The hivemind is conquering for me?

The elevator dinged open and outwalked Elias with a chipper smile on his face. For the past two weeks, he had heard nothing about his Lady Sophia as she had been away on business and now she had personally called him to tell him she would be back in a few hours and to start prepping food for her and her sister.

Elias was more than happy to do so as watching two beautiful women eat the food he had made was so rewarding to him. He was especially excited as things would be back to normal as just before Sophia went on her work trip, the freeloading man who was cheating on her was presumably kicked out.

As Elias made his way through the apartment, he suddenly heard a noise upstairs. He paused a moment to make sure it was not his imagination and sure enough, he heard another noise.

Elias was not a brave man in the sense that he would not go and confront a home intruder himself. Instead, he quietly made his was to the kitchen, grabbed a meat tenderiser and proceeded to click on the building communicator.

He directed the call directly to security and before they could speak, he did. “There is an intruder in lady Sophia’s apartment. Send someone armed to get them out! Hurry!” He then stopped communication and hid in the walk in freezer until they arrived.

Downstairs in security, a man and a woman sat together. After hearing the call in, they looked at each other with a questioning look. “Does Elias have clearance to make a call to us like that?” The man asked the woman. The woman responded with. “No, but that does not matter, an intruder in m- in the ladies apartment should be met with full hostility.”

The woman had to hold back her wording as she glanced at the metal arm of her partner for the day. “Well lets get up there then. If it is an intruder, I’ll give them a nice shave.” The man said as he flicked his metal arm outwards and a sword sprang out from in between his middle finger and his ring finger.

As the elevator dinged open once more this morning, out came a man and a woman wearing ‘liberated’ and repurposed Phalanx gear while the woman wielding a laser rifle, the man was holding a hand cannon while his sword arm was outstretched to his side.

Having somehow heard the elevator from his hiding spot, Elias came running out of the kitchen with his meat tenderiser still in his hand. Upon witnessing him, both members of the security team aimed their weapons at him, causing him to stop dead in his tracks. “No don’t shoot its me! I called you guys!” He whisper yelled in panic.

The man and the woman looked at each other before lowering their weapons away from the cowering man. “Where is the intruder you spoke about?” The man said low and calmly. “Upstairs, I heard some movement and a shutting of a door.”

“And you are sure it is not one of Sophia’s assistants?” The man pressed. “Positive, at this hour only I should be up here and from the location of the sound, it sounded like it came from Sophia’s room and no one is allowed in there without permission.” Elias answered while taking glances to the upstairs area.

The woman scratched the patch of scales on her cheek, which she claims to be a birth defect, and said. “That is a good point, lady Sophia is very adamant about that. Be guns ready.” She said to her partner, who flashed a wicked smile.

The two security agents began making there way though the apartment and eventually up the stairs, leaving Elias by the elevator doors. Once at the top of the stairs, they noticed that Sophia’s bedroom door was open a jar and the sound of running water could faintly be heard.

They moved closer to the door and took point just outside of it. The two gave each other a look and then nodded as they quietly moved in. The sound of running water was louder now as the door to the bathroom was open and the shower was clearly running. The two edged the wall of the room and spotted a figure lying on the bed.

The man was impatient and a little trigger happy, so actually witnessing an intruder he shouted. “You in the bed, sit up now or I will unload upon you!”

I opened my eyes. “Ugh, who is shouting?” I asked in a daze as I leant upright.

The man had not expected a naked man in his boss’ bed for some reason and proceeded to turn off the safety on his hand cannon. He was about to fire on the intruder, when a fist caught the edge of his eyeline before everything went black.

Not sure if what I was seeing was actually real, I rubbed my eyes and opened them again. Sure enough a large 6ft4 muscle woman had just knocked out her friend who had a gun pointed on me the second I woke up. “Um, hi?” I said in confusion.

The woman stared dazed at me for a second before she knelt down on one knee and said. “Forgive me Apollo for the intrusion, we had a call saying an intruder was inside of Sophia’s apartment. I had no idea you were back and I am so sorry that my partner and I held you at gunpoint. Please forgive me, but if you can’t I request a merciful death at your hands for a final pleasure in my life.”

I blinked at the woman a few times before I responded. “I am sorry, but I am going to need a minute. This is a lot of weird to wake up to.”

In my sleepy state, I had not realised the shower had been on and turned off as Onyx walked out of the bathroom with a towel only over her head. “Oh my universe you are awake I need help with- oh who is this?” Onyx had gotten some water in her stupid humanoid ears and was disoriented so she could not hear the intruder from the next room.

I had woken up a slight bit more at this point and responded. “That is a good point, I just woke up and these two had guns pointed at me. However, upon noticing who I was, this kind lady knocked out her partner and proceeded to tell me that we were identified as intruders in the apartment.”

“You Dare threaten my universe hybrid? Are you prepared for death?” Onyx said as she glared at the woman who was kneeling. “Yes stalker-caste.” The woman said as she bowed her head.

Onyx felt proud of the cultist for accepting her fate and was about to slit her throat open before her beloved spoke. “Whoa, whoa, whoa, nobody is dying this early, geez. Honestly it’s sometimes like your gigantic hive brains are empty with how you act.”

The words cut deeper into the two females present than any knife Onyx would have used on the woman.

“So let me get this straight.” I said, standing up and rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. ” You and your partner here were told there was an intruder in this apartment. You had no idea I was here so you understandable took all precautions and entered the home armed?”

I stopped a moment waiting for the woman who was kneeling to speak. She was to focused on looking on the ground to prevent herself from sneaking a peak that she forgot to answer. “Our mate asked you a question hybrid, answer him!” Onyx snapped.

“Onyx!” I snapped back as the stalker proceeded to look at me in shock and stepped back quivering.

“I-I-I-I, yes that is what happened.” The woman eventually stammered out.

“Fucking hive shares one braincell I swear.” I muttered under my breath. “So in conclusion, you are deeply sorry for doing your job correctly and want me to kill you for the exact same reason?”

The woman felt she was hit with a bolt of lightning upon the very obvious realisation. Before she could say anything however, I spoke once more.

“Stand up.” I stated and the woman hesitated a moment before doing so. I proceeded to circle her like a shark before meeting her at the front again. I then grabbed her softly by the chin and tilted it to the side, so I could look properly at the mutation on her face. freewёbnoνel.com

“What is your name?” I asked. “Farah.” She whispered. “So Farah, how far along are you to becoming close to conversion?” I continued. “S-Samantha said another 5 years Fa-Apollo.” Farah whispered meekly.

“Hmm.” I hummed. “Well I am not going to forgive you for doing your job that would be silly. Doing your job properly deserves a reward. Now you are a little to butch for my tastes, so this will have to suffice.”

I then leant in and kissed Farah on the cheek, right on her mutation, before placing another soft peck on her lips.

After I pulled away, Farah seemed to have froze up as her eyes had gone wide with surprise. I snapped my fingers in front of her and she was unresponsive.

“Hey, are you ok?”
