“I’ll need you to explain everything after I feed this boy.” I told him.
“Always hungry, like his momma.” Mason laughed, taking him from me.
“Really? Both of you out eat me, easily.” I huffed.
“Not cupcakes, muffins or cookies.” Derek chimed in, and I gave him a pointed look.
“Then you know what to get me instead of flowers,” I told them.
We moved our chat into the kitchen, and Derek made James up a bottle while he tried to rip out Mason’s facial hair.
“Buddy, that’s attached to me.” He cried out. I was laughing. Getting babies to let go was nearly impossible.
“I think he’s telling you it’s time to shave your poky face.” I told him, while helping with James.
“But I like it.” He pouted.
“When it gets longer, it will just be worse.” Derek chimed in, passing him the newly made bottle.
“Ugh. Fine.” He huffed as he fed our starving boy.
You’d figure he had never eaten before.
“Okay, now explain what you found?” I asked him impatiently. I was dying to know.
“Why don’t you explain this mate bond stuff you found out about?” He countered. I scrunched up my nose.
“Fine,” l eventually breathed out.
We all sat at the table before I started. Derek handed me a coffee before taking his seat.
“So, since I don’t have the other half of my soul, Tundra, the bond won’t be the same. And everything affects the bond. Pretty much I’ve learned, you have to be happy for the bond to be happy. I think it moves things along, but it can fade over time, just like love and lvst. Also, I know why the bond broke. I wouldn’t have been able to kill Theo if the bond was still intact. I’m not sure why, though. He had a chosen mate,” I explained.
“Theo, rejected her.” Derek told us. And it all made me.
“That’s why I felt sparks when he was at the camp. He had already rejected her. Anyway, you can’t kill your mate, you will die. Which would also mean that Grace never killed Brad. She would have had to get someone else to do it for he.” I told them.
“So if we are happy, the bond is happy?” Derek asked
“Basically, I know it’s confusing. But in the beginning, we were all happy and the bond fed on our happiness. But we, me, right now, it’s feeding on my negative emotions and that’s what’s making you doubt the bond.” I continued.
“So, how do we help you?” Mason asked me.
“I’m not sure yet. I know this is hard on both of you.
But as of right now, l just have to take this one day at a time. And we need to communicate. If you are feeling worried about anything, you need to tell me. Also, please don’t doubt me. I’m here because I love you and our family. I could have stayed in what I assume is heaven, but I came back to you three,” I said.
“I’m sorry, baby. We should never have doubted you. I guess those emotions were bleeding into us and we couldn’t sift through them,” Mason said. James was done with his bottle and I took him from Mason to burp him. I was standing, bouncing him gently as I rubbed his back. Mason stood and came over to me, k!ssing my l!ps.
“I’ve missed you so much. And you are so sexy with our son in your arms.” He whispered, making me smile.
“I missed you. Now tell me what you found.” I huffed that last part, making him laugh.
“De-man-ding.” Mason and Derek laughed while I glared at them.
“l am not. I just know what I want. And I want you to tell me.” I told him.
“But first, tell us what happened last night at the lake.” Derek asked, and I looked at him, confused.
“What are you talking about? Nothing happened. I jumped into the lake to let out my screams.” I told him.
“Baby, whatever you did, knocked us on our a*sses,” Mason said.
“I don’t know. I felt pressure again, and I just had to release it. My mind is a little foggy, and I don’t actually remember jumping into the lake or swimming out that far.” I told them.
“Like the pressure you’d feel when you were still an elemental?” Derek asked, and I nodded.
“Could you still be an elemental?” Mason asked.
“Selene told me that all my powers were gone, that I’m basically just a witch now. So, I do not know. Maybe it’s a witch thing. I’ll have to go to the magic kingdom and do some research, and I also want to see Nathan.” I said.
“So, the moon goddess took everything away?” Mason asked me, and I nodded.
“There’s always a price to be paid. Tundra made a deal with Selene for Brad’s life and then another one for mine.” I explained. I was instantly sad, thinking of what Tundra had sacrificed for me. She was my best friend and I miss her dearly.
Mason and Derek must have felt my emotions because they both came over to me, wrapping me in a group hug.
“I know, Baby. Thor misses her just as much,” Mason told him.
“And Magnus,” Derek chimed in.
“What do you guys think of tattoos?” I asked them. They both pulled away and looked at me, stunned.
“You want to get a tattoo?” Mason asked me, and I nodded.
“Tundra’s name isn’t on our mark anymore. I want to get something done, so she is always with me.” I told them.
“I love that idea, babygirl.” Derek said, k!ssing my cheek.
“Me too, Baby.” Mason agreed, k!ssing my other cheek.
“Okay, now tell me what you found!” I huffed. Mason stared at me, increasing the suspense.
“Fine, I’ll tell you.” He finally said.
“Thank you.” I breathed out. I snuggled James back into my neck. He must be growing since he’s eating and sleeping so much.
“But let me go change James first, so he can sleep,” I told them.
“I got him.” Derek said, taking James.
“Come on, little man.” He said to James, walking out of the kitchen.
“Men are definitely sexy with a baby in their arms.” I said out loud, watching Derek leave the kitchen.
“They are indeed chick magnets.” Mason laughed. I turned and glared at him.
“Don’t you dare!” I told him, sitting beside him.
“Like I need another woman in my life. You’re more than enough.” He said, grinning at me.
“That had better be a compliment,” I told him.
“Of course, Baby.” He leaned in, giving me a k!ss. The k!ss started out gently, but it didn’t take long until I was sitting in his lap, my fingers in his hair and my tongue tasting every inch of his mouth. It wasn’t until heard someone clear their throat did I pull away.
“Now, who’s making out?” Derek asked, taking the chair beside us.
“Where’s James?” I asked him. Still catching my breath.
“Sleeping. I laid him down. Now, should Mason explain what he found, or should we just go back to bed?” Derek asked, wiggling his eyebrows at us.
“No, I need to know. After.” I laughed out, looking at Mason.
“Now, explain.” I told him firmly. I could feel how turned on he was. It was digging into my thigh.
