I didn’t leave nothing out in raising you. You hear me?”
James stared at his father and then nodded. “Yes Sir.” He said and then turned back to his mother that was studying him.
Ava was quietly staring at him as he finished explaining to her his thoughts on his father’s weapon. “Indeed. Did something else happen before the Dementor arrived.”
James frowned. “Yes. I had a dream about the night you sent me to live with father.” He said calmly.
Ava stared at him. “Did your vision involve me or my parts of the events that night.”
James grimaced but shook his head. “No. The dream was centered around Professor Longbottom, Tan Tan and dad having a short chat before they handed me over to dad and left. It doesn’t make any sense. Why am I having dreams like this now of all times?!”
“It wasn’t a dream. I made a mistake and underestimated how jealous people are of the Potter name and how many enemies your father has. Your father is a powerful wizard. Your father could have had any woman he wanted before after me.” She said staring at him.
Angus snorted in laughter and James looked at him. “What? Mom likes you a lot.”
“Tell your mother if she’s so grateful toward me then she can come around the house and I can provide her couple more kids for my grand legacy.”
James stared at his father. “Dad. Are you serious!?”
“Tell her!” Angus ordered.
James turned his head back to Ava’s concerned face. He smiled. “Dad says sense your so grateful to him for giving you a child then he would gladly provide you with more children if you were so inclined.”
Ava stared at him. “Harry. Now that you are in your adulthood. You’ll have to decide the course you need to take in life. I have positions in my company in the entry level of magical spell engineering. You can have it any time you want?”
“James. What’s her answer to my question.” Angus asked.
James’ face flushed with heat. “Mother. Ah Dad would like an answer to his question.”
Ava sighed. “Tell your father I will consider it when you have figured out your course in life and gone off on your own however, I will be around later in the week to have a cup of tea with him when I have finished my work. Remind him I still have the port key he crafted for me.”
James turned to his father. “Mom said she has to finish up some stuff at work and send you an Owl when she’s freed up but she also still has the port key your gave her so be ready when she comes by for a cup of tea.”
Angus nodded. “Alright. That’s good. I’ll do my best to convince your mother in bed when hit the sheets. Does your mother know about the Horn Serpent Patronus of yours?”
James nodded his head silently. “Yeah. Dad could give us a moment.”
Angus held up his hands. “Alright. Alright. I’ll leave you and your mother be. I got to go get other tools in the back down go near the front until I get back.” He said and then held up his hand a magical shield went up around the front of the entrance before he turned and left.
James turned back to his mother to see her smiling at him again. “What?”
“Your not coming to London.” Ava said with a nod her her head. “Your staying in the States?” She said with and assurance in her voice of it.
James sighed. “No. I’m not sure right now about it. I’m interested in getting an Auror position here. The plan will still be the same. I’ll work my way up the ministry and then head into the position of President like we’ve planned out.” James said.
Ava nodded. “I hear a but somewhere. What do you want?”
“Power.” James said softly. “I want what Dad has. Mother. Dad is powerful. He has real power.”
Ava pursed her lips but nodded. “Yes he does.”
“Have you seen him use that weapon he has. He killed a Dementors with it. He shoot fireballs of lightning out of it without being drained of any energy it seems. It was wicked. I have seen or read about anyone do what he does without using a phoenix core wand. He’s even the president here. How is that possible.”
Ava shrugged. “Maybe you need to ask him but at this point I wouldn’t ask him why he never chose to become the President of the American Congress of magic.”
James froze. “Why wouldn’t you?” He asked her.
Ava narrowed her focus on him. “Because it’s not a good question. Your father has his own reasons for why he’s in the position he’s in. Your a back sight you have the power to see into the past events of peoples and hear their thoughts. It’s a gift that takes time to develop over time and your going to end up working out the gift backwards and and present. No. I can’t explain it to you. You’ll have to experience it yourself. You’ll eventually find out the reason for that question but a better question that serves your purpose of gaining power is-”
Ava paused to give James time to think of the answer. He frowned shaking his head. He couldn’t think of it the only thing that came to his mind was-”
“Say it!” Ava said.
“Why did he stop using a wand?” I asked. “Did you ever use your back sight to see into his past? Did you ever find the answer?”
Ava shook her head. “No. No matter how many times I’ve tried. I can’t figure it out and I don’t know the reason he chose me. It’s like he walks outside of our reach to see into the events and patterns of the past or the power of oracles to see into the future. I don’t know. But, if you want to become like your father or gain his level power then you need to ask him or-”
“-I need to ask him to teach me become just as powerful as he is.” James said softly.
