The Z-1 Ranch P-107 CGW

Ted was really taken back at his friend Bill and the situation that he in, he was with a very nice-looking young man he was different from others yet he tried to blend in. He still had a hard time believing that Bill had sex with this individual and he was expecting a child by Bill,

Dayzon had the table set immaculate, everything was in its place for a formal dinner. He just hoped that he did not forget anything that would bring embarrassment to his mate, he so wanted to impress his dear friend from his past.

Bill walked up to Dayzon his arms and kissed his lips; table looks fabulous darling you don't have to worry about anything and if it takes is half as good as it looks, I'm going to be the one gaining the weight in this household.

The three of them chitchatted as they consume their meal Dayzon listened more than he chatted because he wanted to learn everything that he could about Bill and his old friend from college. He wanted know everything about the way he grew up what he was like as a younger version and Ted had no problem filling the him in on some of the most embarrassing moments of young Bill's life.

You don't have to let all of my secrets out tonight Ted or should I call you Teddy like Joey used to?

Okay I get the message loud and clear Bill. I will try to keep the remembrance as friendly as I possibly can and spare you any embarrassing moments.

That would be nice because we all have a past that we don't wish to be drug up into the present. So how is your family doing grandparents okay? I'm not going to ask the other questions.

My grandparents are fine I have to report into grandmother nightly so she knows that I'm doing okay her and grandfather will be coming out eventually for a visit if I stay.

What you mean if you stay, you are home and you better get that through your mind, how else are you going to meet somebody to procreate with.

Don't have to say it so mechanically Bill. So, I want to have a child and I want to raise the child is there anything wrong with that? I don't want to get weighed down by a relationship, all the females in the city all they see is my name and they see the big bucks that's all any more interested in the dollar signs and how much it's worth.

Ted, like I told you earlier if you wish to meet someone here on the ranch, I can help I can get a hold of proper people and you can view the files and see if there's any of those that strike your fancy.

From then on it simple you go to the conception quarters you spend the night with them the next morning they run a test and it let you know right then if it was successful and in nine months out pops your kid. The only thing you have to do is arrange nectar unless the birthing parent is willing to supply it the duration of the night you will have no contact and even that can be dealt with in a different circumstance were is delivered to the home and you feed it to the child. The two of you can agree if he will be in the child's life or not. But first thing in the morning we need to go to the main office so that you can meet with Tim and discuss the details of land acquisition and location of the main warehouse for this production facility is going to be located.

Bill you're jumping the gun again, I don't even know if they like the idea of the transparent solar roofing system.

Ted, please take a seat I don't want you to fall and bust that melon head of yours when you pass out. I need to make a phone call and put it on conference, we have a great IT department here thanks to one of Mr. Zack's grandsons so you'll be able to talk directly via conference the monitor system here on the wall.

Bill took the universal remote and punched up a couple of numbers and hit the enter button. Zach and Ben came up on the monitor along with Ed and Carter and Jake was via satellite.

Good you're all there; Bill, Dayzon and Ted. Ted, we have all discussed the ramifications of your product and how it would apply to the Z1 and all of Hawthorne industries and Jake Traylor construction and I believe we are all in agreement that we feel your product is a perfect fit for our needs so tomorrow morning you need to meet with Tim and Luther at the main office and you'll find contracts are portions will be signed because we have prior engagements it is a 51% to 49% ratio like we discussed earlier. The warehouse and construction headquarters will be here and you will design them we will build them along with Traylor construction and we will start turning out transparent solar roofing immediately in fact the factory will have it on the entire roof line.

Mr. Spinelli are you saying that you wish to go in to business with me even with my baggage?

You have no baggage, the senior operating officers of Wallace industries has forth with withdrawn any claims to your product and no one in the company will ever approach you, contest you or any other way interfere in your future we have their guarantee on that and as soon as start getting everything set up here expect a visit from your grandparents because I know I am going to be delighted to meet such a magnificent couple.

Theodore Howard Wallace the third welcome Z1 family, we expect great things from you, young man. Now enjoy the rest of your meal that I know is coming up until we meet again.

Ted set on the sofa in shock, his product his creation was finally going to see the light. Not only thanks to his wonderful new partners but to his grandparents. He considered them his rock and without them he would have been nothing.

Bill and Ted jumped when the doorbell went off, Dayzon on the other hand was surprised at all he was expecting something he stood up and went to the door to answer it.

Tim and Mason stood at the door with Tim holding a gigantic cake. I believe that we have a delivery here for the Cross-residence Tim responded smiling.

Dayzon welcomed the two into the home. Please come in and I'll show you where to put the cake.

Tim set the cake down as Dayzon instructed and returned to where Bill and Ted were still seated in the living room.

Dayzon and Mason served the cake and coffee and set beside the respective mates.

