Chapter 83
“We wouldn’t call on someone so young to be an anchor. We would use your parents or older blood relative to call blood to blood.” rock replied in an annoyed to even have to explain this to someone. I feel my whole heart body and hope die in that one sentence. I will never see my family again. “well than just a way to lock Janet in the lake for all time. The only blood relative I have in my time is my baby brother who is only seven at the time it needs to or want to return to.” my shoulders drop as I look for a seat to sit in. The looks of confusion on everyone’s faces make me want to laugh through the tears I feel forming. I will never see my family again. Lost in my world trying to remember the last time we had all been together.
Nova had woken in a terrible mood. Her almost white hair sticks in every direction as she storms down the stairs. My baby brother was already in the kitchen getting her a morning snack before breakfast. I don’t know where this came from but one day they started doing this. They would make a small snack and camp in front of the TV and wait for dad to come down and make breakfast. I had taken a late-night patrol the night before so I was sitting on the counter as my fathers were still in bed. Watching my little brother make pop tarts orange juice and sliced fruit for them to watch cartoons until my dad came down. He also left a note for dad when he came into the kitchen.
Dad
Nova didn’t sleep well with bad dreams can you make sprinkled princess pancakes for us?
He had just learned he can leave notes instead of just barging into their room to tell them what he wanted. That caused a very funny conversation I got to witness. My dads don’t believe in locking their door. They wanted us to know they are always available for us. The downside is in the morning you don’t always remember having pups or a locked door. So my brother got the sex talk early. Which then started a whole new talk about how dad and father can not make a baby in the other. So not only did he get the birds and the bees he got the bees and bees talk. The disappointment over our fathers not being able to make a baby in the other was the funniest part to me. One Jordan does not like babies. The only baby he liked was you guessed it nova. He hates the sound of a baby crying he calls it the annoying alarm.
Then the realization I won't have pups breaks me. The tears I had been holding back now rivers down my cheek as my world clasped around me. Lost in my grief I didn’t hear or see what was going on around me. The feeling of sparks wrapping around me as Rhett pulls me to him on the floor. “hush little wolf what has you so broken.” he whispers in my ear. Linking him as I don’t want the rest to hear my brokenness. “first my only blood relative in my time is my baby brother who is seven so getting the blood to blood spell to work won't happen I won't let my brother be hurt. So with that, I won't see my family again. And then there is the fact to have pups I have to have both my mates wolves can't have a pup if they have two mates but are only mated to one. Chad is in the future and we are in the past.” feeling myself melt into him lost in my heartbreak.
“didn't you say you know Kalaban in the future? And that the prince has a daughter? Are they not blood-related if you are the daughter of the fae king's daughter? Would they not be just as much blood to you as your brother? And you are carrying my offspring now I can smell the change in you already. Dragons are different and being mated to a dragon means you follow their reproductive system due to our numbers and always having two mates. Do you know why we have two and we only need one to have offspring?” he links back to me shock running through me. The blood bond between Sharon and Kalaban was so new to me that I had forgotten. It was like cold water thrown on me when he told me he could smell the pup in me. I know I will have to take his word on a lot of things where dragons are concerned so this is new. And I don’t know why dragons have two mates. I know we have two because well times it takes three to create the perfect one. Shaking my head as I look at him he links back. “because we don’t always find out mate. So we are given two to increase our chances to have offspring. Yes, my father was lucky to find both of his. But not all dragons find both. We don’t have a second chance we just have the two. But as long as you mated and marked to one of your mates then you can have offspring. Also, not all mates are like my father who has two females. But there is always one female in there is an offspring. Sadly not all find their female and that's why there are so few of us. But also why you will still have offspring even without our other mate.”
My hands had moved to my stomach as he talked. Listening to him as hope started to bloom. Rhett's tiny sister came over to join the hug. “so are we all better now 'cause I think I have ideas for our problems maybe a little. Are you hungry or thirsty ill get you something don’t move.” spinning the tiny woman goes into a frenzy ordering others about.
“what is she doing?” I ask Rhett. “she just realized she might not get to see her niece or nephew so she's gonna make sure you leave here with stories of how she made sure or offspring started with the best aunt.
“I love her”
