Hunter was getting settled into his room when his dad called to check on him. He was excited to hear from him and started talking a mile a minute about his new room. Alton was glad that the boy was at ease in Xanders home. Alton's conversation was interrupted by call waiting; he told Hunter that he needed to take a call but they would talk later, Hunter understood and said goodbye to his father.

Alton answered the phone it was Tony Corday. Yes, how can I help you?

Alton, I don't want to disturb you I know it's late in the afternoon but I would like to know if you would be willing to make a meeting if I brought someone by to see you, they are very interested and they would like to meet you.

Mr. Corday, I don't know what you're talking about, who are they that you're talking about?

Bill and Agnes Blasingame, they are Hunter's biological grandparents. They would like to request a meeting with you to discuss anything that they can do for you and Hunter because of the damage that their son caused. They first heard of this matter today and they are very upset at what was done to you and to your son. Would you agree to meet with them at the office under my supervision? Now Alton I understand if you say no, but you may want to think.

I'm okay with the meeting Tony as long as you're here, I will hear them out and we will sit down and discuss anything that is agreeable. Could you come by in the next hour?

How about we come there in five minutes, we're just pulling up to the front doors.

I don't know about you Tony, for a human you have very good insight and a little bit of devious personality about you. Alton chuckled.

My wife has said that about me to, we will be in a few minutes.

Alton was sitting behind the executive desk when the Blasingame's walked in with Tony Corday. He felt this was to his benefit as it cast him in a light of authority.

The meeting took a while, all parties were in agreement and he bid good afternoon to the Blasingame's until they met again.

Tony looked at him, Alton you are one in a million, he smiled and walked him out of the office.

It was late when he arrived, Alton gently knocked on the front door.

Xavier opened the door and was surprised to see Alton standing there with a suitcase in hand. Xavier smiled and before he could say anything Alton had his arms wrapped around his neck and his lips pressed tightly against his. When Alton finally broke the kiss Xavier was gasping for breath. Wow that was not expected responded Xavier.

You have no idea what you're in for my dear man, now be quiet and get in the damn bedroom and remove all of your clothing.

Xavier stood there shocked at Alton's attitude.

Don't make me do all the damned work the least you can do is get out of these damn clothes and get in that bed and wait on me, I am going to show you aside that this Genmen you thought you would never get to see.

Needless to say, when the front door was closed the clothing began flying off of Xavier's body.

Alton smiled with a vicious smile as he closed the bedroom door.

Dressed in one of Xavier's robes he gently set on the corner of Hunter's bed watching his son sleep. He brushed his hair out of his face and leaned over and gave him a light kiss on the cheek.

Hunter's eyes flew open, things were little blurry as his eyes began to focus and saw his dad in the room with him. Dad what you doing here he questioned?

And where else would I be at, am I not always around?

But I'm at Xavier's house, and what are you wearing it looks positively huge on you?

Well, I couldn't very well walk around with nothing this morning, so I borrowed one of Xavier's robes. He's cooking us breakfast, once you get up and take a quick shower, join us for breakfast.

Dad you're acting weird, is everything okay?

Alton looked back at his son as he stood at the door, smiling he responded; everything is perfect. Now get up so that we can start this day off correctly.

As soon as the door was closed Hunter was out of the bed and in the shower, whatever happened to his dad he agreed with it he had never seen his dad this happy before.

Xavier and Alton stood in the kitchen, Xavier was behind Alton and had his arms wrapped around him as the two attempted to cook breakfast. Being distracted like they both were, it was a little difficult so the bacon was a little crispy, the toast was down out burnt. But they didn't care.

Hunter walked in and he couldn't believe his eyes, his dad was absolutely giddy. Xavier was on cloud nine, as the two stood, arm in arm. Am I missing something here; he inquired?

Alton laughed out loud, nothing at all son we're just trying to cook breakfast.

Yeah, I would've already had it cooked if I didn't have such a beautiful distraction standing in front of me responded Xavier.

I can always go take a shower, and get dressed that way I'm not in your way.

Not on your life, you are perfect exactly where you were at. Hunter how do you want your eggs?

Cooked but not burnt Xavier, and the toast barely brown almost any color if you don't mind.

You heard your son, don't burn his toast.

Alton giggled; our son is very picky is he not?

Hunter shook his head, as he tried to focus on what his dad had just said; our son what did he mean by that?

Xavier returned as he had a plate in his hand with Hunter's breakfast when he had a wardrobe malfunction and it left nothing to the imagination.

Hunter turned red in the face, that will damage a child sight for life you need to start wearing some undergarments, I know humans sleep different than Genmen but when there's children involved you need to at least make sure it's under control.

Alton walked up to Xavier and adjusted his robe and tied the sash, until later on let's keep that under wraps and then we can have some fun.

I thought you had all the fun you could handle last night responded Xavier.

Oh no my favorite human, we are just getting started replied Alton and he gave Xavier a big wet kiss on the lips in front of Hunter.

It was Hunter's time to stand there with his mouth open wide. You mean the two of you did the you know what already?

Son you might want to close your mouth, it's natural between consenting adults to show someone's affection. And I hope you like company because in about nine months you will be welcoming a little brother or sister.

You're kidding me, you two did the you know what in there last night, while I slept in my room?

Xavier acted like it was no big deal when he responded. It's customary for parents to have sex in their room while their children sleep in their own rooms. Not a big deal just two consenting adults.

