The Z-1 Ranch

The Z-1 Ranch P-20 CGF©

It had been a few days since Chas's transformation and Donnie had to keep a close watch on his son especially when Roger was around. This fact did not go unnoticed by Zach or Ben, he would need to attend a breeding as an observer locked in the cubicle.

After Donnie had finished serving everyone in the warehouse Ben came up to him; Donnie what do you have planned for the boy this afternoon?

Well when we get through here, we need to go home cleanup, he needs to feed Xavier and start doing some of his lessons to catch up but other than that he's free why Sir did you need something?

Me and Zack have been talking, we feel that he needs to attend a breeding session as a locked in observer. I know that he's got his eyes set on Roger, the boy is going to do something that is not going to be nice if he doesn't know the difference and I'm offering my services so that he can learn.

Ben that would be fantastic, you don't know how hard it is trying to keep them two apart it's not just Chas, Roger flexing his vent every time Chas comes around and he starts giving off slick and pheromones. He doesn't realize what he's doing, but they're intended to be together no matter what we think it's just Genmen nature. I would rather my son know what he's doing when it comes that time so that he won't hurt Roger because Roger's older and has never been opened before, it's going be especially hard on him because of Chas's size.

Well I've got a session at 3 o'clock Donnie and I'll be by to pick up Chas, so just tell him to get ready for Mr. Ben; he has a different lesson this afternoon.

Chas didn't understand what his father was trying to tell him when he mentioned that Ben was coming by to pick him up that he was will be putting a different type of class and would have to attended per Mr. Zack.

At 2:45 like clockwork Ben showed up on Donnie's doorstep and knocked on the door. Donnie answered the door and had him come on in, Ben looked at Chas and told him to stand up and get ready to go with him. Chas responded; just where you think we're going?

Ben give a sharp look; you will go any damn place I tell you to go to boy, do you understand that you do not question me at all. I am the tops when it comes to Genmen.

Chas's eyes popped open, yes Mr. Ben Sir no problem sir and he followed Ben out the door.

Stephen was coming out of the kitchen carrying Xavier when he remarked; guess we know who just got his balls in a vice don't we.

Yes, Stephen we do, and been better squeeze them hard because that boys hardheaded, and he will learn something today, I have no doubt that he will.

Ben did not speak to Chas the entire trip to the breeding quarters. He unlocked the door and they walked inside. Ben pointed to the booth and told him, sit your ass inside boy, Chas didn't ask a single question but followed the directions. He jumped when Ben slammed the door shut and locked him in with three padlocks.

Ben walked around to the window which is equipped with a one-way microphone, Chas you can hear me we will not hear you your voice is silenced you will hear everything that takes place out here in the breeding area between me and the perspective bottom as I breed him. According to his file he's already had two breeding's so he should know the drill. I don't expect any problems but you never know he's from another ranch sent here to bring in a new bloodline. You'll see a notepad and therefore you can write down anything you want to know about why something was done in a particular way. Mr. Zach and I both feel that before you pursue any kind of relationship with another Genmen that you have to know what goes on and how to handle it. Anybody can jump on top of another one and fuck him and leave a seed behind and knock him up, but you need to learn the finer points is not all about get on, get it in, getting off and pulled out, he's bred.

The door opened and a young cute redheaded Genmen walked in, the security closed the door and locked it.

Ben looked at the young man and thought to himself, no way he's been bred twice that's fresh, something is up. Ben handed him a robe and showed him where to freshen himself in the shower and make himself ready for his upcoming impregnation.

The young man looked around the room saw the bed and Chas sitting in the observation booth. Constantine was scared out of his wits; he knew that these things were complex from what everybody said he had no idea it would be like this. He went into the shower and cleaned himself up making sure that he scrubbed his pits, his inner thighs and especially his crack and the opening to his vent.

Constantine came out dressed in a robe and was so scared he was afraid he might absolutely throw up, but he was doing this because of his brothers, he had to do this so his brothers would be safe.

Ben showed him to the bed and told him to have a seat. And drop your robe young man off your shoulders.

Constantine pulled his robe back and let it fall from his shoulders and straightened up his body so that his glands and nipples were perky.

Ben looked the young man up and down; he was in fine physical condition for a freshly transitioned Genmen. Ben picked up the chart, okay Constantine tell me why you are here the real reason.

Sir I'm here to be bred, I need to return to my ranch with a new bloodline contained within my body it's what's expected of me Sir the owner says that I must complete this task.

Says that you've given birth twice and this is your third breeding so how old is your youngest?

Sir he's three months old now, I started my cycle three hours ago and I'm ripe for you to put another one in me.

Okay Constantine turnaround and push out your vent I want to inspect you.

Constantine turned around and put his rear toward Ben and strained real hard trying to push his vent out, after two failed attempts on the third one he finally popped his vent out.

Ben walked up behind him and placed his finger on the vent and running down his lips, this startled Constantine and he jumped. Ben realized he never been mounted before this is a virgin so he pulled his hand back and slapped him hard upon his vent. The stinging slap caused to Constantine's vent to revert back in were and a rapid pace in his butt cheeks slammed shut.

In a sudden move Constantine turned around sit up straight on his now stinging vent, what did you do that for Sir wasn't my vent pleasing to you is or something wrong with-it Sir I washed and cleaned it just like you instructed.

The first thing young man you can tell me why you're lying to me why is this folder full of lies, why were you sent by your ranch, you've never ever been topped your vents brand-new, hasn't anyone even touched you back there.

Constantine looked at him and started to cry, Sir you have to do this you have to do this I cannot return back to my ranch unless I'm bred, I'll find somebody that will, somebody has to breed me I can't lose my brothers.

Ben set beside the young man who was crying profusely, okay son start with the truth tell me how old you are having cycles you've been through since you transitioned and why you have to be bred, why would it matter about your brothers being lost.

Constantine wiped his eyes, my dad left I'm the oldest and I've got a brand-new infant brother since I transitioned, I've been feeding him with my nectar because it's good for a newborn. I owe for my family's debt. My dad completed his contract and as soon as the last one was born, he left within hours. Now all of my debt and my brother's debt falls on to me and I have to birth three children for the master that owns us to secure our freedom.

Ben stopped Constantine right there; I'm going to make a phone call young man put your robe back on you're not going anywhere, I want you to tell your story to Mr. Zach and to two other people one's name is Martin and the other one is Hanz, and don't worry about anything you and hot in trouble not at all you're at the Z1 now you're safe and I can assure you that your brothers will be also. Ben retrieved his cell communicator and called a code orange at breeding facility C. everyone knew what this meant and who was supposed to respond.

Ben walked over and unlocked Chas and let him out of the cubicle so that he could set next to Constantine since they were roughly the same age.

