Chapter 9

Tiffany – At the Airport

 

There she is.  “Hello, Katt.  Welcome to North Carolina.”

 

“Hi, Tiffany.  You look beautiful, as always,” Kira replied.

 

“Thank you.  You still look great too,” I commented.

 

“No I don’t, but thanks anyway,” she replied.

 

Well, her complex is still there.  It’s a shame she feels so bad about herself...  “Come on, the car’s this way,” I told her.  “You didn’t bring anything else, did you?”

 

“Nope.  Just my notebook with some of my programs,” she replied.

 

“Good.  Xanthos may want to see them.”

 

“So, when are you going to tell me about this guy?” she asked.

 

“What do you want to know?”

 

“Of all the other programmers, why did he pick me?” she asked.

 

“I was talking to him over lunch and recommended you for the infrared remote I mentioned on the phone,” I explained.  “I’ve got the circuit board designed, so we need the drivers and control software.”

 

“What’s it for?” she asked.

 

“Controlling all sorts of A/V equipment from a PC or notebook.”

 

“Why not just use a universal remote?”

 

“His idea is far beyond that.  Besides, I did a little research of my own and the major competition for this remote sells for $2,500.  Ours will sell for $150, or $250 with RF added.”

 

“Ours?”

 

<Heh>  “He wants me to run his new company.”

 

“I guess that’s why you moved then.”

 

“It’s definitely a good part of it.”

 

“And the rest?”

 

“Like I said, it’s complicated.  There’s the car.”

 

“Oh?  Who’s that in it?”

 

“That’s Katrina.  She offered to drive since I didn’t remember where the airport was.”

 

Kira got in back and I got in front.  “Katrina, this is Kira.  Katt, this is Kat.”

 

They both looked at each other, surprised, then back at me and said, “Kat(t)?”

 

Kira

 

Wonderful.  Another ‘Kat’.

 

Tif grinned and said, “Yeah.  Xanthos already commented that it was going to be interesting having a pair of Kats in a pack of kittens.”

 

“Kittens?” I asked.  What kind of person calls people ‘Kittens’?

 

“Like I said; complicated.”

 

“Why don’t you just tell her that we all love him and each other?” Katrina asked as we pulled away from the terminal building.

 

“What?!?”  What is this?  Some kind of cult?

 

Tiffany

 

Oh wonderful!  Spill it why don’t you!

 

Kira

 

“Is she serious?” I asked.

 

“Yes,” Tiffany answered.

 

“And just how many are there in ‘all of us’?” I asked.

 

“Seven women and Xanthos,” Katrina explained.

 

“One man and a bunch of bisexual women?  Lucky man!”  Definitely sounds like some kind of cult, but what kind of man can attract seven women to him – and keep them all from fighting each other?  Hell, they’re probably a bunch of bimbos and sluts!

 

“More than you can imagine,” Tif said.

 

“How so?” I asked.

 

“Wait till you meet him.  You might find out then...” she suggested.

 

Xanthos – In the Eagle

 

They should be here in a few minutes.  Might as well take a quick look at Kira now that she’s in range.

 

·        Subject: Kira Estoc

 

Hmm... Age 29, 5’7”, 32B-19-22, Amerasian, black hair, green eyes... certainly not unattractive... attraction to men and women: 30%... no specific boyfriend or girlfriend... Submissiveness: 80%?  And Tif described her as “an Ice Queen with a severe inferiority complex”?  Hmm...

 

I grabbed the concept sheet that I’d typed up earlier and made sure it was handy.  Just then, I noticed a car pulling up outside.  That must be them.

 

I turned off the monitor and walked out to greet them – only to find that it was Lis and Anna instead.

 

“Hi, kittens.  What’s up?” I asked them.

 

They got out of Anna’s new car and, walking seductively, came up to me with Melissa saying, “We just want to play.”

 

“It has been a few days,” Anna added.

