Turns out, mom cast a spell on herself to forget everything. She knew that if the Measure caught her, they’d get the info they needed from her to find me. She wiped her own mind to protect me. Her mind is still fragmented, but Dagney has a powerful witch working to reverse whatever mom did.
Sometimes mom recognizes my voice and understands that the adult talking to her is her daughter Menelya. Sometimes she’s confused. Sometimes it’s just Jag who growls and paws at the screen. I’m good with whatever I get.
A white blinding light flashes, and Hephaestus appears before us with a crooked smile on his scarred face. I let go of my males.
“You came.”
He lifts me into his arms gently. He presses a kiss to my head and whispers tenderly. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world, little love.”
I force back my tears as he carries me towards the birthing room. Alexei and Ryzier hover with worried looks on their faces as Hephaestus limps along with me. He’d never drop me, but they don’t know that. I nuzzle his face and press a kiss to his cheek as another contraction begins.
This is a bad one and I forget to breathe. Instead, I cry out and tighten up. Hephaestus turns his lips to mine and gently blows against my face. I inhale deeply and the pain eases just enough that I’m able to breathe through my contraction.
Hephaestus will be at all my births from here on out. That god of the forge is fantastic with childbirth. Calm, reassuring and steady. Add the breath trick to the mix and he’s a keeper!
Alexei is better than Ryzier, who is a basket case. He confesses that he passed out when Morgan gave birth to Rainariel as he pales and sways precariously. I’m pretty impressed that Alexei caught the dad to be and settled him in a chair with his head between his legs before returning to my side. Progress. Slow, but I still see it as progress between the two.
In the end, I have two identical twin boys with their father’s shockingly white blonde hair. No horns, wings or forked tongues yet, but who knows what they will transition into later on in life.
Now it’s obvious that I am the one who carries the twin gene. I wonder where I got it from and if I have a twin out there somewhere wondering who he or she came from. It’s another one of those mysteries that I may never solve.
For now, I smile as my males welcome my sons into our unique but happy family. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Ryzier smile so broadly. Alexei claps him on the back gently, like he was the one who just gave birth to twins. Well, at least they are getting along for now.
CHAPTER FORTY
The Taste of Fae
The beauty of the dark realm never ceases to captivate me. The glowing flora. The cold of the night air. The snow crunching under my boots and the way it glows under the moons. I tuck Surge closer into the warmth of my arms and glance at Rip, who’s secure in his father’s arms. Ryzier smiles down at me tolerantly.
Turns out that Ryzier is an amazing father. I’m actually surprised he’s even allowing me to hold Surge. Alexei is to my right, holding tightly to Leila, and Inara’s hands. My gaze goes to the clear night sky.
Alexei growls. “I can’t believe you insist on doing this.”
I reach down and stroke Inara’s hair. “I have to do this.”
Alexei sighs. “It’s a huge risk, Nevaeh.”
I smile down at Inara as I answer. “No. We’re safe.”
Alexei huffs. “Last time you saw him, you abandoned him. He has no loyalty to you anymore.”
I glance at Ryzier as he takes Surge from me. He and I had this same conversation, and he’s being uncharacteristically quiet. I watch a muscle in his jaw tick. He’s nervous too.
A dark shadow passes over us. The gargoyle I left in this realm over a year ago lands in front of us. I step forward. He steps backward, and a low growl rumbles. Both males beside me unleash their power. The rumbling continues as I continue my advance.
“Mason…”
He halts his retreat but doesn’t halt the warning growl. His glowing red eyes lift skyward, and a huge female dragon flies over with a cry.
Those eyes return to me. I smile. “I’m glad to see you and Luna are still together.”
The rumbling lessens. Mason takes a step forward, and the bright light of his shift has us all turning away. When I turn back to him, Ryzier quickly clothes him in a large kilt. I smirk as Mason’s eyes widen with shocked surprise. My sex demon is very aware of nudity around my young girls.
I close the distance between us and throw myself into his arms. “I’ve missed you so much, Mason.”
He turns his lips to my head and asks dejectedly. “Why did you leave me?”
I pulled back and gave him a tight smile. “Because your work was done. You couldn’t protect me where I went, and I didn’t want to see you hurt.”
He nodded once and turned away.
“Hey.”
He froze. “I loved you enough to let you go. You deserved a life of your own, Mason.”
He turned back and met my gaze. Then his gaze slid to the males behind me. He nodded at Alexei and then smiled at Inara and Leila. The smile left his face when he looked at Ryzier.
“You… You… came to show me your babies?” His voice broke as his golden gaze returned to me.
I smiled as Ryzier and Alexei stepped forward. “Long ago you said you loved it when I brought Leila and Inara to show them to you.”
I turned and took Rip out of Ryzier’s arm. “This is Rip, and that one is Surge.”
Mason’s face softened as he looked down at my infants. “Sons.”
I stepped forward and put Rip in Mason’s huge arms. He cradled him like he was holding the most precious and fragile thing ever. He made a chuffing sound at Rip as the baby stared up at him with wide eyes.
Ryzier came forward and showed Mason Surge. He cooed and chuffed to the babies. Both boys were unafraid, but then they didn’t fear much. They took after their father in looks and attitude.
Mason’s gaze rose from the babies. His face was full of wonder. “You honor me.”
I smiled up at Mason. “You honored me once. Just because I no longer need your protection, doesn’t mean we aren’t still friends.”
He thought about this for a moment. Then his face broke into a huge grin. “Friends.”
He pulled me against him with his other arm and added. “Friends for life, Nevaeh.”
I kissed his cheek as he gazed at Rip. “Always.”
He turned his lips to mine and pressed them to me. “Always.”
That night started a tradition in my family that grew into legend. I suspect that it was Alexei who started the gossip. I became known as the vampire queen who was protected by gargoyles.
A powerful female who’d seduced her mortal enemy. A creature created by the gods to wipe out vampires. A race of killers so brutal in their hunts that they almost succeeded.
During my fertile years, I presented all my children to Mason. He reveled in playing with them as they grew up. He couldn’t have his own children, but he sure took joy in mine. My royal offspring were blessed by the gargoyle and revered by their brethren as powerful vampires.
It took a while, but I got both my mates in bed with me. Ryzier can still be a prickly demon, but he and Alexei have formed a deep bond. It can be tricky managing a triad, but I feel we’ve done a fine job. I never added anyone else to my harem.
I stuck with breeding Ryzier and Alexei. The race was doing well with its own pairings so we didn’t need to worry about inbreeding. In the end Ryzier had 9 children, and Alexei gave me five sets of twins. Just dealing with my two males and their get kept me busy for two hundred years, but I didn’t lose my dream of equality for the females of our race.
More and more females were born and lived through their transition. Given the freedom of choice, the offspring being born today are stronger than any we’ve ever seen before.
Deep bonds have developed between the females and their clutches. It’s still not perfect. We still have isolated cases we have to deal with. Dis
putes between clutches still happen, but our justice system seems to work so far.
The females advanced our race, became clutch leaders, doctors, judges and scientist. We have lawyers who protect the race’s assets in the human realm. Our females became politicians, important members of our court, business owners. We even have one ancient female who opened a resort that catered to both vampires and wealthy kinky humans in the Florida Keys thats called Monster Island Resort.
We’re still monsters, we just treat each other better now than we did in the past. I guess no race is perfect. Predators are still predators, we still need to eat and we still love the taste of fae.