Chas introduced himself to Constantine, and told him that the people at the Z1 were very kind very good to every Genmen that was in trouble or just in a rough spot and needed sanctuary. He told him about Xavier and how he came to be and that he had just transitioned himself a few days earlier. They had me here to watch what a breeding should look like so that I won't hurt my mate when we finally consummate our relationship with each other as a bonded pair.

Constantine looked at Chas; a bonded pair you mean you don't have to let just any and every Genmen that they send your way crawl on top you and put it inside of you and keep your belly round every nine months for three years.

No you don't, here we have a choice, we can either choose to use the breeding program to conceive a child of our choice or we can choose to pick a mate and stay with him for as long as we want, having children with him as often or as little as we want. No one's ever forced to do anything they don't want to but it doesn't come free, we have jobs we work at and we sell our nectar what we have left on the market, Ty gets the best market price he can and have to funds are transferred to our own accounts so that we can buy new clothing or any special thing that we want that's not furnished here by the Z1.

Yeah, what are you going to do on 2 Cronaks per ounce, it would take a long time to build up money.

Ben interrupted; Constantine how much is nectar going for on the open market at your ranch per your owner?

He said it went up again now it's up to 8 Cronaks per ounce Sir, he says the stuff my glands produce will be poured out on the ground, it's worth so little. That's the reason I owe him so much for me and my brothers stay there.

Ben looked at Constantine; son you've been lied to, Genmen nectar sales for 800 Cronaks per ounce on the open market for the ranches. Your owner has been stealing money from all of you living there.

But I can never leave from the owner Sir, he says he owns me since my father had to pay a very big debt with his vent and conceived me. He's always hated me since forever, says I'm a Halfwit or a Halfling and that I should have been smothered when I was born.

Zack heard the last bit of Constantine's conversation with Ben about him being a halfling and that he should have been smothered when he was born. Zach was pissed, he would make it his mission to destroy that ranch and to take every one of the Genman and bring them to the Z1 for freedom.

Constantine was on a full out crying fit when Zach wrapped his arms around him, pulled him close to him and stroked his hair. Young man you have a place here to live forever you will never be forced to do anything that you don't want to do in life, because you're not a halfwit and you're not a halfling, you're what we call a hybrid, you carry genetic DNA of both species human and Genmen you are the best of everything and never ever forget that and sell yourself short.

Martin, Hanz and Angela arrived at the center to interview Constantine, Zach told Ben to take young Chas back to the house so he could process what he'd heard and what he saw, that he might need to talk to someone himself, Ben agreed and had Chas leave with him.

On the way to his cottage young Chas and Ben talked. You know Chas he's gonna need a friend, he's about his same age, someone that's been through a couple of bumps in his own life. You know somebody that might have a young child also, he's raising his three younger siblings, one who is a very young babe and someone that is not trying to get into his vent.

Chas looked down, sir there's only one vent that I want to get into and belongs that to Roger. I realize were both young we both recently transitioned and yes with Xavier and his baby brother we do have a lot in common, so we can be friends but I'm not laying finger on him even if he begs me to.

My young man that sounds better, you need a friend and he needs one also. You do know the vacant house next door well, if he decides to stay that's where his family will be. I know it was supposed to been for Stephen and Clark but I think when they hear the story about Constantine, they'll be okay with it. You two can be buddies maybe you can even get your dad to help him by teaching him how to cook also it would be very convenient babies next door and next door people friends you know were all about family here and that's what he needs, a family.

Ben and Chas walked into the house and Donnie could tell there was something weighing on his son so he asked him how did it go.

It was different, not what I thought it would be. You have to get to know your partner before you create a child. Even if that partners from another ranch you have to know what he's going through in his head so that the event is pleasurable for him and causes no damage. Ben's a gentleman and being that he realized that there was something very wrong tonight with the young man that arrived for breeding. Constantine is going to need a lot of help and a few friends, and I intend to be one to him, a true friend. Dad do you mind taking on another student, training someone else to be a chef if he wishes to be one.

No Chas; I don't mind helping anyone out, what the hell happened this afternoon at that breeding.

Ben cleared his throat; well let's say greed, greed and more greed and a not so honorable ranch owner who will be receiving a visit from the GBI, full force. You will have a new neighbor next door; Constantine and his three younger siblings will be taking that cottage until we can build a new one for Stephen and Clark.

Donnie smiled; well it looks like I might be cooking a care package for them when they get here, we need to make sure it's clean and all the linens are changed on the bed's and it set up for however many people will be staying there.

Chas hugged his dad's neck; if I haven't told you lately, I love you and I appreciate everything that you do for me and Xavier.

Constantine began to fill in all the blanks for Martin, Hanz and Angela so that they could raid the ranch. But first he wanted to make sure that his brothers were going to be safe during all of this.

Martin started out; will walk in there with a search and seizure warrant, we will lock everything down no one owner off the ranch the owner will be placed in cuffs, all financials will be seized all accounts will be locked. He will have access to anything all surveillance cameras everything will be blacked out before we get there. So, tell me when are you expected to be back there tonight, so that we can coordinate with a bus route because it's not gonna be a public busing system it's going to be our right at one and full of agents of the GBI.

Constantine was feeling a little bit better about the whole situation but he still couldn't help but worry about Rusty the baby, he knew Eli and Richie would be okay once they saw him.

They had three hours to get everything together for the raid, Martin had no problem getting all the paperwork, getting everything going, the bus in route with Constantine on board.

As they were getting ready to go Zach stepped up, Ty's going and I will to make sure that there's an easy transition I've already spoken to Tony and the Z1 will have someone there at that ranch watching over those people to make sure that they're safe and their secure, we will have a private security detail with armed security standing by that place until we can transfer them all here in new homes.

Constantine couldn't believe that he was hearing this from a human no less, someone that he was taught to fear his entire life and this human was willing to help them, nothing made sense that this was a new world that he stepped into when he went to the Z1.

Zack had a sinking feeling in his stomach as the bus approached the ranch, something was off this stunk of corporate. The bus pulled into the front drive and Constantine stepped off holding his stomach playing the part as if he had been recently bred. Two larger figures came to meet him, one of them grabbed his arm and started to drag him off. He broke loose and ran to his siblings who were waiting near the outbuilding. Before they could catch up with them the team pounced on the ranch.

The place was soon swarming with GBI agents, one by one all of the caretakers and workers were lined up seated position down the main sidewalk by the bus. Martin had the privilege of applying the handcuffs to the owner, he placed a gag on him and drug him like a rackknar and dumped him on the ground in front of everyone. When the all clear sign was given Zach and Ty exited the bus and stepped foot on the newest Z1 property for the first time.

