Chapter 23

The slightly chill start of fall breeze blew through the streets of Dawnguard as Herro leaned back against a light pole. He had his phone in his hand and glanced up with an annoyed sigh.

“I didn’t even want the stupid date, but Razor said he was told by ‘a higher power’ that we can’t go raid this place yet.” Herro rolled his eyes, “A Higher Power? What is he talking to a deity?

“Then,” He continues, “The Harriet girl from the other night calls and wants a date. I guess I could have said ‘No thank you I’m fine’ but come on. She’s hot and seemed into me. She also isn’t completely above my station. Also let's be honest she isn't part of the Royal family so it might work out wonderfully.

Herro clicked the dial icon beside the missed call and held the ringing phone up to his ear. He barely got it up before a feminine squeal caused him to pull it away with a wince.

“Hello?” Herro asked slowly putting the phone back to his ear.

Harriets voice came through in an excited tone, “Hiya Hon! How are you doing? I’m so excited to hear back from you!”

“I’m returning your call from the other day,” Herro said, “I’m sorry it took so long.”

“That’s fine dear. So, did you think about going out?”

Herro shook his head, annoyed at the feeling that she had not right to call him by those pet names, “Yeah. That’s why I’m calling. It’s been a long day, but I do feel it would be nice to go out and get my mind off purple things?”

Another squeal came through from the other end. There was also what might have been high fiving and jumping? He didn’t care though, he felt good that someone fairly normal was so excited to go out with him.

He waited with the phone to his ear as she calmed down and her normal voice came through, “Can you give an hour to get ready?”

“Not a problem. I could use some time to freshem up myself,” Herro said running a hand through his hair.

“Ooh that’ll work,” She cooed, “Meet at six at ‘Jake’s’. You know the place?”

“The corner of main and sixth?”

Harriet’s voice was gleeful again, “That’s it! I’ll see you then love!”

Both hung up the phone, and Herro took out his house keys. He focused on the spell etched into them. Then flash he was in front of his house. The spell worked create a tunnel into his house at a special item Magia called a dimensional anchor, even though the slang was that it was the light at the end of the tunnel, it allowed for better and safer teleportation with less focus or power but only to within a few feet of the item.

Dropping the wards on his home to safe levels for while he was home, he walked into the living area. As soon as he entered his phone started buzzing. He glanced down and saw messages from Tsukiko asking if he was ok and where he was.

At first Herro wanted to respond but ultimately decided against it. Instead he threw the phone on the bed and got some nice clothes together then went into the bathroom to take a shower.

As he slipped his shirt over his head, he noticed the mirror and he glanced at his face and pulled his bangs up out of the way to reveal his scar, and growled out, “That psycho’s free! I am stronger than last time. He won't know what hit him next time we meet.”

Letting the hair fall back into place, he finished undressing and got into the steaming shower. He enjoyed the hot water washing over him. After an eternity, or fifteen minutes, got out of the shower, toweled off, and got dressed. He decided on a red polo t-shirt, a pair of khaki pants, and even put on black dress boots. He combed his hair back but thought better of it as he resembled Sean too much with his slicked back hair and combed it back to normal.

Finally, he returned to the bedroom and looked at his phone. Sure enough more messages. They ranged from concerned to threatening. Rolling his eyes he decided to type a quick message back

“I'm fine sis. I just needed to get out and have some fresh air after our little family reunion. Also, that Amazon from the club wants to go out this evening so I'm heading over there soon. Don't wait up...I sure as hell won't wait up for you. I believe the deity Razor spoke of said to go on a date with him or whatever. So go have fun, and in a couple days I hope to see you, or whenever we make the next move. Lack of love, Herro” Herro said aloud as he typed the text. Then hit send. He sat in bed regretting having got ready so early.

The phone buzzed as a reply came and Herro read the reply as if someone was listening, “What? That's a dumb idea! Razor said if Summer finds out she will be mad as hell!”

“We aren’t even Dating!” Herro said out loud swiping the answer with a scowl, “I had one … fun memory with her. She blew me off the other day. I do feel bad, but I think we should still date around. More her than I obviously”

The phone buzzed again “never mind Razor said this will be too funny” Herro read. With a roll of his eyes, he then flicked off his phone in frustration. It was true he wasn't Summer’s boyfriend. Hell they haven't even been on a date. It might be for the best if she continued to date around. Besides she was royalty so she would need someone more appropriate to her standings.

