Paris's POV:
"I don't feel too good, Richard," I whispered to him as I sat up on him and grabbed my stomach- rubbing the sore bump and felt a kick against my hand from the other side- one of the babies was kicking me. I grabbed the back of the couch and moved off him slowly- giving a slight groan.
"Paris, I thought I told you not to move around so much," Rose whined out as she rushed over to me. "You're not even supposed to be laying so uncomfortably. Maybe we need to put you on bed rest. You're seven months to this day."
"I don't need bed rest!" I growled out sharply.
"Richard, tell your mate she's going on bed rest- he'll listen to you," she told him. "She's going to end up breaking something moving around so much."
"I will not," I grumbled and rubbed my stomach. "I think I'm just hungry." I looked around then for Louis, longing for his touch. "Where's Louis?"
"He's outside playing in the snow with his mutt," she told me.
"Mutt," Richard muttered, echoing the word before he looked towards me and helped me move into a more comfortable position. "Paris, don't push yourself, okay?" He whispered and then kissed my cheek. "I don't want you getting hurt... or the baby...." He started to purr and kissed my tummy. "Daddy loves you so much~" He laughed and then looked up into my eyes. "I can't wait! You're getting so big~"
"I know, I think it's almost time," I whispered to him and giggled. I wrapped my arms around him and gave him a kiss on his lips. "Can you go get my brother?" I asked him softly.
"Of course," he purred lovingly to me and kissed me as he moved away. "I'll fetch that rascal of a brother." He whistled as he walked off to the front of the house. He came back in a few minutes with Louis groaning about being pulled back inside as he gripped his werewolf's hand tightly.
"Paris, couldn't it have wait?" He asked and frowned at me. "I was playing fetch!" Richard snickered and walked over to me, sitting beside me as he put his hand on my knee and rested it there.
"Your twin called. Of course, it couldn't wait~" He told Louis and smirked, watching as Louis's eyebrow twitched.
"Louis," I whined out playfully to him and reached for him. "Come hold me," I begged. "I missed you." He frowned and walked over, getting behind the back of the couch and wrapped his arms around my neck from behind.
"I was in here an hour ago! You couldn't have missed me in an hour...." His werewolf watched us with a frown and gave me an agitated look as he whined and looked back at Louis longingly. I purred and looked up at him.
"Well I did miss you~" I grabbed his arms and gave him a loving look. I looked back down over at Richard and gave him a small smile. "Richard, can you go hunt and get me a human?" I asked softly. I heard the door get thrown open then.
"SORRY~! I didn't realize what day it was until I got home and thought.... Hmmmm I wonder what day it is," I heard Laurence's voice ring off the walls. "You're getting close to your date Paris~ Sorry I'm a little late on arriving. I had to go to a cave and give a big baby some attention. His name is Mayloi by the way." Richard frowned and rubbed my head.
"Well at least Laurence is back," he told me softly and got to his feet. Louis frowned like he knew that name before I saw a flash of when he had gone to Laurence's castle in the aftermath of Laurence losing his dragons and when he met everyone that Laurence and I were friends with. He looked down at me and tilted his head.
"Mayloi? Was that one of his dragons?" He asked curiously.
"Yes," I whispered softly to him.
"I think I'll go with you Richard on your hunt. I could use some blood and for all of us you're going to need the extra help," Laurence told him as he walked up to me and gave me a hug. "You better not have your babies before I can deliver them," he scolded me. I laughed a little and nodded as he pulled back and looked at Louis. "Well, Well, Well..." He crawled over the couch and gave Louis a hug. "Three Grimm children under the same roof..." He looked at Rose then and his eyes lit up before he ran up to her side and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Love to stay and chat but I'm off on a hunt already," he told her in amusement.
"Oh? What's there to talk about?" She asked him playfully.
"That cave," Louis said as he watched him curiously. Richard smirked and grabbed Laurence, snatching him into his arms.
"Well I get to keep him for the next few hours~ See ya!" He laughed and went towards the door as he squeezed Laurence in his arms with a pleased look. LAURENCE! IT'S BEEN SO LONG! FINALLY I GET TO SEE HIM! Laurence purred and gave Richard a hug before taking him outside quickly.
"That was quick," Rose whispered, watching them in surprise. I looked up at Louis before I tugged on his arm.
"Sit with me," I begged him again. "Hold me." He looked at me then purred as he climbed over the couch and took Richard's old spot, making me lean up against him as he put his arms around me and kissed my cheek.
"Fine you big colossal," he murmured playfully into my ear then rubbed my tummy. "Now why did you have to go be a mother again? I miss you being male." He lightly poked my tummy and tsked playfully. "Hurry up in there~ I've got to turn your mother back before he gets used to being a girl forever~! I can't have a female twin." I giggled as I felt another kick. I placed his hand down on my stomach as another kick happened.
"I did it for this," I whispered to Louis and purred. "I want to have babies." He purred as he felt it then kissed my cheek.
"Weirdo... who would want things kicking them from the inside out," he asked and then nuzzled his head into my neck. My twin would.... I love him so much. He means so much to me.... Besides my pet, he's all I have left.... I purred to Louis and exposed my neck a little to him.
"I love him," I whispered softly to Louis. "I haven't met him, but I love him already," I told him softly. "It doesn't matter if he's kicking me.... He's just letting me know he's alive and ready to play. He's excited to meet this world and to meet his daddy and his uncles and auntie."
"We'll have to find Vlad to show him his nephew," Rose said thoughtfully. I nodded in agreement before I rubbed my tummy again.
"I think there's twins," I whispered to Louis. "But Richard doesn't believe me."
"Hm? Twins?" He touched my tummy and tried to concentrate before he shifted me and laid his head on top of my stomach, listening before he started to laugh with a cheerful look. "I hear two stones," he whispered then kissed my tummy. "Richard can go suck an egg. It's twins~" I purred in delight and ran my fingers through his hair.
"I thought so.... I think he was just hoping there wouldn't be extra for my first time..." I trailed off and smiled. "Extra just means more to love." I ran my fingers down to his chin and rubbed it. "Right?" He purred and kissed my hand quickly.
"Of course... just don't throw one of them out," he teased me and winked.
"Never! I'm going to raise them together. I don't want them to ever be separated unless they want a break from each other... then I'll send one to you for a weekend." He looked at my tummy in consideration before he smirked.
"I wouldn't mind raising one," he told me then kissed my tummy. "Who wants to live on my side of the manor?"
