Jerry laughed a little. "Thanks for buying my book, that was sweet of you. You really do get lost easily, don't you?" He smiled. "Yes, you go right and then down a few blocks." He lead Luther to his house again and began packing. In a couple of hours they had everything they needed packed and loaded onto Jerry's wagon. "I'm so glad to have all this nasty stuff with Erorn and me in the past. I'm glad to be part of a family again, even if we are a strange little family." He chuckled. "Well, guess we should go home." He got up into the wagon and helped Luther up. He drove them to the mansion.
"It was nice for a first day. I almost gave the head chef a heart attack. He had no idea I owned the place." He smiled and kept cooking. He was making pasta and he was chopping onions and other veggies for the sause. He kissed James and smiled. "Did you have a good day while I was out?"
James mumbled about how it was boring as all hell then kissed down his neck. "Glad you had a good day though. Might have to beat some people who would cross you." His hand traveled down Erorn's body.
Jerry saw his nephew bent over the table and James a bout to go to town on him and he dropped the box of books he had in his hands. He turned bright red and turned away. "Oh wow, That's an image that's going to be burned into my brain for a while." He laughed nervously.
"Oh shit!" Erorn gasped as he pulled his sweats back up. "Sorry I didn't expect you home so soon."
Luther was right behind him with a box of stuff , a smile from ear to ear plastered on his face. "Oh James... this makes up for last night on so many levels." He laughed. James glared at him while shoving and sighed. "Perfect timing..." He mumbled and walked out of the kitchen. Luther patted JJ's shoulder, "Just think... nevermind." He laughed and walked away to put the box in his room. He placed the box in his room and turned to see JJ still red. "Like what you see or was that just me?" He asked.
He then went back to cooking diner for him and James. "Well, I guess we'll have to until after diner for dessert." He smiled at James. He got the sauce simmering again and threw the pasta in the pot to boil.
Jerry looked up at Luther. "I think it was just you." He said kind of dryly. "But, don't feel bad about it. He has good genes." Jerry chuckled. He put away his boxes and then got the rest of his stuff. He went into his room with Luther. It was getting a little late, and he got a fire going and sat down in a chair to read the book he got. He liked being in the same room with Luther.
He helped JJ finish his packing and when he placed the last box down it dawned on him what JJ meant about good genes. "Oh no... you don't get to talk about your junk in front of me. That is just fucking cruel." He said. Rolling all over JJ's bed before getting a comfortable position and crawling under his covers. "Old men always being so cruel to us youngins." He pouted.
James sighed, "I think I lost my appetite for dessert." He said getting him a small bowl of food and going back to the sun room. He ate slowly and sighed. He wasn't even really hungry, but he wasn't about to waste food either. "You know your uncle is just the older version of you, Erorn?" He asked him.
"I'll keep that in mind. I need to learn my boundaries too." He smiled before putting his book down and getting into bed with Luther. He wrapped his arms around Luther and held him close. He loved cuddling. He hadn't cuddled anyone in a long time. "I forgot how much I missed this. You're comfy."
Erorn chuckled. "Well, if you hungry, you know where to find me." he went with James into the sun room eating as he walked. "That's not true. He doesn't talk as much, he doesn’t flirt, he's not clingy and he doesn't seem to be the least bit attracted to you." Erorn grinned at James. "But I admire his taste in Luther." He leaned over and kissed James.
Luther turned to him when he started to cuddle him. He cupped JJ's face softly, "First you tease me about your member down there and now you are calling me fat. I don't think we are going to work out if you keep that up." He smiled and kissed his forehead before wiggling away a bit. "Punishment. Arms length. Just like at the dances." He smiled. "Wait... did they have those back in your day?" Luther teased.
James grumbled and kissed him back, "Find it kind of funny how easily you hand Luther to your uncle. Don't get me wrong, I want Luther to be happy, but with him? Come on... Luther's whole thing of showing love is fucking you." He said before shoveling food into his mouth,
"First off, comfy is not the same as fat and you just called me old. So I think we're even." He grinned and pulled him back and held onto him tight. "I'm not letting you go so you can just forget it." He smiled before kissing his neck to try and tickle him, he was unaware that Luther wasn't ticklish. When Luther didn't react, Jerry pouted. "No fair I can't tickle you?!"
Erorn looked at James with a grin. First of all, I didn't hand anyone over to anybody. Jerry and Luther are both adults, I'm not in a posistion to tell either of them who to date. Second, even if I did have a problem with them dating, you've seen how well things work out when I throw a fit, doing that would just make things worse. But the thing is it could be good for both of them. Jerry hasn't opened himself up to anyone like this in years and Luther could use someone who's only into him for the nice person he is." Erorn sighed a little. "We got a strange thing going here, but it works. I'm not gonna mess with it anymore and risk messing it up. I'm just going to roll with it." He finished eating his food then took James' empty bowl into the kitchen and washed the dishes. He returned to the sun room and sat with James for a little bit enjoying the silnence.
Luther grinned evilly. "My super power." He laughed evilly and started to tickle JJ making sure he begged for mercy. "Muwahahaha!"
James eyed him, "If you say so, kid." When Erorn was gone he picked up his book and began reading. At this rate he would be JJ's age before he finished it. He was a good bit into his book when Erorn came back. He read a bit more before slamming his book shut. "So fucking done." He threw the book on the table and stood up, stretching."I am going for a walk. You can go stare at your uncle and luther like a creep child." He said, smirking at the idea before walking out of the sun room and outside.
Jerry laughed as Luther tickled him and he tried to push him away, but had no luck until he begged Luther to stop. He chuckled and hugged Luther. "You're a sneaky kid aren't ya? I'll have to keep my eyes on you." He joked. "But I am getting a little bit tired. If you wanted to stay in here, that's fine, or you can go if you like. I don't want to be too tempting for you." He chuckled, knowing that Luther had more self control than that.
"Ewwe that's gross. And he's the one who was looking at us." Erorn joked. "Be safe out there, it's getting dark out. I'll be in my room when you get back." He smiled as he walked up to his room. He opened the desk drawer and looked at the rings again. He picked them up and looked at them for a while. "No, it's still not the time for it yet. You'll know when it's right." He smiled and put them back in his drawer. He went and laid down on the bed and wondered what it would be like to have a wedding with the two of them. Who would walk down the aisle first? Or would all three of them walk down together? Who would show up? Would they even want a wedding? Maybe it would be better to just give them the rings as a symbolic gesture to show his commitment to them.
