Chapter 26
I woke up early, showered, dressed, and took my bags to the kitchen. I drank my protein shake and then loaded my bags in the Arcadia. Returning to the kitchen, Grandmother and Mom brought their bags into the kitchen. So l loaded them into the Arcadia while they loaded the ice chest with the perishable food. Grandmother made my protein shakes and put them in the cooler, and we were ready. I locked the house, loaded the ice chest, and took off for Paula’s.
We arrived 15 minutes early, but Paula was ready. I loaded her bags, and we took off for Big Bear. We missed rush hour and went against traffic the rest of the way. Mom stopped outside of San Bernardino for fuel and breakfast, and then we climbed the mountain. The roads were in good shape, so we made good time to the cabin. I unlocked our gate and then relocked it when Mom entered.
Arriving at the cabin, we unlocked the door and opened the windows to let in the fresh air. Then we unloaded the Arcadia, and Mom showed Paula her room, and she bunked with Grandmother. Once we were settled, everyone was anxious to go to the hot springs. We grabbed the camping chairs and towels and hiked up the mountain to the hot springs. I went in first, and they gave me the chairs and towels.
Once everyone was inside, we set up the chairs, stripped, and entered the pool. I could hear a lot of oohs and aahs, but I was battling a hard-on seeing their nude bodies. Then all of a sudden, I came, and it felt like someone put an electric rod up my cock, and I passed out. When I awoke, I was floating, and so was everyone else. I got out and dried off, then sat in a chair and waited.
Grandmother came out next, followed by Mom, and they dried off and sat in their chairs. Grandmother said it happened again, didn’t Tan and I nodded, and they chuckled. Finally, Paula exited, said that was amazing, and joined us sitting in her chair. Grandmother said we figured out the best benefit was soaking every thirty days. We came up every week for a month and didn’t notice a sizeable benefit. But today is our one-month anniversary, and we saw a huge benefit.
Paula said she noticed it, too, and felt rejuvenated and energized. Paula asked me how I felt, and Grandmother and Mom laughed. They explained to Paula that the benefits were more gradual or subtle because I was so young. Chase finished before us this time, but he was in longer than us two weeks ago. Thankfully they didn’t tell her about my erection and cumming.
We dressed and then hiked back to the cabin, and Mom took inventory of what we needed for the next few days. She asked Paula what she would like for dinner, and then Grandmother and Mom went shopping. Paula said I couldn’t wait another minute and pulled me upstairs into my loft bedroom. My pants were down in a flash, and she was giving me a blow job. When I came, she managed to swallow it all and then pushed onto the bed, surprising me. Paula put on a rubber and hopped on, riding me like a crazed cowgirl. I was close to cumming, so I reached down and rubbed her clit, and we came together, and then both blacked out.
I awoke first and spanked Paula’s butt. She woke up laughing, and I said we must get up and be presentable quickly. We dressed quickly, went downstairs, and heard the Arcadia approaching the cabin. Paula said that was close, and we laughed. I went outside and carried the groceries inside. Grandmother and Mom came inside and gave me a knowing smile as they put the groceries away.
Then they started dinner, and I brought in some wood and started a fire in the fireplace. During dinner, Paula said, it’s so quiet here, and Mom said that’s one of the reasons we love the cabin. Our road is remote, and the cabin sits so far back from the road no one knows it’s here. Grandmother said what about going skiing tomorrow morning. We saw the signs that they open until 2 p.m., and everyone agreed.
Paula was concerned about clothes, and Mom said they have clothes to rent or buy at Snow Summit. I would rent them and buy some later off the mountain. We went to an outlet store in San Clemente and got ours to leave here. We rent skis and boots because the weather is unpredictable and we don’t ski much. There’s little to no snow in some winters, but we were almost snowed in this year.
I told Paula we came up here two weeks ago on a Wednesday. Thursday, the storm hit and closed the mountain road. We went skiing that day after I snow-plowed the driveway and road and had the beginner’s slope to ourselves. But after a few days here, you’re looking forward to getting home. We finished dinner, and everyone went to the den and sat in front of the fireplace.