Agents went to every hovel, that was the best way to describe the housing on this ranch, not fit for human nor Genmen either. They announce themselves and had everyone to gather at the front of the ranch so that certain new rules could be given to them and they could make their choice of what they wished.

Ty was the first to start out, he introduced himself to the crowd and told them he would be putting everything in order with the ranch that there would be a lot of changes there would be some new rules here on the ranch but most importantly the living conditions would vastly improve but for them to make it happen they had to work together as a team there would be some new construction people coming in from Hawthorne enterprises to go over any kind repairs that needed to be made temporarily until they could be moved to a new location with a new home. Ty asked a couple of questions about the production of the nectar and the pricing.

An older Genmen stood up; I produce every morning, I pump I give it to them when they come for it, they weigh it out and I get my money. They give me a fair price at two Cronaks per ounce.

Ty smiled; Sir you had been cheated, the current price for quality mature produced nectar is 800 Cronaks per ounce, not 8 Cronaks per ounce. When we sell it at the end of the week you will receive 50% of any and all funds received from the sale of the nectar prices sometimes do fluctuate but they always fluctuate up because I've got ironclad contracts for my vendors and the Genmen will never go without on any Z1 controlled or owned property.

The older gentleman announced himself as Jedediah and asked Ty how was this possible, if the owner here couldn't get anything out of the nectar how can you guarantee this.

Because Sir; I'm a hybrid, yes; I'm three quarters Genmen and a quarter human and I have no reason to lie to anyone, the gentleman sitting right there is the owner of the Z1 and I'm proud to call him my grandfather. We are treated as family at the Z1, no one is over top of or better than anyone else, we live in harmony alongside our human brethren. No one is ever forced to do anything that they don't wish.

When it comes to our cycle season, my grandfather likes everyone conceive basically at the same time that way the children are all grown up together. If you feel that you don't want to be pregnant that season then you don't have to conceive a child at all. As long as you have one at least once every three years.

Jedediah was taken back, I didn't know that any place such as the Z1 existed around here. We're so far in debt to the master that we couldn't leave sometimes others did leave and left the debt to their children to pay such as in Constantine's case.

Constantine stood up; I would like for everyone to know that I was not bred, Mr. Zack would not allow it he said; I have enough on my plate raising my siblings that I don't need any more babies to drag me down especially not at my age, I have things to learn I need to learn how to cook and I need to learn how to fit in to the lifestyle they are and enter into a career of my choice, yes I have a choice of what I want to do with my life because I am in charge of me as all of you can be too and will be now that the Z1 has taken over here.

Ty went out into the group and started talking to them one-on-one, assuring them that everything was going to be okay. As soon as we can get some new housing at the Z1 those who wish to move can move there but if you intend to stay here the place will be going to auction and the new owners may not want Genmen here because let's face it the houses these are shacks that barely good enough for rackknar much less Genmen with children.

Zack assured him all that food was being sent in on transports so that there would be plenty to eat there would be no more empty bellies here and certainly not any mash for them to consume.

Constantine said some goodbyes and had the boys pick up what they could though it wasn't much that they owned to take to their new home. Richie asked if they still had to sleep on the floor at the new place on a pallet like they did now.

Zack walked up behind the young man and leaned down, young man you will have your very own bed in a room that you will share with your middle brother Eli, he will stay in Constantine's room in a crib. You will have your own kitchen so that Constantine can cook for you and you will have your own bathroom inside the house with a toilet that flushes no more privies on the outside that have to be cleaned and shared with others. Zach was surprised when Richie turned around and hugged his neck and thanked him, now when can we go home, I want see this new place.

It won't be long one shall go over to that big cooler over there and open the top of it and there's a drink in there get you one each you don't have to share. Plus, you're about the same age as my grandson Willie and I believe that you are going to be best buds.

Zack stood beside Constantine; looks like the resemblance is close on all of you boys did your dad make sure that he was taken care of by the same breeder every time.

Yes, he said he didn't have much control in life, but all his boys would have the same father. I don't know who it was but he had to be a blonde for the red take over and because Rusty has strawberry blonde hair.

Constantine; we will put the word out and your Dad will be notified where you are at and that he is always welcome to come back to your life if that's what you want, I don't know what happened and why he left you in charge other than you are of age and you are strong but if you don't want them there I understand that to that's up to you.

Mr. Zack; can I have a little while think about it I really want to get the boys settled and me also because we've never had anything in life, I think a little normal this what we need.

Well you'll be living right next to Chas his dad Donnie and his son Xavier, then there's Stephen their roommate and his mate Dr. Clark Wooten. He's heading up our new OBGYN practice there at the Z1 and yes, he's human living with the Genmen mate who's expecting by the way.

Zach left Ty in charge and they boarded the bus and headed toward the Z1 the two youngest boys were exhausted but Richie he was bouncing all over Constantine, asking the world-famous question are we there yet, how much longer is it going to be, are we there yet?

The bus finally pulled up at the Z1 and Zack stepped off the bus leading Constantine who was holding Rusty and the two little ones were clinging on to Zach's legs, Zack walked over to the buggy, put them in his buggy and told Constantine to crawl in the back with the baby.

The boys thought they were big stuff riding in the owner's buggy. None of them could believe the house when Zack pulled up in front. It was just nothing special a two-bedroom cottage on the Z1 but to them it might as well have been the mansion. Because to them it was a mansion, their very own mansion.

Robbie was standing by with a set of keys and handed them to his father-in-law, the boys really clung to Zach when they saw Robbie's size. Zach bent down and told the boys to go in and there were two doors the door to the left was theirs. They raced each other to the room.

Richie open the door and stood there gawking as his little brother walked in, Eli turned around; you can have either bed you want I don't care as long as I get one. The two boys chose their beds and were setting up on them. Eli noticed that he was dirty so he eased off the bed and dusted it off or he had been seated.

Zack walked in and looked around and saw the boys standing afraid to touch anything because the who were quite dirty. Well looks like you two need to bathe and clean clothes I tell you what I'll get you some night shirts to sleep in and you go take a bath then come and play but tomorrow morning when I come to get you two boys we are going to purchase some new clothing.

Richie piped up; it doesn't have to be new they can be used I don't care; we've always made do with whatever we got handed to us. Daddy didn't have any money he was too busy popping out babies for the master.

Zack put two and two together, their dad never went anywhere to be bred they all belong to the same father the ex-owner of the old ranch. No wonder when he got a chance, he ran leaving everything behind because he knew they would never be treated right by the POS. He left his bad memories when he left his children behind.

These four would take some time to break out of their cycle of mental trauma especially Constantine because he knew deep-down who his father was.