Luther smiled in victory. "Mmm I think I will go. You are just too tempting." He smiled and kissed JJ's forehead before sliding off the bed. "Have a good night, Daddy JJ." He said before walking out and closing the door. He walked to his room but didn't go in. Luther wanted to mess with Erorn first. He walked into his room and poked Erorn's butt. "I would take you right here and right now, but I will leave you for James. He is a bit restless since we walked in on you two. I am heading to bed..." He walked to the door and looked over his shoulder. "If I married your uncle.. you have to call me Uncle Luther when we... you know." He wiggled his eyebrows and laughed. "Now goodnight." He smirked and walked out and into his own bedroom
James walked a good bit ways from the house. He was frustrated from earlier and he would have taken Erorn in the sun room, but he might not be able to control his fist if Erorn's uncle walked in on them again. Right when he was getting comfortable to take Erorn in the house besides the bedroom, here came his uncle. "Could always take over Luther while he is with Erorn's uncle... ruin that real quick." He mumbled and kicked a rock before sighing. "No... Luther would murder me." James had thought his way out of taking Erorn tonight. He made sure he walked extra long so he would be tired when he got back home. He came through the sun room and locked it before going to his room and showering.
Jerry fell asleep quickly as he had always felt more at home here than he did in his own house.
Erorn heard James come in and go to his room. He was a little disappointed, he was hoping that he would come in and finish what they started in the kitchen, but he guessed that the incident had gotten under his skin. He didn't want to just barge into James' room and give it too him, he was doing good so far at not being clingy. Instead he grabbed one of his records and put it on and started singing with it. He didn't sing loud and he kept the volume down low. He didn't want to keep anyone awake, he just felt like singing.
Once James was done with his shower he heard the music and Erorn singing. He decided to go into Erorn's room anyway. He walked in and smiled softly. Making sure not to disturb him and his singing. James made his way into Erorn's bed and laid down. He rested his head on his hand and watched him. James couldn't help but think he was cute when he sang. He had been trying hard not to be clingy, but he was missing it. James sighed and turned on his back and rested his arm over his eyes.
Luther stayed up a bit talking himself down from thoughts he was having of JJ and he wasn't about to go after Erorn just so he could release. He was going to have to learn how to control it somehow.
Erorn hadn't seen James come in, he was staring into the fire the way he liked to do. He turned to see James laying in his bed with his arm across his eyes. He kept singing as he took James' arm and pulled it away as he looked into James' eye and smiled as he sang. He serenaded James for a few songs as he smiled at him the whole time as he wanted James to know how he felt through his singing. After he was done singing he got into the bed with James. "It's nice to have an audience." He smiled. James looked tired from running so Erorn didn't try to seduce him, he just laid his head on his chest.
James fell in love with Erorn all over again. "Mmm I love you, kid." He whispered as his fingers ran though his hair slowly. "I sometimes wish it was just the two of us again. That time seemed like decades ago." He said softly and rolled Erorn on his back. He looked down at him and smiled, "I would kidnap you all over again." He kissed Erorn before kissing his neck and going back to his side of the bed.
"I understand what you mean, it was really nice those first couple weeks. If I knew then what I know now, I'd let you." Erorn blushed. He kissed down James' neck and back and put his arms around him. "I love you so much."
James smiled, "Probably." He joked. "Poor Luther... he is trying to be a good boy with you uncle." He said with a yawn. James smirked evilly and sent Luther some very unhelpful emotions. Luther screamed a few seconds later. "STOP JAMES!" James chuckled. "My bad." He smiled.
"Do you really think it is going to last? You are the most physical person I know, besides Erorn over here." James said, getting up.
Luther stood up straight, "I am trying, James." Then he looked over at Erorn, "I know what I can and can't do. It is the fact that if I could control myself when he wasn't around I could when I was with him."
James shook his head, "Don't you fucking shove your feelings on me when you are heart broken." He shoved past Luther. "Damn family is a fucking mess." He said and went to his room.
Luther frowned, "Sorry." He said softly before walking back to his own room.
I'm sorry too, Erorn thought to him, I didn't know He was gonna do that. He stopped commenting after that, he didn't want to invade his mind more than that. He pulled the covers back up. He knew it wasn't his problem, but he still thought it was mean of James to do this to Luther. But then it kinda sank in a bit. Luther was the only one dating Jerry. James didn't really want him,it seemed, and they always shared the relationship. It made a little more sense now. The same shit he had already been through was probably about to happen again. He still thought it was mean, but he thought he understood more now. He closed his eyes and felt bad for Jerry, he wasn't as open as Erorn and probably wouldn't be able to handle this kind of craziness. He eventually fell asleep.
James was the first to wake up in the house. He packed his stuff. James had to go back to his family's house again anyway. He wrote a short note and left it on his night stand and then walked into Jerold's room and closed the door softly. He walked over to his bed and yanked him off of his bed. "Wake the fuck up." James growled.
Jerry was confused and a little sore from hitting the floor. "What the hell?" he said still sleepy and groggy. "What the hell is going on?" He was confused by the fact that it was James in his roomJ.
James stooped down to Jerold's level. "You forget who the fuck my father is." James said lowly, but angrily. "Don't think for a second I won't do to you what he would have done. The fact that you even look in my brother's direction disgusts me. He is a physical person and he has to shut that down for your pathetic old ass. I don't care if you are Erorn's only family left. Luther's mine and I won't see him hurt by an abomination like you." He stood up and kicked Jerold's feet. "It was better when you weren't around." He scuffed and walked out of his room.
Jerry didn't know how to respond to that. He thought things were fine. He didn't think Luther would have come after him if this was going to happen. He didn't say a word and took his stuff back out to his wagon. He went into Luther's room. He kissed him with tears in his eyes. "I have to leave." He choked out as he saw Luther wake up. "I can't see you anymore. Ask your brother. I'm sorry I hurt you." He left the room and headed to the door.
Luther woke up confused. "W-What?" He asked, but JJ wouldn't tell him and when he answered with to ask his brother he knew what had happened. "Like hell you will..." He threw the covers back and grabbed JJ's arm. "You can't leave. James said you hurt me? I am not hurt, Jerold. I am just trying to control myself for you." He said before cupping his face gently. "I want to be with you, Jerold. I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't. Fuck what James said to you... just please... please don't go." He begged.
Jerry looked at him crying. "He said he would do to me what your father would. I'm not a brave man. I can't stand up to him. I want to be with you too, but James will kill me." He fell to his knees and cried.
Luther was beyond pissed. "Go in my room. I will come back for you." He kissed JJ's forehead and got up before running out of the house in time to see James getting on the carriage. Luther pulled him off and shoved him to he ground. "Are you fucking kidding me?! Since when the fuck are you father?!" Luther went to swing but James kicked him off and rolled onto his feet. "If I was father I would have murdered him in his sleep and left him there for you to find him drowned in his own blood." James growled. Luther stood up, holding his side. "What the hell is wrong with you, James?" Luther asked.
James straightened his coat. "We can't share him and he isn't sharable. He is a fucking joke and father should have offed him when he had the chance." James said emotionless.
"Just because you don't want him, means I can't?" Luther scoofed.
