Chapter 25

Keith finally slept after Gunn had woken and assured him that he wasn't injured. Jerry kept a close eye on Keith. When the guards were gone, and the lights were turned off, Keith called out to Jerry.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" Jerry fumbled to the edge of his cage.

"Yeah. Why're we all here besides the obvious craziness? Does anyone know where we are?" The hope in Keith's voice was disheartening. As time passed, Jerry had resigned himself to stop hoping.

Jerry sighed and told Keith everything he'd learned about the altered history, how the Braezelas were made by the Anzuni, about the drugs and Geraldon, and about the Anzuni men like himself, now able to carry a baby. He mentioned Stephanos, and called out to him, but only silence reigned. He hadn't expected him to answer. In the end, Jerry had left out the need for royal blood and the pendant. He knew he was to blame for the changes even being possible, and admitting so was too hard.

"You're pregnant?" he heard Gunn ask. "But you're a guy. Wait. What am I saying? I'm a fucking demon now, and I'm in love with one, too."

"You okay, Gunn?" Keith asked, his tone filled with concern and worry.

That confirmed Jerry's suspicions. Keith with a guy. Go figure.

There was a moment of silence, then Gunn said, "Just taking it all in, love."

Rex chuckled morosely. "Takes a while to wrap your head around, for sure."

Gunn only grunted in response.

"I'm pregnant." The meek voice cut through the darkness.

"Stephanos?" Jerry was surprised to hear the man speak. Damn, he'd really hoped his entire theory had been wrong, but he'd known deep down he was right. "How're you doing? I mean..."

Before he could add anything else, Stephanos barked out a hideously, dire laugh. "Fuck if I know. I've been altered, fucked, and now I'm pregnant, and in a cell, and my...my... Well, doesn't matter because he's gone now. Shit couldn't be crazier."

Jerry wanted to ask who, but the cracking he'd heard in Stephanos' voice made him think he couldn't handle talking about more. Luckily, Keith changed the subject. "Rex, you're a Braezelas now, too?"

"I am."

"But you still look like you. Your face isn't changed," Keith insisted.

In that blackness, Jerry heard others shifting, moving, pointing to the fact they weren't sleeping, and were probably listening.

"He was," Jerry confirmed. "When they put us back together in my cage"--his fucking cage--"he reverted to his human form. Tanyon said he couldn't make it happen with the other Braezelas. For some reason, he thought that a mate could somehow bring the change."

"Are you mates?" someone to Jerry's left asked.

Jerry turned toward the sound of the man's voice. "Yes, we are. What's your name? "

"Sal. My mate, Tomasa, and I were taken together. They operated on him." He's sleeping, but I think he's okay. I was changed. I heard one of the masked men mention mates."

"Jerricho and his mate Rex were taken as well," Keith said, and that brought a gasp from Sal.

"Jerricho? Not Prince Jerricho?" His disbelief was apparent in his voice.
