"non mon ami go rest we know what we doing fixing de porch de siding painting . Bringing dis ole gal back to life, ya get me. Being neighborly not wanting anything but a happy master of the city. We even brought crawdads tatoes and corn gonna have a boil when we done fo the day come on out n eat you'll never foget"
The smile was contagious and he was a showman after all. Turning away to shout at a guy power blasting chipped paint off the boards in front the house, then nodding to the lion and walking away leaving him to either fallow or go back to where ever. He'd been told somethings and it was comical in way big bad predator let that bitty mocha vamp wear him out. What a way to get tired tho, he'd seen her in passing and whew fine weren't the word.
Ray would behave himself tho lions were crazy bout there women and this guy was huge. Self preservation was important to the rat for sure. Picking up a board nails and a hammer he got to work and soon was focused in that. ten men all sups swinging hammers and flicking paint brushes had his front and sides looking brand new by lunch break. They all had sandwiches and he devoured that fully dressed shrimp po boy with relish.

Tiber walked down the stairs with Ray,"Well I can add different meat to your boil just a way to say thanks, just tell what would you guys like. maybe add a bit of a barbecue, just say the word."
Tiber walked into the house and the need for protein overwhelmed him in a way that he hadn't felt since his first change. he first made three eggs, turkey bacon, beef breakfast links, almond milk with protein power, and three frozen pancakes. after leaving barely a crumb of that meal he felt the headache lift. the lights were not nearly as bright as before. Tiber looked out the window several times while cooking making sure that no one entered the mother in law Suite. While these men said that Gates had sent them, he was still somewhat careful about anyone getting to close to Chidera.
Finding a few of his softer pillows, he carried them back to Chidera making sure she was even more comfortable. locking the door once again he walked back to the this freezer, he looked at all the frozen meat and his mouth watered at the thought of ribs, taking several small bags out of the freeze he st them in hot water, pulling a spicy rub from the pantry, and a sweet homemade barbecue sauce from a jug he began setting everything up for the meat, he then turned his attention to the grill. he took the grate to the side of the house cleaning the grate, and started preparing the grill for a cook out that would last into the night.
As some food got done a few of the workers drifted over for a taste, they left very happy as they took a taste of the rub and the sauce that only enhanced the food.

By the time the rex got his Q going good Ray and the boys would be cleaning up for the day and setting up for the boil after finishing the porch in its entirety and replacing missing shutters on the back of the house already they had managed to finish a month or more of one mans work in the day. No one had gone inside because they hadn't wanted to overstep and would help with indoor things once Ray ran it past the owner.
Soon the air was perfumed with good food fresh beers and sweat, there was laughter and ribbing good naturedly not even all directed at the lion. He would find them goodnatured hard working and down to earth, Quick to laugh but also self possessed of a bit of one neuroses or another. Most either ocd or having tells, ramon cleaned his hand almost to much and checked his clothes and beard for cleanliness. Almost like his counterpart always paw and face washing fastidiously.
When most had plates or had eaten enough for the moment he went to his jeep and got the guitar out. Acoustic was different but playable Sitting on the edge of fresh cut boards and tuning it up. Trying to think of an appropriate song but in the end the first song out of his mouth was fat bottomed girls. His voice did the song proud and it earned him plenty of uproarious laughter from the guys.

Tiber took the good natured ribbing with a smile. The guys were just being guys, and to be brought into their circle of friends meant that they got to ride him a little because of second hand information he could easily accept that. The fact was they did him a solid by repairing the house it would have taken him at the very least weeks to get the same amount of work done as he would only be able to devote a small piece of his time to the work where they were able to focus their considerable energies towards restoring the old house.
As the sun slowly began to fade from the sky the area smelled of good food and laughter. This was what Tiber had imagined when it came to what he hoped the pride house would become he truly believed that this was what the pride should be, it should be a family where everyone could come and enjoy time together. Ray got cleaned spent time checking himself to make sure that he was clean. Tiber walked over to him
“The restroom is inside if you or the guys needed it. Feel free to use the head inside if you or the guys need to.”
Tiber felt comfortable with letting the guys enter his house proper as his most precious things were all in the man cave, everything else would be minor in comparison. As the guys started to walk into and out of the building, Tiber had a thought that he figured that he could get Ray to help with.
“Ray, you think that you guys could help me out with fixing the inside of the house, and show me how to make the house livable for Chidera, you know for when she drops by.”
Tiber had read articles about films that blocked UV rays that could be in Tiber’s room as she would not be moving about during the day time so the bottom floor should be okay, at least that was his thought. If Ray was unable to help that would be fine he was just hoping that he could help speed it along as he started to see that this was a really big house and he might be somewhat in over his head.

