“The woman named Natasha Novgorod is carrying the Master’s baby from the mating. She’s married to a male Builder named Madisoni Novgorod who doesn’t share her beliefs in the Master but respects her and her beliefs.” Jinks frowns hearing that as Gustav adds “Natasha’s husband is being searched for to inform him of Natasha’s situation.” hears the butler continue “There’s a chance that Madisoni may refuse to raise the child the Master fathered through Natasha because of Builder beliefs I thinks Madisoni may have. The beliefs involve children fathered by another male through their female states that the male fathering the child is the one who raises the child with no assistance from the female that bore it or her mate a male Builder.”
Jinks feels shocked hearing that goes to the armchair to sit staring at the floor eyes open till he feels himself needing to sleep shuts his eyes passing out unconscious and then dreams of Lance who in an insisting tone tells Jinks “Your raising the child as a single parent till the time arrives for you to have a mate once your ready.”
Jinks groans loudly Lance speaks “Raising the child will give you a purpose in life to look forward to doing something than just eating and sleeping while living in the penthouse suffering boredom. Natasha will respect her husband’s beliefs and not help you with raising the child she carried.”
Jinks again groan loudly as Lance puts a hand on his forehead rubbing the area while saying “The child raising will give you a purpose in life to do something while you recovers from your grief.”
Jinks frowns as Lance’s hand forces his eyes shut and he comes to feeling a hand touching his arm tapping it.
Jinks jerks his eyes open to see Gustav who straightens his form and gestures to a male standing next to him with long black hair and golden eyes saying “This is Madisoni Novgorod, Natasha’s husband. Natasha is indicating its time for the baby to be born.”
Jinks forces himself to stand up eying Madisoni warily seeing that the Builder has some angry look on his face which he turns his attention towards Natasha on the bed whose abdomen is swollen with child. He eyes Natasha who appears to be out unconscious as paramedic bents her legs putting hands between them.
He watches eyeing Natasha as he hears a baby’s cry and hears the paramedic comment “The baby is a girl!” and watches them put her in a cart he recognizes as a baby scanner machine.
He frowns as hears a male voice saying “The Master is raising the baby girl himself with no help from me or my wife Natasha I names.”
Jinks grimaces inwardly figuring out that Madisoni spoke those words doesn’t acknowledge the words keeps his mouth shut as the paramedics put Natasha on a stretcher and two carry her out of the room underneath his watching eyes.
He eyes Madisoni following behind and turns to the cart to see a paramedic standing over it saying “The girl child is doing ok with no health problems detected.”
Jinks watches as the paramedic lifts the baby out of the cart to the bed to put on a diaper followed by some clothes and a blanket and a cap on the baby’s head before lifting the baby up and carrying her towards him which he finds himself compelled to hold the baby holds her. He stares at the baby to see her eyes open showing blue eyes then close them to scrunch up her face while giving off a wail noise he recognizes that the baby is hungry looks at Gustav with pleading on his face.
Gustav to his annoyance speaks “The baby is Master’s responsibility. There’s nourishment for the baby in Master’s bedroom in a specialized fridge along with a crib and other baby care items in the bedroom too.”
Jinks groan softly as his daughter keeps giving off her wailing noises and sees that Gustav is serious by his words judging by the expression on the butler’s face. Jinks leaves the bedroom to his bedroom going inside to spot a crib between the wings back chairs and finds the boxy fridge next to the bedroom door in front of a wall. Jinks opens to see rows of milk bottles which he takes out one and goes to a wing back chair to sit which he puts the bottle’s nipple in the baby’s mouth who greedily sucks it drinking the milk from within the bottle.
He stares at the baby and thinks to himself “I wonder what I’m going to name her.” and hears Lance’s voice sounding in his mind saying “Just to call the baby Victoria Katherine Montreal.” which he finds himself agreeing with the names.
He eyes Victoria that has her eyes open with some content look in them as she sucks the bottle’s nipple while getting her meal from it.
Jinks eyes Victoria who once finished with the bottle after sucking all the contents up smiles a smile that makes him think “She’s cute with that smile.”
