18.

Kali stepped into the main living area and blinked. Max was on his knees talking to a child, and when he spotted her his face took on an almost remorseful look.

He said something to the boy and stood.

Kali shuffled closer, admiring the boy’s astonishing appearance. He was a Hybrid that much was clear from his colouring, and the self-possession in his countenance. He had gorgeous eyes, the kind that could pin you to the spot. His cheeks were chubby and his lips pouty with youth.

Where in the universe had he come from?

“Who is this?”

“I can’t watch,” Max said, scooting past her towards the sofas. “That would be too cruel, even for me.”

Kali was left with the child who stared at her, head cocked. Dressed in a pastel green bodysuit with his hair neatly side-parted, he looked very grown up. He linked his hands behind his back and tapped his foot.

“Kali,” he said matter-of-factly as a greeting. A FetchMe zoomed into the room and landed on his shoulder with a fussy beating of wings. “I am called Caesar.” The stroked the raptor’s off-white breast. “This is Hypatia, Blue’s FetchMe, but she answers to me as well.”

“I’ve met Hypatia. She’s gorgeous.” Kali offered her hand. “Blue never told me he had a brother.”

Caesar took her outstretched hand and gave it firm shakes with his small one, twisting their hands so his was dominantly on top. His babyish face twisted in confusion. “He doesn’t.”

Kali’s smiled faltered. “I’m sorry, who are you?”

“His son.”

The statement echoed in her ears and got louder on each reverberation. Kali jerked upright, forgetting to let go of his hand and yanked him with her. Her exclamation got stuck, and she scratched at her throat. “He never told me that either.”

“Told you what?” Blue asked from the doorway.

Kali spun. Hand shaking, she motioned at Caesar. “Guess who I’ve just met.”

“My son?”

“To use your own words, correct.”

“Your neck is blotchy. Are you having an allergic reaction? I have anti-histamine shots back at medical.”

Kali’s eyes rolled to what would have been skyward if she wasn’t several feet below the earth. “I can’t believe we’re actually having this conversation.” She dragged her nails across her skin, trying to pull down a full breath. “My neck is on fire.”

“I don’t understand.”

She fanned her face and tugged at the collar of her tunic. “Blue, you have a son who is….”

“Six in four months,” Caesar said helpfully, giving her the same baffled look as his father.

“Thanks. Blue, you have a six-in-four-months-year-old son, and you never told me.”

He blinked. “Didn’t think you’d see it as a problem.”

“It’s not. It’s not a problem, but it never crossed your mind to say, “Kali, I have a child,” purely so that my heart didn’t try to leave my chest when I bumped into him?”

“You never asked if I had a son.” He said this pensively, as if that was some kind of explanation.

“Stars!” She curled her fingers into claws and mimicked scratching him. “Ugh.” Kali stormed off.

Blue sighed.

“She is upset I exist.