Zack cautioned Constantine; you just coming off your cycle and you still smell, if any of the Genman here give you a hard time or try to get next to you or bother you, tell them that Mr. Zach said you were off limits to everyone and if they did anything out of line to you he would have the Royal treatment ready for them. And they know exactly what that means so I don't suspect any of them will step over that line, you tell them that they'll be perfect gentlemen after that.

Constantine took everything in stride, made mental notes of everything that Mr. Zach told him. He was amazed at the cottage what it had to offer his family. There was a knock at the door, Richie ran to the door to answer it, when he answered the door Donnie was standing there with a big plate of food ready for them.

Zack laughed; well it looks like the welcoming committee has arrived so, I'll let you deal with them there also your next-door neighbors and they'll watch after the boys when you're away there's always somebody home. You already know Chas and you will get to know Xavier his son and then there's his future mate Roger.

Constantine thanked Mr. Zack for everything that he had done for the family and especially for Ben, how kind he was and professional. Zach turned got in his buggy and drove off back to the main house.

Donnie, Chas and Stephen help set the table for Constantine and his brothers, Rusty was asleep as most babies are but Richie and Eli were digging into some grub. Richie started talking with his mouth full of food when Constantine snapped his finger and called him down for his bad manners. Richie swallowed his food and apologized to everyone for his bad manners, it was just that he had never had food that tasted like this. He was amazed that there was so much of it and they were allowed to eat, not having to eat just a little bit and saving the rest for the next couple of days' worth of meals.

Donnie laughed; well wait until tomorrow morning when you get up, shower and clean yourself from head to toe, every piece of your body must be scrubbed clean especially behind your ears, young man you just come next-door and I'll be cooking breakfast, during the week we're up early cooking for everyone else at the construction office, the warehouse and other locations on the farm for the workers but tomorrow morning is all about you boys. And that means all of you need to show up Constantine; nobody denies me the right to feed other Genmen.

Constantine swallowed his food and responded; yes, Sir we will all be there will all have our best clothes on that we have until we can go get some new stuff that Mr. Zach was talking about, but I don't know how we can afford it we have no money.

That's okay don't worry about it, Mr. Zack has that taken care of as soon as we get through with breakfast, you're taking a trip into town to Miss Sonia's boutique and she'll have every one of you cleaned up, hair trimmed and some clothes that fit, and that are fitting of you.

Richie could hardly wait until tomorrow morning that way he could see what a real breakfast looked like, no more of Constantine's mash for breakfast that was a savior within its own.

The boys said their goodbyes and went home, their heads it hardly hit their pillows when Eli and Richard were both sound asleep in their own beds for once in their life.

Constantine was exhausted so he laid Rusty down in his brand-new crib and he curled up on his bed for the very first time in his life he wasn't sleeping on the floor on a blanket.

The morning came early and the boys were wound up, they couldn't wait to get next door to see what Mr. Donnie had cooked for breakfast, because of the smell was half as good as what was cooking tasted then they were in for a treat.

Chas checked the boy's hands when they entered the cottage to make sure that they were good and clean, when he was satisfied sent them to the table.

Eli and Richie were amazed at all of the food on the table that was cooked for them, tears started to come down Constantine's face as he stood there looking at his brothers for the first time in their life having food of plenty for breakfast. He was holding Rusty who already had his breakfast in the form of nectar.

Chas motioned for Constantine to bring Rusty to him and they could let him sleep along with Xavier in his crib.

Chas wrapped his arm around Constantine and whispered into his ear, now my friend it's time for you to enjoy life as our guest, hugged him tight and kissed his cheek then slapped him on the ass and sent him to the kitchen.

Everyone was jabbering in carrying on when the front door opened up and a dark shadow entered the room, with Robbie's booming voice thundering out; is this a private affair or can anybody get breakfast because I'm still hungry.

Richie dropped his fork as mouth fell open when he saw the size of Robbie, he muttered out; holy shit your big before he realized what he said.

Yep, learned to eat all of my vegetables when I was a young Genmen growing up, if you eat all of yours, you'll grow big and strong too just look what Chas did, he's big and strong now he used to be a little squirt of a thing.

Constantine looked at his brother that's one Richie; don't let me get to three because you know what that means.

Yes, sir you'll whip my backside and wash my mouth out with soap and I'll learn to love it because that's all I'll eat for the day is soapy water, it won't happen again today "I hope".

Soon the breakfast table was wiped clean there was not a crumb left for Donnie to pick up, Robbie looked around; my father-in-law is busy at the moment and he asked me to take you into town to Miss Sonja's place he will join us shortly and he's to bring my family along Richie wait to meet my son Willie you two are going to get along just fine when you are not fighting with each other over little things you are going be fighting against everybody else, let someone say something against your friend and you will kick his rear.

Constantine looked at Robbie; I don't think so Richie knows that I don't approve of fighting no matter what he's supposed to turn and walk away.

It's all right Constantine when it happens to you but when somebody goes after your friend, you'd be surprised what you will do in life. And I've got strict instructions from Sonja to bring Chas and Xavier with us are she'll kick my butt and that's one woman I don't want to upset. So, father had me take the big unit for all of us.

Constantine had a strange look upon his face and he looked at Robbie; and how are you related to Mr. Zach?

I am together with his and Mr. Ben's son Luther and we share a child who you will see later on when you meet my son Willie.

So, where's the dad to your son at Robbie?

I'm Willie's dad, I birthed him before I met Luther as I did with my other two sons Arlen and Kurt, but I promised no more single parent. I will never have another child that has to be without one of his parents.

I'm confused; did you just say that you have birthed three boys a big guy like you laying down for another Genmen to put a child in you, I figured you'd be top only.

See Constantine you cannot judge a Genman by what you see, we have the best of both worlds we can become dads and birth our children or we can choose to become a father to a child that we have with another, and then we can do both that's what's so special, we can't stand around and talk all day long if I don't get you up there I'm in trouble and I'm not going to cross that woman, I think she knows some voodoo magic and I don't want anything shrinking up.

Donnie started to laugh and as did Stephen and Clark; get out of here ya big goofball, go everybody have a good day today, I'm going to set back I'm going to relax and rest my tired feet now be gone.

Richie thought he was something special, he got to ride next to the big guys up front, Constantine and the three little ones were in the back.

Constantine was the first one in the door ushering in Richie, Eli and carrying Rusty.

Sonja squealed out stop right there; my oh my three gingers and a strawberry on top you must be the new boys, let me guess Richie, Eli and this little strawberry here is Rusty so that just leaves you the one that keeps them all glued together; Constantine. Baby come here let me hug your neck because you deserve an award, willing to give up your virtue to keep your brothers together, sacrificing yourself for the good of all that you loved.

