The Vampire Prince And Me. Chapter Thirty-Two.
"Maybe you should just put on some lingerie and seduce him.", Kayla suggested and giggled.
"I think he'll just think Dorinda is some avskum.", Cain said and we looked at him confused. "It's like scum, cheap, whorish. It's Solanaceae.",
"Oh.", we both said.
"Well personally, I think I'm done wearing skimpy cloths for a while.", I said.
We were out in the garden and I told them about two nights ago and yesterday. It was hard to go that party last night alone and have to have Xavienna around. Don't get me wrong, I like her, but it felt weird to just have someone behind me all the time. I let her sleep in though since there was a time difference between the Shadow Coven and Gardenia of being five hours away from each other.
And all those mothers were so annoyinglast night since most of them were the rich governors wives and all they like to do is gossip and kept bugging me about Lucas and how we are. It's like they wouldn't get off my back no matter how hard I ask.
Naomi started fussing and her crying came alive. I'm just happy Eli decided not to join his sister as I picked her up from the bassinet and bounced her.
I heard with my good hearing the doors from inside opening and I looked at Cain. He nodded and moved to the seat next to me. He leaned real close to me and smiled down at Naomi. We started gushing at her and he took her small hand in his as the slid door to the back yard open.
We looked up and I saw Lucas there. His nose scrunched up, but quickly dropped it to cover up his jealous look. Cain took Naomi from me and started playing with her. I saw Lucas roll his eyes as he walked over to us, "I have to inform you that my father and mother are coming over.",
"Okay.", I said. "Lucas, you remember Kayla and Cain.",
He nod towards Kayla and scowled Cain, but nodded to and Cain just grinned back him before he leaned back in the chair and lifted Naomi in the air, making her giggle, her arms out reaching for his face. I couldn't help but smile from adorableness toward her. I reached and tickled her belly, making her giggle more.
I can see it now, she's going to be calling Cain uncle in the future, him being her favorite uncle.
Cain held her up now with one handand I leaned forward to grab her, but he held his other hand up, "I got her, D, don't worry. She's a light as a feather.",
I gave an uncomfortable look, "Okaaay.", I said slowly, unsure though.
He brought her down ontop his chest and she giggled again, rubbing her head on his chest, "Yeah, I know, I'm warm.",
I giggled and touched her hair, "One big teddy bear to her.",
Kayla giggled to, "Aw, that's just so adorable! Cain, who knew you were so good with babies?",
He chuckled, "What can I say? I'm adorable.",
Kayla and I looked at each other and smacked out teeth and rolled our eyes.
Suddenly, I heard a booming sound and our heads snapped towards Lucas. He was looking shockingly at the wall he just broke a hole through. I held back my amused look and pressed my lips together to held back the grin.
"Apologies.", he said. I brought my hand up to my mouth as I leaned on the table and smiled behind it. He leaned across me and took Naomi from Cain chest. He sat down at the seat next to me and brought her up to face level and she looked at him eye wide, "Lord, you are light as a feather.", he said. He looked at me and I moved my hand to let him see my smile.
This was the first he actually really held her at home. I couldn't wait for him to hold Eli again. What I was looking at was beautiful and brought me a little more peace.
He brought her forehead to his lips and kissed the top of it, "Daddy here.", he whispered and my heart squeezed up. I looked at Kayla and she smiled proudly at him. She touched his cheek and nose and smiled, her teal eyes lighten up.
Even though the past couple of day have been total hell, I was happy to watch this. To see Lucas holding his baby again made me feel better and had more hope.
He raised her in the air a little like Cain did and she giggled. I smiled and leaned over to Lucas. She waved her arms out and Lucas brought her in to kiss her cheek. She giggled more, but cut herself off when she stared at him for a second then looked uneasy.
"Oh no, Naomi, wait-", but it was to later, she puked on his white shirt. Kayla spit out her glass of blood and Cain fell back on his chair since he was leaning on and they broke out into heavy laughter. I felt bad since I joined them since it was funny as heck.
Lucas looked down at his in blood stain shirt in disgust, "Damnit-"
"Move her!", I yelled when she had that uneasy look again and I moved away from his shirt, but when she puke up, some of it hit his arm. The laughter became lauder and Eli started crying. I started laughing like a maniac and he gave me a disbelief look, "I'm sorry, Lucas.", I said as my laughing turned to giggles.