Ava nodded. “Yes. You can become his apprentice and shadow him and you’ll find your answer.”
“Mother. I read letter. Do you still think that way about yourself?” James said.
Ava stared at him. “It doesn’t matter.”
James pursed his lips. “I think your a powerful and a brilliant wizard. I think that’s the reason Dad choose you and wanted to start a family with-”
“-I have to go Harry. I love you. If your father approves of taking you on as his apprentice then you must obey his ever command and never doubt any decision he makes is to protect you because he loves you. We both love you and that is the only thing that matters. Remember that.” Ava said before her image disappeared and the fireplace became empty.
James stared at the empty fireplace and wondered if he had gone to far but then he knew that nothing was going to stop him.
I stared at the profile picture of the kid and frowned at the D8 at the bottom of the image. I wondered about that as I scrolled down the image to get only a passing few details on the man from his typical hobbies of gaming and racing bikes. Not much else.
“So is this kid a new G.E.H. model or one of the old ones on his last leg?”
Valkyrie was silent.
I looked up see her gaze focused intently focused on the skyway ignoring me. She had heard the question.
I scrolled down the entire file and profile with a flick of my finger on the screen and read the file. No mention on what type of G.E.H he was. In fact no mention he was a G.E.H at all.
“How do you know the kid is a tech born?” Valkyrie asked. “Is it your eye?”
“I just made a guess because of the name. It’s a classification for GEHs. So if he isn’t a G.E.H his pack mother most be one. What I read from the file he’s addicted to attending music concerts and cheery Bomb cigarettes. We can start with interviewing his coworkers at the runner station he works out of to get a feel for his pattern.”
“Are you fucking with me?!” Valkyrie asked.
I shook my head. “No.”
“Your a fucking with me. Be honest. How can you make that thought leap?”
“Focus on the job.” I said.
“Tell me, Damn it.”
I snorted. “It’s the name and his eyes. He looks sixteen but his eyes and name tell me he’s at least maybe in his sixties by human standards but by GEH that would still put him in a youngster category. So what are we doing here Valkyrie? Are we hunting for this kid or just trying to find out where he is.”
Silence met my words. She looked away from me and continued driving. “You find em. I’m going to bag him. You don’t need to do anything else.”
Damn it. I thought she was done with his shit but apparently the price tag or something else was going on here. I saw her shaking her head but she wasn’t looking at me.
“Just leave it. I’m not going to explain and you don’t have to over think it. It’s just one job. Where do we start?”
“I just told you. We start with his friends. They’ll tell us what concert he’s going to or whatever trouble he might or might not be into.”
I waited not seeing my ride any where. I wondered about it. I heard man’s heavy foot steps behind. But, I didn’t hear the sound of a blaster being charged up to fire on me. I wondered about that.
“You caused a very big stirr tonight. Mr. Mystery. For what? A trinket in a safe? You missed the gold cards.” Glassgo said behind me.
The hairs on the back of my neck stood up. I gripped the railing for support.
“I didn’t mess anything your Majesty? I took what I came here for. I’m not a greedy man or stupid enough to test my luck with you seeing how easy you made it for me to get into your penthouse. Hmm.”
“What gave me away?” Glassgo asked.
“You haven’t killed me yet. I wonder why?” I said.
“No no. That wasn’t it. Ask a better question. I’ll wait.” Glassgo countered.
“Why let that asshole around your princess? That makes no sense at all. Were you testing him or her? That didn’t sit well with my thinking for how Kings operate in regards to females that belong to their pack. After that. Nothing was right at all about this job to my taste.”
“Finley has been overstepping his boundaries of late and his sudden interest in my daughter has become annoying. Your arrival and whatever you said to her was impressive and got the ball rolling toward me removing him from my daughter’s life. It was very impressive. Would you prefer to be thrown down the stairs or combat ritual killing. Your employers can get the Data drive off your dead body of course. Your pack will receive their payment for the job.”
I laughed. “You are a funny charecter your Majesty. No. I prefer to handle things my own way. Good night to you.” I said before I dove off the side and did a dead man fall to the city street.
I smiled feeling the rush and my heart racing. I started to close my eyes until I saw a black hover cabbie racing up toward me with the passenger door open.
