The Z-1 Ranch P-81 CGW©
The student transit tour called in to the Z-1, one of the older students was very sick and the chaperones felt that they should return sooner than expected. They only needed to cut off the last two ranches.
Zach was little concerned; do I need to send out a jumper and pick the student up and let you continue on for the rest of the students?
The chaperone responded; no sir I think we need to come back as a group, he has been sick for almost a week now. Every time he eats, he's sick. It's not contagious but it does happen sometimes to some young Genmen sir.
Okay what's the students name so I can notify the parents and they can wait on him?
It's Franklin's son, Harvey. We watched everyone as close as we could but even with our best effort, he slipped away one evening and did not report back until morning.
Where in the hell did this happen at all what ranch or what farm?
The first farm we broke down and we spent two days there, the next ranch we ended up three days there due to another mechanical malfunction, he was missing between the second evening and third morning. He swears he was okay he was just lost.
And you think he's not telling you the truth?
I think the young man is terrified of what has happened. He is a good young man; I just think he came in contact someone that was a lot more skilled than him and he took advantage.
Ben was listing to the entire conversation; have them return. We need to bring Franklin in and notify him, there might have been an incident.
Well, if you're going to bring Franklin you might as well have Rico and Rusty step in also. Because if it's what we think it is, someone's going to need a lot of support.
Everyone was gathered in the reading room; Franklin was confused at best.
I asked all of you to come here because no matter what contingency we plan for, when we send our kids abroad on the yearly trip things can happen.
They are coming back this afternoon, I know their early but Harvey is ill.
Does he need to go to the hospital, is he okay, what's wrong?
Franklin, we don't know yet but there is an idea. We must wait until he gets here so that we can find out.
I don't want to speculate or hypothesize of what might or might not have taken place on the trip. Until the transit bus arrives, we just have to keep our sorts about us.
Franklin was very worried; the boys don't know their dad has gone and now here's one of them coming back ill, no telling what is wrong with the young man.
Rico looked at Mr. Ben and the look on his face told him a lot. Rico stood up and walked across the room and motioned for Mr. Ben to follow him. Rusty noticed the gentle nudges by his mate and followed suit.
Mr. Ben you know something? Tell me so I can be prepared to support my father.
According to the chaperone your little brother disappeared between the evening of the second day and the morning of the third. He swears he's okay but last week he began throwing up everything he has been eating. It doesn't sound good.
Is he not passed his cycle date?
Rico; We would never send one out during his cycle no matter what but that doesn't mean a human didn't get with him.
Oh crap, I forgot about that, dad would never let the boys know about humans and contact of a reproductive nature. He said his children would never be with the human so he wasn't worried.
Rusty spoke up; how did you get so smart, you notified me about that the very first time we were considering sleeping together? Even made me wear a condom just in case.
I got away from dad, I would read everything that I wasn't supposed to read when dad wasn't looking. I didn't want to be a dumb ignorant Genmen. I wanted to be informed and make a correct informed decision.
Harvey doesn't know nothing, other than when it's your time you bend over and hope he is a good mate or he can at least throw a good child.
Three hours later the transit pulled in, a person from medical was waiting there with a wheelchair to take Harvey inside the main house. When Harvey arrived along with Benton the two were ushered to the reading room where Franklin was waiting along with their brother Rico and his husband Rusty.
It was a very happy affair; Benton couldn't wait to hug his father and he started chattering like a digger whip. Rico took Harvey to the side because he could tell the young man was ready to blow chunks at any second.
Harvey couldn't believe Rico when he saw him all swollen with child. How did that happen?
One night I told my husband yes, and we created this beautiful little life that I'm carrying. I would like for you to meet your brother-in-law Rusty Numen yes, we are married.
Where's dad he can't see me sick like this, I didn't mean for anything to happen.
Don't worry about dad that's not even about this subject. I want you to tell me exactly what happened on that second stop. From what I can understand you were with everyone on the second night then you disappeared and reappeared the next morning, no matter what it is I'm here to listen and so will Rusty. I'm not going to prejudge you at all, but you should tell me the truth.
Can we go to another room, I don't want father to find out?
He's going to find out that you are with, only time will do that but if you need privacy I understand.
Ben closed the doors to the private reading nook so that Rico and Rusty could hear what Harvey had to say. Franklin saw what happened, and he was glad that Rico was here with the support of his mate to help Harvey.
Okay brother, we are alone and you have our undivided attention.
Everything was wonderful, there was a meal that was a celebration dinner for all to attend. There was as tall blonde-haired man that kept on smiling at me. He was so good looking and his eyes were like to stars in the sky blue as all could be. He came over and spoke to me and we danced. He was very nice and treated me very well. He got me some punch and everything was nice.
Then I member getting a little dizzy because of the heat, he helped me go outside for some fresh air then things got a little fuzzy. We were no longer at the party but we were in a room in a house. He walked up to me and he kissed me, he put his arms around me and pulled me close to him. Then my shirt was gone and it felt funny when he put his lips on one of my glands, he moved from one to the other and it just felt different. I felt something behind me and realized his hand was down the back of my pants and he had a finger in my vent.
I tried to push him away but he just held me tighter, he began to kiss me all over and his finger went deep. I asked him to stop but he told me I would love it, he touched something inside of my vent and my body went limp. I don't know how it happened, but I was lying on my back on the bed, my legs were bent back toward me and he was crawling on top of me.
