Denton walked up to the Williams family and spoke directly to Kirby's parents, to help Kirby feel like one of the community here at the Z1 we're all one big family. I would like to invite him to attend a family supper tomorrow night at my parents' home at 5 PM, I can stop by and pick him up so that he doesn't get lost in the walk over and I will walk him back to your home after the meal has concluded if that would be okay.

Arlen looked at his wife and they both answered; it would be wonderful for Kirby to get to know the place and the wonderful people who live here.

Kirby was ecstatic and thanked his mom and dad for their approval then he ran and hugged Denton thanking him for the invite. Denton was a little surprised by the young human's joyful manner.

Upon arrival at home Denton informed his dad that they would have an additional guest tomorrow night for supper. He explained to Francis who the person was and why he was being invited, the young man needed to see what it was like to live in a blended Genmen household.

Francis reluctantly agreed with Denton he just hoped that tempers didn't flare too much when the young Houston and Dr. Caleb were confronted about their actions in the bedroom.

Houston and Caleb were sitting on the sofa when Howie delivered the invite for supper that was not optional.

Houston suddenly felt like a little child being called down by a parent for a scolding of epic proportions.

Caleb laid his arm around Houston and told him not to worry about it, we can handle this together you and I. That's one thing they're going to have to get used too.

Houston kissed Caleb's lips and thanked him for everything, Howie let out a deep sigh, you two are too mushy for me I hope my Oleg isn't sappy.

Houston threw a pillow at Howie; you know you hope he is all over you and keeps you wound up and pounded down. Go ahead and admitted if you had your way right now, you'd walk out that door and find him, and ride him to he couldn't get it up again.

Howie had to admit that Houston was correct; but a promise is a promise and I will not break my promise to Mr. Zach because I don't want to ever get on the wrong side of that man and disrespect him.

As a loud knock came to the door the three of them jumped, Howie went to open the door to see who was there. He smiled at Mr. Zack and invited him inside.

What Sir; do we have the pleasure of your company for today.

Well Howie; today I'm here to talk about you and your future.

Howie suddenly looked worried.

Oh, don't worry son it's not bad not by a long shot. And in fact, it is a very good thing for you that I am feeling generous. I had a talk with someone today and let's say it went very well so if you get up and walk up to the door and open it there's someone waiting to meet you.

Howie didn't know where to run to his bedroom and hide or lose it and run to the front door yank it open. But mostly he wanted to throw up and he put his head between his legs calming his stomach. I can't do it; I just can't do it I cannot meet him I'm not ready.

Well; I told him if you open the door there would be a future if the door is not opened then the two you never will have a future, so son you have a big choice to make for the both of you. For the next two hours he will be here is your guest in your home so that the two of you can get to know each other then he'll go home. But if you choose not to see him, he'll go back home and will never bother you again.

Mr. Zack this is not fair you put me on the spot, of course I want to see him, I want to meet him in person but I'm scared what if I'm not good enough, what if he doesn't like me for some reason, I'm not perfect at all.

Howie; have you ever thought that Oleg hasn't been thinking the same things, what if he's not the man of your dreams. What if he lets you down and doesn't measure up to what you have built them up to be? I suggest that you get off your ass and go to that front door and at least give the young man a chance.

Howie cautiously walked up to the door; his hand was shaking as he began to turn the doorknob as he opened the door Oleg came into view for the first time in his life as a person not as a dream.

Oleg smiled and held out a bouquet of flowers for Howie.

Howie accepted the flowers and burst out into tears, he walked up to Oleg and wrapped his arms around his future mate. The height difference was a little bit so when Oleg returned the embrace his hands landed directly on Howie's ample ass and he firmly grip his cheeks as he leaned down and kissed Howie for the first time.

Houston couldn't help himself but snicker a little bit, Mr. Zack we need to get these two inside off the porch before they give everyone an X-rated show and tell.

Come on inside you two and have a seat so we can lay out the ground rules so that nobody gets caught in a compromising position like these two here did.

Both Houston and Caleb blushed because they knew he was correct.

Zack stood up; for the next two hours before you will be here in this house all together, there will be no hanky-panky going on here and if you feel that you cannot trust yourself someone needs to walk out the front door before everyone gets in trouble. I believe you will act like responsible adults and that means no closed doors and definitely no exchange of any bodily fluids or appendages.

Howie spoke up; Mr. Zack that is one thing that you do not have to worry about Sir, I made you a promise and that was until after my six-month cycle I would do no copulation of any sort with anyone. And that's one promise that I intend to keep.

