Narissa let out a shaky sigh of relief as Nero finally took the ring and she pulled her hand away as though she had been burned. The ring felt wrong...oh so wrong and she wasn't entirely sure why that was the case. "It never belonged to me anyway, and it belongs with it's true owner." She said gently and then bit down on her bottom lip at his question. "You're asking if I want to get rid of his child aren't you?" She asked and she ran a hand along her stomach. "I...think I'll keep it, it's not the child's fault after all." She looked over at Rameses then, "I'm not expecting you to-" She broke off with a pained expression. "I won't blame you if you don't want any part of this." She said eventually before she looked away from him. It hurt to say as much, "As for the memories...as much as I want to get rid of them...I should try to bear them for as long as I possibly can. I do have a few bruises but I can probably heal those on my own, I don't want to be a bother." She said quietly. The bruises were ones Thomas had left her with earlier that morning when he had woken her up that morning. They weren't in places generally seen by the public as they were on her upper thighs from where he had gripped her too harshly. -- Clopin moved to lie down on the bed next to Nakoma, his hands moving to loosely hold her against him. Chel frowned, "From what I could read she's undergone a lot both physically and mentally. Thomas left her with several reminders of what he's done to her. I think the best thing you can do for Narissa is be there for her, she needs you. And I have a feeling you need her too, I'm sure the two of you have a lot to discuss as it is. After all you both thought the other was dead for several months, and now you're both pregnant. Just talk to her whenever you're ready and I'm sure things will work out." Chel said encouragingly.

At Narissa's question, Nero nodded. Rameses immediately looked up, his eyes wide that his father would even suggest something. "Father!" He said in a hushed tone almost like he was scolding the man. Nero rolled his eyes and waved a hand, dismissing his son. "It was just an offer. If she doesn't want me to do it, I won't do anything but this is something the two of you will need to discuss." Rameses nodded at his father's words, knowing that he was right. Of course he didn't enjoy the idea of her carrying another man's child but he couldn't hurt her my making her give it up. Though at Narissa's words, he frowned and stepped towards her. "Of course I want to be part of this. I love you and I will never abandon you." He hope that she could tell how serious he was. As she mentioned the bruises, he frowned and leaned down, kissing her lips. She had said that she would do it herself but he couldn't stand the idea of Narissa being marked by another man like that so he healed her himself. Nero felt a smile come to his lips as he watched his son. He could tell that he truly loved her so no matter what, they could make it through this. "Well I will let you two talk some stuff out while I go check on Nakoma. Get some rest you two...Your mother and I can watch Tzipporah tonight." Nero gently pat his son on the shoulder before he turned and left down the hallway.
---
Nakoma shifted so Clopin could lay next to her, enjoying the feeling of his body against hers. As Chel mentioned what Narissa had been through, she frowned. She knew to some degree what her sister was going through. Those six months apart from Clopin had messed her up pretty bad but at least she wasn't tormented by one man the whole time. Thomas was a completely different kind of torment. His goal wasn't to hurt Narissa...that much she could tell. It's just that he was so obsessed that this was the only way he could actually get Narissa near him. Nakoma was brought out of her thoughts at Chel's next words and she felt instant guilt. "I should have been there for her more...she was taken because of me and now she has to carry Thomas' child as a constant reminder. I don't know how I will ever make it up to her..." Her hands ran over her own stomach, feeling her baby bump. Another knock at the door caused her to look up and she saw Nero come in next. "Hey, how are you feeling?" He moved to Chel's side and wrapped his arm around her as he looked down at Nakoma. "I'm fine. Chel's put me on bed rest for the rest of the night." She let out a soft laugh and leaned into Clopin.

