Chapter 34 : Shannon in the place - part 1

“I think I made your little sister afraid!” laughed Shannon, caressing the back of her lover tenderly.

“She just assumes that you’re preparing to pounce on me so we can fuck all day I guess…” sighed her Minor, shaking his head sadly.

“That’s a very good idea… but it’s not what I have in mind my love. I can’t really let my assets unsupervised for so long, I’ve already neglected them long enough recently, because of my latest acquisition” she explained calmly, enjoying the sensation of his skin under her touch.

“Oh, so I’m just an asset among many?” huffed Alejandro in an obviously fake indignation. “I guess I should leave then and find someone who loves me for who I am.”

“Oh baby… you’re not an asset, you’re THE asset! I mean, do you have any idea of much money I’ve had to spend for the Equal Rights for Minors? And how much I’ve had to change, just to prove worthy of having you with me here, today?”

“Please, as if I hadn’t seen all the headlines stating that your wealth literally grew exponentially ever since you started your campaign” laughed her beautiful lover, turning to face her and instantly turning bright red when he was greeted by her enormous tits pressed against the floor as she laid on her belly to be able to better look at him.

“You’re so adorable!” chuckled the giantess. “You play with them, you find yourself trapped between them, you can ask me to show you every part of me, naked, whenever you want, and yet you blush like a virgin discovering the nude body of her lover for the first time! It makes you so cute, and it makes me feel so, so sexy… I love you, my Alejandro!”

Shannon extended her hands and caught her minuscule lover between them, bringing him against her face to kiss him in a fit of passion. She managed to remember to let him breath between the wildest parts of their kissing. Still, when their lips unlocked themselves, she managed to contain herself and simply smiled as the Minor tried his best to calm his ragged breath. She felt a pang of guilt, noticing that despite her best efforts, expressing her love in such an open fashion could still put Alejandro slightly at risk.

“I’m fine, sugarplum” smiled the young man when he noticed her concern. “Just a little out of breath, it can happen when a gigantic woman attack you to try and kiss you with abandon.”

“Abandon? It was a very careful and controlled kissing, little man. Me am smart! Me am not abandon!” joked Shannon, doing her best imitation of Bizarro. “Or something like that, I don’t really read comics, so I hope I haven’t done wrong?”

“Don’t ask me! I’m never been very interested in super-heroes comics!” revealed the young man.

“Really? Then what did you do of your days, back in Old Creek? I mean, you didn’t leave your house so I assumed that you spent a lot of times doing… I don’t know, whatever?”

Shannon’s curiosity was now picked. She realized that she didn’t know that much about Alejandro’s passions: he liked to exercise, tinker with things and paint, if she remembered what Auntie Ofelia had said - and she did, her near perfect memory was one of her strongest points when it came to ruling her financial empire with an iron fist, after all. But she had assumed that, being a shut-in, he had a “nerd” tendency: gaming, reading comics, probably porn and the usual bout of forums reading. But perhaps she had been wrong, and she couldn’t wait to learn more.

“Oh well… I had to study, of course. Online. And when it was over, I had my homework, and when that was dealt with… I mostly read history books, or articles on the net, and participated in forums – Minor specific forums, not easy to find but, well, I had time and I didn’t want to interact with MAJORS, even online… Other than that… I drew plans for some tinkering I had in mind, or I painted as best I could, this kind of stuff. And when Al’ came back from his schools and practices, or whatever he did, we usually spent the evening watching series, and then a family dinner and some more t.v. time, as a family. You know, usual stuff?”

“… That’s it?” asked Shannon, feeling absolutely horrified.

“Well… yes? What’s wrong with that?” replied Alejandro, sounding a little defensive.

“It’s just… You’ve never done anything fun?” blurted Shannon, who immediately regretted her words.

“Apparently, I haven’t” dryly said her Minor, stiffening in anger under her fingers and she could tell by his look how she had hurt him.

“I’m sorry” immediately admitted the titaness. “I didn’t want to hurt you, it’s just that… I knew you hadn’t the most fulfilling childhood and teenage years, considering what had happened to you. But I had expected you to be given… some semblance of a classic life for kids who don’t go outside much.”

“And what would that be?” sarcastically asked Alejandro. “Spending my life on porn sites, or reading comics and playing MMORPG like some no-life?”

“Alejandro, my love… I didn’t want to demean you or hurt you, you know it. It’s just that while I haven’t had the most usual teenage years, considering that you rarely becomes a billionaire playing video games or just readings, I have some… preconceptions regarding what is and isn’t normal and expected for someone to live through. And you… well, I hoped that at least, you had enjoyed some form of normalcy, that’s all…”

“Well, for a start, I find my interests quite normal” he grumbled, his brow still furrowed. “And… I don’t think I would be able to play at any game, anyway. It’s kind of hard to do so with just an arm.”

