MHOS Part 25: We don't talk about that Soap selling MLM (Day 6)

Morning has come too soon. I roll over and reach for Husk and he's not there. I shoot up and look around and he's not in the room at all. I scramble down the stairs to search for him to see him standing in the kitchen making coffee. Husk does a double take as he notices I am behind him wearing nothing but his old bowtie around my arm and smiles as he approaches me with coffee.

"It definitely looks better on you" he says as he hands me my cup of coffee and grazes his hand along the arm the bow is tied around. I take a sip of my coffee and say "I agree" as I walk away cheekily. I hear his laughter as I head back upstairs picking my panties up off the floor to throw them in the laundry and get dressed.

I come back downstairs in a ripped up upcycled t-shirt and cut off denim jean shorts I made from Gary's clothes. Husk has some frozen breakfast cubes on the stove. He looks appreciatively at the days ensemble and asks "So what is on the schedule today? You've got 2 homes. Made two deals. Own one soul. And went hunting with the strongest overlord in all of hell and all in your first five days. Time to build an army? Wage a war? Become an overlord yourself?"

I hop up on the dining room table placing my empty cup beside me and say "Ooo all of that sounds good, but first I think.. breakfast.. and more coffee. Husk takes my cup, kisses my cheek and says "Coming right up" as he makes his way into the kitchen to make me another coffee and stir the breakfast cubes up. He returns with both and I tell him about my plan to go up a new road and do some traveling.

"Oh yeah!?" He asks "Where are you headed?" I reply "Indulgence? I see it when I am at Cannibal town but have never gone down that road before so I thought today would be a fantastic day to do it! I see Gluttony is in that direction I might swing by there for a hunt.. I'm sure Gluttony and Chaos will be ripe for the hunt."

Husk sits on a chair eating his breakfast at the table, which gave me a chance to run my hand though his hair as we ate and played house for the morning. We knew it couldn't last, but I have gotten comfortable taking what I can while I can take it. Husk does the dishes and I grab my things so we can head out.

I drive Husk home through Lust as I have learned the local streets while patrolling the area and then I head to Chaos to drive along the outskirts of Lust and turn down Indulgence just past Cannibal town hoping for a hunt along the way. I slow my car down, roll down the window and quietly hum my siren song hoping to see something come out of the woods. I am disappointed but not surprised, I hunted pretty hard along here yesterday with Alastor.

Then those intense moments flash through my mind and I slam on the breaks.. Alastor wiping the blood off my chin then licking the blood off his own finger.. the hot breath of his moan on my cheek as we shared a still bleeding heart.. licking the blood off my finger as he buried his face in the heart.. him telling me to suck the blood off his thumb as he fed me. It was all sexual.. it.. was.. all.. fucking.. sexual.. the memories alone have stopped me dead in my tracks & have my heart pounding in my ears..

Was sending Husk over with food.. After care? 

I can't hunt right now, I can't even fucking think.. I step on the gas and follow Chaos around the entire circle to head home the long way.. I need to clear my head.

Gluttony and Chaos has a few people along the way, but I refuse to get out of the car to hunt.. Gary my boy, you will be plowing them down if they are stupid enough to be in the road today.. No one along Gluttony seems to be, they all get out of the road as I approach.. Smart people get to live another day.. As I drive past the Sloth exit I come across Greed..

Greed & Chaos will get me what I need on the way home.. And just as I thought.. People.. I wonder how many of them are stupid people.. I begin wailing on the horn to watch their reactions.. As I had hoped, a few angry people ran into the road to yell at me and they went down like dominoes.. which made me snort and feel just a little bit better in the moment. I don't need to think anymore.. I'll continue to mow down people on Chaos until I get home. Then when I get home I can unwind with some more studying up on my Lore.

Driving along Chaos and Envy was much of the same.. bursts of laughter every few minutes as I made my own speed bumps.. Fuck I'm lazy.. can't even be bothered to get out of my car today.. And still bringing my numbers up.. Sunday afternoon driving should always be like this I swear.. Then I come across Wrath.. Oh yes.. I can definitely blow off some steam here.. I turn up Predator Alley along Wrath and park Gary along the main road to suit up. I walk around to the trunk I wrap some rope on my waist a chain across my chest, tie my bow around my thigh and slide a hunting knife in there and grab a solid metal walking stick with a fantastic amethyst head on it that said seaweed, but deadly.. and that tickled me.

I go walking down the road where I happen upon a clean looking club.. I mean.. the logo was.. like.. soap.. So I went in to check it out.. And then after some time elapsed I left.. We're not going to talk about it..

I'm limping and covered in bruises and blood, feeling more relaxed than I have after any night out hunting so far & that's beautiful. I also have a cute new set of brass knuckles with those same apples I am starting to see everywhere.. I love a good theme, so I am living for the red and gold apples on the knuckles.. absolutely adorable.. I look for an inscription and I find "Designs by Luci" I don't know who Luci is, but she's got some fantastic taste..

I hurry home because I need to wash the blood off and get cleaned up to see Peaches soon. I park Gary at Husks grab all the water proof stuff and take it with me as I dive into the lake and head for home, the blood washing itself clean for me, which I absolutely love.. I am clean before I get into my cave.

I unload my duffle bag and put the water proof weapons in the growing cache I have in the back of the cave and close my eyes and let my body float in the cave and I can feel the water healing my injuries. it's not quick, bit it's quicker than doing nothing, which is exactly what I planned on doing about them. I float and as I touch the wall with my hand I push off with my fingers and start floating in a new direction. I get lost in my own little world, enjoying how freeing the floating is.. I have nothing to do but float... and eat.. I totally forgot to do that while I was doing the things I am not supposed to talk about and beep beep beep It's time to go see Peaches. I twirl under the water and slowly spin my way to the surface I get out of the water and suddenly I am starving.. I grab Gary and drive to Peaches place.. too hungry to walk.. and when I arrive she freezes in place and tears start to well up in her eyes and she runs to the front door throwing her arms around me

"Oh.. okay! You're only late.. You came!" she said as she wept quietly into my arms. I wrap her around me like my little koala bear and say "Heyyyy.. Every night.. You don't like sleeping alone remember?" She stays attached to me and I leave her there as I walk into the kitchen and open the fridge "Uhh, what are you doing?" Peaches asks and I say "The last thing I ate was breakfast and I'm not allowed to talk about why I am late & where the bruises came from because some stupid MLM club that sells soap says not to.. but like.. the hunger hurts worse than the aftermath of the fighting.. sooo.. fridge"

I grab what fits in one hand and in my mouth and walk upstairs with a very pouty Peaches.. "Do I weigh nothing to you?" she says as she slides down my body. I wince as she does because somehow she manages to slide her limbs over every single bruise on my body. She apologizes and lifts my shirt to examine the aftermath and gasps.. "I do weigh nothing to you.. you were all beaten up and still walking up the stairs holding me with one hand?" she grazes a particularly black bruise across my thigh and says "You're not going to that club again okay?" her eyes watering with rage at the injuries. I kiss her on the forehead and say "I love that you worry about me baby" and I hold her tight in my arms as she twirls the tassels of my upcycled shirt with her finger until she slowly falls asleep and fades away into nothing. I finish my food and stay in Peaches bed for the night. I hurt too much to get up again, even to go home. I've earned some rest.
