Chapter 410 - 410: Sowing seeds.
It was not David that woke Phoebe up in the morning but the sound of the waterfall which traveled in through an open window. The weather was not gloomy as it had been the day before, the sun though not strong had made an appearance.
Its rays radiated through the white curtains of the suite, filling the room with its glow, bringing a smile to Phoebe's face as she opened her eyes slowly. A serene smile came to her lips as the events of last night came rushing back. David had made love to her again not once, but three more times and each time had felt like the first-amazing than the last one.
She was not keeping score but if she was, their sex life now kicked the sex life of their last life. She could not believe what had happened, they had gone from him showing hesitation to losing control.
He had definitely used some of the ideas from the book the spirit had showed him. Her hand rustled through the sheets to his side of the bed, it was warm but empty. 'Is he gone?' Phoebe's head jerked up in
"Have a bite, after last night you must be hungry." he gently instructed, his thumb brushing her cheek. "Why did you not tell me that she attacked you? I heard to hear it from Luna, I want to know such things the moment they happen babe, I am never busy to handle such issues." There was a tinge of disappointment in his voice.
Phoebe raised her hand to touch his cheek. "You have to allow me to handle some of these things on my own otherwise I will remain weak, and I do not want to be weak.
I am not a canary in a cage David, I am the eagle that is flying freely and capable of hunting. I am not intimidated by Moria or her mother, they are making fools of themselves. What I am doing is allowing them to bark like crazy dogs and then I can slap them with the truth, and they will be too ashamed to step out of their house. I request that you focus on more important things like saving the sick in the world with your medicines." She pinched his cheek lightly until he dramatically winced.
She started eating, he stayed beside her watching her devour the breakfast with a smile on his face. Eventually, he had to stop with the gawking and smiling, the real world was calling. David's eyes moved to the clock, he had been away from work for a while, and he needed to go back and monitor things.
"Unfortunately...." he started, giving Phoebe an apologetic look.
The spirit appeared and interjected. "Do not tell me that you are going to run away after planting your seed in her?" Its tone came heavy, loaded with berating.
David raised his eyes instinctively only to see an old woman with long white hair, he lurched up to stand on his feet. It took him a while before he figured who it was. "Z-Zephyra, am I right?"
He was familiar with the voice, the woman behind the voice had been a mystery until now. She looked nothing like he had imagined, she definitely did not have white hair when he pictured her.
"Zephyra Saxon in the flesh or ghost, I do not know what rhymes better, you can choose which pleases you." The spirit smiled warmly and twirled for some reason Phoebe couldn't fathom.
David was still staring at it in disbelief. "Saxon? Like Saxon, like me?" He asked pointing from Zephyra to himself and her again. He could not make heads or tails of it.
He was not the only puzzled person in the room, Phoebe was shocked but not because David could see the spirit now but because it said that he had planted his seed in her. There was only one type of seed planting which was not related to plants.
"Yes, David that is your ancestor, get with the reality but ancestor what seeds are you talking about? You cannot mean that kind of seed planting, this was our first time, I cannot be pregnant!!" She exclaimed.
The Saxon spirit shrugged. "You should have thought of that before forgetting to use rainy day umbrellas last night. You my dear are as fertile as a mouse."
Phoebe put a hand on her head and her head fell back on the pillow. "Oh, I must be dreaming." She sat up with wide eyes and a smile. "I know the science of how a normal woman gets pregnant and it's too soon to tell." She immediately dived into denial.
"A normal woman, are you one? My dear you are a magical being, a cheat of nature. You are not even supposed to exist, both of you. So, are you ready to get with reality?" It laughed with mirth.
Connie appeared from the space with her hands covering her eyes. "Are they dressed? Can I look?" She voiced innocently; she tittered playfully. "We are having babies." she squealed.