Tim felt like the odd man out being by himself, he listened as Dayzon and Mason discussed his current pregnancy and what he should expect in the months to come. Bill and Tim talked about children and families.

Bill broached the subject first, Tim maybe you can help us with a little discussion that Ted and I were having earlier.

Sure, what kind of advice do you need?

Seems Ted here is thinking about starting a family once he gets settled here on the Z1.

That sounds great how can I help?

Ted doesn't want to get married or hook up with a mate to raise the child, he wants to find someone to have a baby and then he raises the child on his own it's up to the other party if they wish to be involved at all in a lesser role. But he will be the main caregiver of the child as it grows.

Tim looked at Ted, so let me get this right you want someone to carry the child birth child and then let you raise the child here at the ranch on your own as a single parent?

Yes, Tim that's the jest of it, I know it sounds strange but with everything in my past I don't want to get tangled up into a relationship with anyone but I want a child at least one maybe two so that the child isn't lonely.

So, Tim how does he go about registering with the center, I know there's a process of DNA matching health screening and other medical information that needs to be collected.

Bill that's the normal way of doing it, but you know he can always meet someone here at the jobsite or Wherever but Genmen don't always give up their children. There are cases where some breeders have been allowed to take the children off the ranch and the carrier goes about his life. Ben doesn't look kindly on that process you know my dad. He suffered because of his actions in the past.

Oh, I know it's not going to be easy, I'm not a little guy and I don't want to hurt anyone.

Mason patted him on his leg.

Tim cleared his throat, I'll do it. I will serve as your surrogate you can impregnate me; I will carry the child until birth. Mason will serve as the feeder of the child since he produces nectar 24 seven. He's been bugging me to carry once again but the doctor wants him to wait because of his last delivery.

But there are some rules that we have to set and we need to sign a contract so that it's legal here at the Z1. I will bear myself let you impregnate me; you will make every doctor's appointment along with Mason you will be there for the birthing and the daily care is up to you. The boys will know his birthing parent and his half siblings.

Ted set there in shock, you mean you want the two of us to produce a child?

With all this here and my good looks along with your body and your good looks the child has a win-win whether he takes from my side the family or your side or even both. Ted he's gonna be a whopper it's a good thing that I have a little practice or he might rip me apart.

I tell you what, think on it a few days digest the idea and I'll set up a time and a date that we can use a conception room and we will get this started. Plus, I have to protect the interest of the Z1 a child born between you and I would inherit both sides should something happen to one of us.

Tim and Mason stood up and bid everyone goodbye, Mason stopped in front Ted and kissed him on his cheek wishing him the best. The two visitors left.

No sooner than they had left out the front door Bill burst out in laughter. I bet you damn well didn't expect that did you now Ted. But he's true when he says the genetics of you two will produce a hell of a child and is good thing that he's built like he is because a match between you two would rip one's vent plum out.

Bill, he acted like it was nothing, it's like here I am use me put a kid in me and I'll birth it and give it to you.

Like I said Genmen don't have all the hang-ups that humans have even the hybrids don't have the hang's when it comes to sex and reproduction. Plus, he's right a child born between you two would have the benefits of protecting both sides of the family business, should something happened to either or both of you the child would inherit from both sides so no one could ever take the company from its control.

Before I do that, I would really like to find out what happened Joey.

Ted, you have looked for Joey for over three years and there is no trace of him what ever happened he left and covered his tracks well. Go ahead and go on with your life, if you do find him then you can sit down and talk if he's willing. Opportunities like these do not come along every day claim the moment. Why don't you sleep on a and in the morning, you can think with a clear mind?

Ted reluctantly got off the sofa and made his way back to his room that had been prepared for him. Dayzon had left nothing to chance the place looked like it had been ripped from a catalog photo. Bill had good taste.

Tim and Mason arrived home. Are you angry with me Mason because you have not said one word on the way home?

No, I'm not mad at you Tim, a little shocked but not mad. So, this is what had you preoccupied all afternoon and you told me it was nothing. I think what you're doing or offered to do for him is fantastic. And being volunteered as a wet nurse thrills me. As long as it's not my vent getting stretched out from delivering what will be a large child is perfectly fine with me. I will be in the delivery room when that baby comes into this world, he will bond with all of us make no mistake.

All I can say is I'm gonna sit back and watch the fireworks fly when you drop the bombshell on your parents. And I expect there will be a small explosion if not from your father certainly from your dad you remember how he was last time. And if either one of you knuckleheads think that Zachariah or Benjamin Spinelli will give up their position as grandparents to that boy, you have a new thing in store for you.

Yeah, I kind of figured that they might have a little input dad is getting hard to read, he does so much in the background and then springs it on every body. Surprised look what I did and I don't want to hear another word of it. I am almost tempted to go ahead and do it and then what are they gonna say, I'll already be pregnant with the baby.

