A Stainless Steel Cat (15 page)

As quickly as hers came on, Royce's came on at nearly the same time. He let it go, releasing into her with very little buildup himself, and shot his hot cum deep into her with a gasp and a sigh. Instead of the usual multiple spurts, his cum shot out in one long jetted flow as he came. "Yyyyyessss!" He moaned as he unloaded his cum into her, flooding her with his seed.

As they recovered, holding and kissing each other, Tam's mind drifted. She remembered thinking how cute he was when he'd first offered to help with her groceries. She usually didn't get so much, but that day she'd shopped hungry. She remembered that after that, she shopped for more than usual, and he would show up to help her again. She didn't think she'd done it on purpose, but she enjoyed his company, so probably subconsciously? She wasn't sure, but she was glad that it turned out that way.

"You are so wonderful, Tam." He whispered wonderingly, his eyes fixed on hers. "Very sweet, and very beautiful."

"And I'm all yours, Baby." She replied in a sultry whisper, kissing him lovingly.

"Mmmmmm." He moaned into her kiss, his tongue wrestling with hers sensually.

Lisa Keen barely made it through her day of meetings with constituents, but managed somehow. Her mind was on dinner that night, and she had already ordered the caterers for the event. Her nervousness stemmed from how her other children would react to actually meeting their half brother for the first time. Leonard would be the easiest to win over, she was sure. The twins, closer than normal siblings, would be harder to deal with, but then Royce could be very charming, from what she'd seen of him so far.

'I hope he knows what he's in for.' She grinned to herself. 'He's a good kid... for a cat burglar.'

He wasn't like normal cat burglars, though. While he'd stolen the files from her, and blackmailed her... in a VERY unconventional way, that was the point. He just wanted her to do the right thing. She'd read the file that the police had on The Steel Cat already, and it seemed that he acted more as a vigilante during the two cases involving the L.A. City Councilmen. 'Well, best to leave that part of his personality a secret.' She decided. She didn't want to lose his trust, and she definitely wanted him in her life and her family's lives. It was a narrow ledge she was walking, and she knew it.

One of her concerns was taken care of already, though. True to his word, he had delivered the folder on the gang to the cops in a brazen fashion that made her smile when she'd read the report on it. 'The kid has style!' she thought.

As soon as she was able, she left the office and headed home to see her family. Two more hours, and Royce would be there with Tam for dinner.

Royce and Tam did indeed have to go shopping for something for Tam... A new car. While she'd found a good dress in her closet, she wasn't sure about showing up to the Beverly Hills mansion in her beat up old Toyota.

"Baby, you shouldn't be paying for this!" She whispered when he told her that it was his treat.

"Well, I am, and it's my gift to you for your Birthday." He replied.

"But you don't know when..." She started.

"Your birthday is next month, on July 25th." He winked at her. "I snuck a peek at your Driver's License."

"You rat!" She giggled. "Fine! But expect something nice for yours next March 21st!" She stuck her tongue out, making him laugh.

"Stick out your tongue like that again, and I might have to suck on it." He said as he stroked her butt cheeks through her shorts in the lot of the dealership.

"Mmmm, not here, baby!" She moaned. "Not yet. When we get home!"

"Ok, you win." He chuckled softly.

They looked around for a good car for her, and made their way through the lot, looking at the cars on display.

Tam saw one that looked good to her. "Ooooh, I like this one!" She said as they walked up to the black Chevrolet Malibu.

"Sold." Royce said simply. "You want it, you got it, Baby Girl." He grinned at the shocked look on her face.

"But... That's a $22,000 car!" She said incredulously.

"Yes, it is. Think of it as a gift from my mom." He grinned and winked, and Tam laughed, remembering the money he'd taken from her.

"Ok, Baby. If you insist!" She grinned, smacking his chest playfully.

"I want to make you happy, Tam. I know your old car is on its last legs. Besides, I think I can haggle the price down some." Royce shrugged.

"Oooh, this I gotta see!" Tam grinned as she watched a salesman heading their way.

Tam watched in barely concealed astonishment as Royce haggled the price of the car down by over two thousand dollars, and with the trade in on her old Toyota, he haggled the price up on that. In the end, they paid just under twenty thousand dollars including taxes, and drove out with two hours to spare before having to head over to Beverly Hills.

