“At least I didn’t wreck the RV.”
“You sideswiped another RV! You’re so lucky that Snow covered for you! I’m surprised that Joey never woke up, because he would have been livid.”
“There are a lot of things we did under Gabe and Joey's noses.”
She plucks out a few more stray hairs, “Those poor guys, and they had such a hard time keeping up with us fools!”
“My husband has a new tattoo of us.”
She appears surprised, “He has me on his body?”
I giggle, “Remember when we went mud sliding in North Carolina? He has a large tattoo of us covered in mud. Right underneath us, it has the words ‘Double Trouble’. What do you think?”
He’s so silly, and we’re not that bad! Well, not yet. We go to college on Monday. This should be interesting.”
“I never thought we were that bad, and I thought we were on our best behavior. At least we were never arrested, or did anything horrible this time.”
She puckers her lips out. She wears a set of matching pajamas like mine. We left my bathroom with our robes on. The leaders are still in their meeting. I chose to make a quick dinner for us. We sit down at my new dining room table, and this table can seat a hundred people. We scarf the food in our pajamas and robes. I left the dishes in the dishwasher. She follows me to our master bedroom, and we even snuck in ice cream just to watch television.
The first thing shown is the fairy trial of the century. She groans as she changes the channel with her finger. She flips it to something stupid.
“Oh look! Our dark and deepest questions revealed. We have to watch this show.”
“Are we really watching Robin Fang's, ‘The Existences of the Rich and Famous’? This is so insane.”
“LOOK! They are really counting down supernatural creatures! That’s so freaking awesome.”
I pinch the bridge of my nose from the brain freeze ice cream caused me, “That’s shitty. I think it’s sad that they have nothing better to do. Come on, Ember! Do we have to watch this show?”
She points at the werewolf king, “That’s Ransom Taylor, and he’s part of the original pact.”
We notice that Ransom also has dealings with our husbands and the Hunters.
“Ransom just married his wife too. Oh, wow! Look at that nursery.” They have wolves, trees, and a boyish theme for their nursery. We stare at each other.
“That’s some nursery. I’ve never seen that much gold in one nursery before.”
She agrees, “That’s a little too much, but I also think they are allergic to silver.”
“I believe she’s further along than us though. She’s having a boy, but we don’t even know what we are having yet. I’m trying to survive the first trimester.”
“Oh wow! That’s a hefty price tag. That’s a lot of gold on that crib. Oh, wait! Robin is mentioning who is next.”
His voice announces, “Next are Gabriel and Ember Aduro...” We spit out our ice cream at the same time, and we nearly fall out of bed.
She cocks her head to me, “Did he just mention our names? Did he just say Ember and Gabriel? I didn’t earn any money. What the fudge knockers?”
We wait until Gabriel and Ember's names hit the number ten spot. Her face changes and I about choke.
“I’m in shock! I guess my questions are about to have answers.”
“He has some deep dark secrets that he’s never told you. He’s a photographer, a business owner, and a bunch of other fun things.”
She narrows her gaze, “What do you mean by my husband has this? I didn’t help him earn this. I really feel like a lush now. Look at all those degrees. He doesn’t need college, and I’m the one who needs college. He’s an overachiever!”
We listen hard as Mr. Fang returns to announce, “Prince Gabriel Aduro has ten condos, mansions, and he recently purchased a mansion in Avalon next to billionaire, Prince Joseph Cirrus.”
We glance at each other, “Did they just mention Joey’s name?”
“I believe he’s wealthy too. You might want to listen to what he actually has.”
“Now I can see why he never lets me pay for anything. I’m pissed now! I remember the hotel. I was trying to put my credit card down, but he refused to hear or have any of it. I even remember his diamond credit card. I often wondered, if he was selling drugs—or doing something illegal. There’s no way he should have a no limit diamond credit card. Only my grandparents have one of those. He did things that made me wonder about him.”
