Chapter 10: Everyday Life with Apex Predators

The following are a collection of various slice-of-life episodes around the Casey house.

Chapter 10; Episode 1; Help Wanted

After all of the crazy events that had taken place around here lately, it was a little suspicious to wake up in such a quiet house. I looked over at my nightstand, and noticed that it was 6:50 AM. Dammit, my alarm was going to go off in 10 minutes. Maybe if I close my eyes now, I can still get 10 more minutes of sleep.

…A few hours later….

*BANG BANG BANG*

"Turn off that goddamn alarm already!" an angry female voice was yelling from behind my bedroom door. I felt my eyes crack open and looked over at the alarm clock. 11:09 AM.

SHIT

I totally slept through all of my morning chores. Breakfast wasn't made. None of the cleaning was done, and there is less than an hour until lunch.

I shot out of bed and hurried towards the door. Priya was waiting for me on the other side.

"About time you woke up. I was getting worried." She glared at me from atop her cobra tail.

"Sorry about that. Guess I was just tired from all the drama lately about Ms. Smith and Sida. Give me a few minutes to shower and i'll get started on the chores."

She put her hand on my shoulder. "Please hurry. If we don't get food on the table, Liz is going to tear this house down."

She's right. I need to hurry. I ran into the bathroom and took the fastest shower I possibly could. Once I brushed my teeth and got dressed, I hurried into the kitchen. Sure enough, Liz was already sniffing the place out.

"Cole! Thank goodness. I'm so hungry, and there wasn't any breakfast this morning." She looked at me with her predator eyes. This is bad. I need to calm this giant grizzly bear down before she winds up eating ME.

Thinking quickly, I took some steaks out of the fridge and walked towards the back door. Liz, with her excellent nose, immediately smelled the raw meat and ran after me.

"Sorry Liz, but I need you out of the kitchen so I can get lunch ready. Here, go get it!" Just like a master and his dog, I threw the raw meat into the back yard. Just like a dog, Liz ran outside and started tearing into the cow flesh with her razor sharp teeth.

Whew, that was close. Hopefully it buys me enough time to cook lunch. I would guess about 15 minutes at best. Not enough time for anything complicated. Oh well, time for plan B.

Spaghetti.

Thinking quickly, I raised a pot of boiling water, grabbed some noodles from the pantry, and a few cans of tomato sauce. I set another pan to simmer the sauce while adding some spices like oregano, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and basil.

"Hey, aren't you supposed to break the noodles before putting them in the pot?" A voice asked from behind. I heard the squeaking of wheels and knew instantly who it was.

"No way Olga. To do something like that would be an insult to Italians everywhere."

Olga pouted at me as cute as she could. "Who cares about what Italians think?"

"Olga, if you're not going to help with the cooking, then go wait in the living room until lunch is ready."

"Okayyyy! Hopefully I can watch my favorite show before Ellie gets back." She wheeled herself out of the kitchen and into the living room. It sounded like I was finally able to get this spaghetti finished, when I heard some commotion coming from the living room.

"Cole said it's my turn on the TV!"

"Oi Peixes, come back later. dias de nossas vidas is on! I can't miss this episode!"

Looks like Sida is already awake. I see she wasted no time getting to the TV. I'm impressed, to be honest. Usually Priya is the one who watches TV all day, but Sida somehow beat her to it. But that just leaves one question. Where is Ellie?

I looked out the kitchen window and saw Liz running around the back yard. Looks like she is being attacked by something.

"Get off me fuckin' yard ya cunt! You're making a bloody mess all over!" Speak of the devil. Looks like Ellie was out flying and saw Liz eating steaks in the yard. Now that I look at it, Liz was making a mess. Shit, we're probably going to have ants now. I just hope Ellie doesn't hurt someone.

"Hey you two, cut that out!" I ran outside to stop them from fighting.

"Oi G'day Cole! How ya goin?"

"Ellie stop attacking Liz!"

"But mate, she was making a mess all over the yard. Right after you just cut the grass yesterday too! The cunt needs to know this is not allowed."

"Yeah Ellie, stop picking on me!" Liz stuck her tongue out at the eagle harpy.

"Liz, you're not off the hook either. Quit making a mess in the yard."

Both of them were embarrassed that I was yelling at them, when I heard the water boil over the pot in the kitchen.

"Both of you inside now! Lunch is ready."

Thankfully, I was able to recover the pot so that it didn't start a fire. The noodles were done, and the sauce was ready. I gathered everyone in the dining room and served the spaghetti. It turned out much better than I thought. Although, that could also be because everyone was really hungry.

Alright, now that they're in a better mood, time to drop the hammer.

"Girls, i've got some bad news".

That got everyone's attention. Dramatic pause for effect.

"We're broke"

"WHAAAAT?!" They all screamed in unison.

"Yes, that's right. Ever since Ms. Smith left FIRE, they haven't deposited any money into my account. I don't know what the hell Ms. Jones is doing, but we only have enough money to last us through the end of the week. Unfortunately, that means I am going to have to get a job."

The girls were all so scared. "No Cole, you can't get a job! What about us?" Priya begged.

"Yea, who's gonna scrub the house, and wash me undies?" Ellie pouted.

"We can't trust Liz to be alone all day unsupervised". Olga made a good point. The poor grizzly bear shot her a look.

"I understand your concerns, but the only other option we have is for you all to get jobs. I can't ask that of you. Not when it's my job to be the provider for this family. "

The girls all looked at each other. One after another, silently nodding.

"I say we all go get jobs. 5 people can earn way more money than one. Ladies, what do you say?" Liz asked the group. They all nodded in agreement.

These girls. I was so touched that they would go out of their way to support each other. It felt like we were a real family.

A few days later

It sure is quiet around the house now that all the girls are out looking for a job. They should be back soon, as it's getting late.

Without any of them around to cause a ruckus, I was able to get the chores done very quickly. It's only 2:30 and I already finished the laundry, washed the dishes, cleaned the house, and dinner is in the oven.

Holy shit, I actually have some free time! What to do? I could go exercise. The weather was really nice today. I could stay in and watch some tv. There was that new series that I have been meaning to watch. I could also just go take a nap.

Yeah, I think i'll do that.

It only took a few seconds after my head hit the pillow before my body drifted off to sleep.

You know ever have those dreams where everything seems so real, that you don't even feel like you're dreaming?

That's what this one felt like.