Narissa felt instant relief fill her as Rameses healed the bruises and clung to him as he kissed her. She leaned into him just a little bit, keeping one hand on her daughter as she did so. "Thank you." She called after Nero as he left them and then pulled back reluctantly. "I know that the very idea of me carrying someone else's child must be extremely painful Rameses. I...just...I don't want to kill it...I don't think I could live with myself if I did. His child deserves at least a chance to survive...understand I'm not keeping it for him. He treated me like I...like I was an object, and he was so controlling." She said with a shudder. "I couldn't do what I wanted...he used me and forced me to be his little sex doll. It didn't matter if I was hurt..it didn't matter if I begged him to stop...all he wanted was to dominate me." She said with a disgusted frown as she remembered it. "I wanted to go back to you so badly, to see our daughter and now that I have you both- I'm terrified that I'll lose you again. That he'll show up and take everything away from me...I don't want that. I don't want to lose you Rameses, and when you forgot me...it was like I was invisible to you all over again. Like I was having my heart torn out of my chest...I couldn't understand why you'd want to forget me. You thought I was dead and you...you did that...why? Why would you hurt yourself like that? Remove memories of someone you knew...someone you cared about." She added, her voice dropping to a near whisper. "I love you Rameses and I love our daughter...more then you can possibly imagine." She said and felt her expression fall just slightly as she took in the sight of their daughter in his arms. "I wasn't the kind of mother I should have been for her...I was weak." She said with self disgust in her tone as she looked away then. -- Chel gave Nakoma a sympathetic smile, "Well I have a feeling that she'll forgive you...but then again I'm optimistic." She said with a little shrug. Clopin sighed, he hated seeing Nakoma this upset, "I'm sure she'll understand everything Nakoma. You don't give yourself enough credit you know." He pointed out with a frown. "I mean if you hadn't gone into that lingerie store then we might never have known Narissa was even there. It's really thanks to you that we were even able to find her. You were even the one to convince Rameses to go to the party." He added gently. He glanced over as the door opened and Nero walked in, "Hey dad." He said and watched as Chel leaned into his embrace. "We should probably give them some time to rest now that I think about it." Chel added as Nakoma spoke up. "And remember what I said no strenuous activity...even though I totally would support a family orgy if you were feeling up too it." She said with a mischievous smirk.

Rameses took her hand gently and shook his head. "I understand. We can work through this. Yes, it's not ideal but like you said, it's not the child's fault..." He sighed and kissed the top of her head. Though as she mentioned how he had erased her from his memories, he immediately felt guilty and pulled back just slightly. "I never should have done that but...it was just so painful. I had heard Ruby say that it was possible for you to come back but I just thought she was lying...I hated Nakome for so long because she got to live but you didn't. It was selfish of me and I never should have felt that way but I couldn't help it. I waited for so long but seeing Nakoma caring for our child..There were some nights that I would think it was you. I would get so happy that you were finally home until reality hit and I remembered that you were gone. They were engaged the night she came back to life. It had only been a few hours after I lost you and it broke my heart. My own brother was going to marry the woman of his dreams and have a family while I lost the woman I loved and I would be a single father..forever. It made me...depressed. Whenever Nakoma would take Tizzy for the night, I would drink. It got so bad that they had to start hiding the alcohol from me. When they took a vacation earlier this week, I couldn't take it anymore. It killed me living every single day thinking that you were dead and I would have to live the rest of my life without you. For some reason I thought that it would be easier if I just...forgot." He sighed and looked down at Tizzy in his arms. She had gone right back to sleep and nuzzled into his chest. "After I forgot...I became a better father to her. I spent every waking moment with her. I'd tell her stories of her mother...even though all I let myself remember was your name and that we were madly in love. She loved it when I made up adventures of the three of us. But now that you're here...I already feel like I have everything I could have ever wanted. Although...not quite everything." He took a step towards her and pulled her close to him, holding Tizzy slightly to the side so she wouldn't get squished. "I don't have a ring yet..and I know you were just engaged a few hours ago before I crashed your wedding. But when you're ready...will you marry me?"
---
Nakoma hadn't realized that she had been the reason that they found Narissa. She had just been so distraught about the sudden shock that she could hardly think of anything else. "I guess that's true...I'll have a talk with her in the morning. She needs some time with Rameses and her daughter. I can wait..." As Chel mentioned giving them time to rest, she nodded but her next words made her cheeks blush. Nero raised an eyebrow at her and rolled his eyes. "Alright, that's our cue to leave. Keep it in your pants darling." He teased as he hooked his arm through Chel's, tugging her away from the bed. "Goodnight you two. Rest as long as you need....you and your orgies love, really?" He muttered the last part to Chel as they walked out of the room, his tone sarcastic yet playful. Nakoma couldn't help but laugh softly to herself. For as long as she could remember, Chel had always been the same.