Paula said David finished editing my campaign commercials. He was on a tight time frame with the movie starting again, so he worked overtime on it. I’m going to hold the snake one until the general election. I may use the others on the primary, depending on who’s running against me. I have a strong base and am the incumbent, so I may not have to use them until later.
After an hour, we called it a night and went to our rooms. I practiced my telekinesis, then sensed the area and went to bed. I fell asleep immediately and drifted into a deep sleep. Then I woke up and looked at the clock, and it was 1 a.m. I dressed and sensed the area, and two men were climbing over our gate with rifles. Exiting the cabin through the kitchen door, I quietly walked down the driveway, sensing my way.
When I got close, I stopped, moved to the side, and waited for them to come to me. One man said John, are you sure that the cabin is empty. John said yes, Sam, it’s vacant, and the old man died over a year ago. If it’s not, that’s why we brought our rifles. When they reached me, I knocked out Sam with a kick to the head. John stopped and told Sam to keep close, and I knocked him out with a punch to the jaw. Then, I worked them over with kicks to the balls, legs, ribs, and head. I took their wallets and rifles and set them to the side.
Then I lifted John, carried him to the gate, and threw him over it. I returned and did the same to Sam, then looked for their vehicle. It was parked off the road 25 feet away, so I carried them to their truck and put them inside. I wiped down the door handles and erased my footprints. Then, I picked up their rifles and wallets, returned to my room, and went to bed.
Waking up early, I put on sweats, ran down the driveway, and then up the road. The truck was gone, so that was good, and I continued to the highway. Then I returned to the cabin, showered, dressed, and went to the kitchen. Grandmother was cooking breakfast and said I heard you leave early this morning. I told her we had two intruders who thought our cabin was vacant. They found out the hard way it wasn’t, and she laughed.
Mom arrived, followed by Paula, and we ate breakfast. Then we got ready to go and grabbed the intruder’s wallets. I took the cash, and when we arrived at the Snow Summit, I dropped their credit cards in the parking lot and put their wallets in the trash. Paula decided to purchase a ski suit, and we rented skis and boots. Paula had skied before, but it had been a while, so we first went to the beginner’s slope.
Then we got brave, went to the next level slope, and had fun falling and getting up. After the third run, we were able to make it without falling. It started to get busy by lunchtime, so we turned in our equipment and ate lunch at the lodge. Then, we gave Paula a tour of Big Bear and returned to the cabin. Once inside, everyone wanted to go to the hot springs, so we put on our hiking shoes and hiked up the mountain.
I crawled through the opening first, undressed fast, and entered the pool. I had hoped it would help to avoid a hard-on, but it didn’t work. I came when everyone settled, and the feeling and effect were the same. When I awoke, Grandmother, Mom, and Paula were out of the water sitting in the chairs. Paula asked why my cock was twitching, and everyone laughed. Then, Grandmother said the hot springs have that effect on him every time he goes into the pool.
It was getting dark when we left, so we carefully hiked back to the cabin. After changing our clothes, Mom and Grandmother started dinner, and I got wood and started a fire in the fireplace. During dinner, Paula said she felt no benefits this time except for soothing her sore muscles from skiing. Mom said it’s that way for us, too, but it feels great after skiing.
Then Grandmother said I guess you should hear the whole story about this place and the hot springs, Paula. We bought this place sight unseen and knew nothing about the previous owner. Chase found the hot springs, and then he researched the previous owner. From what we could tell, he bought this area in the early 1900s. He was an older man then, and we guessed he discovered the hot springs, which slowed down or stopped his aging.
Then, he subdivided his land, sold five-acre lots, and kept twenty acres for himself. Benard, the previous owner, died when his truck ran off the highway and hit a tree. So after Chase found and tried the hot springs, he took us there, and we immediately noticed the effects. We’ve been going weekly to see how frequently we needed to visit to maintain the effects. As you’ve witnessed, soaking in the hot springs every 30 days rejuvenates and energizes. Paula said that if we soak in the hot springs every 30 days, we’ll slow the aging process. Grandmother said that’s what we believe.
