A visit to the kids cont. & a visit with Korvil Ala fell back to sleep in his arms feeling absolutely exhausted Torvil landed at home a bit later, and put her to bed. He rested next to her, listening to her sleep. Ala stirred just a little when he put her down opening her eyes for a moment before dozing right back off again Torvil lay beside her, until he had to go to the restroom. He got up and did his business then came back after drying his hands to lay back down. Ala slept for another half hour or so after he returned then stirred and stretched starting to wake up Torvil smiled as he felt her stir and stretch. Ala opened her eyes and looked at him then gave him a smile Torvil purred and kissed her softly. "Feeling better?" "Not so tired now" she said with a nod Torvil smiled. "Good..."He purred loudly. "And tonight you'll get more rest and be right as rain..." Ala smiled softly Torvil purred and kissed her. Ala returned his kiss softly Torvil purred happily and broke the kiss, nuzzling her face softly. Ala smiled "What shall we do now love?" she asked rolling onto her side and reaching and running a finger along his side Torvil purred. "Whatever the great Queen of the land desires..." Ala laughed "Is that so" Torvil chuckled. "Aye, for she is the mother of prince/princess bump, who is the successor to the throne..." He smirked. "I am but the lowly king of the land, having no power but to serve my mistress the Queen, for I come from common stock." Ala laughed "I chose the last thing" she said running a finger on his towel "Kinda a shame we had to hightail it outta there earlier, your father, regardless of his downfalls, well,,, he intrigues me" Torvil chuckled. "So you want us to go back and half another talk?" "It'd probably be easier for you and bump if he could do what your brothers used to.. especially since I can see and hear... " she mused Torvil nodded and took her hand, walking her to the couch so he could cuddle next to her. "Just give me a sec..." He closed his eyes. Ala laughed "Shouldn't we get dressed first?" Torvil shook his head, and the ghostly image of his father appeared and solidified. Korvil stood in the middle of the room looking around. Ala chuckled the budge in her belly was very plainly visible when she had a towel wrapped around her "Welcome to our living room" she said at the tall man who was looking around Korvil smiled at Ala. "I am honored..." He knelt down, bowing his head. "Why have you summoned me Torvil?" Torvil chuckled. "Ala wants to talk..." Korvil's brow rose. Ala chuckled "be normal Korvil, I've only ever had one other DL kneel anywhere near me besides my mate and I don't really think I'm needing of it. Besides, you are family." Korvil nodded and sat down on the floor with a smile. "Kinda felt rushed earlier, don't really know you and kinda would like to..." Ala said leaning against Torvil Korvil smiled. "Well it would be an honor to know my son's mate..." He looked down at his feet. "Though I owe him more apologies than I could ever from.... "Technically I'm his second mate, but I don't see myself going anywhere any time soon. " She told him Korvil looked at Torvil his eyes wide. "She left me father..." Torvil said softly. "A long time ago..." Ala nodded "Long enough time ago that it's the past now" she added "The present and future is what counts" Korvil just nodded slowly. "In any case..." He turned to Torvil. "I am sorry... Truly, for the things I have done..." "I've only heard of some of the stuff I'm sure, personally experienced very little, but it's a wonderful change in my mind to hear the apology" she said quietly Korvil bowed his head. Ala smiled softly and looked towards her husband, she rest a hand on her belly Torvil smiled softly. "I forgave you a long time ago father... For everything..." Korvil sighed heavily, he looked like he was about to cry again. "Ok I think we have enough tears for now, now I think it's time to start anew and truly get to know each other" she smiled Korvil wiped his eye. "Yes... You're right: Ala chuckled "Yup, so as you already know I'm Ala, and I was originally a pureblood Kerrsalian, though not anymore" she said as her tail moved lazily near her feet "I have gotten to know Mikiri, Malkar and Mitizimi, now I want to get to know you" Korvil bowed his head again. "What do you want to know." "I don't know, just want to get to know you as well, the new you" she chuckled "after all I can't describe someone I don't really know to a child" she said motioning her belly Korvil smiled. "I'm sure it will be a beautiful child... Odd though, that you have not bore it already..." "My Kerrsalian side seems to be effecting