Chapter 37: Financing

“Mia, how did you find out about my account?”

“Husband, you have forgotten what my mama and I do for a living. Months ago, you spent $8,200 on a backyard spa. I wondered, ‘Where did those funds come from?’ It was easy to figure out. Then I confirmed everything with Mama, showing her the accounts and everything.”

“So, both of you know about...”

“Of course we do; Lucia says she wants a blowout honeymoon, Jul, so you better step up.”

Increasingly frustrated, Willie lost her temper.

“Mia, are you going to explain what the HELL you’re talking about? Or do we have to show our pussies to everybody again?”

“Oh, give it a rest, Willie. Mama and I will eat your pussies later.”

Gabe’s eyes got very big, and his cock lurched. Julián’s reactions were similar.

“Gabriel received a fairly small inheritance from his late father. However, it was in bitcoin, and the value exploded. What was it, twenty times? Yeah, at least that. Later, he invested the money in more conventional ways, but he obviously couldn’t figure out how to tell me about it. Because of that, he tried to keep it secret from me.

“I want you to know, Gabriel, that you are very lucky. Because in every other respect, you are a perfect husband, I decided to forgive you. But remember, I am a Latina with a temper and a long memory. No more big secrets, ever, or I will cut off your lovely balls and show them to you. My mother will fetch the knife. Do you understand?”

“It will never happen again, Mia. Melisandre. I swear on my balls.”

She glared at him skeptically, and despite his size and muscular build, he seemed to shrink under her angry gaze.

But then she smiled, rushed into his arms, and kissed him. Enthusiastically.

While that was going on, Julián completed Mia’s revelations.

“Gabe very generously gave me a large share of his windfall, which I used to start my business. Willie, I teach martial arts. I have two other coaches and Lucia working for me. My teaching associates were the two other guys in the video confrontation. Our fees are on a sliding scale, and we emphasize coaching at risk and bullied teens. We also impart self-defense skills to girls and boys who face danger due to their outing as gay, among other things.

“Oh, and I’m teaching Gabe some moves. If he was not working and spent all day learning in the gym with us, we could teach him enough to be truly dominating with his strength and physique.”

“Christ in a rowboat!” exclaimed Willie. “These guys are perfect men, they’re making me question my homosexuality. Well, almost. Mia, Lucia, in a previous life you must have rescued an entire village to be rewarded with these great guys.

“Tricia, you said that your uncle has an ex-wife; who’s family is responsible for this mess?”

“Yeah, that’s right. And, yes, his ex, Sara, is the worst human being I have ever encountered. She cut you off, didn’t she?”

“Well, uh, I’m much too shy to talk about sexual topics with my niece, but yeah, she did.”

“Fuck! You should have told me, you could have had my pussy then whenever you wanted, if you could get me away from my ‘minders.’ If you didn’t have Lucia, you could be fucking me right now, even.”

“Tricia!” Willie had a warning tone. “I think we should leave you now; I need to spank my girlfriend. I’ll go looking for some expert stylists for Trey here, starting tomorrow.

“Lucia, please take Jul and help him forget his niece is female. Gabe, you’re a contractor, right? Can you do something to the fence panels so we can slip through, instead of over, the fence between our properties? I made a sort of rope thing to use as a stile, but it’s not ideal.

“Mia. God, Mia, I had no idea gardening with you could turn into whatever this is. I’m sure your mama deserves some of the credit for how wonderful you are. If we can pull this off and save Tricia, I will owe you an unpayable debt.”

Lucia added, “Before you go, I just wanted to say, I’m part-time over at the business. If you want to come over during the daytime and help me with those heavy spa covers, we can have a nice soak and pummeling with the jets. It’s an open invitation. By the way, the spa is good for my back pain, and it’s also good for cramps.”

“No shit!” Tricia folded her hands in supplication and wheedled. “Willie! Can we get one? Please, please, please?”

“I need to spank you so much. So many times.”

“Goody!”

“We’re leaving!”

Laughing, the two went out the back door and grabbed their clothes off the bench by the spa.

“Her full name is Melisandre? That’s so beautiful!”

Tricia agreed, and they climbed over the fence into Willie’s backyard.
