I stand in front of Killian splattered in blood smiling. He stands right behind me with his arms crossed and chest puffed up with everyone dumbfounded. Killian may be an asshole at times and has put me through shit, but he is my mate. He can also spend the rest of his life kissing my ass!
“How did you guys set this up? When did you set this up?”
Rikar keeps look between us for someone to answer him. I looked over my shoulder at Killian when he nodded, smiling.
“We knew if we had let anyone in on our secret plan it wouldn’t work, and someone would have blown it.”
“Except you guys rejected each other, and you marked Lucifer. Hell, he even marked you!”
“Ok so when we rejected each other we didn’t use our full names. So we never broke the bond. We played it off well though! I say it was pretty convincing. For Lucifer while I was packing in my closet I got into my makeup and decided to play a little bit.”
I placed my hand where Lucifer’s mark is and took off a piece of fake silicone skin with the makeup surrounding it. I smile and show my false fangs dropping them out of my mouth to show my normal teeth. Why I kept this stupid stuff around I don’t know, but I did and thank the goddess for that!
“See I made it look like I was willing to go through with the marking because I wasn’t going to really get marked. You can convince anyone something is happening if you can fake it well enough. I just needed to get close enough to him to kill him.
“How did you know he would have a dagger that was poisoned?”
“We didn’t! Except there was always a back up plan!”
I reach behind my back and pull out a silver tipped knife that’s been hidden just in case. Everyone just stands there in shock when Rikar starts laughing, slapping his knees.
“Are you serious! This was all just an act! I seriously thought I was going to lose you again! Oh my I just can’t! I think we all need drinks right now!”
Everyone starts to head inside when I turn to look at Killian. He just looks down smiling.
“Oh don’t think this is the end, jackass! We still have a lot of work to do! Just because you went along with the plan doesn’t cancel out everything beforehand!”
“I know it doesn’t, but can I at least get a gold star or some shit!”
“Maybe half of one!”
“Well it’s at least a start! Let’s go inside and get a beer! I’m sure everyone needs a moment to digest everything that’s happened. Nice touch with the makeup, it did look convincing although why did the demons listen to you if you didn’t mate with Lucifer?”
“They don’t know that! They saw what happened, and aren’t going to question it. I think for good measure though we are going to have Hades take his spot.”
“Ok so then what do we do with the three guards?”
Oh shit I forgot about them! I look up and they are all standing there still in their shackles. I walk towards them when they just stare down at me.
“Now what to do with you three? We can send you back with Hades or you can prove yourself to be guards up here. If you get out of line though there will be no other chance and you will go with Hades. Do I make myself clear? Do not think for one second this erases what you allowed to happen on your territory without notifying anyone!”
They all quickly nod their heads when the shackles are taken off, and they are led towards the palace. We walk behind them when we slowly make our way into the palace. We see everyone celebrating, and can see the three guards are clearly uneasy. I know they will adjust slowly, but also know they are going to be watched like a hawk. I see Rikar stand straight up when his eyes glaze over.
“Mom! Dad! Cora’s having the baby! We gotta go now!”
We quickly hand off our beers and run after Rikar running towards the medical unit. We have been so busy I can’t believe the day is already here, but isn’t it too early? My brain is going at a hundred miles an hour when we burst in and Rikar is quickly ushered into the room. I pace back and forth waiting for some kind of sign. Killian sits down and motions for me to do the same but I’m so nervous so how can I? After what seems like hours we hear a baby cry and I just cover my mouth looking at Killian. Our first grand pup! Oh only if Hassan was here he would be so happy to become a great grandfather and see the throne is where it should be.
Soon the door opens and Rikar comes out holding a little bundle, and I guess we were a little early, but he looks to be just fine. The moment I look down I can’t help but thank the Goddess he looks like Cora! Not that I don’t love my son, but he looks like Matecor enough. It will be nice to have a change around here. Killian stands up behind me placing a hand on my waist when he looks over my shoulder at our newest addition. Goddess from where we have been to where we are now it has been a long long road. Rikar smiles and heads back to see mom when Killian spins me around crashing his lips onto mine. I lean back to look at him and just smile.
“You know what we have to figure out is if we are ready to be called grandma and grandpa yet. I don’t know if I am ready yet.”
“Neither am I! Maybe we should take a vacation to decide on what to do about it! No beaches though I need some time away from there!”
Fine anywhere you want to go is fine with me!”
“Ok how about the mountains! Just you and me in a little cottage?”
I just look up at him when he smiles down at me. Why have I put up with all of his shit? It’s because of that! That smile!