I told him no and I wanted to leave. He told me just to shut up and I would love it. Suddenly it felt like my body had been split in two as he fell on top me with all of his weight. I realized he was inside of me and I hurt. He began to move his body in and out of mine, he wasn't gentle it was rough and he made it hurt every time he went deep. Suddenly it felt like my insides were opened up and being filled with hot liquid as I felt my insides expand.
He laid on top me huffing and puffing, I began to cry and he told me to shut up, that I loved it. And he was going to do it a lot more in fact he did it five times to me that night. My insides burned like they were on fire, when I complained to him, he told me just to suffer bitch. The next morning, I attempted to ease out from `neath him. He woke up and put himself back inside of me and hurt just as bad as the first time, after a while he placed himself deep inside of me once again and when he released himself it burned very bad this time.
When he was through, he got up and told me I had made a mess of him and the bed with my blood, I needed to get my nasty bloody Genmen self out of his quarters. He threw my clothing at me which I put on, straightened myself the best I could and limped back to the dorm we were staying. I told the chaperone that I had twisted an ankle during the night and I stayed out because it was too painful to walk home. I didn't tell nobody what happened not until you.
I don't know what happened and why did it burn, I can't be can I?
Rico felt sympathy for his brother, nothing like that should ever take place to anyone, with the new laws someone had to be held accountable.
Rusty sat down beside Harvey and wrapped his arm around the young man. I promise you one thing my dear brother-in-law, the one who did this will pay dearly. I know that all of you young men love to take selfies and shots to post between each other, did you get any pictures of the person that did this to you.
Yes, I did, until now I had forgotten about them. They're on my flash cam, I got some pictures of him by himself and two or three with us together, a couple of my friends took them for me. Why do you need them?
Harvey let's just say it's asshole season and I am going to hunt a particular breed of asshole. Your brother will give you my device number and I need you to send me those photos. Do not get upset and erase them, you need to keep those for proof.
Proof of what? So, he made himself known to me, I shouldn't have been there.
Rusty looked at Rico, fill your younger brother in on the birds and the bees and what happens when humans are in the trees.
Harvey still didn't understand the gravity of the situation, he sent the photos to Rusty's number and sat there as Rico explained to him what happens to Genmen of all ages when they go to bed with humans and do not take proper precautions.
Harvey busted out in tears sobbing profusely. Rusty left the private area and asked Mr. Ben to step in and give Rico some assistance.
Rusty took a seat beside Franklin, father we need to talk about Harvey. He is confused now more than ever and he needs your understanding as his father, he does not need to be prejudged by anyone because he was naïve. It seems that someone that was a little more skillful took advantage of him on the second ranch and by the time that they parted company he had planted a child inside of Harvey. He is a low-down filthy piece of trash that gets by on his good looks preying on others no doubt.
Franklin broke down in tears, did he hurt him?
Let's just say that Harvey didn't know what was going on until after it happened, he was never taught about conception and how it really took place. And yes, your boy did suffer, but that worthless piece of shit is going to suffer greatly when I get my hands on him.
Mr. Zach you don't need to know anything, that way you can claim no knowledge but I need to know the second place they stopped at on the trip and I need a ride. The driver will not witness anything.
Ben looked at Franklin and looked back at Rusty, I think someone is a little bit angry and I fear that it might not end so well for the receiving party.
Rusty walked out of the room and left the mansion walking down the drive, Madison pulled up beside him in a speeder. I understand that we're going on a road trip and it is to be a very educational one at that.
Rusty got into the speeder and handed Madison the name of the ranch that they were going to be visiting.
Silver Dollar Ranch sounds like a cheap gin joint to me the kind that anything is available for price.
Yep, but it's going to cost one human a very steep price, stop by the construction office I need a marking iron. Madison replied, your wish is my command; I am only to drive but would like to observe you in action.
You don't want to see this, don't want a scar your vision of me.
Oh, I want to see it, you forget I'm a father and I have brothers-in-laws too.
Okay Madison but not a word to anyone.
My lips are sealed, but if you need a hand, I'm there for you. I've got too much of old earth in me to let my Goran bloodlines dictate my actions. Rusty showed him the picture of the young man in question. I don't think he's going to look like that by the time he meets up with you.
Madison noticed the black detention wrist lock. This guy meant business; he wasn't messing around.
Almost 3 hours later and Madison pulled up to the front gate of the Silver Dollar Ranch, he showed the attendant at the gate the picture of the young man that they were needing to locate.
You're from Z1? You'll find Chip at the end of the lane first building on the right. Between me and you he is out of control, I heard what he did to one of your young men. In fact, it made me sick when he bragged about him begging as he tore him up.
It was all Rusty could do to stay in the vehicle as Madison pulled into the ranch and headed to the building where Chip was at.
Rusty; take a breather and plan out what you're going to do, don't give him a chance to get an upper hand or try to make excuses. I'll be behind you and no one will interfere.
Madison Parked the speeder and both men got out, Rusty had no doubt who Chip was. He was the loudest one there. Rusty strolled up to where Chip was standing. Chip Summers we need to talk.
As Chip went to turn to face Rusty, he rudely blurted out, just who in the fuck do you think you are disturbing my conversation. The next thing Chip experienced was a sudden explosion in the left side of his face and his teeth flying out of his mouth as he was knocked face first onto the concrete by Rusty's massive blow.
Chip didn't have time to react as Rusty jumped on his back and smashed his face into the concrete shattering his nose.