Constantine was shocked when the human female hugged his neck and kissed his cheeks. Sonja started to laugh and his blushing, don't worry baby there's only one Genmen I nibble on that's my Ty.

I am going to have so much fun with y'all today number one I got a little magic to do with you Constantine you going to be one heck of a sex pot when you go out here, but remember nobody gets your virtues and nobody gets to sample your goodies either. And if they try, tell them that Mr. Zach said the Royal treatment they'll get and they will tuck it back in.

Sonja welcomed Robbie to come in for a haircut and a facial and she put her hands on her hips and looked at Chas, boy you'd and got all kinds of sexy on me, I remember where you had him you weren't nothing but a kid all swollen up and trying to push that baby out and look at the hunk you've became. That Roger is one lucky man, when you finally get together it's going to be magic.

The boys were having fun as the ladies of the salon started to trimming their hair and getting them ready for new clothes from the boutique, Constantine did know what to do, his hands were out and people were trimming nails on both sides, his feet were uncovered and they were clean and scrubbed and those in a footbath, miss Sonja had a hot towel on his face with a cream all over it, and was trimming his curly locks.

The Bell on the front door rang again and Willie came running in looking for his dad, didn't take long to find him. The young lady that was trimming Robbie's hair looked at Willie and said young lady either you need a shampoo and set or young man and you need a haircut before someone proposes to you could you look like a little girl at all in curls. Robbie laughed; see there son been telling you that you get out in this human world that mistake you for a little girl and put a dress on you.

An embarrassed Willie replied; ma'am my name is Willie, I'm a boy and I need a haircut just like my daddy told me but I was being hardheaded again as usual.

Would just give me a few seconds young man and I'll take you over after I get finished with your dad, I will wash that dirty mop that you call hair and then I'm going to trim it up real nice for you look like a good respectable young gentleman.

Ma'am I'm not a gentleman I'm a Genman, and I'm proud that I'm a Genman because that means I'm special we're built that way.

Yes, young man you sure are your very special and believe me when you get older, you're going to break some hearts but just don't become a player because don't nobody like a player. You need to find somebody special and be there for special someone yourself.

Willy smiled and went and had a seat waiting for his turn.

Luther came inside bring in the baby along with Zack who looked like he was tired.

Zack was about to turn 36, it wasn't old in human years but with all the hard labor he put in over the time he was tired. Being the father of twins keeping up with them all the grandkids come along and great grandkids they kept on his toes. But he wouldn't have it any other way, he loved his life he just didn't know that his life was going to take a 180° turn.

Constantine stood up out of the seat from Sonja cutting his hair, and Zack had to admit the young man had his looks about him, he would definitely have to watch out for the other Genmen around the farm trying to get into his vent.

Richie jumped out of his seat and hopped up in the chair okay I'm ready for my haircut now, make me look as good as my brother please. Sonja leaned down and kissed the youth on his cheek, it's easy when you have a beautiful young man to work with to make him look gorgeous like I did your brother.

When Chas got a good look at Constantine, he almost lost his breath, he was good-looking in fact he was gorgeous himself. Chas had never thought about a Ginger being attractive but Constantine he rewrote those books. He had to keep on telling himself Roger was at home, Roger was his mate, Roger was who he wanted to sleep with and have children with. He went and took a seat beside Zack.

Zack could see how perplexed the young man was; just because Roger's at home and he's your intended doesn't mean that you and Constantine can't have a little safe fun with each other just be careful don't break his heart and take your time, you're both new to this game and we all need a good friend to rely on.

This confused Chas even more, with Mr. Zack suggesting that he and Constantine should bed one another that he should mount him for the first time. It didn't make anything any easier when Constantine set down beside him and gently brushed his leg with his hand.

Wow she can do miracles by just cutting a Genmen's hair clean him up a little bit I can't wait to see what she does when she fits me for my new clothes, I may have to run from all the other Genmen to save my vent and my virtues.

Chas chuckled and wrapped his arm around Constantine shoulder, don't worry I'm just next door and I'll protect you all will let anyone sully your reputation or your virtue.

Constantine had a strange feeling is Chas held him tight, he wouldn't mind him sullying his virtue not at all, in fact it might feel good to let your friend be your first.

The shop was very busy, Sonja and her staff. Everyone had haircuts, nails trimmed, feet scrubbed ready for a new suit of clothes including the boss man Mr. Zack.

The first three suits of clothing that Richie picked out were a little wild even by human standards much less Genmen's conservative views. But he liked the colors bright, Willie wasn't any better they were almost like two peas in a pod. But when Eli came out Willie stopped dead in his tracks and lost his breath, they might only had been a little over nine months apart Willie realized he had already found his soulmate they just had to grow up first.

Willy's reactions did not escape his dad, Robbie looked at Constantine and leaned over, seems like we might have to keep an eye on those two in the future because they could get into some major problems. Constantine agreed he knew that look as an adult he knew what puppy love was and he knew what the future love was.

Richie was oblivious to everything that was going on around him all he was worried about was his new clothes the first new ones he'd ever had in his life and Eli he was just his kid brother showing out, had his little narrow genman ass trying to stick it in the air like he was something big walking around in his new clothes.

It was Constantine's turn to come out in front of everyone, he was a little nervous, never had his clothes showed his body off like these did.

Robbie swallowed hard and had to admit wow the young man was a knockout; Chas placed a magazine over his lap because he suddenly got an erection that was threatening to indicate to the world that he was hot for him some Constantine. It didn't help matters that Constantine was strutting his stuff back and forth showing off his new clothing and his very generous ass.

The day was coming to an end for the shopping trip and everyone was getting ready to load back up Luther hugged his father and told him good luck with the future Zach had no idea what that meant. Constantine and his brothers left with Zack Robbie and his family went to their home, Willie was lovesick and all he wanted to do was go visit the new family especially Eli.

Luther looked at Robbie; you're going to have to have a talk with your son a little bit sooner than what you thought he is not going to wait to he's 18 or after he transitions that boy is going to get off in that other one and they going to have a problem because they're not going to use anything we all know at 16 if both of the Genman or so of affected by each other one can come into cycle early before transition it's natural but very uncommon and we don't need no 16-year-old Eli walking around with a big old belly swollen up by Willie and his overactive Willy.

Willie was the equivalent of a 15-year-old almost 16 now, and Robbie sat his son down. Willie, we need to have a father-son talk and you know what it's about the birds the bees and watch out and don't get into rosebushes and do not pop the knothole in that tree.

Willie started laughing until his father called him down, he looked at his dad who was all serious and realized that Luther was also.

