A Couple Days Later
Since Damon and Zoey were born big, healthy babies, they were free to go like three days later. I had to stay an extra day because I decided I wanted no more kids; I got my fallopian tubes burned. It hurt like hell, but it was worth. No more annoying pills to take, no more annoying condoms to buy. YAY! Since it had been four days since I had given birth, I was put on bed rest until the cut on my stomach healed and I healed. It was boring.
Adrian walked in the room feeding Zoey. I decided not to breast feed this time; two kids being breastfed was not easy let me tell you. Adrian leaned down and kissed my forehead. He knew how much it had hurt to push out two kids and to get a huge gash on my stomach just to stop having kids. He was being very nice to me. "Hey, baby. How are you feeling?"
"Better than yesterday, that is for sure." I smiled and held out my arms for Zoey. He handed her to me instantly. "What a beautiful daughter we have." Zoey and Damon looked not like Adrian but not like me, either; it was a combination of the two. Zoey and Damon were like the new generation of the Ivashkov/Hathaway generation. The both had my shape of eyes; the color was not green but blue green. They both had Adrian's straight nose. Damon and Zoey were going to be tall like Adrian was. Their lips were like Adrian's and mine mixed together: pouty and sexy. The hair color was a shade lighter than Taylor's. All in all, they were sexy twins that looked and Adrian and I put together.
I loved all my kids but right now these twins were the owners of my heart.
While I stroked Zoey's cheek, Taylor came rushing in. "Mommy!" She squealed.
"Be careful; don't hurt your Mom." Adrian said.
Taylor made a face when she remembered about Mommy's cut. My cut. I turned to her. "What's wrong, monster?"
She held a paper in her hands. "I have my Christmas wish list here." I handed Zoey to Adrian. She handed me the paper and I read it.
Taylor Alba's Christmas Wish List
Nintendo DS
A dog
More sisters
Lot of dolls
Tickets to see Garth Brooks
They were all okay except number 3 & 5. I looked at her. "How do you even know who Garth Brooks is?" Adrian laughed when he heard.
"Uncle Dimitri and Jack always listen to him."
"They do." I said. I had to admit that Garth Brooks was awesome too! I didn't know who in there sane mind didn't like Garth. "And give me a reason why daddy and I should give you those gifts?"
Her answer was automatic. "Because you love me and I love you both."
"Is that all?"
"And I am good to Valerie; I share my toys with her."
"Baby, Christmas, isn't in like at least three months." I kissed her cheeks and smiled. By this time of year, I would be getting a lot of lists. After all, that was what Christmas was all about to children. We had the best Christmas with Adrian's family and mine.
Six Months Later
Christmas came and went. That's how Taylor liked to say. The twins were now six months and they were the healthiest kids ever. They were in the age that they just wanted to crawl everywhere rather then being held by us. But there was a slight problem.
Damon and Zoey were not dhampirs.
As it crazy as it sounds, its true. We found out on the day after Christmas:
I noticed the ring on Dimitri's hand and I remembered why he had it on. "Dimitri, does that ring ever run out of Spirit magic?"
He nodded. "Yes, I have to go back to Russia to get new rings every once in a while."
"That's crazy. What Spirit can accomplish."
"No, its still amazing what my spirit feels for you."
I gave a what the fuck look. "You know, Dimitri, I think that lady that does that Spirit rings needs to work on your harder because you are definitely turning crazier day by day. Tell me, have you lost your mind?"
In seemingly fast movement, he grabbed my shoulders and pinned me to the wall. "Yes, I lost my mind over you." He put both hands on my cheeks. It was scary; his eyes flashed to red and then back to brown. His strength was returning. His skin started going down lower in temperature. "I need you."
I looked to his hand to see why the ring wasn't working. I noticed it then; the ring was dissolving. I had to do something. Something that didn't involved killing him, staking him. I couldn't do that; part of me still loved him. I tried reasoning with him. "Dimitri, come back to your senses."
He still remained all evil like. He kept coming at me. There was nothing I could do without killing him. I was going to die unless a Spirit user came here in time. It made it worse that Zoey and Damon were watching. Who was going to protect them while I was dead.
I tried again. "Dimitri. . ." I didn't know what to say anymore. Zoey and Damon crawled closer to me. They began crying when they saw Dimitri's hands on me. Well, Damon began crying. Zoey just kept coming closer, closer to Dimitri, her aquamarine see green eyes intent on him. It looked like a look more of an adult than it looked like a baby's.
I turned back to Damon, who still cried. His mouth was open enough for me to notice the small fangs he had. The sight of his fangs made me forget about everything, made me forget that Dimitri wanted to kill me. "What the hell?"
Zoey kept on coming to the monstrous Dimitri. My mind was still fixed on Damon's fangs so I didn't have enough mind left for me to register what happened next. Which was, Zoey neared Dimitri so much that he almost tripped over her. She lifted up her little hand and touched his leg. With that touch of her hand, Dimitri stopped acting so indifferent and turned back to the Dimitri everyone loved.
That meant, that meant. . . Zoey was a Spirit user. Just like her father. Damon was her bond mate just like Adrian and I were.
That was not it; Adrian and Lissa had done their share of studying with the twins and noticed that Damon saw ghosts like I did too. Damon and Zoey were bond mates but both of them were Moroi. All my kids were bonded, in fact. Ervin and Taylor were bond with a one way bond. So was Emmett and Valerie. But the most interesting pair of bond mates were Damon and Zoey.
There bond was a two way bond. Lissa and Adrian would be working with all the kids to help them develop their abilities. I loved my kids and wouldn't wish that anyone took them away from me. Yeah, they were unique kids.