"You're not stealing one from me! You'll only get one every now and then." I laughed softly and purred as I felt movement in me. I gave a small groan and rubbed my stomach. He tensed and looked at my stomach before he gently kissed my tummy again.
"Hey, don't cause trouble for my twin," he warned. "One day one of you will have karma so bad that you'll wind up pregnant and have babies kicking you from the inside out."
"Don't say that... they can't help it," I told him. "They're getting big and I can't get bigger for them." He frowned and kissed my stomach then.
"Don't get bigger in my poor twin. He's only so skinny," he said and tapped my stomach. "Now stop before you make him as big as a hot air balloon."
"One day you'll have a baby," I whispered to Louis. "Then you'll know that it's not their fault for anything."
"It's so much fun to tease them now though~ They can't whine and start to cry at me for it," he told me and smirked. "Besides, I'm not carrying the baby in my relationship if I ever get a pureblood in my life. She can carry it." I puffed out my cheeks a little.
"You're going to eat those words one day," I warned him.
"No, I won't," he said and smirked. "Besides, I'm not interested in having children myself. I'll watch you have as many as you want, but I don't want one myself yet. Maybe hundreds of centuries later, but by then, we'll both be so old we might not care about kids."
"That's unfair Louis! I want nephews.... I'll make you have some later," I told him sweetly.
"I have to have a lover who can mate with me and produce babies," he said and smirked. "I don't have one that could do that~" Especially because I'm not changing genders for Michael. He looked back at his pet and purred at him, making him blush and rub at his cheek as he looked away.
"Michael is mortal... He'll die and you'll have another mate come along that can give you babies," I told him. "Then I'll make you give me a nephew." He frowned at me then.
"Don't talk about Mikey that way," he said and then looked at Michael. "Don't listen to my twin~ Why don't you go get some cake?" Michael chuckled and walked off then.
"Alright~" My twin looked at me then kissed my cheek.
"You're not making me have babies," he told me and laughed. "The only way I would do that is if I winded up with a female pureblood."
"You're being cruel," I whispered to him. "You should open your mind up for me and give me nephews when you get the chance." He chuckled then and rubbed my stomach.
"I'll think about it," he whispered. "No promises, but I'll think about it." He kissed my neck then before he moaned and scraped his fangs against me. I gasped and pushed him away.
"Don't," I warned him. "Not while I'm with babies." He groaned and looked me in the eyes before he frowned.
"But Paris... it's been forever since I've been able to drink from you! Damn Richard," he muttered and growled. "He just had to steal you away from me and get you pregnant."
"I want to be pregnant," I told him sharply. "It hasn't been forever. It'll only last a few more weeks." He sighed.
"You're only seven months. It takes nine," he said and hid his face into my shoulder. "I miss you being male...."
"I know," I purred out to him and leaned in- giving his cheek a kiss. "Help me to my bed," I purred to him before I got up slowly. He followed me quickly then smirked, picking me up bridal style into his arms.
"Of course, milady," he teased me and winked as he carried me out of the room and down the hall. I purred into his ear and held onto him tightly to make sure I wouldn't fall. He smirked and got me into my room then laid me down gently on the bed and covered me up, and then he grabbed Richard's pillow and slipped it into my arms so I could smell him. "There~ I'll tell him where you are when he gets back, okay? Rose and I are going to go make sure that everything is in place for an emergency birthing in case you have it anytime soon." I nodded and purred to him before I closed my eyes and leaned into the pillow- smelling it.
"Okay," I whispered to him. "You can go back out there and enjoy your mate and time with our sister."
"He's not my mate. He's better than a mate," he told me and smirked. "I've never met my true mate."
"Well you did claim him as your sleeping partner, so you are mating with him and therefore... he's your mate." He purred and crawled into bed with me then kissed my cheek.
"Okay... but he's not my true soul mate that fate set out for me," he told me and purred. "Honestly, I'd rather have him than my soul mate. I love him to pieces~ He's so sweet to me, and I love the way his face lights up when I kiss him and how he wags his tail at me in his wolf form and barks at me happily when he sees me coming his way~ I love everything about him~" I purred as I watched him.
"I hope you get a mate in your future though," I whispered to him.
"Maybe if he's been dead for a very long time," he whispered and hid his face against me. "I don't want my mate to come while he's here. I won't let my mate take his place in my life...."
"Let's hope fate is kind to you," I whispered to him. I closed my eyes then, wanting to take a nap. "Sleep with me?" I asked him softly. He nodded and snuggled up against my side, purring to me as we started to doze off together.
~~~
"Here we are," I heard my mom purring to me. "Right this way Paris," I followed my parents into a piano room where the Dracula family was sitting but without Vlad. Richard! I blushed as I walked in and sat down across from them on the couch with my parents. What am I doing here again? Richard sunk into his seat as he crossed his arms and frowned.
"Father," he grumbled and then got to his feet, going for the piano quickly but yelped as his father grabbed him by the arm and yanked him back down beside him.
"Behave! This is for your own good, Richardo. You'll accept this arrangement for the good of yourself and for the family," he purred out and looked towards my father and gave him a happy look. "I see you brought your son~ We'll have to turn him into a female for my son before they get married. I'm hoping for lots of grandchildren out of my boy."
"W-wait what?" I asked quickly and widened my eyes.
"Paris," my mom hissed out. "Behave too."
"Yes, I thought before we continue further, I would get it done today," my father said and looked at me. "Once they're married, they'll have two strong kingdoms. I couldn't ask for anything else for my child." Dracula smirked then.
"Good, because being queen of all vampires is all he could ever get in this world," he said then rubbed Richardo's head, making him tsk before he shoved his father's hand away.
"Quit it," he muttered and then looked away with a frown. "I don't want an arranged marriage."
"Paris wants this, don't you sweetie?" My mother asked me and gave me a sharp look. Uh-oh... I better not say no...
"Of course," I whispered softly. My eyes lingered over Richard then. "I'd be honored." I looked at his father then. His father purred then and nodded.
"Then let's get the papers signed," he said and then leaned forward, picking up a few papers on the table in front of him and offered them to my father. "Read it over and sign your son over to mine to be married~ I'll make sure to give you your reward for betrothing him to mine." Richard tsked and looked them over before he looked at me, his eyes lingering on me before I saw him take in a sharp breath as he locked onto my eyes. Damn he's hot.... I blushed as I eyed him over. I totally heard him too! I watched my father leaning over the papers as he signed off on them- not even bothering to read. It was rude to read something like that anyways if it was handed to you by your king.
"There," my father purred out. "Paris, you're going to become a female." Richard tensed then looked towards my father before he cleared his throat.