But dad what about your little speech, the next time you had relations with anyone you were using protection that way you didn't end up with another child without knowing your partner fully?

I have known Xavier since you were a month old, it's not like he's someone new in our family. It just took something extraordinary for me to realize everything that I need or ever wanted in life was right in front of me. You are my son and he is my mate it just took me a while to realize that, not that he didn't put forth his best effort to convince me. I had to realize it.

So, where are we going to live, in town or here on the ranch?

Well, you were going to live here on the ranch full-time, I will make my visits from the city when necessary but I'll be here every weekend. Your uncle Mitchell will just have to understand that I have a life outside of work. When he's back on the planet I will try to work remotely and spend as much time out here as possible. But once the baby arrives, I will have to re-evaluate my obligations.

No, you don't, nothing has to change. For the first few months you can split your time between here in the city after the baby arrives. When he is old enough or she, I can watch the child while you work all you have to do is pump nectar put it in a bottle and I'll feed him or her. That's very simple Alton, we are a family you are no longer responsible for everything in life by yourself. The three of us will tackle this head on, is that okay with you Hunter?

Hunter smiled at Xavier; sounds good to me. I can get a lot more studying done if I'm here on a full-time basis. I still can't believe that you two did the you know what already.

Xavier walked up behind Alton and wrapped his arm around his waist and nuzzled his neck, and we're going to do it every chance we get so be sure and knock before you enter the bedroom or you will see way too much and you will be one up on the others in sex-ed.

Not a problem if it's closed knock before entering, in fact knock twice and wait for a minute to see if there is a response before attempting to enter any closed off room.

Alton smiled at his son's response, that is a very good position to take. Now let's eat breakfast I'm famished.

Hunter liked the new changes in his dad.

Alton looked at Xavier then he cleared his throat. Hunter there are a couple of people that would like to meet you and sit down for a visit. They are very nice but they are confused, because they had no idea of your existence.

Hunter responded; okay when and where will they be, here?

It will be at the time that's convenient for us and the where will be here in our home. They are your biological grandparents, now you have to understand that you totally unknown to them. But they are excited to get to know you. They know the truth, all of the truth about you and I but they don't care about anything, but getting to know their grandson.

Hunter sat there eating his breakfast not concerned too much about what was going on.

Alton picked up his phone and called a number. The person on the other end of the call answered.

Hello how may I help you?

Good morning, Agnes; if you and Bill don't have any plans today, Hunter has agreed to a visit here at the ranch. There was a loud screech on the phone, Alton had to remove the phone from his ear it was so loud.

After the outburst, a clam voice replied; we should be there in 3 hours, Brookland will drive us; first I need to stop by and pick up a couple of things for Hunter. Thank you very much Alton, the call was ended.

That's strange, your grandmother said that she needs to pick up a few things for you Hunter.

Did she say what she was picking up inquired Hunter?

Nope, and I don't have any clue so it's going to be a surprise.

Broadway knew he shouldn't be working today but the flowers needed to be put into the ground today or they would be lost, he was in the private gardens so he would be safe from others during his time.

Brooklyn pulled the limo into the Z1 as the Blasingame's road in the backseat, the trunk area was full of gifts for their newly discovered grandson Hunter. Brooklyn pulled up to the curb at the cottage E-47 you could tell that it was new and a lot of the groundskeeping had not been done as of yet.

Brooklyn exited the limo and went to open the door for Mrs. Blasingame.

Brooklyn my dear man, after you remove all the gifts and bring them into the cottage you are free to roam around and scope the place out. But be careful there are plenty of singles here that are only looking for one thing.

Brooklyn put his head down, yes Mrs. Blasingame I understand. I think I learned my lesson last time and do not wish to repeat that event. I thank you and Mr. Blasingame for everything that y'all have assisted me with in the past but that was several years ago.

Yes dear, but still there are plenty of very eligible viable men here just ripe for the picking. You play nice and don't get into any trouble.

Bill Blasingame tapped his wife on the shoulder, Agnes my dear he is a grown man if he wishes to have a little afternoon delight with one of these fine specimens here, he is entitled to it. He will take care of his responsibilities should something occur.

Brooklyn thanked both of the Blasingame's and decided to go for little walk. The wind blew just right and he caught the scent of a very appealing person. He basically didn't have any will over himself, he needed to find who ever smelled this good to him.

He traced the scent all the way back to the front of the compound, he opened a gate which led to a private area, and he walked up on a person who was on his knees working planting flowers.

You smell fantastic and from this view you are very appealing.

Broadway was startled and straightened up even though he was still on his knees. He turned to look at the person who had just spoke. He was tall, a little on that the thin side but very well shaped. Excuse me do I know you he inquired?

No, we do not know each other yet my fine Sir my name is Brooklyn and I am visiting this beautiful place with my employers. They are here to visit their grandson for the first time and I have been given freedom to discover this place that they called the Z1.

Broadway stood up and he was a magnificent specimen, his plaid work shirt that had the sleeves removed and his jeans left nothing to the imagination, just the way he liked them. All of this did not escape Brooklyn's eyes as he drank in every bit of him.

Brooklyn extended his hand to shake the other man, when their hands touched a little spark ignited between the two of them.

Broadway couldn't help but vent, as their hands met, Brooklyn was just as bad even though he had a shield on, it was on overload.

What happened next was straight out of nature, they lunged toward each other and embraced in a lip lock and hands were roaming everywhere.

