Somehow Erin did not appear for three days and Kamily fell into sorrow and suffering.
"Where have you been for so long?"- She rushed over to him when he finally appeared.
He embraced her passionately, breathing deeply.
"Sorry, I've been very busy! Everything is not easy for us there, there were long-drawn battles. I also missed you very much", - he enthusiastically hugged her with his arms, wrapping his wings around her.
"It looks like you're going to kiss me," - Kamily said softly.
"Yes, but no! You are not ready for my kiss - you will faint."
"I brought you some bigger clothes." - He handed her a dark blue roll.
Kamily unfolded it and held it close to her.
"Thanks! - she said sadly. - You were right, I'm really pregnant. My dress is getting small. Still, explain how you found out about it?
"Any syrinx can see it. A child is a living crystal, and when it is born, we feel its radiation."
"Crystal? - Kamily was surprised. - Is there some kind of solid crystal inside me?"
"No, not like you think, it's not a hard stone. It's plasma, but it grows like a baby inside a woman's body. This is another form of life that can reproduce in people, even barren ones. The womb of a woman is a convenient vessel and conductor of energy for the successful growth of a small copy of the syrinx."
"Where are your women?"
"Killed in an invasion five hundred years ago. There was no way to escape. The enemy destroyed thousands of syrinxes."
"It turns out that your race uses people, - Kamily was indignant. - It's kind of disgusting!"
"We have no other choice until we revive our women. Therefore, our men are trying to attract the female attention of your race in order to become fathers. Do not forget about love, we also have strong feelings that are often mutual. Syrinxes love women, they don't use them, - Erin explained. - I love you so much, Kamily, and would like to live with you."
"My life will be short and you are immortal, why do you need this?"
"Perhaps you are a long-liver because of your father, - Erin said with a serious look. - So don't worry. You will live with us for a long time without problems. I can't take you to Azaren right now. It's not safe and there are a lot of men who would empty you."
"Can't you hide me secretly in your house?"
"I can of course but not for long, - Erin laughed. - Guys so sensitive and will find out about you anyway."
"Tell me, have you had women before?" - she suddenly asked.
"I tried to get acquainted, but unsuccessfully, they are heavily guarded. I don't want to kidnapp someone. It's a risky business to seduce girls. Many of my tribesmen were missing, and we realized that they were killed because of the women. I appreciate my life a lot especially when you have to reborn again and to learn everything anew. A new body is hard to find."
"You've lived before?"
"Of course I lived in another body until died in battles."
"And you remember everything?"
"No, not all only special moments of past life."
"Wow, I don't remember anything at all."
"Because you have no connection with your heritage, you are cut off from your spiritual nature."
"Do you have such a connection?" - Kamily was surprised.
"Yes, everyone in our society has a connection with our Overlord — a Superbeing from higher dimensions. Everyone who is initiated with this Source can receive energy for the body and live forever. If you are in his charge, he takes care of you and endows you with immortality."
"Can I have contact with the Source?"
"I think, yes! Over time, if you seek that connection. If you are the daughter of a syrinx, then so is His Daughter. Fate has already brought us closer, so you are under the protection of our Creator."
Kamily plunged in heavy thoughts.
"Does your father know about us?"
"Everyone already knows about you and wants to meet. I won't let anyone get close to you, don't worry. Who will argue with the son of the Archon with my title the Yary the Thunderer? I can easily punish anyone who dares to approach you."
"Larielle is afraid of you too?"
"Ha-ha! Na! He argued constantly with me but cannot fly to you because of a broken wing."
"Is that how? Is he worrying about me?"
"He needs the baby more than you, - Erin explained. - He is not alone at all, spoiled by the attention of lovers and admirers."
"Like this? - Kamily asked incredulously. - In what sense?"
"In direct! Everyone thinks my brother is handsome and feminine. He takes care of his appearance too much to please everyone and his cousins try to imitate him in everything. Lary is a fem boy and skilled lover, heartbreaker…"
"I thought all syrinxes look like him: long colored hair and lilac eyes."
"Na! - Erin laughed. - But everyone has big eyes and blonde hair in different shades. The warriors are much more modest and practical: short hairstyles and simpler clothes. Lary is the coolest of all: he dresses up provocative fluttering between us. Of course, everyone has a reaction to him as a girl."
"Does he participate in battles?"
"He is a creator and healer, not a warrior. The fact that he came under fire from the enemy was an accident. The detachment then returned from Kentau, a fortress on distant frontiers. That's why they searched for him for so long on a vast territory while he was having fun with you. Father realized that he was alive, but Lary did not answer him telepathically on purpose in order to have time to seduce you."
"Do you have a boyfriend too?"
"No! I am more interested in the development of magic abilities, and not in love pleasures, especially since I am always busy defending the planet. But I have special feelings for you, I want you to know that I have never loved anyone like that."
Erin kissed her softly and purred in pleasure as he held Kamily close to him.