We went to the den, and Mom picked up the story. Paula, you’ve helped Chase; we feel you are part of our family. That’s why we have included you in our secret. You can guess what would happen if someone found out. So, we never talk about the hot springs away from the cabin. If you want to go, tell us you want to go to the mountains or the cabin and leave Big Bear out of the conversation. And if you forget we are on the same schedule, we’ll remind you.
It was getting late, so we said goodnight and went to our rooms. I sensed the area, went to bed, fell asleep, and drifted into a deep, relaxing sleep. Then, my vision started, and I was in a hospital emergency room. A crew of doctors and nurses were working on John and Sam, the two intruders on our property. One doctor said my god, how did they drive here in this condition. They have been beaten from head to toe. The doctors ordered CT scans stat.
They have no IDs and were found unconscious in their vehicle outside. After the CT scans, prep them for surgery. I’m sure they have numerous broken bones, but their head and testicle injuries concern me the most at this point. The intruders were rushed to radiology for their tests, and my vision ended.
I woke up at 4 a.m., put on my sweats, and ran down the driveway to the road. I turned left and sensed the area as I went. I turned around and returned to the cabin when I reached the highway. After showering and getting dressed, I went to the kitchen and drank my protein shake. Grandmother entered, started breakfast, and asked if the hot springs affected me the same as last time. I told her it did and wondered why it was happening.
Grandmother said it could have something to do with your age. We haven’t discussed specific details of what has happened to each of us. That’s good and bad, but let’s keep talking privately about what’s happening to you, and we’ll try to figure it out. I told her I would as long as it was only between us, and she agreed. Then Paula entered, followed by Mom, and we ate breakfast.
Paula said you realized what day it is and Mom said yes, it’s Black Friday. Then they all said shopping, and I groaned, causing laughter. After breakfast, we went shopping, and our first stop was the village. They had nothing I wanted, but it was interesting browsing. Paula, Mom, and Grandmother got some clothes and leather gloves. Then we went to Big 5 sporting goods, and everyone got some after-ski wear or lounging clothes. I also got two pairs of thermal underwear and insulated socks.
We took a break and ate lunch, then went to the local Walmart, and it was a zoo. But Mom wanted a TV for the cabin to watch the news and weather. We got a 40” TV on sale for $149 and ended our shopping there. Mom took us by Snow Summit, and the place was packed with skiers. Thankfully, our shopping ended, and we headed back to the cabin. When we arrived, I unloaded the Arcadia, and everyone wanted to return to the hot springs.
After changing our shoes, we hiked up the mountain. I was last in the pool this time, and there was no way to hide my hardon. Thankfully, no one said anything, but there were giggles and smiles. My orgasm hit me a couple of minutes after sitting down in the pool, and I blacked out. Everyone was still in the hot springs when I woke up, so I must have been out long.
I got out first and noticed Paula, Mom, and Grandmother were moaning. I could only guess what was happening and laughed. They got out a few minutes later with smiles on their faces. They dried off and sat in the chairs, and Paula said I’m going to miss this and everyone agreed. We lounged for a while, dressed, and hiked back to the cabin. It was getting late, so Mom and Grandmother started dinner, and I got the fireplace going.
Then I unpacked the TV and set it up in the den on top of a chest where the cable and power hookups were. I turned it on, and it automatically searched for channels. Mom said dinner was ready, so I left it and went to the kitchen. While we ate, Paula asked when we were leaving tomorrow. Mom said it would probably be around 10 or 11 a.m., but we’ll check the weather tonight.
After dinner, we went to the den and were surprised to see a clear picture on the TV. Mom asked what I did, and I told her I hooked up the cable and powered it up. Mom said we must have free cable as she scrolled through the channels. She stopped on the local weather channel, and it showed a storm front due here tomorrow afternoon. Mom turned off the TV and said that confirms it. We will leave at 10 a.m. to miss the storm front and hope it doesn’t arrive early.