The time continued to tick away as he nervously waited for six to come. Pacing around the room as he was constantly going over what to say, or how to say it, would she even remember how he looked because she was blitzed that night, and if this go well could he kiss her or would she surprise him like Summer did. Finally, the clock struck six and being so lost in thought it made him jump. With a final look back at his door as he stepped outside and locked up, he muttered the incantation for a focused teleport to the front of the restaurant. He blinked into existance over the entrance and dropped the five feet. While the place wasn’t fancy they had good food, and surprisingly a teleport anchor for any mages in the area. He smiled as he looked up at the sign, only to be knocked off balance as something wrapped around him with a soft “Squee.”

“Hi Harriet its...nice to see...you” herro said while trying to pull her off him and get his balance back “Do all Amazons do this?”

She broke her hold and took a couple steps back. She was wearing a very cute blue blouse, a jean skirt, black heels, a large gold necklace with matching earrings. “No? Why?”

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

“No real reason” Herro responded with an exasperated sigh. “let's get a table”

He started looking around for a free spot and in the corner of his eyes noticed a long purple haired guy wearing a white beard. He had a long coat on in warm weather and sunglasses on. Seated near him was a brown haired girl who was reading a newspaper but had eye holes cut out.

“You have got to be kidding me” Herro said rubbing his temples while avoiding looking in their direction. “I can't believe they would be here”

Harriet looked around at his words, “Who’s here?”

“Two pests,” He responded and pointedly looked deeper in, “But don't worry they won't bug us”

Herro found a table in the back and Well away from his stalkers. The waitress came over and asked for their drink and food orders, and after a couple minutes they made up their minds. The waitress smiled and walked away. Then silence followed

“so what's up?” Herro asked trying to break the silence.

“Oh you know my one friend Shannon is talking shit about my friend Jennifer, and I really don't agree with. I think she is just being a bitch, but I'm not sure if I should say something” Harriet then continued the explanation of her friends backstabbing each other for the next ten minutes. “so that's what's going on in my life! How about you?”

Herro lost interest about three minutes back, but his mind clicked into gear once he heard silence. “Huh? Oh I'm fine for the most part. I had a unexpected family reunion recently. Other than that I have been hanging around razor”

“The Prince?!” Harriet said very excited as she clasped his hands. “tell me what is he like? He looks so suave and has a body to die for! The best of both worlds.”

Herro responded thinking about his answer “Umm he is rather different, but so far not a bad guy. I have seen him in battle, and I must say he is very well trained.”

“You see his muscles?”

“I'm starting to feel strange here”

“I bet you have some under that shirt. I would like to find out sometime.” Harriet cooed, fidgeting with her shirt to show her breasts off more. Apparently all Amazons know how to dress to flatter their assets.

Herro became mesmerized by the sight. So much that his mind went blank. “I...I...have some. Are all of you so sexual?”

Harriet squeezed closer to him, “Not all of us. That said you really don’t seem like you’re completely used to it, so You’re not around here?”

“Well I'm neither human nor Amazon I come from the spirit world” Herro answered. “so it's not weird you sensed something different. We are a little rare in this world.”

“Can you do something magicky?” Harriet asked with her eyes lit up

“You Amazons have magic too you know...but sure” Herro focused his will into his hand and ice crystals appeared. “I would do fire but I rather not have the sprinklers go off”

Harriet sat in silence and wonder looking at the ice forming. She licked her lips and looked at Herro in the eyes. “I'm horney. Let's go in the bathroom for some fun?”

“the bathroom? Umm...kinda unsanitary”

“I will take your mind off that”

“Did ya hear that?” Tsukiko asked razor with a

Razor stroked his “beard” for a couple seconds. “humm”

“Ah still have no idea why you wore that. Looks dumb, hon” Tsukiko said annoyed at the lack of answer

“Should I grow a beard?” Razor asked still looking off to the side while scratching his chin, “It’d look badass.”

Tsukiko smacked him on the back of the head, “Oh my god, please focus Darlin’! The girl is going to have sex with Herro!”

“and your point would be?”

“One, it's Herro” Tsukiko then shivered. “And Two summer claimed him already remember. She will kill him...and her if it happens”

Razor shrugged his shoulders, “it's just sex”

“excuse me?” tsukiko’s eyes turned black. No white or pupils just black. “you do that to me I will hunt you down”

Razor’s eyes went wide. “you are so hot when you're mad! Wanna join them?”

