Damon took his pack into the Irish castle. He was happy to see the females pregnant, ready to bear his offspring. He was stronger than them and it felt right. Yet he knew he had not handled the situation with Mimi very well, but the time would come for it. First, it would be a rough time for Mimi because he would have power over her if needed. He would do little medical procedure to Mariella as well, so her manipulation would be easily curbed as well. It would be time for this pack to learn from the past and one big thing that was in Damon's mind was to teach Mimi to share. Tell her stories and not necessarily bad ones, but everyday things, like the story of how she and Jake ended up in bed, how they met.
One thing it would be getting Mimi to trust him for sure too. He needed to be ultimate safety to her, to give her the feeling that no one else could and it would be simply. Now, Mimi would become addicted to Damon's pheromones and in a big way.
Damon looked at Mariella, who was not feeling too maternal, but this was all part of his plan. He wanted Mimi to have some time for herself and to pull herself together before it would be time to learn and learn well. Now he finally had the method of controlling her rage in a way that no one could abuse, but he would have full control over it, leaving Mimi with nothing to do.
Damon, being a genius, had worked with Charles and obtained a similar control device for Mariella as well. Mariella had not really known that she was the biological half of Charles. It was just a protector-protégé relationship, and Mariella, being a savior, could give her tissues to every other Salvatore. However, as she was meant to be Charles's protector, they were a biological match, so this was done using tissues from Charles.
It had been Mimi's purpose to be the protector of all the salvatores, but she had refused, and one day Damon swore she would be his protector, and she would have no choice. He knew just how good and right it felt to let that instinct to be protector take over and do as it demanded, Mimi would learn in her time and Damon had slowly started to learn that time was something that they all had and it was sometimes good to take things little slower. He was getting to learn not to be too impatient.
He was thinking ahead to times when the pack would have story nights, where they would all gather, including the younger members, to tell stories, have fun, and discuss them. He was prepared to share his own stories and was also eager to learn more about Adam's life. Mimi had mentioned how Adam had become a wolf, but he was curious to know what came next, and what motivated him to save every woman - was it just because of one person, or was there someone else?
He also wanted to hear about Mimi's origins and her secrets directly from her. Of course, he planned to have some private time with Mimi to use his interrogation skills to uncover a few of her secrets, as she had many and had no qualms about keeping them.
He also wanted to focus on physical fitness, particularly managing rage. He intended to talk to Magnum about it, as Magnum had always been the one to help Mimi use and control her rage. He recalled the first time he hadn't taken Mimi's rage seriously and ended up getting hurt. Mimi had been knocked out for a few days to let her rage subside, and it appeared that Colin had still been using that method. He thought that managing Mimi's rage would also benefit her, and he was determined to help her unload and harness that rage, as well as her pathos.
Her addiction to his pheromones would be crucial when he was going to ask about those secrets. He could and would control her with them. And then if there was some big secret that might put her in danger, well, he had quite a network and he was more than willing to show just how much he was defending her. He walked down the corridor, seeing Mariella in the kitchen upstairs.
Number two was giving her something to eat, and she was less happy as she had cravings and they did not really listen to her what she wanted. She was not so eager anymore being pregnant and having litters of cubs, but she was powerless to do anything that having those damn cubs. Mimi would have the time of her life and she was the mere breeding machine. She saw Damon walking like a predator into the kitchen, watching her, and she suppressed her excellent sentences when she did not want him to teach her a lesson.
She ate her meal like a good girl. Damon came next to her, touching her neck with his fingers and long vampire nails, causing her to restrain a shiver. Damon chuckled darkly, clearly waiting for her to finish eating so he could share his thoughts with her.
"Do you know, my wife, that it is time for Mimi to be affected by my pheromones? I have a plan to help control her rage. She needs someone strong enough to guide her, and it will be me. I can and will take control over her, ensuring that she follows my instructions without fear of medical procedures. In addition, my pheromones can help her relax. This is not the time for her to take control; it's my turn," Damon said, emitting dominance in his dark voice, leaving Mariella feeling aroused.
Curious about how Damon planned to manage Mimi's rage, was it something to do with his telepathy or what?
Mariella asked, "Damon, how are you going to control Mimi's rage?"
Damon lazily looked at his wife and replied, "Come with me, and I'll show you."
Damon stood up and walked into the med bay. Mariella followed. She had eaten enough and her belly was full enough, but she knew that the cubs inside her would have most of it so she would have to eat and lot of it. She sat by one of the beds. their medbay in here Ireland was not linked, and it was not as fancy as normally. This was the place where she usually operated on their bowels after they had eaten rubbish and gotten themselves blocked.
Damon walked up to the cupboard, the fishing key from his pocket. It had been locked, so Mariella could not even open it. It was a special cupboard. Damon took some kind of collar from one cupboard. It was thin, had long spikes on the inside so it would take root in Mimi's tissues, and was biological, so Damon had made it from his own tissue. He turned around, and he had actually two of them. One of them was a little daintier and smaller, and Mariella could see that it was meant for Mimi.