Narissa bit down on her bottom lip as he explained his reasons to her. It made sense then..looking at it from an outside perspective she hadn't quite been able to understand it. Now though...well she could somewhat understand his reasons, it still hurt but it was better then the reasons she had come up with. "Oh...that...that makes more sense then." She said dumbly. She looked up then as he stepped closer towards her and stared at him uncomprehendingly as he spoke. Surely she was hearing things...she'd never thought he'd actually propose to her. Of course they had started dating but now...now that he was actually asking her, she couldn't say anything for a few moments. For so long she had dreamt of him asking her that question...each and every time she'd wake up to a bitter reality. That was perhaps the hardest part of it all, waking up and realizing that it was all just a dream. She felt her breath stagger a little bit as she tried not to have a panic attack on him. The last thing she wanted was for him to get the wrong idea, and yet she was so scared that this wasn't real. "Of course I'll marry you." She said before she leaned forward and kissed him on the lips, being careful not to hurt their daughter as she did so. -- Clopin's whole face turned a brilliant red at his mother's comment and he felt extremely relieved that Nero led her out of the room. "Sorry about that." He said as he looked at Nakoma in some embarrassment. Chel always said things like that and it seemed that today was no exception. He pressed a gentle kiss on Nakoma's neck as he drew her closer against him. "How about we go to bed? We can talk more in the morning and then you and Narissa can talk." He pointed out with a small smile.

Rameses felt instant worry as she only stared at him for a few moments after his question. Should he not have asked? Was she upset with him for asking? He had just been about to apologize when she said yes and a smile grew on his lips. Rameses eagerly kissed her back. His father and mother came back in and he handed off Tizzy to her before he took Narissa back to their room. At first he just laid with her, holding her next to him until eventually they started to have sex. He kept her in consideration each time. After all, it had been months since they had been together so anything they did was like fireworks. Rameses lost count of how many times they were together but he didn't care. He had missed her so much...
Nakoma laughed at his words and shook her head. "It's fine, I should have expected something like that from her. It's kind of hard to pretend that we haven't done anything now that I'm pregnant." She teased and leaned into him. As he pressed a gentle kiss on her neck, a soft moan came past her lips and she nuzzled into him. Nakoma had almost forgotten how tired she was and she definitely didn't object as he suggested going to bed. It didn't take long for her to fall asleep next to him, his heartbeat soothing her in more ways than one.
---
Rameses had snuck off early that morning to make Narissa breakfast in bed. She had been through a lot and after last night, he wanted to make sure she was going to be comfortable. After all, it was a rather large adjustment moving from such a terrible environment to her regular life. He knocked on their bedroom door before he slowly opened it, smiling at her as he walked in carrying the tray in his hands. "Good morning...I thought you'd want some breakfast." Rameses set down the tray on the end table and leaned down to press a kiss against her lips.

Narissa came too with a jerk before she realized that Rameses wasn't in bed next to her. She sighed and lay back as she tried to get her heart rate to calm down. The nightmare she'd just woken up from had really shaken her. At first she had been having a pleasant dream of her and Rameses having sex and then Rameses had turned into Thomas. He had flung her down against the mattress as he yelled insults down at her. She shuddered and tried to focus on Rameses, she was with him now...and it wasn't a dream. It wasn't a dream and she had her baby with her now and her sister was alive. All were things she had never considered to actually happen to her. She had believed that Rameses had given up on her...and in some ways he had but she couldn't blame him for that. He had saved her from a loveless marriage and reunited her with her daughter and her sister. She was pulled out of her thoughts as the door opened and Rameses walked in holding a breakfast tray. "Wow you made me breakfast? Thank you." She said and eagerly kissed him back as he leaned down to kiss her. No one had ever made her breakfast in bed before and she felt more then a little emotional. Probably because of the pregnancy hormones, but also because she had really missed Rameses. "I love you." She whispered against his lips and meaning it before she kissed him again and then pulling back just slightly. "So what did you make?" She asked curiously. -- Clopin slowly woke up with his arms protectively wrapped around Nakoma, and took a moment just to enjoy the feeling of her in his arms. She was still asleep and he didn't want to wake her up, at least not yet...mornings like this were his favorite and he honestly couldn't wait to marry her. Of course he had a few months before he could officially marry her but he knew it would be worth it. Nakoma had been worth the wait in every sense of the word and he loved her more and more with each passing day. He glanced down at her stomach and smiled at the sight, it was a small swell but still visible. She was pregnant with his child and he couldn't be more excited, he'd love their child with his whole being. His hand ran along her stomach as he pulled her closer towards him.

