8. Millenium.

Mariella was angry, disappointed in herself and the whole fucking world. They had abandoned Mimi and made her feel like she was to blame. And then they just fucked. She'd shown the pack when Mimi's message had come through, and the Damons hadn't said a word. They kept going.

Adam and Charles switched with the wolves to another room. They had now been fucking for half a fucking year, and no one even thought a single thought about Mimi. Mariella felt the influence of Number One over the entire pack and knew it was all Number One's fault. But what the fuck?

Why, again, they decided to completely abandon Mimi and just fuck her. What could be so fucking bad that girl has done? She wanted to know.

She went up to Number One and said, " Why? Why the fuck do you make the whole freaking pack fuck for six months and forget about Mimi? Why do you have to decide again to put Mimi away completely?"

Mariella was furious. She looked at Damon, her green eyes flashing, and she would not be satisfied with just a vague explanation of the need to fuck. 

Damon looked at her for a moment and spoke coldly, his ice-blue eyes arrogant as ever, " Don't you get excited, darling? Let's think about the wedding. You'll have that big white wedding coming up with lots of men, and only you will be the center of attention. You need to prepare yourself to be the perfect bride. Mimi is nothing you can concern yourself with."

Mariella put on a scowl and said, her voice firm, her anger visible, "I'm not marrying anyone until this Mimi thing is sorted out. You have better be a damn good explanation of this."

Damon said, still he was being a real arrogant bastard, " Darling, come on now. At least try to behave yourself. I do have means to calm you down, you know? And this time, no pleasure."

Mariella said, "OK, no sex, no explanation. If you flank me, same thing, no sex. I'm not fucking anyone until I get an explanation for this shit. " She looked at Damon with fury sparkling in her eyes. 

Damon was silent. Mariella wouldn't understand his reaction when he couldn't handle it yet, either. That Mimi might have been married to Damien had driven him over the edge. He'd seen the paper too, and he knew Damien had done it on purpose at the time and had never invalidated it. He didn't know if it was valid or not, but the mere thought.

He had not talked about this with Mimi and he had only snatched it out of her mind as she had found it and then later on; he had gone and seen it for himself. He was unsure if he wanted to marry her again. Somehow, that thought made him see Mimi almost tainted. 

He wondered how Mimi felt, and yet again, he began to think only of himself. He was a selfish, stupid bastard, a sheer fucking machine, and Mimi wasn't having anything to do with him. And now he just has to convince Mariella that the wedding will be fine without Mimi. She would be everything he would need.

As long as Mariella's alpha power grows a bit more, he can then let Mimi off the hook for suffering in this pack. It would be better for her. Not have to suffer by his hands anymore. He needed to do the right thing, even if it would be the hardest thing in his life. 

Di decided to be a wonderful feline and gave Mariella all that thought process that was rolling in Damon's mind. Di knew Damon was what he was, weak male, etc. Only they, females, are strong and Di was enjoying her new alpha power and only now realized what Bella has been talking about all these years.

The power, even if it had come from Damon, was something so wonderful that Di was already planning a spell to combine it safely with white force and then, they would be stronger than that excuse of an alpha male. Oh, when she too gets to limit the puppy-making, the lust, everything. She had been taking that alpha power and using it to influence Mariella's fertility, too. So it would be up to her if she would get pregnant, not Damon.

Mariella listened to it with a sigh. Fine. Easy peasy. Right off the bat, Mariella teleported back to the Atlanta house, went to the safe, took the marriage contract, and teleported back to Ireland. She noticed she had not been in this bedroom and it had been cleared from bedding, but in laundry basket was empty.

As she glanced in the past, she saw Mimi packing carefully, smelling those bedding and putting them into safety for her to use, to keep that scent of that Damon. Somehow it was heartbreaking almost. She wanted to help Mimi and make sure she would feel safe.

The entire pack was out to dinner. Mariella also noticed what her clouded leopard was doing in her mind and with that alpha power. Entire power felt so strange for her, but she knew it would need to be put to safety and not let that damn cat in anywhere near it. 

Mariella went over to the table and said, "Now everybody listens a minute. I know we've been fucking for six months and forgot about Mimi, and you can thank number one for that."

Her voice was tight, and she was upset, keeping herself from exploding to Damon. She took a breath and lifted the piece of paper on the table. Looking at men and wolves before her.

"This is the wedding certificate from Mimi and Damon's first wedding Damien was messing around and putting his name on it, and little Damon here realized that Mimi has been married to Damien all these years. But when this is the show paper. The real license they applied for is right on the money. This is just a typo on a piece of decorative paper. This means nothing. You see, when one is set up by a relationship company, then this is a surprisingly common problem. And it's just a typo." 

She took out a tablet, which was on, and there was some document loaded. She lifted it so everyone could see it.