Damon placed a little bigger collar on the small table next to him, keeping a daintier one in his hands. He took a few steps closer to Mariella so she could see.
Damon said, "This is the way. Look at this. This is biological, but Mimi will always feel this. Done with my collagen, enamel, and a few other tissues, spikes are from my bone. These two discs come on the pain chakra and the agony chakra. They have my magic in them and my energies. And this is the magical electric collar. So I can put a lot or a little bit of electricity here. It doesn't take much for Mimi not to get a hold of her rage. So think about it. Mimi could use a blood test, but she refuses. We'll give her some electricity and a couple of sedative shots from her sedative organ, and she'll be helpless. Then a little bit of my pheromones make her feel relaxed and soon her fear of medbay is history. This also enables me to stop her if she goes on a rampage or has too big a tantrum. This is done partially with my will and my magic, so no fear ever of anyone hacking this."
Mariela was wet. The thought of Damon having that kind of power over her made her wet.
Damon looked at his wife, taking now the other collar in his hands, and said, "Do you want to be in control too, completely at my mercy? You know, you are the biological half of Charles, so this is made of his tissues, fully matched to yours, so this will grow fast in your neck."
Mariella nodded. She was helpless to say no. Somehow this was so damn seductive, let him rule over her and she had no idea about what electric current would do to her, she was an energy creature so she might be able to yank it out and put it in her tanks if she would want. Something in Damon was so damn glorious. He had taken yet another leap, grown some more, and he was ready to be strong for Mimi.
Damon smiled cruelly and said, " Come on, then. Go sit over there."
Mariella sat down and felt Damon take the collar, press the prongs deep into her neck, and put the discs into her chakras, and she felt it grow into her tissues to attach. It made her feel special, but she had not seen danger at all and Damon had had his own plan. The collar was not the only thing that he had done to her, not at all. Then, an electric current hit her, and she couldn't move as Damon took hold of her.
Damon whispered, "Oh, please darlin', try to suck that current. I am not that easy. It has my will, my magic, and you are helpless before them. As you see, you are fully frozen, student, so it is time for your lesson."
Damon put her on the examination table on her stomach and tied her down, took her clothes off, putting a pillow under her chest so her spine was straight. Mariella saw Damon had a flank organ reserved for her, too. Sharp sting when Damon used cobalt, and cut her spine open, ground her vertebra, making that organ part of her spine. He was whispering to her just how strong a drug there was in this organ and she could never unload it. Again, he showed her side of himself that she would never believe that would do something like this to her but Mimi.
She was helpless and couldn't do anything as Damon mercilessly inserted the organ into her as well, growing it into her spine. She could feel the wires now attached to her lungs. She was not sure what to feel. At one point, this was seduction. She was wet but then again, now all it took was one press of the button and she would be helpless.
Damon pushed the button, and Mariella's head went cloudy.
Damon whispered, " Now, my love, you are completely under my control. Just as Mimi will be. Let's see if you think twice before starting to even think about manipulating me. I am more than willing to teach you, student."
Mariella was soaked, but she knew Mimi would fight back and that Damon would enjoy it and enjoy it hard, Mariella said as she came back to her senses." Oh, now I've got a flank too."
Damon gave Mariella a cruel look and said, "Control yourself, Mariella. You're going to learn what I can do. We have a date with my first wife coming up. This will take time. I will visit her nightly after putting a collar on her, so that addiction sets in deeply. Then, at some point, she will experience withdrawal, and it may trigger some unpleasant memories. I am also going to start teaching the whole pack to share, including Mimi. We will have story nights, and she will share her war stories. She has secrets, and I will get them out of her, but it will be done in private."
As Mariella sat up and put her clothes back on, she could see a few potential issues with this plan. She wasn't sure if she should voice them, but Charles had mentioned some concerns about past pheromone addiction. As wonderful as it was, it might not be suitable for Mimi. While a collar might be beneficial, Mariella understood that pheromone addiction would be the honey, and the collar would be the vinegar, so balance was needed.
Damon looked at her sharply and said, "Well, what's bothering you? Speak up."
Mariella sighed and said, "Well, Charles once told me several things that Damien did to Mimi. He addicted her multiple times to the smell of wet dog, which means pheromone addiction. So, she might not react the same way I do. It might have brought up trauma and it might affect your relationship."
Damon grunted, deep in thought, and said, "Good to know. It doesn't really change anything. All I have to do is use my pheromones for good. I realize how much panic she experiences with her medical issues, but we need to help her. She can't fight this alone, nor should she. It's good to know so we can keep an eye on her mental state, to detect any issues. I won't ask, but I will act."
Mariella recognized the expression on her husband's face, so she decided not to argue and let things be. Time would tell, and one could hope that things would unfold as they should.
