I awoke with a warm feeling on my chest and my right arm as I looked down. I saw 5 little bodies on my chest and stomach and one big body that turned out to be Lisa. She was cuddled into me clutching my arm and purring, yes she was purring and the vibration reverberated through my chest.

I put my head back down as all were silent and sleeping.

I wondered how long they had been there and worried about rolling over "you don't move in your sleep, I told them when they asked me" I heard Vicky in my head. I just smiled and enjoyed just being there, you know if this is part of my grand adventure I could handle life this time. Then I thought if 5 teen girls and started to panic a little, oh shit what am I into I kidded myself.

After about 15 min the original reason I woke up was worse and now I really needed to pee. I tried squirming and Lisa raised her head. She looked at me and sensed my discomfort and grabbed the kits. They let out a little squeak while being woken and as soon as the last one was moved I bolted.

I heard laughter over my shoulder as I ran to the bathroom. As I emptied my bladder I asked Vicky how long I was asleep "7 hours 22 minutes" was my answer. "I thought of 1.5 hours so I can work with that". Like previous times I woke up feeling great, I pulled on some clothes and stepped into the refresher. I felt a tingling in my fingers and toes that crawled to the core or my body then over my head then nothing. "Is that it?" I asked "yup the process is a bit longer if you're filthy"

"Can this sanitize?"

"Yes the tech was invented for surgery but it made it into the home". I smiled "every mother on the planet will want one of these''. I started to laugh. "How are our guests?" She giggled "lots of questions and thank yous" my turn to giggle.

"They are getting the swing of things, Kim has questions when you have time. I resized the furniture and the kitchen while they slept and they liked it. I redid the bathroom as well so you might make sure your bladder is empty, your aim isn't that good" she laughed "yea yea yea".

I left the bathroom to see Lisa with 5 little squirming bodies, who were mewing loudly. "They are hungry," she chuckled. I took 2 of them and we made our way to the door. When I said they were squirming that was an understatement, I had to catch one as she flipped and flopped. We entered the other quarters to find Kim and Gar sitting on the sofa feeding the male.

"Good morning, how did you sleep?" I got smiles as I sat and Lisa went to get bottles. "So you think you can be comfortable here?" I got enthusiastic head nods. "I'm still in shock a little bit but it's sinking in'' Gar smiled and Lisa came to sit with the tray. "The girls woke up and fed and then wanted you so I checked with Vicky and she said you don't move in your sleep so it was safe. I feel better after one hour with you than 8 at home, it's weird but I'm not complaining". She said with a shy smile.

I smiled at her then looked at mom and dad "and how did the parents sleep?"

They both looked at me and answered at once "we didn't". They looked at each other and giggled. Kim spoke up "we were just talking and exploring and lost track of time, we are both excited to be here". That made me smile.

I thought if people are this easy to make happy it might work. Kim came to me "if it's ok I would like to make some cages in one of the bedrooms". I looked at her "like actual cages" she nodded. "These little ones will be mobile soon so the cages are to keep them safe and for punishment. They will start to explore and trust me they will be needed" her expression was serious so I took it that way.

"Just tell Vicky the dimensions you want and she will make it happen." Gar smiled "we were talking last night about what we will do with our lives now" I smiled "well whatever you do choose something that will make you happy so take your time and decide" that got smiles all around and Lisa came to me "what are you doing today". I looked at her "I feel like I should be doing something but as of now I have no plans" I drank the last of my coffee and went to get another when I noticed the kitchen.

Everything was reduced in size by about 30% and it looked perfect for them. "I'm glad you're settling in here." I looked at Gar and he started to laugh "this is like getting hit with a happy train" getting laughs all around.

Vicky appeared and said good morning then turned to Kim "May we speak".

"Of course is something wrong?" Vicky smiles " not at all, I'm going to do scans on your entire family. Gar was done when he was injured and your next. We can do it here or in med bay if it's easier it should be under an hour".

Kim smiled "I get to hide by myself and take a nap, lead on" she giggled and left the room. Lisa came to me and asked about my family "I have a daughter and 3 granddaughters, I have 9 siblings and a boatload of nieces and nephews. She looked at me "why aren't they here?"

That question hit me like a gut punch but I smiled " your right they do need to be here I will probably start with my daughter". Lisa smiled and hugged me. She pulled back and looked at me then licked the end of my nose. I took this as a good thing as she cuddled into me right after. "If there is nothing to do today I will be right here" she whispered then started to purr.