"It is the fact that when you get turned on you will use Erorn as your personal little toy. You won't be fucking him because you want him! You will because you want that stupid excuse for a man. Erorn doesn't fucking seem to see that. He is in his own little tiny world and thinks that this thing could work.: James growled.
"I would never... I wouldn't use Erorn. I love him." Luther said, heart broken that his brother would think he would.
Erorn woke up from all the shouting and went down to the drive to see what the hell was going on. He was getting sick of this shit and was beginning to wonder if this was all his life was going to be from here on out. He didn't know what to ask who or what to say in general, he figured it was what he thought was going to happen. "What the hell is going on?"
James and Luther looked down at Erorn. "James turned into our father and threatened to do what our father would have done to Jerold if he didn't leave me alone. Some how he got his mind wrapped around the idea that I will only use you because I can't get with Jerold. And Jerold is trying to leave because he is scared that James will kill him. Oh and that Jerold is unsharable."
James just shrugged. "I'm going." He said and hopped back on the carriage, getting ready to leave.
Erorn didn't know what the hell came over him. When he heard that James threatened Jerry, he was over come with anger. He jumped to the carriage and grabbed James by the collar and threw him off. He jumped down next to him. "What the fuck is wrong with you?! We don't do that shit here!" He screamed at him. He didn't care that James could probably kill him, and probably would if it kept up at this rate. "Luther fucking loves that man and you're pissed because he's fucking different? Take a look at yourself you freak! He's not hurting Luther, you're just fucking pissed because Luther is attracted to him. It's a new experience for him. If you think he's so unsharible, don't fucking share him. You've proven that you can block each other out so when they're together block each other out."
James stood back up and dusted himself off. He didn't say anything as he got back on his carriage. Luther cried out, "James... please no. Just try with him." James ignored him. He knew whatever chances he had with Jerold was gone. "I have to go." Was all he said and left. Luther stood there feeling James slip from him like he did that month he was gone.
Erorn couldn't begin to imagine the pain Luther was in, Erorn was hurting too, but not nearly as bad. He walked over to Luther and held him. He couldn't say anything that wouldn't make it worse he just did his best to comfort him and be there for him. He cried with Luther holding him. He felt helpless and scared that James would never come back.
Luther stood there for a while. He couldn't feel or hear James, the bond was still there but barely. After a while he took Erorn back into the house and went find Jerold. "Hey... you are safe. So no need to run off okay?" He tried to sound okay and upbeat for him.
Jerry was sitting on the bed, he heard the shouting all the way up in the room. He could tell Luther was in a lot of pain, he couldn't help but feel responsible for some of it. "I'm sorry for all this." He hugged Luther and cried into his shoulder. "I didn't want any of this to happen, it kills me that I caused this."
Erorn went deep into a depression. He was angry, hurt, and he felt a little guilty too. He didn't mean it when he called James a freak, but he was just so angry at him for how he was treating Luther and Jerry. He went into his own room and followed the secret passage up to the attic. He stayed up there all day and didn't eat anything. He felt like he had broken everyone up. "I guess it's too much to ask for to have a family." he muttered as he looked out the window at the snow falling. It was fresh and pure, but it didn't seem to make him feel any better like it usually did.
Luther held JJ close, "It wasn't you... if anything this is James' fault or rather... mine." He cupped his face softly and kissed him. "You are going to be okay, but there are things you need to know. James and I we share our partners. This... I should have told you this or rather I thought you would have figured it out since we are with Erorn, but I didn't even think about James in all of this, especially when he thought about me when it came to Erorn. Though I didn't even want to be in a relationship in the first place, with anyone. I should have asked him to give you a shot or better yet... have asked you if you would have been okay with it in the first place. I know where he is going, but I have to give him sometime to cool down." He smiled softly. "This isn't your fault, okay?"
“Hey kid, you okay? Why don't you come down? Please?” Luther asked Erorn.
"I knew you had a special bond with your brother and that you were sharing Erorn, but I didn't realize sharing was a prerequisite. I would have talked to him first about all this If I knew that. I don't think you'll be able to salvage this, he hates me, he doesn't want anything to do with an abomination." He sighed. "But for you, I would be willing to give him a shot if you can ever convince him."
Not sure how okay I am, but yeah, I'll be down in a minute. Erorn thought back to Luther. He came back down from the attic and walked to Luther's room. He did his best not to look depressed. He gave a fake smile to Jerry. "Don't worry Uncle Jerry, everything will be okay." He gave him a big hug to try to comfort him. I didn't mean it when I called him a freak. I'm sorry I was just angry. He thought to Luther.
Luther sighed, "I have no idea... he likes to be physical almost as much as I do." He smiled when Erorn came in the room. "Before he completely shut me out I could feel he was more hurt at the fact that Erorn called him a freak than he was of me being with JJ. The one solid in the whole situation seemed to have...become unsolid. I know he left because he had to go back to our old home to do things with the business, but I have no idea if he even wants to come back now. I plan on giving him a couple of weeks to cook down before I go back home and talk to him. Our mother was the one who installed love and kindness where our father installed hate and anger. When me and James would get in fights, thanks to our father, my mother didn't care if we had bruises or cuts, she said a sword is nothing compared to sharpen words." Luther looked at Erorn, "I'm sorry. I hope my mother can work on him while I am away. She never wanted her sons to turn out like their father."
Erorn felt like total shit. "Sure, he calls my uncle an abomination and threatens his life, but I call him a freak and suddenly I'm the bad guy. Fuck I didn't even mean it, I was just pissed." He said pissed more at James than anything. "I need to get out of the house for a little while. I'll come back, but right now I don't think it's safe for me to be confined with people I love when I'm this angry. I'm gonna go hunting, maybe killing a bunch of animals will relieve some frustration." He growled and took his sword and walked to the door.
Luther ran after him, "Emotionally that is two different things. He wouldn't have said it to him if he had any feelings towards him. I mean... I am beyond pissed that he called him that and that he threatened his life, but you have to understand you mean the world to James. He so upset with me because he believed I would only have be intimate with you because I couldn't be with JJ. He thinks I am just going to use you as a toy and he would snap me in half if I ever did that to you. Which I would never..." He said.
Erorn turned and looked at Luther. "When the hell is he going learn that I love both of you? Oh course I'm going to be pissed at him if he hurts you and at you if you hurt him. It doesn't mean I love either one of you any less. I know you'd never do that to me, and it kills me and infuriates me that he would think you would. I still love the little bastard, but he hurt the other person I love and it was completely uncalled for even if he did think he was protecting me. If I mean the world to the both of you, then you guys need to realize that you mean the world to me too and hurting either of you hurts me and I won't just stand by and let him hurt you. But I guess right now I don't have any choice but to stand by and let it happen, so I'm going to go out and hurt something else so I don't hurt anyone else. I'm fucking pissed at myself for saying something like that, it was vile of me. I know you know I didn't mean it, but he doesn't. He may never come back to me because I said something stupid in the heat of anger. The only way it could be any worse is if I lost you too. I promise I'm going to come back, I just need to go get some of this anger out so I don't accidently hurt one of you guys too. I love you both." He said before kissing Luther and going out the door.
