The hivemind is conquering for me?

A few minutes earlier...

"Willow will you calm down, Its not like your meeting your partners parents, your just meeting my mom. Its not a big deal." Rhea said to her pink haired best friend. "Its easy for you to say that Rhea, you grew up around nobles and all the complicated stuff that comes with it. You know full well I have no experience with that.

I mean the look your father gave me was enough to send shivers down my spine even though I can blow him up in an instance." Willow responded.

Rhea scrunched her nose at the mention of her father. "My father is a pig and I am sorry for that. However, my mother is just a older version of me and therefore will love you." Rhea said as she took a sip from her red fruity cocktail. Willow mimicked and drank her fruity pink drink that was non alcoholic.

Suddenly from behind them, Willow and Rhea heard a scream of delight that did not care about the others present in restaurant.

"Kiyaaaaah!" Kathrine screamed in delight as I watched her speed over to the red haired woman.

The woman in question turned to face the high pitch shriek and I raised my eyebrows in response.

The woman was 6ft 2 in her heels and was beautifully enchanting. She looked slightly older than myself at around 20, though regarding her being twins with Nathanos was actually 25. She had grey eyes like her brother, but that is where the similarities end.

With her well defined nose, sharp eyebrows, full red lips, sharp jawline and shoulder length wavy red hair, she looked very similar to what Kathrine would have looked like at that age.

She was wearing a pencil strap sexy red dress that clung criminally to her curves, outlining her excellent physique and was cut exceptionally low, revealing a more than modest amount of her D sized cleavage. A small black belt around her waist only emphasised the point of her well in shape body and brought the outfit to almost completion.

She also wore a white choker around her neck with a silver necklace that held a ruby at the end.

Upon realising who was making the racket, Rhea stood up and as if it was a mating call, shrieked back. "Kiyaaah!"

The patrons of the restaurant looked over with questioning looks on their faces, but decided to ignore them as they knew that antagonising two loud women during greetings can turn into an even bigger kerfuffle, that and some recognised Kathrine and decided it was better to just go back to their meals and drinks.

As they met for a hug, they both leaned in and gave a series of *Mwah**Mwah**Mwah**Mwah**Mwah**Mwah* quick peck kisses on the cheek before Kathrine broke up the hug and said. "Oh darling girl, I've missed you soooo much. Knowing your job and what you do just breaks my old heart not knowing if you are dead or alive."

Rhea then brought her finger to her lips and whispered. "Shhh mama, you know my work is top secret. You cant go blurting to the whole patronage of the restaurant." Kathrine put her fingers over her mouth and also whispered. "Whoopsie you are right child, I'm sorry."

The nice reunion was interrupted as Nathanos carefully nudged passed and went "Rhea." with a nod, to which Rhea simply uttered." Natty." With the name nod.

As Nathanos sat down in the booth next to the pink haired girl, Kathrine, who had up till now tunnel visioned on her darling daughter, spotted the aforementioned friend the manager spoke of.

"Who is your friend sweetheart?" Kathrine asked with a heart-warming smile.

Willow was 5ft 4 and was also stunning. She looked to be in her early twenties. She had narrow light brown eyes with a cool, slightly pale tan skin tone. She had a round face with soft arch eyebrows, a small nose, a full lips which had a glossy pink lipstick applied that matched her pink, side parted bob hair.

Unlike Rhea, Willow had decided to dress more modestly with a pink dress with long sleeves that covered her body down to her knee. The dress clung more loose, but the fine form Willow had could not be hidden entirely by the dress. She also wore a silver necklace around her neck and small hooped earrings.

"Ah where are my manners! Mom, this is my very good friend and one of the members of my unit. Willow Koeda." Rhea introduced. "A pleasure to meet you Willow, any friend of my Rhea is a daughter of mine." Kathrine said as she went to shake her hand.

Willow however seemed preoccupied. Her eyes were staring at something. Kathrine followed her eyeline after not getting a reaction and smiled teasingly. "Oh have you found Arcon Apollo a treat for the eyes dear? I can hardly blame you."

Those words seemed to pull Willow out of her trance and as she realised she had been staring at me, she began to panic and flurried out her words. "What? No, I. I was not staring like that! Dont get me wrong you are very pretty, but I was staring at your hair! Please believe me I did not mean to cause offence, let me start over.

HI~!"

As Willow waved her hand awkwardly, the three Hyllus's stared at each other. "Oh my days" Nathanos said as he shuffled slightly away. "What just happened?" Kathrine followed, bewildered by the assault of words. "Sweetie, did your mind finally break?" Rhea asked her friend.

It was then I finally spoke. "You are Psionically talented right?" My voice caused everyone to turn towards me. As Rhea did she thought. 'Whoa! How did I miss him?' Willow simply nodded her head, totally embarrassed. "So thats your normal hair and not dyed then?" She nodded once more.

"So you were just wondering if my hair was the same as your case as you probably have never met another Psionic wielder with changed hair."

Willows eyes went wide with surprise. "How did you know?" She asked. "Because I was thinking the same thing when I saw you. Apollo a pleasure to meet you." I say as I move towards the table to shake her hand.

As she stood up slightly to meet my hand, it was intercepted by another. "Apollo is it? Curious. My brother messaged me saying an Arcon was with my mother, He did not mention he was so young looking. Tell me, how old are you really?" She said as she applied a large amount of pressure to my hand.

'Oh, she trains much more than her mother. She's very strong.' I think casually before replying. "This body of mine is 18, nearly 19." I say with a smile on my face. Rhea was genuinely surprised. Firstly, the man was telling the truth, which shocked her as she assumed the man was much older considering her mother hired him for a mission.

Secondly, the grip she was inflicting should have caused a normal man to wince in pain by now. She picked this up a few years ago to let the men she met know neither she nor the women around her are to be messed with.

"Oh is that so? Wow to be so handsome and strong at such a young age, what's your secret?" She asked playfully as she continually increased pressure. It was at this point Kathrine realised what her daughter was doing and decided to help. "Sweetie, Apollo here can take my full grip strength, you really need to try hard if you want to make a good impression."

Rhea looked at her mother with a great deal of surprise and then looked back at Apollo who was smiling very politely as if he had no problem with what she was doing. Rhea took the smile and was both impressed by it and took it as a challenge to wipe off. As she continued to apply pressure, she heard from behind her.

"Rhea stop. Its embarrassing when you do this." Willow said in a tone that implied this was not the first time Rhea had done this. It had become standard when either someone was flirting with her friend, or when she found someone attractive and wanted to see if they were cut with the stuff she was after.

Rhea ignored her friend and continued to strengthen her grip. Kathrine sat down at this point and began looking over the menu. After a few seconds Kathrine asked me. "Apollo is there anything in particular you want to eat this evening?" I look over as I felt the increasing pressure on my hand. "Urm...

No nothing in particular, you decide what you want and I will have the same." I said, not wanting to accidentally order something gross by mistake.

Kathrine nodded her head then turned to Nathanos as she made him share the same menu as her and helped him pick out his meal like a kid as she talked down the entire menu, reading it all.

Just as Rhea had picked up the pressure to the point she had begun to use around 80% of her max I said with respect. "Oh wow that hurts, you really are strong. I bet you could rip a person in half with those dainty hands of yours."

With my comment, Rhea blew air out of her nose in amusement before pulling away. She leaned close and whispered with a smile. "I have." Before ushering me to take a seat.
