“Well, isn’t this a strange thing to come home to, our ex-wife helping our future wife?” Tobias says, shaking his head.
“I don’t mean any harm; I just want to make amends,” Bianca tells them. Theo and Tobias are unsure as their feelings hit me through the bond.
“Well, Astral is downstairs,” Theo says, and we follow him downstairs.
Astral is sitting on the couch and as soon as I step into the room, I watch as her aura glows around her and her eyes turn white, reading the atmosphere and everyone’s aura’s. She smiles softly before getting up and embracing me. I hug her tightly and Thaddeus runs out, having escaped my father, grabbing her legs. She smiles fondly at him, brushing his hair from his face as he beams his bright smile up at her.
We all sit down, and my father brings out a tray full of coffees, handing each of us our cups. I watch as Thaddeus climbs up on the couch and sits beside Astral, playing with the charms on her bangle.
“You’re looking well, excited for the big day or are you getting cold feet?” She says, smiling at the horrified looks on Theo and Tobias’s faces.
“Nope, they are toasty warm.” I reassure them, and Theo sighs. I know she is having a dig at them. I hand her the bracelet, and Thaddeus instantly tries to reach for it, but she pulls it away; the stones light up at his closeness. She checks it for any cracks, and I watch its aura flicker as it reacts to Thaddeus being so close to it, like it is calling out to him.
She hands it back, frowning. “It is weird. I feel it growing stronger every time I hold it. Do you notice it too?” She asks, and I nod. I haven’t told Theo or Tobias. I didn’t want them to worry, but I have noticed the darkness sometimes. It makes me feel cold and hollow.
“We might have to put a binding spell on it soon, just to make sure it can’t get out, and reinforce the stone.” I nod in agreement.
“I see you’re doing well, Bianca.” Bianca looks at her nervously before smiling, but says nothing.
Bianca has angered many people with what she has done. It will take a while before she earns any trust from anyone, but I suppose to gain it, I have to give it to her.
“Well, I best be off. I will have a meeting with the coven to figure out our next steps.” She says, hopping up and drinking the rest of her coffee before placing it on the tray. Tobias and Theo follow me out to say goodbye, and I watch as she hops in the car. She winds down the window as she starts the car.
“Oh, and congratulations!” She yells to us, a devious smile on her lips, making my brows furrow in confusion.
“On what?” I ask.
“You’re pregnant, dear. How hadn’t you noticed?” I gasp at her words, shocked, and I feel Tobias’ and Theo’s shock through the bond, before I feel their excitement flood me.
“What? How?” I ask, confused.
“Well, when two or in your case three people have sex…” I cut her off, waving my hand at her, I know how babies are made. She chuckles softly. “You’re not a full vampire yet, Imogen. You’re still half witch, I can’t wait to meet her,” she says, before laughing while she winds the window up. I watch as she drives off. I know better than to doubt her, I’m more shocked I didn’t pick it up myself. But it does explain how my dress doesn’t fit.
Turning around, Theo can’t hide his excitement as he jumps up and down, Tobias is side-eyeing him, like he has gone mad. “We’re pregnant,” I say, letting the words sink in.