"He doesn't need to become female," he said firmly, sitting up straighter. "I don't plan on having children for a few years. He can marry me as is."
"Nonsense," Dracula hissed at his son and frowned. "You're not marrying that boy as he is. You'll marry him once he's female. I'll not have a male-male marriage in my family."
"Besides, on your wedding night you'll give us grandbabies anyways as tradition," my mom told him. Richard frowned then.
"Do you have to consummate the marriage?" He asked and then tsked. "Fine, I can do that with him as is." I saw one of his corners curl up into a small smirk, sending a shiver through me as he gave my mother a playful look. His own mother's eyes widened, and she went to smack his hand quickly, but he yanked his hand out of her way and purred.
"No, you're not getting him like this," my father said quickly. "It's already been agreed to turn him female and frankly you don't have much of a say. Your father wants you married to a female and Paris will be female."
"How boring," Richard muttered and sighed as he crossed his legs. "I'm sure he would have loved it~ Now we'll have to worry about children...." He shook his head and then got to his feet but was yanked back down by his father.
"Behave," he hissed again. "Take this seriously. You're being betrothed, understand? You're going to spend the rest of eternity with this person at your side! Don't screw up his impression of you now." Richard yanked his arm away and tsked before he looked at me and exposed his fangs.
"If he has a problem with me, he knows where the door is."
"I do," I told him sharply. "I'm still here though even after you've embarrassed our moms bringing up male on male intercourse. If you have any brains, you better shut your lips because your father is looking extremely upset right now about your spoken words." I crossed my legs then. "I don't have to change myself for you, but I am going to. You should be thankful. You're getting France for your future territory." He frowned and looked at me before he rubbed his knee. I could care less about more territory.... I'd much rather just have him. I heard a small purr escape him then as his expression lightened at the thought. His father started to relax as he watched his son then leaned over to his wife and whispered to her, making her smile like she was pleased. I blushed as I watched him.
"Paris, let's turn you into a woman... I have a few dresses picked out for you," my mom told me as she stood up. "Marry, why don't you help me?" She asked Richard's mom. "It'll be exciting. I've never had a daughter before until now and neither have you." Marry laughed and got to her feet.
"Of course~ Come along, Paris~ We'll get you ready for my son. Maybe he'll have learned some manners by the time we return," she said and walked over, helping me to my feet. "You'll have to forgive him. He's been ranting about us trying to marry him off all day. He's afraid you might take him away from his piano. He loves to play~"
"W-well I want to learn to play so maybe we can bond over it," I said and looked at Richard and blushed. "Would you teach me after we're married?"
"I'll teach you right now if you'll permit me," he said and smirked, purring at me. "I wouldn't stop someone from learning~"
"Later today.... you two can after lunch," my father suggested.
"We have a servant waiting in his room," my mom told Marry as she grabbed my arm and started to pull me out the room. "We'll be back down for lunch, gentlemen." I just realized something... my dad just signed away my rights to be a male... didn't he?
"It was wonderful meeting you," I heard Richard purr out teasingly. "Have fun!" Marry tsked as she shut the door behind us.
"He'll be lucky if I don't sneak some sleeping herbs into his meal tonight," she said sharply then looked at my mother before she laughed. "I'm sorry about my son. He can be so coarse when he wants to be. He was probably trying to scare the three of you off that way he wouldn't have to go through with this. He's been worried about this all day."
"That's alright. Everyone is nervous about their arranged marriage... after the wedding the nervousness dies." My mom told her. "I remember when I first met my husband... I didn't know what to say, do, or act." She giggled then. "Your son will realize this is for the best though. Paris is a good person and will be the perfect match for Richardo." I blushed and ran my fingers through my hair. I don't want to be a female... but he was hot... I blushed and looked over my shoulder. Darn it! She giggled then.
"I hope so. My son is a little... thirstier than most. He eats so much blood. Maybe Paris could help him curb back on his diet and get him off the piano a little more," she whispered. "I hope he steals my son's heart away from him. He needs it badly."
"I think I saw a real connection back there," my mom giggled out. "Your son seemed interested... I can't wait for Paris to be a female and take his breath away."
"M-mom," I grumbled.
"Oh, won't that be romantic~? Richardo will fall head over heels for her and treat her like a goddess if Paris can do take his breath away~ I hope he falls so hard for her," Marry said and giggled then looked at me. "He's a sweetheart if he loves you enough!" I blushed and nodded to her... Yeah... He's got some pervy thoughts though.... I followed them to my bedroom I had at Dracula castle and inside when we reached it. A maid was waiting patiently on the bed. My mom shut the door after I walked in.
"Paris take off your shirt," she told me calmly. I frowned then but didn't question her as I took off my shirt slowly and sat it down on the bed.... Why is the maid here?
"What's the maid doing here?" I asked.
"Sit down," my mom told me. I slowly sat down and watched as she walked up to me. "Give Marry your hands to hold," she told me. I frowned before I held out my hands to Richard's mom. What's going on? Marry grabbed my hands quickly and gave me a reassuring squeeze, purring to me as she leaned in and kissed my cheek.
"No matter what, it's okay," she told me and rubbed my knuckles. "You'll have to trust your mother." Why is this starting to feel familiar? I gasped as I felt my mom's cold hands against my chest before she pushed in. I widened my eyes as I felt smothered by the cold touch before darkness surrounded me....
My eyes opened slowly, and I glanced around before my eyes lowered onto the new weight on my chest- I eyed over the floral pink rose dress I was in that showed off my- my- I have- I have.... boobs.... Whoa.... I eyed them over before I sat up slowly and ran my fingers through the white hair that fell around me. "Paris~ Let's go show your fiancé," my mom told me and giggled as she came into my view with Marry. "You're so beautiful as a girl." Marry giggled and then pulled me to my feet quickly.
"You're going to give me so many beautiful grandchildren~ Oh I'm so excited!" She squeezed my hand and looked at my mother then giggled, starting to pull me to the door. "Richardo is going to love you so much~! He's going to be so surprised about how wonderful you look! Being female suits you so much better than being a male!" I stumbled after her and straightened up quickly to try to be as proper as I could. I gasped quickly and looked down as I found it hard to breath. What the hell is hugging me so tightly!?
"Relax," my mom told me. "It's not like you need to breath anyways, Paris." I looked back at her and frowned. Richard should have become female- this sucks already!