When it got close enough I grabbed a hold on the safety handle inside and pulled myself into the cabbie as the door slid closed and I heard Eddie Williams singing his new song Rage against the Machine Empire on Valkrie’s speaker system.
“Your late.” I said staring at the back dark hair of my partner/sister.
“I had a date with a pretty red head for ten minutes. She couldn’t get enough of me.” Valkrie said with arrogant tone in her voice. “I was listening though to the last bit of the conversation you had with Glassgo. What are we going to do about getting paid?”
“Sell the drive back to the client at double the price or to their competitors. They left out details and tried to do a double cross that’s written in our contract with them in case they decided to play games. Give me my computer?”
Valkrie snorted loudly and slipped me my laptop from the front seat of the cabbie. “I can’t believe you snuck that by them in the contract.”
I smiled. “It pays high dividends to have an ex-contractual writer in your business, sister. Alright. Time to do some research.”
“On clients to sell the data drive?”
I shook my head. “I already have a list of them. Give me a second.” I said searching for the image in of the painting on the virtual cyberspace I found it. It was a map to a location. “What are you keeping in that location I wonder Mr. Glassgo?”
“Xander. You sure it’s a good idea to tango with this Glassgo guy? You said we were in this business for the money and nothing personal.” She reminded me.
I thought about it. I shrugged and closed the search to log onto the black market for another runner job. “Okay. I got a ten minute job in seven hours. Your taking lead. You game?”
She stared at me with a sly grin. “So now you want to be honest about the reason you came over here.”
I shrugged. “I came over for a conversation so it would be nice to call you by a name you prefer to be called by other then the name I have in my head when I first saw you.”
“Which is what? Miss Piece Sweet of Ass?” She asked with genuine humor. She was laughing at herself. Interesting.
I smiled. “No. Miss Nice Legs was the name. Remind me to buy your father a drink some time for his excellent parenting.”
“My name is Delilah Bowings. And if you want to thank someone then my uncle Sam would be the one. My father was busy trying to become a king during my childhood.” She said with no hint of self pitty in her voice.
I nodded staring at her. “Your a Nomad Princess.”
Delilah merely smiled. “Not presently. I’m a executive. Are you hunting for a mate?”
I smiled shaking my head. “Oh no. Just a little conversation.” I said and looked around to see Glassgo was talking with a executive with a purple pin attached to his suit jacket. Hmm. I didn’t recognize the face but the offical executive class pin noted he was a industry high class professional ruler.
“That’s Hector Finley. He’s recently become attached to Roberto. He’s making a bid to become a King of the purple district. He’s looking to get funding and support from Roberto.” Delilah said.
I nodded. “Who is Roberto to you? Your father or…oh. He’s your father then.” I said noticing the change in her cool expression. “Does Finley know Glassgo is a the current king around here?”
Delilah chuckled softly. “You are a strange one. I thought you were just party crasher executive class looking for a fun night out. Purple district like many parts of the city and dream realm has many kings but we have no definitive leader. However, Roberto doesn’t seem to hold the signature pendent of the district so-“
“-Do you really believe that?”
Delilah smiled and shrugged. “If Roberto had succeeded in becoming a King of the purple district why would he attempt these games. He failed. Are you here to gain a job from him or do you garner something more. You’ll have to get in line Finley is about to position himself to gain the position.”
She really was young. Too damn young. However, that’s just what I needed to use to distract Glassgo. I was going have to let down my mask and do a heavy amount of lying.
“Power is power. A pretty Pin on your jacket isn’t a sign of it. It is a party favor that fools use to impress other idiots of same mind.. That idiot talking with Glassgo is about to be snuffed out. Men like your father won’t abide his kind of cowardice. You should know that already growing up in the circles you come out of.”
Delilah flinched back and stared at me. “Did my pack send you? Why are you-“
“If you have a thing for the Finley guy then you better move. Glassgo is herding him to one of the back rooms.” I said pointing a thumb toward the scene in play.
Delilah hurried away shoving me aside and started toward Glassgo. Glassgo had a weird smile on his face as his daughter started yelling at him in some weird southern accents while Finley was trying to calm her down and apologizing for her.
I made my way toward the secret door that was the back way into the room while the whole room.was distracted.
