growled with venom.
“How dare you do
that. I don’t give a fuck how angry you are he looks like your ex.
You had no reason to hurt him. He’s done nothing but been loyal to
you, Renee. Jess and I swore to your mother we would always be here
for you and she would spank your ass till it bled for doing what
you did for no reason.” Jessica let go when her wife wouldn’t
attack, but kept scolding her niece. “Oliver is learning at a rate
I’ve never seen, not even by the Creelin. But he’s still mentally
just a toddler. You are lucky he is attached to you. If he wasn’t,
imagine what he’d do?” Renee held her swelling, bright red cheek,
but slowly the words sank in. “Oh, you didn’t think that far ahead
huh? You and I both saw what he did to the Salamander as skin and
bones. He’d deadly.
    “ Worse, you’ve gave him
strength that puts even Stone to shame and that is saying
something. He’s a child with a loaded blaster. You never considered
he wouldn’t fly into a tantrum. You saw how he reacts to threats,
hell, you figured it out first. He’s connected to you and I don’t
care how much you deny it, it is a fact ! Oliver will learn, but what if
he learns the wrong way? Huh? He could have easily have raped me
and I wouldn’t have resisted, but didn’t. He’s massive. I think he
should keep his natural kindness because if we aren’t careful he
could be more than
a danger to himself.”
    “ She’s right, Sweetheart.
Don’t let your scorned heart ruin an untouched individual with
malice.” Jessica stood next to her wife. “Your temper gets the
better of you, but you can’t influence Oliver wrongly because you
know what my brother will do, without hesitation, to Oliver if he
endangers the crew. Now get up and collect yourself. Oliver isn’t
ready to see our family squabble.”
    Barely had she regained her feet did the
bathroom door slide open and Oliver lithely stepped out massaging
his groin and not looking at Renee with the same wonder he had
before. He was afraid of her and the setting of his jaw indicated
he wasn’t going to say anything wrong to upset her and feel her
wrath again.
    It cut her more deeply than thinking he was
alone to be avoided when he just wanted innocent closeness. Before
the other three said anything Renee moved in his path. He stopped,
but wouldn’t meet her gaze. She wounded him and needed to make
amends even though her jaw smarted and burned still. “Oliver, would
you understand the meaning is I told you I was sorry.”
    “ Yes.” He didn’t look up.
“Sparky said it is a way to reconcile wrong doings you wish to take
back and cannot, but feel a tightness in the chest like I do and
know it means you want it to go away… and the only way is to
apologize and work together to overcome the obstacle that caused
pain. Do you feel weight here too?” He rubbed his chest.
    “ Of course I do.” And meant
it. “I truly am sorry for being mad and doing it. Even though I am
regretful, did you learn why?”
    “ I need to protect it like I
did for you against the creature that made you scream. Rubbing my
penis felt good going gently. I found when feeling good turns to
pain I do not like. It is why I took longer to get
dressed.”
    “ Hold on. You just tested
your pain threshold?” he looked to Sparky for a flicker and nodded
when things cleared up. Taking chance, he met her gaze. “Does it
still hurt?”
    “ Not as much as my head
hitting the ceiling.” He turned and showed a red welt on the back
of his skull. “But is not as bad as not urinating was earlier… Why
is half your face red?” looking at his twitching hand she knew he
badly wanted to touch.
    “ Don’t mind it. Do you
accept my apology?” he again sought Sparky’s aid in a flash to nod.
“Shake on it.” With a gentleness she didn’t expect, he took hers
and she hid a laugh, knowing Jessica told him how to do
it.
    “ Let us change the subject.”
Proposed Jessica as she asked “Oliver, may I add you
