Butterscotch Souls: The Morningstar Series: Book 4
Butterscotch Souls – Chapter 37

“You’re pregnant.” He said as a huge smile spread across his face.

“W-what?” I breathed out.

Ambrose pressed his ear back to my stomach.

“I can hear it’s heartbeat.” He told me.

I put my hand on my stomach above his head.

“You can?” I asked as tears filled my eyes.

Ambrose nodded with his ear still pressed to me.

“This makes so much sense.” He whispered. “Your emotions, how horny you’ve been, the appetite, that strange look you get when Tate feeds, all of it.” He said.

I frowned. “I don’t get a strange look when Tate feeds.” I said.

Ambrose chuckled and stood to his feet. He kissed my nose and tied my robe back up. I frowned at him the entire time.

“Baby you do. I think you might be thirsty.” He told me as he grabbed my hand and began pulling me out of the bathroom.

“Thirsty?” I asked.

Ambrose pulled me to the kitchen. Tate was watching TV and looking extremely grumpy. When he noticed us he rolled his eyes dramatically.

“Finally! Daddy you just left! I thought we were gonna eat.” He scolded his father.

“I know buddy I’m sorry. Hop up in your chair and I will bring you a big plate. We can have ice cream later to make up for it.” Ambrose told him.

Tate beamed. “Okay Daddy!”

I shook my head. Tate has his father wrapped around his little finger. It’s adorable.

Ambrose ushered for me to sit at the table as well. Tate looked me up and down, probably wondering why I am just in a bathrobe. I shrugged at him and he seemed to lose interest. Then his food was set in front of him and he beamed.

I also beamed. Tacos. I hope they’re spicy. Ambrose set down a plate with six tacos in front of me. They even look authentic. I looked up at my mate and smiled.

“They’re spicy don’t worry. And here is some hot sauce.” He told me and then walked back into our kitchen.

I watched as he frantically threw a b***d bag into the microwave. He brought Tate a cup before repeating this process. When he finally came back out with his own plate he set down a cup of b***d in front of me. I turned a frown to him.

“I told you that I think you’re thirsty.” He said like that was all the explanation I needed.

I raised a brow at him. “I’m not a Vampire.” I said.

“I know you aren’t but I think you might be craving it because of the…” Ambrose trailed off as he looked to our son.

Tate is watching us with curiosity in his eyes.

“I’ll try it okay?” I told him grumpily.

If I am going to be honest, I have been craving it. I’ve known it. I just have been ignoring it. I had no idea why I would be interested in trying b***d and it freaked me out. You’d think I would have put two and two together by this point.

I grabbed the cup and brought the straw to my lips. Sucking up I watched as the b***d came up the straw and then filled my mouth. A low g***n tumbled from deep in my throat as I sucked and sucked. I drank the whole thing. I set the cup down and cleared my throat.

“That was weird.” I said softly.

Ambrose chuckled. “No it wasn’t baby. It’s perfectly normal. Didn’t you crave b***d when you were pregnant with Tate?” He asked.

I looked down at Tate to see him in the middle of a big bite.

“No. I mean, I don’t think so. If I did I never had any. The closest I got was asking for my burgers as raw as I could get them.” I told my mate.

Ambrose grabbed my hand under the table and I turned back to him.

“Well, some of the pregnancies for my mom were different too. I found out a lot when Relly got pregnant with her first. Maybe this one-“

I put my hand over his mouth to stop him. Ambrose raised his brow at me and I looked down the table at our son. Tate doesn’t seem to be interested in our conversation thankfully. Then I looked back at Ambrose and removed my hand.

You don’t want to tell him? He asked me through our link.

I shrugged.

We just found out ourselves. Like two minutes ago. Should we tell him right away? I asked.

I don’t see why it would hurt to tell him but if you want to wait a few days we can. Ambrose told me.

Maybe we should wait to tell him until tomorrow. We could announce it at the barbeque if you want. I suggested.