Broadway was the first one to break the kiss as he gasped for breath. This is not right we shouldn't be here doing this this is Mr. Ben's private garden; it would be considered in bad taste should something happen.

Then let's go back to your place so that something wonderful can happen. I promised them that I wouldn't, but for you I will.

I've never done this; I'm not versed in being with another that way but for you I would gladly let you take me.

I can smell that you're pure responded Brooklyn and I would be honored if I was your first and only. But that is only if you would give me of your seed first.

Have you ever before inquired Broadway? Yes, several years ago that's how I met the Blasingame's, they took me and when I had nothing, they helped me through a difficult time and placement of the child with a family that would raise him and see that he was properly educated. Please don't think less of me, I was young naïve and fell in the clutches of a person that was only after one thing.

I can respect you responded Broadway. The main thing is that you did right for the child that was brought forth.

Ben who was watching and listening to the conversation cleared his throat. Broadway, I think you and your friend need some quiet time. We will see you on Tuesday, you can finish up any work that is left unfinished. Enjoy yourself this weekend, you deserve to be happy.

Broadway lowered his head and thanked Mr. Ben. I will make the Z1 proud of us Sir, if it is to be it is to be and we will be the best.

Broadway and Brooklyn were out of the garden in a flash, Broadway led the way to his house, it was a modest two-bedroom. The furnishings were simple but tasteful as Broadway didn't go in for anything extravagant.

Brooklyn was very pleased with what he saw, and no sooner than the door closed the two were bound to each other as their clothing was all but ripped off.

Broadway tried to slow the man so that he didn't tear his fine clothing.

Brooklyn only had one thing on his mind and that was letting that find a hunk deep inside of his vent with his legs over his shoulders. Broadway didn't disappoint Brooklyn either.

Broadway saw the scars which looked like bite marks on Brooklyn's neck and shoulder. Who did this to you he inquired?

Like I said it wasn't the best and he was only after one thing. But that's what happens to one that is young and dumb, and goes out during his time.

I would never hurt anyone like that responded Broadway, your two beautiful to scar up. I know passion can run deep but to harm someone is totally out of character and morals here on the Z1.

Thank you responded Brooklyn; he pulled Broadway's face down to his and kissed him. The two made love until Broadway hit his stride and dumped his seeds deep inside of Brooklyn.

The two collapsed and rolled apart, Broadway spoke; I'll let you rest a bit then it's your turn to show me what it means to be loved by a true gentleman.

Brooklyn gently kissed Broadway's lips then began to rub his hands all over the man's body. And it was a body that was magnificent, pure muscles from hard work, honest work. He was slowly losing himself to this beautiful specimen.

Agnes Blasingame was very honored to meet her grandson as was Bill, he was such an honorable young man with a very levelheaded on his shoulders. They spoke about education and futures. She was so very happy with Alton and the way that he had raised his son.

I see that you keep on looking toward that big pile of bags across the room Hunter, question Bill.

Yes, Sir I do not mean to be disingenuous, but exactly what is all of that?

Young man it seems that your grandmother has a little bit of a shopping bug. And she felt that you could use certain things in your life to help you with your education. We know that you want to go into structural design and structural engineering, so she purchased every book that is up to date and every computer aided program to go along with no less than three types of computers. There is one here for your home there is a portable I believe they call them foldable's and also a complete oversized tablet that is dedicated to the programs. She had all of the systems interlinked. Plus, there's several other things there for your dad.

I'm sorry that's just too much, I don't mean to sound ungrateful but what if I am not worthy of you?

Bill got up and walked over and set beside Hunter. My dear grandson, it is us who are not worthy of you if anything. Circumstances being out of our control at the time but never more. You are part of us, our flesh and blood. You and your dad are our family also no matter what the circumstances were, from today on we shall start a new life. I know your uncle has provided everything that you will ever need, but we are here also because you and your dad are our family.

Alton was so proud of his son, as he stood beside Xavier, he couldn't believe how lucky he had gotten.

Xavier was the first to speak; excuse me Mr. and Mrs. Blasingame but would you consider being our guest for the weekend. It would give you more time with Hunter, you have a lifetime to catch up on. I have known this young man since he was a month old and he is a delight.

Bill looked at Agnes, then turned back to Xavier. We have a driver Brooklyn; we would need to make arrangements for him. Or we can send him back to the city and have him return on Monday to pick us up.

Bill sent a message for Brooklyn to contact them when he was able, nothing was wrong and there was not an urgency but to enjoy himself and they would be in contact later.

Brooklyn wiped a tear away from Broadway's cheek, I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you, I know it is your first time but it's not always easy giving oneself to another.

I'm not hurt, nor I'm in pain they're tears of joy as I can feel life being created between the two of us within my body. This is more than I could ever wish for or even dream about.

This is going be something else, both of us expecting at the same time responded Brooklyn. yours will probably come on time and mine will be early since this is my second. It's just the labor that I'm scared of, last time was 47 hours and he damn near ripped me apart. They said he was a human hybrid but that boy was big, 32 pounds of vent splitting child.

What do you think about me it is my first one and it's a pureblood, you're tall and lanky but I'm big and built so it's not going to be no picnic for me, good thing they got them chairs that make it easy for delivery here at the ranch.

Brooklyn's phone vibrated in his clothing; he realized what was he jumped up to go see. It was a message from Mr. Blasingame. Oh shit, I missed his message. I need to answer this back.

Go ahead it's okay, we've got the afternoon unless something happened with their visit.