I'll tell you who the fuck I am, I'm the brother-in-law of a very naïve and sheltered young Genmen that you took advantage of a few weeks ago. He begged you and he begged you not to do what you did to him, to get off him but did you listen Hell no. And you Muther Fucker are going to pay dearly for what you did to him. You see he's back at the Z1, and in less than nine months he will be birthing your son. He had no idea what was going on but of course, when you're drugged nobody does.
Rusty ratcheted Chip's left arm up so high behind his back that he heard it pop when his shoulder was dislocated. Chip screamed out in pain but nobody came to his defense.
So, you like marking young purebloods for life your seed. Let's see how you like it when someone marks your ass for life. Now you will be Z1 property for life. Rusty maneuvered around and yanked Chip's pants down exposing his right buttocks. He reached in his back pocket and removed the marking iron pushed the button and branded the young man for life. When the sizzling was through it read "Property of the Z1 Ranch" on his right buttocks.
Chip was moaning and groaning and crying. Rusty didn't care he was just getting started. He hauled off and kicked him in the balls as hard as he could. My dear piece of trash, because that's all you are, pure trash. You will pay hell for what you did to Harvey Spinelli. Yes, that's right carries he same name as the owner of the ranch. You're damned lucky that I am here because if it was someone else your balls would be missing, you would be stripped and carried out to the back 40. And let me tell you, once you go out there you never come back.
Rusty clamped and locked the wrist restraint on Chip's arm, this here is a tracking device, if you attempt to leave the ranch for any reason it will set off an alarm that goes off at the Z1. It will inject you with a paralytic compound and if you don't get the antidote, you die bitch. One third of your pay will be deducted until the baby is born, after the child is born you will be brought to the Z1 and made to bond with him.
When he transitions if he wishes to have anything to do with you it'll be at his desire not yours. And since you're so stupid and you don't realize what new the law reads now, he will carry your name and you will be responsible for him as he grows until transition. If he wishes to go to university, you will pay 100% of his education. The days of Fuck them and leave them because they're just stupid Genmen is over.
And by the way, you don't want me to send his uncle Tim out here to see you because he can dismantle you, and no doctor will be able to put you back together. You think I've been rough on you; boy you haven't seen anything.
Someone needs to take this piece of trash to medical and get his teeth put back in, someone might be willing to sleep with him, but not with his teeth knocked out.
Let the word get around, when the young ones come through for their educational tour, they are off-limits to Genmen, Hybrids and especially humans. Next time I might not be around and someone else will show up that isn't so nice like I am. Madison cracked all his knuckles at one time and the whole room cringed.
Now hardhead the next time someone says no or please stop, you had better remember that no means no and stop means to quit doing what you are doing.
Rusty took a deep breath, I need a tall glass of cool water anybody got a cold one. Everyone in the room jumped up at one time trying to assist him.
Within the hour Rusty and Madison left the compound, the young man at the gate shook Rusty's hand and thanked him.
As Madison drove away back to the Z1. Damn, I didn't know anybody had that much strength in their body to hit someone else like you hit him.
It's not something that I'm proud of Madison, but when it comes to protecting your family, you summon up all the strength that you can possibly find.
Madison spoke; My dad hid us out in an area on the station but watching your family being blasted to pieces through the cracks in the walls gives you a new perspective on life. Seeing your granddad take a phaser blast that left a gaping hole within his body is one thing I will never forget. I understand what you mean Rusty, you will do anything when it comes to family protection.
When Rico feels like it maybe you and your mate can come over, he can cook very good and I'm not bad myself. But I am training in the main house under Rocco for pastries and desserts.
Oh, hell that's one Genmen that deserves an award, his pastries are second to none. I try to get to the main house before all of them are gone. Mr. Zach knows I do it and he doesn't mind, he has talent. Whoever lands him as a mate will be very lucky. He didn't have it easy before he arrived here in fact one day, you're just gonna have to sit down and talk with him.
After my training if he wishes to divulge it to me, I will listen.
I don't know if you realize it Rusty, watch him when Franklin comes through, I swear he has the hots for him and with everything that happened he's a free man now.
You know to think about it, Rocco did bring breakfast pastries to the house the other morning. Just said he was being neighborly. Maybe you're right, but Franklin I don't know if he even remembers how.
Are you kidding me? It's like a bicycle you get on it once and ride, you never forget how to ride.
On the way back to the Z1 Rico called Rusty to make sure everything was okay with him.
Yes, babes I am doing fine in fact we're both Madison and I are okay and as far as the future baby daddy, it will be a while before he ever thinks about sticking his business anywhere.
Rusty you didn't hurt him too bad, did you?
Nothing that won't heal or can't be straightened up, but he's definitely marked as property of the Z1.
I don't think I want to ask you what that means but just to let you know, father is doing okay with everything. Harvey is at home and resting comfortably. And if I didn't tell you enough before Rusty Numen, I am so glad that you came into my life and I said yes when you asked me to be your spouse.
Love you too babes, we're get into an area where the reception is not so great but expect us in about two hours.
Rico sat beside his father, we will get through this as a family, I may not be here all the time because Rusty and I have a life at the ocean front. But all you have to do is call and one of us will get here as soon as we can. For the next two months get used to being around a cranky slightly bloated Genmen. And once I deliver, you get to repeat it with Harvey.
I'll let you know the father was a human that got out of control, he was tall and he was very big. I have seen a photograph of him, he had bright blonde hair and blue eyes. He was very appealing to the eyes so there's no doubt Harvey's baby will be beautiful just like his dad and his father also.