“It appears that I’m not the only one, who has a secretive husband. You had to have known something. Do you remember the money he offered for the dance off? He upped it to two million dollars without even batting an eye.”
“He’s a dead hubby. Now I wish I never ripped up that check. Oh, that’s so right! I remember DJ Mike saying something about him being a billionaire, but I never paid attention at that time.”
“I told you that you should have never done that. Anyway, it’s too late now.”
We laugh and watch Ian hit the list at the number five for his porn industry. We are fascinated with all the kinky toys he’s developing for supernatural creatures. I pull it up online to see, and sure enough. The man who saved me is a porn pioneer for supernatural creatures. We watch them pick our friends off one by one. The vampire king makes it in the top ten. Our grandparents make it on the list too, and I had no idea. I watch intently, when it comes to the top two on the list.
She gasps, “Oh! I hate commercials! I want them to get it over with, and this is so stupid!”
Robin Fang smiles, and he announces the second spot goes to my husband. I nearly fall out of bed. They show our new houses. We also have a wedding that we are planning here in Meropis. They show every single cabin, condominium, mansion, car, and all the motorcycles he owns.
That’s when she faces me, “Why does he need airplanes, if he can snap his fingers?”
“I will take a wild guess, and say that those are for human businesses he deals with.”
She made an ‘oh’ face as we continue to watch television.
They mention that he’s married to me as they do with Ember. I shake my head, and I want to turn the television off. They show his house in North Carolina. This makes me run for the toilet to throw up.
She hands me a washcloth, “I hope your morning sickness ends soon.”
I glance over at her, and she’s still eating ice cream, while I’m still throwing up, “How can you keep eating? Don’t you have morning sickness?”
“I haven’t thrown up yet, but I’m super hungry all the time. I’m going to be huge, by the time I have this baby. So how does it feel to be fucking wealthy?”
The thought makes me groan, and walk out the bathroom, “I never expected to hear that.”
They list all his degrees in business. He has degrees in arts, theater, dance, and they even put up his resume. He owns the tattoo parlors across the world, and I actually had my tattoo done from one of his parlors. He owns restaurants, strip clubs, dance clubs, motels, hotels, resorts, and numerous other things. They show joint ventures with Gabriel, the Hunter brothers, and Ransom Taylor. I crawl under the sheets to lay my head down. I watch the number one supernatural creature named.
They announce that Christian Hunter is the number one richest supernatural, by only a few thousands of dollars. This is even after Joey sold off some of his businesses. I want to puke some more.
I’m about to until Robin mentions, “Christian is also dating a princess. He’s romantically involved with Vampire Princess Jeanne Justice-Denali. They are currently expecting their first child.”
They flash a picture of our husbands on screen.
She points out, “I bet you that Jeannie knows more about her boyfriend. She’s also pregnant too. This is so cool! I can’t believe that all four of us are having a baby at the same time! I hope she’s as nice as her boyfriend.”
I peer over at her sadly, “She lost his baby. She had a miscarriage, and it nearly
destroyed her. I happened to overhear his conversation with Joey. Christian is upset about it too. She moved out, and then she moved in with her grandfather. She couldn’t handle the memory of losing their baby.”
She gasps in shock, “Oh! How awful! I’m at a loss for words! I was thinking about, how cool it would be that all four of us are pregnant at the same time.”
“I think we may need to be welcoming, but we have to keep our pregnancies at bay. I don’t want to upset her in any way.”
“I feel so awful for her! That has to be horrible! I’m so glad that the public doesn’t even know.”
We change the channel only to find our husbands on the other side of the door. We can flip it with the snap of our fingers. Joey walks in first, and he makes it to my side of the bed.
He leans down to kiss me, “I love you. Are you two staying out of trouble?”
She chuckles, “For now we are. We still haven’t decided on whether to rob that bank yet.”
Gabriel sits her on his lap, and he rubs her belly.
Joey plays in return, “I can see the two of you going far, especially since you’re both expecting our babies.”
