I have officially concluded that I am not father material. Aleera has been asleep for two days and is
showing no signs of waking anytime soon. Her phoenixes were driving everyone insane. Chirping little
fuckers were always hungry, and we had to syringe feed the balls of fleshy mush.
Once again, I awoke in the middle of the night, or was it day? It has been two days, and I was losing
track of time already. Fuck doing that for months on end, years even. At least Ryze knew not to shit on
the damn floor or your shoulder when holding him. These bastards had no manners. And were devouring
more worms than we could dig up. We had resorted to hand feeding them mushed up Weetbix with a
syringe.
“I need sleep,” Lycus growls, rolling into me. cing his hand on my chest, he sleepily blinks down at
me, a smirk on his lips.
“I will suck and fuck the life out of you if you do this feed for me.” I shake my head. It was his turn.
“Please? I need my beauty sleep. You could go without sleep for a year and still be pretty,” Lycus says
between yawning. He drops his head on my chest, and I hear Darius chuckle as Lycus tries to bribe me.
“Please? I won’t evenin while doing it,” he purrs. I roll my eyes.
“Noining of a sore jaw or chapped lips, “I growl at him, and he pats my chest, rolling off to face
Aleera as I climb out of bed. Stretching my arms above my head, I look at Darius, who has a chick in his
hands, as he forces the syringe in its beak to feed it before grabbing the next.
“Lycus will suck your dick if you make me coffee,” I volunteer the germ that woke me. “He already owes
me a dick sucking for doing his night shift,” Darius says, and I re at Lycus.
“That fucker is getting more sleep than all of us,” I groan, feeling a little used. That little bitch will be
paying up, or I will pin him down and fuck his face. Either way, he is licking these nuts.
“Get in line. He’s got a lot of dick to suck. Pretty sure he owes Kalen one too,” Darius says, and I shake
my head, cursing Lycus internally for tricking me.
Sitting next to Darius, I grab a bird and syringe and help him feed the squeaking hungry birds. Ryze flies
into the room momentster, and I try not to throw up when he helps feed them.
“Good boy,” Darius tells him as Ryze feeds a few from the other crate.
“Marvelous creatures. I didn’t even ask him. He flew off when they woke me and has been back and forth
out the window,” Darius tells me as he gives Ryze a scratch under his beak. He then bounces off out the
window.
“They sense her,” I tell him, and he nods, ncing at the bed at our mates. “I don’t think they just sense
her, though. I think they know what you were,” I tell him. He swallows and nods.
“When she shreds.” I am about to ask when he holds up a hand and cuts me off.
“Don’t; I know what you are going to say.
“Darius, whatever it is you’re hiding, she’ll forgive you,” I tell him.
“It’s not her I am worried about. She may forgive me,” he mutters. “Then what is it? “I ask him.
“It doesn’t matter,” he says, and I see his eyes darken as he reaches over by the fire and grabs another
log. He tosses it in and turns back to the birds. I sigh, changing the topic, knowing that one I won’t get
anywhere with
“The power hunters?” I ask him, and he peers over at me.
“She has found us,” Darius answered, and I knew he was right. There was only one group of power
hunters thatrge, and they hadn’t been seen in years.
“I never saw her,” I tell him, and he shrugs.
“And they clearly didn’t expect what they found? I don’t think they even knew why they were here
besides power. I believe this was just to test out our defenses.”
You think she figured it out?”
“No other group, not even the council, are crazy enough to step foot into my Kingdom,” Darius says, and
he was right. We had never been attacked here before, never.
“She would have been looking for infinite power source res and Aleera.” He peers around at the crates
of Phoenixes. “These birds, they would have been like a beacon, “Darius says.
“Are you going to tell Aleera her mother is hunting her?” I ask him, reaching for another bird. He hushes
me, looking
toward her behind me, then shakes his head.
“You need to tell her, and you need to tell the others you did kill her father,” I tell him. Honesty was the
only way we would get through this. Yet Darius, I knew, was the most secretive of us all.
“I can’t,” he whispers.
“When she sees the truth, she will forgive.
“She may forgive me, but I will never forgive myself,” he says, standing up. I watch as he walks off into
the bathroom, shutting the door. I sigh, scooping up the next bird when Kalen wakes up, sitting up and
rubbing his eyes before ncing at the bathroom door.
“Everything okay?” he asks, tucking the nket around Lycus and Aleera. “Yes,
Kal, go back to sleep,” I tell him, but he shakes his head, climbs out of bed, and stops beside me.
He stares at my legs where I sat beside the crate, and I roll my eyes before opening my legs, and he sits
between them,
resting his back against my chest as he scoops out a chick and reaches for Darius’s syringe to feed it. I
kiss his cheek and continue feeding the squirming bird in my hand, whose beak was wide open, waiting
to be fed.
“I take it Lycus conned you too?” Kalen yawns, and I nod against his shoulder.
“Well, he’ll be in for a surprise when he wakes,” Kalenughs. I kiss his naked shoulder
“Hmm, unless you want to take his ce? You suck dick better,” I whispered, wudzincaan hieman kn

sucking on his ear. Kalenughs, tilting his head so I can’t keep nibbling on it.
“Feed your chick,” Heughs. I groan. My cock hardening at the mere thought of his lips wrapped around
it. Lycus will be paying up.
I waited for Darius to finish his shower before I kidnapped Kalen, forcing him into the shower with me.
“Nope, Lycus is your man; I am too tired, ” Kalen whines when I shove him against the shower wall and
try to kiss him. Kalen sighs instead, offering me his neck, and I don’t hesitate to sink my fangs into his
neck.