I found myself in a place I had been before. It was an old Japanese shinto shrine in the woods outside of town. The same place I was after I had my car accident a while back. There was a familiar face who met me there too.

"Greetings Cole Casey. Thank you for joining me today. I hope you have been well."

"Tamamo? I wasn't expecting to see you again." The fox spirit smiled at me. "When dealing with foxes, always expect the unexpected".

She walked over to a small chair and sat down. "I called you here to give you some advice. This is in regards to your friends at FIRE".

With a wave of her hand, another chair appeared in front of her. I took a seat, and she used her magic to make some tea.

"Excellent work. You and your friends have discovered their evil plan. However, Ms. Smith is gone now, so she won't be able to save you anymore. This new woman, Ms. Jones, is not your ally. Be very careful of her."

I took a sip of the tea, and was surprised to see that it was cold. "Ice tea?"

"Well it is summertime after all. Nobody wants to drink hot tea this time of year".

"I assume that was not all you wanted to tell me?"

Tamamo took another sip of her tea. "Correct. Your old friend Lily is still out there. She will find her way back to you soon enough. However, don't be so quick to judge her. When you see her, listen to what she has to say. You may find that you two are not so different after all".

Something wasn't right. Why was she telling me all this?

"Lady Tamamo, why are you telling me all this? What do you stand to gain from helping me?"

She finished her tea. "FIRE must not be allowed to succeed with their plan. We rely on humanity more than you know. If they were to be completely replaced with monster girls, my kind would quickly perish. As the old saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend". She leaned in real close and kissed me on the lips. "Plus, you're a total hottie! Now then, I should get going. Your friends will be back from work any minute now. Good luck Cole Casey!"

In a flash I woke up to some soft feathers shaking me

"Wake up! Fuckin' hell, you're droolin' all over the cushions".

"Mmm huh what? Ellie? You're home early" I rubbed my eyes to get a better look at her. She was standing above me wearing her work uniform.

"Fuck you on about mate? I'm the last one to get home. The other girls are all having a bath. It's quite late ya know?"

I looked over at the clock on the wall. Yes it was certainly late indeed. Shit, I forgot to take dinner out of the oven. But wait, the house doesn't smell like it's on fire.

"My roast!" I shot up off the sofa, but Ellie pushed me back down. "No worries cobber. I already took the bugger out of the oven. She'll be right."

"Thanks Ellie. You really saved my ass." That cheeky eagle harpy gave me a sly smile as she turned around.

"Speaking of ass, how do you like my new uniform?" She got hired to work as a delivery girl for UPS, so she was required to wear the uniform. Standard brown shirt and brown shorts. Nothing too fancy, but on Ellie, she looked like a high class escort. They had to give her a sleeveless shirt since she can't put her wings through normal sleeves. They didn't have her size, so her boobs were bursting through the top buttons. But the real piece was her shorts. What Ellie lacked in boobs, she sure made up for in booty. My god, her ass looked amazing in those tight brown shorts. Imagine the sexiest instagram fitness influencer you can think of, and put eagle legs below her knees. That's Ellie right now. Now I know why kids call it "cake" because I want to get me a slice of that.

"Umm, y-you look nice".

"Thanks mate! With this, I'm ready to deliver packages all over. Speaking of, It looks like you got a package for me eh?" She lowered her eyelids to give me the bedroom eyes. I caught her looking down at my crotch, which was currently pitching a tent. I covered myself in embarrassment, and she laughed.

"Ellie! The bathroom's open!" I heard Priya call from upstairs. The cheeky harpy gave me a wink before walking upstairs. She made sure to sway her hips more than usual to catch me looking.

Later, we all sat at the dinner table to discuss the day's events. As I said before, Ellie got a job delivering packages for UPS. Liz got a job at the local elementary school as a crossing guard. I thought that job suited her well, considering how great she is with kids. It was summer break, so school was currently out, but they needed volunteers for summer school classes. Thank goodness the regular teachers didn't want to do it, because Liz was all too happy to sign up.

Olga took a job as a lifeguard at the community swimming pool. Since it was summer, they were hiring for lifeguards. Normally, they would always get some teenagers to do it, but each year, less and less kids would apply. If you ask the boss, he would give you some speech about how kids these days are lazy and don't want to work, but he won't mention how his company barely pays more than minimum wage for new lifeguards.

As the girls shared stories of their workday, I noticed Priya was very quiet all throughout dinner.

"What about you Priya. How was your day?" I asked her to try and include her in the conversation.

"Fine". She blew me off.

"Still haven't heard anything back huh?" Liz asked her. Priya didn't answer. "It's okay! You'll find something soon! Just keep trying!" Olga was doing her best to cheer her up.

"Easy for you to say! You all have niche jobs you can do easily with no training. Me? Who the hell wants to hire a big scary snake girl with fangs and venom? I'm never going to get a job!" Priya slithered away from the table and up to her room. I looked at the girls who all gave me a sad look.

"I'll go talk to her later." Liz reassured me.

"Hey, not to change the subject, but where is Sida? I haven't seen her around all day". Olga asked the group.

"I think she got some kind of night job. She didn't tell me exactly what it is, but she said she would be out late from now on".

The four of us quietly ate our dinner and washed up. Liz went to talk to Priya later like she said. Poor girl. This is exactly what I was trying to avoid. I don't want these girls to feel pressured to provide for me. I'm the one who should be providing for them. Oh well. They're all working so hard. The least I can do is be supportive.

The next day, the girls all went to work one after the other, except for Priya. She left the house to go job hunting. Poor girl had spent all week going around town interviewing for various companies hiring for part time work.

"No"

"Sorry, we just filled this position"

"We'll call you"

"No way"

One after another, they all rejected her. Seems nobody hiring demi-humans wants to hire a giant king cobra lamia girl.

Poor Priya, she was slithering all through town all by herself. Everyone was doing their best to avoid her, and for good reason. If you saw a giant king cobra lamia approaching you on the street, you would steer clear too.

Suddenly, she flicked her tongue a few times.

"Hang on, that smells like smoke".

She slithered around the corner and saw a tall apartment building down the street that was on fire!

Sirens were blaring all over the road as fire engines were racing to the scene. The building was engulfed in flames, and despite the firefighters best efforts to put out the blaze, it would not die.

Police also showed up to the scene to block off the roads. Priya approached the scene to ask them what was going on.

"Ma'am please stay back. This area is very dangerous". The firefighters seemed to be escorting someone out of the burning building.