He puts the bottle on a table next to the chair and lifts up Victoria to pat her on the back while listening for her to burp. He hears a burp noise from the baby puts her back in the crook of his arm to sit leaning back staring at her as he sees that she’s fallen asleep. He gently gets up and places the baby in the crib then feels himself tired eyes the clock that shows the time of ten o’clock in the evening goes into the bathroom to change his clothes taking off shoes into pajamas then walks out to hit the bed which he gets in on his side and falls asleep passing out unconscious.
Jinks comes to hearing the alarm sounding its noises wakes up to glare at the clock seeing it says two o’clock in the morning to see a Charon remove his hand from the clock shutting off the alarm then point to the crib which he hears Victoria wailing her hungry cry again. He gets up going to the fridge to grab a milk bottle and goes to the crib to lift the baby up and sits in the wing back chair as he gives her the bottle and watches the baby have her meal then makes her burp again. He eyes the bedroom doors to feel compelled to go out of the bedroom puts the baby in the crib then walks to the doors to hear a faint roaring noise. Jinks yanks open the door to spot Charon lying on the floor and standing among them is a Drainer he recognizes as Hades which he walks out to meet the Drainer that is standing in the hallway. He reaches Hades while willing the Master through to narrow his eyes at the Drainer who appears to take off his face showing a Human like face and that his face is a mask which the drainer tears into two and sees the mask part fall apart as the drainer hits the floor going unconscious. He wills the Master away as he eyes Hades who shakes his form and sees the clothes shred off the form showing a female form.
She’s wearing a white dress that makes him think “Dress is a nightgown.” and eyes the female which he sees her face seems familiar but he can’t place it.
He lifts her up and carries the female into his bedroom while kicking closed the door behind him. He lays her on the bed and feels her face to get a memory of meeting a descendant named Jinnee in a plane which he realizes that the female is her. He recalls the meeting as thirty seven years ago fresh in his mind as he sees Jinnee shake her head and jerks open her eyes with shock in them. He sees that she can’t see him because of the room isn’t bright enough goes to a lamp on a dresser next to the bed and turns it on then stares at Jinnee who sees him with recognition in her eyes.
Jinks frown as Jinnee speaks “Jinks Montreal.” which he nods his head while staring at her as his senses blare telling him that Jinnee spoke with a tone that made it seem like she’s old.
He stares at Jinnee to see her face is lined with wrinkles and sees the same with her hands which tells him that she’s old.
He frowns as he goes to the bed to grip her hand as she speaks “I was nearing the end of my life realizing that I’ll die. I was visiting a Human paradise island to die on and wandered out of the house at night time to walk on the beach. I heard a groan noise went to investigate and met Hades lying on the beach acting sick. I couldn’t do much for the Drainer who knocked me onto my seat and then took off his face putting it on me. I became Hades the next day with no memory of my life fresh in my mind. I as Hades only recalled why Hades was on the beach because he was globe traveling in the air over the ocean and ran into a rain storm that filled the globe with water. Hades had to put away the globe and fell into the ocean which the stormy conditions made it hard for him to swim. He was hit
ting rocks that wrecked him up till he could reach the beach for safety. His reason for putting on the mask on me was the body form was dying and Hades needed a body to survive. I wound up as Hades and didn’t remember much about my life.”
Jinnee kept talking “I recently heard about Jinks being the Master. I felt a compulsion to meet Jinks as Hades went to his building. I got through the guards and ghost people guarding him. I met Jinks and suddenly remembered who I was which I yanked off the mask tearing it apart to destroy Hades off of me.”
“I distantly recalled a memory of that Hades mask put onto Jinks’ face despite Jinks not acknowledging that memory. It’s very odd to me that he wasn’t acknowledging that memory.”
Jinks gently gripped her hand as she paused to cough violently.
He frowned seeing her cough speaks “I’ll get the doctor.” but sees her shake her head in a no gesture while speaking “I was dying of a breathing ailment before meeting Hades.”
He frowns staring at Jinnee as she continues to cough her coughing getting more violent. Jinks finds his hand peeled off her hand and pulled from the bed by Charon like hands and restrained which he keeps his eyes on Jinnee who closes her eyes while