this pregnancy more then the first time I bore children, besides the fact we had to seek help to conceive this child" and said trying to clear that up Korvil nodded and shook his head. "I understand little of help... But I do understand your different race..." "Well only partially now" she nodded Korvil nodded. "Regardless, you were not what you were before..." Ala nodded "Now I'm more Torvil then I am me, species and race wise at least" Korvil chuckled. "And interesting turn of events..." "Much so, though many of hte changes I took hurt like hell" she said with a nod " especially my head when my horns grew and my back.." Korvil chuckled. "Aye, tis quite displeasing to grow in the horns...." "Even your back wont let things grow cause of your body constantly healing, that one made me pass out" she nodded Korvil winced. "Must have been most unpleasant..." Ala nodded "now they unfold quite nicely when I want them to" she paused "Course they made Mitizimi faint.... oh well...." Korvil chuckled. "My wife has always been one for hysterics..." Ala laughed "especially when she finds out her kid is a winged" Korvil smirked. "Well now... Aren't I a lucky father..." "And grandfather, all 3 of our born children are as well" she said with a nod Korvil smiled. "Well now, any other surprises I should know of? Ala glanced at Torvil unsure if he planned to do what he was thinking of, or if he planned to tell Korvil "Dad..." Torvil finally spoke. "Yes son?" Korvil looked to Torvil. "I'm going to bring you back..." Korvil stared wide eyed. "He's done it a couple other times Korvil, he brought back Mikiri when she committed suicide, as well as Malkar the same day" she said quietly Korvil shook his head. "That's not it..." He said softly. "What if Mitizimi has moved on..." "She hasn't... She still mourns..." Torvil said softly. Ala nodded "She does" Korvil looked down at his hands. "If that is what you wish Torvil..." "It is father... and call me son..." "Son..." Ala smiled softly "Many many changes in the Rakamash family, as well as changes in the cliffs. Will you be ready for that Korvil?" Korvil nodded. "Aye..." Ala smiled and nodded "I think all the changes are for the better, including yours" Korvil smiled. "Thank you.." Ala closed her eyes for a moment "Oh geez why now, back in a moment guys" she said holding her towel and getting up leaving the room rather quickly Torvil winced, and Korvil tilted his head. "She ill?" "Morning sickness... Something they get with longer pregnancies..." Korvil shook his head. Ala made it to their bedroom bathroom and did her thing returning a short time later wearing her kimono robe instead of the towel Torvil and Korvil were talking. "Are you sure you're up to it son? It sounds like quite the risk..." "I'll be fine dad, trust me..." "Last time he brought someone back it was Malkar, and he drained nearly all his energy. I shared mine with him .... and scared the healer pretty good" she said catching their conversation as she entered her tail moving lazily behind her as it stuck out of a slit in the back Korvil looked at Torvil. "I will not have my son give his life to bring me back..." He sighed. "The old me would have... But not now... You have a family to raise and a loving wife who needs you." Torvil growled. "You have a wife too father, and if we don't act soon she's going to be joining you..." "Do you want that Korvil? Want Mitizimi to join you there?" she asked Korvil frowned. "No..." He sighed. "I want her to be happy, but if we lose our son..." He shook his head slowly. "You wont.... it took him bringing back two people last time to lose his energy, not just one as it would be in your case" she said Korvil nodded. "And I'll have help from Asmodeus..." Ala nodded "He's thought about this Korvil, put faith in him" she said "and don't mind me these things want air... " she grumbled she let the wings unfold from her back "I control them not the other way around but sometimes they just seem to want it" she shrugged Korvil chuckled softly and looked them over. "I truly am a blessed man, it took death to see that..." He shook his head. "Death to see that?" she raised a brow Korvil frowned. "My wording perhaps is strange..." He shook his head. "I am blessed, but I had to die before I could see them..." "Ah ok I see. You will come to see white-hairs aren't as bad as they are made out to be... even your daughter learned that" she said with a nod standing beside her husband Korvil bowed his head. "Blame Shezar... He used them as a scapegoat..." "Shezar has been banished in the other side, he tried to use me against Torvil at the cliffs, it didn't work out for him and when