That's one way to avoid the nuclear explosion for a little while at least but I don't think it's the best way to Timothy, you need to sit down with both of your parents and explain to them what you are going to do with or without their blessing.

I was afraid you would say that Mason, that's why you're going to be in the room with me. And the sooner the better after the contracts are signed. And I mean all the contracts business and personal.

Tim if we don't have anything else to discuss, I want to go to bed I'm tired and it will be an early morning, our son will be back from summer camp tomorrow and you might want to tell him along with the twins of what you are contemplating on doing.

I hadn't thought about telling them, I guess it involves a lot of people. The twins are getting ready to go thru transition soon. I'll call Carter first thing in the morning and ask him to send the twins over here tomorrow afternoon so that all three boys will be here when I announce my intentions.

Tim and Mason went to the main house early in the morning they had decided to have breakfast with Tim's parents. Everything was going just fine and Tim decided it was time to make the announcement he just hoped there was too bad of explosion.

Father, dad I need to talk to the two of you about something that I am going to do.

Go ahead Tim your father and I are listening what is the announcement?

I have decided that I'm going to carry again.

Zach did not even look up from his morning paper he just grunted.

Ben was a little bit different, so what made you decide to carry instead of Mason?

No dad this is an independent carry for another father I will birth the child for him.

And Mason is okay with this you stepping outside to carry a child for someone else?

Yes Mr. Ben I am fine with it, the father is a very well-educated human he doesn't want to be involved in a relationship he just wants a child to raise.

Zach laid the paper down, and just where in the hell this child be raised at May I ask you young man?

Father he will be raised here on the ranch, Mason has agreed to serve as wet-nurse the baby will be Either at one of the offices or our home while he is working.

You do realize that's our grandchild that you're going to be carrying should you decide to go through with this and we expect certain rights.

As you should no child should be denied their grandparents. It will be drawn in a contract the child will be reared here on the Z1 will be talked about all aspects of his genetics history of both races. His grandparents will have visitation rights and he will know all of his siblings. Mason and I are telling the boys this afternoon if perspective father decides to go this route. If he decides to use another carrier then it's up to him to negotiate a proper contract. But I would never let them make a mistake.

Tim is your father I would like to inquire about the young man have decided to let impregnate you why?

Zachariah our son is a grown man and if he decides to carry for someone else that is his rights is not up to us to approve or disapprove, he makes good sound decisions in every aspect of his life all we can do is support him in his endeavor.

I know Ben but also remember how hard it was on you every time you relinquished control and custody of the child that you carried for a father.

Zach I was reckless Timothy is not in the same caliber of person that I was when I was doing that. I trust him to make the proper decision and with Mason standing beside him he'll be just fine.

Tim stood up and asked to be excused because he needed to go meet with perspective father. Mason acknowledged his mate and wished him the best of luck. I know that you will do the proper thing and so will the other party.

Tim left the room.

Okay out with-it Mason who is going to be the father is the grandfather I have the right to know.

No disrespect Mr. Zach but when the time is right Tim will let you know who the father is the fact that y'all have already met is a good thing. But my lips are sealed.

Ben started to laughing, I know who it is I'm not gonna tell anyone especially not you Zachariah. When Tim wants us to know he will tell us until then I will keep the secret for him. A dad knows these things about his son, we have a connection.

Treat me like a mushroom, keep me in the darkened plenty of bullshit. I think I'm going to Township and have a malted and no one is invited.

Watch your weight young man, you know what the doctor said about your blood pressure.

I heard him loud and clear I also have been following his new diet schedule and had a checkup the other day and everything looked a lot better so you're not the only one with secrets.

Zach stood up at the table and left the room.

Okay Mason is just you and I now, and tell me who is father to be and how do we know him?

Sorry Mr. Ben but I promised him that I would not breathe a word to anyone, especially the two of you. I support his decision he's been wrestling with this for a while but the opportunity came up just recently and he made his mind up. And once Tim makes his mind there's no changing it, I think the father's a knockout and will produce a beautiful child with Timothy. And that's all I have to say on the subject.

So, you're going to sit here at this table and honestly tell me that you're not going to say anything, you're keeping the secret for your mate?

Yes, sir I am. Now to change the subject the twins are getting ready to transition and things are not going so well for them. They just cannot make up their minds where they fit in, Carter and Ed are doing everything they can but the boys just won't choose.

Young Genman even hybrids can be very independent and very particular when it comes to their stations in life. Many times, one thought he was becoming a breeder then suddenly he carried and that was his life and likewise a carrier decided to be a breeder, sometimes they do both. The boys very well-educated, Carter has seen to that and if I know my grandsons will be just like their dad independent and make their own decisions.

