Ancient Blood: The Fallen (22 page)

* * *

Hours later, I lay nestled naked against Dante, my hand resting on my stomach as within me shock, as well as a warm glow of satisfaction filtered throughout my system, for though we’d lost Arreon,  causing our hearts to ache painfully, there would soon be another life brought forth.

As well, I'd asked Dante why he'd chosen to fall, to which he'd shrugged and stated, “that night by the river, Jabar possessed Seth's body and marked you, for though an angel can't perform magic, we
can
place an item that has been spelled upon an object of our choice, its called marking.

Jabar marked
you
with a spelled word upon your wrist, awakening your mating need” then with a shrug he stated, “you would have lain with anyone that night Kira” then with a sheepish grin he muttered, “besides, I was already in love with you, and couldn't stand the thought of another man touching what was
mine.”

After a few seconds he whispered, “you are not at fault for my changing Kira,
I
am. Though it is not forbidden for a watcher to have intercourse with another immortal, it
is
forbidden to do it with one born of a Dark Ones blood, because of the blood transference, and the absorption rate, for we begin turning immediately, and I knew that. However, it does take about a year for the change to be completed, and in that time we are given a chance to redeem ourselves, however we can  never be in the same Celestial Sphere again, and our ranking can only be lowered, until there is nothing lower and we are banished. However to get redemption, we have to meet certain requirements first. I was halfway though meeting them when I learned the
unholy were coming after you, and there was no way in hell I was staying away, not with you in danger!
”

Then with a shrug he muttered sheepishly, “I could have still gone back and maybe completed the requirements in time, but I couldn't keep my hands off you, couldn't stop
needing
you! Then I learned you were pregnant, and well...there was no going back after that, as I knew I could do one last thing for you, I could give up my soul to save our baby!”

Wiping at the tears his words had brought to my eyes, I rolled over and climbed on top of him, feeling the rapidly recovering length of his cock as I murmured, “I love you angel man” then, “do you think Arreon would approve if we named the baby after him?”

From above us, a loud clap of thunder shook the walls, and with a grin spreading across his features Dante laughed, “
that
, I'd say, was a resounding yes.”

Then growing serious Dante gazed into my eyes, before he finally whispered, “it's not over yet Kira, you know that right?”