There's something you don't know father, and I'm not for sure yet so I really shouldn't say thing but you know me I can't keep my mouth shut when it's important, Harvey had two different burns and until we can confirm that with Dr., we might very well be looking at twins.
Granddad and grandfather need to know about Harvey's condition. Every bit of the support that he can get will help him. Benton has no idea what happened, we need to be truthful with him so that he can be protected when his time comes for transition. You know that's going to be within 8 to 9 months.
I forgot about him and his time getting close. Please call your grandparents and have them over, we need the family gathered here at the house. Grandfather Jarvis also needs to be here, I will try to contact Zion via conference video. The more support Harvey has the better he will do.
Rusty will be here within two hours, he had to go take care of some business off the ranch. I don't know how it went other than it was handled.
A very upset farm manager called into the Z1 ranch, one of his staff members had been assaulted by someone from Z1, he wanted answers. Tim passed the phone to Zach who put it on speaker.
You're speaking to Zachariah Spinelli how can I help you, Mr. Zach this is Clint at the silver dollar ranch we had a problem earlier while I was off the ranch. It seems that two of your residents from the Z1 showed up here and assaulted one of the humans living here. Marked him up pretty bad too, they had to put back in three teeth, straighten his broken nose and his cracked cheekbone will have to heal.
But the bad one that did all of the damage, kicked him in the nuts and then put a Z1 brand on his right butt cheek.
Zach almost blew coffee everywhere; he's got what, where?
On his right butt cheek, he was branded by a hot electric Brander, it now reads "Property of the Z1 Ranch".
Clint let me get this straight and if you don't mind take me a picture and send it to me, I have to see this, you're saying that someone from my ranch came down there busted up one of your human staff members and then branded him.
Yes, sir I am, plus he put some kind of metallic black bracelet on his right wrist. Told him that it would alert the Z1 if he left the silver dollar ranch and would hit him with a paralytic injection. And if he didn't get an antidote, he would be one dead bitch.
Clint let me check into this bracelet thing, the only thing I know is in the archives that was used on the slave ship. I'm very aware of the device that you're talking about and it does contain a paralytic injection should it be set off. We don't use those on the Z1. Now in punishment phase for atrocities against a person the Council has used those in the past but they were only meant for Genmen. I need to check into it but go ahead and send me that photo if you don't mind.
Yes Mr. Zach I appreciate your help in this matter in fact I'll just send you a video that way you get a good look at the young man. I'll talk to you later when you call back sir.
Zach plugged his phone into the overhead monitor and when the video came through, he pushed play. The guy was in rough shape, his face was bruised, his cheek was bruised, nose was taped after the first visual portion was through, the young man dropped his drawers and Clint pulled back the dressing. There for everyone to see he had been branded with the Z1's property logo.
Zach and Tim roared out in laughter. Zach froze the frame and called for Ben to come in and look at it. Ben gasped when he saw what Rusty had done to the young man's buttocks. There was no doubt he would have to explain that forever.
Zach and Tim were still laughing and Ben smiled at the young man's predicament that he brought upon himself.
Ben what do you want to do about this one, I know how you say we are supposed to be better than this and we need to rise above what our ancestors did. How are you going to handle Rusty?
Congratulate him for defending his family, and you tell Clint exactly what happened and why it happened, if anyone ever touches one of the members of our trips abroad again this is just a sampling of what the Z1 does. Next time I'll personally escort one of them to the back 40.
Hold that thought Zachariah, get Clint on the video monitor and I will tell him myself. He doesn't want to get an attitude with me or I'll bounce his ass off that ranch.
Zach called the silver dollar ranch and told the operator to put plant on the video monitor someone wanted to inform him what was going on.
Clint came onto the monitor, yes Mr. Zach I hope you have an answer for me because I'm not pleased.
Ben stepped into the monitor and Zach exited, Clint I don't give a damn if you are happy or not. You need to ask that sorry piece of shit that you are defending what in the hell he did to deserve the treatment he got.
No let me tell you, our transit was recently through there with a group of young Genmen and students learning about the Z1 and all of the farms and ranches that they support. The transit broke down on your location and I apologize for that, it took three days to repair it. We have a young Genmen that went through hell on your ranch and it was dealt by the young man that you are defending. When someone says no it means no, when someone tells you stop you stop. You don't take what you want just because you want it. The young man is here back at home with his family, and less than nine months he will deliver his first child fathered by that piece of trash that you are defending.
There were two members of the Z1 that visited your ranch, one was Zach's personal driver, the other one that dealt out the punishment was the brother-in-law to the young man who your staff member assaulted and left with child. The bracelet will stay on, I gave it to him to install it. One third of his pay will be deducted and sent to the young man that he forced himself upon until the child is born.
He will be here for the birth of the child and bonding, then he will not be allowed to see the child until the child transitions and asks to meet his father. He will support the child until the child reaches transition age and if he decides to go to university and he will pay 100% of the education of this child under the new Genmen protection laws. If he's a real chicken shit, he can walk off the silver dollar but he won't live because I'll be damned if I will send the antidote. You make sure that sick son of a bitching Bastard understands this, he pissed off the wrong fucking Genmen now.
I'm through talking, you can talk to Zachariah, but you tell that little muther Fucker this, you make a father mad and it's okay you piss off a dad and you have royally fucked up for life.
Clint had a new demeanor, yes Mr. Ben I am so sorry I was unaware of any of this. I took a human's word over anyone else's. It will not happen again.
Clint, I think you need to have a general meeting with your staff and all of the residents of the silver dollar ranch. This will never be allowed to happen.