Zack said his goodbyes and left the two couples alone in the cabin and Madison standing guard out front.

In his deep baritone voice Oleg asked Howie to show him the pictures that Mr. Zach had spoken of.

Houston giggled; he needs to show you the full-length oil painting he has of you in your total splendor.

Howie turned about three shades of red, Caleb stood up and motioned for Oleg to come to Howie's bedroom door so he could see for himself.

Oleg was at a loss for words, Howie had painted every detail including the scar on his right hip where he slid down as a young boy and hit a rock which cut him quite badly leaving the jagged scar.

Oleg returned to the sofa and had a seat and waited for Howie's return.

Howie set down beside him and opened up his sketch and portfolio book. Page after page was full of Oleg's image. It was though as he was looking into his thoughts and was right next to him in every situation.

Oleg couldn't believe that this beautiful young genman hybrid was his soulmate, he was truly blessed to have in his life such a fine young man.

Houston brought out a tray of ice cold Coolwater and set it down on the coffee table. He handed everyone their glass and made a toast to the future. The four set there like old friends who were just catching up after being separated for a long time.

Oleg was very interested in Caleb and Houston's romance he remarked; talk about being at the right place at the right time with the right person you two are blessed. My questions of long have finally been answered, Howie is my forever after. Now we just have to wait until his promises have been fulfilled to Mr. Zach and we can finally be together as one the way we've always meant to be.

Before the two couples realized it, time was up. Oleg stood up and took Howie into his arms and kissed his lips tenderly. Until we can be together again my love, this will have to do.

Oleg walked to the door holding Howie's hand and the two parted their ways. It was kind of corny but Howie Blew him a kiss which Oleg caught and held it close you to his heart. Madison drove the big guy back to the dormitory and gave him Mr. Zack's strict instructions and warnings.

Madison you and Mr. Zack have nothing to worry about, now that we found each other, neither one of us will do anything to jeopardize our future together no matter what, that you can take to the bank.

Madison went to go find Mr. Zack to see if there was anything else needed before he went home to his mate and children.

Saturdays are an off day and very relaxed around the Z1, and today was no exception Earl was out and about with Shannon taking a walk with assistance of the Walker.

Caleb and Houston were out when they ran in to the O'Malley's. Caleb inquired about Shannon and how he was doing.

Shannon in a broken slurred language responded; some days good, some days not so good but every day that I'm with my Earl they are the best.

Caleb told Earl to bring Shannon to the clinic on Monday so that they could sit down and make a proper rehab schedule for him. There's one thing that I'm good at and that's cardiac rehab after people suffer a stroke and or a debilitating cardiac event, they need special guidance and a special routine and that's what I'm going to do for Shannon and you.

Earl started to cry and thanked Dr. Allen for any help he could give them so Shannon could get back to a life worth living to the fullest.

Caleb and Houston bid their goodbyes and continued on their little tour of the Z1.

Caleb could not believe at the gardens that were there and the agricultural departments were just unbelievable. Such amounts of fruits and vegetables being raised in smaller areas was astronomical. And the quality of the texture and taste were nothing that he had ever experienced before.

There was one thing that was a little unsettling to Caleb and that was every Genmen wanted to sniff him. Houston told him not to worry that's how they remember especially the purebloods it comes in handy when you're in trouble and they need to find you. I smell what I smelled with you.

And just what do I smell like?

A Zadar tree that has been freshly cut so you can smell the wood and freshness of the bark. And I can tell you for me that is a very big attraction, now what do I smell like.

Caleb responded; the field of fresh spring flowers all different varieties that's what attracts me to you.

Well; there you have it we have one more thing in common, we smell good to each other and that makes us more attracted.

Houston took out his communicator and called Howie to check up on him.

Howie picked up the communicator and heard Houston's voice, I know you're just doing what we're supposed to do for each other but I can tell you right now I am fine here at the house, I'm cleaning and rearranging my bedroom. I popped a frozen meal into the oven so that it would be ready at the time the two you got back from your little walk.

Houston told his roommate that they wouldn't be long and if he needed anything to let them know when they would pick it up on the way back.

It was almost 4 o'clock when Denton decided to go pick up Kirby and walk him back to his parents' home for supper. When Denton arrived at the Williams home Kirby was waiting dressed to the T.