Today young man you experienced the first signs of attraction to your future mate, wither you realize it or not. And we're going to have a talk here about the do's and the don'ts when it comes to a certain young man that has caught your adolescent fancy. If he's agreeable and you wish to kiss him that's fine but you will not place your hands anywhere on him or on his body. In other words, keep your fingers out of his vent, we don't need you dipping in your prong in his vent especially if it's uncovered, he's way too young for you to try to get into and sample his goodies.

There may only be nine months in human years but he's just turning 13 physically and his body is given all these unusual signs off. You'll feel funny down between your legs and you'll get what is known as an erection when you're around him, and be a little embarrassing for you to walk around with your prong sticking up but it's quite common especially when your hormones are just starting you need to wait to your 17 to 18 before anything other than just a touchy-feely happens he will be older and just starting about 16 we all mature out at different ages.

You may transition 18, and he might not transition until he's 20 and fiscal years. We grow according to the level of love that we have in our life is Genmen. Now that you are going to be a little closer to him, he may start speeding up he might even bypass his own brother Richie.

Willie turn red in the face, so you know about Eli and my feelings. Young man we haven't been talking about the wall his entire time we just hadn't named names but yes I know that you're horny I know that you have feelings for Eli that that's all you can see in your future is Eli and Eli's vent, but heed my warning were just talking right now don't make me put him off limits for you to see if you disrespect yourself and you most importantly disrespect him and his family. His brother's having the same talk with him as we're having with you maybe not quite as literal but it's still going on.

Sure' enough Constantine was having a seat on the sofa with the two oldest boys. Richie, Eli we need to have a talk you're both getting older and your maturing out at a rapid rate. Your bodies are going to change is already believe me I can tell and you won't take as long as I did to transition it will happen before you know it, someone has already attracted a future mate you just don't realize it yet but he's already got your scent and you two will and up together no matter how hard you to fight and there's nothing that his parents or I can do about it you will eventually find a way to be together, but I want you to be safe because you don't need to be stupid reckless done or ignorant and end up pre-transition with a swollen belly as it can happen after what I saw today the pull is great between you two in everything will lineup and unprotected you'll conceive a child that neither of you will be ready for.

Richie set there with his mouth open, Constantine I'm not looking for any by I'm not going to be on the bottom getting humped. I intend to be a top and I want to be a breeder maybe Mr. Ben will show me when I get old enough. Richie turned to his brother Eli and looked at him, you slut, it's you you're horny, you got the hots for don't tell me, Willie. If He grows up to be anything like his dad you'll be walking sideways and if you took a full stride your guts would fall out.

Eli looked down and started to cry, I can't help it he's just so cute something happened deep inside me and I got all hot and my stomach got queasy.

Constantine hugged his middle brother, it's called fate my brother, but don't rush anything you two have a lot of time to get to know each other before ever think about consummating your relationship. I'll have a talk with Robbie about Willie and you. I don't want either of you to be hurt by rushing into something that you're not ready for, you do understand that I love you and I want to keep you safe but there's a difference between us brothers and people like Robbie and Willie and other Genmen so I need you boys to sit down here in this to me and what I found out from Lex and Mr. Zack about us and what makes us special.

Richie, Eli you know that we all have the same dad and he left, he had fulfilled his obligations at the ranch and he wanted nothing else to do with anything so he packed his bags and ran because he was ignorant to his own body. But what you two don't know is that all of his brothers were true brothers we have the same father, but what you don't realize and I didn't know what me there were subtle differences in my body structure but I didn't pay it no mind I thought it was just because dad wasn't choosy and he went with whatever stuck him first.

But the truth of the matter is when he left us for 3 to 4 days to conceive another child, he didn't go anywhere but up to the main house and he laid in the owner's bed and the owner mounted him and put another child in his belly. The owner didn't know how to treat us, we were his children but we were stinking Genmen nasty vile creatures he only did it for payback he considered that we were worth something at least if he could knock enough of us up into dad, then after four single pregnancies our dad picked his bags up and left in the middle the night.

Yes we are hybrids so therefore our insides are little bit different from normal Genmen and our vent is definitely smaller than a pure blood, so when we're mounted for the first time if it's by pure blood Genman he's gonna do some damage because were not big enough to take him, but as you know some humans are large also so you need to pick your mates carefully, not only can you be hurt on the inside, you can be ripped on the outside by being spread to wide, the first time that you and your intended have relations with each other.

Mr. Ben knew it the first time, when he made me pop my vent out so he could see it before he was to breed me. He touched me there and he opened me with his fingers to double check and that's when he stopped because my form for this breeding program was incorrect. I marked pure blood by inspection he knew I wasn't so he knew something that I was unaware of and he wouldn't do anything else and when he got to questioning me little things came out that I didn't realize I knew about myself.

That's how you know that you're around quality people Mr. Ben has been doing this long enough here on the Z1 with Mr. Zack's approval. Personally, I don't know what I'm going to do, Mr. Zack said he will not let me be bred for at least two more cycles I will never conceive a child as far as he's concerned on the Z1 unless I wait and let myself mature on the inside. You two don't realize how fortunate we are to be living here yes, we've got a home now that we never had, we've got to beds that we never had, you've got clothing, I've got clothes I've never had before that's all because of Mr. Ben and Mr. Zack who owns the place. We've been blessed by those who care, and would never going to do anything to mess this up, you hear me boys be on your best behavior and avoid temptation at all cost.

A knock come at the door Richie went to open it, it was Chas and he had Xavier and Rusty with him one attached to each nipple. Richie started laughing; you look like a big old milk cow standing there with those two kids suits your right.

Constantine had to giggle to a little bit, here let me have Rusty and I'll finish feeding him.

Oh no, they both drained me dry now they get to have a second round on you Constantine; both of them if I can feed them both so can you.

Constantine sit down on the couch and took one child at a time and let them find the nipple on their own and they were soon nursing him gently.

Damn boy you must be a natural at that, they latched onto my nips and it was like a drag race they would try to see who could suck the hardest and get the most out of each gland.

Have a seat Chas I'll just telling the boys about the birds and the bees and not to get caught out too early behind that tree or else you'll be waddling with a big belly before it's your time.

Richie looked at Chas and as a child will, he popped out the first question; just how did you get knocked up so young, were you ignorant and Bend over for the first Genmen that come around you sniffing or was it one the other young men that you are hanging around got a hold of your virtues and took your goodies from you?

I wished it had been like that replied Chas; thanks to the Z1 and a few things that happened at the corporate ranch that I was raised on we were freed, my dad who I didn't know was my dad was also in the breeding program as a top, I had grown up in the program and this was my first pregnancy implant.

You see Richie they gave us a special medicine left over from the slave days on the ship, that brings you in to your cycle as young as 16, way before your transition. It's called Genconmide it was put up inside of our bellies through our vent, that causes you to mature out early on the inside and as soon as the process is over and you cycle, they send a breeder into you who is drugged with Thorcon he mounts you and breeds you. Neither one of you know what's going on because you're too far out of it.