Clint I'm going to hang up with you now, go take care of the silver dollar ranch. And expect a visit from the Spinelli family.
Yes sir Mr. Zach, we will have the books ready for you and you will have a complete tour of the entire facility. I just hope that we can pass your requirements sir. Chip has been demoted and he will learn what it's like to be at the bottom of the heap.
Zach looked at Ben, I'm so glad that I have you on my corner. Our children are blessed to have you as their dad.
Ben smiled, I'm going to Franklin's home to join his family and offer any kind of assistance that is needed, I do believe the Spinelli family needs to shoulder the responsibility.
We will both go; Harvey needs to know that he's not in this alone. He has a much bigger family than what he realizes. Tim when you get through, pickup Mason and stop by Franklin's place. Have Mason whip up a dish to carry over for the family.
I'll stop by the kitchen before we go Zach, I want to carry some pastries and I'll see if Rocco has anything ready.
Ben told Rocco what it happened and Rocco had tears in his eyes, memories always hurt the most. Mr. Ben if you will give me a little bit, I will bring fresh pastries over if it is all right that I bring them from the main kitchen. I know Harvey likes chocolate pies so I'll make him a fresh one.
Take your time Rocco, I know it's hard on you, I know about your past from your personal file. If it's too much just call and I'll send Tim out to pick them up.
I'm fine Mr. Ben, I might even be able to help Harvey. I can share with him what I went through and maybe it will help him overcome. I had no one to look after me or make me understand why it happened. He has a great support system in his family, Mr. Franklin will do good for his son. But I need to get started now, so I will see you shortly.
Okay, I will send someone to assist you in getting the items to Franklin's residence.
Zach and Ben left the main house and went through the flower garden were Ben cut some fresh roses for Harvey. When they arrived, there was a crowd just with Max and Jericho's family helping support Franklin and his boys. The yard was full, there were tables set on the lawn and chairs everywhere.
With all of the confusion Harvey had forgot to ask about his dad. He didn't see him and no one said anything about him. Rico where is dad at?
Rico couldn't lie to his brother he didn't need that, so he reached into his pocket and removed the letter that Micki had left on Max's door before he left.
Rico handed it to his brother and let him read it.
Harvey responded after he read the letter. Well, I guess if you can't support your children and who they choose as their partners in life then you have no place in their life at all. Benton will be a little disappointed, but dad was always after him. Poor boy couldn't do nothing right to please him. I don't see that we need to bother him at this time. When he asks then we will sit down with him and let him read the letter.
Rico was so glad to see Rusty walk through the gates that he broke down in tears. I was so worried about you and Madison. I didn't know if you were going to be okay.
Babes, you know I am always going to be here for you, to take care you and this baby. You and this family are my top priority, any man would do what he has to. To protect his loved ones.
Rusty looked over at Harvey, I brought you few new photographs for your collection. There were only two photographs that Rusty showed Harvey, the first one was a banged-up Chip missing a few teeth and with the bloody nose. Before he showed him the second one, he told this was the one he was most proud of it showed Chip with his pants pulled down bearing his right ass cheek which was branded with "Property of the Z1 Ranch".
Harvey couldn't stop laughing at the photograph and he thanked Rusty for what he had done to defend his honor.
Not a problem little bro, we are family we take care of our own. Attack one of us, attack all of us.
Harvey was actually in a good mood when Rocco showed up with his most favorite dessert of all time, chocolate pie. And not just a plain but one that had a meringue topping with chocolate sprinkles.
Harvey hugged his benefactors' neck, he whispered into his ear. If you play your cards right father is available now.
Rocco turned red in the face, thank you very much Harvey for the information. I brought desserts for quite a few but I don't know if I have enough, I didn't know that there would be this big of a crowd.
Franklin walked up to Rocco and hugged him and thanked him for what he had done for his son. Come sit with the family, you need to get to know everybody.
Rocco was invited into the family with open arms, everyone kept complementing him on the excellent desserts and pastries that he had brought, several family members were asking for lessons. Rocco looked at Franklin and smiled.
Max walked up to his son and stood beside him, I know some may think that it would be crude, but let's face it you were only together for the boys. Here in front of you is a fine man, he's liked by the family without a doubt and would be welcomed. What happens at work happens at work, what happens at home stays at home. Go talk to him, I can tell by the boy's expressions, they have no problem with Rocco being here.
Franklin looked back toward his dad, he motioned for him to go on. Franklin walked over to Rocco and asked if they could speak in private.
Rocco was feared that he had somehow made a mistake by bringing the pastries and the desserts.
I'm very sorry if I overstepped my bounds as a coworker, but with my history I can relate to what happened to Harvey. The only thing was I didn't have anyone to support me, when I was at six months, I lost my child. I was alone and scared, if I could spare one young man what I suffered through I figured I might as well try.
Franklin walked up to Rocco and wipe away his tears, he then took Rocco's face in his hands and kissed him in a very passionate embrace.
Benton walked into the room as they were kissing and turned around and left as quickly as possible. He went directly to Rico and told him what he saw.
You need to sit; a lot has taken place since you left for the trip. Dad moved out and left Z1. He placed this letter on grandfather's door and you need to read it, with the baby that I carry being half human he could not permit that in his home or in his family. He gave father a choice either him or his children and grandchildren but he could not have both if we crossed with anything but purebloods.