Kirby said goodbye to his parents and Denton assured them that he was in good care they would see them later. As Kirby and Denton were walking back to the house, they were just making idle conversation Kirby was asking about everything when a young genman ran up to them and asked Denton who the new kid was. Well Sheldon this here is Kirby he just came to live here on the Z1 yesterday with his parents and siblings.

Sheldon held out his hand and shook hands with Kirby, glad that you're here about time I had someone near my own age to talk to since we're near time there's a lot to talk about.

Kirby looked at Sheldon and asked him what you mean we're near time.

You know transition time it'll be nine months or so before I start mine and from the looks of it, you'll be maybe a month behind me.

Denton had to step in, Sheldon I don't mean to let you down but Kirby here is pure human so he won't transition like you a pure blood.

Sheldon's mouth fell open; holy shit balls all this here is human. Talk about a total waste of a good piece of meat.

Kirby did know if he should take the last sentence as a compliment or an insult so he asked Sheldon what he meant by a waste of meat?

Sheldon smiled; it was not rude of me and I'm sorry if you thought it was but you're just so damn cute and there shall be a many young Genmen after you before their transition they will offer their vent up to you to open them up because you definitely have it swinging young man.

Kirby turned red as he blushed by Sheldon's last statement.

Sheldon realized he had gone a little too far and embarrassed the young human with his brashness. But it's okay with me, I'm fine with you being human just as long as my parents don't find out because their purebred bigots. They want all of us to stay separate in our own little corner of the world yet we live here were Mr. Zack gives everyone a chance at love. We can keep to ourselves if it's okay and I'll be your friend because I need one bad, I want to find out about other species that inhabit our planet.

Kirby and Sheldon shook hands again and they agreed to be friends. Denton informed the two boys that it was time for them to go for supper, Sheldon said goodbye and left.

Kirby looked at Denton and asked him; what do you think about Shelton?

Well let's say it this way, I believe that Shelton wants to become more than just friends with you, what some people would call friends with benefits because he is at that point in his life that he wants to discover just like you are. And that my friend is between the two of you, only what you do when you're together just be careful and don't get caught because his parents are jerks to put it politely.

Kirby let it mull over in his mind for a few minutes; I understand it's just like with the babysitter you're supposed to look but not to touch, but I touched her a lot.

Denton reached over and scuffed his hair up, you're a dirty little rascal. I always wanted a good human babysitter that way I could practice too. Now we need to get to the house because supper will be ready.

Denton and Kirby arrived at 4:50 PM two steps ahead of Houston Caleb and Howie. Oh, I see that you're not about to be late are you Houston.

Not on your life big brother, I know better than that especially with dad carrying again so soon.

Yeah; Houston about that Dr. Matt has dad coming in every week for an exam because of what happened last time after you were born and that dad didn't let his body rest in between conceptions.

I was going to discuss that with dad this week and maybe at this meal, I will make myself available as often as I can to go with him. I'm going to talk to the boss at work on Monday and tell him what's up with dad.

That would be great Houston but you know that dad is going to pitch a bitch fit and tell you, that you don't need to miss any work for him, he's going to be just fine and he'll whine and he'll whimper but you know it'll make his day.

Caleb spoke up; I can always make time in my busy schedule between patients to be there for your dad if he'll let me.

Yeah, the olive branch would be nice after what you too did, but don't let him take a hold of you and beat you with it.

This broke out into a round of laughter between the boys as they walked into the house.

Caleb had brought a bouquet of flowers freshly cut from the garden's to Francis as a gesture of kindness and goodwill and presented them to him.

Well would you look at this, someone who knows how to treat an expectant Genmen like royalty and make them feel very wanted and appreciated, I thank you Caleb and son welcome to the family. Francis hugged Caleb's neck and whispered in his ear, if you break his heart, I'll be breaking your neck.

Caleb returned the favor and whispered back, I would never break Houston's heart not in a million years, that you don't have to worry about.

When Francis wasn't looking Denton leaned over and whispered to Caleb; great comeback dude because he wasn't kidding. Neither was I Denton, neither was I your brother means a lot to me in fact he completes me.

Francis looked at Denton and inquired; are you going to introduce your guest to me or do I have to ask him for his name? Such rudeness out of my oldest son.

Dad I want you to meet Kirby Williams he's 16 in three days and he's just moved here with his family, his mom his dad and his two siblings are from the city.

Francis shook young Kirby's hand and welcomed him to the Z1 ranch and told the young man; I hope we don't disappoint you and we can help you in any matter there is.

