Poppa's Progeny

by Alta Hensley

  Emery, who they'd obviously forgotten was in the room, cleared her throat. "So, about this password. If you have it, Juniper, you need to hand it over."

  "I know, but the last thing I want is for something to happen to Hanna. She doesn't deserve to be treated badly because we used her password. She thought I was a progeny at the time."

  "Do you want to learn the truth, Juniper?" Emery asked. "If they are truly kidnapping girls, don't you want us to find proof? Don't you want to expose them for what they truly are?"

  Costello tightened his arms around her. "It's entirely up to you." He kissed her cheek. "If you don't want to use Hanna's password, you don't have to."

  "We all know it would be better if I did." She sighed. "I don't want to, though. Hanna was one of those people who really did want the facility to work for the girls who were there. She did her best to make sure that we were happy."

  "As she's working there, she had to have known about you," Emery declared as she stood up. "I know when you like someone there, it's hard to accept they might have been a part of something like this, but she was, and if you have her passwords, we need to use them to learn the truth about you. There are going to be other women they did the same thing to."

  "Unless Jaxton did make it up." Juniper curled her arm around Costello's waist. "What if he was lying to me?"

  "I wasn't." The man who was obviously Juniper's brother walked in the door, and in that instant, Costello knew. There was no doubt in his mind that this man was her brother. There were too many similarities between the two of them for him not to be. "I am your brother, Juniper, and I have been searching for you ever since you were taken." He looked at Costello and Emery to argue his case to them. "I even became a poppa hoping I would get some confidential information. When I finally found her, her cost was so high there was no way I could come up with the money. The only reason I eventually could was because I've been going through the online catalogues ever since she left—her face appeared about three weeks ago, and she was on sale. It took me that long to go through the application process." He walked closer, staring directly into Costello's eyes.

  For a minute Costello wasn't sure if Juniper's brother was going to punch him or not. He didn't seem to like seeing Costello's arms wrapped around her. But then he surprised him by extending his hand. "My name is Jaxton."

  Costello shook his hand. "Costello. I was Juniper's poppa."

  Jaxton nodded. "And now?"

  Costello rubbed Juniper's back and placed a possessive kiss on the top of her head. "I'm the man who loves her, and will do anything to protect her."

  * * * * *

  "And I love him." Juniper sighed, snuggling closer to Costello, enjoying the feel of his heartbeat against her shoulder. She could tell that he appreciated having her in his arms as much as she did being in them, because he pulled her even tighter to him—even though she didn't think that was possible—and kissed the top of her head again.

  "Do we use Hanna's password or not?" Emery interrupted again.

  Juniper's eyes met Emery's. "We use it. If she really did know about it all, then I think she deserves whatever happens to her." Guilt ate at her, but hopefully Hanna wouldn't be blamed.

  "Good." Emery left the kitchen, as the rest of them followed her. "We've been trying to work out the system that they use for their passwords in the hope that we'd be able to break through, but the little we remember hasn't been enough, unfortunately. Would it be easier for you to type it in yourself?"

  Juniper nodded. The only way she would remember was if she was looking at the screen the same way she had been when she was behind Hanna. Emery moved over and Juniper knelt in front of the computer, seeing the moment that Hanna had entered the password as though it was happening right in front of her. Breathing deeply, guilt weighing down on her because something would happen to Hanna due to the choice she'd made, she typed in the long password that was full of a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. She didn't even know how she remembered it. It was just something that had stuck in her mind. When it was all in, she tapped the enter button and found herself staring at the welcome screen.

  'Hello, Hanna. What can we do for you today?'

  "Can you do that on all the computers?" Emery asked, excited.

  "Yes, I can."

  "Please do. The sooner we get everything we can the better, as it isn't going to be long before they realize we aren't Hanna, and then they're going to kick us off."

  Juniper went over to the next computer and a woman named Louisa smiled at her and said, "There might be other families out there hunting for their daughters as well." She reached out to squeeze Juniper's hand. "If we can protect Hanna, we will."

  "Thank you."

  Five minutes later, Louisa was in and typing away, the same way Emery was, so Juniper moved onto the next computer. Typing in the password became easier every time she did it. Within the space of twenty minutes, every single computer in the room was logged into the facility's computer system. Everyone was copying as much information as they could, knowing that they were going to need as much proof as possible.

  Chapter Fifteen

  Costello led Juniper out of the computer room and into a vacant bedroom upstairs. Jaxton had glanced over at them, but let them go, which was something Costello was grateful for. He needed some time alone with Juniper, to see what their next step would be—if there was one now that she was out of the facility. He quickly found out that he shouldn't have ever worried. She was kissing him before he realized what was happening. "June—"

  "I missed you, Costello. I know you have to go back to the facility later, but I want to make the most of the time we have now."

  Her hands were up his shirt, her fingers touching one of his nipples in the same way she had done before, and he couldn't help moaning. "I'm not sure if this is the right place…" She continued to kiss him all over. "Or the right time," he added.

  "I don't care," she said as she nibbled his earlobe. "I didn't think I would ever see you again." She lowered her hands to his pants and started unbuttoning.