Benton thought about it for a minute, I know he is my dad and I have to respect him for that, but you do not tell a Genmen Father to choose a mate or his children and grandchildren because you will lose every time. Ever since he saw me kiss one of the young humans in my class he was on my ass. Made me scrub my mouth till my teeth bled. I didn't love him but I didn't hate him. I just couldn't stand him around; father has always told us to be who we are and to be proud of who we are, dad on the other hand hated everything that father taught us. I can live with his decision to leave we just need to get father to hook up with Rocco, that will be great.
Benton do not read too much into anything, Rocco was being polite and helping out a coworker, you know how father feels about people getting involved in the job.
You talking about the same father that's lip locked in there in the other room with Rocco. I wouldn't disturb them if I were you, father is making up for lost time.
Rico smiled and covered his mouth so no one could see him grinning like a Cheshire cat.
Have you seen father; he seems to have disappeared I hope all is not too much for him Asked Harvey?
Rico leaned over and whispered into Harvey's ear about what their little brother had seen in the other room.
Damn do you know what this means, I get chocolate pie all the time. Or at least as often as he makes it. The three boys were very happy for their father.
Everything wound down, slowly people drifted away and went to their own homes. Ben decided that it was time that him and Zach went home to see if Kris had torn down the place yet. They would've brought him but he didn't want to go anywhere because he was playing with his toys one of the house staff volunteered to play victim.
Rocco bid the boys farewell for the evening; Franklin walked into the front gate like a gentleman should. After a very passionate embrace and kiss Rocco went home.
Franklin entered the door of his home and had to face the music of his three sons. I own nobody an explanation, if you have questions then keep them to yourself at this time. Now I'm tired and I've got a hard day at work tomorrow so I am going to bed after a good shower.
After their father closed his bedroom door all three boys started snickering. Rusty commented; now you three do not get too big for your britches, he can still whip your asses pregnant are not.
Oh, I didn't tell anybody remarked Harvey; Mr. Ben wants me to work in receiving Department of the farm section. All I have to do is take the count from the employee that is bringing the product in an entry it into the database. I will have a brand-new very comfortable chair so that I am not on my feet. I will not lift any tray of vegetables or boxes of fruit. There will be someone else there to that, I only enter data.
Well looks like somebody got him a very cushy job courtesy of Mr. Ben. Rico then busted out laughing. I'm proud for you, now please try to do good and set a good example for everyone else. I know how big of a bitch you can be when you don't get your way or you get your precious little hands and fingers dirty.
Can I help that I like to stay clean, nobody has to wallow in the filth like a pig?
Harvey, some of the men coming out of the field will have dirt on them because they dig the vegetables by hand, not by equipment here on the Z1. Do not confuse physical labor and a little dirt on someone is that they are unclean with filth.
You would think according to you I don't know how to talk to people, you're not the only one that can speak dear brother.
Harvey I'm just trying to be nice and tell you to think before you speak, sometimes it can mean everything. When I first met Rusty it did not go well. I was rude and indignant and just a really general asshole toward him.
But Tom, he pulled me aside and explained a few things about life and how people differ especially humans and Genmen working side-by-side.
Harvey, I have to agree with your brother, we butted heads right away and it wasn't all a bed of roses there for a while. But when he had a low spot in his life, we buried the hatchet and I helped him get through the rough spots. I had no idea that we would end up together married much less having a child.
Okay you two I hear you talking, I will be nice to the nasty people when they come in from the field, but they better not get dirt on the damn floor or they'll be sweeping it up.
Rico just shook his head stood up and announced he was going to bed. I will see everyone in the morning, Rusty if you're coming to bed you need to get a move on it. You know how I don't like someone flipping and flopping around in the bed all night so I cannot get comfortable.
Rusty smiled; okay I'm on My Way, Harvey take note of what was said. Benton good luck in house full of pregnant Genmen.
The first couple of days for Harvey were okay, he was becoming more relaxed around the different people that came in from the fields. For the most part they were cordial toward each other but there was one of them that Harvey could not stand.
Every day Delbert Parks would come in and flop a flat of specialty vegetables on the counter. Any dirt that was on the crate or on vegetables themselves ended up on the counter. Harvey had a hard time reading the figures that were written, a first year Genmen child could write better this dude.
And were not even going to talk about his language barrier. Hell, what language he usually grunted or groaned and pointed at whatever he was doing.
By the end of the first week Harvey had put up with all that he was going to put up with next time that man came in, he was going to get a piece of Harvey's mind.
Delbert came in with a double stack of trays filled with wrangle berries. He flopped them on the counter and a few rolled off the top tray and hit the hard surface and burst. Delbert turned without saying anything and walked off suddenly he heard a crash behind him.
He turned to look and saw both trays of wrangle berries turned upside down and laying on the floor in front of the counter. In a panic he ran to the trays and began to go through the berries to see if any could be salvaged.
Who the hell are you to push one of the most expensive products we have on the ranch off the counter onto the floors, are you a special kind of stupid or what? I just hope I can save some.
Harvey came out behind the counter and Delbert looked up at him. Excuse you, I don't put trash anywhere but, in the trashcan, every day you come in and flop the trays down, everywhere merchandise rolls off and ends up anywhere but where it's supposed to be. Your filthy, the product is filthy and you just generally disgusting to me. And about why they're on the floor, I'll tell you why they're on the floor, because nastiness does not belong on my counter. You should be cleaning the product, rinsing it off and drying it before bringing it in from the fields.
Delbert stood up and intently looked at Harvey, these did not come out of the Z1's fields these came out of my own plot that I have. I gave these to the Z1 to help make specialty orders even more special. The reason they are not rinsed and cleaned is that that must be done immediately prior to being served are they will mold within an hour. So, you can take your pre-judgmental attitude about filth and stick it up your, never mind.
