Jonathan yawned in my arms and stretched,ying his head against my shoulder. “He couldn’t go with
me,” I said sadly watching my boy, neither could Hannah or Kennedy.
My children would be alien monsters on Earth. They didn’t look human and could never pass for it. I
thought of the movie, “Starman”, where the government had hunted down and killed the first
ambassador from another civilization. My children could not even im diplomatic immunity. They’d be
poked and prodded and kept in cages. Their freedom would be much more Limited than mine was
here.
Damien and his Brothers obviously couldn’t go either, they would be treated as foreign invaders. If I left,
I did so without my family.
“Think on it, Rachel,” Tosu said softly.
“One day you will be given the option.”
ttering talons announced Dinah hade to help Tosu move me and the two little ones down the
incline. Iposed my features and allowed myself to be lifted and moved down.
Once we were on the ground Jonathan was curious again. He only got toe out here when Evan
showed him the moons. He scrambled out of my arms and walked with us, exploring everything.
The women did not Let me walk unescorted to the quarters I shared with my friends and family. Tosu
and Dinah walked us all to the cave entrance.

“We wille for you tomorrow,” Tosu advised me, “after the little ones have fed after moon set move
them out into the room with the pool. We wille for you all after that.”
Tosu handed me Aiden and I carried him into therge outer room. Jonathan gripped my skirt and
walked beside us. He babbled amicably to Aiden until he saw the pool.
“Mama, ‘wim!” he demanded loudly pulling insistently on my outfit.
My men must have heard him and came out to greet us. They stood still when they saw I carried
another Little boy.
“Baby, it’ste and Aiden is tired. Come and have an evening meal. We will swimter,” I coaxed.

Jonathan threw a tantrum and sat down on the floor. He screamed and his stripes became dark and
prominent. The upset seemed to spur the same emotion in his Brother. The little boy I held started to
fuss and wiggle, suddenly finding the energy.
Damien took control when it became apparent what was happening. “Enough, young ones,” he said
firmly, “we will eat our meal and then you may y in the water.”
The firm male voice soothed both boys and they looked up at the older man expectantly.
Evan followed Damien and picked up a disgruntled Jonathan.
“Evidently,” he said quietly, “you have much to tell us, Sister.”
I was so d that Jonathan could eat some solid food. He nursed a bit, but was satisfied easily with
mashed up things from our tes and messy sips from his Daddy’s cup. Aiden had obviously never
eaten solid food and he nursed me dry.
My family was enthralled as I told them about the process of finding Brothers and Halil’s death. None of
them really remembered finding one another. They had foggy memories of the time before they were
together. but their first solid memories were at the Child Keepers.
“It has always been just us, together,” Bane said patting Kein’s back.
“I do not remember a time when you were not with me.”