Well Mason it seems like my son needs to sit down and discuss this matter with his sons. He needs to become a little more proactive the boy's lives. I know he stepped back to let Ed and Carter raise the boys but it will be better hearing from their dad not their surrogate dad for their father. Tim does not realize what kind of connection he truly has with his sons but it's about time he stepped up to the plate.

Mr. Ben, I have been telling him this for months now but you know Tim he likes to take the hands-off approach, maybe him getting pregnant again will help open up some of his Genman genetics, he is too much of a human when it comes to child rearing.

So, this guy did he found that wants to have a child but not a relationship is he a good quality?

Yes Mr. Ben he is very good quality, and excellent bloodlines but he wants to keep it quiet, so I can't say anything else and don't ask me.

Ben chuckled; he knew not to press his son-in-law for any more answers because there would be none Mason was true to fact his mate's confidant.

Tim entered into the office and everything was white hectic already Luther looked at his brother. Well, it's about damn time there are contracts to be gone over and items to be signed and something that sealed for your eyes only no one else. The legal team told me do not dare open it, what the hell is going on?

Dear brother I do have a personal life, and when you need to know you will be told yes, I have some legal business to attend to along with our family's business. Theodore Howard Wallace the third will be by a little while to sign contracts with the Z1. Then I have some personal business to attend to between myself and Mr. Wallace you will excuse yourself from the office during that point in time if you do not mind.

Okay I guess, I have not met this man but I don't have a good feeling. What kind of business would you have with a human dear brother?

The kind that is on a need-to-know basis and you will know when you need to know and that's the end of it.

This intrigued Luther even more; Tim had never been this secretive before he was always out front and open about everything in his life, he didn't care who knew what suddenly he had secrets that could not be spoke about he needed to talk to his parents.

Straight up 9 AM Ted along with Billy showed up at the office. Mr. Spinelli, I hope you do not mind but I brought my confidant and very good friend and junior partner along with me it's not that I don't trust people but what I've been through lately trust is not high on the charts.

Tim stood up and shook Ted's hand smiling, I completely understand knowing what you have been through with business matters and I do not blame you for bringing in a confidant. This is my brother Luther he will be sitting here in negotiations but I believe you redo the contracts you will find everything spelled out just the way you want it.

THW Industries will own 52% of the business and as stipulated 1% will be delegated to your confidant Mr. Billy Cross the remaining 48% will be equally divided between Z1 Ranch Limited, Hawthorne Industries Limited and Jake Traylor Construction Limited. Should the sole owner of TWH Industries expire company shall be managed by Mr. Billy Cross and Timothy Zachariah Spinelli in a trust for any minor children that may exist until they become to the point that they are able to take over day-to-day operations and management. And I do believe that was your specific stipulation.

Ted looked over the contracts and where it was indicated for him to sign, he put his signature, Billy placed his upon his denoted location and they were finalized by Tim who signed for the other partners. All of this was done via closed circuit television of the legal department. A representative of the legal department took the contracts and hand carried them to the office so that they could be filed.

I do believe that we have another legal arrangement that we do need to discuss Ted. This will be in private just between me, you and the lawyers.

Tim we can discuss everything before the lawyers and if we come to an agreement, I feel that we have a deal.

Tim looked at his brother, Luther at this time I will ask you and Mr. Cross to step out of the office so that we can continue with our portion of business.

Okay Tim Whatever you say, but I don't know you've never done this to me before.

Trust me dear brother you will know soon enough but for right now I need to keep this between myself and Mr. Wallace.

Luther and Billy walked out of the office and closed the door.

You don't have to worry about it the door is soundproof Ted so everything that is discussed here will be kept here the only people that know anything is Billy and I trust him with my life, my mate Mason which I don't doubt his loyalty and myself and you.

This is a standard birthing contract that is used by the Z1 all the time there are some additions to the backside of the contract that you need to take special note of. Mason will be supplying any and all nectar for the child he will nurse and care for the child while you are I are not around; you have to day-to-day and nightly care of the child. I have parental visitation should I choose to wish a visit. The boy will always be knowing who his parents are and how he came into existence and that he has three half-brothers. Now we need to talk about grandparent's rights, he has two sets and I'm afraid mind do want to be in his life no matter what. It's up to you to tell your grandparents about the child in the way he was conceived visitation by them is also up to you but they will never be denied unless they pose a risk. Your parents on the other hand have no rights at all visitation physical custody or otherwise when it comes to the child, they have demonstrated that they do not have the best moral character.

I don't have a problem with what the contract reads. In the addendums to the contract for as rights and visitations is perfectly fine with me. But we do need to think about when we decide to conceive the child.

Okay Ted that's great we'll just sign here and the conception will be sometime within the next two weeks that way gives you time to get settled I know there is a bungalow being prepared for you close to Billy's place and not too far from mine and Mason's place.

Ted and Tim both sign the contract. It was sealed in three envelopes and a runner from the legal department showed up to take possession making sure that it was filed properly and walked away in the vault.