I looked over at Gar who was covered in kits with an evil smile on his face shaking his head. "Just like her mother," I heard him say. I stood with her clinging to me and I walked and rocked out of habit. I went to see the cages being built in one of the bedrooms. There were 6 small cages and one big one. All I could think is I hope they don't get used much, Vicky appeared with my answer.

"We talked last night and Yes it is to keep them safe mostly from themselves. She described the kits as super curious and will get into everything if not watched."

"I understand I just find it creepy," I laughed.

Lisa's purring got louder and her embrace around my neck tightened slightly. "Don't you ever think of putting me down" she giggled "no matter how many wives you have this is my spot".

My eyes shoot open

"WIVES" I sputtered. She leaned back to look at me "of course, do you think a man of your power and such love to give should be reduced to a single mate." She looked serious. "We normally don't have multiple wives, it's mostly monogamous on my planet" another stern look.

"I know Vicky told us and we don't agree with that." All of them nodded their heads. Another stern look "you will see in time that we are right."

I just looked at her "yes dear" I said giggling. She gave me an odd look "I will explain it later" a shrug then back to cuddles.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

I walked into the hallway and noticed the blank wall between our quarters. "Vickey you may as well create a third quarters here" a hologram dissolved and revealed it was already done. "Thought that might happen" I heard in my head, making me laugh. Just a Quick Look proved that it was the same as mine.

I returned to see Gar covered in kits as he tried to sort them out. I made my way over and had a seat beside the kits on the cushion. He looked at me " I want to personally thank you for this opportunity for my family" I smiled "no need to thank me, just think if we find your planet we can help them too".

"I don't care if you ever find it" the grin he had on his face let me know he was being honest.

At that moment Kim and Vicky walked in laughing announcing that her scans were done, now it's Lisa's turn. With a groan she squeezed tighter in her spot. Kim walked up and pinched the tip of her tail resulting in a yip and a very awake little kitty.

I burst out laughing "do what your mom wants or we are both in trouble". She nuzzled my cheek "ok ok I'm getting up" she stood and stretched. Vickey was waiting by the door so she went to her and then left for the med bay.

Kim looked at me and the look kind of scared me. "You don't realize how much you have saved her from." she said with a smile "We are middle class in our world and she wouldn't be allowed around a person like you. She was to be mated with a man who is in no way as nice as you and she knew it. In one motion you saved her life and gave her a better one. If my mate was lost you would have my live bites as well" she laughed and I blushed.

"Is that what they are called?" I retorted. She nodded "yup, they are meant to be loving. I guess my daughter wanted to get her point across" she laughed as I rubbed my shoulder and smiled. "So you are ok with this" she nodded and Gar spoke up "Brad you have taken that weight off of our hearts, the one that worries about your children's future. I know she will be taken care of and loved. I see you with her and you have already made up your mind in this situation in my mind anyway" I put on a shy smile and both of them did too.

We talked till Lisa and Vickey walked in laughing and saved me. It seems I have a bunch of women in my life and I'm so glad they get along I thought and got a look from Vickey.

"All of your scans are done and it will take a day or two for the nanobots to finish everything at a genetic level. Kim was the only one with anomalous cells, I think it was your form of cancer but they are gone now. Your in perfect health now that all of the viruses are gone as well. They should all live to your full lifespan of 200 years".

Lisa fainted to the floor and Gar just looked at me blankly, the kits were holding on because he stopped. I reached out and took them as Kim started crying. I took her kits, giving me all 6 as they sat with the same blank look on their faces. I looked at Vicky "is she ok?" She nodded. I put the kits down on the cushion and went to Lisa and picked her up.

"200 years" belted Kim out loud enough to wake everyone. I just sat there looking at my new adopted family and there wasn't a dry eye among them. I let them cry it out and Lisa went to hug her parents so I picked up the kits and looked at them.

"What was that?" I asked in a calm voice. Lisa sat between her parents and looked at me "Brad in my world I'm a spinster, I spent half my life alone. I was getting mated because if I didn't there was nobody who would look at me because of my age."

"I'm confused, you look no older than my daughter and she is 25" she smiled that evil grin "I am now" she said.

"That doesn't help me"

"Well before the bed I was 7 years old, my dad retired at 14" Kim blurted out "20 years was a good life".