It was a breezy spring night as the crowd packed in close together heading toward the private condo where the big gala was to take place. A light rain had followed and left a fresh scent to the air and glow on the streets and buildings. Advertising for Zades cigarettes and Burner Detapads flashed on nearby buildings. It was fine night in the purple district of Newark City State. There were five private security druids patrolling the perimeter of the building owned by the millionaire executive Roberto Glassgo. His corporation’s two fully armored druid helicopters were flying overhead around the block taking video footage of the crowd and ready for a sure scene of trouble. This was little bit more security then I had on seeing. However, the extra guards in plain clothes that were staged on the block weren’t mentioned at all in the report for the job.
My new eye took in all these details including the ID numbers on the druids. The plan, Valkrie and I had carefully constructed and had gone to hell the second I had stepped out of the cabbie and started to analyze the situation with cybernetic hyper vision eye. It was time to shift things into a different direction. A wealthy couple pushed me aside to get up to the front of the line heading into the gala.
I was tripped up a bit but I righted myself against a city trash bin. I got out my cigarette and lighter. I put the cherry scented Zades cigarette to my lips and I took a long drag. I exhaled smoke and then I dropped my cigarette to the ground and put it out with my boot heel before pocketing my lighter and pack and then I took out a black box the same size as my cigarette pack and threw it into the trash bin.
The plan had been to use a cover story as a bodyguard for one of the client’s friends. That was a no go. I couldn’t trust any information or help the client had given me and my partner now. We should have done more research luckily I was never hopeful anything would go according to plan. I spotted someone up ahead and focused my cybernetic eye on a possible cover I could use to get inside was up ahead in the crowd.
He was a Pugy face dark plain haircut corporate class man in a black tuxedo. He had an openly friendly wholesome smile with a young average looking young lady in black dress close at his side. New corporate types. The legacy executive classes ignored the couple and the middle class trash corpos made snide looks at them. He was my cover.
Hmm. Okay. Now I needed a ticket inside. I looked around until my eyes spotted a high profile executive having a heated business conversation on his Detapad with a employee. He was fully engrossed in his conversation perfectly ignoring the street traffic around him while his 5’10 security forces plain clothes bodyguard waited close at his side.
I smiled. Easy mark. I started for him taking out my Detapad and I started having a text message with Valkrie updating her on the situation as I headed to the mark and asking for information.
I was close to the mark and the bodyguard had spotted me but he was prepared to ignore me at first sense I hadn’t looked up once and I knew I didn’t look like much of a threat. His training kicked in though as he still positioned himself to protect his client from me running into the mark. He needn’t have bothered. Hell, he really should have stayed home tonight. It was going to be short night for him.
I bomped into the guard hard sending him into his client and I dropped my Detapad kicking it into the direction of my mark. “Sorry about that.” I said but I still had my eyes on Detapad and was moving toward it.
The Mark snatched up the Detapad shoving his bodyguard aside as he marched over toward me. He got close up in my face pushing the Detapad into my hand. I looked up at him in surprise making my eyes go wide for effect. “Hey. I-“
“-Watch were your going Basic. You shouldn’t even be in this district. Get the hell out of here before I have you reported to private security forces.” He said dominantly.
I held up my hands and headed off walked away and mixed into the rhythm of the crowd walking toward the party with my Detapad and the mark’s invitation in my pocket. I had to hurry though because my cover was getting close to the doors heading into the private condo building. I checked my Detapad though before I neared my next target and saw Valkrie give me detailed report on the target. I scanned the information with my eye commiting it to memory before putting away my Detapad and switched into my new persona for the night. I wasn’t Xander Onyx tonight. I was Charlie. Yeah. Charlie Kent. Fun loving new corporate money. Here to have a fun time and be everybody’s best friend.
I sat down to play a game with Azibo as he set up the board. It felt normal just moving from the city to the village. There was still a weirdness to it.
“What was your life like in the city?” Azibo asked.
I shrugged. “Not much to tell. I grew up fighting in the streets. Omarion and me teamed up to survive.
“What happened next?” Azibo asked.
I smiled. “We grew up. Got jobs in the security forces and partnered together because no one else trusts Roins. We worked good together and decided to start out own pack sense everyone already thought of us as brothers we became brothers officially with the help of a silent sponsor who acted as our official pack mother.”
I frowned as I thought about what happened next. “Things went to shit after couple of years right when Omarion was set to be promoted to the executive class. It was my fault.. I cost us our jobs by failing to show up for an important job and then I fucked him over when I tried to use the name of our silent third member of our pack to get us out of it.”
Omarion took all the heat for me and spent a year in the Pin with hard labor in the diamond mines. When he got out I didn’t know how he would greet me. I just showed up to give him some credits and my car.
