Catherine was yelling at Brenna. "I can't believe you left me out of the fun again. Why does it have to be you who gets to be part of big orgies?"
"Really, you fucked a celebrity and then you fucked both your friends at the same time. Sterling told me about what you're planning with the Twistletons. There's that and don't forget it, I'm still your big sister so I get the privilege."
"Brenna, Catherine, stop fighting with each other! You're embarrassing yourselves in front of our guests" Ophelia scolded them.
Sterling took this opportunity to check his phone for updates from his labs. Jon didn't text him back to let him know that everything was great. That's when it struck him. Jon should have warned him about Catherine and Sydney's upcoming visit. "Girls, I think I'm done for tonight! Can we wrap this up?"
"Wow, are you sure?" Lucia asked after realising Sterling was still standing without any exhaustion. "
I have to check on Hunter! He had a bad fall" Sterling got their attention.
"What happened to him? Don't tell me that he did again?" Ophelia slapped her forehead.
"Oh, by the way, Mom, Sydney has something to tell you!"
"What?" Sydney gasped. "Are you leaving me to do this on my own!"
"Come on Syd! You can do this!"
"But Sterling, your mother is scary!" Sydney whispered to Sterling but he was in a hurry to see what was going on in the basement.
"Lucia, Brenna we gotta go!" Sterling put his pants on and went up to kiss Catherine on her forehead. "I'm sorry. Next orgy will be yours to plan."
"Be glad that I love you!" Catherine pouted as the trio left for the labs. Sydney felt a menacing aura behind her back. She turned around to see a completely naked Ophelia standing there with her arms crossed.
"Talk!" She said. Sydney looked up at her might presence and gulped.

When Sterling got back to his labs with Lucia and Brenna, Jon and Lola were putting their clothes back on. "Seriously, Jon? Is that why you stayed?"
"Don't blame him! You were having fun with all those hotties. We couldn't resist." Lola answered.
"We were worried that something had happened to you," Brenna said as she turned her attention to Hunter. She noticed his hand moving. "Shit, he's waking up!"
"Everyone, get out! He can't see you here." They scrambled away from the labs as soon as they could leaving Sterling alone.
Hunter opened his eyes. The vision was blurry. Sterling pulled a chair next to him and snapped his fingers to get his attention. "Fuck, why is it so loud all of a sudden?"
"Asshole, what the hell did you do with mom and her friends?"
"Ophelia and her friends,...Holy shit! I have to check on."
"Don't bother! They are taken care of."
"What? How could you?"
"Really? You're snapping at me." Sterling grabbed him by the collar. "Didn't I tell you not to use drugs! You could have killed them, asshole!"
"I had everything planned to perfection. If your friend hadn't shown up, I would have finished what I started."
"Still, you took a great risk putting them in that state of horniness. It's a good thing I showed up when I went there for your meds."
"How can I still trust you? You said Brenna will be mine to fuck but I am still waiting for her to at least show some interest." Hunter pushed his hand away and got up from the bed. "So, this is your laboratory! Impressive! I see you inherited the ingenuity from my side."
"Don't change the subject, Hunter! I told you we can work together. And you try your old shenanigans again! This is not how we were supposed to work."
"Give me a reason to trust you any longer then I won't use any drugs on the girls!" Hunter smirked looking around the labs. Sterling knew the risk he was taking by bringing Hunter into his labs because Hunter could recognise his studies but Sterling had to make Hunter feel that he had the upper hand. It was the only way for him to execute his plans.
Sterling sighed. "Tomorrow after the guests leave, I will have to drop Dad and Drew at the airport." Sterling clenched his teeth and continued. "I won't be at home for that period. Brenna will be in your room. I had already convinced her to sleep with you. You have to get her to do it." Even saying those words to trick Hunter was hard for Sterling. Everything he has built up to this point will come to an end the next day. Sterling extended his arm. "Do we have a deal?" Hunter walked up to him and shook his hand.
"You are indeed my scion, you will make a great Dio del sesso!"
Sterling and Hunter shook hands and they walked away. That's when Sterling got a text from someone.
'Taking care of a harem is indeed hard work. Who cares, I love my life!'

Right after warning Penny not to reveal anything that happened, Mallory went to meet her wife in their room. "If it isn't my beautiful wife."
"Are the guests all gone?"
