Zerena's P.O.V.
Lord have mercy, my body won't stop. The shivers, goosebumps and pleasure just keep rolling through me. My center is damn tender and sensitive right now that the lightest graze has me trembling. Damn that Topher with his talented tongue and fingers.
Ember's words of advice still rang in my head, and I knew that I would have to talk with Kiran and Topher to figure this out, but for now I'll enjoy this moment with him. A moment in euphoric bliss, that has me worn the fu.ck out.
I felt myself falling against his chest, still fully naked and tender. Dear Jesus, do his hands and touches feel like euphoria itself. I was so focused on him that everything else had cleared from my mind. I began to relax further into him, until I was pulled into a deep darkness. An image of a la
3 months have passed already, with no headway on the Isaac or Alester problems. On a more positive note, Kiran and Topher have been getting along great. They don't mind sharing a room or bed, as long as I'm in the middle. They each get their night where we could spend one on one time. Somehow Topher and I have managed to not have full on sex, getting away with oral stuff. I swear I'm going to choke and die on his d*ck one day. The thing is massive.Ares and Augustus have been growing well. I've swollen quite a lot, making it hard to fight or train with my body. I've been using my shadows, but not too much. I don't want to hurt Ares by accident. I pull Percy here to visit at times, but I mainly see him every morning. Sometimes I stay and visit with Mom or dad and other times I stay to visit Ember and her family. She's become a good friend.
Time passes by so damn slow in the hospital. I've been here a week already and it feels like it's been one year. I'm being dramatic but it's so boring here. Percy comes and goes with Topher. Kiran stays by my side for the most part. He does go to work at times or train. He gets a bit stir crazy too.He spends time with Auggie, any chance he gets though. I've decided I like Gabriel's nickname for Augustus, and so I've stolen it. He's finally staying in Kiran's arms without shadow weaving immediately. Kiran's so happy now. Ares is doing well too. The steroid shots helped Ares to develop stronger. They should release me later today. I just have to wait till then.I was watching Auggie stir in his little crib. When he didn't get what he wanted, he traveled to me. He almost missed the bed, but I caught him with a shadow. I don
Percy's P.O.V.This is it. I've waited months for this moment. I was worried I'd be waiting years for this. Finally our paths have crossed, allowing me to save my parents. I know Zae wishes she could be here, but it's probably best that she's not. I don't like to think of her fighting while being that far along.I know Zae is Zae, and more than capable of doing it, but I'd rather she didn't. So secretly, I'm very happy that she can't come. Thankfully she'll help in another, safer, way. Topher gave me reign over this job, but it's really Zae that will be running things from the shadows, quite literally."Okay, so when we get there we are going to split up. We're looking for my parents and the ringleader of the carnival. Let us know if you see any of them." I sat down the portraits of m
Zerena's P.O.V."Listen here as.shole, we're going to ask you some questions and you better damn well answer them, or I'm going to stick shadows in areas you don't want shadows to be. They'll be nice and prickly too." I immediately threatened the ringleader, bypassing the pleasantries of meeting Percy's mate and parents.I need to look scary and mean at the moment, even with my large ass baby bump making me look soft. I want this guy to tremble before me, so he feels compelled to answer."Kiran, my love, watch Auggie for me. I'm taking this one to the basement." I told Kiran, not wanting to defile the nursery with torture. "Topher, let's go."He whisked her to the basement, all of us for some reason. I was thinkin
"These three employed the ringleader of Ness Carnival show to hire demons for them. They had demons kill each original family, staging it so that it looked like they were killed by other species." I finally told them, pointing an accusing finger at the trio. There were gasps and murmurs."This is all fabricated lies. She has always hated the way we run things here since she learned about us. She wasn't even raised as a shadow weaver. She just got the taste for being a Watts and now wants to be the only one. Her pregnancy hormones must be making her delus
The elders scolded me for calling a meeting like that. They understood it, but warned me to never do it again. They moved a member from the west elders to the North, allowing Sebastian to return to the West. They then had an Elder from the East move up to become the senior Elder of the North.I didn't bud into any of that. We probably have a civil war starting against the elders soon. I don't like how they do things. At least some of them. This place needs changing for sure!I'd brought my parents back to their home along with Zola. We were hugging happily, the second I pulled out of their embrace, Auggie appeared in my arms."Dammit, where'd he go now?" I heard Kiran looking around, almost making me want to laugh.
Alester's P.O.V.This new crew is useless as a unit. I'd been working them hard the last couple of months, but they were worse than the 5 year old versions of my old crew. There is no replicating years worth of teamwork, no matter how many experiments and enhancements I put in them. At least they'll serve as a way to weaken the others before I attack.If I did my math correctly and assuming that shadow weavers have a pregnancy span of about 5-6 months she'll be due around late September or early October. I'll attack around. Halloween, when the demon plane is stronger. I'll need the extra boost to beat the five of them together."I think we'll need to enhance your muscles again." I told the older, larger boy. I haven't bothered remembering their names. They won't be around long enough
Kiran's P.O.V.Auggie was a month old now and Zerena told me it was time for him to make his contract with the shadows. She'd apparently kept that information from me when we discovered the hidden room. Her parents, her, Topher, myself and Auggie were staring at the book in the hidden room. We had closed the hidden entrance, needing it dark for this process.Shay took the book out of the glass case, holding it in front of Auggie. The book flipped pages on its own until it reached one with a crescent shape in the center."That shall be his page. You need to prick his foot and use his blood to draw the same symbol mirrored in front of it. The shadow that chooses will merge the symbol and the blood to seal the contract." Shay explained to us.