“Oh” reacted Shannon while her fiancé moved his stump under her nose.

“Yeah, most peoples don’t realize it, even Alaric had to be constantly reminded that a controller needs two hands to be used to play.”

“It’s true that it isn’t something that I ever thought about, but so many things taken for granted are probably extremely difficult to do when you’ve lost one of your upper limbs” said Shannon, talking to herself more than anything, even as she looked at her Minor’s body.

“You don’t say. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to…”

“Which means that there is a market for this kind of things, since nobody ever bothered to work on it!” chirped Shannon. “So, when the Project Renewal will be launched, I’ll be able to market it on that angle too! It’ll be so hype and youth friendly, I can already see the billions it’ll produce!”

“You do realize that you’re talking out loud, right?” asked her fiancé, startling her and leaving her blinking at him, a little confused.

“Sorry, I didn’t want to bother you, but sometimes I’ve got those ideas, often thanks to someone else, like you, and I just can’t let myself waste my opportunity. It’s how you lose money.”

“Okay… But… Nevermind. What would be the point of making more money for you anyway? You’re already extremely wealthy, and what you gain there, you have to take there, so you making your fortune grow is…”

“Excellent for everyone! I turn the wheels of economy baby. Don’t worry too much about it. I know what I’m doing, and I’ve peoples working for me who also know what they are doing. That’s how I became so successful, so quickly. Now, go on and take a shower my love, I think it’s time for you to leave the house with me and discover what life and fun truly are! Tonight, you’ll have discovered a brand new life.”

“It sounds lovely, but you do remember that I’ll have to be back home around 8.p.m. max and that I have homework, right? So I’m afraid I won’t be going anywhere today, sorry.”

Shannon was dejected. She had totally forgotten that Alejandro had school, and that he thus had works to do to get good grades. It was something she herself never bothered with, because she felt everything school at to taught her tedious and dull, and incredibly easy to do, when she bothered to work on it. But her fiancé had to toil on such trivial matters, and it meant he would have less time to spend with her. She would have offered him her help, even to do his homework, but she knew perfectly that he would refuse, and even be angry at such a proposal.

“Do you think you’d have some time for us today, nonetheless?” she simply asked.

“Of course. I mean, I woke up late, so it won’t be more than a few hours, really, but after last night…” he started before interrupting himself, blushing abundantly once more. “After last night I kind of overslept.”

“And you were incredibly cute my love” cooed Shannon, who had enjoyed a quite morning with her lover curled against her upper breasts, his naked body seeking her body warmth to keep itself warm and healthy. “But if we can’t go to my office, I’ll need to do some work here at home; not that I don’t have everything I need to do so, but I really don’t like the idea of not going to at least the Main Office. So, how about we do whatever you want to do today, and I’ll have Jim to drop you at home around 6 p.m. ? Sounds great?”

To her slight surprise, Alejandro didn’t jump to answer her. He looked at her as if he was thinking hard about something about her, and it made her feel uncomfortable. She hadn’t felt judged in a very long time now, especially considering her kind’s tendency to resolve everything with their fists and her sheer size which allowed her to do whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted, to whoever she wanted. And yet, her minuscule lover was obviously thinking about how to formulate something he felt she would react badly, she was willing to bet on it.

“Whatever it is you have in mind, I’m game sweetheart” she said to help him spit it out.

“You sure? I was thinking about trying to use the bond in the bond plane. If you’re really fine with it, of course! Otherwise, I’m sure that Hua-Ju will be willing to help me tomorrow.”

“We’ll do it!” spat Shannon, more aggressively that she had intended, since her Minor recoiled a little, surprised by her sudden anger probably.

But I can’t help myself! I’m the one who has the right to bond with him. I alone! I’m the one who loves him the most; I should be the one experiencing this bond plane or whatever. That Hua-Ju girl has ignited in the gigantic MAJOR a burning jealousy, and Shannon couldn’t help herself. She would never hurt that poor little Minor, she was happy that Alejandro had become friend with other of his kind but the idea that his most private feelings, that his inner being could be touched by someone else was simply infuriating enough to temporarily quash her fear at what such way of bonding implied.

“Are you sure that you’re okay? I will have to let me take the reins of the bond, my love” asked Alejandro, bringing the young woman’s unease back to her conscious mind.

“I… I’ll do my best” she managed to stutter.

“Okay so… We’re doing it now” decided her wonderful little man, clearly conscious that letting him rule over the bond was so deeply against everything she believed and everything she was, and thus deciding to make use of her current resolve.