When they got home, Tam was as giddy as a schoolgirl and nervous at meeting her boyfriend's parents for the first time... Granted, she'd already met his mom, but his step dad and siblings would be a different story.

Royce was just as nervous, not only for his own part, but because he and Tam weren't what most would call a normal couple. He just hoped his new family wouldn't cause problems for them. 'What will they think of me?' He thought. 'More importantly, what will they think of Tam?' He realized that if they didn't accept Tam, that would make any decision to cut all ties with them easier, if it came to that. His mom seemed to accept his girlfriend as she was, but the rest of them? They would have to see.

Royce showered first, then put on his gray suit and shirt, with his sneakers that looked like dress shoes, but were much more comfortable and functional.

Finally Tam finished prepping, and walked out into the living room in an emerald green dress that hugged her figure like it was made just for her. The skirt came down to her knees, and was loose enough that it didn't appear slutty. The top part accentuated her perfect C-cup breasts, and her three inch open toed pumps put them at the same height while accentuating her long legs in a very flattering manner. The whole ensemble showed off her dark cocoa colored skin to perfection, and her light makeup was all she needed with that outfit. She wore some dark green eye shadow and subdued red lipstick.

Her face split in a grin as she saw the awestruck look on his face. She twirled around. "See anything you like, Baby?"

"All of it." He responded in a dazed tone. "All of you. God, Tam, I might have to fight my new brother and step father for you!"

"Oooh, I might have to wear this for you more often!" She gave him a coy flirty look.

"Well, this IS our first real date, you know." He realized it just before he said it. "You look... stunning... radiant... beautiful... drop dead gorgeous..." His lust addled brain couldn't find any more adjectives to describe her at the moment, but he was sure he would think of more later.

"Well, thank you. You look adequate, yourself." She giggled as he snapped out of his fog and gave her a hurt look. "Just kidding, baby. You look scrumptious!" She chided him and gave him a long loving kiss, which he returned tenderly.

"I hope I don't smear your lipstick." He smirked.

"Don't worry about that, baby." She grinned. "I think I know where it will be later on tonight."

Royce had to think about that one for all of a minute before his eyes widened.

Fifteen minutes later, they were pulling up to the Keens' Beverly Hills mansion. Royce was driving the new Malibu, and pressed the button at the gate entrance.

"Yes?" The box said in a male voice.

"Hi, I'm Royce, this is Tam, and we're here for dinner at the invitation of Senator Keen." Royce said formally. He didn't know how much she'd told her staff about them.

"Very good, sir. One moment." The box cut off as the gates slid open to each side.

They drove up the long driveway, and parked behind several other cars. He cut the engine and stepped out and around to open Tam's door for her and give her his hand as she stepped out to join him.

"Thank you, sir." She gave him a warm smile as he helped her out of the car.

"My pleasure, dear lady." He responded in kind, inclining his head.

They walked toward the front door, and it opened before they reached it. Standing there were Lisa and her husband, Jeremy. Royce and Tam smiled as they went up the steps to meet them.

"Royce, Tam, this is Jeremy Keen, my husband. Jeremy, this is Royce, my son, and his girlfriend, Tam." Lisa introduced them, and Royce gauged Mr. Keen's reaction.

Jeremy Keen was stunned by the contrast between the two, but recognized his wife's steel gray eyes on Royce right away. There was no doubt in his mind that she was the boy's mother. He shook Royce's hand warmly, then took Tam's hand. "A pleasure to meet you both, but especially you, young lady." Jeremy said to Tam, kissing her proffered hand before releasing it.

"See, I told ya I might have to fight my step-dad for you." Royce said to Tam goodnaturedly, then looked at his step father. "Good to meet you too, sir."

"So, come in, you two. The twins and your younger brother are already at the dining table. We have steak and lobster for dinner tonight with potatoes and vegetables." Lisa said as she led the way through the foyer to the dining room off the large kitchen.

"You have a beautiful home, Mrs. Keen." Tam said respectfully, admiring the décor.

"Thank you, dear." Lisa said. "Oh, and call me Lisa."

