I had no idea what to think right now. My father, my actual father was just here. He agreed to teach me how to access my demon. How to fly. I feel like this is a story.

Ashmedai left a few hours ago, claiming he would be back later in the week to talk to me. Kol was cuddled up next to me in my bed.

"Do you think he was being truthful?" I questioned out loud. My worries being voiced to try and relieve some of it. Kol glanced down at me as he turned on his side to meet my gaze.

"Truthful about what?" He questioned, confused on what I was talking about.

"Everything. About how my mother didn't even let him explain or how he isn't a threat to me- us." My hand ran over my belly. "Do you think we can trust him?"

"Trust is something that is earned, Tavia." Kol told me confidently. His fingers grabbing my chin and making me remeet his gaze. "But you have to give a little so he can earn it."

"You are so wise." I smiled at him. Kol grinned before leaning in and pressing his lips to mine.

"I'm wise in other subjects as well-" Kol mumbled against my lips, holding my chin so I stayed in place for him to ravish my mouth.

"Mm, Do you?" I questioned, pulling back slightly with a smirk. "Does that come with age?" I teased playfully. Kol let out a growl in response at my teasing, his fingers applying slight pressure to my chin before recapturing my lips a bit more aggressively. Kol let out a small purr when I kissed him back before pulling back.

"I can assure you, Sweetheart, that my age doesn't affect a single thing." I raised my eyebrow at his suggestion. His finger ran along my throat, hovering over my pulse as his eyes darkened and causing my breath to catch in my throat. Heat radiating throughout my body and flooding to my core.

"Prove it." I breathed out in a challenging tone. Kol closed his eyes, inhaling the scent I knew I was putting out. My thighs pressing together.

"I want to." Kol admitted but he kept still which caused disappointment to weigh my stomach down.

"But?" I hesitated. Kol opened his eyes and met my gaze, restrain clear in his eyes.

"Elijah said that we weren't allowed to..With your blood pressure being dangerous and the stress already on you-" I pulled away from his hold and stared at him a bit confused and shocked, but mostly upset.

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" I snapped as I stood up from the bed. Kol sat up, knowing he probably should have kept that to himself. "He put restrictions on me?? Without telling me!?" I turned around quickly, moving towards the door only for Kol to catch me in his arms, using his vampire speed.

"Hey hey! Calm down." Kol coaxed, his hands holding onto my forearms to keep me in his grasps. "He didn't mean to upset you- I didn't mean to upset you. But we are all just looking out for the baby and your health."

"Fucking me sideways on a dresser isn't going to make my blood pressure rise dangerously!" I watched his eyebrows raise in amusement at my words, but his brown eyes darkened at the idea. I pulled from his grip, grabbing his hand and forcing it to go around my throat. "I won't turn to ash if you grab me by my throat and force me into a wall as you make me scream." Kol's fingers tightened slightly around my throat, the thought intriguing him. "I'm not a fragile child. I'm a grown ass woman." I growled out, my voice sounding doubled. Like an echo of another. Maybe it was my Siren coming out- or maybe my demon. Who knew. All I knew was that I was turned on. I was angry. I needed some kind of relief and Kol was there for the impact.

Kol stared into my eyes as his were nearly black in lust. Veins wiggling underneath to show his fight with his vampire self was a losing war. I lifted my hand up, my nails extending into long talons that held dangerous intentions. Slowly, as Kol watched hungrily, I dragged my talon along the underneath of my collarbone. A stream of blood following in its wake.