Kirby smiled and thanked Mr. Roland for his hospitality and the delicious meal that he smelled. It's so much better than the food we were grateful to get at the shelter where we had to live after losing our apartment.

Francis shook his head; no child should ever have to go without a home or without a hot meal in their stomachs. Just remember the door to the Roland home is always open to you just knock, you and your siblings are welcome at any time. Baby Phoenix will be growing quick so I'll have my hands full and but I'll be here if you need to talk.

Thank you Mr. Roland I'm sure that I'll make a pest of myself. But I'll try not to bother you.

Kirby have you met and the other young Genman around here yet even though you arrived here yesterday I'm sure that some have been slinking around and scoping out the latest import.

Yeah; he's already met one, young Sheldon on the way over here he stopped us and wanted to be introduced I don't know if it's friends or frenemies. Only time will tell but he sure was taken a good look at what this young man had to offer him.

Francis chuckled than Lester spoke up; you be careful with that one, he means well but his parents will they are mean and nasty pair. I'm surprised the boy's come out levelheaded as much anti-hybrid and human propaganda they spit out especially the Dad Patrick.

Now father scolded Francis; you know that we try to get along with everyone and they are entitled to their opinions as long as they don't bring violence into the situation that's what the Z1 is about trying to live in harmony with those who think different from you.

Yes' dad I know but I was just trying to warn the boy not to get crossways with the parents even though Shelton is a very good young man.

Well since there's just a few of us tonight, go ahead and start supper and if anybody else comes around to visit they grab a plate from the kitchen and set down or they can go in the kitchen and eat after it's put up in there cold.

Everyone set down and bow their heads and Lester said blessings over the meal.

The dinner table was quite noisy but you could hurt a pin drop when Francis broke the ice. So, Houston I hear that you and the doc here got together the other day and decided to make one of yourselves. And also know that you two been put on notice by Mr. Zack that that is a permanent thing, there is no option out and I for one am and totally agreement with him. And that's all I have to say on the matter, if anyone else wishes to speak on it let them speak now or forever keep their mouth shut if they want their heads left on their shoulders.

Not a word was spoken by anyone in the meal continued. Everyone froze in their tracks when Kirby inquired; what do you mean by make one of yourselves Sir?

Caleb cleared his throat; may I answer this please? Houston and I are staying together as a couple and when the time is right, we might even have a child together if we are so blessed.

So, you two hooked up the main item of yourselves, folks do that all the time so what's the big deal other than you both kinda young.

Francis smiled; there's not a big deal at all, in fact I'm glad that Houston found someone that will be with him because he loves him. Everyone started eating the meal again in silence.

One by one they all thanked Francis for the delicious meal, Kirby responded; mom's not too bad with the simple things but she never could make a dinner like this it was fantastic.

Kirby told his parents all about the meal he arrived home and that he had met a new friend on the way over, he felt they could be just more than regular friends maybe even great friends.

Monday rolled around and Kirby was off to school, on the walk over he met up with his new friend Sheldon. The two made small talk about the City and what it was like to live there. School was just like any other school, no one liked it but it was required.

Kirby and Sheldon set together at lunch time and shared their meals. Each sampled a different item from each other's lunch, Sheldon really liked the vegetable sticks Mrs. Williams and put in the lunch for Kirby. You know we get out of school at 2 o'clock and my parents aren't home until 5 PM when they get off work, we can hang out a little bit and get to know each other better.

That would be great Sheldon but I have to be at home to watch my little brother and sister you can always come over your parents don't have to know about it unless you want to tell them.

Cool if it's okay and I don't mind hanging out with you and your family at your place but my parents cannot find out about it my dad would lose it. He just has a problem with all humans, my father puts up with it because he loves him.

So, the two decided to hang out incognito with each other.

The days flew by before they knew it 3 months had passed.

Everything was going perfect Houston and Caleb were getting along. Sometimes Houston was grouchy but he was always tired after work. Ben didn't spare him and worked his little butt hard.

Caleb received an urgent text from the head housekeeper and his parents' home. Mr. Allen please call me it is vitally important that you contact me and only me. ASAP.

Caleb called Mrs. Claxton and asked her why she got a hold of him and what was the problem since he had been expelled from the family.

Master Caleb, it's your mother she is gravely ill and in the hospital at Hawthorne Memorial. Your father has blocked all visitors but I fear that she has not much time left, please she wants to see you she's at a loss for why you left and you have not contacted her.

Mrs. Claxton I was thrown out of the house and told never to return; I chose my medical career over what my father wished for me to do. Mother has always been so healthy what happened?