"Please! My baby! My poor baby is still up there!" The woman begged the firefighters. "I'm sorry ma'am, it's too dangerous for us to go back in there. We have to wait for the ladder to get here. Until then, there is nothing we can do".

Priya, being a king cobra, was naturally gifted with infrared senses. She can detect prey in hiding based on their body temperatures. With this sense, she examined the building and found what looked like a small baby stuck inside of an 8th floor apartment.

"Officer, there is a baby still inside! It's on the 8th floor! Please you have to hurry!" Priya begged them. Right when she said that, the big fire engine with the ladder came to the scene. Once they deployed the ladder, there was a problem. The ladder was only tall enough to reach the 7th floor.

"Hey, stop! You can't go in there! Get back here!" The cops yelled at Priya. The giant king cobra paid them no mind. She slithered quickly to the burning building and made her ascent up the burning brick walls.

"What the hell? Who's that?"

"It looks like a giant snake"

"Thats no snake, its a lamia!"

King Cobra's are excellent climbers, so Priya was able to quickly make her way up the wall to the 8th floor. The room was engulfed in flames, but with her apex predator senses, she was still able to find the baby.

Thinking quickly, she grabbed the infant and climbed out the windows back down to the ground. The whole ordeal took about 30 seconds.

"Excuse me ma'am, does this belong to you?" Priya went over to the woman with the baby in her arms. The poor woman was crying as she was handed the child.

"Oh thank you snake girl! Thank you so much for saving my daughter's life!" Priya was so happy with herself. At least until the firefighters came over to her.

"Young lady, what you just did was reckless, irresponsible, and very dangerous. How would you like to join us?"

Priya couldn't believe it. "Y-you want me to join the fire department?"

"Of course! With your climbing skills, you could help a lot of people".

Priya smiled as she shook his hand. Before she could leave, she was quickly surrounded by news reporters and fans alike.

Later that night, the girls were all gathered around the dinner table telling stories of their workday.

"Hey, where's Priya? She's home kinda late tonight". Liz commented. In the other room, the TV was playing the local news.

Our top story tonight, an apartment building caught on fire this morning near the suburbs. Firefighters worked all through the day to put out the blaze, which they were able to extinguish after 6 hours. Thankfully no one was hurt, and that was all thanks to a king cobra lamia.

"Hold the fuck up, did she just say king cobra?!" Ellie left the table and flew into the living room. The others quickly followed her.

Priya Casey, a king cobra lamia, went viral on the internet today as video was taken of her climbing up a 15 story building to rescue a baby trapped inside a burning apartment on the 8th floor.

"We lamias are excellent climbers, and when I saw that the fire truck ladder couldn't reach that high, I knew I was the only one who could save that baby. So I just let my instincts take over and thankfully I made it in time." The king cobra woman told reporters on the news broadcast.

"No way, it's Priya! Look Look! Priya is on TV!" Olga was so excited to see her friend.

Off in the distance, they heard a fire truck siren. However, the siren was getting closer. Once it made classic fire engine horn noise, they looked towards the window and saw flashing lights. It was a huge red fire engine! Parked right outside of their house.

Cole and the girls ran outside and found several firefighters standing in the front yard. Liz was sniffing around, but could not smell smoke anywhere.

"What's going on? We didn't call 911".

Just then, a giant king cobra jumped out of the fire truck. She was dressed in full uniform, with the classic fireman hat on her head.

"PRIYA?!" Everyone shouted in disbelief.

"Hey guys! Check it out!" She proudly showed off her truck and uniform.

"Are you Cole Casey?" One of the firefighters asked the owner of the house. He nodded. "This young lady is truly amazing. Starting today, we would like her to come work for us. If that's alright with you as her host family."

He gave a happy sigh. "As long as you're home by dinner".

Everyone cheered. Priya honked the fire engine horn as all of the other girls congratulated her.

Chapter 10; Episode 2; The Beautiful Game

Sunday afternoon. Today, none of the girls had to go to work, so for the first time in a week, everyone was home together. Cole was cutting the grass in the backyard. Olga was in her room swimming in her pool and Liz was taking a nap. Priya came downstairs to find Ellie sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Come on you fucking cunts! Run the fucking ball!" Ellie was yelling at the TV. She was currently watching an NFL game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Minnesota Vikings.

"Geez Ellie, you don't have to shout".

"Oh G'day Priya. Wanna watch some football on the telly?"

"No thanks, I was just on my way to the kitchen to get something to drink". Right after Priya finished that sentence, a giant Arachne came barging into the living room.

"Hey mude de canal agora mesmo! Brazil is playing right now" Sida ripped the remote out of Ellie's wing hand and changed the TV to the Brazilian channel: TV Globo

"Oi What the fuck, Sida? I was right in the middle of watching football".

"Cala a boca, Galinha! That's not football. That's American hand egg". The TV was now showing an international soccer match between the Brazilian national team and the Colombian national team.

"THIS is football". Sida was very excited to be watching the game. She even wore her yellow jersey from the Brazilian national team.

"What the fuck is this bullshit? You cut my football game to watch some fucking soccer?" Ellie was not happy.

"It's not soccer, Galinha, it's football".

"Yeah nah mate, this ain't football. Just a bunch of poofters kicking a ball around".

"Exatamente! You use a foot to kick a ball. Foot. Ball. Bom trabalho gênio".

The two of them sat on the couch together and watched the soccer match on TV for a little~

OI CARALHO IT"S FOOTBALL!

Ahem, sorry, the two of them sat on the couch together and watched the Football match on TV for a little while.

Obrigado escritor

"Sida, who the fuck are ya talkin' to?" Ellie asked.

"Nobody Galinha. Where is Vida? I could go for a snack right now." Sida looked around the room to see if she could find Cole anywhere, but once her back was turned, Ellie grabbed the remote and changed the channel back to the Eagles game.

"Haha! Get fucked ya fuckin' spoidah" The two of them started fighting when Cole walked in the room.

"Vidaaaaa this filho de puta won't let me watch TV. Tell her to change the channel right now!" Sida was giving Cole the puppy dog eyes, which was ironic, considering she was the most venomous arachne in the world.

Cole rolled his eyes. "Ellie, let Sida watch her game".

""What?! But mate…"

"No buts! Besides, this is a rerun. The Eagles win this game 24-7."

Ellie's face was frozen in shock. She couldn't believe what Cole had just told her.

"Are you fuckin' wit me? You're saying all these games I've been watching were all reruns?! None of this is live?"