As he opened his mouth, the door opened again and King Luka and Queen Arabella walked out. They looked at us confused and Lucas got up, holding Naomi out for me to take. I took her and when he turned around, King Luka broke out into laughter and Queen Arabella brought her fingertip ups to her lips as she smiled, amusement written on her face.
Lucas scowled them, "I am going to go change my shirt now.",
As he walked pass them, King Luka said, "Pay back when you did that to me.",
"Sorry Lucas!", I called out as I giggled more. I laid Naomi down on my arm and cleaned around her mouth, "That was very mean to do to daddy, Naomi.", I said in a baby like voice down to her. "You better be a good girl to him for now.", I said and after I was done cleaning around her mouth, I lifted her up and kissed her cheeks.
"I see Lucas is being around you more.", Queen Arabella said as she walked over to us, srunching her nose up when she noticed Naomi threw up on the floor.
"I'll get someone to clean that up.", Kayla said as she got up and left.
"Damn, I really wish I had my phone for that.", Cain said as he got up. "Would have been perfect blackmail.",
"You would blackmail my son?", King Luka asked and Cain nodded. He shrugged, "Eh, just as long as I get a copy of that video.",
Queen Arabella placed the car seat of Ariana on the table and picked Eli up, bouncing him to calm his crying. She picked up his bottle and started feeding him, "Luka has much room to be talking about. Lucas and Ariana threw up on him non-stop before.",
King Luka nose scrunched up, "Lets no relieve the past, dear.", he said, kissing her cheek, taking Kayla seat.

I looked down at my silk blue dress that stop mid-way at thighs and my white slippers. In one hand was a bottle of vodka and I'm hoping to get Lucas so drunk, he'll kiss me again. I don't plan to drink it, but I am for him. I sensed he was in his new studies and I knocked on the door.
"Come in.", he called.
I opened the door and leaned against the frame. He took one look at me and the pen in his hand dropped. He quickly looked down at and picked it back up. I chuckled, "Is this princess-y enough for you?",
"U-uh-I mean, yeah.", he said, looking away. He looked back at me a moment later, "What's wrong? It's a eleven o'clock at night.",
I shrugged, "Thought we go walking around. I havent back out in the woods and just talk. I have something to drink if we get thirsty.", I said, raising the bottle up.
"I'm good.", he said, giving me a quick smile.
I forced my smile to stay up, trying to think of something fast to come up with. I gave him a puppy dog look and turned around and as I started walking, I said, "Okay, just thought you like to get out of the palace for a minutes. I guess I'll go by myself-"
"Wait!", I heard him say and I quickly grinned before I dropped it and turned around. I gave him a questionable look and he walked out of his studies, "I can't just let a lady walk around the woods alone.", he grinned as he walked up to me.
"True.", I said. "Wouldn't it be consider rude to turn down an offer anyways?",
He nodded, "Yes. But no funny business.", he said, raising his index finger up.
I smiled, crossing an X over my chest, "Cross my heart and hope to die.",
He chuckle, "That's a funny phrase.", he said as we continued down the hall.
When we were outside, I walked quickly walked over to the fountain and climb on top of it, walking on the ledge.
"Be careful or you'll fall.", Lucas said, grinning up at me. "I don't want to go in and have to save you.",
I chuckled, "Me? Fall in? I'm not a klutz and I don't need you to save me from a two feet deep fountain.",
"Well, you wouldn't want to ruin expensive silk, would you?", he asked, touching the button of my dress. I felt his knuckles lightly touch my thigh. I bit my lower lip and looked ahead and jumped off the fountain legend when we got to the end and made our way into the woods.
As we walked, I held out the bottle of vodka. He hesitated, but took it.
He opened it and brought it up to his mouth, but stopped, making me stop with him, "I'll drink it if you'll drink with me.", he said, looking down at me.
"Uh, I can't.", I came up with. "You know, it's unlady like to drink and get drunk.",
He snorted and leaned down to me, "This isn't 1830.", he mocked me and I rolled my eyes. Deciding to do it just so he'll do it, I took it and took a sip. He chuckled and took a long sip. We continued walking for a few moments, "So, did you bring me out here to try and seduce me?", he asked.
