“What’s wrong with him, he is never like this?” Tobias says worriedly. Thaddeus quiets down and Tobias seems to have calmed him as he rests his head down on his father’s shoulder.
“He is so warm,” Tobias mutters, taking the damp cloth from Theo, draping it on Thaddeus’ head, trying to cool him down. Thaddeus turns his face and at first, I think he is trying to get away from the cold wet cloth, but then, Tobias suddenly grunts and his eyes glaze over slightly before he shakes his head.
“What?”
“Ouch, geez Thaddeus don’t bite.” He says, pulling Thaddeus away from him. There are fang marks on his neck and I realize Thaddeus bit him. Theo and I look at each other and I walk over, taking him from Tobias and he immediately starts screaming.
“I wonder?” Theo says before running from the room.
“Did you speak to Astral?” I ask.
“I couldn’t get a hold of her,” Tobias says.
“Well, what do we do, we can’t take him to hospital?”
Theo suddenly reappears, and I can instantly smell blood as it wafts to me. My fangs protrude from the smell. Theo passes Thaddeus a bottle full of blood.
“What are you doing, he is part human? He can’t drink that!” I try to protest.
But I’m wrong as Thaddeus snatches the bottle from him, drinking so fast he’s choking himself. Theo pulls the bottle from him, “Settle little man, calm down.” Thaddeus’ mouth opens, trying to get his lips around the bottle again as Theo holds it, forcing him to drink slower. I touch his head and his temperature is going down.
“Problem solved,” Theo says, and Tobias runs his hand across his neck. So Thaddeus wasn’t biting Tobias, he was trying to feed on him.
“He gotcha good,” Theo says, examining the bite on Tobias’s neck.
Thaddeus drinks the bottle in its entirety and his temperature goes back to normal.
“Should he be drinking blood at his age?” I ask.
“Well, he settled, didn’t he? And I have never met a Trybrid baby so I’m just going to assume it is normal.” Theo says and Tobias nods in agreement.
Thaddeus falls asleep in my arms and I watch his little sleeping face, brushing his curls out of his eyes. What the future holds for him makes me wonder… Walking him upstairs, I place him in his crib. When I walk downstairs, Tobias is waiting at the bottom.
He wraps his arms around my waist, pulling me flush against him. His lips move to mine as he kisses me gently before pulling back. “Did you get your dress?” He asks. Shit the fucking dress.
“Shit!” I curse.
“I’ll take that as a no? All good, you can walk down the aisle naked.” He says, wiggling his eyebrows at me with a smile on his lips.
“Yeah, because I’m sure we can hang those photos on the wall, I think we have tormented the priest enough with him marrying three of us. I don’t want to give the old fart a heart attack by showing up naked.” I tell him.
“Who’s going naked?” Theo says, walking in and sandwiching me between them as his lips go to my shoulder.
“If you’re getting naked, can I too.” He says, thrusting his hips into me.
“No one is getting naked,” I huff at their playfulness.
“You sure?” Theo asks, slipping his hand into my panties, and running his fingers along my slit as his lips trail down my neck leaving open mouth kisses on my skin.