"Yes,...except the ones who are drunk and are staying at Johnson's mansion."
"So, what are you waiting for...drop 5h3 clothes, Mal!"
"Actually, do you want to go for a walk?"
"At this time?"
"Yeah, most of our time is spent just on sex and wedding planning. I want a sweet night walk with you without any sexual tension!"
"Wow, that's...romantic. I'm down."
"Then, let's go, Aliza!" Mallory reached her hand towards Aliza. Aliza held Mallory's hand and they made their way outside.
_________________
"The sky is beautiful, isn't it?" Mallory said as she took a walk with her wife underneath a bright moonlight illuminating the surrounding grasses.
"Fun fact, there is a Japanese tradition where people say what you just said to confess their love for another without being obvious."
"Wow, you know stuff that doesn't matter anymore!"
"Why would you say that? It's cute!"
"Aliza, you're already mine. And Sterling's! So, why do you need to confess?"
"It's just you know, sometimes I wish I had a normal life without all the polygamy shenanigans. Then I look at my nephew doing his absolute best to just be supportive of his girlfriends, and I feel selfish."
"What if I told you, you can have that for let's say, half an hour!"
"What are you talking about?"
"You will see!" Mallory said as they both continued on their way.
The walk was indeed what Aliza needed to clear her head. She was too concerned with everything that had happened to her in recent times. With her cohabitation with Kevin ending in a disaster and ended up marrying Mallory who made her life hell. Her best friend turned into her biggest enemy and her enemy turned into her wife. Mallory on the other hand checked her phone for updates.

David was walking through the corridor. Jonathan intercepted him gasping for breath. "Jon, are you alright?"
"David, we need your help!"
"What! Did Hunter do anything wrong?"
"No, I mean he did. But you already know about it." Jon looked around to see if anyone was watching. It was a recurring thing in the house so he had to be sure.
"Listen, we're moving on with the plan tomorrow."
"What? So, that means, Drew and I have to..." Jon nodded as David pulled his hair back. "God, I have to do a favour for Mallory."
"I know. I will be there too."
"So, what about the people staying here?"
"Hunter was out of line tonight. If we wait any longer, there's no way we can stop him any further!"
"Damn, I'm already tired. How about the tickets though?"
"Sterling has a guy who changed them."
"Of course he did. I should have contacted him earlier. We wouldn't have got to this point."
"Didn't I tell you?"
"So, today is his turn. When will it be yours?"
"Don't act so fatherly all of a sudden! He might have forgiven you but I won't until you prove it. Our relationship is only professional!" Jon walked away.
David looked up at the ceiling and thought, 'I still have some patching up to do. Let's worry about tonight!'

After a while, Mallory came across a spot. She checked her watch and dragged her wife into a private area. Aliza recognised it. "Wait, this is the Gazebo that Sterling bought, isn't it?" Inside, David was waiting in front of what seemed to be a bridge. "David?" Aliza was surprised to see her brother-in-law out in the middle of the dark. The trees covered the light from coming into the gazebo area. David held her hand.
"Hey, sis! Do you mind if we go for a walk?"
"What is happening here? Why does everyone want to take me for a walk?" He comfortably placed her arms around his right bicep and turned around to see the entrance of the gazebo. Light started flickering as the bridge illuminated into an aisle. At the end, Sterling was standing there with Jonathan.
Sterling was wearing a suit expecting Aliza to come there. David started walking as Aliza walked beside him dumbfounded by what was going on. Once they reached the gazebo, David kissed Aliza on the cheek and whispered into her ear. "Take good care of my boy, will you?"
"More than you ever did, asshole! But still, thanks for doing this. It means a lot!" Aliza after letting go of his hands joined Sterling and held his.
"Hello! You look lovely!"
"Oh, please! I'm all sweaty after a big wedding organised by my nephew."
"Was it worth it?"
"Every single second is worth what we're creating today!"
"First day of the rest of life, babe! You, me and your wife!"
"She's doing the ceremony too?"
"Yeah, it means a lot to you so we planned it as a surprise. Don't tell the others! I don't want to spoil the surprise when they get to their day!"
"You naughty boy! You did want to marry us all!"
"What can I say, I am loverboy!"
Jonathan coughed to make his presence. "You know that you're aware of my presence, let me make this clear! I'm officiating this marriage and I'm doing this for the first time. So, I am asking you to tolerate any mistakes I may make."