I looked at him and raised an eyebrow, "No.",
"Really?", he asked, looking down at me. "So what's with the short dress?",
"I can't look pretty without having a meaning to? Maybe I just want to go to bed in this and look pretty while doing it.", I said and he snorted. I chukled, "Okay, you got me. But no, I wasn't trying to seduce you. More like get you drunk and get you to kiss me again at least.",
He took another long sip and sighed, me ready to hear him say no and not again. "Well, our daughter did throw up on me, so I guess I deserve one.", he said and we stopped. I froze and looked up at him in shock. One for saying 'our' and second for saying he will kiss me. He grinned and held the bottle out, "But first--how does this generation say it? Lets get wasted and fucked up first.",
I couldn't help but chuckle at that since it was funny coming from him. I hesitated, but took the bottle. We continued walking and when we were almost finish when the bottle, we came across a lake. I admired the way the moon shone down on the water and I couldn't help but giggle, "The water looks perfect.",
"Eh, it's alright.", he said and I rolled my eyes up at him.
"I wanna go in.", I said, walking towards it, but he grabbed my arm, bring me back. I looked up at him confused, "What?",
"Maybe that isn't such a good idea.", he said.
"Why?", I asked.
"Good silk isn't worth ruing for a late night swim.", he said and I thought for a moment, then knew he was right. I nodded and sat down on the grass. I ran my hand down my face, "Thank the Lord vamps cant have hangovers in the morning.",
He sat down next to me, "Yeah. I feel numb right now and I'm happy for it. These last couple of days felt like being damned.",
I nodded, "I know what you mean. Trying to make you fall in love with me again is so hard. I didn't have to do much the first since I already had your attention. I was a crappy slave and you didn't get rid of me when I was bitching like this girl name Zoey said would happen if I disobey my master.",
He chuckled, "Ah, the old days. They were horrible I heard. I was born in the eighteen century so not much murder happen since it was starting to die down and people became more level headed.". just looked up at the moon and sighed. I looked back onto the gross and watched the moon. "What are you thinking about?", Lucas asked. "I don't want to read yor mind."
"I don't know really.", I admitted. "I'm thinking a lot. I'm thinking about my babies and how they're going to grow up. Will they both play a sport or decided to rebel against us or something? How we're going to be in the future. And the fact that I haven't gotten laid in three months.",
He chuckled, "That sucks.",
"Hey, you haven't got laid either.", I said, smacking his arm to shut up.
"But I'm not saying it out loud.", he said and I couldn't help but admit to that. I sighed and placed my hands over my stomach as I looked back up at the moon.
A minute later, Lucas spoke, "I'll take my kiss now.",
I chuckled once, "You can't just tell me to kiss you. It has to be...romantic.",
"Hey, I put the man in romance.", he said and I broke out into giggles. He joined by chuckled and looked up at him. He was smiling down at me and I couldn't help but smile wide up at him.
I hesitated, but ask, "Do you love me, Lucas?",
He didn't respond so quickly back and his smile lowered. He looked back up at the sky, "I-I don't know. I'm sure when I remembered everything, I did very much. I can understand why. You treat me just like everyone else, not as Prince Lucas, hire to the throne. Your stubborn, but kind and understanding at the same time. I feel like I can talk to you about anything and everything. Your not afraid to let what your thinking out and you can be yourself.",
"But?", I asked.
He waited a second again, "I don't really think there is a but to it. Maybe I'm being the stubborn one and just afraid to get hurt again like when you said when I thought Savanna was dead. You told me I was depressed and I guess I just don't want to be hurt like that again. What I'm really trying to say is I don't want to be disappointed again.",
"Disappointment comes with life, Lucas.", I told him. "Some people are going to make you happy and others are going to make you hate them. It's life and it is what it is. What you shouldn't push me away and let go of what we had because you scared.",
He humorlessly chuckled, "Scared? I'm not scared.",
"Don't put on the male pride role.", I told him. "I know you are, but don't worry, I'm scared also. I don't want to lose you by you making me feel unwanted and unloved. I gave up my life for you and willing to give up everything for you because I loved you and you loved me back.",
He dropped his head, "Please, don't make me feel guilty.",
"That's not what I'm doing, I'm telling you what I did for love and you.", I said and leaned back up. "You once told me I was the only thing you got right and that I was all you wanted and needed. I don't think that disappointment.",
He looked up at me and his green eyes met mine, "I guess I shouldn't let what I have pass by like it meant nothing to me.",
I nodded, "Yeah. You have a wife and kids that need you. When you were holding Naomi, I felt so much happiness to see her in your arms. I found it to be a really beautiful sight--until you know, she threw up on you. And I really need you there when they're crying. It's so hard and I want their dad to be there to help.", I said, chuckling and he joined.