 

I chucked and said, “I’d love to, but I’ve got a meeting here in a few minutes.”

 

They both pouted, so I gave them a quick hug and kiss.

 

“If you’d like to stick around for a while, we can have some fun after the meeting,” I suggested.

 

“Great!” Lis replied.

 

“Yeah!” Anna added.

 

“Let’s go inside, then,” I said, turning to open the Eagle’s door.

 

They went in and headed for the fridge, while I followed.

 

“So, who’s this meeting with?” Lis asked once everyone was seated in the living room.

 

“Her name is Kira.  She’s a computer programmer that Tif recommended for the remote control,” I replied.

 

“Another family member?” Anna asked.

 

“I don’t think so.  The family is already about as large as I want to make it,” I replied.

 

“I noticed that everyone seems to be pairing off,” Lis commented.

 

“I know.  Let me guess; you’re thinking that Sonya doesn’t have someone to pair off with?” I asked.

 

Lis nodded.

 

I’m sure that she’ll be getting plenty of invitations after she gets her retirement present.  I’ve already seen signs of it,” I replied.  “Sonya is an incredibly gorgeous woman at age 29.”

 

“Okay.  I was just a little concerned since she hasn’t had anyone spending nights with her,” Lis explained.

 

I heard another car pulling up outside and asked, “Do me a favor.  Keep an eye on Kira and let me know what you think of her.”

 

“Sure,” Lis replied.

 

“Okay,” Anna added.  “Why?”

 

“I don’t know.  There’s just something strange about her profile,” I replied, heading for the door.

 

Kira – On the Road

 

I wonder why we’re leaving town?  “Where are we going?”

 

“Xanthos bought a new lot out near the lake.  We’re almost there now,” Katrina explained.

 

“He’s staying in a motor home until our new home gets built,” I added.

 

“Why not just get an apartment or a house in town until then?”

 

“That’s not a bad idea,” Tif commented as Katrina slowed the car.

 

“We’re here,” Katrina said, pointing to the left.

 

I looked where she was pointing and saw a massive high-dollar RV and a couple more new Lexi.  Damn!  Looks like someone likes to spend money!

 

Once we pulled into the lot beside the RV, I noticed a tall, very powerful, reasonably good looking man stepping out of the RV.  Not exactly what I’d expect from a cult leader... but I guess it takes all kinds...

 

We got out of the Lexus and he walked up and said, “Greetings.  I’m Xanthos Pendragon.”

 

“Kira Estoc.”

 

Xanthos

 

Hmm...  She doesn’t look very comfortable for some reason...

 

“Welcome.  Would you like to come inside?” I asked.

 

“Okay.”

 

I opened the door for her and the others to enter.  When Kat got closer, I curiously asked her, “What are you doing here, kitten?”

 

“Tiffany didn’t remember the way to the airport, so I drove,” she replied.

 

 

I smiled and nodded, motioning her to enter.

 

Kira

 

The inside of his RV was very impressive.  It was obvious that this was one of the more expensive ones available.

 

Damn!  And there’s another pair of women!

 

“Hi, Lis.  What are you two doing here?” Tiffany asked.

 

“We came over to have some fun, but we didn’t know you were having a meeting,” the Latin woman answered.

 

Tiffany nodded and said, “Kira, this is Melissa,” pointing to the Latina, “and Anna,” pointing to the other Oriental woman.

 

“Would you like something to drink?” Xanthos asked when he entered.

 

“Diet Coke, if you have any,” I replied.

 

He chuckled and said; “With this many people living here who drink it, I’d better.”

 

He poured a glass and handed it to me, motioning for me to sit down on the couch.  Then he sat down at a table that had a computer on it.

 

“How was you flight?” he asked.

 

“It was okay.  Tiffany said you had a programming job for me?”

 

He nodded, smiling slightly, and asked, “How much did she tell you about it?”

 

“Quite a bit, I think.  She said you needed me to write drivers and a control program for an A/V remote control.”