Ember remembers, “Rosalie just told me about Jeannie! I feel so bad for her. Are they doing okay now?”
Joey pulls me on his lap, “Actually she’s back with him. I have a good feeling that she will be pregnant again really soon too. The dudes keep teasing him, because she keeps him in the bedroom. He plans on asking her to marry him really soon.”
We gasp and squeal at each other, “I hope he does! I’m so glad they worked out their problems.”
He kisses me, “He told me to thank you for your advice. I forgot to mention it a while ago. He did exactly what you said, and he had his breakthrough with her. She lost it finally. Now they are at a much better place. She dealt with a nasty admissions woman, who hates princesses. The admissions woman tried to overcharge her one million and fifty thousand dollars for her college degrees. Jeannie broke up his business meeting to ask for her money. He was hot, when she told him about the money the woman was trying to extort from her. He found that the woman was extorting money from all the princesses, and she even took money from Tanya. He made the woman repay all the money, and now she’s serving time for her deception. That’s why she wasn’t there when you two registered the next day.”
Gabriel smiles, “He says that she’s back in the castle. He was shocked when she returned later on that night. She also wants to meet you girls.”
I lean over to my lovely husband, “I assume that you’ve already met her.”
My husband gives me a guilty look, “She’s the one, who talked me into becoming your bodyguard this past summer. I’m so glad that I took her advice. She’s a lovely vampire princess. I’m sure you two will corrupt her soon enough.”
We are giggling. Gabriel winks at us, and he faces Ember, “On that note... are you ready to go home?”
She places her arms around his neck, “I’m ready when you are.”
He nods to us, and then he snaps his fingers. They leave in a flash. Joey takes off his jacket, and his Rolex. I help him out of his cufflinks. After untying his tie, he leans in to kiss me.
“I know we are going through an adjustment phase, but I love you, baby.”
“I start school on Monday, just to remind you.”
“I never want you to go. I might just keep you in this bedroom with me, and make love to you instead.”
I rip off his shirt, and head straight for his chest. He lets out a steady moan. He pulls my hair back, “Damn you, Rosalie! You excite me.”
The clothes that he normally never wears hit the floor quickly. I make him lay on the bed with me. Without a second thought, I straddle him and he snaps my pajamas off. I stare into his crystal eyes, and shift my body up and down on his man wand. I steady myself by holding his hands.
Tonight, we’re going to make love to each other instead. I move my hips nice and slow on him. His lips curves up, and his eyes are focusing deep inside mine. We become lost in each other. He lets me stay on top of him for a couple of hours. He moves his hands to my breasts, and back to my hips. He pours his hot cum deep inside of me. We shift back on the bed, and he kisses my eyelids. He moves his man wand slowly back inside me. His blonde hair falls over me, and we hold each other tightly. My legs grip his hips tightly, and we keep our focus with pleasing each other. His lips press on my belly. He leads a trail of sweet kisses up and down my body. He sucks my nipples to arouse my body once more for all his love. We make love until the next morning. I lay my head on his chest, after we finish our last set of spine-tingling orgasms.
He never stops telling me how much he loves me, “I love you, Rosalie.”
His fingers trail up and down my spine as he holds me close to him.
I prop myself on his chest, “I love you too, Joey. I often worry about our baby though. When I think about Jeannie's situation it scares me.”
He glances softly into my eyes, “I know that our baby is okay. I believe it is okay to worry, but my soul says that our baby is just fine. I know you’re nervous, and I am too. If anything should happen, we need to lean on each other. We will be heartbroken, but we are still able to make more babies. Please don’t think of me as insensitive. I want this baby badly too. We can leave it in the hands of our Creator. I still feel that our baby is okay though. Jeannie faced terrible and unusual circumstances. She was kidnapped, and she was nearly tortured to death. She also had to fight her sister, who also wants her dead.”
“Why would her sister want her dead?”
