What do you wish for? (complete)

Chapter 33

As I lay back against the pillows and she lay her head on my chest we continued to talk.

I knew that talking to her and taking her mind off of her vision. Would help her to relax so that she could go back to sleep. To help with that as we talked I ran my fingers through her glorious hair. She was the most beautiful woman that I had ever seen, and her hair was her crowning glory. Then came those reveal all eyes of hers.

"So, we have two sets of triplets?"

She laughed, "no... well I don't know. I just told you that I was pregnant to try and buy time to escape."

"Oh, ok. Do you want more than just these three children, Roza?"

"Yes, I want several children with you."

"Good, I am glad."

"What about you? How many do you want?"

"As many as you are willing to give me."

"Well, I was actually thinking about six maybe even seven."

"Really?"

"Unless you don't want that many."

"I think I remember saying, that I want as many as you are willing to give me. Isn't that what I said?" I teased.

"Yes." We both chuckled.

After laying quietly together for a while. I said, "you should talk to your grandmother and get her to start the building of the new palace in Russia. Unless you want to wait to do it after you take over."

"I will talk to her when we get to court. I don't know how much convincing it will take. Therefore, I doubt that it will happen right away."

"Well, thankfully we have at least five almost six years. And thankfully after those five years are over you take over the running of our world. Just in case your grandmother doesn't want to move court while she is still in power. At least you will be able to get started and in the mean time we can send the children to school at court."

"Yes, thankfully. But I am hoping that she is ok with it, so we can get started sooner rather than later." She murmured as she fell back to sleep. And shortly after she did so did I.

Due to the horrific dream/vision that Roza had last night I let her sleep until she woke on her own. But then we both did that every day now. But while she slept I spoke with everyone else about a few very important things.

"Guys, last night after that dream or vision or whatever you want to call it that Roza had. She told me that tonight is the night for our encounter with the strigoi in the French Quarter. So, I want all of you even you Vika. To make sure that all of your weapons are clean and ready to be used."

They all nodded.

"Did she tell you what exactly her dream or vision was about?" Mason asked.

"Yes, she did. She said that shortly after we send the kids to St. Vlad's, which we aren't doing anymore, that there was an attack on the campus. Our children and several other people were taken by the strigoi. Everyone in this hotel suite as well as some others, who she didn't say. Went into the caves in the mountains behind the academy to get our children and the other captives out. We got the children and the others back, but I was turned and taken to Novosibirsk. She came after me, but I captured her and tried to get her to let me turn her. She refused saying that she pregnant and that she had to be there for our children. I told her that we could take the children, and after she gave birth to the ones that she was carrying. That when they were all old enough we could turn them too. Needless to say, eventually she restored me. Now, because of this dream/vision she flat refuses to send the children to St. Vladimir's and I in no way blame her for that. She even refuses to go back there at all unless there is no other choice."