 

He nodded, handing me a sheet that explained his idea.  “Right.  You have the hard part – if you’re interested.  I want the software to be EXTREMELY customizable by the customer.”  Then he laid out the specific details on everything he wanted.

 

Damn!  He’s not kidding about extremely customizable.  Thank God I’ve already got the programming tools to do a job like this!!

 

“So, are you interested?” he asked.

 

“Sure.  How much does it pay?” I asked.

 

He looked over to Tiffany with a raised brow, and she said, “For something like this, 4,000 would be normal.”

 

“Let’s make it five then.  What do you think?” he asked me.

 

“It sounds fair to me.  I should be able to have the program done within two weeks, but I’ll need the plans and a sample of the remote to make sure everything works properly – especially the drivers.”

 

“I know a good company to get the boards manufactured at, so that part shouldn’t take long.  Once I get the schematics in a computer, I’ll send you a copy,” Tiffany told me.  Then she turned to Xanthos and said, “That reminds me.  We need to get a computer that I can use for company stuff.”

 

“It’s already on order.  In fact, it should be here tomorrow morning,” he said, grinning.

 

Xanthos

 

Wait till they see their new systems!  <Grin!>

 

“Can I use your bathroom real quick?” Kira asked.

 

“Sure, it’s down the hall on the right.”

 

“Thank you,” she replied, moving to the back.

 

Hmm...  Even after this chat, something seems strange about her...  “Tif, what do you think?” I asked, motioning toward Kira with my head.

 

“I’m sure she’ll be able to do the job,” Tif replied.

 

Not exactly what I was looking for...  I turned on the monitor, cleared the screen saver, and motioned for her to take a look at Kira’s screen.  When she did, her eyes widened.

 

Tiffany

 

Submissive?!?  Maybe that’s why she acts like such an Ice Queen: she doesn’t want to be found out!

 

Xanthos

 

“She’s certainly attractive, but I don’t think that’s what your wanting to know,” Lis commented when I glanced to her.

 

“She’s a big fake,” Anna said from across the isle, unable to see the monitor.

 

“What do you mean?” Kat asked.

 

“She’s got some major secret she doesn’t want found out,” Anna explained.

 

Tif and I looked at each other and nodded.

 

How to handle this...  Or is this even something that SHOULD be handled...

 

Kira chose that moment to come back out of the bathroom, so I quickly ran “Short-Seed” and shut down the system.

 

Kira

 

What was that?  I looked around, but didn’t see anything...  Must have been my imagination...

 

Xanthos

 

Maybe if we can talk privately...

 

“Let’s go for a walk, shall we?” I suggested to Kira.

 

“Okay, I guess,” she replied.

 

“We’ll be back in a few minutes,” I told the others.

 

While we walked around the lot, I explained my plans for the castle and the office.  I also talked about the gardens and waterfalls.

 

We were near the river when I finished and she said, “If you’re trying to get me to join your cult, I’m not interested.  I’ll still do the programming for your project, but that’s mainly because of my friendship with Tiffany.”

 

Cult?  Hmm...  I guess it could be called a ‘cult’... though only by a rarely used definition.  I think you’d find ‘harem’ to be much more appropriate,” I suggested.  “Besides, I already have a group of eight.  Adding one more would likely destabilize that group, and I don’t you’d fit in too well without some major changes.”

 

“What?  I’m not beautiful enough for you?” she asked sarcastically.

 

“Tell me something,” I said, changing the subject to match her last statement, “if you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?”

 

“What?!?  What do you mean?!?” she asked.

 

I sat on a rock and motioned for her to do the same.  “If you had the ability to change yourself into whatever you wanted to be, what changes would you make?”

 

<Heh> “What changes wouldn’t I make?” she replied sarcastically.

 

I grinned slightly and said, “Be specific.”

 

“Breasts... shortness...  I just want to be able to impress a man.  You know, make him think of asking me on a date,” she replied.

