Daughter of Ethos: Price of Power Book 3 Page 35

by L M Lacee


  When she arrived, she programmed coffee and a bottle for the boy; he was clean and wrapped in an old cut down shirt of hers. Peyton sipped her coffee while the boy lay across her knees partly asleep, drinking his bottle and watching the stars zip by. He was probably far too old for a bottle but for now until she got some advice, this would suffice, she would ask Paolo tomorrow.

  Daughter, you called us to you.

  Thank you for answering.

  This is why we are here, you are well?

  I am, thank you.

  What can we explain for you?

  I hoped you would show me how to render a judgement.

  Who needs judgment?

  The Eictorians.

  From where do they derive?

  The planet Eictoria.

  We have not heard of this world for many yentas. I believe it is not in the Indorino universe. We shall investigate.

  Alright.

  We will return momentarily.

  Peyton watched the moving stars as she waited, within seconds they returned.

  Why is there a need for judgment?

  Allow me to show you.

  A few mins later, they answered after watching the scenes Peyton relayed. We will render thy judgment for you, Daughter.

  I did not call you to do what I can do.

  We understand, and in time you will place this judgment, but not today.

  It is with a heavy heart I ask this of you.

  We know Daughter; the race has been corrupted through disease and a closed society. They are no longer fit for any universe. It is best they cease to be. Truthfully this should have been taken care of yentas ago before the disease spread as it has.

  Thank you.

  We ask for clarification.

  Of course.

  What do you intend for the boy child’s life?

  I intend to keep him and raise him as mine.

  You consider this wise?

  Most assuredly, do you have an opinion because we did discuss this when I agreed to become your arm of justice.

  This was so. And yet we did not, it seems, understand the full import of your stipulation at the time.

  And now you do.

  Yes, we do.

  Peyton felt their withdrawal it was slow and held affection and confusion. She had not felt either emotion from them before; it brought a smile to her lips.

  Mins later, Darby silently arrived carrying her boy in one arm, a baby bottle tucked under her other and a cup of tea in her hand. She did not appear to have her tablet with her, an unusual occurrence. Her boy was dressed very much as Peyton’s was.

  She placed him as Peyton had across her lap and they sat quietly and in peace, all four watching the view. When they had consumed most of their drinks and the boys eyes were closed in sleep. Darby said. ‘I think they are too old for bottles.’

  ‘Yeah, we will get help in the morn.’

  ‘Paolo?’

  ‘Probably.’

  Darby brushed the jet black hair from the boy’s forehead as he lay on Peyton’s lap and asked. ‘What do you think the Star Child will say about you keeping him?’

  ‘What can they say, it was in the terms of the agreement? I will have a family, he is now part of my family?’

  Darby smiled at her tone, she obviously had already had words with the Star Child. She wasn’t annoyed, so she must have won. She changed the subject. ‘So have you named him yet?’

  ‘Yes, I called him Rayvan.’

  ‘Rayvan, I like that, because of the hair right?’

  ‘Yep, so what name did you choose?’

  ‘Rex?’

  ‘Darby no.’

  ‘Comp?’

  ‘Definitely not.’

  ‘Elvis.’

  ‘Who?’

  ‘Never mind.’

  ‘Well then no.’

  ‘Systems?’

  ‘Not happening.’

  ‘Moonbeam?’

  ‘Never gonna work.’

  ‘Techie.’

  ‘Good stars no. I will seriously harm you.’

  ‘Rusty.’

  ‘That has possibilities.’

  ‘Drayken?’

  ‘Nice, yeah that’s the one, good choice.’

  ‘I thought so.’