"Jon, can you start the officiating part?" Sterling asked. Jon started to say the stuff he learnt from the dramas he watched with Lola. At the same time, Mallory joined David who was watching his son getting married. He was tearing up but held his composure.
"Hey, thanks for doing this!" Mallory whispered to David. "I don't know why Sterling didn't call Hunter. Then again, we were told he had an incident."
"Yeah, old man can't keep his emotions in check." David's eyes met Jon's.
"I wish Ophelia and Mom were here to watch this."
"Come to think of it, how are we okay with giving up on her? You are all over her all the time I've known you."
"It's my way of accepting the consequences of my actions. If I were a good father to my kids and a better husband to my wife, I wouldn't be okay with it. The fact that my wife chose comfort in another man means, I failed my duties to my house. I was furious indeed but my hatred for..." David paused.
"I see...so, care to explain why this Jonathan, who is supposed to be your brother means a lot to you?"
"Well, I've always wanted a brother."
Mallory glared at him from top to bottom. She suspected something was going on in the Johnsons' household."Cut the crap, David! I'm not as gullible as you might think. What's going on? A random stranger shows up and claims to be your brother. Why would a sweet and lovely woman like Nora hide his existence unless YOU chose to hide him? And all this horniness at the house suddenly went away since Sterling made the reconstruction. And somehow, my friends ended up in Hunter's room obsessing over a man's dick? You know something and you don't want us to know about it." David didn't even give it away. He knew that everything would be cleared tomorrow but he had to admit who Jon really is.
"You will find it out soon. Your soon-to-be husband will tell you about it." He looked to his left and then to his right where the ceremony was happening. "They're now kissing. And I think someone is waiting for you!"
Mallory looked to her left. A man was waiting for her to come running to him. Mallory who just fulfilled her revenge on the woman who made her life hell now had to come to terms with the other culprit. "Dad?" She walked up to Henry slowly. "Dad, it's not..."
"I know about your lifestyle. I thought you knew about what happened with your friend Penny and you chose to ignore it. Sterling filled me up with everything. I'm sorry for breaking the trust you had in me. I'm the worst of all fathers. But you, you're a sweet girl. You chose to prioritise the well-being of your family members over your mental stability. I'm really proud of you. May I have the privilege to walk you down the aisle?"
"Dad, are you okay with..?"
"Mal, I know you're happy. You like them both. As a matter of fact, I should own up to my mistakes too. It's okay to live your life to the fullest..." Mallory held his arm weeping like a little girl. "...oh, let's go then!"
______________________
The next morning, Sterling woke up between Aliza and Mallory on their bed. He still felt a little sore after taking care of that woman on the same night. After stretching his limbs, he got up and put his shorts back on. He made his way outside the room of his wives. He went to freshen up. After getting ready to go out, Sterling let his mom know that David and Drew were leaving. "I didn't even get to make them something to eat!"
"It's alright, Mom! The earlier we get Dad treated, the better." Hunter joined them in the kitchen excited about the fact that he was finally getting some action.
Sterling played with his facial expression to hide his enthusiasm. "Hunter, I was hoping to see you. Can I talk to you alone? You're the only man who will be here when I leave with Dad, so I should let you know about the things that need to be taken care of."
"Oh, is it?"
"Sterling, what are you talking about?" Sterling ignored his mother's concerns and dragged Hunter out of the kitchen. Once they were in the living room, Sterling started talking.
"Listen, I don't know how you are going to handle this but she's already into the idea of fucking an old man. Turns out, it's one of her kinks. So, let her do her thing first, don't even think about precipitating the things. If she suspects that you're getting to do this because of what we agreed on, she might back down."
"Let me handle the rest! I can do this without any additional substances. I landed your grandmother with pure love. Brenna is just a piece of cake for me."
Both of them part ways as Hunter went to his room, and Sterling went outside the house. He got inside his car as Hunter watched him leave with Drew and David from his window. With a little smirk, the Oldman pulled out a vial under his bed and looked at it carefully. He went downstairs to see where Brenna would be at that time. "Dad?" Ophelia stopped him. "Brenna asked for a drink. Would you mind giving it to her? She's by the pool." Hunter smiled as Ophelia passed him the glass.