 

“What makes you think someone wouldn't ask you?  Maybe you're too attractive? – Too unreachable?”

 

She scoffed at that and said, “I don’t know.  Just cold I guess.  I give a lot of men the cold shoulder.”

 

“An ‘Ice Queen with an inferiority complex’... and submissive to boot...” I said to myself.

 

“What?” she asked, shocked.

 

“I just find a mixture like yours to be rather strange.  An Ice Queen with an inferiority complex is practically unheard of... but add in your strong submissive streak, and I don’t know what to think,” I replied.

 

“Wha...  How...  I mean...” she started.

 

“The problem is, what would you do if you got your wish?” I asked her.

 

“What?”

 

I picked up the rock I was sitting on and moved it next to a tree so I could lean back some.  It also had the desired effect of surprising Kira since the stone weighed around 850 pounds.  When I sat back down, I said, “Let’s just say for grins that I were to change your body to meet your ideals.  Height, breasts, scars... everything you wanted done.  What would you do then?”

 

“I’d keep doing what I’m doing now.  I like my job, I make good money, and I have a few friends...” she replied.

 

“What if you found that you suddenly couldn't live or work where you do now – and had to lose all your friends?”

 

“Well...  Why?  If I get 60 million for moving away, I might, but I don’t have 60 mil,” she replied, trying to figure out where I was going with this.

 

“If you suddenly looked so different that your friends would only barely recognize you...”

 

“Then what?  I mean, I wouldn’t mind.  I mean, I wouldn’t lose my job over it,” she replied.  “You can’t lose your job just because you look different.”

 

“How would you explain it – if you physically were not able to explain it?” I asked, directing her.

 

“ ... I wouldn’t be able to...  I mean, I could use fingerprints or retinal scans or something,” she replied.

 

“Ah, but obviously there are going to be a LOT of VERY CONCERNED PEOPLE in the law enforcement, medical, work, and other fields...” I continued.

 

“Yeah.  I would be confused as hell.”

 

“Guinea pig?” I suggested.

 

“I don’t wanna be no freaking test subject!” she replied sharply.

 

“Like they would give you a choice?” I offered.

 

“I’d rather keep it a secret in that case...  If they came after me or something, I would...  I don’t know... move away.  I mean I don’t wanna be carved apart!” she replied.

 

“Calm down.  Do you understand now why I asked?”

 

“Yes,” she replied.  “But this is all fantasy.”

 

I pulled up a half-grin and said, “Is it?”

 

Her eyes went wide as they jumped back to the stone I was sitting on.  Then she glanced over her shoulder toward the Eagle and back at me with a combined look of shock and concern on her face.  Then her face took on a look that was closer to panic.

 

Kira

 

FUCK!  If he can really do stuff like that, maybe he can mess with people’s minds too...  He HAS to be able to read minds!  I’ve NEVER told ANYone about my wanting to be dominated!!!

 

Xanthos

 

“What are you going to do to me?!?” she asked, terrified.

 

I took a deep breath and let it out slowly, studying her.  “Relax, I’m not going to do anything that you don’t want done – except to protect our privacy.  Do you really want anything changed though – keeping in mind what we just discussed?  Remember, no matter what you do, people are going to be very curious about any sudden changes.”

 

“I don’t wanna be changed any more – not if I have to worry about being put on a carving block!” she replied.  “And I don’t want to be a member of your harem either.”

 

I nodded and got up.  “Shall we head back?” I asked, extending my hand to her.

 

She looked a bit uncomfortable about it, but took my hand and got up. 

 

When we got back to the Eagle, I turned my system back on and pulled up her record again while she watched.

 

·        Subject: Kira Estoc

·        Command: <Understanding>

·        Command: You will never discuss or let anyone know about anything we talked about during the last 35 minutes other than with Xanthos and other members of his group – and then only when no one else is around. <Send>

 

“Like I said; a guarantee of privacy,” I explained.