I don't know your father brought in his own doctor to tend to her why she was here at the house and one day when he was gone and she collapsed and I called emergency. They took her to the hospital and she's been there ever since in a private room your father won't let anyone see her, I am begging you please come check on your mother before it's too late I don't trust Mr. Allen anymore.

Caleb had it on speaker and Houston listened to the conversation. Houston went to the closet and took out a travel bag and walked to the bedroom. Mrs. Claxton I will leave on the first transit in the morning and will be in the city within two hours at the hospital tell no one that I am in transit. I will get my answers to what is wrong with my mother.

Thank you very much Mr. Caleb she will be delighted to see you before she goes. The phone then hung up.

Caleb got up and went to the bedroom where he found Houston packing away suits of clothes sorted by days. Can't have my man looking raggedy, you need to look the best you can for your mom and find out what's going on.

That you can depend on, I need to make a call to Dr. Smithers and have him check in on mom before I arrive no matter what my father says, she's in the hospital and Dr. Smithers is the head of the hospital so he can get started on helping me.

Caleb went to the living room and made the phone call; the two men spoke at length about Mrs. Allen in her condition Ron said he would return to the hospital and check on it tonight and if there was anything that he didn't like he would put a monitor on her room and even move her to a secure location if needed.

Within the hour Ron called back and told Caleb to get to the hospital first thing he was definitely needed by his mom.

It was a restless night Caleb tossed and turned, Houston held onto his love and told him everything would be all right.

Houston got up early and cooked a meal and had three vials of fresh Genman nectar ready to go. Caleb when you get there, I need to do something for your mother, this has healing powers put three drops in a small glass of cold water and help your mother sip it. Then take two drops and place it directly under her tongue you should see an improvement if you don't see one take the third vile and put it directly into her IV bag so that goes through her system. Rupert said; If you see a change in your mother's condition then it will mean that she's been poisoned. I don't want to think the worst of your father but I pray for your mother's health.

Caleb took Houston into his arms held him tight and kissed him deeply, you are more than I ever deserve. I'll keep you informed about what's going on in the city with my mom till I see you again here's one more kiss to hold you.

Lester was little surprised to see Caleb at the bus stop but when he found out why, Lester made sure that the transit didn't waste any time getting to the city.

Denton noticed Caleb getting on the bus with a suitcase, something wasn't right. Doc wouldn't pull out; he knew how much Houston meant to him.

After a quick visit with Houston finding out what was going on, Denton went to Ed and asked for a ride to hospital so that he could support Caleb, because if his mother was really going to pass, he needed someone that he considered family to be around.

When Caleb arrived at the Hospital, he found waiting for him in the lobby Chief of Staff Ron Smithers, Ed Hawthorne and Denton.

Didn't want you to think you were on your own bro. We're here for you.

Caleb do you have the items sent by Rupert on you now, if so, we need to get them up to your mother's room. Much to your father's dismay I had her moved to a higher level of care area and he can only visit once every four hours for 10 minutes. We're still waiting on the toxicology reports to come back from blood, skin and hair samples that we took of your mother.

Caleb took the staff elevator up to the 10th floor where his mother was being cared for, once upon arrival he realized just how grave her condition was and made a phone call to Rupert so that they could converse about the treatment plan he had devised.

Rupert was on videoconference within minutes, Caleb filled him in on every one of her vitals for the past 12 hours and what the staff there had done for her. She was unable to ingest any kind of liquids by mouth.

Caleb you need to have Dr. Smithers put the solution in her IV bag that they have hung. This will alleviate any liability for anyone if it doesn't work, I wish we had all of the results from the toxicology reports but I feel that time is of the essence and your mother needs this. Right now, I'm getting ready to board the second jumper, Carter and I are on our way when I get there I'm going all out. I need a lab to work out of and I need for trustworthy lab techs.

Rupert responded Ron; when you arrive, you will have the whole hospital at your disposal don't worry about anyone or anything if they get in your way they're gone.

Caleb was on the phone constantly with Houston, every break Houston got he was talking to Caleb keeping him sane.

Houston reached down and picked up a bundle of wood and was toting it outside to the skids to be relocated when he had a pain in his left side. He didn't see the hole and he stumbled causing him to lose his grip on the lumber and it came crashing down on his left ankle and knee.

Three guys helped lift the bundle off of Houston's ankle and leg which was no doubt broken.