With a gasp, Shannon felt his mind connect with her. It wasn’t the first time that he had initiated the bond, but this time, when her mind reflexively tried to delve into his own, it was met with a wall of resolve she couldn’t shake without focusing on it. It allowed both of them a precious amount of time to try and find a way to make this “bond plane” experience happen. Shannon felt a slight change in the bond, as if its texture, or perhaps its vibration, or anything else which made it, it, transform into something different.

“I think we should close our eyes” mumbled Alejandro, his voice strained a little.

“As you wish, sweetie” whispered Shannon while closing her eyes, conscious that opening his mind was even more of a suffering for the Minor than letting him direct the bond was for her.

---------------------------------

The MAJOR’s eyes opened and she was greeted by something she had never expected to see. She was in a forest, a rather bleak one, with leave-less trees, their bark full of mold and with crevasses looking like frightening faces. She guessed that to anyone smaller than she currently was, it would have been a terrifying vision, but she towered over the woods in a way which wasn’t possible in the real world, where she was already titanic, already growing slightly beyond her 5m13 (16f8) to move toward the 6m (20f)…

Yet, her real body would have been positively tiny compared to her current stature. She stood at what she guessed was 15m (49f2), dwarfing most of the trees, with only the occasional giant able to stand over her torso. And her size wasn’t the only thing which was magnified here. Her whole body was larger, more powerful and impressive than it was in real life. She couldn’t see her feet, even less than usual, because of the wrecking-ball-sized tits she now had, and her derriere was akin to two full moons crashing through the branches.

She was clad in a white satin, glowing as if the light of the night sky was trapped inside, and jewels, made of turquoise, rubies, moonstone and other precious metals and jewelry she couldn’t identify, glinted around her necks, on her fingers, her ears and even her nose. Somehow, she felt like an ancient Goddess of the Wild, lording over the lesser beings calling for her and her power. A wave of pleasure washed over her mind, but she pushed it back. She was in Alejandro’s mind, and she needed to find him, she couldn’t afford to vaingloriously bask in the form her status as a Tier 2 gave her here.

“Okay, so, if I were a Minor forever traumatized by a monstrous MAJOR raping my mind and crushing my left arm into a pulp, where would I be if… Ah! He must be there!” she rumbled to herself, turning around and locating a massive castle at some distance.

The giantess laughed, her voice booming in this strange world. She had to admit that her lover’s imagination was far more developed that her own when it came to mimicking the real world. There were some oddities in this thought world, some moments when the texture of the trees seemed to shift between slightly different style, probably because he struggled to remain focused on some specific style. But overall, it reminded her a lot about their childish games. Her Minor princess was in that castle, she was absolutely sure.

She casually carved a path of destruction, pushing aside the trees, even uprooting the smallest just because she could. Somehow this wide place didn’t make her feel less in control than she usually was. Quite the contrary even, her sheer size was making her feel incredibly powerful and secure. But I guess it destroys his idea that Minors are the true masters of the bond, she thought a little sadly. There is no way that any of them could be taller than me, that they could be more powerful. I’m like a Goddess here, no Minor could ever hope to compare herself to me!

“You really like to crush everything uh?” suddenly asked Alejandro’s voice, startling her.

“Gah, you surprised me! Where are you?” she screamed, looking around her, even taking a step or two back to try and look below her mighty rack, to no avail.

“To be honest… I don’t really know. It’s the first time that I’ve ever tried to craft something, and somehow this popped up. I guess I day dreamed about such a landscape for so long during my ten years of ruminations after the Incident that I ended creating it as a self-defense system… with the only problem being that I’m kind of stuck between where you are and… my subconscious, I guess?”

“Are you okay? Why did it happen!?” asked the MAJOR, turning on herself, crushing some more trees in the process, fear gripping her guts.

“Yeah, I’m fine, I think. I don’t feel bad or anything, it’s just… strange. I’ll try to deal with it and be able to interact with you, don’t worry. And why it happened here, it’s because you’re a MAJOR, or so I think. Or I’m just very bad at it, which is possible.”

“Why would me being a MAJOR would provoke something like that!?” raged Shannon, her jealousy overcoming her. “I’m your fiancée! I love you! I being a MAJOR shouldn’t prevent me from experience everything we can live together!”

Tears of frustrations ran down her cheeks. She couldn’t accept it, she wouldn’t accept it. That’s why MAJORS are truly the ones to rule the bond! That’s why God made us better than Minors, so we could deal with situations like this and resolve them! She took a deep intake of breath and squinted her eyes, looking at the ground near her. She wished for Alejandro to appear here, his naked little body standing near enough to be safe, far enough to be seen. As expected, she was rewarded with her lover’s appearing, identical to his real life appearance.

