"What is it?" the masked man asks.

"The girl is of no use to us now, none of them are"

"Why?"

"Their blood it's of no use and we should focus on others and leave them"

"That is not what I asked"

"Even the child's blood is fouled"

"Master will not like this" he states.

"Then we need to focus on others"

"It's not so easy, not after they got the sniff"

"I am sorry, but this is all I can give you now go before someone catches you" he warns the masked man and he walks back into the shadow.

A voice makes him stop so he dodges back in to the shadow and watches as the girl Tulip makes her way out of the car and rush towards her house, he thinks nothing as he turns to go back but someone stepping out of the car halts him.

"Damon Price" he breathes under his breathe before disappearing in the shadow.

*******

Grace smiles as she holds her grandchild in her arms cooing at her while Gracie walks to get some warm water.

"How is everything back home?" Nicholas asks his daughter as he touches his granddaughter's fingertips.

"Ask your granddaughter, she wakes up at ungodly hour and does not let me sleep" she pouts.

"Just like her mother" he teases before wrapping his arms around his daughter.

"Oh you" she pinches her father's sides making him jump.

"She has been well, yes?" he asks worried as he was not around when Tracie had been sick.

"Dad, she is fine don't worry"

"I will even if you say no" he smiles kissing on top of her hair.

"I missed you and mom so much"

"We did too"

"How's Nonna?" she asks.

"Doing well, she will be staying with Cole"

"Why not here?" she asks in confusion.

"Because she thinks while everyone has settled down she needs to take extra care of her grandson so he gives her beautiful great grandkids" Grace replies making Gracie giggle.

"I wonder who will be his bride" she wonders.

"Whoever she is, she will arrive on her own time" Nicholas speaks making Grace shut.

"Mom you are looking for brides for brother?" Gracie asks in excitement.

"But your father stops me every time, he thinks I should mind my business but Nicholson is my son and I worry"

"It's not your worry that worries me, actually it's both of yours curiosity that kills me" he speaks making both of them giggle.

"But you love us" Gracie grins at her father who smiles.

"More than anything" he admits before he pulls his wife on his side as well.

*******

"Did you consult with the doctor's about her rashes?" Nicholas asks as he hands Tracie to his wife.

"Aww dad, I told you not to pick her off often now look at you" his daughter laughs as he starts to unbutton his shirt his granddaughter ruined by peeing in it.

"She is too cute to put down" he sighs as he hurries to change.

"If this goes on, your grandfather will have nothing to wear" Gracie scolds her daughter who giggles.

"Let her be, it's your father's punishment for not being much around when you and Nicholson were growing up" Grace comments.

"There goes your mother bad mouthing her loyal husband" Nicholas comments as he walks out with a fresh shirt on.

"I only spoke truth" she jabs and he pulls her in for a kiss.

"PDA" Gracie shouts covering both her and Tracie's eyes while her parents back off.

*******

"Daddy is here" Gracie coos to her daughter as she carries her daughter and walks towards Tristan who smiles as he takes his daughter who squeals seeing him.

"Has she been difficult?" Tristan asks as he kisses Gracie's forehead.

"Nope, hardly get to have her. Mom and dad had her occupied" she replies hugging him.

"Want to leave her here for few days?" he suggests making her laugh.

"Daddy is naughty" she giggles before stopping as he parents walks in.

"Came to take them?"' Grace asks and Tristan smiles.

"I can leave them few more days" he offers.

"If you want a couch when she is back then sure" Nicholas jokes.

"She has been finding a perfect place to pee on actually, her grandfather's arms" Gracie points out and as if knowing they were talking about her Tracie gurgles clapping her hands.

"Stay for dinner" Nicholas asks and Tristan nods his head as they head towards the living room.

*******

"Drive safely" Grace calls as she waves her hands and watches her daughter drive off before sighing.

"We can see them soon" Nicholas assures as he hugs her.

"She looks so happy"

"He is her happiness"

"I am glad she found one" Grace nods.

"Hmm" he agrees before they make their way in.

Nicholas phone buzzes making him frown as he asks Grace to walk inside before taking the call.

"Price" he speaks before checking on his watch.

"Sure will be there is few" he states before cutting the line.

Nicholas asks Grace to not wait for him before making his way out. He drives off to the said place and gets out. He stops as he finds his son's car before walking in.

"I thought you will be back next week" he states seeing Nicholson who nods his head.

"The meeting wrapped sooner than we expected"

"Good, so where are others?" he asks as he finds the house too silent.

"Some of us needs pee break" Gabriel voice makes him smiles.

"Hope you did not break yourself while peeing" he states back.

"Enough with pee jokes" Damien cuts in.

"Why are we even here for?" Gabriel asks as he looks around.

"Eric, he found somethings for us" Damien asks before Eric walks in.

*******

"I hope I did not bothered you all much" Eric smiles as he looks around the men.

"No, so what did you found?"

"The secret to your blood" he sighs as he takes a seat.

"Secret to our blood?" he frowns.

"Yes, well rest assure after I took some sample of your blood I found that there is a way to stop this insanity"

"And?" Gabriel asks curiously.

"While at first I thought what was so different to Tulip and Tristan. I mean while Gracie stopped Tristan's shift Tulip was already a wolf yet it's gone now...