Normally it was a slow drowsy process of being aware her toes moved then her fingers and so forth till she was back in her body but tonight as the sun slipped away it was like shed pulled the bungee to tight and was all but slammed back into her body. That was a startling way to come awake and caused her a moments panic when the sheets under her felt different and the bed felt bigger. Then the smell of lion and the feel of one rushing through her calmed her down and coaxed her eyes open. Chidera recognized instantly where she was and quickly closed the link to a small flow as not to distract him.
Then it registered there was laughter and talking outside somewhere, and food smells. They had not been appetizing in some time but now it was like her nose had decided it was all yummy. Then yet another bit of strange as through him she was sure she smelled rat? Both lions hers and his looked at her like they understood her confusion at him mingling with some one they would love to chase and eat possibly. That made her laugh but she carefully slid from the bed and slowly as her mind was still tender, walked her self down and out into the almost dark.

Having handed over the guitar to a friend he was speaking with Tib" sure mon ami we can definitely do stuff inside and I can look into that uv window film for you ya dat bbq was slammin I tell you what" He nodded and would walk through the place once before they left to see what they might need electrically and otherwise. He watched as the new lady of the manor closed on them and smiled. "madame it is a pleasure we hope you are doing well this evenin" Bowing low to her then kissing her hand in a courtly fashion before winking and leaving the lion to his evening. Turning to the men he danced over and told them a few more songs then they needed to pack and leave the lovebirds to nesting. That got him some booing but more laughter and some speculative looks Tibs way. Soon he had the guitar back and was playing something funny but cute "Oh, this is the night, it's a beautiful night And we call it bella notte Look at the skies, they have stars in their eyes On this lovely bella note
Side by side with your loved one You'll find enchantment here The night will weave its magic spell When the one you love is near
Oh, this is the night and the heavens are right On this lovely bella notte "

Tiber sat down with some ribs and a helping of corn and potatoes. He nibbled tasting food as he went. The Songs that Raymond and the guys were singing help make the time pass. As the grill cooled and the music filled the air, Tiber’s thoughts drifter to Chidera. Watching everyone laughing and singing Tiber wished that Chidera would come and take part in the festivities. As his thought stole him away, a wave of energy built rolled over and broke against him. For the briefest of seconds he could hear Chidera’s thoughts. He had thought to ask her to come down and sit with him but the link slammed shut before he was able to think it.
He smiled and waved off one of Ray’s carpenters. He said he knew the look that Tiber wore, he said it was a look of love and longing. And that I would perk up once that chocolate vamp came down. Even if the carpenter was just riding Tiber it was still a lot of truth woven into his words. It was too true so Tiber was only able to smile.
The door to the suite opened and Chidera was walking downstairs it was as if he the sun came back out after a storm. Ray greeted her first, Tiber was watching her and smiling, his thought to her “How did you sleep beautiful? I was hoping to be there when you opened your eyes for the first time this evening but the night got away from me.”
As Ray told everyone to start getting things together to go more than one of the guys passed a flirty glance at Chidera, at least they were smart enough to not make any cat calls, as that would have been bad. As Ray walked back over to the guys and began singe Tiber stood closer to Chidera. His whispered in her ear,
“I had to get up you snore” He said with a smile.
Tiber was could feel her energy was had returned somewhat. Although she was not quite peaking, Tiber wondered if she lacked food or was it something else. Tiber was expecting a jab on the arm or maybe one in the stomach, from Chidera for that joke he made so he subtly tensed him stomach for the blow.

She smiled sweetly at him then pinched him hard in the chest. Not enough to break skin but to let him know who was boss" musta been your other vampire girlfriend because I sleep like the dead"
Smiling at the retreating man and checking everyone out glad he'd made friends she smelled paint and wood so she knew there had been repairs. Leaning up for kisses she tasted the smoky meat on his mouth and smiled more not able to eat but the marks allowed them to be linked enough she could taste food through him and it was amazing. Realizing she was indeed hungry "wonder if one of your new friend would let me drink from them maybe you could ask for me"
She wouldn't drink from him it might trigger the fourth mark and bind them forever. Slowly she eased the fence between them down a bit at a time so they could speak and interact but if she felt him getting overwhelmed shed pull them backup. Through that she was able to learn of his activities while she slept, keeping close to him and contemplating what she learned they still had the rest of the evening to master the ties between them enough for her to return home to the convent even tho she'd love to sleep next to him some nights shed need to be at the kiss.