“That is a long story, but Khan kidnapped her sister, and he turned her into a vampire. She has no choice, but to do whatever her maker commands her to do. He made her try to kill Jeannie. We were able to save Jeannie, but she was kicked in the stomach so many times. Given the fact that she’s part mortal, she lost their baby, and she still feels guilty about it. Christian went ahead, and had the doctor perform a d&c. It nearly killed him to allow it, but if not, she would have died.”
I toy with his nipple ring with my lips, “Wouldn’t her vampire side have saved her though?”
“Christian wasn't willing to risk it. He wants her to stay somewhat human. She has to drink blood to maintain her vampire side. He keeps up with her diet, and he takes great care of her too. He has never loved anyone, since his mortal wife. Jeannie does bear a strong resemblance to his dead wife Victoria, from what Alexander has told me. He does love Jeannie, but apparently Christian even admits that Jeannie bears an uncanny resemblance to his dead wife.”
“That’s insane! I don’t resemble any of your exes, do I?”
“You are in a class all by yourself. I don’t see anyone coming anywhere close to you.”
I gently kiss his soft lips again. I’m so thankful that he left the piercings out of his face. I love the fact that he left the ones in his tongue though. Those piercings come in quite handy. I sit on him and make him go again.
~~~***~~~
We sleep in, and no longer have the need to rush either. He makes me breakfast in bed, “I hope I’m able to serve my mom justice.”
I kiss him as he sets the breakfast tray over my lap. I’m fine until he releases the cover. I smell bacon, and that does me in. I jump out of bed, and I forget to snap my fingers. I struggle to make it to the toilet.
He is concerned, “I hope it’s not my cooking that’s making you sick!”
I gasp and throw up again. I manage to stop after five minutes of violent vomiting, “I think I’m having horrible morning sickness. I need elixir badly, because I forgot to drink a few vials.”
“I told you not to do that… oh, Rosalie!”
He places a cool washcloth on the back of my neck, and he’s getting ready to give me another one of his famous lectures, “You have to remember, Rosalie… that’s okay though. I’m here to help you, even while you’re throwing up.”
I stop long enough to drink the vials of elixir from Avalon to keep me in check.
/> He holds me, and he wipes my mouth off, “I have a feeling that our baby will continue to kick your ass, Rosalie.”
“I think she’s making her debut, and making it known.”
“She? Do you believe we’re having a girl? I really hope we’re having a boy. What makes you so sure that we’re having a girl?”
“The morning sickness comes from old wives tales, and the talks from mortal women. They say that if you puke more than normal, then you’re having a girl.”
He holds me close to him laughing, “I, no longer think that’s a credible source of information. I have friends over the years, who threw up violently, and they still gave birth to boys. But, that does sound nice.”
“I hope it’s true, because your mom has been praying to have a girl grandchild.”
“I’m sure she would love to have a granddaughter to spoil. Speaking of my mom, she will be here for a visit soon. She’s very worried about her daughter-in-law. She might have a remedy for your terrible morning sickness too.”
I give him a puppy dog look, “I’m sorry, but it’s the smell of bacon that makes me sick.”
He eats the strips of bacon for me, and he hands my plate back. I ate his whole wheat with blueberry pancakes, fruit, waffles, eggs, and fresh maple syrup. I eat everything he made me. I’m starting to feel a whole lot better, and he relaxes for a change.
I take a shower, and fix myself the best way that I can. The canary dresses are my usual attire.
I greet Violet at the door, and she places her hand on my belly, “How are you feeling, Rosalie?”
“I’m having horrible morning sickness, and I struggle to shake this morning sickness too.”
“Never fear, and say no more dear! I have the perfect remedy for your morning sickness. I’m giving you my own secret concoction, and you will feel better in no time.”
I watch the mad scientist go to work. Violet continues to gush, “My baby is having a baby of his own! I’m such a lucky grandmother to be! I’m also excited for my grandson, who will be here soon. I’m also excited to find out what this little one is. I want to know, what he or she is going to be! But, your aunt feels so guilty that she was never there for Rosebud.”