Ed come flying out of the office, he helped stabilize Houston's lower leg and ankle. They loaded him up in Ed's speeder and carried him to the clinic.

The only thing Houston complained about was the twinge of pain in his left side and the bumps when Ed hit them. Howie accompanied his roommate to the clinic.

Lex was assessing the situation along with Matt, he needed some imaging done but before that could be arranged, they needed to verify that he wasn't expecting.

Houston laughed, like that's going to happen you know what you said you know what Dr. Wooten found out there's a snowball chance and nowhere that I'm pregnant. But if you just feel that you have to waste a test, we can do it.

Lex gently repositioned Houston so that the test could be ran, he took the swab and inserted it into the container no sooner than he hit the fluid at the bottom of the vial it turned bright blue.

Matt looked at Houston, where exactly are you having these pains at one that caused you to lose your grip on the lumber. Houston lifted his shirt and point out to the spot where the little spasms had started earlier that day. That took the and scanner and scanned the area.

Houston; I need you to lay back on the gurney and lift your shirt I need to take a better exam of you with the enhanced imager.

Houston followed Matt's orders after all he was a doctor, he knew what he was doing.

Matt put the imaging solution on Houston abdominal region on his left side where the spasms were located at. Matt chuckled out; bingo we have a winner here we hit the jackpot.

Lex's mouth fell open without a doubt Houston was 100% carrying. The positive pregnancy test along with the image that was in Clearview for everyone to see, there was no doubt.

Houston studied the image on the monitor and looked at Matt and asked; what the hell is that?

Well; Houston you have a problem it seems that all that attention Dr. Caleb Allen has been paying you has paid off.

What the hell you talking about Dr. Stirling?

Howie was trying not to laugh at his roommate, how could he be so smart and so dumb at the same time.

Matt thought for a second and decided to explain it to Houston. Two people get together one inserts himself into the receptive other one after a lot of movement the inserting partner releases his sperm into the receptive partners incubation chamber, and when it's the correct time the receptive partner will release his eggs. When the sperm comes in contact the eggs they are fertilized and the receptive partner conceives a child with the inserted partner.

Houston had a puzzled look on his face. Doc what the hell did you just say?

Howie couldn't stand it no longer and blurted out; Caleb knocked your dumbass up, that's what he's saying you are pregnant.

That can't happen, Dr. Wooten said it would be impossible for me to get pregnant.

Matt looked at the totally confused Houston; no what Dr. Wooten said it would be almost impossible for you to conceive a child, not totally impossible and the scanner doesn't lie there he has right there, I would say you're almost 2 months along.

Houston laid-back his head for a second, can you just work on the leg and let me think about this, how can I tell Caleb; he's with his mom is very sick and may not make it. What am I going to do?

Howie spoke up; were going to do a video conference call in about two seconds and he's going to get a live feed. Dr. Stirling is going to show Caleb his son that you are carrying and if his mother is still able to comprehend, she will know that she has a grandchild on the way and if she doesn't make it at least she will know.

I've got my pad with me right now and I'm going to call him, you just lay there and shut up I've got this handled.

Howie went into video mode on his video pad, he called his father to see if he was near Caleb and his mom. Ron answered his son's video call and asked if everything was okay. Yes, father everything here is okay at this moment but are you near Caleb?

Yes, son I'm in the room with them right now, his mother is doing okay but she's got a long way before she's out of the woods at all.

Father tell Caleb not to get upset but Houston had a little accident at work he dropped up bundle of lumber on his lower left leg and he broke it along with his ankle. We are here at the clinic right now and Caleb needs to talk to him, Houston has some more information for him.

Caleb couldn't get to the pad fast enough, are you okay do I need to come back home. Mom is very sick but if you need me, I'm on my way.

No; I'm okay Lex and Dr. Stirling are keeping an eye on me and working on stabilizing my foot and leg. You know Who is here with me, he hasn't let me out of his sight since it happened. But that's not the reason I called you, a broken leg is nothing for a genman we heal quickly. Before they could do the x-ray imaging, they have to do other test and I'm a turn the pad around and I want you look at the screen. And I want you to show it to your mom so she can see it also.

Caleb was a little worried; did he know what was up?

Caleb this is Matt; I'm doing the scan here on the left side of the abdominal region of Houston because he's had a couple of pains in some twinges, that is what caused him to drop the bundle of lumber. If you see right over here in the lower left quadrant of his abdomen hears was causing him all the problem. It's approximately seven weeks.

