Chapter 160: Late
Your crown has been bought and paid for. Put it on your head and wear it. – Dr. Maya Angelou
Neo’s phone rang lighting up a small area in the darkened room. Carefully disentangling himself from Jolene, he reached for the offending device on the bedside table. Reese’s name flashed across the screen, and he clicked the green button.“Yeah.” He whispered.“I wake you up?” Reese laughed.“Not all of us are vampires.” Neo informed his quietly.“Yeah, yeah.” The other man laughed. “You do realize that it’s after ten in the morning.”“It is not.”After they had cuddled in the purple and black room at the club, he had put them in a shower and then they went and ate lunch. Afterwards, they went back to the big house. He checked in with Shelby, her office was now set up here and she enjoyed being around the guys again.The warehouse was a total loss for the building. But the safe rooms and underground firing range were both still standing. The plan was to tur

Life doesn’t get more real than having a newborn at home. - Eric ChurchJaxon walked into the nursery and found Bunny standing next to the crib looking down at their sweet little mermaid. Ariel was laying on her back with the blanket pulled up around her chest. Her short curly hair was creating a small black crown around her milk chocolate skin. Gentle sucking motions on her lips and the occasional twitch of a limb was the only movement from the sleeping baby.Wrapping his arms around Bunny, Jaxon pulled her into a gentle hug. “What are you thinking?”“I feel guilty.” Bunny admitted as tears pooled in her eyes.“You shouldn’t.” he assured her as he kissed her neck. “We talked about this. It’s best for her. It’s best for you.”“I know. But what if she needs me?”“Bunny, if anything happens, the daycare will call you. They’re professionals.”She scoffed. “I worked at a daycare in college. Don’t give me that shit.”“And we checked out every daycare in to

Fifth General Order of the Navy: To quit my post only when properly relievedIt had been tradition for as long as Dean could remember. And whenever her mom had been gone, it had been Reese who did it. But now, her mom was gone forever. And Reese had a wife and babies. And JD was gone.Looking at the ring on her finger, she smiled through her silent tears. He had promised to come home to her. Had said that this was only temporary. That he would always come back to her.Mary had made the same promises.Dean knew how those promises meant nothing to the universe. It didn’t care about teenage girls who just wanted to know that she was loved.Her body shook with a silent sob and Monster moved closer to her and nuzzled her with his snout. She wrapped an arm around his body and held him close.Lost in her own thoughts and tears, she did not hear the bedroom door open. She was only vaguely aware of the bed dipping behind her as a large body lay down behind her. A lou

If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you. – Zig ZiglarWalking through the halls that JD had walked through for all four of his high school years was conflicting for Dean. There was the comfort of being surrounded by those who knew him. And annoyance at constantly being asked how he was, where he was, what he was doing.Boot camp.Boot camp.Boot camp.Seriously, didn’t any of these people watch any military movies? The montage of videos for the boot camp scenes never showed the recruits traipsing through a field of wildflowers with the drill sergeant riding a rainbow and glitter farting unicorn. The image conjured in her head had her snickering in English. Maybe that would be her answer to the next person who asked what JD was doing.Then as she listed to the teacher go over the reading list, she found herself wondering, what did the Navy call their drill sergeants? She was certain that they we

It’s hard to see things when you are too close. Take a step back and look. – Bob RossReese turned and looked at the mural that Dean had painted on the wall behind his desk. For the past month, he had been trying to find the zombie. He had been nose to wall over just about every inch of the wall. Still, he could find nothing.Grabbing his phone he looked to see if she had responded to his text.You don’t have to tell me where the zombie is, but give me a hntHint. Hnt should have been hintThere still was no response.“Teenagers.” He complained out loud.“Give them an inch and they swim all over the ocean.” Gigi said from the doorway.“Okay, Sebastian.” He chuckled as he turned around to face her.She laughed as she propped herself against the doorframe. “That was my mom’s favorite quote for the longest time. And if you asked her, she had teenagers for the longest time.”“I just realized; I’m going to be seventy when these three will graduate

Sixth General Order of the Navy – To receive, obey and pass on to the sentry who relieves me, all orders from the Commanding Officer, Command Duty Officer, Officer of the Deck and Officers and Petty Officers of the Watch only.Dean sat in the window seat of the private plane watching the land below them grow further and further away. She smiled as she thought about when she and her mom flew to Washington D.C. Her mom had pointed at the baggage handlers.“Those guys are the most important members of the crew.”“Why?” Dean had asked, expecting some philosophical explanation since her mom was notorious for making sure that her daughter knew that fancy titles did not mean that the person was more important than anyone else.“They make sure the pilot has clean underwear.”Laughter bubbled up, even now as grief washed over her. Reaching down, she gently touched her bracelet flipping open the heart. Her mom smiled at her from the small picture. Swiping at her tears, she

Seventh General Order of the Navy – To talk to no one except in the line of dutyThe private plane landed at O’Hare airport early Tuesday afternoon. They all checked into the hotel suites that Reese had reserved. He pointedly looked at his daughter as he handed over her key card.“This is not a floor party.”She chuckled as she took the piece of plastic from her dad and grabbed her fiancé by the hand. “I promise not to have any water balloon fights if Dean promises not to set up any glitter bombs.”“O, you can check.” Dean said handing over her suitcase and carryon bag. “I did not bring anything to do glitter bombs.” “I believe you.” He told the teen. And he did believe her. For the most part. Mainly because she had been too nervous before they left to even think about glitter bombs.To be perfectly honest, he would not be surprised if she had forgotten some of the bare basics.A few hours later, Dean knocked on the door to Helen and Reese’s suite.“
Mermaid Thighs Chapter 167: Around Chicago
Eighth General Order of the Navy – To give the alarm in case of fire or disorderWednesday was spent sightseeing around Chicago and the lake. The wind was cold and blustery. There was a reason why this was the Windy City, and she showed the visitors exactly why. There were plenty of things to do out of the wind and everyone used the babies as an excuse to stay inside. After a hearty breakfast at the hotel restaurant, the large group took several vans to the Field Museum. Dean had expressed an interest in seeing the art museum, but they were closed on Wednesdays. Instead, Reese bought them tickets for Friday so that JD could join them.They were all amazed at the size of the dinosaur skeletons and other fossils. Entertained by the 3D movies and other exhibits. They took a break and ate at one of the museums’ cafés and then went to the neighboring aquarium. As always, even so far away from home, a few of Neo's guards followed at a distance, looking like a group of fr

But after everything had settled down and Dean thought about it, she really wanted to find the old biddy who called the cops. “I mean, seriously? What. The. Hell?” Dean asked as they sat in a private dining room at an excusive restaurant. “Does she call the cops on single dads with teenage daughters?”“I want to know what the hell they told her.” Neo grumbled. “Thanks for calling, but please don’t do it again.”“Like, ever.” Cheryl added and they all gave a small laugh.They laughed and enjoyed the meal and for the first time all day, Dean smiled and laughed and enjoyed herself.