 

Kira

 

Damn!  And I thought he could read my mind!  “I guess that’s how you knew about my wanting to be dominated...”

 

He nodded.

 

“But why aren’t you trying to dominate me?”

 

Xanthos

 

“I’m not that kind of person,” I softly replied.

 

“But how...” she started asking, glancing at the other women in the Eagle.

 

“They all joined the family of their own free will,” I explained.

 

She went a bit wide-eyed at that, but when she looked to the others for confirmation, they all smiled and nodded in turn.

 

“Wow...  I’m sorry.  I thought they were all some sort of sex slave or something...” she said, shocked.

 

“He could have anyone he wants, but he prefers honest love over mind control.  Considering what he could do with that program, he doesn’t really do that much – and almost never against anyone’s will,” Katrina explained.

 

Almost?” Kira asked, picking up on that detail.

 

“I have a few safety measures that prevent it from falling into other people’s hands; one of which is extremely nasty to anyone that tries to break in,” I explained.  “I’ll tell you what, why don’t you go back to your life and work on that program, and Tif will let you know when she has a sample of the hardware to test it on.”

 

“You still want me to write your program for you?” she asked, surprised.

 

“Sure.  That’s why we brought you here, isn’t it?” I said.

 

“But what about what we talked about outside?” she asked.

 

“Don’t worry, you will not let anything we talked about concern you,” I said, taking advantage of “Short-Seed”.

 

“Oh.  Okay,” Kira said, now completely unconcerned.

 

I gave her some cash to cover her trip expenses and an advance, and had Katrina take her back to the airport.  Once she was gone, I decided to do something about her wishes after all – though not all at once.  Basically, I did a command that, over a twelve-month period, would lengthen her legs by two inches.  I also gradually improved her self-esteem and “talked” her into getting her breasts enlarged to a C-Cup in a couple of months, thinking it was her idea. <Grin>  While I was at it, I also slowly increased her attraction to both men and women to 60% (from their currently low 30%) and decreased her submissiveness to the same level.  By the end of the twelve months, she should be a lot happier with her self.  Oh.  I also made sure that none of these changes would start until the next time she fell asleep.  (Minor detail...)

 

While I was working on all of that, Lis, Anna, and Tif all started stripping for some fun.  About an hour later, Kat walked in and joined us.

 

 

A couple of hours later, while we were all recovering, Tif said, “Kira brought up a good idea.  Why don’t we rent or lease a large house in town until the castle is finished?”

 

“Hmm...  That is a good idea.  In fact, it’s better than the one I had of getting a double or triple-wide for the lot...  I think we can get our resident real estate expert to check into it for us,” I replied, thinking about it.

 

“I don’t know about you four, but I’m ready for dinner,” Anna said, which brought agreement from the rest of the kittens.

 

“Sounds good to me too.”  After I untangled myself from the kittens, I grabbed my cel and called Sonya’s house.

 

<Lovewell residence.>

 

It’s Amy.  “Hi, kitten.  Anything happening?”

 

<Well, hello there!  I was just thinking about you!>

 

“Good thoughts, I hope,” I said, grinning.

 

<Of course.  Sonya and I are cooking dinner right now, and we were wondering if you were planning on showing up here.>

 

“Actually, that’s why I called.  Do you need me to bring anything?”

 

<Sure.  Two or three bottles of red wine and whoever you have over there.>

 

“Okay.  We’ll be there in about thirty minutes or so.”

 

<Great.  See you then.>

 

After I ended the call, I called out, “Come on, kittens.  Everybody get your clothes on,” only to find out that they already had.

 

I got dressed and most of us grabbed an extra set of clothes so we could take a shower at Sonya’s, then we all headed out.  (Yes, I turned on the Anti-Theft macro.  This had become standard procedure whenever everyone left the Eagle.)

