“I don’t want to leave.” She told me, snuggled into my side.
“And you will never have to. All of you can stay, even when they find their mates. And you are a part of our family. We will have to move your bedroom to our wing.” I said, and she looked up at me.
“You mean that?” she asked with tears in her eyes.
“It’s your choice, Gabby. But I would love for you to be a part of our family.” I told her, k!ssing her head.
“Can I call you mom?” She asked, and my heart swelled with so many emotions. Tears prickled my eyes as I tried not to breakdown.
“You can call me whatever you feel comfortable with, but I would be honored if you called me mom.” I told her, squeezing her tight.
“I love you, mom.” She whispered.
“I love you, Gabby bear.” I mumbled into her hair, k!ssing her head. All my previous anger was now forgotten as I held both of my babies. I never expected at 18 that I would have two kids, but the thought of not having either of them twisted my heart painfully.
“Gabby, do you want to play with James?” I asked her after I calmed down my emotions. She nodded, and we both stood up from the couch. Gabby helped me lay down the mat for him and then they both laid on the mat together. I watched them until Mason was in my head.
“Can you meet me in the hallway?”
“Gabby, I’m just going to be in the hallway for a minute,” I told her before I stepped out of the library.
Mason was waiting in the hallway, and I didn’t notice that Gabby had left the door open.
Before I could even get a word in, Mason wrapped one of his arms around my waist, pushing me up against the wall. He crushed his l!ps to mine, reminding me of our first k!ss. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I pulled him closer to me. He ran his tongue along my bottom l!p, asking for entrance, which I granted. My body was on fire as our tongues fought against each other.
Pulling a part only when our lungs were screaming for more air. He rested his forehead against mine as we both tried to catch our breath.
“I’m sorry, Baby.” He breathed out.
“I’m sorry, Mason.” I apologized, looking into his gold eyes.
“Have you told Derek?” He asked me.
“Told Derek what?” Derek said, standing behind Mason. He moved beside me, leaning against the wall.
“We have a daughter,” Mason said with a smile.
Derek looked at Mason and then at me.
“Gabby” I told him, and his face lit up. Just then, Gabby called out from inside the library.
“Mom, I think James is hungry.”
“I’ll be right there, Gabby bear.” I called back to her.
“She calls you mom?” Derek asked, and I nodded.
“She asked me if she could. I know she isn’t blood, but she’s mine.” I told him.
“Then she’s ours.” He said, pecking my l!ps. Both of them accepting her made me want to cry. It’s nearly impossible for an alpha to accept a child that isn’t his.
“Lets go get our babies settled. I’m expecting King Jordan’s call.” Derek said, and Mason led the way into the library. Gabby had picked James up and was walking with him. He was trying to eat her shoulder.
“Help.” She pleaded, and I couldn’t help but laugh.
Mason quickly walked over to her and took James. I passed him the bottle I had made for him earlier.
“Gabby, sweetie, find a book and I’ll read to you while I feed James,” Mason told her and her face lit up. She nodded and ran over to the shelves to find a book.
“Thank you,” I told him, k!ssing his cheek.
“It’s my pleasure, baby.” He said, peaking my l!ps before he sat down on the couch with James. Gabby quickly ran back with a book in her hand. I watched the three of them while Derek wrapped his arms around my waist from behind.
“You and Mason?” He mumbled into my neck.
“We are good, Derek,” I told him.
“So, why are you in the library?” He asked me.
“I wanted to do some research on the vampire royal family tree. Something isn’t adding up. And I also needed to see who would be next to inherit the throne. It would save me from going around the entire kingdom, asking everyone to show me their blood.” I told him.
“Blood?” He asked him and I nodded.
“Being of royal blood, we can identify royal vampires. They have different colored blood.” I told him.
“Wait, is that why Mason asked me what color Theo’s blood was?” He asked me.
“That’s why.” Mason called out before returning to the book.
“Theo’s blood was red,” Derek said.
“And I may not remember much from that day, but I’m pretty sure I would have noticed if his blood was a different colour.” I told him.
“So, what are you thinking?” He asked me and I shrugged.
“I don’t know. When I find it, I guess I will know.” I told him.
Walking around the library, I pulled out every book I found about the vampire kingdom. Finally, I couldn’t carry anymore, so I sat at the desk and started to read through them. Looking over, I found Mason, Gabby and a sleeping James, still snuggled on the couch. Gabby had pulled out a story about a princess and a dragon. I’ve only heard bits and pieces, but they both looked so happy.
Before I could open a book, one hybrid walked into the library, taking a seat across from me. I’m pretty sure his name was Wyatt, and he was a vampire wolf. I was curious about meeting his wolf. It was definitely an interesting combo.
“My queen, I think I can help you with information about the vampires,” he said.
“Please, Wyatt, call me Ashlyn. And what do you know about the vampire royal family tree?” I asked him.
“Obviously, I don’t know the past 300 years, but l know that family name of the King before we were locked away. It was King Tobias Kuran. My father, whose family were vampires, spoke of him, telling me the stories. He was a prominent leader, and my father said that he never had a problem with hybrids.” Wyatt said Derek had come over and was leaning on the desk beside me.
“Kuran was Theo’s last name,” Derek told us.
“But that makes little sense. If their family has been inheriting the throne for centuries, then why was Theos blood red?” I said, trying to put the pieces together.
“Wait, has a daughter ever taken over the throne?” I asked Derek, and he shook his head.
“The only daughter that I’ve known of to take over a throne is you. If a son isn’t born to the current king, the title is given to the next in line,” Derek explained.
“So, if Kurans have been ruling the vampire kingdom for centuries, then that means that Theo wasn’t a Kuran. That explains why his blood was red and not a different color” I said.
“You know about the blood of the royals?” Wyatt asked me, and I nodded.
“Then that has to be the answer. The king was not this Theos’ father,” Wyatt said.
“Now we just have to find someone who is a Kuran.” Derek said, and I agree.
“Now can I call King Draco?” I asked him.
“Maybe I should call him. He may not know that Theo wasn’t his blood son.” Derek said, and I nodded.
“Wyatt, being a vampire hybrid, how is the blood lust?” I asked him, turning my attention back to him.
“I don’t have it. I can drink blood and it strengthens me, but it’s not a need,” he explained.
“Thank you, Wyatt. I really appreciate your help.” I told him.
“it’s my pleasure, Ashlyn. Whatever you need.” He said, standing from his chair.