Ambrose smiled brightly at me. Nothing but pure giddiness and joy flowed through our bond from him. He’s completely ecstatic about this. I am too.

This is what we both wanted since the moment I got here. I should be scared considering what is happening with the Gods right now, but I’m not. Ambrose and I are having another baby. He will get to be here for the first steps, the birth, everything that he missed with Tate. And Tate will be the best big brother.

There was one time when Tate begged me to give him a sibling to play with. He even told me he didn’t care if it was a boy or a girl he just didn’t want to be alone. Now I can give him that. I can give them both what they missed out on.

I would like that a lot. Ambrose told me.

“Is Mommy gonna start drinking b***d now?” Tate asked knocking us out of our private conversation.

“Yeah butterscotch I am.” I told him.

I was hoping that Ambrose would have some sort of reason as to why. That would be Tate’s next question I’m sure. Our son nodded to me like this was totally normal. Maybe he thought it was because he started drinking b***d out of no where?

Maybe he would make his own reasons.

“Is it because of my little sister?” Tate asked.

Ambrose and I both froze. I was about to take a bite of my taco when Tate asked that. My eyes flickered to Ambrose. He stared down the table at our son.

“You’re little sister?” Ambrose asked our son.

I looked down to see Tate nod.

“Yeah. She’s in Momma’s belly right now. Like Belle with Ziggy’s little brother. I asked Skoll why babies are in our momma’s bellies and he told me that they have to bake before they can come out. I don’t know what that means though.” Tate told us.

My jaw dropped.

“Tate how did you know that I have a baby inside of me?” I asked my son.

Tate shrugged.

“I just know. Like with Ziggy’s brother. I just know. Skoll said he could smell it a few days ago when we all went for a run together.” He said.

I looked at Ambrose who just stared at our son. Finally he turned back to me. A smile spread across his handsome face and he leaned in to k**s me.

“We’re having a daughter.” He whispered against my lips. “I’m going to have two kids.” He said.

I giggled as tears filled my eyes. “She better look like me.” I said making Ambrose laugh.

*********************************************

The rest of our evening went great. Instead of going on the nightly run, or me meditating, we all sat down and watched a movie and had ice cream. Ambrose tucked Tate in bed and then joined me back in the living room. I’m sprawled out on the couch and still in my robe. I was determinded to spend my evening in it and I did.

“You look mighty fine like that momma bear.” Ambrose said as his eyes raked across my body.

With just one look I’m instantly ready to finish what we started in the bathroom earlier. I sat up on the couch and patted the cushion next to me. Ambrose shook his head but sat down anyways. I think he knows that I’m horny, even though I was trying to hide it.

As soon as he sat down I straddled him. If he is going to know already I might as well not waste any time. Not that I think I could anyways.

I ran my hands up Ambrose’s chest until I pushed them through his hair. After tugging his hair tie out I tossed it behind me. Then I pushed my fingers back through his beautiful blonde locks. Ambrose g*****d and closed his eyes as I started to rub his head.

“Ya know..” I started. “I don’t think you’ve fed from me since you marked me.” I said.

Ambrose’s eyes opened. His deep blues are dark with l**t. My breath hitched when his hands squeezed my h**s.

“You want me to feed from you?” He asked me.

I nodded. “Very much.” I admitted.

Ambrose smirked. “This pregnancy has you feeling all kinds of horny doesn’t it.” He teased as he brought his mouth to my cheek.

“Maybe it’s just you.” I said.

Ambrose chuckled against my skin causing me to shiver. “Maybe. Guess only time will tell.” He said.

My mate started to place soft k****s along my jaw. He reached between us and undid the fuzzy belt of my robe. Then Ambrose reached up and gently pushed the robe off of my shoulders.

I looked at him as he stared at my chest. His fangs are sticking out from his top l*p causing a wave of anticipation to crash over me. Ambrose dipped his head down to press his lips to my mark.

“Wait.” He said and I pouted.

“What?” I asked as he pulled back.