"Oh, you look so wonderful~ I can't wait to pick out your wedding dress with you," Marry told me and squeezed my hand. "Your mother and I are going to have to help you plan the whole thing~"
"Nonsense, I have it all planned already," my mom said calmly. "You can look at the plans to approve. Then we'll have to get the men's approval on the date." Marry nodded and giggled.
"I can't wait~ You'll have to show me tomorrow while the men are busy," she said and looked my mother over happily. "We're going to be in-laws soon~"
"I'll make sure to show it off to you," my mom hummed out as she led me back to where we left the other three. As soon as we neared the room, I heard the most wonderful sounds- Richardo playing the piano except he was playing something... lighter than usual. Marry purred at the sound and slowly led us back in, being quiet about it as she held the door open for us to let us sneak in. I walked in slowly and sat back down next to my father. He eyed me over and smiled.
"Paris... we should have made you a girl a long time ago," he told me. I frowned and looked away from him quickly. I just got my birthright taken away from him to become a queen. He's in trouble for not talking with me about it. I saw Dracula smile as he saw Marry, and he stood up to help her sit then glanced over at Richardo as he played on the piano but suddenly switched songs, changing it to a darker, more fierce sound- our song. I blushed as I recognized it a little. My mom walked up and sat down before she looked at me.
"How about you go sit with him," she told me. I nodded a little and slowly made my way over to him before I sat down by him on the bench. He tensed and glanced over at me as he continued playing then looked back down at the piano. He smiled faintly before he chuckled under his breath and hit a cord that sent a shiver down my spine. He looked over at me suddenly and kissed my cheek. I blushed and tensed up beside him. Shouldn't he be giving me a ring or something? What happened to that? Was that the contract? He looked me in the eyes then smirked before he stopped playing then looked at his father.
"Father," he called out quickly, catching his attention. His father sighed and tossed him something shiny before Richard slipped a gold band onto my finger then kissed me lightly on the lips. "My future queen~" I blushed and eyed over the ring on my finger. It's so shiny... It's about time I got one too. But why is it gold? Shouldn't it be a diamond? He rubbed my cheek and brushed my hair over my ear. "You're so beautiful," he mumbled as he looked me over then purred as he leaned in and smelled me. "You smell heavenly too~" I leaned in and curiously smelled him before I moaned at his scent... He's my soul mate. He suddenly tackled me off the bench and bit in deep into my neck, a small moan rising up in him as he drank my blood then marked me quickly, lacing his fingers with mine as he grabbed my hands. I exposed my fangs and gave him a playful growl.
"Save it for when you're married," my dad yelled out at us. Richard dug his fangs in deeper and purred loudly as he squeezed my hands then chuckled against my neck, making his own father tsk.
"R-Richard," I whispered and pushed up on his chest. He growled a little but pulled his fangs out, licking his lips as he looked down at me then purred as he looked at my eyes with a happier look than before. His fingers rubbed up against the ring on my finger, making him chuckle as he kissed my cheek.
"What is it?" He murmured. "You don't like biting?"
"I'm a lady now," I told him softly. "Get off me. We're not married yet."
"Marry me now then," he purred teasingly.
"Ask our parents first," I told him softly. He smirked and sat up on me.
"Why? They're not going to be king and queen for much longer," he said then looked towards our parents. "Go find a priest~"
"What do you think? Should we make them wait longer?" My father asked his.
"They barely know each other," Dracula muttered. "He already marked your daughter though. I can smell it all over her.... If we don't marry them soon, we'll be stuck having to watch them closely and put them on separate sides of the castle that way Richardo doesn't prey on her."
"It's normal to marry strangers," my mom said softly. "Let's go ahead and marry them off. Then we can look forward to grandchildren."
"Oh goody~ I'll go get our priest," Marry said and giggled, getting to her feet then paused. "Unless you two want to do it yourselves," she whispered, looking at both of our fathers. "Do you two want to marry them? I know you can on behalf of the royals."
"Hmmm..." my father trailed off then. "Dracula, why don't you give them your royal blessing in wedding them? After all you are king of all vampires." He smirked then got to his feet, straightening out his shirt as he walked over to us then yanked off Richard and made him stand before he bent down and helped me up gently.
"I guess I could~" He looked between us then smirked. "You two know what you're doing, right? Getting married right now? It means that you'll have to go off tonight and make the marriage official."
"They know that," my father said from across the room. "We've made it clear what marriage means to them earlier." I eyed over his father before nodding and blushed.
"Yes sir, I do know..." I looked at Richard then. Dracula nodded before he purred.
"Richardo," he said suddenly and looked at him, "do you promise to love, cherish, and hold Paris dear to you? To protect her in sickness and in health, to guard her honor, and to provide for her as long as you shall live?" Richard paused for a minute and looked at me with slight uncertainty before he relaxed and nodded.
"Yes," he said then looked towards his father who smirked and looked at me.
"Do you, Paris?"
"Yes," I said softly and looked back at his father. He nodded.
"Then I pronounce you husband and wife in the eyes of fate and all vampire-kind. You may kiss the bride, and so help me, if you wrong her Richardo, I will personally whip you," he warned sharply, sending his son a glare. Richard smirked and then kissed me before he wrapped his arms around my waist with a playful look. Dracula eyed us over and then pulled out a piece of paper, signing it then had Richard and I sign it before he returned to my father and made him sign it then started to talk to him. Richard watched for a few minutes then looked into my eyes before he smirked and stole another kiss. I blushed and leaned into the kiss a little.
"Well go ahead~ Take Paris to your bedroom," my mom said sweetly. "You two have fun together and don't miss dinner." Richard glanced at them before he gave a playful growl and swept me off my feet, carrying me towards the door.
"No promises!" He called over his shoulder and left the room with me quickly. He walked down the hall and looked down at me before he kissed me again on the lips, giving me a moan. I gasped slightly and eyed him over before my heart raced in my chest. I'm lucky! I found my mate and I'm married to him... His parents approve.... I'm about to have his children. He carried me into a grand bedroom then over to the bed in the room, laying me down on the satin sheets before he crawled over me then leaned in and kissed me. "Are you okay with this now?" He asked and purred as he lingered by my lips.
"Yes," I whispered to him and blushed. "This is what we're supposed to do when we marry," I told him. He kissed me then before he chuckled and kissed my neck.
"Well if you put it that way~" His fingers trailed towards my back before he started to untie my dress then slipped it off my body. He looked over the tight corset that was on my chest then undid it, letting me breath as he tossed it off the bed and then kissed my chest as he began to unbutton his shirt, pulling it off. I felt his fingers trail to my leg as he slipped between them and kissed my lips deeply. I wrapped my arms around him quickly before running them down to his pants and started to help him take them off. He pushed them down with me then kissed my neck as he started to grind slowly against my hips, pushing up against me. I blushed and eyed him over before I let out a small moan- this is so familiar- his touch against me...