That's what I'm afraid of and I do not want to cut this visit short, that's not me I'm not a quick roll.

Brooklyn called Bill Blasingame's communicator and listened to what he had to say. Don't worry about me he responded; I've got accommodations for the entire weekend Sir. I will meet you at the cottage 10 AM sharp Monday morning. I am very pleased that it is going well for you and the Mrs. okay Sir goodbye.

Brooklyn looked back at Broadway, you ready to make love again or should we just have sex. We have the whole weekend to do nothing but each other and I intend to make you walk bowlegged for a couple of days.

Bring it on stud because you are not going be able to set in that driver's seat with a straight face because your vent is going to be swollen up and sore come Monday.

Oh, that's a challenge, and I intend to answer, get ready because here I come and I am ready replied Brooklyn, hold your legs up because I'm going to plow your vent.

Zach came in from the garden area and looked for Ben. What's going on in the garden, the flowers were not planted and there's no Broadway around?

Life is what's going on my dear husband, it seems that our Broadway has caught the attention of a very nice respectable educated Genman from the city. And if I'm not wrong, right about now either one or both of them are impregnated. We will know more Tuesday when he returns to work.

Broadway won't let anybody touch him there, Ben you're reaching he doesn't play like that.

Almost happened in the garden, they were not being disrespectful but they were very hot and heavy, both of them were in such of a cycle it was ridiculous. Just hope that the other Genmen's employers who are visiting here for the weekend are is understanding as I am. Be nice to get some new blood here on the ranch, and he is a looker.

Exactly where did this Genmen come from my love?

It seems that Xavier and Alton are now a thing and they have guest from the city. Not just any guest but Hunter's grandparents. Bill and Agnes Blasingame from Blasingame Industries. It's a win-win situation for the Z1, Hawthorne ranch and Wallace industries. Do you reckon that we need to extend a casual lunch and or maybe a full dinner party for the Blasingame's?

I don't know it's family weekend, they are just getting to know their grandson.

Ben tomorrow is Saturday we could have a social event for the upcoming Remembrance Day on Monday, just letting everyone mingle and opening the ranch to all. Like a free event welcoming all who wish to attend making it a multi-day event.

Zach that would be perfect to let folks from the city attend by sending the transit shuttles to bring them here for free. It would be a gesture of gratitude for the masses to showcase of who and what we are all about. It would be a boon for the township and the business's located there.

Ben; I will contact Ty and have him put this out on a planet wide broadcast. This is why I love you so much. Zach picked up his communicator and rang Ty.

Ty was excited to hear what his grandparents had in mind, he added a few of his ideas and told his grandfather he would get right on it. And he did just that, within hours the place was abuzz with activity.

The rooms at the Hotels and Motor Lodge were filling up fast, Ben called Xavier to invite his family along with their guest to the promenade court for a lite luncheon.

Xavier listened to Mr. Ben and his proposal for a meeting at the promenade court. Yes, Sir I understand and I think it would be a wonderful idea there is one member of the household that is out of place at this point in time we will also try to get a hold of him and let him know what's going on.

Xavier don't worry I have that covered already, I know exactly where the young man is and have a good idea what's been going on behind closed doors. So, figure your bunch and Mr. Zach and myself along with your lost one and his guest. I believe that we should make it for about 2 o'clock if that's okay?

Sounds good to me I will talk with Alton and we will see you there Mr. Ben you can count on us, thank you very much Sir. Xavier hung up the communicator.

Alton looked at Xavier with a blank look on his face, exactly where and who are we supposed to meet we have company.

We are all invited to the promenade court to attend a light late lunch and with the Spinelli's. He said do not worry about our missing wayward one because he knows exactly where he is at and will have him attend also. He has something planned and he said we need to get ready, and that means all of us here in this house guest included.

Agnes had a puzzled look on her face; exactly what do you mean he has something planned?

Mrs. Blasingame when it comes to Mr. Ben Spinelli, we never ever question him and he always has something up his sleeve.

Bill Blasingame chuckled; sounds a lot like you my dear so don't get jealous.

I am not jealous my dear husband, I just don't appreciate surprises.

Now that my dear is a down out right misconception, because your grandson is the best surprise you ever had and you adore him. Now don't deny it you know that you are taken with that boy.

Hunter walked back into the room after returning from the restroom and looked around, okay what did I miss who did what?

Nothing my dear grandson it just seems that we have been invited to some place called the promenade court by an individual of the ranch I believe he is called Mr. Ben?

If Mr. Ben invites you that's one invitation you never turn down. He is so nice grandfather and he and Mr. Zach are so giving. Excuse me, I supposed say uncle Zach and uncle Ben., Mr. Zach is uncle Mitchell's long-lost brother, so we are part of a giant family here on the Z1.

Oh, my Bill what will we do, Brooklyn isn't here and we don't know where he's at.

Xavier spoke up, Mrs. Blasingame Mr. Ben said that he would make sure that Brooklyn is notified and he will attend the luncheon also. From the way Mr. Ben spoke he may have a guest himself.

That's my boy, my Brooklyn breaking hearts everywhere he goes responded Bill.

Darling, I know that you encourage Brooklyn every chance you get to find someone, but I don't want to see him with his heart broken ever again you know how bad it was last time. The boy almost didn't make it, it taxed his mind greatly.

Agnes it's been over eight years since that happened, Brooklyn has grown into a fine young man no longer is he that frightened youngster that we took in during his time of great need.

