After The War

Chapter 18 Rhys

Rhysand's Pov

I got home late after Azriel had lest to start his mission to court his mate.

And Feyre was already in bed, but she rolled over and watched me in the dark as I undressed.

"Like what you see?" I smirked at her.

"Not really, I've seen it all before."

I could work with the slight insult after seeing her small men icing smile.

"I have news about Azriel."

Feyre shot up onto her elbows and gave me the best shocked face.

"About why he hasn't been himself lately?"

"No about how he wants to run away with you to the circus! What else could it be about?"

She scrunched her eyebrow up at me.

"Sorry I didn't mean to shout. I'm just agitated right now."

Feyre patted the bed and I sat between her legs the back of my head resting on her soft breasts.

"What's got you bothered." She asked running her hands through my hair.

"It's silly I know, but I'm already antsy about your solstice gift to me."

Her hands stopped in my hair, which I didn't like one bit.

"I'm sorry, I feel a bit like that too. But I've gone to the healers in town and they say that there's nothing we can do to speed things up. We just have to wait."

I turned around, only to find my beautiful mate looking ashamed of herself.

"Do not think like that, it's not you that's making this take the time that it is. It's supposed to take time and you can't think that your not good enough if this won't happen right way."

Feyre smiled and turned me back around, "Okay why don't you tell me about Azriel?"

I nodded, but I had a feeling that we were not done having this talk about future children.

"The reason that he's been acting like he has is because from before solstice he has been housing his mate."

Feyre nodded, then abruptly tugged my hair as she squeeled at me and shouted, "He's found his mate?!"

I nodded and she kissed me so hard our teeth clashed.

She rolled off me and started jumping on the new bed we just bought four our new house.

All the while chanting, "Azriel found his mate, Azriel found his mate.!"

"You need to quite down! Azriel doesn't want anyone knowing."

Feyre put a had over her mouth and giggled at me.

"Are you okay?" I asked but she was laughing so hard she started crying and then she was just crying really hard and getting snot everywhere.

"Oh gods darling what's wrong?"

She shook in my arms and then I cough a whiff of her and smelled all her hormones.

"I think my cycle just started." she said through her hysteria.

I nodded and propped her up to go get some tissues.

When I finally found a box, and got back to our room I could smell her blood.

It had a different smell from the blood caused but a wound and my primal side didn't go on attack but protect and care mode.

After giving Feyre the tissues I went to our bathroom and started running a bath.

"Rhy I already had a shower, you think I smelllllll." She sobbed and walled in her hormonal state.

"I know darling but I can smell the blood and if we can get you in the nice bath then we can put your wrappings in and not get any on the sheets."

She looked down at herself and the sheets, and nodded.

I picked her up and carried her to the bathroom.

As I was undressing her I indeed found blood in her panties and she blushed when she found that I had seen.

She still didn't get that I didn't mind.

I put her in the bath and went to our closet, I came back with a set of night clothes for my beautiful mate and set them on the washing basket.

When I turned around Feyre was asleep in the bath.

I quikle got her fresh pair of panties and put her wrapping in so they would be ready when she got out.

Then I quickly went to the bath and washed Feyre so that she would not feel all the snot tears and blood when she got out.

"You're too good to me." Feyre whispered to me as she woke up after I finished washing her.

"Sometimes I don't feel like I am." I whispered back but she had osed her eyes again.

After getting Feyre awake again and put of the bath.

I dressed her and put her back in our bed, then went down state's to get a wheat pack to put on her tummy.

But she was already asleep holding my pillow to her chest.

I put the wheet pack on her back anyway, and went to wash myself before returning to my mate.

I got in behind Feyre with only some undershorts on and pulled her to my chest, with the wheat pack between us.

I would have to get Mor to come and help with Azriel's extra work now that Feyre will not bet well.

But that didn't matter now as I listened to the beat of Feyre's stunning heart, knowing that her cycle was a sign that she was able to make the one thing we both wanted.

It would just take time.

Thank you for reading!!! I hoped you liked it and continue with me I really liked the little bit about fae periods that we got in ACOFAS and I really wanted to do something with that and Feyre wanting to get pregnant.