~~~
I groaned as I heard glass shatter. I opened my eyes and glanced around before I looked at Louis sleeping next to me. I sat up slowly and smelled the air. Richard? I frowned and grabbed Louis's shoulder and shook him awake as I heard more glass shattering a room over like the window was being busted. Louis groaned and opened his eyes before he tensed then got to his feet quickly, rushing towards the door. "The hell?" He muttered. I frowned and rubbed my stomach as I sat up.
"Be careful," I warned him. "Go check it out." He glanced back at me and nodded, ducking out of the room and shutting the door behind him softly. He teleported back in quickly with wide eyes and rushed over to me.
"It's hunters!" He told me and looked me over worriedly before he scooped me up. "Let me take you back to the manor, please," he begged and looked down into my eyes. "I'll come back here and fight them off with the others. We have to make you safe though for you and your babies."
"What about Michael?" I asked him worriedly. "You need to rescue him," I told him and grabbed his shirt. "Don't forget how mortal his life is." He nodded and went to teleport me before I heard Richard's sharp growl down the hall- He's here. "Richard!" I purred out. "I'm in here with Louis!" I told him. I heard a gun go off suddenly, cutting off his snarl and making my twin flinch. I frowned and clung to Louis. "R-Richard?" I asked and gave a worried gasp as I felt my water break. I felt panic rising in me as I eyed over the door in worry. "RICHARD!" I felt hands snatch me out of Louis's arms before there was a firm kiss on my lips.
"I'm here," he told me and then held me close. "I just had to get away from them. They're everywhere out there. Laurence is taking care of it." I nodded and then reached down to my stomach.
"Richard, my water just broke." His eyes widened.
"What? Not right now," he said and looked at my stomach worriedly before he put me down in my bed and then looked me over, panicked. "ROSE! PARIS IS IN CHILDBIRTH!"
"PARIS! NOW ISN'T A GOOD TIME!" Rose shouted. I nodded in agreement and rubbed my stomach.
"I can't help it," I told Richard. He groaned as he looked at my stomach then kissed it quickly.
"Damn it, don't take too long," he told my tummy quickly and frowned, looking at the door worriedly as Louis rushed off to go fight. "Louis, be careful!" He looked down into my eyes then gave me a quick kiss on my lips before he slipped my dress up and looked me over with a slight frown before he rushed out of the room and came back with a bowl of warm water and some towels. "Paris, how are you feeling? Does it hurt yet?"
"No not really," I told him and frowned as I laid down on the bed and rubbed my stomach. "Stay here," I begged him. He purred and looked down into my eyes.
"Of course," he whispered and sat down beside me and took my hand in his, giving it a gentle squeeze. "You're going to be just fine. I won't let anyone hurt you or the baby."
"I know you won't," I whispered to him. "You're my mate." I rubbed my stomach and started to breath in and out calmly like Rose showed me to do.
"This is so not the time, Paris," Rose told me as she rushed into the room then looked at Richard. "Get out and kill those pigs out there. I'll deliver the babies. You don't know anything after all~ Not what I know." Richard hissed at her sharply and squeezed my hands.
"I'm staying right here that way no one comes in," he hissed. "I know more than you when it comes to fighting, and I don't want you trying to fend off vampire hunters while my mate is in childbirth."
"How many is here?" I asked softly and rubbed my stomach in worry.
"Just a few," Rose told me but I could tell it was a lie. Richard eyed her over then looked down into my eyes, giving me a gentle kiss.
"I love you," he murmured into my ear. "We're going to have to move quickly though. I don't want you stuck like this for too long- not longer than it has to be."
"You can't rush it," Rose told him. "Unless you want to just cut them out."
"They don't need that," I said nervously.
"We don't have the anesthesia to do it with," Richard said and frowned. "There's no way Paris would be sane after that."
"We'll knock her out," Rose whispered quietly.
"What!? You're not knocking me out- I want to be conscious during the birth of my children," I hissed out to her.
"Fine," she whispered. "We'll do it the hard way."
"There's only one anyways," Richard purred out then slipped my dress up my stomach and looked at Rose.
"It's okay Paris," Rose told me sweetly. "I'll make sure the babies are born safely." She looked at Richard then. "Why don't you barricade the windows and door." He nodded and got to his feet, getting to work on it quickly. I could hear fighting nearing the room as he got to the door and worked on it. It sounded like there was way more than just a few. I frowned and rubbed my stomach.
"R-Richard," I whispered. "What if they need you more than I do out there?" I asked him softly. He glanced back at me and gave me a reassuring smile.
"Sweetie, Louis and Laurence are both out there fighting hard. Between your twin and an all-knowing boy, I think they have it covered. Besides, someone needs to be in here incase they get past them and get in here- someone other than Rose. I don't want you alone during this with just one person in here... and they have a werewolf out there too, so it's not that bad. Plus we have a few newborns around... from our hunts.... It's not an army, but it'll add to the fighting force outside the room." I nodded and closed my eyes as I tried not to think too hard on it. If Laurence is here than everything will be okay.... Richard returned to my side then gently took my hand in his again and kissed it. "Everything is going to be fine~ I promise. If it gets really bad out there, I'll go help," he promised. "I'll be listening to them."
"Richard!" I heard Laurence yell. "WE COULD USE AN EXTRA PAIR OF FANGS!" Richard groaned then.
"ARE YOU SURE?! I'M KIND OF PROTECTING MY MATE!"
"DAMN SURE!" Laurence yelled. I heard Louis let out a cry of sorrow- like he had just lost something precious. Richard tensed then disappeared quickly, letting my hand fall back to the bed as he ditched. I frowned and felt a sharp pain growing in me and let out a scream of pain. OH GOD WHAT IS THAT!? I looked down at my body. FUCK GIVING BIRTH!
"Here," Rose said softly and pressed a hot-wet rag against my forehead and patted my skin. "Think happy thoughts," she encouraged me.
"LOUIS! GET HIM OUT OF HERE!" I heard my mate's voice booming down the hall- giving orders like the true prince he was. "Laurence, turn out the lights! It'll help us!" I heard the door bust down before a gun went off. Rose let out a scream of pain before falling into the floor quickly. I could smell her blood as she let out soft whimpers. I widened my eyes as I saw a familiar person in the doorway. ST CROSS!
"YOU!" I yelled at him.
