Chapter 546
Damien straightened and looked at Bane, who just looked amazed. “We apologize, Warriors, if we have offended you,” Tyle said cautiously, crossing his left arm over his chest and bowing his head.
Damien regained control first and assured the boys nothing was wrong. He explained the position had just reminded me of something. I was merely surprised, nothing more. He encouraged them to continue what they had been doing. No apology was necessary.
The activity continued and Bane kept staring at Aryn. I knew what he felt. That boy was his to know as he had Hannah and Kennedy. He had been kept from something special his Brothers had experienced. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
We stood in the field and I learned some of the basics of wrestling. Bane was so distracted Kein ended up doing most of the teaching. The young boys seemed to notice, but they didn’t let it stop them from doing as the Warriors asked.
When we were done and it was time to go home I saw the Longing on Bane’s face. He wanted to spend more time with Aryn. It was obvious to me. It must have been obvious to Damien also.
“In three day cycles we have a trip planned,” Damien said.
“We have reserved a cabin and we will stay there for several day cycles. It would be a pleasure if you boys would join us. We will ask the Child Keepers if we may Keep you those days, if you are willing.”
The elation I saw on those young faces was like being told they were going to Disney World. Tyle’s family had never been asked to be Kept by Warriors before. The boys were ecstatic.
“We will train you some, if you would like,” Bane promised staring down at his son.
“Yes, sir, we would enjoy that,” Tyle answered politely grinning ear to ear.
It wasn’t until our shower that night I had a horrible thought.
“Are we breeding at the cabin,” I asked panicked. “That would be very odd to do with five young boys watching. Please, tell me this isn’t a breeding time.”
“Of course not,” Evan said cleaning my hair.
“Nu-reeh has put off your breeding time,” Damien informed me. “She does not want…more family for us right now. Our Mistress will not schedule that until she has time. You do not need to worry, we know this talk upsets you.”
He sounded a little irritated for some reason. I just shrugged and let them pamper me in the shower. They knew I was working hard and my baths were half massage at this point. It was hard to stay stressed during this time.

My mind wandered during the bath, perhaps Nu-reeh was giving me something in my drink to prevent conception. It was the sweet tasting one, so I wasn’t sure. I had not gotten the shot, either. We should probably talk about it, because otherwise the inevitable would happen.
I knew the men weren’t trying to get me pregnant, but they adored sex. We still had plenty of it. Damien considered the nightly distraction part of my therapy. Although I rolled my eyes at his logic frequently, I couldn’t dispute how good they made me feel.
As Evan rinsed my hair my internal musing was interrupted when Bane got all our attention. The big man slammed his fist into the wall of the shower. The water shuddered with the force of his blow. Christof jerked me away and placed my damp body behind Damien.
“Calm, big Brother,” Kein soothed inching closer to Bane, “you will know the boy. We will see to it. We will treat him as family now that we know.”
“How much more family do we have?” Bane asked harshly.
“How many others have been kept from us? We should have known them. I should have guided him…”
Damien spoke low and forcefully. He reminded Bane he was the best trainer in the ranks of the Warriors. Bane had been taking care of that young man for most of his life. The lessons he taught him would last all his days.