Her voice was a little snappier. "On this tablet, you can all see this correct application, and it has exactly the right information. If my sweetheart had said this in the first place, I could have told you this stuff. But as this one likes to brew some of these things up by itself. Then he figures he'll let Mimi out of the pack when my alpha power is ripe. But when Di gets quite a few ideas from that alpha power, I have to limit it to one place. Otherwise, one Clouded leopard imagines it will do as Mimi did and starts deciding when to breed, how much to do cubs, and if we are in the mood to have heat even. She had also one spell thought of combining my alpha power with my white power, strengthening me so that Damon would be weaker than me, but it is not so simple."

Damon looked at Mariella pointedly and noticed how Di was sort of smiling at him. She was almost doing good 1-0 to him. He sighed in his mind, warning that cat of actions and what comes out of it if he is irritated enough.

Charles said, " How do we even get Mimi back? She has no reason to come back."

His voice was angry, and sad, and almost given up somehow, like he would have lost something precious.

Mariella looked at Charles for a moment and thought, but Damon said in a firm voice, " We will give her a reason to come back. We actually need her, whether or not those three have alpha powers. I didn't see this before, but Mimi has spent years shaping her alpha power, developing it, and changing it. What I gave you was my power that I haven't even touched. I haven't shaped it and made it just perfect for myself."

He thought, greed was one part of his nature and the mere thought of that perfected alpha power inside Mimi made him curious and greedy. He wanted that power for himself, too.

He said, explaining, "That's why this thing happened. My alpha power reacted the wrong way, which then went out again as a psychic wave to the whole pack. Making us fuck and Mimi go to work. I drove Mimi to work, and she's not even necessarily aware of it. This pack needs Mimi's alpha power because she's made it her own. It obeys her. Also helps the entire pack, and it needs to be cleaned up. It will not be easy or painless for the lady because you have to push those points and push hard. "

Adam nodded and said, "What about those bank vaults? How do you lure a lady home?"

Damon furrowed his brows. Always, those bank vaults somehow disappear from his mind. And then he found it. Oh fuck, he's got a sly little bitch. Mimi needs to be disciplined on that one, but what kind? He was same time impressed and angry.

Damon said to Mariella in his mind, " Do you know, darling, that Miss has made me always forget those vaults with her mind control? I just found that compulsion. And I removed it, but the lady will be punished for that. I just don't know what yet."

Mariella replied, "As I said, Mimi is a very strong girl, and if she gets a fucking strong but lazy telepath under compulsion, then Missy should be taken seriously. Although Missy can claim she didn't mean it was an accident."

Damon smiled cruelly and said, " Fuck, it wasn't an accident. It happened in Atlanta just before the lady left. I had come back to Atlanta to explain to Mimi my whole reaction when she was packing her bag." 

His voice was an angry sneer as he realized his weakness and it made him upset, "I had just told you I was going to the toilet when I went to ask Mimi what the fuck was going on, she was packing her bags, and she said, "I'm going to go to work now, Damon, and you go back to Ireland and do what you want, but you just can't remember my bank vaults, they're nothing. Do you understand? Fuck for six months. I don't care." She didn't force me to fuck, but my alpha power got the idea, and as a result, we fucked for six months."

Mariella was shocked. Mimi could end up in a bad way when Damon unleashes his rage on her. Damon's voice continued to tell the story in her mind.

"The lady was furious and used her rage, her will, her alpha power, and her will-enhanced vampire side to give that command. Her vampire side was way out as I remembered that strong smell of burning candles, so my guess is she had some secret, very strong blood reserved for her because she did not ask to drink my blood. "

Mariella was truly shocked and for good measure, too. This was not a good thing, not even in the beginning. If Mimi was that fucking strong, Damon would see that as a challenge, and the lady would probably lose her powers pretty quickly.

Mariella asked, " What are you going to do? That lady needs to be reined in and her strength taken away not so little. But how you can weaken a creature like her? She won't stay weak for long. "

Damon looked at Mariella and said, " What do you think I'm going to do? Any recommendations? "

Mariella was silent and thought. Damon can be cruel and get Mimi into a weak state incredibly quickly, but it's not conducive to pack life. It should be effective, but workable without being too brutal.

Damon said, " Luckily, darling, you have a couple more Damons because Mimi is going to be very close to me for a while. We are having a wedding, Mimi will be in it then. But at some point, there will be a breeding season. There's no rush for that yet, but Mimi doesn't need to know that. "

Mariella saw Damon showing off his plans, and that was as Damon as Damon gets. Oh, that one young lady would be deeply pissed off, powerless in front of Damon, and completely in control after that treatment. She was quite surprised by that plan and it was not too brutal but it would get Mimi's powers down, at least for a while, and if they could keep her home, monitor her, so she does not get in a situation where she could boost herself.

One thing would be to make sure and control what blood she drinks. She has secret stashes and those strong types of blood should be first offered to Damon, as he is the oldest vampire here, and he should be strongest, but a lady does not like to share. But maybe this little punishment would teach her to share. It could be too that Damon would get the location of those types of blood, as punishment would be applied.