Hunter looked around, I think there is an adult conversation that needs to be spoken here so if you don't mind, I think I will go to my room and set up one of my new systems so that the four of you can speak.

Alton, I have to hand it to you; you have raised one fine young man in Hunter responded Bill.

Don't give me all the credit, there were friends and Mitchell Long was the best influence either of us ever had.

You know I met him years ago; he was a young man just starting out and very determined. I watched him grow into a fine businessman and quite successful in all of his ventures. To know that you and Hunter have had someone like that helping you out to become the person that you are it helps my heart.

Xavier took a chance to hug Alton a little tighter. The best day I had in my life was when I met Alton, the baby wasn't but a month old and he was having issues. I stepped in and helped him out with Hunter as he struggled with some new programs on the company's system. That right then and there was when I fell in love with Alton and young Hunter and I swore one day they would be my family.

And for that Xavier you have my and Agnes's forever gratitude. I can't see anyone else in his life as a father figure other than you and Mitchell.

Elvin's communicator went off; hello can I help you?

Elvin this is Ben from the Z1, I know it's late but I would like for you to roundup your boys, all of you are invited to attend a late lunch and at the promenade court here on the Z1 today about 2 o'clock. We have some new guest here who are visiting their grandson for the first time. I do believe that there is a lot in common in certain instances but it might be beneficial to your little farming operation. I believe that you might have heard of Blasingame Industries?

Heard of them, every small farmer dreams of getting that man's attention especially when there's a chance that I can get him to look at some of the crossed hybrid plants I'm working on. I think I need to bring a basket of fresh produce with me if that's okay?

I do believe it would be perfect timing Elvin, and make sure the boys know to be on their best behavior because we only get one chance to impress anyone.

I need to make sure I'm on my best behavior, the boys will be just fine. Thank you very much Mr. Ben, we will be there prior to 2 o'clock to make sure everything is set up on the tables.

Thank you very much Elvin and we will see you at 2 o'clock.

Ben called Broadway's communicator.

Broadway realized who it was and picked it up immediately, yes Sir how can I help you today Mr. Ben?

You and your friend are cordially invited to attend and might I say encouraged to attend a light luncheon at 2 o'clock that will be held on the Promenade. His people will attend also, so it's a good time that everyone gets to know everyone else. There is a lot to discuss because of the events that will go into this weekend and they will also continue own until Tuesday's main event.

We will be there Sir, maybe a few minutes early so that we can get a good seat.

The seating arrangement will be preset Broadway. I just need to know his name again.

Brooklyn Sir, Brooklyn Blasingame is his name.

Okay, Zach and I will be there along with the other guests that are going to arrive.

And who told you my last name was Blasingame inquired Brooklyn?

I'm sorry I just thought since you were such an integral part of their household that they had bestowed the name upon you.

It is, some reason they saw fit to include me into their household, I don't know why but I'm very well thought of in their eyes. So, what last name do you have Broadway?

Never hooked up with anyone so I just go by my given name.

That's something we need to fix, and I mean soon can't have no son of mine born without a legal last name.

Brooklyn leaned over and kissed Broadway, I'm so blessed to have met you.

So, what your story Brooklyn, I know most everybody has one but I'm a good listener. How exactly did you meet the Blasingame's?

It was a long time ago seven months after I transitioned. Mr. Blasingame was pulling into the driveway of their home and I was sleeping in front of the gates and he almost ran over me. It had been raining horrible that night and they have a covered entrance so I had sought refuge. Being seven months gone I couldn't move real fast.

That's something, he almost ran over top of you?

He jumped out and ran around the front of the car where I was penned and helped me up, needless to say when he saw my condition he had a fit. Mrs. Blasingame had gotten out of the transport and came around to see what all the fuss was.

When she saw that I was so far along she immediately hollered for help to get me into the backseat of the car so they could get me to the main house. I was carried inside and checked over, they even sent for Dr. to check me out to make sure I was okay. I apologized for my condition and the odor that I might present because I had not been keeping myself up.

A little smelly, were you?

A whole lot smelly, Mrs. Blasingame ordered one of the other employees to draw a bath and she helped me to ready myself so that I could be cleaned up. She was so sweet gently washing my face in my arms making sure that they were free of all the filth. I will never forget how she gently washed my hair; it was shoulder length and very ragged at that time. She asked if she could make me more presentable by trimming the hair a little bit, I didn't have any problems at all I just told her it really wasn't necessary she didn't need to make a fuss I wasn't important.

Mrs. Blasingame would not hear of it; she was like a drill sergeant commanding everyone in her path to do her bidding. The cooks were wrestled out of their beds to prepare me a nice warm nutritious meal. Mr. Blasingame brought me one of his robes as I remove myself from the nail filthy water, he helped Mrs. Blasingame tell try me and wrapped me in his luxurious robe.

He asked me about my condition and I broke down. I poured my heart out to the two of them about what happened and that I never wanted to have a child. I wish that once I delivered it would disappear and I would never see it.

I began to cry and Mrs. Blasingame gently took my head on her shoulders stroked my hair and I remember to this day exactly what she said.

Don't worry my son, mother and father would take care of everything when it was time. That I was now home and I never had to go anywhere ever again. I really didn't realize exactly how big the impact they would make up all my life.

Eight years ago, I delivered a boy that was different from others. I never saw him I just remember what the Blasingame's told me. The boy was sent to live with another family to raise as their own, from what I can understand they were a human couple who could not have children of their own and they were his static to be able to raise a child.