Luther watched him leave before going back to JJ. He didn't say anything and just laid down next to him. This was a mess and he didn't know how to clean it this time. "Our father called us the exact same thing when he found out that we slept with men too." Luther finally said. "At least he didn't kill you... which I think means somewhere he actually cares... about you. Maybe." He sighed. "I don't know. If he continues down this path he will surely be like my father and I don't think I can kill him." Luther choked on his words. "I know my brother has passion in him... he shows it through intimacy though... so he probably thinks it would be useless to try and be with someone who doesn't like it."
"I... I don't know what to do. I don't know what I can do to help with this. I wish I... I wish I could be intimate. I wish I could show you on a physical level how much I care, but... I should have known better. This is why a rarely allow myself to let people in. I knew better and I still let myself fall for you. I just wish this wasn't such a pain in my ass all the time. Love and sex aren't the same thing. I'm so glad that you understand that, but even you are having hard time learning to control yourself. I wish I could let you just fucking go to town on me, but it's not fair when I'm not able to return the favor, when I can't get it up for you. I just... I wish I was different." He looked into Luther's eyes before hugging him.
Erorn went out into the woods and he was quickly beginning to take his frustration out on any living thing he saw. He swung his sword wildly from one little forest creature to the next. Soon the snow had turned to rain and the rain was turning into a storm quickly. He barely noticed as he thrust his sword into the neck of an elk and then a bolt of lightning flashed and startled him."Fuck that was loud!" He yelled. He did his best to keep his thoughts in his own head as he slaughtered so many creatures, but occasionally one or two of them would come to the front of his mind. Most of them were questioning whether James only loved him because he was fuckable, and if he believed that that was the only reason he thought that Erorn love James. It was starting to get late and Erorn still didn't feel safe to go home. He calmed himself down enough to build a little shelter and a fire underneath it to keep him warm. He took some of the elk and deer that he had killed and cooked it over the fire. He warmed himself next to the fire, hating himself for what he had said, hating James for making him mad enough to say it. He mostly hated the fact that he was missing James and he wasn't sure if the damage that had been done was permanent or if his mother could talk some sense into him and heal his and in turn everyone else's broken hearts.
"It is a bit hard, but this is new to me. You have to understand that. I mean, I don't mind going to town on you, but if you feel no enjoyment there is no point to it. I don't care if I don't get any from you. I didn' that whole four months, I just need to get back at the point... or maybe... I did use Erorn for when I coudn't get with... you." He rubbed his mouth. "Fuck..." James was right. He hugged JJ close to him. "Don't worry about being different, okay?" He said. He heard some of Erorn's thoughts and didn't want to intrude on him. Luther thought it was by accident. He, like James, needed some time to calm down.
Jerry was exhausted from all that had happened. "I don't mind you getting physical pleasure from someone else if I can't provide it too you, but if that is the issue, you may want to take it up with Erorn. He loves you and he knows this is new to you, I think he will understand, hopefully." He spoke into Luther's shoulder. "I hope he's okay out there, he used to hate the thunder and lightning as a kid. It was so loud to his sensitive hearing, like it was painful."
Erorn was trying to control himself outside. He was curled up into a ball with his face burried in his knees and his hands over his ears. He was all out crying between the pain in his ears and the pain in his heart, it was all he could do. He was barely able to keep the fire going because he didn't want to take his hands off his ears. He thought he had gotten over this earlier, but there was just too much hitting him at once to ignore the noise.
Luther sighed and got up. "I am going to go out looking for him. Stay here... and don't run away." He said before grabbing his rain coat and running out. "Erorn!" He yelled, but the thunder and lightning was too loud. Erorn where the hell are you? Come home or I am going in the woods. He thought to him while standing at the edge of the woods ready to go in.
Are you fucking crazy? You'll get lost and we'll both die out here. I'll be there in a minute, but I'm not sure if I'm good to be around people. He thought back at him. He got to the edge of the woods and he was soaking wet and covered in blood. He saw Luther there waiting and went with him back to the house. He went inside and stripped off his clothes there at the door and then got a fire going in the livingroom. "I'm sorry for going out in this like an idiot, but I just couldn't risk hurting you or uncle Jerry." He said as he warmed up at the fire. He took a few deep shivering breaths. "I think I got enough of it out of my system to be safe." He stared at the fire and it calmed him a little more. He turned to look up at Luther for the first time since he came inside, he didn't want his eyes to scare him. "I feel so fucking helpless. I'm in control of my sword, I have power over it. That gives me comfort, but it scares me. I tried to calm down, picture my parents and my happy memories, but it didn't give me any control. I'm losing control of my life and I can't do shit but stand by and watch it spin out of control." He said almost as if he were begging for a solution. "You know, even if you were going to use me to get the physical pleasure you couldn't get from Jerry, is that really so bad? It's not like you love me any less and that isn't treating me like a fucking toy, I understand why you would do that. You're only human and you have reactions to attractive people and it's not like I'm gonna turn down spending more time with you, I'm clingy. As long as were both okay with it, what's the problem? James needs to grow the fuck up and realize that if I had a problem with this I would have said something. I get that he's protective of me and doesn't want me to get hurt, but he has anger issues and over reacts instead of talking. And that says something coming from a guy that goes out and slaughters a forest full of critters when he's pissed." He tried to joke and lighten the mood.
He stood up after getting warm. "I hope he gets his shit together, soon. I hate to say it right now, but I miss him."
He wanted to hug Luther right now, but he looked down and remembered he was nude. "I better go get some clothes on before I freeze my ass off."
He smiled and gave Luther a kiss before running up to his room to get changed.
Luther sighed and sat by the fire. This was getting tiredsome he just wanted everyone to be okay with everything, but he knew it was his fault. He hadn't even considered James when he started falling for JJ, but it couldn't be helped, He laid on the floor by the fire and fell asleep. He was exhausted. The only way he could tell his brother was alive was by the bond he had yet to sever. He could have earlier, but he didn't. He could have slept for years.
Erorn came back down to see Luther on the floor asleep. He went back up to Luther's room and knocked on the door. He opened it without waiting for an answer. "Hey uncle Jerry, come with me." He smiled and took a blanket off the bed. "What's going on?"
"You got a man down there that needs some love and comfort and I'm not the one he needs it from right now." Erorn said with a loving smile.
"Oh, Okay." Jerry said perking up a little bit. He followed Erorn down to the living room and he saw Luther passed out in front of the fire. The two of them picked him up and laid him on the couch. Jerry curled up next to luther and Erorn tossed the blanket over the two of them and then went back upstairs to bed. Jerry laid against the back of the couch and held Luther tight in his arms as he fell asleep with him.

