Wolf’s Bane

The mansion was not in any way similar to the Governor’s, not in style, colour scheme or size. Obviously, this residential property was around a third of the size of the place that he had just left behind, due to him being a half-reluctant sacrificial lamb, but that wasn’t what he really minded about this place.

It was the fact that he was with someone he wished he never was with…

Bren decided to leave Chin’s bedroom as soon as he could hear the woman’s snores. They weren’t loud and he could easily take a sexual partner being loud. What he couldn’t stand was her wheezing inhalation that was a continuous pattern in Different pitches.

All of those nasal sounds were high-pitched, and all of them were intensely irritating for him.

He would rather be beside a snoring pig, to be honest.

“How I got chosen to be her ‘flavor of the month’ I still can’t understand, but beggars can’t be choosers. Besides, my being with her practically solves the problem of finding a spy who can report on her activities. It just so happens that I’m the guy who HATES everything about her, and it’s not because she’s the damned governor’s wife.”

Well, maybe he’s not the only one who hated everything about her, but he’s the one who’s currently stuck with her among those who hated everything about her…

As a habit, he would take a bath every time they fucked and he would proceed to one of the bathrooms downstairs to do that. Soon, he would have to choose one of the guest rooms on the ground floor for his own use, as he was ordered by Chin to do upon their arrival to her mansion. And he would…

He even intended to get one with a bathtub so he could soak off that most hated female scent off himself since he usually took a long time to do that if he chose to just shower.

But for now, one of the hallway bathrooms would have to suffice. Besides, he needed to do something soon and this was the perfect place to do it.

As soon as he entered the compact tiled room and locked the door, he was already speed dialing his phone.

The man at the other end of the line picked up on the third ring. It was a given that he wouldn’t be answering the call if the number of rings reached six.

“Glad to hear from you, Bren. I’m glad you survived your first few hours at her house.”

“Yeah, I’ve heard the stories too, and I consider myself either very lucky or I’m just that physically fit.”

“Maybe, you’re both… but I’m sure that you have a very strong stomach since you haven’t gone comatose. Anyway, I presume that she’s now fast asleep.”

“Yeah, it wasn’t that easy, too.”

“Yes, you truly do have a strong stomach. So, this means I would need to find another source of information in the Governor’s mansion, which I honestly don’t mind. It’s just that there are no more vacancies in the mansion where I can position one of ours.”

“Already handled that, Ogre. I dislocated someone’s jaw yesterday and just found out that he was deemed unfit to work for a couple of days. Maybe you can find someone to replace him with the required three-month contractual offer just like you did with me. I’m sure you can work it out so he gets a more permanent position in the future, which is my employment status now.”

“Good work, Brenner. Perfect timing, too, since I’m on my way back to the mansion within the day. So, who did you put out like a light?”

“Nick…” the male household help replied as he started to remove his clothes in preparation for his shower.

The person at the other end of the line took quite a while before he replied, “Nick? The massive monster of a man who looks like that wrestler guy in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie?”

“Yep, he’s one of the governor’s guards for his bedroom suite. Used that special one-punch technique you taught me. Worked like a charm,” Bren said with a proud chuckle as he stepped into the darkly tinted shower stall, happy that his phone was waterproof.

“Wow, that’s… pretty impressive, Bren… I believe I need to teach you more moves when we do get to meet again.”

“Yeah bro, I’m eager to learn more, provided Mistress Sex Vampire doesn’t suck everything out of me. I swear, she has enough appetite to eat up even a;; of my bone marrow and still be unsatisfied. Ugh…”

“Well, I thank my lucky stars that I’ve never had to touch her, not even once. I made sure she hated me the first time we personally met just so I’m sure that I wouldn’t have to deal with her in any way.”

“Wish I could do the same, but I don’t exactly have a whole gang of more than 200 crazy killers behind my back to cover for me, so yeahhhh…” Bren said smirking, as he turned on the shower, hoping H would be able to hear what he was saying over the loud sound coming from the water heater.

Hero didn’t seem to mind the noise and was quick to reply…

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure they are ready for infiltration and extraction if necessary. I’ll even see to it myself, so consider yourself well-covered, my friend. And as long as you can continue to give us updates on Mistress Chin, you will be helping out our cause effectively. We’re just sorry that you had to be sacrificed like this…”

“No worries, brother. I’ll do anything to keep the governor from winning. You can definitely count on me.”

“Thank you, B. Just make sure she never finds out about us… Uhhh… about us talking…”

Bren chuckled again as he continued to stand under the very loud and very strong shower, quite satisfied to know his present phone convo wouldn’t be heard outside the bathroom. “Bro, you’re not my type, ok. Don’t worry, I’ll keep what we have a secret… I mean keep our calls… uhhh… keep our talks a secret…”

It was H’s turn to laugh. “Yes, you’re not my type either, bro, so don’t worry. I’ll keep you safe with me… I mean, you’re safe with me, bro… need to go now, I’m currently cooking something special…”

“Oh, with your wife?” asked the well-built manservant eagerly, familiar with his friend’s penchant to cook alongside his beloved domestic partner when he had the chance.

“Well, no I’m cooking with another man… I mean, he’s a partner… business partner… Never mind, forget I said anything about that…”

A moment of awkward silence from Bren before he was able to answer. “Uhhh… forgotten, no problem… and goodbye for now, Ogre. I’ll be sending you messages or emails if I can’t call you. If I don’t send you anything for a day, feel free to check me out… I mean, check on me.”

“Yes, and just for the record, I don’t swing that way, Bren.”

“Same here. Bye now. Until next time.”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The former swimming pool attendant ended the call and placed his mobile on a small shelf that’s attached to the shower stall’s heavily tinted glass. He sighed in relief since he now had his hands free to soap himself all over in an effort to wash away the memory of his recent unwanted bed scene.

And they said men couldn’t be taken against their will.

If they only knew…