Tim stood up and looked Ted, damn near big for a human.

Ted chuckled; you have no idea but for a Genman even a hybrid you're no slouch. I just hope conception goes okay.

It's simply a get it off, get it on and out, 99% chance conception were on our way. It's not like we're going to be making love is just a quick transaction and exchange of body fluids Ted.

Well Tim it's a little bit more than that I don't wham bam thank you ma'am, I take a while and I'm not a one-shot kind of guy, that's just getting started. A couple of my bed partners refused to ever go back to bed with me after I got finished. I don't go in for the rough stuff it's just I last a long time.

You forget I'm a hybrid, so we do what we got to do to please our partners in bed.

As the meeting concluded the office door was unlocked and Luther and Billy returned, Ted looked at Billy my dear friend I think I'm ready to celebrate signing of the contracts what you say we go into Township and get us a couple of triple-deckers with fries and a couple malteds? I need to build my energy up.

Whatever you say we just have to catch a transit.

Nonsense, here take my speeder it will get you there, Tim pitched Ted the keys is personal unit. Luther was shocked nobody ever touches him speeder not even his father.

Thank you Tim I'll take good care of her can I bring y'all anything back from town?

Tim chuckled, never thought you would ask, a triple-decker w/Mayo a double order of fries and a double malted.

What about you brother you want something speak now or starve later.

Just a regular burger with Mayo a single order of fries and a single malted you know I can't eat nears much as you can. Even when I'm caring I can't eat like that one bite it all goes right straight to the hips in the gut then to my butt.

Everybody chuckled as Ted and Billy left the place.

So, are you gonna tell me yet what kind of meeting this was between you and Ted? It's not Mr. Wallace anymore it's not Theodore it's now just Ted?

You promise not to tell the parents or anybody else I mean no one, Robbie or no one.

I promise, you been so damn secretive hell why not, what's up?

Well, and nine months in about two weeks you will be an uncle. Theodore Howard Wallace the fourth will be born. We were just finishing up the negotiations and contracts to carry. I agreed to carry a child for Ted. And before you ask Mason knows all about it, dad and father now I'm going to carry they just don't know who for. Billy approached me for Ted's behalf because he wishes to have a family does not want to get involved with a female human or even a genman in a relationship he wants to raise the child himself. I took one look at the guy and said hell yeah, I'll do it.

Do the size he's huge for a human he's huge. Can you imagine the size of the kid between your size and his size is going to massacre your vent?

I've had twins already, and I was a first timer. I don't see that I'm going to have a problem carrying the baby.

You Mason says is now but when he sees y'all bloated up with that damn good-looking man's kid he's going to be jealous.

No, he will because he's going be the child's Surrogate dad and he will be feeding. When I can't take care of him or Ted is out doing negotiations for the new plant Mason's gonna step in and serve as caretaker. I have direct care and visitation rights, father and dad have grandparent's rights, he will know his half-brothers and Ted's grandparents will have visitation. If something happens to Ted the child will come back to me Billy and Mason to care for and raise until he is of age and maturity to handle the business. And this is the major thing there's no outside influence when it comes to the business it still Z1 family owned.

You think of everything every angle when you negotiate a contract don't you?

It was not all me Ted had a big input other than his grandparents he has no contact with any family member and he wants to stay that way the child will be raised here on the Z1 educated here on the Z1 go to university here on the Z1 will take over his family business.

Yeah, but you forgot one thing, after you been caring this child for nine months, however long it takes you to birth that child and then holding your child the first time and trying to bond with you, handed over to the father?

Yes, I will, Ted will have a complete nursery set up at his place. And from everything that I've learned about him he might've been born a privilege that he was never given a chance. His father was a royal Asshole, his father lived and still lives of his grandparent's wealth. His father and other family members tried to steal his creation discredit and leave him broke with nothing he fought tooth and elegance his own family to stand tall for himself independent of the family the only ones he ever has had contact with is his grandparents.

So, I think I made a good choice for a biological father for the child.

If you care to do a little light reading study up on Theodore Howard Wallace the third and it will surprise you just because there's money doesn't mean there's joy and happiness.

After lunch Ted reported to the medical clinic for a brief exam and genetic coding. Dr. Allen thought nothing of it and sent all the samples to the lab. A newcomer so there would be any problem.

An urgent communication came into Caleb's computer, Ted's genetic samples matched a half sibling here on the ranch. He researched very quickly the match in his next call was placed to Ben at the main house.

Yes, Caleb how can I help you inquired Ben.

Sir I need to inform you that a long time ago three years ago basically you told me that if there was ever a match to a certain individual that was dropped off here in a delicate condition that you were to be contacted immediately.

Can you enlighten me slept since then?