Omarion just hugged me and asked me to him to get him some work to do. He’s never mentioned that time again but I promised myself I would always be there for him.”
Azibo smiled. “You have a question for me. Ask it.”
“So why did you change me into an elemental alien?”
Azibo shook his head. “You are what you are. There is no dragon that can change mortals into what we are.”
“So you knew-” I stopped because Azibo shook his head.
“No. We do not have absolute knowledge. We are different from the mortals but not better. Show me. Your days in the city.”
I thought of my childhood and youth growing up in the city.
I stopped. “You said my mother took me from you. I have to ask. Am I really your son or was that some alien bullshit metaphor so-“
“Largo.” Azibo said patiently. “Do you believe Ren’s relationship with Lightning baby is metaphorical?! Do you really think they do not have sex?!” He said and then grinned at me. “You are still so very young and adorable.”
I could feel my face burning in embarrassment. Damn. “Okay so then why do I look like-“
“You look fine. You look as you should. These forms we have are clothing for us Largo. Nothing more. You have time. You are only days old by our lifespan. What gifts have you brought back from the city?” Azibo asked.
I sighed as I got up and stood in the middle of village and snapped my fingers.
Azibo frowned at the solar panels. “What are those?”
I smiled. “I plan on upgrading the village a little. So you and the villagers can least stay up to date on the goings on in the dream realm.”
Music played softly a few feet away on my work station as I read from Garret Wild’s Dreamer’s sailing adventure in the Outlands. It was a charming story about the first Nomad’s attempts and success story of sailing the desert sand dunes of the Outlands.
Cooper had been born in the Outlands and had traveled out there every year with my sons teaching them the ways of his ancestors and taking them on the Rite of Passage in a more controlled environment and with his guidance and protection. I wondered what it was like.
The music stopped. I felt the presence of one of sons and looked up in the direction of my son to frowned at Kai and another young man with him. The other man was a corpo dressed in a black suit and with silver blue eyes. I put my book down setting it on the couch and facing them. “Kai. Who is this you’ve brought to your father’s house?”
The man did a mocking bow to me and smiled looking around the room. “It is a pleasure to finally meet you. G. E. H. model 0042M. Your son was gracious to allow me this audience with you.”
“Your an Executive or security Chief from the company then. I can’t go back with you. Cooper bought my contract.” I said frowning at him and keeping Kai in my side vision as he edged around me. “Why are you here?”
“Terry Serio. Do you know that name?” He asked.
I shook my head edging around the couch and putting distance between me and the both of them. “No. No. I’ve never heard of him. Who is he? Another G.E.H. or rival corpo?” I asked.
The man shook his head. “No one important at this stage. Just a solo hired to retrieve something taken from the company. He supposedly failed in his job but that was a lie. He found the item. He just decided to pocket the item to sell for later and put it somewhere safe until he could retrieve it again. Silverback. You must be knowledgeable about of it.”
I frowned at him. “Yes. I am. I don’t have it and whoever this Terry Serio is didn’t give it to me. I’m not lying.”
He smiled and I saw strange white glow come from his eyes that radiated a heat in them. “Oh I know your telling the truth the problem is you Silverback is inside you. It wouldn’t be wise to fight us. Your son has no choice in the matter. He owes us big and we have agreed to compensate him for his betrayal by funding his rise in Cooper’s pack.” He said calmly.
I felt a punch of invisible hit my chest and then the feeling of ice started creeping from my chest and spread all over my body. I fell to my knees as fought hard to breath.
“Just come along with Mr. Ice and me, Momma. They’ll fix you right back up with no memory about what happened and I’ll get you back to the pack safe and sound. You ain’t human so they’ll fix you up nice right and you’ll be seeing me better then all my brothers soon enough.” Kai said coming up behind me and started putting electric hand cuffs on my wrists behind my back.
I stared at Mr. Ice. I could feel my breath being stolen from my body. “Lying to my son about the Silverback isn’t going to get you-” I paused Mr. Ice brought out a laser knife. “I see. So you’ll be doing the operation here then?”
“What?! Yo. That’s not what-“
“Be silent.” Mr. Ice said calmly and Kai closed his mouth. “There is no need to worry. First I get what was promised to me and then I put your mother asleep, reprogram her and the next morning she will have no idea what is missing from her body. Easy!”
I shook my head slowly. “Lies. This will not go as easy you would like.” I said drawing power from Silverback and drawing it up to the surface around my body.
