The hivemind is conquering for me?

”Is he fucking with me? He has to be fucking with me.” Serena muttered to herself as she tried and failed to ignore the sounds coming from the tent next to hers.

Whoever he was with, they had been at it for over three hours without stopping. She had no idea how they were going that long, any more than thirty minutes and she would have died from over sensitivity.

She would say that whoever he was with, they were fucking like animals. She couldn’t work in these conditions, she needed a break.

Going to her personal items, she pulled out her latest gift and smiled at it. Yes, she would do this for a while. Further away from her tent where she didn’t have to hear... That.

As she picked it up, she noticed the crystal communicator in her personal belongings and had a thought. ’Hmm, I probably should.’

Picking up the communicator, she activated it and sent out a call that was accepted very quickly.

”Serena? It’s not like you to call me, what is up? How goes the war?” Valerica asked cheerfully.

”Hey sis, are you busy?” Serena replied, getting quick confirmation.

”Oh, nah. I am just in the middle of a class. The weaklings could do with a break anyway. What’s up?”

Serena shook her head. Valerica was something else... ”The war is going well. We are on our way to finishing it up months before expected. I just thought I would let you know that Apollo is back and-”

”-Is he safe? Is he there? Put him on! Apollo! It’s Mommy! Talk to me baby! My one and only! I have been so worried! Are you alright? Are you hurt? Do you need me to come and pick you up? Hold on. I’ll be right there! I just have to-”

”-Valerica! Apollo isn’t in the room with me.” Serena yelled, instantly matching her sisters energy.

”He isn’t?” Valerica asked, betrayed. ”But you just told me he was!”

”No, I said he was back from his campaign. He is... Indisposed right now. Getting out some tension.” Serena said respectfully, Valerica however...

”Oh, so he is fucking? How long has he been at it?” She asked, like it was a normal question to ask.

”V-Valerica. That is beyond inappropriate. How would I know?” Serena replied, but just got silence on the other end until she whispered. ”A few hours...”

”Aww~ I was hoping to be able to talk to him, but my son is very potent in the bedroom. He won’t be done for a few more hours at least. Probably longer if he needs to release all that tension... Wait!” Valerica suddenly changed her tone and became hostile.

”Sister. You haven’t touched my son have you?”

”What?!?” Serena yelled a bit too loud. ”Of course not! Who do you take me for? Some harlot?”

”Slut with twelve kids says what?”

”What?”

”What?”

...

...

...

”So you haven’t touched my one and only?” Valerica asked again and Serena replied,

”No. I haven’t.” She failed to bring up that with her jumbled thoughts earlier, she was prepared to, but thought better of it for obvious reasons.

”Good.” Valerica replied. ”Because no other skank in our family is getting him. Do you understand he is mine- my daughters! Yes. Kathrine’s partner. No one else has a claim on him. If you touch him, I will kill you.”

”Valerica. I have no intentions of doing that, will you stop bringing that up? For better yet, why are you bringing that up?” Serena asked.

”Because I know how handsome my boy is. I know the effect he has on women and I know that if you have heard his partner over the last few hours, you know how good she is feeling. So don’t even think about attempting to seduce my son for another littler of fuck ups. Understood? He is mi- My daughters! Shit...”

Wanting to desperately change the subject, Serena did just that. ”Oh, by the way... Apollo gave me a particularly interesting gift earlier. I am-”

”-I knew it! You fucking slut! I am going to kill you!” Valerica raged, her voice yearning for blood to be shed.

”What? No! Valerica, listen! He gave me a gift he has given you. The family technique.”

”- I swear when you leave that war I am declaring civil war against you and purging your entire blood line and- Wait what?” Valerica suddenly paused her threats. ”He gave you what?”

”The improved technique. You know... The one you didn’t want to give me so you could overpower me the next time we fought?” Serena said, prompting Valerica to become silent for a few moments before asking,

”Why? What did you offer him in exchange? Did you suck him off?”

”Valerica? Why do you keep insinuating such vulgarities?” Serena asked, appalled.

”Because I know what you are actually like, sister. I know how you think. You think of yourself as a pure hearted woman who only had twelve kids for purpose. Who only fucks to further the family’s strength. But I know what you actually are, a deviant cock gobbler who hides behind so many layers of protocol and professionalism. But I bet the moment Apollo began speaking to you at some point and him being him accidentally said something vulgar without meaning to, as he does, your mind went straight to wanting to fuck him. Am I wrong?”

”Sister. I am not going to dignify that with a response.” Serena replied, though her face was beyond red at this point.

A silence lingered in the air for a few moments before Valerica spoke up. ”Ok then. I trust you, big sis. Going back on topic, I didn’t want him giving you the technique because I am proud of my son and wanted all the benefits for myself because he made it for me. Because he loves me more than anyone else in this family~ hehe. However, I understand he is just a massive softie. So I don’t mind you having it. But this is a core family technique and it is going to stay that way. During the next Hyllus gathering I am going to make our old technique the new standard for the second and third families. And the fourth and fifth will get the second and third and so on. As such our family will gain strength not seen in thousands of years. Do you agree with me on this ruling?”

”Naturally. I wish I could share with my own children, but I know their place. Don’t worry. I will keep it to myself.” Serena agreed.

”Good. Now some tips for you. The new technique really hurts, but you are like me and are a bit of a maso so it’s fine. Don’t try to exceed ten minutes for a while. I have only managed to get fifteen so far and I have not attempted it since. It really hurt just too much for my liking.”

”Yeah, Apollo said something similar about pain. I gave it a look over, what’s this about four hours before exploding though?” Serena asked, regarding a certain body exploding section.

”Ha! Yes. I had the same question for Apollo the first time I saw it. So, you know how amazing my son is, correct?”

...

...

...

”Oh, you were waiting for an answer? Yes, I am aware.” Serena said, prompting Valerica to continue.

”Hehe~ Well, he is more amazing than you think. Due to his special science. My boy was able to create homunculi to test the family technique on and they survived four hours before they exploded. Though those were non enhanced bodies, so we are probably fine if we ever reach that threshold.”

Serena blinked in shock. ”I’m sorry? Did you just say Apollo was able to create life from nothing?”

Valerica began giggling. ”Well technically he said that with them having no Psionic existence or brain functionality they weren’t actually alive, but fuck that. Yes. The son I gave birth to is able to create life at his whim. How incredible is he?”

Her voice then became enriched with smugness as she asked. ”Tell me sis, what have your children accomplished that can come close to what mine has done? Hmm? Truly my genes have a quality over quantity for childbearing compared to yours.”

Serena gasped at what her own sister just said, the nerve and the audacity the- ”Wait birthed?” She suddenly realised. ”Valerica Apollo is your adopted son. The only child you have birthed is Kathrine and we both know that she-”

...

After thirty minutes of arguing back and forth over pretty much anything and everything, Serena finally turned off her communicator and sat down in her chair. This had been the most stressful day of her life by far and the amount of times she has nearly died in the line of duty doesn’t come close.

As she sat there in silence, her ears which had drowned out most noises when she was talking, or rather yelling, at Valerica suddenly picked up a familiar moaning noise in the tent next to her.

Picking up the technique and her battle plans, she was moving to another tent for a few hours, she couldn’t deal with all this, especially after what her own sister said about her. Just thinking about it forced her to blush once more before vehemently denying it.

It just wasn’t true...