Joey's name popped up in the cross referencing of a sample along with Howard's as a direct half sibling.

Joey's name did what?

Everybody's cross sampled everybody is encoded with DNA into the main frame. We have a new resident that register today and it shows a direct match is ½ sibling to Howard T.

Joey Wallace, birthing dad of Howard T Wallace are you telling me that we have ½ sibling it is just registered?

Yes, sir but this one is full human not a hybrid like Howard.

Tell no one Caleb about this and I mean no one, this is one that I will handle myself personally.

Ben picked up his communicator and called Robbie at the construction warehouse.

Hello Mr. Ben how can I help you?

Good afternoon, Robbie, I need you to send Joey Williams to the main house and he's to see me in the study A.S.A.P.

Joey knocked on the front door the main house, Jasper answered and escorted the young man to the study where Ben waited on him.

Joey quietly knocked on the door.

Come on in Joey responded Ben I am expecting you.

Joey quietly opened the door and slipped into the room. You called for me Sir?

Joey take a seat we need to talk and I believe that is well long overdue.

I don't understand Sir have I done something wrong or the boys are they in trouble.

No Joey don't fret, you have done nothing wrong and the boys are not in trouble this week but we do need to talk. Does the name Theodore Howard Wallace the third mean anything to you whatsoever?

Joey looked like a rackknar in the headlights of oncoming speeder, his eyes widened and his mouth opened unable to say anything.

I figured as much, now spill it young man because we have a problem. I just hope that I can have the right answers when the questions come along.

Billy and Ted were on the Promenade walking sipping on a cold frosted drink when a bunch of unruly teenagers came running through planned tag. One the young man stumbled and fell directly in to Ted.

Howard was all apologies begging for forgiveness as he looked up into the stranger's face. At that moment he froze in his mouth fell open. It was as if he had come face-to-face with an older him.

Likewise, Ted was shocked at seeing a younger version of himself, he would have guessed to be about 17 to 18 years of age, it was such an awkward age for him.

One of the other young hybrids hollered out to Howard, hey dude I didn't know you had an older brother. All Howard could do was stutter and try to apologize to Stranger.

It's quite all right, accidents do happen but I think that we need to speak to another, may I please have your name, your full name Howard?

Sir my name is Howard T Wallace; I am the son of my father whom I've never met, and my dad is Joey Wallace.

I figured as much, do you have time to have a seat and drink of frosted would me and my friend?

Dad says to stay away from strangers because ever know what they mean to do, but since you look like me or I mean I look like you and I'm on the Z1 I think he would be okay it.

Ted had a million questions for Howard and likewise Howard had million questions for Ted.

First of all, my name is Theodore Howard Wallace the third, son of Theodore Howard Wallace the second an evil, maniacal son of a bitch. I believe that your dad and I need to talk do you think that's possible?

Howard looked down at his watch, holy crapballs I'm late to pick the boys up at school, dad is going to kill me if he gets a call at work.

You have brothers?

Yes, sir two brothers actually half-brothers, Jamison T. and Lawrence T. For some reason he keeps on giving us all the middle initial T. You mind if I go pick them up and bring them back to meet you as they are not going to believe it when I tell them to someone that looks just like me. Jamison is on the pissed-off because he said one of me in the world was enough to last everybody a lifetime.

Okay don't make me come looking for you, I trust that you will honor your word return here so that we may continue our conversation.

Yes sir; you don't have to worry about me a Wallace never goes back on his word, if I did dad would beat me half to death.

True to his word 15 minutes later Howard returned to the Promenade area with his brothers in tow, he walked up to the table and turned to his middle brother Jamison. I told you and you ain't got no right calling me a liar. Now you better apologize.

Holy crapballs, he looks just like you only older. Let's hope you can keep your figure down because we know what's gonna happen soon as you transition. Knock. Knock you knocked you're going to be a chip off the old block you ain't going to be able to turn hard one down.

I might be like my father and do the knocking. We don't have any idea what our future holds for us until after we transition even you should know that.

Lawrence walked over to Ted and motioned for him to bring his face closer, little boy gently stroked Ted's cheek. Yep, he's real and judging from the stubble one hundred percent human.

That's a wonderful observation young man. Yes, I am 100% human. I knew your dad several years ago before all of this happened.

You knew our dad?

Yes, I did he worked for my grandparents. He was the best cabana pool boy we ever had. And my best friend, he got me through a lot of rough situations in fact if it hadn't been for him, I never would've applied myself in school and graduated much less go to college and graduate.

Jamison cocked his head, our dad did all that for you? Was there little hanky-panky going on and Howard the result?

No Jamison, Howard is not my son but I am leaning toward him being my half-brother. To find out that I need to talk to your dad.

Howard spoke; Jamison if dad heard you right now, he would skin you alive. Whatever Mr. Wallace and I are to each other the only way that will find out is if dad will finally divulge my biological father's name.