Rameses grinned at her words and helped her sit up and adjusted the sheets around her. "While you were gone, I did learn how to cook...at least a little bit. Tizzy is about to start the transition into actual foods so I figured I needed to start learning." He leaned down and pressed his lips against hers as she kissed him again. "Pancakes and some fruit..it's not much but you need all you can get for that baby." Rameses kissed her cheek and shifted so he could sit next to her but left her with plenty of her own space in case she needed it. "Did you sleep alright last night?" He worried about Narissa being on her own. After all, he knew what it was like to watch a woman carry a child that was part demon but something like Thomas...he worried what that could do to her. If he thought that Tizzy was bad, he couldn't imagine what it would be like for this next child.
---
Nakoma shifted on the bed as she felt a hand running over her stomach and a small smile came to her lips. She loved being pregnant. It was a hassle at times but it still made her so happy. She couldn't wait for the day that her child would move and she could feel it..for the day it was born and she and Clopin could be a real family. Her eyes slowly flicked open and she looked up to see Clopin staring down at her. A smile tugged at the corner of her lips and she shifted so she could lay on her side, her arm cradling her stomach to keep it safe. "Good morning..." She nuzzled close to him and pressed a kiss against his arm. Nakoma felt more rested than she had in ages. Her sister was finally home and alive...everything seemed perfect.

After having managed to eat enough to satisfy Rameses, Narissa had changed into a loose dress and moved off to find Tizzy. She hadn't said as much but it saddened her to know that she'd never probably get the chance to feed her own daughter. Her daughter was awake and Chel let her pick her up and play with her, Narissa didn't want to let her go any time soon. She had so much she wanted to do with her daughter, eventually though she did put her down for a nap. Staring down at her daughter, Narissa felt the exhaustion from the night before catch up too her. She had lied to Rameses, she hadn't slept much at all partly due to pregnancy pains and the nightmares that constantly kept her up. Thomas was still out there and she knew he'd come back for her...it was only a matter of time. She moved to sit down next to the crib and let out a shaky sigh. Thomas would hurt everyone she cared about just to keep her by his side. He'd react even worse if he found out that she was engaged to marry Rameses. Thinking of Thomas made her feel sick to her stomach and her hand drifted there as she wondered if she had made the right decision in keeping his child. She knew it had hurt Rameses that she was keeping Thomas's child, but he thankfully hadn't argued against her decision. When Thomas came back Narissa was terrified of just what he'd do...maybe she should go back to him? She hated herself for considering it but she didn't want her family to get hurt because of her selfishness.

Nakoma had spent the whole morning talking with Clopin about their child and what she could do to prevent from harming it. Just that last week was torture on her child and she didn't want that to happen again. She bathed herself and slipped on a simple dress that hugged her form. Her belly showed thanks to the dress and she looked down at it thoughtfully, her hands gently holding it. It worried her that she wasn't as large as a normal woman about this time in her pregnancy but she tried not to focus on that. As long as her child came out healthy, she didn't mind. It was hard to believe that she was five months...in no time, she'd have a child of her own just like Tizzy. Once she was ready, she made her way to the nursery where Rameses said Narissa had gone that morning. Nakoma knocked on the door lightly just in case Tizzy was asleep. She saw Narissa sitting next to the crib and a small smile came to her face. "Hey, I just thought I'd check up on you." She stepped in and gently moved to shut the door. After a moment, she saw how tired Narissa already was and she kept her hand on the handle. "Oh if you were going to rest, I can come back..."

Narissa looked up as she heard the door open and smiled when she saw Nakoma standing there. She frowned though when Nakoma started backing out, "No it's fine, I don't think I could sleep anyway." She said with a little shrug and then gestured for Nakoma to join her. "I haven't gotten a chance to talk to you and-" She broke off when she saw the swell of Nakoma's stomach. It wasn't like she'd had much of a chance to see her anyway but then again she remembered Rameses had mentioned it to her. "You're pregnant! Oh that is so amazing! I'm so happy for you. Rameses told me yesterday but I thought you were-" She broke off with a pained look on her face and then cleared her throat before she stood up. "I'm really happy for you Nakoma...I wish you and Clopin the best." She said gently before she moved to hug her. "I'm really...really glad you're not dead." She whispered as she held onto her. All those months that she had been gone she had mourned Nakoma's death and in some ways it still hurt just even thinking about it. Nakoma was her twin sister and while they hadn't always been close, she had at least tried to mend their relationship. Narissa reluctantly pulled back and smiled at Nakoma, "I owe you so much for saving Tzipporah's life...she would have died if you hadn't fed her. So thank you." She said honestly before she glanced back at her daughter with a small smile. "I wouldn't have been able to see her if you hadn't helped her." She added after a moment.

