Descend- Seeing Stars by Sean Oswald (the ebook reader .TXT) 📕

her very eyes. He would just need to find her on her own, so that he could reassure her.

      Charlotte’s statement was much more troubling. He needed to come to terms with the question of just how many wives he wanted to end up with. On the one hand, was marriage any more of a commitment than the fusion, but on the other hand, could he marry a woman that he didn’t love. Hell, he had already married seven women and somehow found himself in love with them all. He didn’t know how but even after that he continued to develop feelings for his other fuses and most confusing for some others like Rosa.

      While thinking about that, Jay didn’t notice that Esseme had walked up to him. She ran her finger along his arm and then up his neck and under his chin. She leaned into his ear and whispered, "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?”

      Jay smiled and laughed at himself. Gah, he was such a dweeb sometimes. He had had sex literally thousands of times with over one hundred women in less than a year and he was still made all wibbly wobbly as her flirting. Before he could say anything, she said, “Cheri, I’m not ready to be a momma yet. If we have hundreds of years, then we can afford to have fun for a while but do feel free to come have some fun with me tonight if you want.”

      Daphne and Samantha stood up. Samantha said, “So Daph and I are willing to wait or ready to go right now. We both believe that we should space out the waves of children but if our children are going to grow up in half the normal time then you should probably have another group of children every few months. Talking about it like this may not be the most romantic, but at least the practice is a ton of fun.”

      After they had left, only CeeCee, Amelia, Mia, and Ava remained. Amelia said, “I was sort of in the mindset that we should all wait, but I do find what Huong and Jessie said to be persuasive. Life goes on and there are always going to be troubles. Then again, how often are we going to be facing galactic-spanning alien monsters?” She shrugged her shoulders at the obvious rhetorical question. “As for me, I’ll be ready for more kids once Michelle is maybe three. I do know I don’t want to have too many little ones at the same time.” Then she also left.

      CeeCee said, “I’m the newest one here so I don’t have any right to speak up, but I agree that life keeps going. Our cluster only had a few kids and they were lack of birth control accidents. We are in control of our destiny now, so why wait. But that said, as much as I like you, I would like to get another few months of getting to know you. I’m more than willing to stay and help though.”

      Jay rolled his eyes. “You will have to fight with Huong over that privilege, she has claimed the role of my Madame.” CeeCee gave that same infectious laugh and then left.

      Now it was down to the true issue. Jay realized that his fuses were all their own people and there were many issues he needed to work out with each of them. He didn’t want to be unfair to the rest of the team. But maybe he should change the rules and start using more of his time to get to know each of them better. For now though, he needed to deal with the two in front of him.

      He looked from Mia to Ava and back again. Ava said, “It is okay, Master, if you want to be with your first fuse. I know she is special to you. She will be a good mother to your children.”

      “Dammit, pet, stop that. You are mine. And I will do with you as I see fit. I have already told you that it is my will for you to be happy. I also told you it is my will that you bear my children. You are my wife. You will be loved and valued, and you will have no choice but to be precious to me. So, accept it. I order you to.” Jay’s voice grew firmer as he spoke.

      “Yes, Master,” Ava said as she dropped to her knees in front of him and grabbed onto his leg. She didn’t say anything further, but he heard coming loud and clear through her thoughts, “Master loves me, he really loves me. Master wants me, he really wants me.” The same words repeated over and over as she reassured herself.

      Jay looked over at Mia and said, “You’ve been quiet, but I can feel you. I know you feel like you have been neglected, like you have been abandoned. But I would never abandon you. I figured out that I loved you that morning in the island pass. Our fusion may have been an accident, but it was a happy accident, the kind that makes for a good life. You didn’t feel good enough, but you are gorgeous, kind, funny, and smart. I want you in my life just as much as I want this little pet here, just as much as I want Amelia, Meikiyo, and all the others.”

      “Then turn me into a momma,” she said back to him.

      “Right now if you want,” Jay said as he placed his hands on both women and teleported them to his bedroom.

Chapter 11- Momma Mia

      An instant later they appeared in his room. Jay was caught off guard though because it wasn’t just them. Huong was waiting there on the bed. After he recovered from