he escaped hte hole he was executed... That's when he decided to haunt me....." she said quietly Korvil shivered. "I have no pity for him... Tell me he suffers..." "I saw him just before we saw you today, he's hanging upside down on a wooden cross like thing with Ravens pecking at him" she said looking at the floor Korvil grinned. "The tower..." "The tower?" Ala looked at him with a raised brow, she's heard of so many 'tower' names to keep them all straight Torvil sighed. "Its just the tower love..." Ala nodded slowly Korvil nodded grimly. "Not the nicest way to die... Or exist..." "I don't even want to fathom what he had in mind for me if I hadn't blown him against the wall" she wrapped her arms around herself Korvil frowned. "He probably would have held you hostage..." "Thank goodness for this then" she let her eyes shift green and held a hand up opening to show a small green ball of which she had complete control of Korvil whistled. Ala nodded "I sent two of those at him" she decided to make a good use of the energy and created a water ball and brought them together , when she was done her eyes shifted back and she tossed the crystal to her husband Torvil caught it and tossed it on the table. He smiled. "That's two... you spoil me..." Korvil stared at it... He seemed to be mouthing the word. 'Shiny' Ala laughed "I've made many more then that love" she caught a look at the word Korvil mouthed "Yep shiny, made the first one after Mikiri and Malkar both showed great interested in my gem" she said pushing her bangs aside Torvil chuckled. "But you've only given me two..." He stuck his tongue out at her." Korvil nodded. "I should be off... I feel Torvil growing weaker by the moment..." "I am not..." Korvil glared at him. "Yes father..." Ala stuck her tongue back out at Torvil "Two for you Two for Mikiri and Malkar, One for Torvin the rest are... erm... hidden" she blushed lightly she hadn't told him she'd don't that "I can see the spirits just as Torvil can so uhm feel free to visit again when appropriate" she told Korvil with a nod Korvil nodded with a smiled and vanished. Torvil was looking at her with a small smile on his lips. Ala looked at him "What's that look for?" she blushed lightly Torvil got up and nuzzled her softly. "You're hording things..." He smirked. Ala blushed more and folded her wings back in "Is that ... erm.. bad?" Torvil moved his mouth to her ear and nipped lightly. "If by bad you mean unbelievably sexy then yes..." Ala blushed and kissed his cheek then headed for their room Torvil purred and followed her, leaving the gem on the table. Ala reached their room before he did and was on her hands and knees beside the bed pushing at something to make it slide out the other side Torvil chuckled and sat down on the bed. Ala looked up at him with a blush "You gonna look?" she asked motioning at the other side of the bed where a box was pushing at the blankets, it was one from in the shop that had held toques and scarves Torvil smiled and crawled over, picking it up and putting it on the bed. He opened it. Ala didn't move as he looked, the box was 2/3 full of water crystals among a couple other little things Torvil purred and put it back under the bed. He walked over to her and pulled her into a kiss. Ala returned the kiss fidgeting slightly with her robe as she kissed Torvil broke away and sad down on the bed, purring. Ala got up she looked at him and blushed a bit then got rid of her robe beside climbing on the bed with him Torvil cast off his towel and pulled her down with him, pulling her close to him as he tossed the covers over them. Ala cuddled close "I hadn't told you, wasn't sure what you would think" she mumbled Torvil smiled. "Before the baby, we wouldn't be cuddling..." He nuzzled her face. "Hording makes you very, very hot..." Ala blinked "it does?" that confused her Torvil chuckled, and shivered. "Don't you feel that compulsive need to pick up the shiny things and put them in the box..." He quivered. "It's like, one of the ultimate dragon turn ons..." Ala nodded biting her lip "I don't do it much around the house too many things go missing if I did... like utensils" she blushed Torvil chuckled. "Yeah, those are hard to resist..." He nuzzled her. "I almost took the silverware from the restaurant..." Ala giggled "So I did things that wouldn't be noticed, like water crystals" she said Torvil nodded and cuddled with her. "Once we have the baby, we'll go on a hording spree... " Ala laughed and nuzzled him Torvil purred his eyes slowly closing. soon he was off in dreamland. Ala smiled and reached up turning off the light then cuddled up against him and closed her eyes
