Chapter 43: Renaissance Festival
Rose’s POV
Today I’m going on a date with Brent and Damien. Apparently it’s a big secret where we’re going but Damien said it’s about a two hour drive. I’m sitting in the center seat of his truck, smooshed between both boys with my feet hanging out on the dash, singing along to some anime openings.
“Do you even know what they’re saying?” Brent asked me.
“Nope. But I listen to them so much that I know the Japanese words. Besides they energize me!” I tell him. What can I say, I love anime. He hates when I play it because he can’t understand anything they’re saying but I absolutely love it.
After about an hour we stop at a rest stop because I have to pee very badly. Thank you pregnancy.
Brent and Damien head to the men’s restroom while I find the women’s. I do my business, wash my hands, exit the restroom and almost run into someone. “Ooof. So sorry.” I tell the guy that was right outside the door. He grunted at me and just moved to the side, still looking at me. I scurry to the truck where the guys were waiting for me. That guy gave me the creeps. I look around making sure he didn’t follow me.
“Are you ok babe? What are you looking for?” Damien asked me.
“I ran into someone outside the women’s restroom and he gave me the creeps.” I tell him as I shudder.
He reached around my shoulders and pulled me against him. “Don’t worry babe, I won’t let anything happen to you. Let’s head back on the road.” He kissed my forehead and we all hopped back in the truck to head back out.
After another hour on the road we finally reach our destination. A renaissance festival! I jump in my seat giddily.
“I thought you’d like it.” Damien said while Brent chuckled.
We exit the red dodge truck and I’m fitted between both the guys, each holding one of my hands. I notice a lot of people giving us strange looks but I don’t care. They’re just jealous that I get both of these hotties. I giggle to myself, earning an eyebrow raise from Brent.
“People probably think I have a twin fetish.” I wiggle my eyebrows at the guys.
“For our plans tonight you’ll see how very different we are.” Damien winked at me. I’m suddenly overwhelmed by all the scents around us and I get hit with a strong craving for blood. Oh no. Damn it babies, give me a break! I squeeze the guys hands and pull them down towards me so I can whisper to them both at once. “I need blood badly.” I admit sheepishly. Damien nods at me and pulls me to the side so we can hide behind a tree. Brent stands guard and Damien motions for me to start feeding. I give him a grateful smile and go to drink from his neck. To an outsider we probably look like a couple that can’t keep their hands off each other. I’m sucking from his neck while he groans and grabs my ass. Fuck now I’m horny.
“Baby girl stop. I can smell your arousal.” I hear Brent whisper in my ear.
I begrudgingly stop and lick Damien’s neck clean. We peek around the tree and no one seemed to notice what we were up to. I take a deep breath in and try to calm my horny ass down. I smile at my sexy men and then we head up to the front to purchase tickets for entrance.
Brent’s POV
I can feel Rose trying to calm herself down through the mate bond. Ever since she became pregnant she’s been insatiable, especially when feeding. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. Especially when she walks in front of me and I see her juicy ass swaying back and forth. Fuck it. I give her a smack on the ass earning a yip from her. She turns and narrows her eyes at me. I know she’s a bit annoyed but honestly it was worth it to see that ass jiggle.
I’ve always been the more sexual of the brothers while Damien’s always been the bigger romantic. But when I look at Rose I see my whole world revolving around her and now also our children. I wonder if they’ll look like her or look like me? I chew on my lip ring while I think about our babies. I never saw myself as much of a family man but Rose changed everything. I’m thankful to the gods for giving her to me. Do I like having to share her? Not really but she’s worth it. Tonight Damien and I are planning to take her to a fancy hotel and give her a classic twin fantasy, both of us at the same time. I’ve slowly been playing with her asshole to get her ready to take us there also. I think tonight she’ll be finally ready.
We wander around the festival grounds for awhile. Rose is sitting between us right now as we watch a guy juggling fire. I look over at her and enjoy the happiness I see shining in her eyes.
