Althena Book 2

35. No Promises

We get back to the room and Mike and Monte are sitting at the table.

Cyrus sits beside me. "We're going to have to order dinner. Nobody started anything."

Drogon comes in last with his laptop. "I got the pictures. You have to see this."

"Were you guys at this animal thing?" Monte's looking through pamphlets.

Drogon nods. "We're doing it tomorrow too."

"They need to go back to school."

Drogon shakes his head. "We've been up for 3 hours today."

Conner nods. "I'm already exhausted. Feels like I've been up for 3 days."

Cyrus puts his arm on the back of my chair. "The puking may stop, but the exhaustion holds on for days. I don't know how the hell you 2 ran out of here like that."

Monte gives him a dirty look. "Someone had too, and we're adults. You can go to work tomorrow. I'll stay with them."

Lila sits her phone down. "I have to go home. My parents are making me go to school."

Drogon picks up his phone. "Someone order dinner. Tell them, we'll send you after dinner."

"Ok."

"Look at this." Drogon spins his laptop around. It's the dolphin kissing my cheek. I have the biggest smile.

Mike smiles. "Please tell me you bought that."

"I bought the rights to all the pictures. They are good."

"How much was that?"

"$750 a kid. The pictures were $50 each for an 8 by 10. They took about 50 pictures each. It was worth it."

"Hell yeah it was." Mike takes the laptop and scrolls through them. "I want to go tomorrow too."

"Can I put that picture on the thing on my phone?"

Cyrus blinks a couple of times and looks like he's thinking. "Evotech?"

"Yea. That place."

Drogon nods. "Sure, baby. We'll sit down tomorrow after we get them all, and you can pick a couple."

"Oh yeah." Clayton looks up. "Nobody post us in anything tomorrow. We're supposed to be home when we're sick."

Monte gets up and answers the door. The doctor and resort people come in. They sit some food down.

The doctor nods. "Is everyone able to eat and drink?"

"Yea, we're good. We're just exhausted now."

"That part seems to hold on, but there's nothing I can do about it. Relax for another day or two and you'll all be fine."

Mike shakes his hand and walks him out. Then he comes back and sits with his food. "Well, thank you for babysitting, Cyrus. Everyone smells like they're supposed to. Good job."

Lila and I glance at each other and try not to laugh while we eat. We get about half done and Clayton's head hits the table. He is sound asleep.

"Oh yeah, I need to call Mary." Drogon gets his phone back out.

Mike nods. "Tell her I got him a doctor's note for tomorrow."

I shake my head. "Boys, you can't leave him like that."

Cyrus rolls his eyes and pulls him up. "I'll get him. Come on, Clayton. You can't sleep in a wet swimsuit. Put on pajamas and you can go to bed."

"I'll get your blanket." Lila follows them out.

I shrug my shoulders. "He needs babied. He's only 16."

"Lila got her stuff out of that room and I had the resort clean it. So, Monte, you can take that room. I'll stay with the woman. Everyone else can stay where they're at for tonight."

Conner nods. "That works. I need to sleep too."

"That dolphin park opens at 7. Set your alarm early."

"I will. 12 hours of sleep should be good."

They laugh as Conner and Drogon leave.

Cyrus comes back as I'm finishing my food. "I put Lila on a helicopter. Clayton's in bed. The other two were headed to bed."

Mike nods. "How did they do last night?"

"Fine. Mostly slept."

"Why does your room smell like Thena?"

"She fell asleep on me. I went straight to bed."

Mike makes eye contact with me. "Did you sleep in his room?"

"No. I haven't been in that room."

"Good. Keep it that way." He goes back to flipping through pictures.

"You can't tell me what to do."

He looks at me over the laptop and a shiver goes down my spine. "You're right, I can't. You do what you want, babygirl. I'll clean up the mess." He winks, and his eyes go back to the screen.

I jump up and point at him. My aura comes out. I try to yell at him, but he's right. He always deals with everything and fixes it. He always makes sure I'm ok. I cross my arms. "I guess that is what you do."

He nods and spins the laptop around. "Look at this picture."

I'm hugging the dolphin. I smile and sit back down. "That dolphin loves me. The trainer said it. He really does love me. He said they don't always like everyone though. There's nothing they can do if they don't like someone. And dolphins are the smartest animals on the planet."

He smiles. "I've heard that before, too. They can remember people and everything. You think he'll remember you?"

"I doubt it. He probably meets lots of people."

"That's true. Did you get anything in the gift shop?"

"No. We ran out of time. But they have a river. You can snorkel through the whole thing. Fish glow in the cave."

"You'll have to show me that. I've never heard of such a thing. But we have to have breakfast ready by 6:30 if you want to be there at 7. We should head to bed too, or we'll be late."

I run to my room.

"PUT THAT SWIMSUIT IN THE WASHER."

"OK."

He comes in when I'm taking it off. "I'll help you, babygirl. You need to take a shower too."

"I don't want to get my hair wet."

"We'll skip your head and get it good tomorrow night." He kisses the back of my neck and unties the bows on the back of my top.

I relax as his hands massage my boobs. Then I untie the bows on the bottoms. I turn and kiss him as they fall to the ground.

"I love it when you're naked, baby."

"I love it when you're naked too. But you have a whole suit on." I unbutton his shirt as he tosses his jacket on the chair.

"I will fix that." He unhooks his belt, then kicks his shoes off.

I undo his pants and feel his d**k throb through them. I can't help myself. I drop to my knees and pull it out. "Mine." I put it in my mouth before he can react.

His pants fall and he takes off his shirt while I suck it. "All yours, babygirl. But I want to c*m in that little p***y. Don't get him going too much."

I let it pop out and I smirk. "No promises."

He smiles and picks me up. "Bath first. I need you screaming later."