Vickey looked at me wide eyed and saying nothing "please tell me these are all happy tears?" Kim spoke up Gar still looked a little rattled "oh dear yes, except for the babies I think they are hungry. You just gave us 20 lifetimes and in the lap of luxury to boot. I don't even argue it now you are the holy man. I know it's all tech but you can't deny the parallels". I nodded my head and looked at Gar who looked like he was coming around "think you will come out of retirement". He burst out laughing and we all joined him.

Vickey started again "I took a shocking amount of virus from your systems and added permanent nanobots to keep it that way. Well I added it to mom and dad Lisa doesn't need any" I looked at her "why?"

She giggled and smiled. "You gave them to her, well actually she took one from you. When she bit you the nanobot found itself in a new home it tried to figure out where it was and contacted the others. When it figured out that it was Lisa, they decided as a collective to protect her based on your feelings for her. They are smart little buggers. And on that note the ones in Lisa won't talk to me but they want to talk to Lisa while she sleeps".

Lisa looked at me "the bugs in me want to talk to me?" I shrugged and Vickey jumped in again "they have been migrating from Brad to you while you have skin contact. Brad's body is making them specifically for you and they ask a sleep cycle together to complete the process. They have to hit a critical mass before they can self replicate. She just looked at me and blinked like she was thinking "I want you to make your decisions for you not me". She started to laugh "it's not that I was wondering if I should just go to sleep right here". She said with that evil grin.

Everyone laughed at that then she looked at me "shall we go make up my spot". I looked at Vickie "how long do they need" "3 hours if there is enough skin contact so loose the shirt both of you". I stood with her hugging tight and her face in my neck. It felt weird with her parents looking at me.

I went to the bedroom and she got down and went to the bathroom and got a towel to wrap around herself. I took my shirt off and layed on my back and she lay on top of me pulling the towel from between us but kept us covered. She squirmed for a second then relaxed. We both fell into a deep sleep in this position.

6 hours later we awoke in the spooning position, my body enveloping hers and we weren't alone. I heard Lisa's voice beside me "we apologize for the length of the transfer, we had to run simulations till the error rate for transformation was zero".

"Transformation" I heard from under my arm. I looked down at Lisa still in my arms and she sat up with no modesty this time "I'm getting transformed?"

"Enhanced," said the standing Lisa. "The prime, your mate will require heirs. Currently you are not quite compatible but we can change that if you wish"

"Do it" she answered without hesitation "but what if" my lips got pinched shut.

"My decision right" I nodded as far as my lips would allow. She looked at her doppelgänger "do it". She leaned in to me whispering in my ear "I will bear your children" she then licked my nose and sat back up for her shirt. The standing Lisa bowed and smiled "we have many things to discuss in regards to your new body." I looked at Vickey "at least she gets a choice" I was promptly told to shut up.

Nano Lisa continued "we won't be building you from scratch like prime was. Your body will change to be a perfect mate physically. We can speak more during your sleep cycles if that is permissible" Lisa smiled and nodded and her second smiled and disappeared.

I looked at Vickey "what the hell was that" she just looked at me and shrugged "I don't know but it has the creator's signature. You have all the access to the files, try doing a search." I sat up and nodded. Lisa went to help her mom with the kits so I went to the sofa and concentrated for a few min till C appeared "sir try this" and he transferred a procedure for me to follow that worked perfectly the first time for me. "I couldn't watch you flounder anymore" he smiled then disappeared. I did a search and found the subroutine that was added and it was labeled Cross Species Breeding with a note attached to the file. My nanobots translated it for me so I read it aloud.

"If you're reading this your feelings have strayed from your species don't let it stop your goal". I looked at Vicky "any other notes I should know of" she shook her head. "Look through that subroutine and see if it poses any problems". She looked away for a second then back to me "none at all sir, it's set up in a way that she has full control over the process. All I can see as an outcome is super healthy kids" She smiled at me.

"This week is getting too much to take" I kidded. I looked at Lisa "I want you to promise me something. This is all about you, don't make changes for me" she smiled and sat in my lap.

"I understand what you are asking and I promise I will. The thoughts of having your litter makes me happy. The reason I claimed you is I see in you what you don't yet. You will be the holy man to your world and I will be there beside you. Plus I'm never giving up my spot" she giggled then licked my nose, she seems to always know what I need. With that I let the family talk and retreated to my quarters. I took a shower and went back to bed.