After we finish up with the fire guy Rose oohs and aahs over different handmade jewelry. Damien bought her a set of earrings that were made with moonstone and right now she’s looking at a fairy necklace that holds a small corked bottle filled with what looks like glitter.
“It’s fairy dust!” The merchant exclaims. Rose nods her head excitedly and turns her head to look at me with puppy dog eyes. I can’t resist her and I purchase the necklace for her.
“You know it’s not really fairy dust right?” I tease her.
She stuck her tongue out at me. “Duh! But it’s cute anyway.”
We wander around until we end up in front of a psychic stand. I give the air a sniff. Witch. What is it with witches and festivals?
“Ma’am let me read the cards for you.” The witch beckons at Rose. She gives the witch a nod and goes closer. Damien and I crowd Rose just in case something goes wrong.
“Calm down boys, this woman is pregnant and part witch. I would never harm one of my own.”
Rose gaped at her. She must not have smelled the witch in her which is a bit concerning.
The woman grasped Rose’s hands and mumbled some sort of incantation in a strange language. She then pulls a deck from underneath the table and begins to shuffle while muttering some sort of phrase over and over. She then lays the deck on the table and flips over a card.
Rose’s POV
“The six of cups. This is your present or immediate future, it means someone could be returning from your past, it signifies reunion, memories, and ease.” I nod silently and wait for her to continue. She grabs another card and lays it sideways on top of the first one. “Nine of wands. Soon you will be facing roadblocks and possible have a test of faith.” She grabs another card from the top of the deck and lays it above the others. “The ten of cups. Your current goal and your immediate destiny is focused on a long term relationship, family building and a happy ending.” I grin at this card. Brent squeezes my hand and I shoot a smile his direction. She grabs another card and places it to the right of the first two cards. “The seven of swords. In the distant past you faced deception, someone was lying to you.” I immediately thought of Mason, of my parents adopting me, of my real parents. There’s so much that could pertain to. She grabbed another card and placed it underneath the first two cards. “The high priestess. Recently you’ve gained spiritual insight and power. Secrets came to light and you’re becoming more intuitive.”
She grabbed another card and placed it on to the left of the spread. “Your future shows Death.” I frowned immediately at this. “Now don’t worry. Death isn’t necessarily saying you’re about to die. It refers to increased self awareness brought on by loss or endings. It can refer to an intense sudden change.” Relieved I heaved out a breath.
“You ok dear? Only four more cards.” She asked me.
“Yes. That last card startled me.” I admitted. She nodded and continued. To the right of the cards she flipped over the next one.
“Wheel of fortune. A drastic change is coming that will align you with your higher purpose.” She immediately flipped another card and place it above the previous card. “Five of wands. There will be arguing and fighting around you soon. There may be resistance and the fighting may be about you.” She grabbed another card and placed it above, “Two of swords. You’ll likely become confused and come to a crossroads where you’re forced to make a difficult decision. Ok honey this next one is the last card.” I nodded and she placed one more card above the previous one. “Queen of wands.” The lady grinned at me. “Don’t worry honey, this card signifies that you’ll ultimately be filled with confidence and you’ll grow into a strong willed woman.” I sit there for a minute and digest all the information she laid out. I can’t help but worry about some of the near future stuff she mentioned, even though eventually it will all work out. I don’t want to experience loss or be faced with hard decisions. I may be a hybrid but I’m still only an 18 year old girl. I get hit with a sense of melancholy and sigh.
“Ok that’ll be $25.” She stated at the boys. Damien pulled out his wallet and paid her.
“Don’t worry babe, that stuff is usually a crock of shit. I just let you do it because I thought you’d have fun. Don’t take it to heart. The stress isn’t good for you and for Edward and Bella.” Brent said.
I barked out a laugh and punched him in the arm.
“We aren’t naming them after Twilight characters!” I huffed out. The guys burst out laughing and each grabbed one of my hands and we headed to the festival exit.