Howard my name is Ted just because I'm a little older than you listening to be all prim and proper you have my permission to refer back to me as Ted.


As Joey finished up his story then was in deep thought. Joey, I need to tell you something and I don't know how you feel about this but it's a done deal. The ranch is taken on the new partner in a new venture, THW Industries Limited is now in business with the Z1, Hawthorne, and Jake Traylor construction. Working in the construction office you will be a liaison between the two offices.

Why should that be a problem Mr. Ben? I am always professional when dealing with people.

THW industries Limited isn't just any company, it is wholly owned by Theodore Howard Wallace the third, I believe you know?

You mean Teddy is here on the ranch?

Yes, and he goes by Ted now days, he and Bill Cross were viewing the ranch and he will be assigned a living quarter based upon his needs.

Teddy is here walking around, oh crap the boys especially Howard he cannot run into Teddy until I talked to him. Let me make a phone call Mr. Ben I need to contact Howard I have to talk to him.

Go ahead call your sons, have them come to the main house and we can all sit here issue explain everything to Howard about his lineage. I knew it the moment I saw Ted, he and Howard are siblings am I not right?

It's not what you think Mr. Ben yes, they are siblings they are half-brothers but it didn't happen the way some people might think I have to explain this to Howard. Joey picked up the phone and dialed his son's number; Howard answered his communicator.

Yes dad; the boys are with me; we will come to the main house as instructed I will have Mr. Jarvis show us to the study. Is everything okay you don't sound right? Okay give us 10 minutes and we will be there.

Howard closed his communicator; well, if I was a cat in my name was dad, I would be very leery of all of the rocking chairs in the room.

So, your dad is in a panic mode Howard?

I haven't heard him concerned like this in a long sir, I don't think I've ever heard this concerned. Boys we have to go to the main house to meet dad.

Howard if you don't mind, I think I'm going to tag along with you boys, I haven't seen Joey in a while and maybe we need to talk in front of you boys so that there are no more secrets between anyone.

Please be my guest, I need to know about everything in my life.

Howard let me go ahead and tell you, if you are the product between your dad and my father which I know you are. I need to tell you the good the bad and the very ugly about him. Plus, there are two people that will be very pleased to know that you exist and they will be wanting to see you for themselves.

Who might that be Ted?

Your grandparents, Poppy and Nana Wallace. Nana has never quit looking for your dad since he disappeared, poppy has stood behind her 100% of the way even when my father, their son told them to forget your dad ever existed.

The boys along with Ted arrived at the main house, Jasper showed the four to the study. Howard gently knocked on the door and was told to enter by Mr. Ben. Ted waited outside of the door as the boys entered.

Joey had been crying and all three boys realized that. Howard to sit down so that we can talk I need to tell you the truth and it might upset you but you need to know.

Dad it's okay, I know I have ½ brother. I don't know what happened but I was the product of a relationship between Ted's dad and you. You know that he's been looking for you ever since you disappeared, his grandparents had been for you also. The only thing I need to know from you is will you tell us both the truth? He is waiting outside the door.

Joey almost passed out; I can't do it it's a secret that I was go to my grave with I can't everyone.

Ben spoke up; that's why I am here for young man. Lawrence, please let your brother in.

Lawrence walked to the door and opened it and Ted stepped inside the room.

Joey almost collapsed when he saw Teddy for the first time in almost 3 ½ years, he had filled out and become a very handsome young man. He stood up Ted walked up to and wrapped his arms around him and they both began to cry.

I didn't think I would ever see you again Joey, we looked everywhere for you Poppy and Nana even hired private detectives to look for you but never was anything found. We never thought that you were anything but human, we would've never thought of looking for a Genman. What the hell happened and is Howard my half-brother?

Ted; please take a seat and I will explain everything for Joey he is not up to dealing with this even at this time.

Ben looked at everyone concerned; to get this big one out of the way, Howard you are the younger half sibling of Ted. You and him shared the same biological father, and if ever get my hands on his neck I'll break it.

Now let me start; Joey went to work for your grandparents, he did all the parties he was the cabana boy, and the pool boy. Ted if you remember every six months or so Joey took a couple of days off complained that he wasn't feeling good and he might have a stomach virus. That is because he would start his cycle and he would lock himself in his room so that he did not endanger himself around others.

One day a founders day event was going on and Joey had to leave because he became sick think about that. I believe that was the day that you and your father had a little spat and few choice words causing you to storm off. In your absence your mother retired to the house your grandparents went to their suite and your father drink himself into a stupor. During his drunken state he showed up at Joey's door forcing it open. He took certain liberties of Joey during his cycle; Joey was unable to resist.