TIME SKIP TWO WEEKS <3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luther was tired of waiting on James. He couldn't feel him and the bond was starting to slip away. He packed a few stuff then went into JJ's room did the same, and finally went to Erorn's room packing him a small bag before throwing it in the wagon. "Erorn get in the fucking wagon!" He yelled because he honestly didn't know where the damn kid went off to these days. He found JJ in the library looking cute as fuck. He stopped a moment and held his hand over his mouth. "Ugh... so adorable. I want to touch you all over and not at all at the same time." He said before grabbing his hand and dragging him to the wagon. "We are going to my mother's." He said.
Erorn was in the kitchen when he heard Luther yell. "I'm coming." He tried to yell back through a mouth full of sandwich. He got to the wagon seeing Luther dragging Jerry. "Your Mother's? You're taking us to meet your mother? Isn't that where James is?" He asked as he climbed into the wagon. "You got a map to get there? Not trying to be a smart ass, I just know your sense of direction isn't the greatest." He said trying to hid his smirk behind his sandwich.
Luther glared, "I do know where my momma lives. Okay?" He said pretending to be angry. He placed JJ next to him on the seat so he wouldn't jump away. "You stay there, okay baby?" He patted his head and rode off. It took almost half the day to get to his mother's house. It was just as big as Erorn's mansion. Luther sighed, "Home sweet home, boys." He said and got out, dragging JJ with him. Two body guards came up and stopped him before they realized who they were. They apologized and let them through. He could feel JJ's hands shaking. "Calm down, no one is going to kill you." He said. When he walked into the house his Mother was walking by. She looked over at the two shorter men first and glared a bit before looking up at the taller one and realizing it was her son. "My baby boy." She said softly. Her dress flowed around her. She cupped his face. "My have you grown, ugh... a darker version of your brother." She kissed his cheek. "It took you long enough to come see me. I mean... you did kill my husband too." She said, glaring softly at him. She looked down and blinked, like they were nothing but pets. "You really brough them?" She asked.
"Nice to see you too mother. Sorry for not coming sooner... painful memories and all." He said softly. SSe looked down at Erorn and JJ, "Yes... I brought them." He said. His mother walked over to Erorn and gently pushed his chin up so she could examine his face. "This one is cute... worth a good penny on the market. Your brother would do good to use him instead of hoarding him like a child." She glanced at JJ and sighed, "Why is the coward here? Did you drag the poor man here?" She laughed. "He is an old man who could be your father. I didn't think I raised my boys to be such..." She waved her hand in the air as if to catch the word. "Just keep them by your side. I don't need to kill one of my men because they get handsy with your pets. James is in your father's old study." She said and walked off.
He nodded and took the men's hand before walking to the study. He knocked twice, like his father always taught them, and walked in. "James..." He said softly. James had a small girl, no older than twenty, sitting in his lap as he did paper work. He looked up, unamused that they were here, "Can I help you three men?" He said with a monotone voice.
"We came to bring you back." Luther said.
James sighed and whispered something in the girl's ear. She nodded, smiling, and got up. She was tiny, a bit smaller than Erorn, and her hair was a dark red. She had freckles across her nose and she looked like an innocent child. She looked over at Erorn and smirked before walking out. "I am not going back. I have business here to take care of and I can't do that staying at that... house." He said. "Plus, since you decided to kill father I am the one who has to take responisbilty for things. So if that is all you can leave and go spend time with your mother." He said and blinked realizing he sounded like a nicer version of their father. "Just... go." He sighed.
Luther walked in front of his desk, "I am not leaving with out you. Who the hell was that girl? And why are you being this way?" He asked.
James didn't look up, "Well then I will just have to get my body guards to escort you three out. The girl is none of your concern. And I am not being any way. I am being a responsible adult." He said flatly.
"Really... by abandoning us?" Luther asked.
"Well originally I wasn't... I was going to come back, but I found no use in doing so. I have nothing there." He said.
Erorn glared at James. He knew better than to try to get physical. He didn't want to take the bait he was laying but he was hurt and he was just emotionally tired of all this drama queen bullshit. "Yeah, I'm nothing, a nobody. And Nobody loves you. Nobody is sorry for the shit that was said. Nobody understands that you loved me so much that you would hurt your own brother because you thought I was going to get hurt. Nobody wants you back." he said unable to look at James. He sighed. He didn't figure anythig would get through his skull past his ego, but he knew he had to try. "I know we all said some hurtful things, and I get that you thought Luther was going to use me. But instead of anyone bothering to talk to me and see how I felt about that, you assumed I was going to be hurt and you took it out on my uncle. I love you and I always will, but you hurt the other two people I love as well, so I got angry and I called you something terrible and I would take it back if I could. I understand if you hate me, I do too right now. We were all at fault on this, but if you hate me so much that you're going to refuse to come back, I'm sorry. I love you, but I'll leave if that's what you wish." He kept his head down. He knew he was rambling and he was past the point of tears. He was actually afraid that James wouldn't believe he was serious because he wasn't crying.
Jerry was too scared to say a word but he clung onto Luther's hand tightly as he stood there praying that James wouldn't kill him right then and there.
James looked up, not an ounce of emotion on his face, "Then go because I thought I made it obvious when I left." He said. Luther blinked back in confusion. He wasn't expecting James to actually break up with Erorn, but he understood too that being called a freak had set him back. It was bad enough he didn't like his eye. He had made the eyepatch a strong point and Erorn had torn that down. James turned his attention to JJ, "Seriously... a shaken dog. If I wanted to actually kill you I would have done it by now." He said. "Now get out." This time he sounded annoyed. A body guard that had been in the corner of the room started walking towards them. Luther glared at him before looking back at his brother, "You made me fucking try with Erorn. So I did... for you. And you can't even try with JJ? He is willing, James. WILLING. And what the fuck, you are just giving up on Erorn? After all this stuff you put us through just to throw him away like a used cloth? No... I won't accept it. I will leave with Erorn.." He walked over to JJ and pulled him in front if James desk. "But you will keep him and if you so much as lay a harmful finger on him I will beat the fucking shit out of you. You know exactly what I am capable of." The body guard stayed in place. Luther walked out, dragging Erorn with him. He told his mother the address they were at and that if she cared so damn much about him that she would make an effort to come see him. Then he placed Erorn in the wagon and rode off.
Jerry was left in shock. He didn't have a clue what to do, he just stood there. He didn't dare say a word to James, he trusted that he wouldn't kill him and he hoped that Luther was good on his threats. He understood what Luther was expecting, but he would have liked to have been let in on his plan. He got the courage to speak. "I didn't expect him to do that." Was all he was able to get out, but he still tried not to make direct eye contact with him.