“Ow… That hurts and stuff… well I guess you vampiressess do all look alike or something.”
Tiber said with a smile. He was expecting a punch but she pinched him which surprised him a bit. He gave her a hug as he leaned down to kiss her because he wanted her to know that he missed her, she was only sleeping but it felt as if she was miles away. He just could tell she was enjoying the taste of the meat that she had not eaten. That brought a smile to Tiber’s face he was glad that she could enjoy food through him, then his smile wilted as he thought of the extra hours he would have to spend in the gym burning off all the extra calories from the many thing he could try for her. He would do it for her, although the taste of chocolate was old to him she would absolutely die over the taste of dark chocolate.
As she glanced over the crowd there was a bit of a predatory nature in her eyes. Tiber heard her voice in his head. Wondering if any of them he knew well enough to ask to feed her, even though he was unsure he knew any of them enough to even ask, he thought a potentially better option “I’m not really sure they are friends of Gates who sent them here to repair the house. Why don’t we go somewhere and you can hunt.”
He was unsure if hunt was the right word but that was the word that the novels all used when vampires foraged for food. So he figured it would work in this case. Tiber could feel her apprehension at feeding from him because it would bind the two of them together forever. So she wouldn’t ask for his blood at least not yet. Tiber smiled as he hear her thoughts about being able to stay at the house when they wanted
“Yes I’m asking ray to help UV proof the bedroom so when you wanted to come home to me you would be safe.”

Josh happened by when Tib mentioned his lady needing to hunt and he blinked this was like his dream he'd always wanted to be a donor and turned to them " I didnt mean to eavesdrop but I would be willing to feed her I've been trying to get a connection in the kiss and they have enough donors but it would be my honor"
He was a scrawny kid of about twenty with brownish hair and bangs in his eyes with a sweet smile. Pushing his hair out of the way, He was a roadie for the band and had been kind of a tag along they had found him in a small town having survived a were attack. He'd followed them ever since and enjoyed being part of the rodere, he gave her a shy smile. Trying to look unthreatening and un-flirtatious knowing Tib outweighed him by a lot and could pound him to paste if the others let him.
Patiently waiting to see if his offer was accepted while the men behind him packed up slowly getting prepared to leave for the evening he had his own car so even if they all left he had his way home.

Chidera had been about to answer Tib about hunting when the the young rat showed up and offered himself. It was bold and unexpected so she sniffed along his skin softly tho most sups didn't get ill so he wouldn't have anything physically off about him. Mentally she wondered if he just really liked vampires or had some submissive leaning. Looking at her lion to see what he thought of the young man.
She circled him like a predator would, smiling softly to see that he didn't seem bothered and stood straight and still. Yes he would work but it made her worry over what Tib would feel when she fed if it would make him question himself or her. He knew what she was so there was no apologizing for that. She would do her best not to make it feel or seem sexual her feeding but for most vampires there always was some at least minor pleasure to it.
" Ok youngling go inside I will be in just give me a moment "
Giving him a sweet smile and then turning to Tib" well that is solved but I need to know that if I leave the link open you will be ok with what you feel when I do this sweetness. Id never want to make you uncomfortable that is not the point of our bond"
Reaching up to kiss his throat and touch his face in comforting and show him her sincerity even tho she knew he could feel it already with their bond.

More than a few thoughts played across Tiber’s face. He was unsure how Ray ran the Rodere, While he did this for Gates, he may not want his people being considered snacks and it may sour the relationship that they had. Ultimately If he, the he being Ray and as well as Josh was okay being a snack Then what could Tiber really say… well besides “here is some dipping sauce.”
Finally Tiber shrugged looked back at Josh then Chidera then over to Ray as he was packing up. He waited until Josh was far enough away to not quite overhear what they would say, even still he spoke low enough so that the kid did not overhear him.
“Sweetheart, let me ask Ray, as the head of the Rodere it would be a sign of respect. I would hate for him to feel disrespected. By our actions especially since he had done this kindness for us. ”
Tiber flagged Ray down and got his okay before he walked back to Chidera. “Well I know of your nature so that I will either be fine with or get fine with as you can resist the need to feed as I can resist the change. Just please be gentle with the two of us, he is a kid and I would hate for him to turn into a blood slut chasing the dragon of the feeding.” Tiber knew that feeding was to a vampire as sex or at the very least a sensual interaction. As much as Tiber wanted her every sensual interaction to be explored with him, he knew that the next bite linked them forever and that they were not quite ready for that to happen.
Tiber received her attentions with smile. He just knew that she was sincerely trying to help him get more comfortable with the idea. And he could respect that, slowly running his fingers through her hair his hands rolled down to her waist. He gently tugged her to him in a embrace.
“Go… do what you have to, I’ll be right her, by your side until sun burns out.”

