Chapter 593
Jonathan yawned in my arms and stretched, laying his head against my shoulder. “He couldn’t go with me,” I said sadly watching my boy, neither could Hannah or Kennedy.
My children would be alien monsters on Earth. They didn’t look human and could never pass for it. I thought of the movie, “Starman”, where the government had hunted down and killed the first ambassador from another civilization. My children could not even claim diplomatic immunity. They’d be poked and prodded and kept in cages. Their freedom would be much more Limited than mine was here.
Damien and his Brothers obviously couldn’t go either, they would be treated as foreign invaders. If I left, I did so without my family.
“Think on it, Rachel,” Tosu said softly.
“One day you will be given the option.”
Clattering talons announced Dinah had come to help Tosu move me and the two little ones down the incline. I composed my features and allowed myself to be lifted and moved down.
Once we were on the ground Jonathan was curious again. He only got to come out here when Evan showed him the moons. He scrambled out of my arms and walked with us, exploring everything.
The women did not Let me walk unescorted to the quarters I shared with my friends and family. Tosu and Dinah walked us all to the cave entrance.

“We will come for you tomorrow,” Tosu advised me, “after the little ones have fed after moon set move them out into the room with the pool. We will come for you all after that.”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Tosu handed me Aiden and I carried him into the large outer room. Jonathan gripped my skirt and walked beside us. He babbled amicably to Aiden until he saw the pool.
“Mama, ‘wim!” he demanded loudly pulling insistently on my outfit.
My men must have heard him and came out to greet us. They stood still when they saw I carried another Little boy.
“Baby, it’s late and Aiden is tired. Come and have an evening meal. We will swim later,” I coaxed.
Jonathan threw a tantrum and sat down on the floor. He screamed and his stripes became dark and prominent. The upset seemed to spur the same emotion in his Brother. The little boy I held started to fuss and wiggle, suddenly finding the energy.
Damien took control when it became apparent what was happening. “Enough, young ones,” he said firmly, “we will eat our meal and then you may play in the water.”
The firm male voice soothed both boys and they looked up at the older man expectantly.
Evan followed Damien and picked up a disgruntled Jonathan.
“Evidently,” he said quietly, “you have much to tell us, Sister.”
I was so glad that Jonathan could eat some solid food. He nursed a bit, but was satisfied easily with mashed up things from our plates and messy sips from his Daddy’s cup. Aiden had obviously never eaten solid food and he nursed me dry.
My family was enthralled as I told them about the process of finding Brothers and Halil’s death. None of them really remembered finding one another. They had foggy memories of the time before they were together. but their first solid memories were at the Child Keepers.
“It has always been just us, together,” Bane said patting Kein’s back.
“I do not remember a time when you were not with me.”