Delbert turned and walked away leaving the mass of wrangle berries all over the receiving room floor.
Ben witnessed everything, he walked up to Harvey and looked at him directly. Young man; your new and you do not know the procedures. Obviously, you have not read your employees handbook on different types of fruits and vegetables and what it takes to process them. I hope you realize how much money was wasted here on the floor of the receiving room. You will clean them up, I don't care that you are pregnant you will clean this mess up. And you owe Delbert an apology, and you better make it a good one.
Ben turned around and walked away leaving Harvey standing there with a horrible mess all over the receiving floor. As he left out the door he announced, his mess he cleans up, anyone helps I'm docking your pay for the damage.
Harvey stood there in shock, was Mr. Ben having a bad day. He had never spoken to him like that before.
One of the other Genmen working in the receiving area spoke up, we all put up with Delbert and his eccentric ways. He brings us stuff that the Z1 has never been able to produce before. He works his plot of land and brings his labor of love here. He only brings us the best and the rest of it he passes out to the Genmen families that need extra help. If a child is sick, he knows cures that rival the medical community. He hasn't been here all that long maybe 1 year but he cares for others. He gets on his hands and knees and plants every single seedling by hand; he nurtures them and pampers them like it is a child. You would do good to make up with him, you might not ever know when you will need his friendship.
Excuse you; I do not need Mr. Nasty's anything. You would think he could at least wash his hands before he comes in to this receiving area. And what about those clothes, doesn't look like they've seen the washer in a long time.
Okay you're going to have to learn the hard way, looks like you are just about as hardheaded as Delbert is, but at least he's nice, you're just mean.
Harvey picked up the mess, he had to wash the floor to get the stain off of it and rinsed off the two trays that the wrangle berries once were contained on. He was still pissed off when Delbert returned so that he could retrieve the trays. Neither one said anything to the other, they both growled and went their separate ways.
The lunch whistle went off and everyone gathered their lunch pails and went to the eating hall. Delbert was enjoying a sandwich when Harvey walked in and took a seat across the room.
I can't believe that, he didn't even wash his hands before he ate lunch. Thought it makes me nauseous. Harvey was eating his baked Starbird Alfredo that Rico had made the night before. He did mind eating leftovers as long as they were good to start with, when he looked up and saw Delbert standing in front of him.
I'm sorry that we got off at the wrong foot, my name is Delbert. You're right, I am dirty because I work in the dirt to create new sub species of plants that are viable here on the Z1. Besides a little dirt never heard anyone, it keeps your immune system up especially if you're human, they need all the help they can get.
You've already ruined my morning do you have to ruin my lunch also? And he just stared at Delbert.
Mr. Ben said I should be nice to you and give you a second chance, you just had it and you're still a nasty person. If I did not have to bring my vegetables into your station I would not. Let's just agree to disagree and get along as far as the job is. Delbert turned around and walked off.
Ben cleared his throat, Harvey is that what you call an apology, the man came to you and tried to be cordial to you but you were still rude and disrespectful. I thought you were a lot like your father, but I guess you were marred by your dad's attitude. You have got a lot of growing up to do young man. Ben walked away leaving Harvey sitting there with egg on his face.
Ben was walking across the courtyard when he was approached by Delbert. Mr. Ben, I know that my vegetables go to station number two. But as long as the young man with the attitude is stationed there, I don't think we will be getting much done.
Delbert; have a seat let's talk for a minute please.
Yes sir Mr. Ben how can I help you sir?
Delbert the young man that you had the problem with this morning his name is Harvey, he's young and he has to learn. He's learning about life the hard way, and I'm not saying his attitude makes it any easier but there's a lot going on. I don't know if you noticed are not that he is carrying. It wasn't planned it wasn't expected but something happened in his life and it left him carrying hybrid twins.
That young man is expecting hybrid twin's sir?
Yes, unfortunately that's true. The last education trip he was part of it, the transit broke down at one of the ranches and they had spent three days there. The end of the second day they gave a big party in their honor, but one of the inhabitants as I will not refer to that one as a resident of anywhere, had intentions that were not noble.
He brought drinks over and Harvey's was spiked, he found himself outside and then he found himself in a room, and before he knew it, he was flat on his back legs in the air and the other man on top and deep inside of him. After it was all through, he was generously kicked out of the room but not before he was impregnated by a human resident.
He was embarrassed about what happened but totally clueless about what really took place. Two weeks later he found himself sick and after another week the chaperones called and alerted us to impossible illness and we had them come home early.
His family was notified, he was tested and found to be carrying. Since then, he found out it's twins and his mind's not what it should be. You see from going with this Delbert?
Yes sir, my general appearance can be a lot for someone to take especially if they're in a family way. Genmen get into the nesting phase where everything around them must be spotless. I hear you loud and clear and tomorrow I will look and smell a lot different.
Thank you very much Delbert, all we can do is try. Maybe Harvey will actually be a little accommodating but I don't know, he is still going through a lot.
August Jessup had a semi-formal meeting with Zahara at Constantine's. The two spoke they got along together. Nothing had been written in stone but yet nothing had been made off-limits, they both agreed to try again now that they knew the expectations of each other. Zahara was not leaving the Z1 or her brothers and August would not leave his son nor his grandson Augustus.
The tour was winding down and Claxon informed his father that he would be moving to the Z1 so that he and Zion could be together. They wished for Augustus to join them at the ranch. The boys had not told anyone that they had secretly wed. Madam had agreed to keep their secret but she would not let them go on forever with the charade.