"Sorry?" He asked and frowned as he eyed me over. "Who are you?"
"Paris," I hissed out.
"No, Paris is a male. You're clearly a female." He aimed me down with the gun then before shooting. I let out a scream of pain and grabbed my stomach as he got me there. "Where's Richard?" He asked. He eyed over the room and frowned. "How boring. I'm getting paid to kill him and he's not in here..." He turned around then. "Rot away," he told me. I growled at him sharply and went to get up but fell back down in pain. I heard a sharp snarl then before St. Cross was thrown back into the room harshly, and Richard stood in the doorway covered in blood. He glared him down then went after him, exposing his fangs before he smirked.
"Oh, I was hoping you'd be here. I'm going to tear you apar-" He looked at me then widened his eyes before he tensed then looked back down at St. Cross. His eyes filled with rage quickly before he was over him in a minute, tearing out St. Cross's throat as one of his hands tore his shirt open, going for his chest. St. Cross grabbed Richard's hands quickly and broke them as quick as he could before he kicked Richard off him.
"Richard~! Ready for round two?" He asked playfully. Richard hissed as he got to his feet quickly and started for him before there was a high-pitched noise and the windows shattered, letting in the cold. I'll tear him apart and burn him up! What he has coming to him is worse than Hell could have ever planned! I'll make him live throughout it all! He fucking shot my mate! He kicked St. Cross's chest in then reached down and tried to grab him with his broken hands, barely succeeding before he started to drag him towards the door.
"Richard," I called out to him in a begging tone. "Our babies!" He froze up and looked up at me before he let go of St. Cross, stomped down on his head then rushed over to my side. He looked me over and widened his eyes as he noticed where I got shot. I could feel his stone pulsing in panic before he looked my stomach over then looked up at me.
"P-Paris," he whispered. "Come on, you have to push."
"Richard, take them out now," I begged him. "There's no time." He tensed and looked me over before he nodded then pushed my dress up and leaned over my stomach. He hesitantly gave it a kiss then gripped my hand as he exposed his fangs and used them to tear into me to get to our kids. I let out a scream of pain and grabbed his hair quickly. "Richard!" Laurence ran into the room quickly and eyed us over before he took off his belt and ran up to us.
"Paris, bite down onto this," he told me as he shoved his belt into my mouth then grabbed my hands and pinned them down. "Richard, one of them is dying, get it out now," he said quickly. I eyed over Laurence and bit down hard into the belt as I let out a scream. I eyed over the blood dripping off him like he had done some serious fighting. I felt Richard's biting stop after a few seconds before there was a small cry as Richard pulled something out then purred. He relaxed a little then set down the baby before his eyes widened and he froze up. I could only hear one, not two. Laurence's eyes glazed over a bit before he looked down at me with a sorrow look.
"L-Laurence?" I asked as I spit out the belt. He shook his head and kissed my cheek.
"Paris," he whispered before he glanced over his shoulder. "You have to get the other out, Richard." Richard slowly nodded before he reached in and pulled out the last one then bit into the cord and looked towards me as he cradled our child, hiding it from my sight before he leaned down and kissed my cheek.
"L-Laurence, clean him up," Richard whispered, his eyes shooting over to the one that was crying at my side. "I'll take care of this."
"R-Richard?" I asked softly. Laurence let my hands go before he reached down beside us and suddenly held out a little slice of heaven to me. I eyed over the baby in his arms and reached out for him quickly before I held him close to me- eyeing over his tiny little head all the way to his feet. I let out a small gasp as I eyed him over with pure love. I'm not letting him go! Laurence laughed as he watched me before he looked at Richard.
"Go," he whispered softly. Richard nodded and glanced down at the one he was holding before he started for the door then suddenly snarled. I heard a crash as Richard threw St. Cross through a wall and went after him, full of rage as he carried our child in one hand.
"Paris," Laurence whispered to me. "You don't have a second child anymore," he told me and rubbed my cheek. "He didn't make it... but, you still have this one." I eyed over the doorway before looking back down at my baby boy. "You're going to have to give him twice as much love." I purred and kissed his head. This is my first born... Rightful heir to my throne and Richard's- well if I had one- but I gave it to Rose... "What's his name?" Laurence asked me sweetly. I eyed him over before I rubbed his cheek and watched as his eyes opened up to show off his pretty blue eyes. He eyed me over and I suddenly felt a sense that he loved me... Of course, he does, he's my baby!
"I love you," I whispered to him and kissed his cheek. "My little Donnie."
"D-Donnie?" I heard Louis ask at the doorway, leaning against it weakly as he glanced in. "You're naming him Donnie?"
"Yeah," I whispered softly. "This is Donnie." He nodded then winced before he fell to the ground. I could smell his blood strongly from here. He'd been shot like Rose. I felt Laurence get off me before he walked over to Rose and knelt over her. After a few seconds he stood up with a stone in his hand then walked over to Louis and knelt over him- going for his chest. I heard his hand get smacked before Louis sharply growled.
"I'm not dead yet," he hissed before I heard a shudder go through him. "Not... not like...." He started to cry then. Not like my Michael.
"Quit your whining. Be strong for your twin and let me heal you," Laurence growled out sharply before he pressed his hand into Louis's chest by force. My twin groaned and winced before his eyes started to glaze over and his eyes slowly fell shut as Laurence's hand drew back. Laurence stood up and eyed both stones over before he placed them in his pocket and started to clean up the room.
"When it's safer and less foul, I'll bring them back," Laurence promised.
"It's never safe," I heard Richard mutter as he came back in empty handed. He glanced the room over before he clenched his jaw and slowly came over to me then sat down on the side of the bed and looked at my stomach, his hair falling into his face. I eyed him over before I purred softly to him.
"Richard," I whispered and grabbed his hand. "Look at Donnie." I held him out slowly for him. He glanced towards our son before his expression softened and he took him from me gently, looking down at him. He purred softly and wrapped him up in his arms, kissing his forehead.
"Donnie," he murmured, trying it out on his tongue. I purred in delight as I watched him. I looked down at myself before I slowly pushed down my dress and let out a small groan. My body was healing- but there was still a slight stinging inside me... My body is healing slow.... I frowned before I looked at Richard.
"Richard," I whispered and rubbed my cheek. "I think there's still something in me," I mumbled.
"The bullet. I didn't get it. I was worried about the other one," he whispered and looked towards my stomach then looked into my eyes. "I can get it out or I can make you male again. Which one?"
"I thought I was going to breast feed Donnie," I whispered and blushed.