The situation were different but the solution was same, one bite from your mate and the power the blood hold ends"

"You mean Damon's bite killed the wolf inside Tulip?" Damien frowns.

"Yes and also biting her killed the power Damon had with in his blood, I have kept his blood cell alive for many days but now it's as normal as any human blood...

And that brings me back to you three, while Nicholas blood has no power any longer I would like you two to try and bite your wives while mating...

If they are your true mates, the power your blood has which threatens our very existence will die"

"What if it does not?" Damien asks.

"Then Kitty cat is not your true mate, there is someone out that you can still fuck and claim" Gabriel teases before shutting as Damien throws dagger of glares his way.

"What do you mean dad's blood does not hold any power?" Nicholson asks with a frown and Gabriel rolls his eyes.

"No matter how old I am I still cringe at process of my birth so" Gabriel comments and Nicholson is wise enough to know the answer to his own question.

"Is that why you have been gone for a while?" Nicholson asks his father.

"Yes, what your sister went through I don't want any of our girls in the family go through with. I need to find the way and I had to...

Sometimes having too much power calls nothing but trouble we cannot handle and this is the trouble that is out of our league...

Your mother and I, we have been in Antonio's pack for few months do run some tests, our blood truly is a weapon we should be sacred of...

But now the sooner we destroy it the better, we can fight the humans, but they...they are not someone we will like to have as our enemy" Nicholas states pointing towards Eric who smiles.

"Wise words, even if we are strong, we do not like the idea of fighting our own, well now that we know what to do...

I would like to get a tests on all of you when..."

"I cannot believe this absurdity, I will have to let all know when I get kinky with my wife?" Gabriel shouts throwing his arms up.

"Don't act like you don't like the idea" Damien teases his cousin who grins back.

Nicholson clears his throat uncomfortable with the topic and the men laughs.

"When you get a nice, sweet girl for yourself you will be fine" Damien winks at him.

"The amount of times my daughter has cursed him, I wonder if it will come true and if it does, nice and sweet is not what he will get" Gabriel grins.

"Oh before I forget, you will need to draw blood and they will need to bite you back...uh like exchange of blood" Eric states and Gabriel gasps.

"Goddamn, I will need to shift my kids to their grandmother's house for this" he grumbles while the men laughs at his misery.

"I wonder who was being competitive for more kids" Nicholas hums.

*******

"She refuses to bath" Gracie pouts as she stares at Tristan who sighs closing his laptop.

"Then just use wipe on her body" he states as he takes his daughter in his arms.

"Too active" she comments staring at her awake daughter.

"Why are you giving mommy trouble my little doe" Tristan speaks as he takes her towards the bed and let her lie down.

"I want a massage too" Gracie grins lying on the bed beside her daughter who turns and starts to pull her mother's hair.

"I will like one as well" Tristan sighs as he pulls his wife's hair away from his daughter's grasp.

"Okay" Gracie grins as she gets up and behind him.

"What are you doing?" he asks.

"Massage, you look tired and both of us have been mean to you. Ordering you around"

"Well thanks for noticing now" he states sarcastically.

"I do notice lots of things" she grins dropping a kiss on the side of his cheek as she slowly massages his shoulders.

"Any hot girls in the office?" she asks while he lies on the bed and Tracie plays gurgling along.

"Lots" he mumbles.

"Hot men"

"I am" he admits shamelessly.

"Hotter than me?" she asks sitting on his back.

"Umm"

"Did they flirt?"

"Hmm"

"And did you flirt back?"

"Can't I was with Damon all day" he yawns.

"So you would have flirt back if you were in office?" she asks hitting on his bare back making him sigh.

"Would you like to come to my office and keep an eye on me?" he asks and she nods her head yes making him laugh.

"I go to work to earn money sweetheart and hot or not I don't care, all I care if how fast I can wrap things and be back home to see you and Tracie"

"Promise"

"Promise"

"You better not lie and maybe one of these days Tracie and I, we can barge on you in your office" she warns him.

"Wear something sexy for me" he grins as he runs his hands over her thighs and both of them stay quiet.

Too quiet for their own good before their head snaps at the bed to find Tracie on her fours making her way down of bed.

Both of them jump at once and grabs Tracie who wails startled.

"Oh fuck" Tristan sighs in relief as he holds his daughter in his arms who cannot stop crying.

"She was on her fours" Gracie states in shock.

"She could have fell down and hurt herself" Tristan adds as he kisses the back of his daughter head before he hands her to his wife.

"Aww my baby did mommy and daddy scared you, you scared us too" she coos before unbuttoning her shirt and letting her feed.

"Shall I get a nanny for her, it will be helpful" Tristan offers as he touches Gracie's knees.

"No, I don't want any other woman raise my child also getting a nanny is dangerous, what if she gets seduced by you?"

"You don't trust me?" he asks making her smile.

"Oh I trust you and because of that trust I know any girl will fall for you and how easy it is for me to loose you...

You are too sweet and kind for your own good that any given opportunity and they will want to grab your attention and that is a big fat no"

"Hmm, I may grab their attention but they will have to try real hard to grab my attention from my wife because she has me bewitched" he grins as he pulls her closer to kiss.

"You are so going to get laid tonight" Gracie grins while he laughs at his wife.

"I love getting laid by you" he winks as he helps her button her shirt as their daughter has fallen asleep.