 

 

At dinner, we discussed the home rental idea and found out from Sonya that she knew of several large mansions that were available in an upper-class section of town.  I told her to arrange for some meetings tomorrow, and that I would be back after my order came in.

 

After dinner, I took a quick shower and headed back to the Eagle with Amy.  When we got there, we spent some time exploring each other’s sensuality before falling into a pleasant, peaceful sleep.

 

Friday Morning – Just After 8:00

 

I awoke a little early, so I gave Amy a light kiss on her forehead and got up.  A few minutes after I was dressed, I heard a vehicle pull up outside, so I went out to meet it.

 

“Ah, good morning,” I said, greeting the driver.

 

After he confirmed where he was (and who I was) he started unloading his truck.

 

“Are you sure you’ve got enough room for all this stuff?” he asked.

 

I chuckled and said, “Not yet.  I may have to make room.”

 

After he finished unloading the sixteen boxes, I signed for everything and started hauling it all inside.

 

“What’s all of this stuff?” Amy asked after the fourth large box.

 

“Presents for everyone.  Come on, get dressed,” I said, walking out to grab more boxes.  By the time I got the last box inside, she was finished.

 

“Do you think you bought enough?” she commented while shaking her head.

 

“Enough for ten new, state-of-the-art computers and a new file server,” I replied, causing her to stare wide-eyed at me.

 

“I hope you don’t plan on having to upgrade these anytime soon,” she said in disbelief.

 

“Nope.  Everyone’s going to be hard-pressed to need anything beyond what these will do,” I replied, working my way to the front.

 

When I got there, I retracted the living room expansion and got the Eagle started.  Then I handed my car keys to Amy and said, “You drive the Lexus and we’ll meet at Sonya’s.”

 

“Okay.  See you there,” she replied, heading out.

 

Once she was moving, I pulled out as well.

 

Friday Afternoon – 3:00PM

 

The second mansion that we saw was perfect.  We got all the lease paperwork done for a 1-year lease, and quickly got everything from the Eagle moved in along with Amy’s stored furniture.

 

While everyone else rested, I set up my old system and quickly modified the “Anti-Theft” macro to include breaking into the house.

 

Since the local cable company didn’t have cable modems yet, I called up the phone company and arranged for a DS3 line.  The fools couldn’t understand why I would want something that expensive for home use until I explained that it was the closest they had to what I was used to.  (Damn cable-modems are ADICTIVE!!!)

 

After that, Sonya, Kat, and Angie had to get ready for Sonya’s retirement party.  I had planned on going as well, but it dawned on me that this could be used to our benefit.  I explained the idea to Sonya and told her to casually let people know that she would be moving away shortly after the party and to arrange to sell her home.  Once she moved in with us, things would be much simpler.  She hated to go without the rest of us, but understood the need.  (We needed to disassociate the older Sonya from the rest of us so she could “move away” without a trace.)

 

While she was getting ready, the rest of us made a mad rush to get some furniture for the new home.  The stuff we got for this house was nothing compared to what we all planned on for the castle, but it would easily get us by until then.  They even delivered and assembled everything that evening.  (Money Talks!)

 

That night, Sonya joined me in my new bed while everyone else paired off as usual.  Neither of us felt like doing much, so I simply held her, spooned against me, and lightly caressed her to sleep.  I followed shortly behind.

 

Saturday Morning

 

After a quick stop at the big computer store for anti-static mats and some forgotten software, I led the others in the step-by-step process of assembling the computers.

 

Tif was a bit surprised when we started opening the boxes with the hard disks.  When she noticed that they were all Ultra-2 SCSI, she accused me of ordering the wrong drives – until I pulled out the matching controllers, surprising her even more.

 

You should have seen the look on everyone’s faces when they started unpacking all of the 17” SGI flat-panel monitors.

 

Eventually, we had all of the basics assembled and I had the processors and 256MB of memory installed in each of the computers.  After a final double check, we were ready to turn the computers on and install the software and drivers.