"I thought I'd leave that up to you," he told me then leaned in and kissed me with a slight purr. "You can always feed him now if you feel wrong about the first feeding not coming from you~ I was just suggesting that the healing process could be over and done with if I made you male again. If you want to stay female, I'll get some of the hunters in here and feed you their blood. They're not all dead yet- dying, but not dead."
"I guess it doesn't matter if I breast feed him.... He's a vampire anyways and will want blood more than milk... You can go ahead and make me a male," I told him and blushed. He nodded and purred at me.
"You better feed him first though. I don't want him starving while we search for something to feed him with," he told me and slipped Donnie back into my arms. I eyed him over and whipped off some of the blood on him with my dress before I caught Laurence walking out of the room and shutting the door behind him. I smirked a little as I watched the door before looking back at Donnie and opened his mouth with my fingers and investigated his mouth curiously to see his little gums.
"You're so precious," I whispered to Donnie. He cooed and eyed me over before his eyes flickered back to his daddy. Richard purred as he saw it then leaned over and kissed Donnie's head quickly.
"I'm going to spoil you so much~" He said and smirked. "You're going to be the most beloved prince there ever was, and I'm going to show you off to the others and make them jealous~ You're going to get everything you want~" I laughed as I watched Richard before looking back at Donnie as I felt him start to suck on my finger. Looks like he's hungry. I wonder when his fangs will come in... I guess I'll ask Laurence. I moved my dress to the side to expose my breast and eyed over Donnie.
"You better not bite me," I warned him and laughed before I adjusted us and sat up a little. I groaned out in pain from moving before I moved my finger out of his mouth and replaced it with my nipple. I eyed him over as he continued sucking before he let out a small moan- I guess he got some milk.... I blushed and looked at Richard.
"You better not ever- ever bring this up," I warned him. He smirked as he eyed me over.
"I don't know~ Maybe I'll keep you a girl longer," he teased me. "Then you can breast feed all day~" I blushed and shook my head a little.
"That's not fair," I whispered to him. "You'll just do that for your own amusement."
"You're right. It might be fun to mess with you later when Donnie's asleep," he teased me and gave a small growl as he moved closer then kissed my lips. I purred and kissed him back before I rubbed Donnie's head that I was holding. He's a little cutie... I can't wait to see what kind of man he'll become. Hopefully a good one. One that I can be proud to call my son. Richard glanced down at him and laughed. "He looks so much like you. There's barely any of me in him," he whispered and sat down beside me, making sure not to jostle me on the bed.
"What did his brother look like?" I asked softly.
"They were identical twins," he murmured and looked into my eyes. "He was gorgeous." I frowned a little as I looked at the doorway before looking back at Donnie and smiled. I was going to name his twin Dannie...
"He was going to be Dannie," I whispered to Richard. He nodded then rubbed my head.
"I'm sorry he didn't live," he mumbled to me and then kissed my temple. "I buried him outside and placed a rock over his grave, so we'd know where to find it."
"We'll have to tell Donnie when he's older and more mature about his twin... but for now I don't think he should know for a very long time." Richard nodded quickly.
"That's probably best," he whispered. "I don't want him growing up thinking about his missing twin. It would ruin his childhood."
"Do you think he knows now?" I whispered. "That he lost his twin when he came into this world?" He glanced at Donnie then before he frowned.
"I don't know.... He might know he has a brother, but if he does, I doubt he knows what happened," he told me. "We'll know if he starts looking for him soon."
"I wonder which one was the kicker," I giggled out and started to rub Donnie's little feet. He squirmed then and let out a small cry. Richard smirked and started to tickle Donnie's side playfully, eyeing him over.
"Only one way to find out~" I laughed and kissed Donnie's head as he gave us a mad look. He kicked a little and brought his feet closer to him as he let out another whine. I bet he wants us to stop. Richard slowly rubbed Donnie's side then, letting the tickling go as he ran his finger lightly across Donnie's skin then pulled away.
"Where's those blankets that Rose made?" He asked and got to his feet with a frown. "Donnie's going to get cold."
"We still need to clean him," I whispered. "We made him some clothes as well."
"Well lick him clean," Richard teased me then reached down and stole him from me. "Come on cutie~ Let's get you a bath and then into some clothes and a blanket~ You can be back in mommy's arms later." He eyed me over before he started to cry- breaking out into a scream as he kicked again and looked at me. I smirked and reached back for him.
"Donnie," I called out. Richard smirked and walked out of my reach before he rubbed Donnie's head and gave him a quick kiss on the top of it.
"Hey~ Mommy will be right here when we get back," he cooed out then purred in his ear as he rubbed Donnie's foot with his other hand. "Daddy just has to clean you up." He let out a whine as he stopped screaming and gave a mad look again as he eyed me over. Richard started to hum in his ear and bounced him lightly in his arms as he walked towards our bathroom slowly. "Don't be so upset~" He whined again before closing his eyes and puffed out his cheeks. I laughed as I watched them and adjusted my dress to cover up. After a few minutes, Richard came back with a bowl of warm water, a cute outfit, and a blue blanket. He smirked and brought the things over to me, setting down the bowl with one hand then took the outfit and the blanket off his shoulders, setting it to the side before he went back into the bathroom and came back with a towel and then sat that down on the bed and looked at me as he slipped Donnie into my arms. "Let's clean him together~ He's our first." I nodded and sat up all the way before I moved closer to the bowl and slipped Donnie into the warm water. He eyed us over in shock and looked around quickly. Richard smirked and started to rub him clean, putting a little bit of water on his body to get the blood off. "There we go~ Isn't this fun?" He cooed out at Donnie and smirked. He leaned in and kissed the top of Donnie's head. "Baths are fun~" Donnie's little lips curled a little into a smile, but he looked like he was struggling to do it as he kicked his little legs against the side of the bowl. Richard got him clean before he helped me lift Donnie out and onto the towel before he started to dry him then put the outfit on him and wrapped him up in the little blanket. "There, all better," he said and slipped Donnie into my arms. "There's mommy too~" He put the bowl on the nightstand with the towel then climbed into bed with me, giving me a quick kiss. "You think we should fill up a bottle of your milk before we turn you in case, we can't get our hands on any milk soon?" He asked softly then looked me over before he frowned. "No... maybe you should stay a girl. Your milk will be healthier for him than anything else we find."
"You're right," I whispered. "You need to get me healed though," I warned him and eyed over Donnie before I purred and kissed the top of his head. He looked at me and closed his eyes quickly- looking like he was ready for a nap. Richard chuckled and nodded before he stole him from me and sat him aside on the bed then leaned me back.