"Ok... Lisa." Tam said nervously.

"And stop being so nervous." Lisa said playfully. "If you're serious about Royce, you might be joining the family someday."

"I plan on making that happen, mom. If she's willing." Royce said, squeezing Tam's hand.

As they entered the dining room, Lisa introduced the twins, Jennifer and Jessica, and Royce silently thanked God that they looked different enough with their hairstyles that he was able to tell them apart. They were identical, and while Jennifer was beaming at them, he noticed Jessica's slightly disapproving gaze on Tam for a moment before she also smiled warmly. Royce filed that away for later confrontation, if necessary.

Conversation flowed pretty easily, which mildly surprised both Tam and Royce. They rolled with it, easily fielding the safer questions. Royce told his tale of growing up in the orphanage, and how he became good at getting into and out of the place without being seen or heard. He was asked what he did for a living by Jeremy, and in response handed his step dad his business card.

"If you ever need your security system tested, I will find the holes in it, so you can improve it with your company." He gave him the spiel he'd developed.

"And why would I use an independent contractor?" Jeremy asked with his eyebrow raised.

"Because your security company isn't going to admit to any holes in THEIR system. I will give you a fair and unbiased test, which will give you a good idea of where to improve." He answered.

Jeremy nodded, impressed by this young man whose mother he had married. "Well, I believe I may have to employ you sometime." He said. "Do you have references?"

"No, sir. All of my clients are confidential." He replied. "Nobody wants to admit that they have holes in their security system, or that they had to hire outside help to find those holes. As you can see, my card says 'Confidentiality Assured', so that's my stand."

Tam kept a poker smile on throughout Royce's half truths, admiring the way he'd fielded those questions.

Jeremy shook his head and chuckled. "I'm definitely considering hiring you now."

"I don't come cheap, sir. I'm the best there is at what I do." He said matter-of-factly.

Jeremy considered what Royce had just said. The level of competent conviction in the young man's voice and the look in his eyes made a believer out of his step father. In the end, he nodded. "Well, I hope your business does well, and I may just have to hire you to test the grounds and house here."

"I think that might be arranged, sir." Royce nodded and smiled in return.

'Damn, he could sell snow to the Eskimos!' Tam thought with an inner chuckle. She'd seen his skill at sneaking around. Now she was seeing the charm come through when needed.

"So, Tam. What do you do?" Lisa asked, drawing attention away from Royce for the moment.

"I work in IT. Mostly testing firewalls for certain clients to help prevent against cyber attacks." Tam smiled as she explained her 'day job'.

"That sounds like a good job to have." Lisa said.

"It's a bit like what Royce does, only over the internet." Tam said. She could pull it off too.

'She's even better than I thought!' Royce thought as he looked at her and listened to what she said.

"I like independent businesspeople. You're both doing very well for yourselves." Lisa complimented them.

"We're still trying... mom." Royce said, still testing the waters to see how his half siblings would react to him using that word with her.

The twins were smiling, but Leonard scowled a bit at the presumption. 'That's another one. Great, just making new friends hand over fist!' He thought sarcastically to himself.

Tam noticed the look from the youngest Keen too. "So, Leonard. What do you do in your spare time?" She asked with a smile.

"Videogames, mostly." He replied in a mumble.

"Ooh, I love videogames!" Tam grinned at him. "Mostly action/adventure and Role Playing. How about you?"

And the conversations started up again with ease. Leonard opened up more to Tam and Royce, and so did the twins eventually. After dinner was over and they were getting ready to leave, The twins gave them both hugs, and Leonard shook his half brother's hand before giving Tam a hug. A hug that seemed to Royce to last a bit longer than necessary.

Royce and Tam both hugged Lisa, and she hugged Jeremy before Royce shook his hand. Lisa said she would call the next time they planned a family dinner or other event. Royce and Tam agreed that it would be fun.

In the car on the way home, Royce grinned. "I told you I'd have to fight my step dad and half brother for you."

"Well, Jeremy was just being nice, but Leonard came pretty close to copping a feel." Tam agreed with a chuckle. "That boy's gonna be a heartbreaker in a few years. So are those twins! Jesus! I mean, I'm not even into girls, but they're beautiful."