Zion called Mr. Zach and asked him for a two-bedroom home, he did not want next to his family because he wanted privacy. He explained to Mr. Zach that he and Claxon would share the home along with Augustus, but to please not tell his family anything. The last thing he wanted was interference from anyone who thought they knew better for him and his life.
Zach agreed on one condition he at least spoke to his grandfather Jarvis about what was going on in his life. What they agreed to or disagreed with was between them. Zion agreed to the conditions and would speak to grandfather Jarvis about what was going on.
The next morning when Delbert came into the processing center no one really recognized him. His clothes were clean, his hair had been trimmed and was neatly combed and most importantly his body was spotless of any dirt. He walked up to Harvey's station and gently set the containers found that he had as the daily offering.
Harvey looked up and didn't pay any mind at all to the employee he thanked the gentleman for the vegetables, took the envelope with the figures inside and input the data into the database.
Delbert turned and walked away without any interaction.
The coworker beside Harvey was astounded, the man was a hunk. If Harvey wasn't going to latch onto that, first chance he got he damned sure would mate or no mate.
Harvey did you see who that was?
Not really, I wasn't paying attention, he was nice looking but I'm not looking.
That was Mr. Nastiness himself, you know the one that you have a problem being around.
Couldn't have been him not whatsoever, number one it was bathed, it was dressed in clean close and it smelled nice, nasty smells rank and nastier.
Quick Pull his ticket back out of the trash and see who signed that.
Harvey reached down into the trashcan and retrieved the slip of paper, and there in plain sight was the name Delbert. Oh crap, I can't believe that that was nasty thing. I didn't think he owned a bar of soap much less any clean clothing.
Hurry, take that piece of paper back out to him and make any excuse to ask a question about it. Ain't no time like the present, and he is worth chasing down just to get another look.
Harvey thought about it for about 2 milliseconds, and out the door he went. When he finally caught up with Delbert he was almost out of breath. Excuse me I think I made a mistake when I was inputting the data into my terminal can you verify these figures on your paper, please sir?
Delbert turned around and saw Harvey and looked at him from head to toe realizing that the young Genmen was carrying. You shouldn't have had to run after me, my numbers on the ticket you could've called. And you in a family way, you have to be more careful.
That's okay I'm fine I'm just a little out of breath, your name is Delbert correct?
Yes, it is the same name I've been using for the last three or four weeks coming into your counter.
About that I am so sorry, I owe you an apology I was rude and insensitive. I was raised better than that but after all that's taken place recently, I seem to snap at people for nothing. I have to get used to these damn Genmen hormone. Would you please accept my apology?
There's nothing to apologize for, you just said what everybody else was thinking and that was because of your hormones. I was rude by throwing the vegetables and fruits on the counter, some I could have cleaned but I just didn't feel that I had to. And as far as my clothing and my personal being not being clean that was inexcusable.
I guess it just took the right person to call me down and wake me up so that I realized I had let things go too far.
Delbert if you don't think I'm being forward, maybe we could get a malted sometime. I'll give you my private number that way I can meet you at the transit stop and we can go into town. But all these loose tongues around here at gossip Central it's at all-time high.
That's very nice Harvey, I haven't stepped out with anyone since I've been on the Z1. When you lose your heart, you just don't feel that you're worth it anymore.
Oh, you are worth it, and a whole lot more. Whoever broke your heart should be ashamed of themselves, because I see a very handsome gentleman standing in front of me. So, what do you think 6:30 tonight, we will ride the transit? Now I'm going to warn you I eat a lot more than I used to since I'm carrying, but don't worry I have my own funds.
That's perfect Harvey, I'll meet you at the transit stop at 6:30 PM and I will be cleaned from head to toe our date. Delbert turned and walked away.
Harvey was on cloud nine and terrified the same time. He just asked someone out on a date, his first date and he asked the other party. He returned to the counter at the processing area and went back to doing his job.
Okay, spill it what the hell happened to you and Mr. dreamboat?
Nothing, but if you tell anybody that 6:30 I have a date, they won't find your body.
Don't worry my lips are sealed, but I want Details, lots of details, juicy steamy details. If you kiss him, I want to know, is he, for example is he a sloppy kisser or a dry kisser, does he use his tongue and how he holds you tight. Is he strong and as far as his muscles, how they feel up underneath that shirt?
You are full of questions Lonnie; don't you and your mate have any life at all?
Yup, the typical Genmen roll over and give me some vent I'm horny. He got his, roll off of me and go to sleep. My man needs instructions on how to make love properly. He is a good man, he takes care of me and the three kids, but it's up on top Wham Bam your knocked up and I'm off, what's for supper.
You have three children?
Yes, and once a year he gets horny and he jumps me when I'm cycling, which should be next week probably. I've tried to get him to go to the conception center so we could have a night of romance. Mr. boring, he's not worried as long as he gets his wet, he could care less what I need.
Shoot, sounds like one time you should tell him to put out and carry. Maybe if he got his vent stretched a little bit, he might change his attitude?
Sounds good to me, before I met Scott, I knocked up a couple Genmen that wanted my genetics. Then I carried for him and he stayed around. It would be funny to see him waddling down the hallway with swollen feet and a hurting back for a change.
That sounds good to me too but, I have to get back to work so I can meet Mr. Damn Good looking for a malted and maybe a burger with fries and a side order of everything on the menu.
Both of them laughed.