"Want Laurie's belt to bite on?" He asked me sweetly, reaching for it.
"Yes," I mumbled and blushed. "Do this quickly so I can rest up," I begged. "I don't want it to drag out." He nodded and slipped the belt between my teeth before he kissed my stomach then dug his fingers into the bullet wound, starting to pull the bullet out. I groaned out in pain and tried to squirm away from him as I let out a gasp. "R-Richard," I whined out.
"Stay still," he warned me and then pulled his fingers out after a few minutes and tossed the bullet aside. "There, that's all there is. You should start to heal better." He purred then took the belt out of my mouth and replaced it with his wrist, giving a small smirk. "Bite." I eyed over his wrist before I bit down into him and started to drink his blood. He gave a small moan and then crawled over me slowly, looking down at me longingly as he pressed his wrist against my mouth more firmly. I could see the begging look in his eyes, wanting me to bite harder as he exposed his own fangs. I growled playfully at him and bit down harder. He moaned sharply and locked onto my eyes before he leaned in towards my neck and breathed in my scent. I want to mark him so bad~ I exposed my neck for him and blushed.
"Should we stay here still- even after the attack?" I asked softly.
"No, we're leaving as soon as we can to go back to the manor," he whispered and then brushed his fangs against my neck. "We'll have to rebuild a nursery for Donnie in the manor. He doesn't have one there...." He paused and glanced over at Donnie who was about a foot away from us then moved back to my neck and kissed it. "We'll take his crib with us if it's still intact." I looked down at Donnie to see he was kicking his feet a little and looking up at the ceiling in awe. "Let's paint the night sky on his ceiling," Richard purred out, noticing our little boy looking at the ceiling. "It'll give him something to look at~ Maybe he'll grow up and love the night sky- take his mate under the stars."
"Whatever he loves, we'll still love him," I told Richard calmly.
"Of course. He can love whatever he wants~" He purred out then sat up on me, looking over at Donnie. "You can love the night sky, the day sky, whatever kind of mate you choose~ I don't even care if you get with a stinky dog. I'll still love you to pieces~'
"Whoa, don't jinx it," I begged. "What if he becomes mated to one? They smell."
"Hey, if he gets mated to one, we'll put up with it.... We'll have to let their pack live nearby that way Donnie won't leave us to go live in their little pack house," he mused.
"At least wolves don't live forever," I mumbled.
"Hey~ don't be like that~" He teased me and laughed as he looked down at me. "You better love him no matter what happens."
"Of course, I will," I told him happily.
"Imagine it though. Wolves howling at our doorstep for our son on full moons," he teased and smirked, leaning down to kiss me.
"That would be terrifying for him," I laughed out and shook my head. He kissed me and then purred.
"I hope he finds a nice somebody.... I don't care if it's female or male, werewolf, human, vampire, pixie...."
"Pixie?" I laughed out and shook my head. "Do they even exist?"
"I don't know, but if they do, I don't care as long as Donnie wants it," he murmured and kissed me again before he yanked away and grabbed Donnie, pulling him into his arms. "I love you~ My little Donnie~ My baby boy.... You're going to be a daddy's boy," he murmured and kissed his forehead.
"No... He'll be a mommy's boy," I said quickly and purred. "But- I think it would be fun to go out to a market and see what's for sell, one day together."
"Hmm? You want to go to the market?" He asked softly and rubbed Donnie's head.
"I've never been," I whispered.
"You want to go to the black market, right?" He asked and laughed. I nodded and laughed.
"It might be fun to see what's there."
"Maybe we'll find pixies," he purred and kissed Donnie's head again. "We should wait till Donnie's a little older though.... Maybe when he's five.... That way if we come home with something, he will be able to play with it."
"Of course! I don't want to leave his side any time soon anyways," I purred out. "A market is no place for him."
"Of course," he said then slipped him into my arms, kissing both of us. I purred and kissed Donnie on the head before I gently placed him down by me with my arm wrapped around him.
"We better put him in a crib- can you bring it in here? I want us in the same room." He nodded and got off me quickly, going towards the door as he ran to go get it for me. I watched the door before I looked back down at Donnie and purred. I'm going to make him a lullaby... Something unique just for him. He came back carrying the crib and smirked as he sat it down right beside the bed.
"It's still intact," he purred out and chuckled. "We'll be able to keep this one and take it home with us."
"Good," I purred out and then held out Donnie. "Place him inside and cover him up to keep him warm." He nodded and stole him from me before he laid him down in it and covered him up to his chin. He purred at him and rubbed Donnie's cheek with a loving look before he chuckled.
"My little boy.... You're such a little angel.... You're too good for me," he murmured. I purred in delight as I watched them before I reached out for Richard.
"Come lay down with me," I begged. He glanced over at me then purred, crawling into bed with me.
"You're definitely too good for me," he growled out and kissed my neck. "The love of my life... my darling prince...."
"I thought we were pretty perfect for each other, soul mate," I purred out to him. He chuckled and kissed my lips then.
"We are perfect for each other," he whispered. "We're going to have such an amazing family~ Maybe one day we can give him a sibling."
"I want to," I whispered softly and softened my eyes. "Maybe a brother." He nodded then looked down at me.
"We need to raise him though first," he reminded me then kissed my lips before he chuckled. "When you're feeling better, I'll pack our bags so we can go home. Hey, do you know what Laurence is up to? He just kind of left us in here." His eyes shot to the door curiously as he went to sit up.
"I'm not sure," I purred out. "Do you want to go look for him?"
"I want to make sure he didn't leave to go home," he muttered and got to his feet. "LAURENCE! YOU'RE STILL HERE, RIGHT?"
"YES! CLEANING UP!" He told us. "GET SOME REST!" He nodded and relaxed, getting back in the bed beside me.
"ALRIGHT! CRAWL INTO BED WITH US WHEN YOU'RE DONE!"
"I PLAN TO BRING LOUIS AND ROSE BACK BEFORE I DO!" He told us. I curled up to Richard and buried my face against him.
"MKAY!" Richard put his arm around me and rubbed my back. "How's your stomach?" He asked and glanced towards it. "It's not bleeding anymore, right?"
"I don't think so," I purred out and looked down to see it was healed. I curled up to him and closed my eyes. "I need some sleep," I whispered to him and rubbed my head.
"Okay, get some sleep," he murmured and kissed the top of my head. "You did great today. I'm proud of you~" I nodded and felt myself drifting to sleep. I gripped his shirt a little before letting it go as I lost consciousness...