“ugh!” her eyes go back to normal. “just call her”

Razor pulled out his phone and dialed Summer's number. “hey sis. I know you were busy after the meeting with pops but there is a girl who is putting the moves on Herro….no I didn't stop them….I can ask” razor leaned over to tsukiko. “she wants to know if you could activate the portkey for her. Tsukiko nodded yes and started concentrating. “yep, don't worry in about five seconds it will work. Yep see you soon” razor then hung up the phone.

“what she say?” tsukiko asked

“let's say we better take cover”

Herro’s cell phone rang. Which he felt was strange because nobody called him, and tsukiko was talking to razor. He was in a critical moment though this Amazon wanted to have sex now. However, this could be important.

“damn it! I'm sorry if this ruins the mood but I should take this”

“no worries it just drives me more crazy” Harriet responded.

Herro wasted no time. He quickly fished out the phone and swiped the screen to answer the call.

“hello?” the phone just cut out and as it hung up he muttered, “huh that's weird”

With an almost inaudible pop, a portal ripped open from out of nowhere, and the Amazon princess stepped out of it. Her hands were on her hips and her normal green eyes were a crimson red color. She stepped forward examining the whole area.

“what the fuck! You can teleport?” Herro asked in surprise

“princess it's a honor! I had no idea you had such skills” Harriet said

“shut up hussy Summer here to get some things straightened out!” Summer then walked up to Herro who obviously was nervous. “how dare you! If you wanted date Summer would have gone, but instead you find this whore?”

“wait what? Listen I met her before I met you! Well actually it was the same day, but I gave her my number so when she sobered up she could call. It was by chance that I saved you and that you like me. If I recall you blew me off when I tried to talk to you”

“and yet you had no problem having Summer suck you off!”

Herro’s cheeks instantly turned red. He had nothing to combat that comment. Also, he was embarrassed that she said it out loud. He needed to change the topic.

“why do you call yourself in the third person?”

“it's something Summer does when she is mad. If you had decency you would have asked me first if you wanted a three some”

Herro now turned a new shade of red. His ears burned with embarrassment. He then turned to Harriet. “I'm sorry for this. I'm not looking for a three some”

“it's a shame because it would be nice” Harriet said trying to sound sexy but you could tell she was a little nervous.

“tell Summer this whore did you claim him?” summer asked

“no princesses. I had not planned on it”

“Summer have officially claimed him. You may ask Summer brother the Prince!”

“I had no idea princess. I did not see your mark or scent on him”

“well let it be known he is mine. I will do the claiming ritual tonight. All night long. The tattoo will be after we marry”

Herro protested “whoa whoa. What is this ritual? Marriage? I don't think so crazy. Unlike my sister I rather not be apart of your family”

Summer looks him in the eyes then blurred for a second. He then felt her fist slam into his stomach making him drop to the floor in pain. For such a petite woman she packed a strong punch when pissed. Summer stood over him.

“the ritual is very passionate sex where we lay claim to each other. Our auras become one, and it is apparent we belong together. Bound together. However, Summer might start with angry make up sex. As for you!” points to Harriet. “ you are in my seat. For your health I suggest you move”

Harriet jumped up instant. “yes my princess. I wish you and your mate a fun night. I wish I had known before hand” Harriet looked at Herro

“how was I supposed to know? The ritual never happened. This is crazy!” Herro true to gasp out

“however, princess if you are ever up for a three some have him give me a call” Harriet said she then winked and left the restaurant. The food passing her as it came to the table.

Summer then sat at the table. “darling please stop making a scene and sit with me”

Herro’s mouth dropped at that statement. The irony of it all. However, he did he up and sat back in his seat. His hunger outweighing the craziness.

“want me to feed you darling?” Summer said taking a fork full of food and presenting it in from of Herro’s mouth.

“why does this level of craziness keep following me?” he then took a bit to please her. She smiled sweetly. “how did you teleport?”

“that's easy tsukiko made your phone a port key for me. If you answer it I can instantly come to you. After you ran away I had her do it...to avoid another chase”

“unbelievable! How did she? You know what I will reverse it”

“you reverse it and i will have to hurt you again. If you were hurt or in trouble how would i get to you? I want it to stay.” Summer said seriously. Then after a Long pause asked. “after dinner want to have fun in the bathroom?”