Erorn was confused by the plan at first as well, but realize what he was doing soon after. The pain had finally become too much for him though. The fact that James was tossing him out like a piece of trash hurt like a knife to the chest. "He doesn't want me anymore. I fucked it up" he kept muttering to himself as he sat in the back of the wagon. The whole ride home he was in a state of devestated shock and seemed to be staring out into space at nothing. His eyes had tears running down like a leaking fauctet, but there was no sobbing. It was like his eyes knew more of what happened than his mind. Erorn felt broken, like his heart had finally been shattered into pieces too small to put back together. When they finally got home he looked like a zombie, an empty husk of a person with nothing living inside anymore. He had finally snapped like a switch had been turned off in his mind to turn off his emotions. He just stopped feeling so he didn't have to feel the pain.
James stared at Jerold like a child would stare at a useless toy. "And what exactly am I suppose to do with you? Just go... sit over there or something and stay out of my way." He said before continuing to work on his papers. The redheaded girl came back and looked at Jerold before going sit back on his lap. She said nothing, but she looked over at him like she would tear his throat out if he got too close to James. "Garnet, stop that." He said without looking up from his papers. She pouted, "Yes, Sir. But what are we going to do with him?" She asked. James sighed and leaned back. "He is asexual, nothing can be done with him. He was okay in the black market, but honestly a good bit of my men want to strangle the shit out of him. So it isn't like he could start that up again. Go have fun with him and let me get back to work." He said. She smiled and got up, walking to him. She yanked him up, "We are going to make you my pet." She said softly.
"Don't leave marks on him where it can be seen and make sure they heal pretty quickly." He said before they walked out. She took him to her room, which was like a little girl's room. "You have cause my James great pain... it is only right that you should endure some too, no?" She asked innocently.
When Luther and Erorn got home he went in the back to get him and saw a hollowed version of him. "Erorn..." He said softly as he climbed in. "He will come around... he is still hurt." He cupped his face. "You have to understand how deeply you hurt him. He wasn’t just going to get over this in a couple weeks.” He said trying to get him out of this state. “Please don’t leave me like this.” He begged.
Erorn looked blankly at Luther, his words barely getting through to him. He started to sob. He grabbed and hugged Luther “I’m sorry, I’m so damn sorry!” He cried into his shoulder. “I didn’t know how much that word would hurt him, would hurt you. He was treating Jerry like he was a freak, it was the first thing that came to mind. Fuck I’m an idiot! I’m a big fucking asshole!”
Jerry looked at Garnet. He pitied the girl stuck as James’ toy to be used. “I have done nothing to James, but it’s not like you’re the type to listen to someone like me, so do what you will. I will endure. I’ve been a coward all my life, I might as well act like a fucking man for the one I love. I don’t know what you expect from me, but I doubt you’ll be happy.” He stated dryly.
Luther held Erorn until he had stopped crying, “I know you didn’t know and I wish I could have stopped you from saying it. I wish I could go back in time and change everything and done it correctly, but we are just going to have to hope that what I have planned worked.” He said softly, pulling him into his lap and holding him until he was ready to move.
Garnet smirked, “Oh no…I won’t start off with hurting you just yet.” She smiled and sat on his lap. “Hmm... it must suck not being able to get it up. I mean… from what I know Luther is a very sexual man. I wonder how long he will last before he gets tired of you. I mean… your nephew is the younger and useful version of you. Let’s be real… I would rather him too. Also.. I find it kind of creepy that he looks more like you than his own father.” She plucked a grape from the bowl on the table and ate it before lifting his chin, “You have been naughty, hm?” She smiled evilly.
Jerry almost laughed at the implication of him being the Erorn’s father. “You don’t know much of love do you? There are more things to a relationship than sex. While it is… irritating that nothing has ever managed to give me the arousal that so many take for granted. I honestly don’t blame you, Erorn is a very cute young man, I wouldn’t blame Luther for getting with him if I were able to get it up. But I believe that Luther loves me and that’s why our relationship works. Has anyone ever loved you? Not just family, but like a real boy friend? You do realize James isn’t your boyfriend right? You’re just as much his toy as I am yours, more so actually. You’re willingly being his toy and you’re useful to him, for now. What do you think he’s going to do with you when he’s done?” Jerry asked, his tone still dry.
Erorn couldn’t bring himself to look Luther in the eyes. He felt so guilty. He looked down at his feet as Luther held him “I hope your plan works too. It worked on you at least, but James is a lot more stubborn than you are. I feel bad for Jerry, it’s not going to be easy for him.” He sighed “We should probably go inside.” He took Luther’s hand and walked back into the house. With just the two of them it felt as empty as Erorn felt inside. “I love you. I always want you to know that. Please, if I start to slip away like that again, remind of that. It should help to pull me back.” He told Luther “Is there anything I can do to help you? I know you’ve got to be dying inside right now too.”
Garnet blinked unphased, “You think I am stupid enough to think James was my boyfriend? I don’t want a boyfriend I want a master… and I got that. Thanks for trying though, old man. Plus who gives a shit about love. It just ruins people… I mean look at what it did to my poor James. And what about you… your track record for keeping anyone is… well short.” She smiled and played with his hair. “What a waste... “ She sighed. “Does your relationship work? I mean… Luther left you in the lion’s den for his brother to chew you up and spit you right back out. We all know what Luther is capable of… my sister has seen it first hand and it is still talked about.” She looked up at him, “You don’t even know what he has done… the people he has killed. Innocent ones too, for that fact. Anyway, like I said, he left you. Not saying if he was going to come back or not. You seemed to have looked shocked when he did which means he didn’t even tell you.” She laughed. “Nothing comes between these brothers… you may have split them up for a bit, but they will get rid of you if you are too much trouble, which you are.” She got up and went looked through her closet. There was a mixture of men and women’s clothing. “You know James had me dress up as Erorn for some time.” She said smiling. “Funny how he threw away your nephew like he was trash.” She looked over her shoulder at him, “I guess your whole family was destined for failure.”
Luther nodded at him, “I will always bring you back. I don’t like being alone as much as you do.” He said softly. He thought about it, “Not really… I thought I was going to be okay with this plan, but now I am second guessing myself.” He laughed nervously. “I know that girl and her family… they aren’t… uhm the nicest people around. Well I mean they can be if they like you enough, but if Garnet gets to him…” He sighed. “I have to believe that he still loves you and that he is figuring out that he wants us and not whatever is in that house. And I have to believe he wouldn’t hurt Jerold too much.” He looked away, “I just hope he doesn’t die from being so damn scared.”