Caleb paused for a moment, what is approximate seven weeks and what is the dark blot I can't see it very well.

That my young man is none other than Caleb Francis Allen your son.

There was a sudden jumble of the video screen, Caleb had dropped the pad temporarily. What do you mean my son? I thought they told Houston he couldn't conceive?

Well; it's like this, Dr. Wooten said that it was almost impossible not totally impossible and with you two going at it like a couple of rackknars in the middle of the street he released an egg and the rest is history.

Houston took the pad back, I'm sorry I didn't know it was going to happen but it did, I hope you're not disappointed in me.

Caleb had tears streaming down his cheeks, I could never be disappointed in you Houston you have made me the happiest man in the world. My mother knows that she's going to be a grandma now and just maybe this will help her pull through. I am so proud of you and when I get back home, I'm going hold you so tight you're never getting away from me. I don't mean to cut this conversation short but the tests are coming back and I needed go over them. Rupert is on his way to crank up a lab and help mom, take care your leg and take care of our son, I love you more than you'll ever know.

The video pad went blank. Ron apologized for his pad going dead but he would have it charged and it was available at any time to converse with Houston.

The first batch results came back, the hair follicle test showed that she had been poisoned over a long period of time. The blood labs also showed high concentration of six different poisons. This was not an accident this was intentional. Ron was highly upset and Caleb stared at the test in disbelief.

Ron Smithers was highly suspect that this was an attempted murder. He called a friend he had in the department and filled him in on everything that had taken place. Knowing the family and the status that they helped in the city and government areas it was Quiet they trap was going to be set so the person that intended to murder Mrs. Allen would be exposed.

Denton was standing outside of the room when a very robust man with an equally big mouth started to scream at the nurse's wanting his time to visit his wife to be private. The head nurse denied him access and said that the room was off limits to everyone but the medical staff treating her, family included. The robust man made the mistake of shoving the nurse and attempting to gain entrance into the room. Denton placed his arm in front of the doorway and told the gentleman; you are very rude and you never push a female ever. And as far as you getting into this room you will try to come through me; but you will not make it.

The senior Allen attempted to push his way through Denton but it didn't work. Denton held him at arm's length and told him to go on back to the waiting room and wait, the doctors would be out and speak to him there, but he would not enter the room.

The senior Allen made the mistake when he attempted to strike Denton, he found himself suddenly sliding across the floor on his ass as he was decked. Denton turned to the nurse and asked if she was okay, did they need to call security. The head nurse smiled and replied; if he heads back to the waiting area and doesn't cause any more problem he can stay there, if not he's out of this hospital.

The robust man started swearing at everyone saying that he would have all their jobs he would own this hospital; he was rich and they would do what he wanted them to do.

During the blustering and swearing, Carter and Rupert got off the elevator. Carter picked up his phone and made one call Seven security officers were there within minutes. The senior Allen was escorted off of the floor and down to the entrance of the hospital where he was put out on the sidewalk. He was informed by the hospital administration that he was barred from the hospital for the duration of his wife's treatment, she had a blood relative there who was watching out for her best interest and he was no longer allowed into the hospital or on any grounds that belong to the Hawthorne Memorial Hospital or any of its subsidiaries. Any attempt to reenter the hospital would be considered trespassing and he would be escorted to jail; the blood relative has jurisdiction over top of you do not push the matter Mr. Allen.

No sooner than Rupert had arrived he started analyzing the compounds and the results from the toxicology reports and screens. He called for more blood to be drawn and more hair samples once again, also nail samples were needed. Within 20 minutes he isolated the toxins within her body and started to administer the antidotes for them.

In my personal and professional opinion, he relayed to Caleb your mother has been poisoned over a period of time, the legal authority needs to be notified that this was not an accident but an attempted murder.

Caleb set there for a minute and took all of it in, why would somebody try to do this to his mom and most importantly was it who he thought it was what was it to gain.

As his mother became more aware of her surroundings and verbal, she dropped the biggest bombshell. Your father was afraid he would lose everything unless you were out of the picture and I disowned you. I refused to this on my only child and that infuriated him. I had investigators following him for the last six months something was up and I didn't know what, I become sicker I couldn't do as much then he found out about the investigators.

He has a townhouse across the city and he really thought he covered his tracks but when he used company funds to purchase it furnish it and do other things, he couldn't hide them from my forensic accountants. You have a half-brother Caleb; your father has a mistress who bore him another son and he has been siphoning off funds from my father's company for a long time. I started divorce proceedings before I became sick but I don't know if I can go through it.