I don't talk about this much because I hope and I feel that I did the best thing I could for the child. I didn't want to be reminded of how he happened and what I felt for him as he grew inside of me to ever mar that child.

It sounds like you hit a jackpot when you were found by the Blasingame's, Brooklyn as far as the child goes you did the best thing that you could for him. I doubt that he resents you at all because look what you gave him a two-parent family in the human world.

Broadway do you think we did the right thing today. One child between the two was is something but we are both expecting each other's child. I feel for you things that I have never felt before with anyone and I've rolled a few myself. Never been taken down by anyone in the last eight years so it's a little different for me. I'm 28 now and I'm more mature than I was the first time but I still have doubts about myself.

Brooklyn I'm 30, I never ever would let anyone touch me much less getting close to my vent until I met you and our pheromones intermingled. I can't wait for these babies to be born and we can raise our family. I will keep the boys during the week while you work for the Blasingame's and you come home on the weekends. I really want to stay here on the ranch and raise our children.

I have no problem with that, the Blasingame's will understand and I imagine they will be involved in the boy's lives, what else is a grandparent supposed to do because that's what they will consider themselves. Now let's get cleaned up so that we can make this luncheon that Mr. Ben was speaking of.

Broadway and Brooklyn were the first ones to arrive, Brooklyn had borrowed some of Broadway's older clothing that fits his body very nicely. Jeans and Broadway's signature plaid shirt that was sleeveless is typical of all of his shirts. The table was set up exclusively with named places for everyone to sit. As they stood there a young man walked up and asked them with a care for anything to drink at the time.

Broadway replied, two chocolate malted's please.

Brooklyn chuckled, and how do you know I like chocolate?

Just took a gamble, most Genmen love chocolate. Wait to you taste one of them you will not believe how it will light up your taste buds.

Brooklyn looked over and noticed that the Blasingame's were headed in their direction they were accompanied by a Hunter who had both of their hands within his on either side.

Brooklyn bowed his head and responded, good afternoon Ms. Blasingame.

Agnes looked at Brooklyn, you are not working you will address me as mother. I am very proud of you my son so let's introduce this fine young man that you have beside you to the family.

Brooklyn was all smiles as he faced Bill and Agnes. I would like to introduce to you someone who is very special and will be a very integral part of my life from now on. Mom and father, I would like for you to meet Broadway, as soon we are able, I wish for us to be joined so the boys can carry the Blasingame name.

Agnes could not control herself and she literally wrapped her arms around the two young men and began to kiss them profusely. Bill said it was going to happen it was just a matter of time are you sure that there are going to be babies?

Yes mother, we would not touch each other unless we would both be willing to bring to the family what we needed to.

Bill was so proud of Brooklyn that he took his son in his arms and started to cry tears of joy. He then turned to Broadway and kissed the young man on the cheek as he embraced him. Welcome to the family son he repeated welcome.

The waiter returned with five chocolate malted's. After seeing your company arrive and knowing that young man for the last three days I decided to go ahead and bring malted's for everyone an extra-large for Hunter. Hunter blushed.

Slowly the others arrived and they began to take their seats at the table, Zach and Ben arrived and couldn't help but notice Broadway's smile.

Ben elbowed Zack, told you it was gonna happen and you didn't believe me. Shows you what you know, he has been tapped. Zach just kind of mumbled yes dear.

Elvin and his family arrived, I'm sorry that we are a little bit late Mr. Ben but getting this crowd together is a little tougher than I remember special with two them waddling but I wouldn't have life any other way. Where are my manners good day good people my name is Elvin Willis, these are my boys, first I would like to introduce my son-in-law Adam and my grandson Denis Adam, my second born Jeremy then my third born Crighton and his mate and my son-in-law Ballard and last but not least the youngest Stephen. We lost my firstborn, Adams husband in the tragic of explosion that occurred due to a terroristic event here on the ranch, he died saving Adam who was expecting their first, my grandson Denis Adam who I foolishly denied his existence until recently. We can't make up for our past but we can do better in the future and that I learned from my son-in-law Adam.

Bill and Agnes smiled, I would like to introduce myself and my wife. I and Bill and this is my wife Agnes Blasingame, until recently we did not know that we had a grandson. But Hunter and his dad Alton are going to be a very big part of the Blasingame family. Also here is our other son Brooklyn who has recently met someone that he is very fond of Broadway, we expect good things out of the two of them and what I mean by that is plenty of grandbabies.

As the group set there at the table talking getting ready for lunch, they heard someone calling a name. It was a lady and she was calling out the name Connor.

Beth Stevens was getting a little perturbed at her husband, he was sitting with a group of people she could not get his attention no matter how much she called out. She approached them and stood behind Brooklyn. Excuse me Connor Stevens have you not heard me calling you for the past five minutes she blared out, and where exactly is Chris at have you lost him again?

Brooklyn gently turned around, excuse me Mdm. but who exactly are you looking for?

Beth wasn't really looking at him she was looking at everybody else, Connor Stevens do not start this mess with me again I know how you like to pull jokes, where is our son at have you let them get lost again. You know he's getting close to age, and exactly where did you get those clothes at?

Brooklyn stood up and faced the lady when she finally looked at him. Oh my gosh I am so sorry you look just like my husband I thought he was pulling a joke on me again. I am so very very sorry.

About that time a young girl walked up, mom we have been looking for you everywhere. Why are you harassing these people, oh my goodness he looks just like father. Holy crap. There's no way anybody could look like my father, but you could pass for an older version.