A moment later, he stopped, "I guess I can try to get use to this generation while my memory gone. I was planning on staying away from you until it came back so it would be less hurt to you, but you just made it so difficult since your so stubborn.",
"Your stubborn to, you know.", I said and he chuckled again.
"I guess that what makes up perfect for each other.", he said.
"No," I said and he looked at me confused. I smiled, "There's a lot reasons. We're also different, which Is good. If we were ecstatically the same, things would be so boring.",
I leaned on him a little and he put his arm around my waist, bring me closer to him until we were touching. He put his hand under my chin to lift my face and kissed me. I moved my hand behind his neck as I kissed him back as he laid me back down on my back.

"I may not be fully you husband, but you should be lucky my body remain the same.", Lucas said and I rolled my eyes.
I moved my fingers on his bar chest like they were walking, "You'll be back to normal soon, Lucas. It takes months, not years.",
"What if--and I'm saying if, I don't regain my memories, what then?", he asked and I froze.
"Then," I said, taking a moment. "We'll have to make new ones.",
"Like get remarried and have more children?", he asked and I chuckled.
"No, I mean, just continue with our lives. Just as long as you know your not twenty-six anymore and this isn't eighteen thirty. You're a two hundred and four years old and it's two thousand and eleven.", I told him. "You wont have to worry about that, though. You'll be you again soon.",
He nodded, "Okay.". I adjusted myself next to him. We were in the room I was staying in, but now that I got Lucas as much I can, I'll be able to move in room that's suppose to for the both of us. I haven't even gotten the chance to look inside, only ever walk pass it.
"Wahh! Wahh!", came from the baby monitor. I moved away from Lucas and grabbed it.
I sighed heavily, "Well, it looks like the children woke up.", I said. I grabbed this remote things that's also like a phone, but you can only text on it. I wrote to Romy who has one in her not to worry about and she can go back to sleep. She asked me if was sure and I said yeah.
I grabbed my rob and wrapped it around my body. I threw Lucas pants to him and he sighed, but got up.
"So this is the noise I been hearing at night?", Lucas asked as he held Eli on his chest as he patted his back as he paced around, freaking out. "Lord, he wont stop crying!",
"Stop pacing and hold him in your arms.", I told him and he did. "Now, see if he's hungry again. If he isn't, give him the pacifier.",
Lucas grabbed the bottle and like in the hospital, he had a hard time getting Eli to put it in his mouth, but he got it soon. Eli took a few sips before moving it out his mouth and Lucas groaned. He threw the bottle behind his shoulder and grabbed the blue pacifier.
To his surprise, Eli quickly stopped once it was in his mouth and sucked on it. Lucas took a deep breath in relief and came over to the rocking chair next to me. He scowled me when I started giggling, "What?", he asked.
I shook my head, "Nothing, nothing. It's just, I was the same way. I thought I was doing everything wrong at first. You'll be surprise how quickly it is to learn, but hard to keep up on.",
"Babies are so hard to take care of.", he said, whining pretty much.
"Hey, you wanted children.", I told him. "I gave you what you wanted, now you have to help take care of them.",
"Was I drunk when I said that?", he asked and I chuckled more.
"No.", I told him. "You really wanted children-a family. You wanted a family badly.",
"Oh.", he said. "Well next time I hold her," he said, pointing at Naomi. "Please tell me if she just got done drinking first.",
"I will.", I said, giggling at what she did to him yesterday morning.
Naomi started to look a little sleepy so I moved her onto my chest and lightly pattered her back. Minutes later, she fell asleep on my chest. I smiled and slowly raised from the chair. I held her head and body as I placed her in the crib.
I turned around and walked over to Lucas. I looked down at Eli and saw he had lazy eyes to, telling me he was about to pass out. I rubbed his head and smiled, "See, he's calm. Dad little man.",
Lucas softly chuckled, "Yeah. He'll be just like me.",
"Well, hopefully not to much. We don't want girls going around as his slave.", I said, chuckling.
"I wonder what was going threw my head at the time.", he said.
"You wanted something and thought the only way you could have me close was to do that.", I told him. "You told me this, though I wonder why you couldn't just keep me there, not making me doing your dirty cloths.",
He chuckled and once Eli closed his eyes, I took him and placed him in his crib. When I turned around, I was surprise by Lucas putting his hands on each side of my face and kiss me. I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck.
