A Court of Light And Dark

chapter 9

I woke to the smell of bacon and toast coming from the kitchen. I was still beyond tired and wanted to sleep, but i knew i needed to get something to eat. I looked over to see neither Nathain nor Rhys in bed.

Stretching i got up slowly and took my time, but eventually i made it to to kitchen. I looked at the sight i saw, of Rhys holding Nathain while still cooking breakfast. "Good morning" i heard a voice say, and turned around to see Mor stand behind me. I smiled, "indeed it is a good morning." Mor smiled and gave me a hug, then helped me walk over to Rhys and Nathain. Rhys looked at me and smiled. "Still stuborn i see. You know the nurse said to be on bed rest until youve healed. " i rolled my eyes, "I'm fine. Promise" i sat down at the table and Mor brought me Nathain, i smile in awe, "Hes been a little fussy since we all woke. I think he wants his mama." I smiled and chuckled take Nathain into my arms, her was a spitting image of Rhys and I, and i could see some of my Fathers features in him too. I held him close to me, afraid of the truth of what might happen. Everything a perfect, but without knowing exactly what the queens are planning, theres no way of knowing what will happen in the next couple of months, or even years.

Rhys came in with two plates of food. By that time i had started feeding Nathain, and he was happily enjoying his food. 'So will i ever get to feel the same as Nathain, Feyre Darling' Rhys asked throught the bond, i looked at him and rolled my eyes, 'No, this is for the baby, although maybe once ive healed we can do something. ' i said down the bond, not looking at him, because i already knew he had a smirk as he was already planning. I eat my breakfast, only looking at Rhys here and there, but he stared at him as he eat, i knew he was still planning something. Thats when an image was sent down the bond, one of me under him. I stopped eating, and looked up at Rhys, he smirks then chuckled alittle. "Will you both stop that. There's a baby in the room, and we came in to eat. " i looked up to see Cassian, i smiled and chuckled a laugh. "Of course we will stop, wont we Rhys?" I looked at Rhys, he smile and nodded. 'Oh, the things i have planned for once you are well enough.' Rhys said down the bond, there was a happy git in his voice, that made me cautious when i looked up at jim once more, only to see his face in pain, as i heard a thud from under the table, i chuckled, and knew that it was Amren who kicked him.

"So, are there any reports on the Mortal Queens?" Asked Rhys to Az, he only shook his head, the thought of how silent the queens had been sent my blood cold, i didnt want to end up in another battle, especially since Rhys and i just had Nathain. Rhys reacted across the table and grabbed my hand, i knew tr hat moment, that my sheilds had been down, i didnt blame myself, but i put them back to the black Adament that they usually are. Rhys squeezed my hand in comfort, 'we'll figure it out.' He said down the bond.