"Yeah. It's summertime. The NFL regular season doesn't start until September."

While Ellie was having an existential crisis, Sida snatched the remote from her hands and changed the channel back to the Brazilian football match.

"Hey Sida, that's a really nice jersey". Cole complimented her. Sida smiled "Awww muito obrigado Vida" She wrapped her spider legs and pedipalps around Cole in a warm embrace.

"I never knew Christiano Ronaldo played for Brazil".

Sida's eyes grew wide in anger. "O que você acabou de dizer?"

"Yeah, you're jersey. It says Ronaldo on the back. I never knew that~AAAGGHHHH" Sida threw him across the room into the wall.

"RECEBA CARALHO! Ronaldo Nazário is a national hero! Nunca mais desrespeite o Ronaldo com essa bicha portuguesa!"

In her anger, Sida turned the TV off and started walking towards the door. Liz came up from the basement. "Hey what's going on up here? Cole, why are you in the wall?"

Cole peeled himself out of the wall. "Ughh… I hate soccer".

"IT"S FOOTBALL!" Sida screamed right before she slammed the front door and left the house.

Chapter 10: Episode 3 - Magic Number 9

Cicadas were signing their summertime song as loud as they could in this heat. All of the other girls were off at work, except for one.

Soft sloshing sounds could be heard from the first floor bedroom across the hall from Cole. Olga was swimming around in her pool, browsing the internet on her computer, enjoying the peace and quiet.

"Ahhh the pool's closed today, and I finally got my first paycheck. That job barely pays any money anyway. No, the real money is right here".

Olga logged into her crypto account and saw her balance.

"Hehehe, stupid government issue currency. Time to turn you into REAL money". She took her total paycheck, loaded it into her account, and used it to buy a cryptocurrency called Buttcoin.

"Aaaand it's done. Now, I just sit back, and wait for these bags to pump pump pump!"

Olga was feeling really proud of herself. With the others still at work, she had the whole house to herself. That means, she had the living room all to herself. Olga jumped out of the pool, threw on a denim skirt, a yellow top, and went to the living room in her wheelchair.

With the rest of the house gone, she booted up the nintendo and started playing some video games.

A Few Hours Later

Cole came home from the grocery store and found Olga sitting on the couch playing video games.

"Olga, what are you doing? Shouldn't you be at work?"

"Heyyyyy Coley Woley! Work? No no no pool is closed today. Today I play games and relax!" She responded to him in the cute way she always talks to him.

"Oh, sorry I didn't know you were off today. Well in any case, have you been paid yet? Price of food is going up, so any money you can spare is much appreciated".

Olga smiled back "Yes I got paid yesterday!"

"Excellent! Can I have some money? I had to go to the store today since Liz ate what little food we had last night."

"Sorry Coley Woley, but I already spent my paycheck".

Cole had finished putting the groceries away when he heard that. "What?! What do you mean you already spent it?"

Olga grinned very wide. "I took my lifeguard money and bought Buttcoin!"

Cole looked like he was about to pop a blood vessel. "YOU WHAT?!"

"Yeah! Buttcoin is a cryptocurrency that's super cheap right now. It has a very strong use case, and~"

"Olga, let me get this straight, you spent actual US dollars, that you worked for, on a digital currency called Butt Coin?"

"Mmhmm! Once it moons, we'll be rich! You'll see!" Poor Olga looked so sweet and innocent. Cole was not happy at all.

"Listen, we're broke right now! We need real money, not some stupid imaginary internet tokens".

"Ha! And you think that toilet paper you call a Federal Reserve Note is real money? You poor shortsighted fool. If only you knew how the banking system in this country really works"

"Dammit Olga, I'm not arguing this with you right now. I am very upset with you! If you don't bring some real US dollars into this house to help pay bills, then you're not getting any dinner."

Olga looked like she was about to cry.

"O-okay fine. I'll go get some money".

Shortly after, all of the girls came home from work one by one. Each of them were telling stories of their various workdays, except Sida. She just sat there quietly and kept eating her food.

"Oi Cole, here's the week's pay". Ellie handed him a few hundred dollar bills.

"Yeah, here you go. This is all I got from the elementary school". Liz handed him another couple hundred dollars.

"This is all of the money I made at the fire department. Thanks for buying the groceries, and everything you do for us around the house". Priya gave Cole all of the money that she made that week, and also gave him a small kiss on the cheek.

The rest of the girls gasped in shock. They all started pushing and shoving each other as the attempted to get to the other side of the dinner table to give Cole a kiss. They were all interrupted by the sound of Sida slamming the back door open.

"Boa Noite, Vida. Here, buy yourself something nice". The deadly arachne threw a huge wad of cash on the dinner table. Cole picked it up and started counting all the bills.

"Oh my goddess. This is….. 10,000 dollars! Sida, where did you get this kind of money?!"

"Don't worry about it, Vida. I'd do anything for you." She crawled over to Cole and gave him a big wet sloppy kiss on the mouth, with plenty of tongue.

"I'm going out. Don't wait up". Sida started walking back out the back door when Priya yelled at her. "Hey! What gives? You just show up with a wad of cash, and shove your tongue in my man like it's no big deal?! Explain yourself!" She stood up on her cobra tail. Sida brushed her off.

"I don't have to explain myself to a bunch of broke ass bitches like you. Agora cale a boca, sua vadia falida" And with the slam of the back door, the girls' suspicion of their new housemate grew. Cole wasn't sure where she got all this money, but he wasn't going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

The next day

Olga got a ride into town from Cole while he went out shopping with his new money. She had promised him that she would spend the day looking for another job, since her job as a lifeguard paid the least of everyone.

Unfortunately for her, nobody was hiring for part time work at the moment.

Feeling discouraged, she wheeled around the mall for a while, sipping on a smoothie she bought from a vendor. While she was looking around at the crowds, she noticed a large group of teenage boys were walking by. One of them spotted her and came over.

"Woah, check it out guys, it's a real mermaid!" The young boy said to his friends. They all looked between 12-15 years old. Olga needed money, so she thought she would act nice to these boys and see if she could convince them to give her some cash.

"Hahaha yes sir indeed i am! My name is Olga! It's nice to meet you boys!" She gave them a wink while sticking her chest out. Olga was wearing a simple pink top with a light blue skirt. She was very clever girl, and knew that boys that age only had one thing on their minds.