Ambrose smirked giving me a better look of his fangs.

“I wish that I’m naked.” He said.

At first I frowned. Then I felt the magic start to swirl inside of me. I couldn’t help but let it take over to grant my mates wish.

“Your wish is my command.”

When my eyes came back into focus Ambrose is still smirking. I looked down to see him completely naked. His rock hard c**k is pressed against my a*s. I giggled as Ambrose’s eyes raked over me again.

“Now, where were we?” He asked and then returned his lips to my mark.

I m****d as Ambrose started sucking on my mark. His fangs brushed against my skin and I shivered. Then I felt them pierce my skin. I let out a loud m**n as Ambrose sank his teeth into me.

Being fed on feels much better than I thought it would. Is this why I wanted it so badly? Did some part of me already know it would feel this good? And f**k, does it feel good.

I lifted my h**s up and moved so that Ambrose’s member is in front of me instead of behind me. The more he sucked from me the hornier I got. I started to move myself up and down so that my p***y lips rubbed around him.

Ambrose g*****d around my skin. My m***s grew louder and louder. My movements getting faster and faster.

“Ambrose..” I m****d out. “Mmmmm, don’t stop Daddy.”

Ambrose let out a low growl. He gripped my h**s harshly and lifted me up. Ambrose slammed me down on his c**k without removing his teeth from me. I let out an almost scream at the harshness of everything.

My mate bit down even harder on me as he bounced me on his d**k. I barely had any control at all as he used me to f**k himself.

“Ambrose.. Yes.. Yes. Yes!” I screamed.

Finally, my mate released his teeth from me. He didn’t stop bouncing me up and down though. Ambrose leaned back and our eyes connected. He has a little bit of b***d dripping down the corner of his mouth.

I pressed my lips to his in a frenzy. The taste of my own b***d on his tougne is hot as f**k. My o****m is building up.

Suddenly we were teleported to our bedroom. I’m still on top of Ambrose. He’s sitting on our bed and is still bouncing me up and down. I tugged on his hair and that only made him go rougher.

“Yes! Ambrose..” I m****d out.

“Let’s see if we can get you to squirt again.” Ambrose said.

He brought his lips to my jaw and nibbled down on me. My o****m is so close. Ambrose moved his lips down my neck, nibbling all the way down to my mark. The moment he sucked on it I came.

“Ambrose!” I shouted out in a m**n.

My mate didn’t let up. He kept moving me roughly, forcing me to swallow him up over and over again. He’s so rough and fast and it feels so f*****g good.

“f**k Epperly. Your greedy little p***y just can never get enough of me. So f*****g wet and tight.” His voice is so low, so loving.

My p***y clentched and Ambrose g*****d.

“That’s right baby. Don’t stop squeezing me. Don’t stop cumming for me.” He ordered.

I’m panting and moaing. I feel like I have no control over my body as he f***s me relentlessly. Ambrose’s body tensed and I knew I was about to be filled with his seed. This is my favorite part. I hope he keeps f*****g me after. I don’t want to be done.

Ambrose grunted loudly and I felt him shoot his c*m inside of me. His hold on me loosened but I made sure to keep bouncing on him. There is something so hot about continuing to f**k him after he cums in me. I love it.

I pushed on Ambrose’s chest until he fell back on the bed. His hands returned to my h**s but he didn’t interrupt my pace. I might not be as fast as Ambrose is but I am just as rough.

My eyes rolled back and I ground myself onto my mate over and over again. Ambrose reached around us and smacked my a*s. f**k, that was hot. My hands rested on his chest as something more started to build in me.

My o****m had never stopped, just like usual. This is exactly how I felt in the weapons shed. The feeling bubbled up and up and up until..

“Ambrose! Yes! Yes!” I screamed out as the feeling crashed over me.

It’s like an o****m but a million times more intense. Ambrose rocked me on his c**k as I rode out the o****m. It wasn’t dying down though.