Mother you're just fine you are not sick, this is a very good friend of mine his name is Rupert, he broke down genetic sequencing and found exactly what you are being poisoned with. Yes, I said poisoned, you have been slowly poisoned for quite a while and the toxicity has been gathering in your body until you collapsed. Luckily dad was not at home and Mrs. Claxton had you removed from the home and sent here for medical treatment. I have a decision to make and I need your help on how to proceed.

Mrs. Allen removed her auction mask and made the following statement; Bury the son of a bitch, may he burn in hell for what he's done, call my lawyer and all of the boards. He will no longer be part of the company that my father founded and that is your rightful inheritance.

Caleb was shocked he had no idea that the company belonged to his mom and her family, he was always told by his father that he made the company he founded it. Nothing but lies ever come out of that man's mouth and now he cheated on his mom and produced another child with another woman how dare he do that to his mom.

Rupert came into the room with a new IV bag and it was a beautiful shade of blue. This is special IV Mrs. Allen it is a trade secret of Genmen technology but it will make you well once again granted that you will not be well right away and you must have aftercare but by this time tomorrow you will definitely feel 1000% better.

Within 30 minutes the lawyer showed up and informed Gladys that all accounts, all money transfers and everything else from the personal accounts and business accounts had been stopped and others had been seized since they were obtained maliciously. What shall we do with a townhouse that's inhabited by the young lady and the boy?

Have someone pick her up along with the boy and bring her here to the hospital I want to meet her. Have the home blocked by security and no one is allowed to enter the property until I decide replied Gladys.

Within the hour a very frightened young lady with a young lad of no more than eight entered her hospital room.

So; we finally meet Stephanie, I've known about you and the young lad for quite some time I also know that you are from the secretarial pool of the headquarters and that's where you met my husband. Thankfully the child was spared and he favors you.

I'm so sorry Mrs. Allen I never intended it to go this far when I conceived Richard, I was ordered to get rid of him that I refused. I don't need anything in life other than to make sure my son has a roof over his head and food in his belly for that I will return to work.

Richard come here son I want to meet somebody. The young boy walked cautiously to the lady's bedside. Gladys took his hand; this here man standing next to me is your brother. You will look up to him for guidance when you are in need. Your father is gone away and probably will never be seen again but you have a big brother to lean on when you need him.

Caleb walked around the bed and took to one knee and shook Richard's hand, my name is Caleb and I am your big brother I don't live around here but I'm just a short transit bus ride away in the countryside. I expect great things of you since you're my brother.

Richard like any young child expressed his gratitude by hugging Caleb's neck and telling everyone that he had a big brother finally.

Stephanie stood there with tears streaming down her cheeks waiting for her punishment.

Stephanie the home that you live in you may continue to live in for now it belongs to your son with his big brother as the conservator. You will have a staff that will continue to be with you so that you and the boy can continue to live in what is befitting of the boy. But you will have to go back to work like you said and it'll be back in your previous position but you will answer to me. Richard will receive the best education possible and he will receive a full education about the aspects of the world that we live in and all those who inhabit it. If these simple rules are agreeable with you and we have a bargain but Mr. Allen is prohibited from contacting you or stepping foot on the grounds after he gets out a prison.

Being the dutiful person that Stephanie was she told Mrs. Allen that if there was anything that she needed concerning personal finances account information's or anything else concerning Mr. Allen's ill-gotten gains she had all the information put back in storage unbeknownst to him. I've got account numbers; I've got institutions names he has funds stashed and he had even under Richard's name with him as the conservator.

Gladys shook her head and said thank you. You can go with my lawyer that way the two you can converse, Richard is free to stay here so that he can get to know his brother better, eight years is a lot to catch up on.

Stephanie remarked to Mrs. Allen, the personal security that you have out front. The young man that's very nice-looking and very strong was a great idea. I have no doubt that until Mr. Allen is apprehended and locked away, he will try again. Please be careful.

Caleb started to chuckle; he's not security he is my overprotective brother-in-law Denton who wouldn't let me be here by myself knowing the past history.

Gladys smiled; send the young man in I need to thank in person. Caleb opened the door and asked Denton to step in for a couple minutes.

Denton; thank you so much son for protecting myself and Caleb and for watching out for him but I think the two of you need to sit down and talk about a new development in his life. It does pertain to you Uncle Denton.

Richard shook his hand, are you my uncle too? Denton was a little shocked and bewildered at what was going on.