"Um~h~h~hi there. A~a~are you here al~alone?" One of the boys stuttered.

"Yes, and i've been feeling really lonely. Could I hang out with you?"

All of the boys started blushing. "Yeah of course! We're on our way to the super smash brothers tournament. Why don't you come along?"

A lightbulb went off in Olga's mind. Super Smash Brothers was a game she always played on her Nintendo Switch at home. She never knew people played each other in competitions.

"Yeah! Let's go!"

X

The boys pushed Olga's wheelchair to one of the video game stores in the mall. It was full of people, because in the back, they were having a big contest for Super Smash Brothers.

"Step right up folks! Come and play in the Super Smash Bros tournament. First place gets 10,000 and a spot in the national tournament!" One of the store employees announced to the boys.

Olga rubbed her chin and hatched a plan. She looked around at all of these guys. They were good, but none of them were better than her. If she entered the tournament, she would win no problem.

"Sir, I would like to enter pleaseeee!" Olga yelled at the employee as cute as she could.

"Yeah u~um sure. Here is the entry form. Just fill this out and we'll get you in the next game". He was blushing while handing her the form.

Olga looked around and quickly noticed that she was the only girl in the room. Not only that, but all of these guys looked like total virgins. All she had to do was flirt a little, and she wouldn't even have to try.

This was too easy.

"Round 1. Olga Casey vs [Redacted]. This tournament is single elimination. Each player gets 4 stocks. All characters are allowed. No items. Final Destination only. Any questions? BEGIN"

Olga was doing pretty well, however, she noticed that the guy kept looking at her boobs. At one point, she was up 2 stocks to 1, and looked over at the guy.

"Hey, what does this button do?"

"Oh, that's your…umm…. Uhh" He couldn't finish his sentence. Olga was leaning down, so her boobs were peeking through her shirt. Without looking, she used her down B to finish his character.

"Yayyy I won!" Olga cheered, along with the group of boys who came in with her. They were personal cheer section.

The sexy Orca mermaid girl easily breezed through the next two rounds. This tactic that she used against the boys she played against worked like a charm. One by one, they all fell victim to her sex appeal.

That 10,000 was as good as hers.

"Alright everyone, we have reached the championship match! Our two finalists are Olga Casey, and our defending champion, Steve Bartman!" The employee announced. One of the boys wheeled her in front of the tv screen. She then saw her opponent. He was short, fat, covered in acne, and had long greasy hair underneath his fedora. His body was covered in a Naruto shirt and cargo shorts. He smelled like BO and Axe body spray.

"Wow, if I knew my opponent was this handsome, I would have dressed up a little more". Olga brushed her hair back a little bit. Much to her surprise, this guy was not phased at all.

"Ha! Stupid Roastie. Your gamer girl tricks won't work on me."

Olga gave him the stink eye. "What did you just call me?" Her tone and demeanor changed instantly.

"Oh yes, I know you're type. You think just by wearing a low cut shirt and giving the puppy dog eyes, you can come in here and call yourself a gamer? That's not how this works, lady. You see, unlike these virgin losers here, I have A GIRLFRIEND"

Everyone gasped, even the employees.

"A true gamer is one who has mastered the art of his craft, with over 1000 hours played. He cannot be swayed by lustful temptation, and his resolve can defeat even the toughest of foes. You gamer girls are all the same. You think you're good at the game because you have an army of simps giving you IGC and telling you how to beat every boss. Meanwhile, us true gamers look down on your kind. We see you as the whores and con artists you really are".

Olga was furious. "Alright you fucking incel. You wanna talk shit? I'm going to kick your ass so fucking hard that you're girlfriend will become my lesbian sex slave."

One of the boys whispered in Olga's ear. "Hey calm down. That's Steve Bartman. He's played in the national Smash Bros tournament. He's really really good. I'm not sure you can beat him".

Olga turned and gave him the eyes of a true apex predator.

"He called me a Roastie. His ass is going down". She turned back to the screen and picked Mr. Game and Watch.

"Now pick your fucking character already so I cna emberrass you in front of these people".

Steve smirked. "Mr. Game and Watch? Ha, an inferior character for an inferior opponent. How fitting." He picked Ness. "Of course the man-child would pick a little boy to play as". Olga glared at him.

3.2. !

The game started off very tense. Both players were highly engaged in the battle. However, it was Steve who took first blood. Olga lost her first stock. Steve was up 4-3. Olga did her best to battle back, and then finally took a stock from Steve. Ness was knocked off the map, and then once he got back, Mr. Game and Watch was knocked off the map a few seconds later with an upsmash.

Olga did her best to battle back, but Steve kept spamming up B and soon knocked Olga off again. He was up 3-1. Olga was down to her last stock.

"Hahaha! You're down to your last stock. I knew you were actually trash at this game. Now, it's time to end this."

Right when Steve said that, Olga used the side B, and rolled a 9.

Instant death. Steve was now leading 2-1.

"W-what was that?! How? I was only at 30 percent?!"

Olga smirked. "You said Mr. Game and Watch was an inferior character? Shows how little you know about the game. You see, Mr. Game and Watch has the most powerful move in the entire game. The side B. When he does this, a number appears, and if that number is a 9, it's an instant kill".

Steve started sweating. Olga used the side B and rolled a 7. Several apples appeared. She was able to heal herself quickly.

"You like apples?" She used side B again, and rolled a 9. Instant death. "HOW BOUT THEM APPLES?!"

The game was tied 1-1. The boys behind Olga were going nuts. Olga lowered her eyes in anger.

"I don't know how in the world you managed to get a girlfriend, but calling a girl you just met a Roastie, is unforgivable!"

Steve was spamming PK fire, but Olga was able to use Mr. Game and Watch's bucket to collect the fire blasts and power up her special attack.

"No! My PK fire, it's not working!"

Mr. Game and Watch grabbed Ness and Olga started spamming the jab as fast as she could.

"MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA"

Once Ness was at 100 percent, Mr. Game and Watch emptied his bucket, and Ness went flying off the screen.

Game. Winner: Mr. Game and Watch.

All of the boys around Olga lost their minds. Everyone in the store was cheering. Olga threw her controller on the floor and pointed at Steve. "Get fucked loser! Don't ever talk that kind of shit to me ever again!"

Steve ran out of the store, and the employees presented Olga with a giant cardboard check for 10,000 dollars. Needless to say, Olga was pretty pleased with herself.

Back at the Casey house, everyone was sitting down for dinner, when they all noticed Olga was not there.