We were told that we had a virus that would make our belly swell and when we got to certain point we needed to go and they would help to remove the virus, but they couldn't guarantee that they would get all, sometimes it would take three swellings. Which I found out were three pregnancies then you go into your transition and they farm you out to other ranches, like breeding stock or if you were like my dad, you're sent to be a top breeder for the younger Genmen that are coming up in the program.

You saw that my dad is expecting, he thought this was his first pregnancy only to find out from Lex that this is his fourth. Through DNA matching, which all of us have our blood taken just a little pinprick you probably have already had it done yourself by Lex, that would be a machine that touched on your finger and bit you, it tells you all about your DNA, who you are and who you're related to. They do it here for all of the breeding's that take place and everyone that comes to live here, so that close family relations don't cross and accidentally conceived children together.

That's how they know so much about everybody, and it's because Mr. Zack really cares about us.

Wow, remarked Richie, they really do care about the Genmen who live on the Z1 and our health and safety. I didn't know humans did that.

Not all of them do Richie; but it's just who Mr. Zack is, he's been doing it for over 20 years, though it always hasn't been easy for him there's been a lot of bumps in the road he's had fortunes, misfortune and tragedy in his lifetime but he never gives up on us Genmen and we won't ever let him down.

If you feel up to another trip I want to meet someone that lives here and she's responsible for all this building out front and the side over there is were the new interactive exhibit Museum, Library, Cultural Center and my dad's restaurants going to be there along with other things here on the Z1, her husband is designing all the exterior gardens, walking paths and everything throughout both farms here and next-door at the Hawthorne ranch. You all will love her, her name's Miss Emma and just let you know yes, she's human, her husband Leo is human, so is their new daughter Allison, but Max who is expecting Leo's son Erin is Genman and he serves as a wet nurse for Allison.

Okay guys I need to make a call and verify that Emma can give us a tour today or when is her earliest time so give me a few minutes.

Chas returned to about 10 minutes later; I talked to Emma and she issued an apology she says the site will be clean enough tomorrow for us to come and meet her there at about 10 AM and she wants us to be the first ones to see the unfinished works of the ultimate Genmen. So, we can do anything else today we can go all over the ranch we can stand around and do nothing are we let everybody else, catch up and be kids so Constantine and I can be young adults.

The two boys were ecstatic they could go terrorize somebody and eat cookies all day if Mr. Donnie had any made, and they headed out the front door going next-door.

Constantine grabbed a pillow and hugged it as he set down, he motioned for Chas to sit also he wanted to talk.

Chas how did you know that Roger was your intended how did you feel around him.

Dude oh it's the first time I smelled him, the first time I saw him I wanted off in his vent, in fact I let my fingers do the walking I got myself all up in their I felt him up I went in there deep I made him almost jumped out of his seat. And believe me I have my fingers in him locked always when we sit beside each other I reach over and slide my hand down in his pants and play with his vent and it just about drives him insane. I can't wait until I make love to him, I don't want to have sex I want to make him climb up the walls as I make sweet love to him and put my child deep inside of him so 19 months we can welcome our son together, Xavier already thinks he's his father and Roger has done nothing to dissuade him from this so we will be together is just a matter of time. Don't worry Constantine you will find the right mate and you'll be head over heels just like I am with Roger.

Constantine couldn't tell Chas he felt for him the same way he felt for Roger but it couldn't be so he would put his crush out of his mind and start looking around at other suitable mates.

Chas hugged his friend, let's see if the little twerps are awake yet and ready to go back to uncle Stephen and Donnie's place for a little midafternoon fun.

Chas and Constantine walked in to the front door and were met by two very hyped up young Genmen in the middle of a sugar rush. Stephen was laughing, Donnie was exhausted and the boys were all over the place.

Didn't take Constantine but one snap of his finger and a growl, Richie and Eli stopped in their tracks and apologized for being so out of control.

Donnie walked over and wrapped his arm around Constantine, you have to show me that trick later on, because between Stephen and me having a child each a month apart it's going to get loud here because Xavier will be full blast too. But right now young man I'm going to take Rusty, the boys are going to lay down in a few minutes for a nap and you need to go out and explore walk around get to know things around here by yourself who knows you might walk up and find someone that tickles your fancy or at least your vent.

Thanks Mr. Donnie but I'm not ready for anybody to tickle my vent, but it would be nice to meet someone besides Chas to have an intelligent conversation with.

Stephen snickered; just don't get too smart with some of these Genmen around here they're not sophisticated and they still dragged their knuckles and grunt.

Well Stephen just because you got you a fancy doctor Genmen are not sophisticated and dragged her knuckles and grunt I guess that was good enough for you to start out with.

Donnie and Stephen both laughed and agreed Constantine needed to go for a walk by himself since Chas was expecting company at any time.

Constantine was out for a and found himself close to the main house when he saw Harry's garden, it was beautiful so much time in love when into this place it must be for someone very special.

Harry popped his head up and waved it Constantine, you must be one of the new ones that just arrived I believe your name is Constantine let me introduce myself I'm Harry Spinelli, Zack is my husband and I see that you appreciate the finer things in life such as this beautiful garden that he had created for me.

Constantine smiled and made small talk with Harry and was invited in for a cool drink and to have a seat so that he could appreciate the flowers even more.

They set there and talk like they were old friends not new acquaintances, Constantine found talking to Harry was relaxing and he could talk about anything. As he finished up his drink, he told Harry that he needed to get back to the boys because he had been gone too long.

What don't make yourself a stranger the twins are down for a nap at this time but I have my hands full later on bring your brothers by to the main house for a visit and a light brunch one day, who knows one day we may be carrying at the same time.

Harry and I'm a hybrid nobody will want to bed a hybrid we're not good quality.

Don't sell yourself short Constantine you are a looker and anyone, Genmen or human would be lucky to have you grace their bed as a partner. Just keep your eyes and your options open, don't let first one that starts feeling around you don't go for that, make him work for it, if they want to work for it then maybe he has enough class.

On the way back to the house Constantine got a couple of wolf whistles out of a few guys, but he did not show them any interest because a whistle means no class.

Constantine went back picked up the boys and took them home and they relaxed as a family.

Zack swallowed deeply as he knocked on his son-in-law's door nobody liked to go deliver messages like this, with him was Martin and Hanz.

Robbie open the door all smiles and welcomed his father-in-law in and was surprised to see Martin and Hanz with him.

They walked inside and Zack told Robbie to have a seat they need to talk and it was very important, Robbie had a sinking feeling in his stomach something wasn't right.