Jerry had all but stopped listening to her. He knew she wasn’t lying about any of what she was saying, but giving her words any value was more than she deserved. He had finally manned up. “I have no doubt that Luther has done some terrible things. I don’t know if he’s coming back or not. You’re right about all you’ve said. But I don’t care. If he comes back for me and things work out, great. If he doesn’t, if he and James can’t work anything out, if I’m nothing more than an obstacle for them to overcome, that’s fine too because I had a few good days with Luther. Even if they were to kill me right here and now I got far more from Luther than I ever fucking deserved. I’m a vile coward and I can’t escape the shit I’ve done in my life to save my own fucking skin. I deserve to die. Nothing you can do to me is anything I don’t deserve. I won’t play the victim here. I care for Luther more than anything, but I won’t pretend that I deserve him. I’m not worth the trouble he’s putting into this whole thing, but it’s not like I could ever convince him of this. So like I said do what you’re going to do, I just don’t care.” He sighed at her.
Erorn sighed. “I hope you’re right. I’d hate to lose both of them.” He turned to Luther. “I’m not really looking to be alone either. Would you sleep in my bed tonight?” He asked, his voice soft yet raspy. He needed the warmth of the one person who still loved him. He went to build a fire in the living room, the house was cold and drafty without anyone keeping the fires lit. He tried to keep his mind off of what was
going on so that he wouldn’t fade away again.
Garnet grabbed a suit that would look good on him and walked back to Jerold before giving him the suit. “Wear it.” She commanded. She sat in her chair and watched, “Again… a waste. That’s okay… I have special sugar cubes that can make you less wasteful.” She smirked evilly. “But that will come later. Just hope you like being called daddy. Now chop chop, I don’t have all day and you have people to meet.” She said while playing with a curl.
Luther held him close after he lit the fire, “Let me tell you the story of my people.” He laughed while dragging him into his lap. “My family has been in the black market business since the black market became.... You know the black market. That is all we have ever known. My family was one of the top sellers and most likely because my so many greats grandfathers were all like my father. Brutal fucks who gave no shit about anyone but the money. Well… except for a few of my uncles. They are still in business and aren’t so much like my father. Stern, yet wield a tender hand. Anyway, James was like that for a long time… a brutal fuck. He did his job for the money and pleasure. He couldn’t have cared less about the clients. He was pretty much like the way he is now. Except he didn’t have Garnet by his side. I don’t know what that is all about.” He frowned, he didn’t want to bring up Garnet. They were practically all over each other when they walked in. “Either way, he is slipping back to that point of only caring about the money, except this time he seems to have put me on the things to not care about. So I left Jerold… in hopes that he will still cling on to caring about someone. Protect someone who isn’t family. And if he can do that then we can have hope he will come back to us.”
Jerry put the suit on as he was told. He raised an eyebrow at the comment about sugar cube that could help him. “I’ve tried a lot of things; herbs, drugs, even consulting with witches. If you have something that can wake the sleeping thing in my pants, I may have to buy some off of you when this is over. If I’m still alive that is.” He tried not to sound too excited. After he was completely dressed, he stood in front of her. “So what now?”
Erorn listened intently like a child being told a bedtime story. He wrapped his arms around Luther and held onto him. “That story needs a happier ending.” He tried to lighten the mood, though he was still partly serious. He kissed Luther on the cheek before laying his head on his shoulder. He closed his eyes and was finally starting to calm down. He was glad that he was light and not too heavy to be on Luther’s lap. He soon fell asleep.
Garnet watched and looked over him as he undressed. “Not a bad body for an old man.” She said and stood up. “Now what shall we do with you. I can’t put you with anyone because you don’t like sex.” She puffed her cheeks out. “You do look good in that suit. And you wouldn’t take my happy sugar cubes?” She sighed. “Well sit down and we can have tea together.” She said and peeked her head out the door. She told her guard to go get tea and some finger sandwiches before coming back to sit down. “Now… I don’t usually torture my dolls until after a day or so, but you look so ready for it.” She giggled.
Jerry was trying not to let the situation get to him, but this girl was out of her mind. He didn’t dare question her. He wondered what kind of sugar cubes she had and if they would work for him to be with Luther. He sat down as he was told and gave her an uneasy smile. “I don’t know what you plan to do, but it can’t be anything I don’t deserve. I have a reason to endure, regardless of what you tell me or how you try to make me turn against him.” he said with a hint of defiance in his voice that shocked even him.
She leaned over the table and giggled, “I saw how you got interested when I talked about my special sugar cubes, but don’t worry, You will never get to taste those, but I guess it wouldn’t harm you to know what they do. I usually slip them in my male doll’s tea.” She giggled, “It springs them right up.” She said before crawling on the table towards him and sitting down in front of him. “Would it be better if I torture Luther? You see… I can always just get James in a rough and rowdy mood and bam! I can do whatever I want. If I wanted I could beg him to let Luther feel… he could be torture so sweetly. And your little nephew couldn’t do a thing about it.” She smiled.
Asham came with tea and sandwiches. She sat in Jerold’s lap as he set up the table. Once he was out she looked up at him, “The tea is hot… test it out... with your finger and don’t move it till I say so.” She giggled.
Jerry cringed at the thought of her torturing Luther. It wasn’t an option for him, he would do as she said no matter how depraved. He shrugged off the sugar cubes, he had tried many things in the past to no luck, so he just assumed her drugs wouldn’t work either. He stuck his finger in the tea. It was just below the boiling point. “SSSsssss” He breathed in sharply through clenched teeth. He kept it there waiting for Garnet to tell him to remove it.
She waited a moment before taking his finger out and sucking on it before placing his hand down on her lap. “Good job… you are going to make one fine doll indeed.” She said, tilting his chin up a bit. Then smirking. She went into her closet and produced a tin out. She showed him her sugar cubes. “You see these sweet little babies. One should would work fine on regular men. I would give you three… mmm but I would save that for later.” She took one of the knifes and sat down on the table in front of him. “Do you still feel pain if say… someone would stab it? I mean… you aren’t using it right?” She smiled and raised the knife up. James had walked in just in time.
“Garnet… what the fuck is going on?” He growled. She froze and slowly brought down the knife.
“I was just scaring him.” She said, looking at her doll instead of him.
James glared at both of them. “You aren’t allowed to seriously hurt him. I want you in my bed chambers tonight.”
Her eyes got wide and she turned to him, “But it is my ovulation week.” She said.
He turned around and glared at her, “And? Your point?” He asked. It was clear he didn’t care.
“I… you know I could.. You don’t use protection, James.” She said softly, looking down at the table.
“Again… your point is” He was getting annoyed.
“I… I don’t want kids.” She said softly.
He walked up to her, yanking her chin up to look at him. “Since when do I care what a simple pet like you does and does not want?” He asked.
Her body had tensed up, “N-Never.” She whispered.
He let go over her chin and looked at Jerold, “Good… now finish up with him and come meet me.” He said. James walked out and left her there almost as broken as her doll. It took her a moment to gather herself. “You sleep here, with me. Eat and drink as much as you wish. If you want something more ask Asham outside my door.” She said before rushing off to James’ chambers. Three days after James came back home she was visiting his mother. On her way to leave she bumped into him. The next day she moved into the Silverson Manor and became his pet. She loved it for the most part, except when he got angry. She knew he would be extra rough with her.