**ding dong**

"I'll get it". Liz stood up and answered the door. It was Olga. She was sitting in her wheelchair, and a minivan was driving away down the street.

"Olga, what are you doing here? And what's that big thing you're carrying?"

"Out of my way you giant furball". Olga wheeled herself past Liz and went to the kitchen.

"COOOOLE! Look look look! Olga brought home big money for her big honey!" She threw the giant cardboard check on the table. Everyone was blown away at the amount. Olga jumped from her wheelchair and gave Cole a big hug.

That night, she received an extra helping of dinner.

Chapter 10: Episode 4 - The Secret Ingredient

Another comfy evening at the Casey house. All of the girls were doing various things to unwind after the workday. Ellie and Sida were watching TV. Priya was in her room listening to some music. Liz was taking a bath, and Olga was swimming in her pool in her room. She had managed to get some games on her PC, and was currently playing Call of Duty online when she heard Cole walking to his room.

"COOOOOOOLE! Can you come here for a minute?" She yelled from across the hall. Cole walked into her room and checked on her.

"What is it Olga?"

"I saw you looking really sad today. Tell Olga what's wrong pleaseeee".

Cole laughed a little bit at her attitude. This big Orca mermaid was such a little ball of joy.

"Can you keep a secret?" Olga nodded her head. "Tomorrow is my birthday, and I guess i've just been thinking about my life".

Olga gasped and put her hands to her mouth. "It's your birthday?!" Cole nodded. "But Cooooole, birthdays are happy! Why does it make you sad?"

Cole took in a big breath. "I haven't had a happy birthday in a very long time, Olga. Now, it's late, and I'm going to bed. Please don't tell the others. I just want tomorrow to be an ordinary day."

He gave Olga a hug goodnight, then went to his own room to go to sleep. Once the coast was clear, Olga got in her wheelchair and hurried all over the house.

"EVERYONE! Emergency house meeting right now!" She screamed out to the girls. They quickly gathered in the living room to see what was going on.

"Ladies, it has been brought to my attention that tomorrow is Cole's birthday!"

Everyone gasped.

"You fuckin' serious mate? Bloody hell, why didn't he say anything?" Ellie complained.

"He said he hasn't had a happy birthday in forever, and just wants to have a normal day tomorrow. Obviously we can't do that." Olga addressed the group.

Priya puffed out her chest. "Well, i'm going to make him the biggest, most delicious birthday cake ever! He will love it so much that he will have no choice but to ask me to marry him! Muhahaha!"

All of the other girls gave her the stink eye. "Oh yeah? Well I'm going to make him a cake so amazing that it will make yours look like a little biscuit!" Liz growled at her.

"You cunts are in over your heads! Once he sees my cake, it's fuckin' over."

"Meu bolo será o melhor. You ladies don't stand a chance."

Olga had to diffuse the situation before these apex predators started fighting. "Ladies, how about we settle this once and for all? Each of us will give him a cake, and whichever cake Cole thinks is the best, will be the official best girl. Deal?"

All of the girls nodded.

And so, the battle for best girl began.

The next day

Cole woke up and began his morning chores just like every other day. However, for some reason, all of the girls seemed to be on edge. At breakfast, they all seemed to be so tense.

"Hey Cole, the guys down at the fire station were going to throw a potluck lunch today. We're all supposed to bring something." Priya mentioned at the table.

"Oh yeah? That sounds like fun. What are you going to bring?"

"I was going to bring that ice cream with the miniature pies in it. Do we have any more in the freezer?"

"Hang on, let me check". Cole stood up and walked over to the freezer. Priya smirked to herself as she ate her breakfast.

"Shoot, looks like we're all out. I'll go run to the store and get some more. Girls, are you okay to clean up the table on your own?" They all nodded. "Okay, i'll be back later!" Cole grabbed his car keys and left the house.

Priya smirked to herself as the other girls looked at her confused. "Priya, what are you talking about? We never had ice cream with miniature pies inside?"

"Oh right, well none of you were around for that, but since I was here first, I happened to remember that we had that in the freezer when FIRE first put me here."

Priya started rummaging around in the cabinets and pulling out various baking ingredients.

"However, Cole has no idea that that flavor was discontinued months ago. He'll be gone all day, which gives me plenty of time to use the kitchen to make my cake!"

Liz growled at her. "You sneaky snake! Not if I make my cake first!" She started rummaging through the ingredients too. Both Priya and Liz were hard at work preparing to make a cake from scratch. Olga and Sida looked at them, then left the room.

"Oi, where are you girls off to? You're not gonna give it a go?" Ellie asked them.

"Sorry, but cooking is not something that sea creatures do. I'm going to go to that fancy bakery at the mall and buy the biggest bestest cake they have!" Olga wheeled herself out the door, where a minivan was waiting for her.

"What about you? Are you going to make a Brazilian cake?" Ellie asked the arachne.

"This contest is bullshit. Everyone knows i'm best girl. I don't need some stupid cake to prove that." Sida left the house after saying that.

Now it was just Ellie alone in the living room. Priya and Liz were making a huge mess in the kitchen, so rather than try to compete with them, she turned on the TV and started watching a cooking show on the food network. There was a woman who was alone in a studio kitchen, and she was giving the audience step by step lessons on how to make a cake from scratch.

Ellie was following along as best as she could. Once the show was over, she found Cole's tablet and did an internet search for cake recipes. As she was reading the recipes, the news came on.

Welcome to channel 7 news at noon. Our top story, muggings on the rise. Police are reporting a huge rise in muggings lately, along with petty theft, and they are asking citizens to be alert.

"It's done!" Ellie heard a voice shout from the kitchen. She ran over to see what the commotion was. Priya was standing near the counter, admiring the sloppiest looking cake you have ever seen.

"Oi Priya, what the fuck is that mate?"

"Behold, my dear Eleanor: This is the cake that will win my darling's heart!" Ellie looked at the cake in disgust. It was very well decorated, and looked really nice. How the hell was she going to compete against that?

"Oh yeah, well take a look at mine!" Liz showed off a cake that was twice the size of Priya's. It was so big, that she had run out of chocolate icing, and left the bottom portion of it bare.

"Wow girls… they sure look good…" She looked on at the two cakes on the counter. They were both very well made and looked like both girls had put in a lot of effort.

"What about you? Are you going to make a cake?" Liz asked.

"I don't think I can".