 

Each of the systems got Windows 98, MS Office, and Netscape.  (Except for the server, which got NT-Server.)

 

I got another interesting reaction out of everyone when I reported that the new file server had almost 300 gigabytes of free disk space.  (7 x 50GB Hard Disks in a RAID-5 configuration.)

 

Long before we finished installing the software, I had Giovanni’s deliver lunch.  I definitely knew where I would be getting my chef when the castle was completed.  <Grin!>

 

Once we were finished with lunch and had the Office software installing, we made a run on the computer store again for printers and DVD’s.  I purchased a bunch of Alps MD-5000 for everyone’s personal use and one of their high-speed, duplexing laser printers and a color laser printer both for use on the network.  As far as DVD’s; if anyone expressed the least amount of interest in it, we bought a copy.  All in all, we selected over 300 titles, which was enough to last us quite a while.  The last thing I did before we left was to buy a 48” TV and a DVD player to go with it.  They said they’d deliver it Monday, which was fine by me.

 

Later that evening, we finally finished installing the software.  While the kittens spent some time watching movies on their new systems, I installed the Master Control software and a lot more – different – passwords on my new speed-demon.  After I transferred the macros and important files over from my old system, (the P2-350) I wiped the old drive in such a way that NO ONE would ever be able to get anything off of it.  After that, I permanently retired the system.

 

Around 11:30, Angie, Sonya, and Kat returned from the retirement party.  After the four of us took a shower together, (primarily to get rid of the overbearing odor they had picked up at the party) we went to bed in my new extra-large (California King) bed.

 

Sunday

 

All I can say is that it’s VERY interesting being woken up with two mouths working on you dick and a pussy on your mouth!!!

 

Sunday ended up being our day of rest.  After the past week, we ALL needed it!  Most of our day was spent either in the hot tub, or in various other places, gently making love to each other, though Tiffany did spend a few hours getting her schematics into her computer.

 

Monday

 

The installation man from the phone company showed up bright and early to get the DS3 line installed.  He never expected ANY of the surprises that we had for him.

 

After making sure that everyone was decent, (or well hidden) I let him in to make the connection to the File Server.  It was funny watching his face as I explained what the server actually had in it.  When he asked why a home-user would actually need anything like this, I told him that I enjoyed my toys – which had him shaking his head again. 

 

Then Tif and Kat walked in to see how it was going.  I’m sure that the look on his face was a good match for mine when I first saw Kat.  After a few seconds, I slapped him on the back to get him to breathe again.  After he coughed his tongue back out of his throat, I said, “You know?  I had the same reaction the first time I met her too,” to which he replied, “Lucky son of a...”

 

A short time later, we had ten new user ID’s and our new Domain name, and he said we were ready to go.  (Eight Family Members + Sales and Support email addresses.)

 

After the kittens and I made sure that we all Internet access, the installation guy left and Tiffany sent off her plans to Kira and her manufacturing contact.  The rest of the day was spent teaching everyone – that didn’t already know – how to access and research the Internet, Email, and News Groups. After that, everyone started emailing all of their old friends to let them know where could be reached.

 

We shared that evening drinking champagne and eating cheese & crackers in the hot tub.  By the time bedtime came around, we were all ready for a peaceful night’s sleep.

 

Tuesday

 

The architect called.  The extra money I was spending on the castle was paying off; they already had the plans completed.  After a final review by everyone involved – including the general contractor – I gave the go-ahead to get everything started.  I also recommended that they put priority on the wood shop so they would be able to use it during the construction of the castle and office building.  Since I was paying for extra crews, everything should take well under the four-year estimate that was called for.

 

The GC said he’d have the crews together and they would get started the next week.

 

I also went over the landscaping plans while I was there.  They really looked great!  I told the landscaping artist about an idea I had for a number of statues to be scattered around the property, and within a matter of minutes, he had it blended in.  He also knew of a perfect place to get the statues made.

