He had been reliving the same day over and over in the prison world, it was his endless punishment to never experience all the things life had to offer. Whilst many people didn't see it that way, Kai was also a victim under your pretences, his father isolated and abused him all because he was born a siphon - an abomination as others had described him as. And now he was a free man, also a heretic, not to mention your life partner.

When you had first met Kai Parker he was curious, not just about the modern world he had escaped back into, but you too. All of your friends had warned you of his newspaper worthy past and all the cruel antics that he was forcing them to endure, however you couldn't relate to the personal and individual pain that he had caused them, it was odd but he never laid harm onto you. He seemed sweet when you were by yourselves, it appeared when it was only the two of you by your lonesomes that he was an ordinary man. He would smile and laugh without the sociopathic demeanour behind his amusement, it was innocent and endearing to the point where you had started to fall for him; the him that was deep down and that nobody else saw.

And now there were no ongoing qualms; nothing to fight other than the stumps that came along in ordinary life, such as attempting to awake Kai on the other side of your bed. He was plagued with an abyss of sleep, snoring into his pillow that his face was adorably mushed into, as the one cheek that you could see was upturned in a calm smile. But it didn't matter how many hours it had been since he had tiredly crashed upon the mattress, there was apparently no such thing as too much sleep for the one and only Kai Parker. Again you pried at his uncovered shoulder, huffing when you once again received no response! It had been all his idea to take you out late morning for something to eat alongside a steaming cup of the best coffee money could buy in Mystic Falls. Another groan surpassed your lips as you realised that there was little to no chance that your boyfriend was going to open his eyes before noon.

"I guess it's just me and you." Your hand gently laid over your stomach as you moves away from the bed; you were already dressed for the day you thought was ahead of you, in a nice flowy shirt that hid your small bump which was forming on your body, and a pair of jeans that you had struggled to get into. When you shortly reached the kitchen you headed straight for the cupboard, stealing Kai's pork rinds as payback for his laziness. It took little time for you to finish eating the remains of the packet as you settled on the couch, distracting yourself with a movie and unbuttoning your tight jeans as you did your best to avoid looking at the passing time. Your hands once again found placement on your belly, soothing yourself by rubbing the babies through the layers of tissue and flesh and blood that separated you from them.

Everything appeared normal as you hoped to feel them kick for your attention, that was until a red glow bloomed around their home and your loving hands. And then you felt it, the shrivelling of strength as they drank from the power that was contained in your witch blood. It was how you had gotten impregnated in the first place; during the act of intimacy, Kai had somehow siphoned out the magic from his vampire side temporarily, therefore making your body susceptible to growing his Gemini seed. "Aargh." The heave made your throat dry, you attempted to reach Kai, but as you stood you tumbled to the carpeted floor, your eyes fluttering closed as your consciousness slipped away and out of your control.

As you awoke, you could hear the muttering of a spell, each phrase desperately surpassing Kai's trembling lips. There were bags drawn boldly beneath his eyes, and a scared craze within them as he looked into your own. The heretic had been terrified when he had surpassed the drowse that had riddled every inch of his body, mind and soul, or there lack of. He had found you drained of magic, much like he had been when he instinctively cuddled you in the night. "What happened?" Your voice was hoarse, and he felt guilty for being powerless in the situation. He should have heard your scream, and realised the obvious truth much much sooner.

"Our babies..." Kai trailed off, thinking this to be all his faulty. "They're like me... siphons..." You should have realised it before all of this - Kai would never forget about a date, he never had before. They had been feeding from him as well, much earlier than he had when he was a baby, at least his powers and abilities had been patient until he had gotten out of the womb of his mother. "It's okay baby," he stroked your face, brushing the hair out of its frame as he cast you a sweet and calming smile despite his nerves. "We will find a way, or a spell, or an artefact that you can drain. We'll do this one step at a time, together, for our babies." He pressed a kiss upon your damp forehead as he helped you up, pulling out his phone so that he could order you both coffee and food to the door of your apartment. His eyebrows scrunched together as his eyes lingered on the coffee table before his eyes finally returned to you. "Did you eat my pork rinds?" It was a fair price you had to say for him knocking you up with his siphon spawn, but you still loved the twins you were carrying, and the man who remained by your side through it all.