“f**k baby.. You squirted and you’re still going.” Ambrose breathed out as he continued to rock me. “You’re so f*****g wet baby. I can feel you dripping down my balls.” He told me.

I m****d again.

Ambrose lifted me up and out of me completely. I whimpered but didn’t have to stay empty for long. With amazing speed, Ambrose placed me on my stomach, lifted my a*s high in the air, and rammed himself back inside of me. He was so quick that my o****m didn’t have time to die down. I never knew o*****s could last this long.

My mate f****d me just as roughly as we started. His grip on my h**s and a*s cheeks is so harsh that I was sure he would leave marks. That made me even wetter. My body feels like it’s buzzing. Ambrose grunted loudly and I felt his member twitch inside of me. He thrusted into me a couple more times before stopping.

My o****m finally died down and Ambrose pulled all the way out of me. A low whimper left my lips and I slumped onto the bed. Ambrose plopped down next to me and I rolled over to face him. He rolled onto his side and stared at me lovingly.

“You’re glowing.” He said.

“Huh?” I asked as I tried to catch my breath.

“You. You’re glowing. Right now.” He told me with a wide smile. “You look so beautiful, like a Goddess.” He said.

I looked down at my body to see that I am indeed glowing. The same way that Selene and Venus glow. Is this the light that they talked about me having? Or is this something different?

“Are my eyes still yellow?” I asked my mated.

Ambrose brushed some of my hair from my face. His smile is still wide. There is nothing but love and adoration in his deep blues.

“Hello Adria.” He said confidently.

I felt a strong push inside of my head. She’s trying so hard to get out, to connect with me. But I am too exhausted to push back.

“She likes it when you talk to her. I feel her fight harder.” I told my mate.

Ambrose propped himself up on his elbow. He wrapped an arm around me and pulled me close to him. His scent wrapped around me and a low growl sounded from deep in my chest.

My mate dipped his head down until his lips were next to my ear.

“I can’t wait for you to come out and play with us Adria.” His voice is so low and deep. “Kohen is shaking with excitement.” I felt his teeth scrape my earlobe.

Suddenly I stopped feeling the push from my wolf. You would think that with the mention of her mate that she would push harder, but no. She stopped completely and I no longer felt her. A small whimper sounded from me.

“What’s wrong baby?” Ambrose asked me as he pulled back to look into my eyes.

“She stopped pushing.” I said.

I knew that Ambrose could see in my eyes that she was no longer here. No longer pushing to get out. I’m not sure if he is disappointed or not, I can’t look at his face.

“Don’t get discouraged baby. She probably can just tell how tired you are. Adria knows that you’re pregnant baby, she is probably just thinking about our pup.” Ambrose reassured me.

A small smiled fell on my lips. “Pup huh?” I asked amused.

Ambrose returned my smile. “Well, Tate was a pup too. You just didn’t know it.” He said.

I giggled. “I guess you are right.” I said.

My mate kissed my forehead. “You are getting closer Epperly. Adria surfaces a lot more now.” He said.

I sighed. “I just want to hear her, to shift, to feel what you and Tate feel.” I told him.

Ambrose started running a hand up and down my back. “Soon you will hear her. I know it. As for shifting… You’ll have to wait at least five months.” He told me.

I looked up at him with a frown. “Why?” I asked.

Ambrose stared down at me like I am the most beautiful creature on the planet.

“You can’t shift when you’re pregnant.” He said. “Well, I guess you could but I doubt your wolf would let you. It’s too dangerous for the baby.” He told me.

I pouted.

“How unfair. I swear, if this little girl doesn’t look like me…” I trailed off with my empty threat.

Ambrose chuckled.

“I think she will. I hope she will. I don’t need you being all sulky about another child of ours looking just like me.” He teased.

I huffed.

“Tate just could have at least gotten something from me. Like my complexion or hair color. But no, he looks just like you.” I grumbled out.

Ambrose chuckled again.

“He has a bit of your complexion, you have to admit that.” He said but I refused. “He also has those golden flecks in his eyes like you.” He said.

