Alex sat down on the edge of the tub, and put a hand on her shoulder.
"Can you get me something to eat" she said. "I'm starving"
Alex left to get her something from the kitchen and she lowered her self deeper into the water. She closed her eyes for a moment and relaxed, her legs crossed at the ankles to form a diamond around the eggs. She drifted into exhausted sleep but woke when the creatures began to hatch.
She dozed hazily as the worms began to writhe around her weary body. Their silky flesh glided over her skin. Lena coed, as her children filled her with an odd maternal pride.
Alex reentered, holding a plate, but he dropped it as he saw the brood squirming over their mother. The plate shattered when it hit the floor, startling Lena.
"We have to stop this." Alex said; "They are way out of hand."
A look of concern cast itself over Lena's face. She stared at Alex, scanning his shocked expression.
Alex went on: "We need to get rid of them"
Lena thought for a moment and then felt tears pooling.
"Ok" She squeaked before she started crying.
Alex sat on the tub again, trying to console the crying teen. He turned to face her and hold her head to his chest. She wept as he bent his head down. She looked up and looked him in the eyes and in a sudden flash lena's hand swept around and smacked into the side of his head. Alex reeled backward trying to parse the strange sensations. He stumbled back into the door, shakily raising an arm to the impact site. He went cold as his hand met the worm.
Lena must have palmed one of them, before slamming into his ear. Pain began to wrack him as the thing **** it's way into his skull. The slime's aphrodisiac began to hit him, and his body grew heavier, and he slumped against the door. Lena stood, revealing her betrayal. Alex's eyes lazily tried to focus on her. The girl stood proudly, glistening with the dripping bathwater, and crawling with a dozen wriggling worms. She smiled wickedly as she stalked toward Alex. He began to shudder as the worm worked it's way deeper filling his ear.
"We, are not getting rid of them." Lena said wrathfully, "These are my brood, and I am their Queen!" She was yelling now, as she loomed over his helpless body. "The thing is, lover... I don't need a King."