"Why not?" Priya asked her. Ellie started blushing, then spread her giant eagle wings. "Because I don't have any fuckin' hands!"

The two girls froze for a second, then started laughing. "Hahahaha oh yeah I totally forgot! Could you imagine if Ellie tried to make a cake? It would be such a disaster!" They both kept laughing as Ellie stood there blushing harder.

"Hey Ellie, why don't you ask Olga if she can buy another one from the store and put your name on it? Hahahaha" They started laughing harder.

"You know what, you both are some real fuckin' shit cunts! Just you wait, i'll make a cake, and it's going to be better than both of your shit heaps!"

Priya smirked. "Go ahead. The kitchen's all yours". The two of them put their cakes in the fridge, and left Ellie with the whole space all to herself.

The Australian Wedge Tail Eagle harpy went to work. First, she grabbed her tablet with the recipe on it. Next, she loaded a video of a woman giving a lesson on how to bake a cake.

It was hard at first. Ellie needed to get a mixing bowl and pour in flour, milk, sugar, salt, and egg whites. Not having any hands would make this difficult, and she would spill several times. However, her resolve was firm. She was doing this for Cole! She had to prove to all the other girls that she was the best.

"Wait a sec, what if…" Ellie noticed that after she spilled the milk for the fourth time, that there was a viral video of a girl with no arms, who was cooking with her feet. The girl was able to make a ham and cheese omelet using only her feet.

'That's it!" She put the mixing bowl on the floor, and using her talons, expertly cracked the eggs to get only the egg whites! Using her superior eagle vision, she was able to read the recipe while the table was on the floor. Soon she poured in the milk, sugar, salt, and stirred all using her feet.

Once the batter was ready, Ellie grabbed two baking pans, and used her foot to rub crisco inside of them. Then she used her other foot to pour in the mix, and put the pan in the oven. Ellie was feeling confident as she watched the cake baking in the oven.

The timer went off, and Ellie gripped a hot pad with her foot, and pulled the cake out of the oven to cool.

Once the cake was cool, she took it out of the pan, placed it on a plate, and found a new problem.

"Bloody hell, those cunts used all the chocolate icing. Shit, what should I do?" Ellie asked the internet, and found a recipe for whipped cream online. It was a simple recipe. Milk, sugar, and whisk until it turns into cream.

She grabbed a second bowl, added the ingredients, and whisked hard. Soon, she had plenty of whipped cream.

Ellie grabbed a small spatula and used her feet to put the icing on the cake (no pun intended). Once the whole thing was done, she stood back and admired her hard work.

The cake was not symmetrical, and the icing was uneven, but she worked very hard on it. Her cake did not look as good as the other two, but she was proud of it nonetheless. Now all she had to do was wait for Cole to get home and be the judge.

Meanwhile

Cole had been all over town to every grocery store he knew, and could not for the life of him find that damn ice cream.

At the store he was currently at, he asked the manager if they had the ice cream with miniature pies in them.

"What? No way dude. Didn't you hear? The company stopped making that flavor months ago. We haven't had it on the shelves here in a long time! Shame though, that stuff was delicious."

Cole couldn't believe it! Now he was going to have to return home empty handed. He felt really bad about the whole ordeal, especially since he had spent over 6 hours driving around town looking for the damn thing, only to find out at the end that they didn't even make it anymore.

Priya is going to be so disappointed.

As he was leaving the store, he noticed it was getting dark. This was not a very good neighborhood he was in, so he wanted to get back to his car quickly.

He walked outside and saw he was all alone out here. This was really hairs on the back of his neck were standing up. His gut instinct was screaming at him that danger was nearby.

"Oi Gringo, me dê seu dinheiro agora mesmo"

Cole felt something poke into his back. He turned around and saw the last person he expected to see.

"SIDA?!"

"VIDA?! What are you doing all the way out here?"

"Is that a gun?!"

"Ummm…. well…You should go home! This is a really bad neighborhood. You could get hurt" Sida was pushing Cole towards his car. He still had so many questions.

"What's going on? Were you trying to rob me just now?"

"Who, me? Nooooo I would never! Why don't you run along and forget what you saw here".

Sida was trying her hardest to smile and play it cool. Cole turned on the car and drove home, but the whole situation made him very uneasy. He was going to have a talk with Sida later.

X

Once Cole got back home, he opened the front door with a sigh. All of the lights were off. "Guess all of the girls went to bed. Damn, I don't know if I can face Priya".

"SURPRISE!"

The lights all came on and all of the girls were waiting for him in the living room. They all jumped out and started singing him happy birthday.

"What the~Olga, did you tell everyone?" The Orca mermaid stuck her tongue out at him.

"Look Cole, I baked you a cake! Come and try a piece" Priya ushered him into the kitchen. There was a beautiful cake on the table. It was covered in chocolate icing, and had "Darling" written in white icing, outlined by a heart written in red icing. It also had small golden stars drawn around it in yellow icing.

"Wow, Priya, you made this? All by yourself?" Priya nodded. She was beaming with pride as she cut a piece. She handed Cole a fork and he took a bite.

"OH MY GOD (cough cough cough) THIS IS DISGUSTING".

Priya's face collapsed like the soviet union.

"What the fuck is this? It's so salty! Did you forget to put sugar in here? Oh my god, you used barbecue sauce for the icing? Oh no, don't tell me, the letters are written in ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise?! Priya, did you even use a recipe?"

The poor girl sank like the titan submersible.

"Don't eat the stinky snake cake! Eat my cake! Look how pretty it is!" Olga pulled a box out from the fridge that was from an expensive bakery in town. Cole opened the box and gave her the stink eye.

"Umm… Olga… my name is spelled wrong".

Olga looked inside and cursed herself. The cake read Happy Birthday Coal.

"Those bastards! I told them to write happy birthday COLE. That's the last time I ever buy anything from them." Olga was cursing like a sailor when Sida walked in. She had a box from the exact same bakery that Olga went to.

"Feliz Aniversario Vidaaaa! Here, this is for you!"

Cole and Olga both looked at the cake Sida brought and were not impressed. "Hey, thats the exact same cake I bought!" Olga pointed at her.

"Sida, did you steal this?" Cole raised an eyebrow. Sida tried to play it cool. "What? Noooo I bought the best one they had, just for you!"

Olga grabbed the box "Liar! You stole this! Look, it still has the price tag on it!"

"Yeah, and what if I did? You said it yourself a padaria é uma merda. They couldn't even spell his name right. You think I would give them my money?"