Nakoma gave her sister a soft smile as she came fully into the room. Though she blushed as Narissa noticed her stomach and her hand gently rested on top of it. She didn't even fight it as her sister pulled her in for a hug and Nakoma wrapped her arms around her. It felt so amazing to feel her sister in person again. They had never been close but being without her really took a toll on Nakoma...more than she realized. "I missed you so much..." She whispered, holding onto her sister longer than she probably should have. "I'm so glad that you're back...and alive. I love you...I'm sorry for everything." Nakoma pulled back slightly as Narissa did, rubbing a tear that slid down her cheek. As Narissa mentioned Tzipphorah, a nervous laugh came past her lips. "I wasn't sure how it happened until Rameses told me this morning..I'm just grateful that Tho-" Her words cut off, not wanting to say Thomas' name in front of her. "I"m just glad that he was willing to let her live...I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. It was my fault. If I just wasn't so stupid all the time, none of this would have happened..." Nakoma frowned and wiped another tear from her cheek.

Narissa bit down on her bottom lip, "He knew that I'd do anything to keep her safe, he took advantage of my love for her. I'd do it all over again...she's worth it. It wasn't easy though...all I wanted was to be with Rameses." She frowned though as Nakoma started blaming herself. "It was not your fault Nakoma. It was his..his and mine, he took advantage of me when I was having a blood craze. After that he just took me whenever he wanted." She shrugged but her expression was pained from the memories. "I only have myself to blame for what he did..if I hadn't saved his life I wouldn't have been raped. I wouldn't have been separated from Rameses and my child...so no it's not your fault Nakoma. It could never possibly be your fault, not ever." She said honestly hoping that Nakoma could see how serious she was being in that moment. She sighed and cleared her throat wanting to focus off that subject. "I'm worried about Tizzy...I used the stones when I was pregnant with her and after that she became so active. She became so strong to a near supernatural level...I don't know what the stones did to her. Or how they'll affect her when she gets older...I still haven't talked to Nero about it." She added, she figured he'd probably know more about the stones then she did.

Nakoma nodded at her sister's words and sighed, running a hand through her own hair. As she mentioned what Thomas had done to her, she frowned. She knew what that was like...not having control of yourself and doing something that you'd regret to the end of your days. Nakoma still regretted almost having sex with Rameses and her own sister. She hated that feeling of helplessness...not being able to control herself. As Narissa mentioned her daughter, Nakoma looked over and bit her bottom lip. Rameses had told her about the times that Narissa would be ill because of the child. That was mostly why they kept the stones hidden from her ever since Clopin told her she was pregnant. The last thing Rameses wanted was for her to go through the same thing. "Do you know what kind of powers she could have? Or if Rameses knows? He's been pretty hush hush about her ever since he managed to save her...I think the only time he ever let us have her on our own was when we forced him to. He never wanted her out of his sight." Nakoma sighed and walked towards the crib, looking down at her niece. "I can try and check on her if you'd like...I can't guarantee that it would be one hundred percent accurate but it could give us something to go one. Just to make sure she really is healthy...I may be able to see what some of her powers could be even..If you want of course."

Narissa bit down on her bottom lip, "He hasn't told me, but then I haven't asked." She admitted eventually. A part of her had been too afraid to do so, she felt so responsible for what she had done after all. Anything that had happened to their daughter when she had used those stones surely couldn't be good for her child. She looked up at Nakoma's words then and considered her offer, "I'd like that...I...I need to know what she'll be like." She continued as she looked down at her daughter with a small frown. Tzipporah slept on completely unaware of the discussion currently going on around her and Narissa was silently grateful for it. "I need to know that she'll still be fine...Gods if I hurt her in any way-" She broke off with a grimace. She'd never forgive herself if Tzipporah had been hurt because of her. "She's so young and innocent." She added, and to think that she had almost lost her so many times throughout her pregnancy. Thomas had made it extremely clear that he hadn't wanted Narissa to be pregnant with someone else's child after all.