Agnes was the first one to realize what was going on and she grabbed Bill's hand.

I'm sorry young lady, my name is Brooklyn Blasingame. I'm here at the ranch with my family from the city. I don't know how I could look like anyone I'm an only child.

Beth opened her bag and pulled out a photograph, take a look at this and tell me you don't see something very odd.

Brooklyn looked at the photograph is the girl pointed out to her father in the picture. Here's my father and my brother who looks just like him, we kid them all the time about their genes. Chris looked like a mini me of my father.

Bill walked up behind his son to help stabilize him. May I see the photograph if you don't mind. And what might be your name be young lady.

I'm Brooke Stevens, this is my brother Chris and my father whose name is Connor.

It took Bill one second to look at the photograph and realize exactly who they were looking at.

I don't understand this said Beth, my husband was adopted when he was a newborn, his parents didn't know anything about his family.

Your husband is he special?

Special in What Way, Sir inquired Beth?

Mom look where you're at, and you're going to ask that here on the famous Z1. It's a refuge and home for all of those who are different than so-called normal humans. That's the reason we came here, to maybe get some answers. You know about the baby.

May I please take a seat, being four 1/2 months along has been a little difficult during this pregnancy. He's going to be big as all the doctors can say, I don't know if he's going to have any attributes since he's of mixed bloods. Conner's parents could not tell us anything about his past because it was all closed, the adoption was. They didn't care, all they knew was that they had a baby, the baby that they loved so much.

Agnes was the first one to ask, are they not here with you this weekend?

Grandmother and grandfather were killed in a traffic accident last year responded Brooke.

Beth started to speak; it's been so hard on Connor after he lost his parents, he feels like he has a hole in his heart. I started to investigate a few things after his parent's death but adoption records are so hard to open. He does not hold any animosities toward his biological parent because he had a wonderful life with his mom and dad.

Brooklyn was beginning to feel like his insides were being ripped out.

Beth what are you doing disturbing people a voice rang out, and Brooke, I told you to find your mom please.

Dad, I did mom got a little confused. She wasn't the only one. Brooke stepped back so that Connor could see Brooklyn.

Chris was the first one to dropped the F bomb. Would you fucking look at that oh my God he looks just like us.

Agnes cleared her throat, watch the language young man.

Chris remembered where he was, yes ma'am I'm very sorry about my choice of words but he looks like an older version of my father.

Brooklyn became a little weak kneed and took a seat. Bill stood there looking at Connor Stevens for the first time, he was the son of his dad without a doubt. The prodigal child had come full circle. Connor my name is Bill Blasingame, it's great to meet you again.

Carter looked at the older man, what do you mean again Sir?

My wife and I were at the hospital the day that you were born into this world, we watched you be taken away and handed to your adoptive parents. We knew that you were going to be loved and in a very good place. Please do not hold it against your dad, he was too young and way too inexperienced to become a parent. We helped him make a decision that was best for everyone.

Connor looked back at Brooklyn; tears were streaming down his face as he began to break. Is it true he inquired?

All Brooklyn could do was shake his head in agreement.

Carter took a knee beside Brooklyn and gently lifted his face. I would like to thank you for giving me the best parents that anyone could ever have. I lost them way too soon but without you I would never gotten to meet them in the first place.

Beth walked up beside her husband and placed her hand upon his shoulder. Now it makes sense, for some overwhelming reason I named my daughter Brooke and it seems fitting now. It makes perfect sense that she should be named after her granddad.

The entire table was quiet as this reunion took place. Please announced Ben, have a seat here and join us this is a family celebration. It looks like a lot needs to be discussed this weekend. You have to stay here on the ranch in one of our guest cottages, no hotel room for family.

Connor looked around; I couldn't ask that I mean he is just had the shock of his life. I don't know what the circumstances were but I'm sure that my dad had his reasons for what he did.

Young man; think nothing of it announced Agnes, I will speak for our son. You will know the truth about everything because there's nothing worse than secrets in a family because they come out and create all sorts of pain. I know that from firsthand dealings.

Chris was standing offish, Brooke motioned for her brother to come along forward. The children walked up to Brooklyn where he set next to Broadway.

Is it true are you really my father's dad, are you the reason that I'm special just like him?

Brooklyn could only shake his head yes.

Chris wrapped his arms around Brooklyn's neck and thanked him with a hug. I'm so glad that you made my father's special because that makes me special. You are the reason I'm so smart and able to play high school sports this year.

Brooke looked at her brother, really that's all you can think about is sports?

Well, if it wasn't for being part Genmen I'd be a little twerp barely out of diapers.

You'll always be a little twerp to me, and sometimes you still need diapers.

Children play nice Beth cautioned both of them.

Ben chuckled, nothing like a little sibling rivalry.

Broadway did not leave Brooklyn side; he was there for the long haul.

So, is this your partner now inquired Connor?

Yes, we have just recently made a commitment to each other. So, no he's not your father in fact I don't know who your father was.

Must've been a real piece of trash to walk off and leave someone like you replied Connor.

Can we get you fine people something to drink inquired Zach?

We don't wish to put anybody out responded Beth.

Nobody is putting anyone out, Ben and myself we own the Z1 so you're at our home. And so, like everyone else you will be treated like family and always welcome. Let me introduce myself, I am Zachariah Spinelli and this lovely person over here is Ben, I go by the shortened version of Zach.