  "Juniper…"

  "You don't know what will happen when you get back to the facility. If they knew you were here, you might not come out again, and we won't have a chance to do this. I want you. We have to live for the moment. It's all we have."

  She stepped back and took her top off, revealing a lacy white bra. His cock grew hard instantly. "They gave me new clothes before I left the facility. I have a bra and thong panties now." She smiled. "I'm not entirely certain of the bra, but it means I'm an adult to them, so that's a step in the right direction." Their eyes met. "What do you think?" She spun around slowly.

  He'd never needed her more.

  "That's an unfair question."

  Grinning, she licked her bottom lip. "Why do you say that?"

  "I love the way you look in them, and I like the way you look without them, but I can't decide which I like more."

  Even though he still wasn't certain they should be going down this road right now, he stepped closer to her, reaching out to touch her breasts where they were in the bra, his fingers stroking her rapidly hardening nipples.

  "Costello…"

  "Do you want me to stop?"

  "No, I don't." She undid the button on her trousers and pulled them down so she was standing in front of him in nothing but her new underwear. "I want you to have sex with me." Her fingers were shaking when she undid his buttons, and he couldn't tell whether it was due to arousal or fear. "And I have a confession…"

  He helped her to lower his pants and discard his clothing. "What confession is that?"

  She swallowed hard and whispered, "I always want you to be my poppa. I like the feeling of knowing you are taking care of me. I like feeling safe in your arms," she confessed, as she pushed him against the wall. She pressed her body to his, trapping him against the wall, and looked directly into his eyes. "Is it possible to have that without pretending to be someone I'm not? Is it possible to be the submissive li
ttle girl to you without giving up my freedom? I miss that feeling. I crave it."

  The warm smile that washed over Costello's face filled her with love. "Of course it is. The difference is that now this is your choice. You are choosing to give your submission to me. You are allowing me to protect, to nurture, to love you. None of this is because you are forced to do so by the facility."

  Tears filled her eyes. "So I can still be your little girl?"

  "Always."

  She kissed him hard and then pulled away. "But I want you to be my husband, too. I want both. Is that possible?"

  He nodded and smiled. "It is. I promise you that someday I will make you my wife. I swear to you that I will give you whatever you desire, whatever you want, and most certainly everything you crave."

  * * * * *

  A knock on the door interrupted them. Juniper almost screamed 'Go away!' but held her tongue.

  Another knock on the door, followed by Emery calling out on the other side. "I need you both to come out here. Fast."

  Both Juniper and Costello scrambled to put their clothes on and quickly opened the door. Emery stood on the other side with worry etched on her face. "We have to leave, now!"

  "What's going on?" Costello asked calmly, even though his possessive hand holding Juniper's tightened.

  "We've been shut out of the system. They know they've been hacked. We didn't expect it to happen as quickly as it did. It's only a matter of time until they trace it back to here."

  Juniper's heart stopped. "Oh no! Now what?"

  "We have to leave. There's an underground subway station that has long been abandoned in West Trent. It's the meeting spot for the other Nongovs before we all leave the city to go to a safer location. But we need to leave right now."

  "And then what?" Costello growled. "You keep running? Like hunted animals? Something needs to be done to those places!" His voice boomed against the dirty, old walls.

  Emery nodded. "For now we have no choice. There aren't enough of us for an army… yet. And we don't know what evidence we just copied until we have a chance to look it all over." She paused and studied Costello's face. "This can't be some grand end with all you want right now. Getting the information we need is going to take time. The facilities have been around for decades. It can't be changed overnight. Violence toward the facility won't get us anywhere, but intelligence and patience will."

  "And my sister? Am I just supposed to forget about my sister?"

  Emery shook her head and placed a calming hand on Costello's shoulder. "We will find her. I promise you that. But right now, we don't have a lot a time. The girls and Jaxton are packing up whatever we can carry, but we need both of your help."

  "Of course," Juniper said, as she started to pull Costello with her downstairs. But he pulled back and shook his head.

  "I need to go back to the facility. I should go now, before they realize I was here."

  "What? No! You can't," Juniper screamed, feeling as if her heart was shattering into a million pieces. "Stay with me! Stay with us. It isn't safe for you to go back."

  "She's right," Emery agreed. "It also isn't safe for us if you go back. If they find out, they may be able to pull information from your brain and reveal everything you know. It's too risky."

  Costello remained still, then slowly nodded. "You're right. Let's get to the subway station and figure it out from there. My guess is they will be knocking the doors down within the hour."

  "So you'll stay?" Juniper asked, almost jumping up and down like a little girl.

  "We need to get moving," Costello commanded, rather than answering her question. Emery wasted no time and ran back down toward the basement, but Costello stopped Juniper when she tried to follow. "Things are uncertain right now. I have no idea what tomorrow will bring. But it's my duty to protect you. Not just because I am your poppa and you are my progeny, but because you mean more to me than life itself."

  Juniper allowed him to pull her into his arms for another embrace. "And I will always trust and follow your lead. Not just because I am your progeny, but because I am a full-grown, mature, intelligent woman… who happens to be madly in love with you. I love you, Poppa."

  "And I love you, my progeny."
