I tossed on the bed, groaning at the sharp pain in my shoulders and lower abdomen. Yesterday had been a kind of adventure, but I was paying dearly for it at the moment. After I slept off, I woke up late at night to discover I was still joined with my mates. It was the most painful thing ever, and when I finally succumbed to another round of slumber, I couldn’t be more grateful for the reprieve.
Waking up now felt like hell. My lower abdomen hurts. I couldn’t even feel my legs. And let’s not forget the throbbing pain in my shoulders.
I perked my eyes open, expecting to see my mates, only to discover I was alone on the vast bed. Sobbing, I closed my eyes once more, willing myself to return to sleep, believing the pain would disappear by the time I opened my eyes again. Sleep eluded me. Having slept for over 10 hours, my eyes were reluctant to visit the land of slumber again.
Sighing, I sank my face into the pillow, mourning my faith. Lying with my face down, the only discomfort I felt was the one in my lower abdomen. Luckily, my shoulders didn’t hurt that much because of the position.
The soft rustling of the curtains as the wind blew on them caused me to sigh. Though it was still morning, I could tell it might rain today. The breeze caressing my skin was enough testament to that.
‘Are you awake, darling?’
Startled, I almost fell to the ground when I heard the voice. Luckily, I wasn’t that close to the edge of the bed. Else, that would have happened.
Blinking, I turned, expecting to see Fred, but I didn’t. I was still alone in the room, with the rustling trees outside and my curtains swaying to the wind, to keep me company.
‘Looking for him?’ Blue’s amused voice caused me to narrow my eyes.
I sat up on the bed, wincing at the sharp pain that threatened to send me crashing back to the bed. “Do you guys think playing with me is funny??!” I gritted out, searching for them.
Though their voices sounded dim, like they were talking in my head, I couldn’t….. Wait a damned minute, in my head!!!
‘She finally figured out we were speaking in her mind,’ Fred chuckled. ‘How are you, darling?’
I blinked, trying to tell myself I wasn’t imagining it. My mates were freaking speaking in my mind!
‘Yeah, we are.’
Before I could ask them questions, the door opened, and they stepped in, grinning from ear to ear. They were naked from the abdomen up, and the slacks they wore hung low in their waist, showing off the V trail, that led to one of my favourite parts of their body. I swallowed, feeling hot despite the ache between my legs. I was tempted to slap myself for the stupid thoughts I had while watching them.
“Good morning, sleeping beauty,” Fred smirked, approaching the bed with a tray if food. “How was your night? We hope you had sufficient rest?” He smirked, his brows lifting suggestively.
“Bastard!” I cussed, muttering under my breath as I watched them.
“Come on. You know you love us.” Blue grinned as he plopped down on the bed. Unlike Fred, who was taking his time, Blue didn’t mind using his vampire speed to get to my side. “Are you feeling hurt anywhere?” He asked, his gaze taking me in. It wasn’t until I noticed how his eyes lingered on my nipples that I realized I was freaking exposed!
“Fuck you!” I glared at them as I hastily covered my body with my blanket. “Why didn’t you tell me I was naked???”
“Because you looked yummy, sitting on the bed with your pink nipples exposed.” Fred put the tray on the bed. “We made breakfast for you. Do you want to have your bath first or …” He trailed off, lifting his brows as he waited for my response.
“I will eat first.”
I didn’t get to eat last night because of what we did. I was to blame.
Nodding, Fred placed the food on my thighs and sat down, watching me. “Are you feeling any pain?” He sounded concerned as his gaze took me in once more. Though I covered my body with the blanket, the way he looked at me made it seem like I was freaking naked.
“I can’t feel my legs,” I muttered, feeling the flush go up from my neck to my red cheeks. I didn’t want to tell them of the discomfort at first, but I figured it wouldn’t make any sense to keep it from them. They will discover it even without me telling them about it.
“Oh.” Nodding, they exchanged glances.
“I have the right medicine here for you.” Blue smiled as he placed a blue pill on the covered plate. “We got it from Da Ankora. I hope it helps.”
I glared at the blue pill, wondering if it was safe. Taking an unprescribed drug while pregnant wasn’t advisable.
“Come on, Da Ankora will never harm you.” Fred offered a glass of water to me. “he said it will heal your body. Obviously, we…” He averted his gaze, gulping. “We hurt your vagina while at it. This will help it heal.”
Little wonder the agony I felt in my pussy was too much, almost like I was getting ripped in two.
“Is…” I gulped, looking from Fred to Blue. “Is the baby safe? I mean, you guys were pretty rough last night, and I’m feeling a slight pain in my abdomen.. do you think -”
“You don’t have to bother about it.” Smiling, Blue placed his hand on my stomach. “We can feel it. You don’t have to worry about it.”
Nodding, I picked up the pill from where he placed it, and swallowed it, drinking it down with the water.
“Good. Now, it’s time for breakfast!” Fred called out in a singsong voice. “Can you guess what we prepared for you?” Grinning, he watched me, his eyes sparkling.
“What else but chicken soup?” I glared at him. “It’s not that much of a surprise, is it?” I moaned.
“How did you know?”
“The smell,” I replied dryly, opening the plates. As I guessed, one was chicken soup while the other was omelette and fries. “Thanks a lot for the meal.”