Mr. Spinelli you don't have to do anything special for us, we are just someone from the city coming out at my wife's insistence so that we can get to know more about heritage.

Like I said it's Zach, and you don't have to worry about anything here. The children can run and play or do anything they want to I'm sure that young Hunter can show them around he's new here also and he's, my nephew. The children may want to go look at the interactive historical display of the arrival of Genmen to the planet.

Really, we can go to the Museum replied Brooke.

Alton spoke up, only if I can come along with you children. I know everything is great here but I still am a little bit overprotective when it comes to Hunter.

Beth looked at Alton, I understand and I would feel better if they had an adult with them.

Would you mind Watching after Chris and Brooke also.

Dad I'm not a little child, I have friends here already on the Z1. I don't need a helicopter parent.

Ty cleared his throat; I'll watch after the children. I feel that the parents here need to have an uninterrupted visit.

That's being a wonderful grandson Ty replied Ben. Let the children be children just watch after them to make sure that they don't get into too much trouble.

All three children were up from the table in a second, Brooke look back at Stephen. You know that you're invited to, you're not that old.

Elvin looked at his youngest son, be a gentleman you might be 17 but I can still turn you over my knee if you get out of line.

Don't worry about me Sir my father made sure that I know how to protect myself and take care of any unwanted advances.

Stephen put his hands up in the air, I surrender right now I don't need any trouble. Ty and the four children left the area headed to the Museum.

Connor was the first one to break the ice. You can start wherever you wish to start, I know nothing about what happened, I only know the end result. I was given the best life that any child could ever have and two of the most loving parents ever, Brooklyn I hold no animosities toward you what so ever. I would like to thank you for giving life to me, it's because of you that I have a wonderful family and a new young one on the way.

Brooklyn cleared his throat and began to speak. We will start without with the details of conception and the trials that I went through that will only cause more pain that's not needed. Everyone was hush mouthed as he spoke about the first time that he met the Blasingame's. He was blessed to beyond everything by meeting them and how much richer his life had become. He was educated for the first time; he had a job that he loved and people that loved him along with a place to call home. He had to grow up and mature, at the time that he gave birth and he was in no place to be a parent in his life. He did not want a child to suffer because of his inadequacies so he let the Blasingame's make arrangements for the child.

Agnes began to speak, Connor when you were born your dad was nowhere near ready to be a parent. He barely made it through birthing you, in fact it was touch and go for a couple weeks afterwards.

Now this is going to shock everyone, Bill it is time that we let the news be known.

Brooklyn my dear when we thought we would lose you shortly after the birth, Bill and I formerly adopted you, didn't you never think that it was a little strange that we referred to you is our son and around the house you were instructed you to call us mom and father, because son that's what we are to you.

You work during the day and you receive payment for your services just like anyone else just because you are our son doesn't mean that you don't need a job, do you not need a paycheck to meet your basic needs. Yes, I get very lavish when I go buy you things, what's a mother to do?

Is that the reason the rest of the staff treats me a little bit different?

When you're not driving for us, they are to treat you with respect and as a member of the family. They all know that and they follow our simple rules replied Bill.

I never knew, over eight years and you never said a word?

We just didn't want you to think it was done out of pity. You were one of the best things that ever happened to us, we were lost as a couple. Yes, we had a son that was doing his own thing and could've cared less about us as long as we kept the money coming in, but you brought us together again and gave us reason. It's the only way that we felt that we could ever repay you for helping us find ourselves again.

Brooklyn hugged both Agnes and Bill and thanked them for being the best parents anyone could have, even someone as flawed as him.

Beth and Connor listened to the events as they unfolded. Conner was amazed by the love that Agnes and Bill showed his dad, that's right his dad. Without him none of his life would be, no family, no Beth, no children nothing. He walked up to Brooklyn and hugged him, as he kissed his cheek, he thanked him and said; I love you for what you did for me by giving me the best parents ever dad.

Brooklyn was overcome by emotion and gently wrapped his arms around Connor and he began to cry.

That's okay dad responded Connor, let it out because we only get one dad in this world and you are mine. I just hope that we can have some kind of relationship for your grandchildren's benefit. The new one that Beth is carrying is special like you, we are going to need all of the help that we can get raising him. I just hope that I can be half the Genman that you are.

Bill and Agnes wrapped their arms around the two, you can count on us to help Connor. You are not alone in this world, there wasn't a day that I didn't think of you remarked Bill. I knew that I would never see you again after I handed you off to the nurse making sure that you were perfect. But like everything else life comes full circle when it's needed.

Connor wiped his eyes and cheeks, so dad, are you going to introduce me to your new friend or do I have to find out for myself?

Brooklyn regained his composure, and he introduced Broadway to his son and his wife. I don't know if I have the right to introduce you as my son since I was the one that walked away eight years ago.

You cannot deny blood responded Connor, I had the best parents there were, but without you I'm nothing. We cannot rewrite the past but we can live for the future. Besides I want to get to know my little brothers once they're born. You see I'm not going to be an only child anymore and if something happens to you who are they look up to besides their big brother, just like Chris will have to be there for his little brother when he is born.

Beth interrupted, all this emotion has got this pregnant woman hungry as heck, can I get order of fries possibly?

Everyone started to laugh, I hear you sister responded Ballard. I'm hungry myself and this baby is doing laps inside of me so I think we're good for order of fries with chili, cheese and maybe some hot peppers in the side.

Now you're speaking my language the hotter the better responded Beth. Causing everyone to chuckle.
