Twenty Six
I sat back, my stomach full from pancakes, eggs, toast, and fruit. A fuzzy feeling fell over me, taking a moment to relax, and think about Aunty Lily. The mood was still there, floating along my dark spirit. I often glanced at her at the table. She ignored me while she nibbled on some fruit. Her eyes trembled a few times, fighting the urge to return my gaze. Our new secret made our connection that much more tantalizing.
The rest of the family sat on either side of me at the long table. I sat at the end, shifting my gaze to everyone seated. My mother was on my right, happily speaking with Violet. It was odd to see my Aunt Violet was also the same size and height as when she was alive. No one seemed to notice, or care, as far as I could see. Lily sat across from them, while my cousins were a little further down, talking about some of the videos they posted to the private server.
Our game excited them. It excited me as well. The memories of running, and fighting, fell to the background. We were enjoying our bonding time, and I looked forward to more of it.
I continued to feel like I was light as a feather, but my hunger for more began to grow. It was nice to have small lewd trysts, but I wanted deeper, long-lasting sessions. I wanted to do things that would make me question myself. It was a vicious cycle, one I enjoyed spending time in. What good was power, if you never used it? My mind began to work, wondering who else I would enjoy spending time with.
My mother stood up and tapped a fork against a glass. Everyone stopped talking, and turned their attention to her, including me. I was eager to hear what she had to say. She was being very mysterious.
"I wanted your attention for a moment," my mother smiled brightly, but her eyes still held a hint of madness. "I must make a small journey. There is an errand I wish to run, but it may take a few days to complete."
I listened intently, wondering where she needed to go.
My mother looked at me with warm eyes. "I wish I could tell you why, or where I was going, but it must remain a secret for now. All I can say, this journey is for the family's best interests."
I eyed her, wondering what she was playing at.
She turned her attention back to everyone at the table. "That said, Aunt Lily will be accompanying me on this errand."
Lily looked up at her sister with questioning eyes.
My mother continued, "Since we are taking a holiday, I don't wish for Gerald to be taxed during our rest. That is why, while Lily and I are gone, Beth will be in charge."
Everyone turned their attention to my sister. Beth had a small smile, but her eyes shined with knowing power. Dana blinked at her sister. Theo simply nodded. Aunty Violet smiled and nodded.
"Beth will be the only person allowed to contact me. As I said, we should only be a few days. When we return, I will assume my duties once again."
My mother turned to me with understanding eyes. "Gerald, my son, please take this time to rest, and enjoy yourself. We need you to be rested and strong as we continue our dark crusade."
I simply nodded. I could have asked where she was going, but that would ruin the surprise.
"Lily and I will leave within thirty minutes. After that, we will see you in a few days," my mother finished and sat down.
Dana nodded before she spoke up.
"I have to go into Dublin tonight. I am seeing a friend about a request. I will stay at a hotel and return in the morning."
"Someone should go with you," Aunty Lily said.
Dana smiled at her mother. "Harold can drive and protect me."
"We could all go with you?" I brought it up.
My cousin kept her smile. "No need. It's going to be a boring errand, not worth the time. As Aunty Rose said, you should stay and rest. I will be back with some things to help us enjoy our time at the castle."
I chuckled, knowing she was going out to shop, and not for normal items.
My mother looked at Lily. "Let's get ready to go. I would very much like to return as soon as possible."
Lily nodded and rose to her feet.
Part of me wondered if this was some odd way for my mother to interrogate her sister. Since we just came up with our game this morning, I couldn't see how she would suspect just yet. Lurid thoughts filled my mind, making love to Aunty Lily and calling her "Mother," while my real mother watched. If things escalated, that would be a moment to enjoy for all of us.
My mother and Aunty Lily each gave me a quick kiss on the cheek before they left. Soon, Dana also said her goodbyes before leaving. I caught Beth looking at me with hungry eyes, before she stood up and left. Violet also left. When I was finished with my meal, I stood up to leave, when Theo spoke up.
"Gerald, can we speak on something?" he said with a shy tone.
"Of course. We can talk any time," I smiled.
Theo got up from his chair, walked over, and sat down in my mother's chair. He leaned in, while glancing over his shoulder, ensuring no one was walking in. When he turned his eyes back to me, a mischievous gleam filled them.
"You know my mother and Dana enjoy torturing me some nights."
I nodded. "I've seen the video. It looked like you were all having fun."
Theo grinned and looked away. "As fun as it is, I wish to turn the tables, as it were. My mother has confided in me that she misses being dominated, and treated like an object, no matter how much I fuck her. She just doesn't see me in that way, but she sees you like that."
I smirked. "You want us to dominate her."
Theo nodded as he shifted his gaze back to my eyes. "I do, but I want to do something different. I spoke with Beth, and she is interested in joining this session, if you agree to it. She and I talked, and she says she wants to be the object of our desires.
"When we talked it out. You and I would use her as we wish, while my mother was forced to watch. She would be tied down, or, you can use your gifts to force her to sit and watch us as we have our way with Beth. Knowing her, she would be tortured if we had fun and she couldn't join us, at least, not right away. I even came up with a phrase she would have to say to surrender to us, but even if she said it, we would still decide when she could crawl to us."
I couldn't hide my smile. My perverted cousin was ready to teach his mother another lesson. A lesson she would most likely enjoy. But I didn't want to just be a participant.
"This sounds fun, but I want do more than just teach her a lesson."
"How so?"
A wicked gleam filled my eyes. "I want us to love her how she wants to be loved. She likes being treated like an object, as long as we show her attention. You have the ability to shapeshift. I don't see why we shouldn't use it to take things further."
Theo's eyes widened a hair, before his own inner demons licked their lips.