 

A little later in the day, I stopped by the sculptor’s place and made sure that he was able to meet the level of detail and realism that I wanted.  He was a bit surprised at the mix of statues that I wanted, but was more than happy to take the commission.

 

Overall, it was going to be a truly impressive site.  From the two 8’ tall knights on their majestic horses at the front gate, to the assorted big-cats scattered around the garden, anyone I allowed onto the property was going to be in for a very pleasant surprise.

 

Wednesday

 

Haggerty Real Estate agreed to sell Sonya’s house for her and send the check to Angie at the temporary house.  One of the local moving companies moved all her furniture over to our new house.  (A donation to her daughter. <Grin>)

 

Once that was done, all of us (except Sonya) went to get our drivers licenses updated to the new address.

 

That night, most of the kittens and I spent some time making love to Sonya.

 

Thursday

 

It was time for the change.  I had a way to do it, but it was a bit involved to do it so the state’s records would show up right.

 

Sonya started it off by getting in her car and driving the 80 miles to Greensboro.  Once there, she sold her Cadillac.  After that was done, she gave me a call.  After making sure she was someplace she wouldn’t be seen, (including from above) I made her 29 again and an inch taller.  Once that was done, she did a little shopping for clothes there and returned to Charlotte with Amy, who had followed in her Lexus.

 

Once she was back, I had her go get a new driver’s license with the new address on it.  For some reason, <Grin> everyone at the Dept. of Transportation ignored the obvious differences between Sonya’s old license and what they were seeing in front of them.  They also chose to change everything about her – without realizing it, of course.  (Of course, the main office didn’t notice it either when their records were changed!)

 

It took the bulk of the day, but by time Sonya got home, she had officially become Laura Richardson.  She was now a 29-year-old, 6’ tall, redhead with a new ID, a new driver’s license number, and a new birth certificate on their way.  I also made it so no one in the area would be concerned about her lack of a driving record.

 

In other words, Sonya Lovewell no longer existed, and no one cared about it.  Laura Richardson now existed, and again, no one would care about it; no one would feel like doing any sort of research on her; etc.

 

I even made sure that everyone in the family referred to the new person as Laura unless they were specifically talking about the previous persona.  As far as everyone in the family (and the state) was concerned, Laura and Sonya were two completely different people.  Even Laura only thought of herself as Laura Richardson.

 

That night, I officially welcomed Laura into the family.  While she was still a very sensual woman, she also held many of the traits that I loved so much about Angie and Kat.  We spent several hours privately exploring each other before we took a break.

 

Afterwards, while we were lying around recovering, Angie knocked lightly on the door.  We decided to let her join us, and – to my surprise – Laura and Angie spent a good couple of hours making love to each other.  As far as I can tell, the differentiation between Richardson and Lovewell in their minds allowed them to extend their love to each other in a much more tender way.  Even though it was a surprise, (technically, it was incest) it didn’t bother me to see them making love with each other.  In fact, I joined them shortly after they got started.

 

Later, when we were recovering again, I had Laura and Angie lying against either side of me.  I don’t know how anyone could have ever considered leaving these two.  The man was obviously a moron!  “I want you both to know that you are treasured.”  You are ALL treasured!

 

Friday

 

We decided that it was time for Kat to get moved in.  Unfortunately, that meant dealing with her parents...  When Kat and I got there, I was very pleasantly surprised to find out how much her parents actually supported her.  I was also surprised that they didn’t mind the age difference between Kat and myself.  (I found out quite a bit later that Kat’s father had “Robbed the Cradle” as they say.)

 

Together, Kat and I got her stuff moved to the other house where the other kittens moved everything into her new room.  As understanding as her parents were of me, somehow I don’t think they would have been quite as supportive had they known the full extent of her relationships.

 

That night, Tif and Amy combined their efforts to do Sonya’s Initiation while I spent my evening with Kat and Angie.

 

God, I love all of these women!