Your father passed out by the pool the next morning the house staff removed him. Your father was drunk but not that drunk. After the Founder's Day incident your father started to pain Joey regular visits. All Joey wanted to do was to do his job and be left alone but that's not what your father did. Joey recognized the symptoms and went to your father and informed him that he was with child. Your father was furious and demanded Joey get rid of it.

Joey tried to explain to your father that once Genmen are pregnant with the child the pregnancy must take its course. Your father was enraged and beat Joey, he beat him very badly if you remember the incident. Joey played it off that he was mugged, he still did not change Joey was pregnant. At four months of gestation, he gained a few pounds and no longer could wear the slim swimwear he wore at the pool and started wearing board shorts.

Your Father went to him once again and demanded he rid himself of the child, Joey refused explaining that the season was almost over and he could take a few months off birth child find a home and returned to work. Later that night Joey heard a knock at his door and thinking it was your father he blindly opened the door, two men covered his head and forced him from the house into the trunk of a vehicle.

A few things Joey's were put in a case so that it would appear that he had gone away for a long weekend. When he didn't return your father explained that Joey had found employment elsewhere and had left. Nobody believed your father but did nothing.

Joey was delivered to a man driving a vehicle, he was handed a large sum of money and told to take the young man to a remote location in the deserted land leave him there along with his case of clothing and never come around.

The gentleman that Joey was delivered to did not fulfill his job. He suspected that there was a problem and they were just trying to get rid of a little incident, you know not to cause embarrassment to a family that someone had knocked up a Genmen.

Instead brought Joey here, he gave me the pack of money along with Joey's belongings and Joey.

Zach and I listened to Joey's story, he was very hesitant to mention the man's full identity and even in that case he still did not tell us the whole truth. We set him up with the job and a place to live until Howard was birthed, a year later Jamison was the result of a failed relationship with a pureblood that everyone tried to warn Joey about. Year before Last year Lawrence came along as a result of an unwanted meeting with the townie when Joey was out for the weekend and started his cycle.

Joey has a very high hormone level that does not serve him well, he still looking for love. Ted had it not been for your father Joey probably could've lived a lifetime that your grandparents and never had the first child. He does not regret any of his children nor does he blame them at all for his situation.

Ted placed his arms around Joey and gave him a hug. We will Work through this and try to keep you out of trouble. That being said I think you for my half-brother, I have always wanted a brother and now I have three. There is time that we need to make up so I am going to spoil the boys, but first you need to realize that two people that love you very much and miss you immensely. I will not lie to them when they ask me if I've found anything out about you because they ask every time they call.

Ted who is that who would ever miss me I'm just a Genman nothing special.

Joey to Theodore and Gloria Wallace you were a member of the family, when you went missing a part of their heart went missing also, they never give up looking for you there was rewards posted there were accounts opened up in your name and a stipend went in there each month, you also own a percentage of the original company. They let no one know this but me after you had disappeared.

Not only have you given them one grandchild but they will claim all three and you can expect visits from them as soon as they find out.

I don't know Ted, having Mr. and Mrs. here what will they really think of me?

They will love you even more Joey. You are prayer that has been answered for my Nana and Poppy.

Well, I do believe my job here is done, if anyone needs anything I'm always available but I do believe that everything will be just fine. Tonight, you will dine at Donnie's place as guest of the Z1. And I don't want to hear anything about it it's already done reservations for five has been handled at 7:30 PM sharp be there dressed and enjoy the meal.

Joey knew all about Donnie's place, not only was it hard to get a reservation it was quite expensive and the food was superb. He just hoped the boys had enough etiquette to pass muster.

Howard chuckled; hey Jamison don't pick up the bone and nawl on the bone tonight. You need to show them that purebloods aren't unibrow knuckle draggers.

Jamison was very self-conscious about his eyebrows they were very pronounced almost resembling two furry caterpillars attached to his forehead.

Lawrence looked at his older brother, they are kinda thick bro you might want to mow them down at least trim the hedges and began laughing.

Ted decided step in, Jamison do not worry about anything you are far from bad looking in fact you kinda cute, in the human world you'd have to be all of the girls and some of the boys off with a stick. Don't let your brother's goat you into something. I once had a friend that had a very pronounced unibrow. It bothered him so much that he took a razor and decided to make a part in the middle, things didn't go exactly well and when he was trying to trim with electric trimmer, he gapped one side leaving him with one big brow on one side and a smaller one on the other side. Then he tried to straighten that up and it got even worse. By the time he was through he had shaved his entire eyebrow off.

He was the butt of all jokes for a while, but as his eyebrow grew back, he learned to live the way he was created. He met a young lady that felt sorry for him after the eyebrow incident and she taught him how to trim his eyebrows properly so that he looked like everyone else and wasn't special anymore.

Thank you, bro these to give me hell about my brows all the time.

You're welcome that's what brothers are for especially big brothers.

Coming soon the Z1 ranch P -- 108.