When the big man came to him to ask bout the boy he almost laughed it wasn't none of his business what grown ups decided to do with them selve but he supposed he was sort of the only leader they had for the moment. So he gave his blessing and told him hed see him in the am. On his way home he stopped at a hardware type place and asked about uv film for windows and was directed to an aisle by a orange vested vamp personally vouching for a brand.
Said it was almost a foolproof install, which Ray liked but it made him wonder how they could test such a thing. Vampire parts? That was a creepy but vaguely hilarious though so where would one get vampire bits? That perplexed him and he brought several rolls of the film and a heat gun. Maybe he could ask gates for a vamp to test it on surely he had somebody he wanted rid of. If the film failed dead vamp if it didnt no harm no foul win win, least to him.
He texted the man and then went to find a drink and maybe a bed warmer for the evening.

She eyed him for a moment then smirked softly understanding his caution and it was understandable she didn't want a little moon eyed blood doll stalker type always showing up to be bitten. This would likely be a one time deal but maybe a regular pomme wouldn't be bad. Some one she could regularly count on to come feed her if she needed it.
As she stepped in and let her eyes adjust to the low evening light she spotted the young man draped quietly over a chair staring at the ceiling shirtless. Head tiling she didn't want to think what the heck because it would be heard. So instead she kept calm face and walked to him speaking low. " Are you perhaps under the idea that this will be like a movie? Some great sexual rush? Or are you into pain maybe I'm just curious"
Waiting for his answer and chuckling when she got it, he had nice eyes what she could see of them behind the hair. Dark almost black and shiny as a button, the hair made her want to pull it and that had her shaking her head the dominant in her reared its ugly head. She slid in next to him and took him gently by the throat hearing him gasp at her strength and despite her want to not make this at all sexual it was sort of a turn on. Tib would probably be kept awake tonight and that thought had her chuckling because she felt the moment he got it.
Yes this bond would be interesting for sure, lips brushing the flesh under and sinking her fangs into his skin. His blood tasted musky swampy and spicey it made her groan but it was good and she needed less of it then she would human blood. Taking only a few small mouthfuls when she knew she could have way more and pulling back. Sealing his wound with a bit of licking and then patting his thigh " thank you sweetie now if you do not mind put your clothing on and send my lion to me would you..I will see you around"

Tiber smelled the boy's sexuality. A involuntary snarl came from his lips, Tiber took time and walked the grounds. he had ten acres that he was able to walk and blow off steam. He figured that it would not take long for Chidera to take her fill from the boy and the walk would allow the building annoyance to abate. while normally Tiber wasn't really a possessive person, but he knew he needed to free that feeling as she would be feeding to stay alive. He could feel that Chidera had drew a hard line between her feelings. She was trying to make this about less sex and more about food. her making that hard line helped some, well at least it helped Tiber not want to turn the kid into hamburger. Tiber broke into a charge he, as he liked to say that he was just too big to sprint. as such while he was very quick for a human, he was slow for a lycanthrope. those who were smaller were just quicker so Tiber focused on strength, if he couldn't be as fast, he would be damn sure that he would be stronger, much stronger as well as he refused to quit, if he couldnt be a speedster he would be a tank.
As he ran he began to smell blood on the wind, it made him oddly happy different threads that tied to Tiber wanted to jump for joy at the hot spicy liquid. The lion in him needed out just for a taste, as well as the remnants of Chidera vampirism was in the Tiber's subconscious as excited by the prospect of more blood , it took some getting used to, but he fought it back as he changed directions to head back to the house, he saw the rat looking around wondering pulling to a stop he made a quick exchange, he wanted to get away from the kid as quick as possible as different emotions were riding him hard enough to bend his knees. walking up to Chidera he looked her over, he seemed healthier so the blood had did her well
"Well did you enjoy your meal?"
Tiber tried to make light of the situation, as he was working his way through the emotions he would be okay but he did need a moment to adjust.