While Olga and Sida were fighting, Priya noticed something. "Hey Liz, where is your cake?" The giant grizzly bear started blushing. "Oh… well…. You see… Cole came home late… and I was hungry… so I ate it… Sorry Cole".

Cole stood up and yelled at all the girls. "Enough! This is exactly why I didn't tell anyone that today was my birthday. Every year it always sucks, and I knew if I told you that you would all do something crazy like this. All I wanted to do was just have a normal day, but instead, I spent the whole day driving around town looking for ice cream that doesn't exist, then I get bombarded with all of these stupid cakes! I've had enough. I'm going to bed."

All of the girls looked very defeated as Cole marched out of the kitchen and down the hall towards his room. He took a nice hot shower which helped him calm down from the stress of the day.

Once he was in his pajamas, he was getting ready for bed, when he heard a knock at his door.

"It's open". The door opened to reveal Ellie in her pajamas. She was wearing black panties and a loose white top with no bra.

"Cole, you got a minute mate?"

"Sure, what is it Ellie?"

"Well, I wanted to apologize on behalf of all of us. We all just wanted to do something nice for you, but we took it too far and got way too competitive and ended up making it about ourselves. I'm sorry you had such a bad birthday". The eagle harpy looked so sad. It broke Cole's heart.

"Aww Ellie it's okay. I know you meant well. My birthday sucks every year, so don't feel bad. Although, I noticed you were the only one who didn't try to shove cake down my throat".

Ellie started blushing. "Yeah umm about that. You see, I actually did make you a cake, but I don't have any hands, so I didn't think it was any good. After watching you roast all the other girls shitty cakes, I don't think my heart could handle hearing you talk about mine".

Now Cole was starting to feel really bad. The poor girl had made a cake, all by herself, with no hands. Even if it sucked, he still wanted to see it, mostly out of curiosity.

"Thats so sweet of you! Tell you what, i'm still pretty hungry. Why don't we go to the kitchen and try a piece?"

The eagle harpy jumped hen he said that. She wrapped him in her wings and flew down the hall to the kitchen. It was late, so the other girls went to bed. Ellie and Cole were alone. She pulled out the cake from the fridge. Cole looked at it and was actually quite impressed with it. The cake was ugly, sure, but the fact that it was made by someone with no hands was impressive on it's own.

"Wow Ellie, I can't believe you made this all by yourself! Here i'll get some plates. Let's try it." Cole cut a piece and served her, then cut another and served himself. He scooped up some on his fork and took a bite.

"OH MY GOD…(Ellie looked like she was about to cry).. THIS IS DELICIOUS!"

Her face did a complete 180 upon receiving the news.

"It's so sweet, and rich. The cake is moist and fluffy and… is this whipped cream?! I never had whipped cream came before. Wow, this is so amazing. I want another piece".

Ellie couldn't believe what she was hearing. The ugly white cake she made with her feet was the most delicious cake of them all. It was like a dream come true.

"D-do you like it?"

"Ellie, I love it! This is the best cake I have ever had in my entire life".

The eagle harpy was so ecstatic. She didn't know what to do with herself. With all the other girls asleep, now was her chance.

"Mate, you got some cream on your face". Cole touched his cheek. "Where?"

"Right here" Ellie leaned in and gave him a soft, gentle, loving kiss.

"Happy Birthday Mate".

The two of them kissed again, and held it for a little longer this time. When they pulled away, they were both blushing furiously. Cole looked at her chest and started stuttering.

"Umm Ellie your~umm~chest has some cream on it".

She looked down and noticed that there was indeed cream on her shirt. It must have rubbed off the piece of cake on his plate that he was holding.

"Fuckin' hell mate, my shirts buggered. Can't go to sleep lookin' like this". After she said that, Ellie slowly and seductively took her shirt off. Revealing her bare breasts to Cole's eyes. They were B cups, which were the smallest of the girls, but her toned athletic body made them very perky. Flying 1000 meters in the air all day burns a lot of calories. She didn't have a six pack, but it was about as close as you could get for a woman. Cole couldn't believe what he was seeing. Ellie used her wing to scrape some icing off the cake, and rub it on her nipples.

"Ah fuck mate, looks like theres some on my chest. Think you could help clean it up?" Ellie was blushing hard, but Cole was blushing harder. He swallowed his pride, and licked the left nipple clean. Ellie squealed, then he licked the right nipple clean.

She was getting real hot and bothered, and if she squealed any louder, she might wake up Olga, who was just down the hall.

They started kissing again, this time with tongue, but were sadly cut short by the sound of someone climbing up the basement stairs.

"Shit, we woke up Liz". Ellie cursed. "No, not us, it's the cake. She probably smelled it and got hungry". Cole grabbed Ellie's shirt off the floor. "Quick, get back to your room. I'll wash this in the morning."

"But what about my cake?"

"Leave it. There's no time!"

Cole started running back to his room, and Ellie flew up stairs to her room in the attic. Thankfully, they both made it in time before Liz got to the kitchen. She ate the whole thing, and even licked the plate clean.

Ellie was in her room, tucking herself in. She thought about the cake, and how happy Cole was when he ate it. It sucked that Liz ended up eating most of it, but Ellie didn't feel too bad.

"I'll make you an even better cake next year". She whispered to herself as she drifted off to sleep.

TO BE CONTINUED...
Bonjour dear readers! Thank you for reading my story. I hope you all have been well. This chapter was all filler, but I wanted to just write something to get back into writing again. If you're wondering where I have been, well, lets just say things have not been going well. My girlfriend dumped me back in May, and I was in a really bad place for a while. Enough time has passed that i'm feeling better now, and back to writing. In fact, one of the things that helped me get over her was reading my own story! All of the girls in this story touch my heart in their own way, and I hope they have touched yours too. Who is your favorite? If it's Ellie, then you're in luck. I have commissioned another art work from my favorite artist, Otavio Luiz da Silva. He is a fantastic guy, and I love working with him. He will be making more commissions of your favorite apex predator waifus, and they will be posted in due time. Also, I wanted to announce that the next chapter will not be released for a while. I am currently finishing up writing my next novel. It's the sequel to my first novel, and it's my most ambitious project yet. My plan is to have it finished by the end of the summer. Once it's done, i'll get back to writing this story. Until then, I wish you all a wonderful summer. You are all very dear to me, and I love each and every one of you. Thank you for reading and GO BE ALIVE!