Son when's the last time you heard from your boys, Arlen particularly.

Almost a year Mr. Zack he's got that publishing job and his life in the city you know he didn't want to grow up a Genmen he's always wanted and always thought he should've been human. I didn't discourage him I just told him that he had to be 10 times more careful than anyone else if he was going to try to pass himself off as human. Is there something wrong?

Martin took the lead; Robbie there was an incident in the city and Arlen was involved, it wasn't good physically he's okay but mentally he's in a bad place.

What's happened to my boy, I need to see him, the full weight of situation brought the big man down to his knees.

Arlen and his human partner were attacked at their home yesterday, Alec made sure that Arlen was safe and got him to a panic room. Alec wasn't so lucky.

They had been living together for almost 2 years they been passing themselves off as a gay couple in order to live together and they even got married, everything had been going great until there was an incident and Arlen conceived. They were over the top he made it to six months, he took a leave of absence from his job working from home so they could hide the pregnancy.

There was a problem in the condominium, and unannounced a new employee for the building walked in on a very pregnant Arlen. There was no way he could hide who he was or yet what he was, Alec tried to smooth things over with the maintenance person and they thought they had succeeded.

That was until later that afternoon when he returned with three of his buddies, Genmen hating buddies. He used a passkey to come into the house after he disabled the entrance alarm they went after Arlen but being the aggressive huge human that Alec was protecting his mate and the dad of his child, he gave Arlen enough time to get into a panic room and seal himself off.

He alerted the authorities but they didn't get there in time, Alec was severely beaten and as they got ready to leave one of the others, a young man with high up parents in the government turned around and shot him in his abdomen. As they left, one of the neighbors came in to find Alec bleeding profusely, Arlen didn't care who knew what he was, his mate was lying there bleeding to death waiting on medical help, he had come out of the panic room and rushed to his side.

A crowd of neighbors gathered in the apartment unable to do anything as Arlen held onto his dying partner, according to the authorities Alec was more worried about the baby and Arlen as he knew he would not be around to see his son be born or grow up.

The story is the hottest topic, all the blotters and all news channels. Rights groups have already taken up the cause, the anti-hatred against Genmen and the humans who choose to love them as equals.

Robbie was beside himself; Luther was holding tight as Martin continued the story. He was lucky that when he was transported to Hawthorne Medical Center due to the pregnancy and the trauma that Clark was there, along with Ed who was attending business. The GBI has taken full control of the case and is going for the maximum allowed punishment for all those involved in the murder of Alec Reed, and attempted murder of Arlen Reed and their unborn child. The defense will argue that the marriage was not valid because of the genetics of Arlen being a Genmen. But the prosecution is already stated that they were a legally married couple in the eyes of the law and the only way that they can drop the charges, or to dismiss anything is if they make the marriage Null and Void but it's been two years with the baby on the way I don't see any jury tossing it out much less a judge if he wants to be reelected in this time and day to go against it.

Clark has got Arlen partially sedated and is bringing them home.

Zack walked up to his son-in-law, we're taken care of all the arrangements and Alec will be placed in the family plot. It will be someplace that Arlen and the boy can visit later on so that he can know his father. Our number one priority is Arlen his health and safety and the baby here at the Z1 he doesn't have to be worried about being mobbed by news crews or anything else I will double security staff on the gates and he can mourn his loss in peace and quiet.

Martin's communicator beeped, it was Ed they were coming in and would soon touch down, Robbie needed to meet them at the landing port. A whole invading Armada couldn't keep Robbie away from the port, one of his babies was coming home.

It did not take long for the incident to reach every member of the family that comprised the entire Z1 because at the Z1 you are all family. All work stopped a double line appeared all the way to the landing port. They weren't alone there was plenty of news jumpers in the air recording at all, Ed's jumper landed.

Robbie stood there waiting for the door to open, when Arlen saw his dad he collapsed into his arms. Robbie scooped him up and held his son who was very pregnant and he took a step backward.

Out from the jumper came Alec's casket, and in full Genmen tradition the two rows of Genmen stepped forward and passed Alec's casket hand-to-hand as he made his trip to its final destination in the family plot. This was something that the outside world had never witnessed before the tragic passing of a family member. A full Genman traditional funeral and burial was performed. It was a live feed so there was no interrupting by anyone, no preempting no editing this was live, so that the whole world knew how civilized Genmen really were and how they felt about one of theirs even though he was human but he was married and partnered with a Genmen was struck down in such a horrible evil manner when he was murdered. Robbie followed the casket as it went up the line, caring his son.

Zack thought to himself, this is a senseless tragedy but maybe from tragedy something good will become because no politician self-centered or otherwise could deny how civilized Genmen really were as they mourned the death of Alec's husband and father to his child.

The gates to the Z1 which were always open were slammed shut and protected by armed guards on both sides. Reporters lined up outside the gate trying to get a glimpse of anything that was happening, only the jumpers which stated a respectable height could see into the compound and what was really happening.

Burial was completed and Robbie took Arlen home to be with his little brother's, he decided that he needed to speak for the family and ask for calm, understanding and for peace. From tragedy great strides could be made but that's only if all sides came together, they asked for their solace at this time until Alec was ready to do an interview and it would only be done by a person of their choosing.

Zack went to the front gate with Robbie and asked for quiet from all reporters so that Robbie the dad of Arlen could make a statement, " We ask for this moment in time so that we can have closure and mourn the death of a family member, my son Arlen has lost the love of his life and the father of his child that he carries within him, it will be hard for him to explain to the boy when he's older why his father had to die because he loved someone who was different, Arlen when it's deemed that he can, will do an interview and will only give one, he's a publicist as a career choice and well versed in the media. He is surrounded by loved ones who will help take care of him and protect him, please respect our privacy here on the Z1, we are a family here every Genmen that lives here is a family member because that's what the Z1 is, we are one big family and family watches out for everyone with a sister ranch next door great things will come, but at this time we are asking you please leave us to our mourning at this time" thank you and goodbye.

Zack was very surprised at civility of the news media, normally there is a pack of rabid rackknars maybe since Alec was human and the viciousness of the crime, they could actually see the humanity and how it shattered lives.

Robbie was back at the house and set beside Arlen to leaned over his father's chest and cried Robbie reached over and rubbed his belly to calm the child down. My son he will know everything how brave his father was murdered to ensure that he had the right to life so that he would live. Arlen you to lay down and rest little bit, I'll come and check in on you. Luther and the boys will be checking on you, but you need to rest. We will have the family plot fixed, Mr. Zach said it will be made into a meditation style garden for you and the baby, so that you can spend all the time that you wish.

Luther helped Arlen to the bedroom, helped him into bed, placing a light cover over him.