Mr. Ice nodded. “Yes. I will. It saves time. All I need is the Silverback in your chest and yes it is inside you. It was put inside you before you came out of the deep sleep before birth. He kept your secret to the end but your explosive show at the park finally revealed what was inside you from the beginning. Now this won’t take long though it will hurt a bit.” He said and proceeded to drive the knife down toward my chest.

I lay in bed at peace.. My body was still a glow with power but my excessive violent energy was stomped down. I could relax. I lay next to Cooper who was rubbing his large hand on my backside smoking a thick cigar. My spirit was calm under his masculine care.
“Thank you.” I told him.
Cooper shook his finger at me. “No thanks required. So what was all that a few hours ago with Kang and Omarion?”
“Mr. Astro was on a case and needed a distraction to hide him as his pack brother. I provided it and then things got out of hand when I amplified their powers with my energy.”
Cooper nodded. “Did you mean any of that stuff? The words you said to Kang?”
“Of course. I love my children however Kang is twice blessed by Lightning Baby and the flame deva because of you. That’s why it got out of hand. I lost control of my emotions. Why?”
“Damn. I wish you had lied about it. The others are going to get jealous now.”
“I didn’t mean-“
Cooper held up his hand. “I know. You didn’t do anything wrong. You were just expressing your love and pride of your sons. Legendary flame king. I like that. Thank you.”
“Why are you taking all this so well?”
Cooper frowned. “Why wouldn’t I be? I just the best news I’ve ever had in my life along with some great sex. I’m winning at life.” He said and then his detapad buzzed on the night stand I froze.
Cooper stared at me. “I got you. Don’t worry.” He said and reached for Detapad and looked at the screen. He stared at his screen and then sent a short reply and but it back on the nightstand.
“Is it the kids?”
Cooper shook his head while rubbing my backside. “Nope. I made a mistake. Now. I know what I have to do. It’s your old slavers. They sent me an offer for you.”
“Okay. That is strange. I am an old model GEH. I thought they retired me once you bought my contract did they want to take my DNA for cloning or something else?”
Cooper shrugged. “I don’t give a fuck. Just the fact they contacted me a second time today shows they’re trying to fuck me over. You felt it didn’t you?”
I nodded. “Yeah. Is it about what happened today?”
Cooper nodded. “Oh sure and they’re trying to fuck me over. This isn’t out of the blue. Remember. They contacted me earlier today before we went out with the boys.. They offered me 5 Million ebs for you.. This time they offered me two GEH warrior models and 10 million ebs. What’s that sound like to you?”
Asset liquidation. Corporate takeover. esperation. Greed. War.
Cooper nodded staring at me like he could hear my thoughts. “They’ll try to kill me then they’ll come after the boys and then they’re going to try to steal you.”
“My sons? Why?!”
Cooper nodded his head but his eyes were lost in plans. “To make you come to them. That ain’t going to work though. I ain’t giving you up. I’m sorry honey I’ll have to burn em down anyone that gets in my way to fuck me over ain’t walking away.”
I nodded. “Yes. If they aim to kill my sons please burn them all.”

I sat at our reserved table while my sons competed with other men in competitions for weapons and ranking. The roin young nomad men competed to acquire entry into the Cooper Pack by show of fighting prowess and to garner some show of my attention for a blessing. My mate sat with me drinking his beer with a small on his face as he stared off at the men ignoring my gaze fixed to his face.
“What are you grinning about?”
“You have all these young men trying to get a smile from the most pretty female in the park and she only has eyes for the king of the Cooper pack. I’m feeling very proud of myself right now.” He said. The arrogance dripped from his voice.
I smiled at him but then I felt, Lightning Baby’s touch on my son Omarion. I looked around until I spotted him being chased down down a tall female intent on getting him and his pack brother. His gaze locked with mean and he advanced toward me. I started to stand and the crowd of males started making attempts to block his entry to me but he pushed shoved and made his way to my side finally.
I took a seat. “Hello, Mr. Astro.”
“Hello, mother wolf. It’s been a while.”
Kang came to attempt to push Omarion aside but Omarion wasn’t easily moved. Kang glared at me standing to his left. “This piece of shit don’t deserve to be here.”
Omarion looked at me with an arched eye brow. To question how I would respond then he smirked at me thinking it was going to be same like before.
“He’s touched by lightning and a child of the mother of the Lightning Baby. I am mother of the Nomads. He is my son in the same way you are my son. Let him speak on what has come to say and be on his way.”