“Yeah, his blue eyes that match yours.” I stated.

“He puts his finger to his chin when he thinks, the same way you do. You both scrunch up your faces the same way when your confused. You both have that same fire in you. Neither of you are afraid to tell it how it is. Tate is so much more like you than you realize my love.” Ambrose told me.

I thought about what Ambrose told me. Is that really all true? Have I just not noticed how much Tate has picked up on the things I do? Is my son really more like me than I realized?

No one has ever been around us long enough to tell me. In fact, I don’t think anyone has ever even mentioned anything about my son looking like me. I remember one altercation with a random lady when Tate was three. He had come to work with me and was sitting in a booth while I waitressed.

An older white lady had come in and ended up starting a huge scene because she said that Tate wasn’t mine. That I had to of kidnapped him because he looks nothing like me. I had scooped Tate up and ran before the police could show up. We left town that night. I cried for days about it.

“What are you thinking about?” Ambrose asked me.

“Just what it was like with Tate.” I told him. “No one has ever even said we look alike. There were lots of times that people didn’t even believe he was mine. It was hard but… It feels so nice to be recognized for the first time.” I admitted as tears filled my tears.

“He is yours. Anyone who can’t see it is an i***t. He smells just like you and I.” Ambrose told me.

I gave him a bored look. “Humans can’t scent the way we can.” I told him.

“Humans don’t matter in our world.” Ambrose said and then kissed my forehead again.

I sighed. He’s right. For so long they did matter in my life. It feels like so long ago now though. It’s only been a couple of weeks but it feels like a lifetime. I’m so happy that Selene gave me this life, this mate. I snuggled into Ambrose more.

“Can you believe that Tate told us the gender already?” I asked with a laugh.

“He’s quite the smarty.” Ambrose said.

I nodded in agreement. “How do you think he knew?” I asked.

Ambrose shurgged and began running his hands through my hair. “I probably should have admitted this to you already but.. My siblings and I, our children, it’s hard to know what to expect.” He told me.

I lifted my head to look at him.

“What do you mean?” I asked.

“There are no other creatures like my siblings and I. My mother and her siblings are the first tribrids, something that most other supernaturals think are an abomination to nature. Then my mother procreated with a son of the Devil. Creating an entirely new race of supernaturals. Mom says it was a lot of learning as they went. The same goes for my children. There isn’t another Vampire-Werewolf-Witch-Demon-God-Djin around is there?” He asked with a chuckle.

“Our children are all going to be different and unique. Some of the things they do won’t make sense but they are who they are. Our job is to guide them.” Ambrose told me.

I nodded. “Okay so, you think he just.. knew? Like a vision or something?” I asked.

Ambrose shrugged.

“Could be something like that. If it makes you feel better, Wrenly, Relly and Ryce’s oldest, was the same way when she was a baby. She knew that her mom was pregnant and what she was having everytime. She also knew when Tia was pregnant the first time.” Ambrose told me.

“Tate isn’t alone Epperly. He will never be alone. Not only are we going to give him just as many siblings as I had…. He also will have cousins. My family grows and grows. He will never be alone in this world.” My mate assured me.

I smiled at him.

“Okay. I believe you. I’ll relax about it.” I told him. “But I am not having 12 kids.” I said making him laugh. “Maybe 8 though.” I said with a shrug.

Ambrose laughed at me and then pressed his lips to mine.

“Let’s get some sleep my love. We have a busy day tomorrow.” He said.

Ambrose and I moved to lay in our bed the right way. We got under the covers and snuggled up to each other. I laid my head on my mates chest and listened to his heart beat.

“Should we think of names?” I asked and then yawned. “I think you should get to name this one since I named Tate.” I offered.

“Hmmm okay.” My mate hummed out. “How about Calliope? Callliope Sandra Morningstar.” He said.

I smiled as my eyes fluttered shut.

“I love it. Little Calliope.” I mumbled right before sleep claimed me.