“See? I knew that this idea that you Minors were the true masters of the bond is pure bullshit. It’s like my Reverend says : God gave us the bond and we shared it with you, and it made us better” she smugly said to her lover, who simply looked at him. “Alejandro?” she asked after some second where he had remained silent. “Are you okay?”

“Eh, kind off. But it’s pretty hard to remain focused on this bond plane when I’m holding a laughter so bad that I will probably crack a rib.”

“Why would you be laughing!” yelled Shannon, her anger returning twofold now.

“Well, you’re boasting to an empty copy of me… sans some scars, I notice. It’s quite funny, and even a little cute, really. Plus, such a behavior from someone who sees herself as some ancient priestess or divinity, or something like that, is hilarious.”

“I… It’s not funny!” raged Shannon. “I… I don’t like it! Why can’t I do with you what you did with that Hua-Ju bitch or whatever!? I…”

“She’s not a bitch!” roared Alejandro’s voice. “Come on Shannon, calm down! It’s not something so bad that you have to lose your shit like that! I told you who would have to work on it, didn’t I? Geez, talk about a temper tantrum…”

“I…” angrily started Shannon, before stopping herself. She felt both insulted by her inability to bring her Alejandro here, to witness him as he truly felt, so she could help him heal and accept himself, so he could see how great he was.

“Look, I understand it, you’re frustrated, and you hate not being in power for once, and I understand that you believe that it’s not natural that I could do some things that you can’t with the bond. But, Shannon. It’s as if… It’s as if Hua-Ju gave me the possibility to own something I thought belonged to Joseph… something to take away from him, to make him… to make him miserable, even today.”

“Oh Alejandro… I hadn’t understood that you felt like that” replied Shannon, suddenly very ashamed of herself. “I’m sorry, it’s just that… I hate the idea that any girl could… could so something with you that I can’t - when it isn’t physically impossible for us to do so” she hastily added to avoid some confusion with what she was pushing him to do: explore relations with other women.

“Isn’t the case for every MAJOR? You always fight for us Minors, you know?” he taunted in reply.

“That’s… true” she admitted, kicking a tree so hard that it broke in two. “But we’re wired that way! I…”.

She sighed and waved her illusory version of Alejandro away, before sitting and cradling as best she could her whole body, her knees pushing against her breasts as she gripped them with her arm. She let her head rest on the table of her tits, sighing slowly. She closed her eyes in this strange place and let go of her anger as best she could. It wasn’t perfect, simmering resentment remained, but she felt that she had a far better handle on it. Suddenly, she felt something shift in the world around and when she opened her eyes, she was sitting near the entrance gates of the castle.

“How… Humpf, I guess you moved me or something” she said to the empty air around her, waiting for an answer which never came. “Alejandro?”

“I’m here” said a muffled voice from beyond the big door of the castle.

Slowly, it opened and out came the form of her Minor fiancé. A loud gasp escaped Shannon’s lips and it took all she had to not rush to his side and shield him from the world. His body was cracked everywhere, as if he had been made of glass, after all, and his left arm… it was just minuscule fragments of broken glass, held together by nothing visible, forming the shape of his missing arm in the barest of way. And somehow, he seemed to radiate pain. She suspected that he hadn’t noticed it, but she had and Shannon wouldn’t tell him.

“So bad, uh? I expected at least a hug” joked the Minor, looking at himself dismissively. “But I guess that I’m a little too freaky for that here. I mean, I could perhaps cut you here!”

“As if! I don’t think you could hurt me, even if you wanted” smiled Shannon, extending her arm to lightly touch his face.

“Careful with that finger! It’s ginormous!” laughed Alejandro, doing his best to mask his uneasiness behind poor humor.

“Yes it is… like everything about me. I’m enormous and you are not. You know, just for once, I think I would like to be the same size as you…” she dreamed out loud.

“Shannon?”

“I know that it’s not possible, even here… but I would still want to experience it, to look you in the eye… perhaps even up to you?”

“Shannon” repeated Alejandro, more insistently.

“Wouldn’t it be crazy? I looking up to you… and perhaps I would be better able to understand Minor’s struggles if it happened. But I can’t even make you feel good while bonding. What a terrible girlfriend I am.”

“Oh, it’s mostly the fact that you don’t listen to me which is the most grating” huffed Alejandro.

“What!? I always… listen… to… to… you…” barked the MAJOR, her voice slowly losing its strength when she looked up at a slightly worried Minor.