Garnet got undressed and slipped the green robe on before lying in his bed. James came in moments later and began stripping. He looked annoyed, probably because of his brother coming over with the two twerps. He walked over to her and yanked her to the edge of the bed. She smiled up at him like the good pet she was. “Since when do I care?” He growled.
“Never.” She whispered.
Jerry let out a sigh of relief after Garnet left. He wasn’t thrilled by the idea of sleeping in the same room as her, but right now that was the least of his worries. She was just as much a toy as he was, but she was so screwed up she enjoyed it. He started questioning how James could have changed so easily from the sweet, caring person that Erorn loved, that he saw show that love hundreds of times in the four months that he’d been in the house, into the person who was here now. It was insane what a little pain could do to a person. He took a sip of the tea in the cup and realized how tired he was. He wasn’t going to assume that he would be allowed to sleep in her bed, so he curled up next to the fireplace and laid down before falling asleep.
When James dismissed her she went to shower. Her whole body ached, but the hot water on her skin made her feel a bit better. Her hand ran over her stomach. Would he throw her out once she got pregnant? Would he actually want her baby? She was so angry at him. She sat in the shower and hugged her knees to her chest as she let the hot water fall over her.
When she was done she slipped her robe on and went to her room. She looked at the old man sleeping by the fire and nudged him with her foot till he woke up. “What the fuck are you doing, idiot? Have you never had a pet?” She rolled her eyes. “Get in the fucking bed.” She said before getting dressed. Her bed was pretty big and could easily have their space. She climbed into her bed, the bruises were already starting to show on her skin. Garnet got under the covers and stared at the fire.
Jerry got up. “Sorry, I wasn’t sure what kind of pet I was supposed to be. I never let my dog sleep in the bed and I didn’t want to assume.” He didn’t know why he was apologizing and explaining himself. He saw her bruises in the fire light and for a moment he forgot how crazy she was and just saw the girl that was hurting in front of him. “Is he always that rough with you?” He asked for some reason he found himself concerned for her. He noticed how she seemed to wince with pain as she got into bed. His instinct was to hold her, but he fought that urge and just crawled into the bed on the opposite side after stripping down to his boxers.
She didn’t look at him, “Pets shouldn’t be concerned with the affairs of their master, but not this rough.” She said. He made the bed warm once he got into her bed. “I think it was because I said something about not wanting to get pregnant and that you and your goons came over. I like when he is rough, but there is always passion behind it. This time… it was like he just wanted…” She sighed. “It doesn’t matter. Just be lucky I am not like him” She said and closed her eyes.
Jerry felt a little bit of guilt for coming over. Not that it was his idea. He didn’t think there was much he could do to help her. He closed his eyes and went to sleep. The bed was more comfortable than he was expecting, but it just seemed to be empty since he wasn’t at home.
She turned over to him after a while and saw him sleeping. “Stupid old man.” She whispered as she pushed his hair out of his face. “You know nothing…” She whispered before turning back around and falling asleep.
She was the first one up. She had gotten ice and crawled back into bed before putting it in his pants.
Luther woke up for a minute, pulling Erorn close to him, before going back to bed. He wasn’t going to let this one go.
Jerry woke up after a few seconds. “For fuck sake I can still feel it.” He called out as he jolted upright. He hoped that this wasn’t how she planned to wake him up every morning.
Erorn grinned when he felt Luther pulling him close. It made him feel safe. He turned to face Luther and held onto him tight as well. He nuzzled his face into Luther’s chest and let his heartbeat lul him to sleep again.
Garnet giggled, “Well now I know you can feel something. I don’t think you need three sugar cubes after all. Plus, isn’t that better than stabbing it?” She asked. “Now get ready for breakfast. Your clothes are over there. I put them in your own closet.” She said and popped the ice in her mouth. She was wearing clothing that covered her bruises. If she was sore she didn’t act like it, but she was indeed sore. Sitting was a pain. “Dress slowly and face me.” She said and laid back on her bed.
Luther woke up sometime later and frowned, “I felt James a tad bit last night, but I feel nothing now.” He sighed and kissed Erorn’s neck before tickling him and pinning him down. “Hmm to tickle you till you beg for me to stop or not?” He thought about it and tickg
Jerry did as he was told and dressed slow into the outfit she set out for him. “Yes that was much better than cutting, and on a completely unrelated topic, please tell me we’re not having sausage for breakfast.” He chuckled. He figured that keeping her happy and laughing would keep him on her good side and the torture to a minimum.
Erorn Laughed and let Luther tickle him longer than he normally would have, it felt good to laugh in all of this so he took advantage of it. He finally started to beg Luther to stop tickling him. He sat up in the bed and looked into his eye and kissed him passionately. He could feel the worry even without an emotional link. “I’m never going to leave you.” He whispered in Luther’s ear. “I’ll do everything I can not to drift away like last night, now that I know how much it hurt you.” He pulled Luther out of bed and downstairs to make him breakfast.
She sighed, “Of course we are, silly pet. I hear you like the links.” She smiled and watched him. “What a shame you are letting that great body waste away.” She said pouting. “I should leave little scars all over it. Make it look like you actually did something in your life besides run.” Garnet said and go up. She put a gold collar around his neck and added a golden chain. “Come on now…” She said and yanked his chian enough to make him lunge forward a bit. She walked him to the dining room where James and his mother were eating.
“Well I see you are taking this pet thing seriously.” His mother said.
“Yes ma’am. Doesn’t he look cuter with the collar?” She asked.
His mother smiled and nodded. James scuffed. “If you think so.” He said and finished his plate before leaving. If anyone had paid close attention they would have seen the look on her face. She wanted him to stay and eat with her.
Luther smiled, “good. I would die…” He said dramatically before following him. He sat on the countertop and watched. “You know I could just have you for breakfast and it would be enough.” He smirked and got down, leaning over and gently biting his ear.
Jerry looked to Garnet and couldn’t believe the words he was about to ask. “Am I allowed to eat at the table or would the lady prefer me to eat on the floor?” he asked almost choking on the humiliation.
Erorn laughed at Luther’s comment about eating him. He tried to focus on not burning the pancakes and other food, but Luther nibbling on his ear was driving him crazy. “Mmm.” He moaned.
Garnet blinked while James’ mother giggled. “You really don't know how to be a pet.” She laughed softly as she turned to look at him. “I wouldn't have denied you a seat at the table, but now you have put the thought in my head. But I won't let an old man sit on the floor to eat. Sit at the table.”
Jerry said nothing and ate at the table. He couldn’t figure out how James’ mom could sit by and watch weird shit like this, but then she seemed to just as messed up in the head as everyone else in that house. He didn’t understand why Luther thought she could help get James in the right frame of mind when she seemed to just go along with all his crazy whims.
