Daddy's Love

Chapter 22: 22 - Faults

"What did she do, Grey?" I ask him again and that calms him down. Grey has a tendency to overreact

as times.

Ana is still crying.

"Hey baby, let's get to to drink some water and then you can lie down beside Carol and take a nap,

okay? You must be tired with all the crying." I tell Ana who ignores both of us.

I pick her up and go to the kitchen to get her a bottle of water. She is younger than Carol when she is

on her headspace and that is why I don't want to give her a Sippy cup.

We come back with Ana in my arms in the couch. Grey turns around to leave, I presume.

"Don't you dare step out before you tell me what made you that mad." I tell Grey solemnly. He runs a

hand through his hair but stays otherwise.

I put the bottle in Ana's mouth and she refuses to drink, pushing the bottle away lightly with her hands. I

wonder what the sweet, docile girl did to get Christian's panties in such a twist.

"Come on Ana, only a little water. It'll make you feel so much better." She shakes her head.

"Only one sip? And then if you don't want to have anymore you can stop. Okay?"

She looks at me with teary eyes and nods.

"Such a good girl, my sweet Ana." I place the bottle in her mouth and once she starts she can't stop

drinking. After, she calms down, stops crying and rubs her eyes.

"Uh huh, no rubbing your eyes cutie." I gently remove her hands.

"Let's tuck you in with Carol, huh, or do you want to sleep alone in my room?" I ask her picking her up.

"Carol, no alone. Scared." I smile at her.

"We will put you in with Carol. No getting scared." I kiss her cheek and put her beside Carol inside her

crib and she falls asleep instantly.

I go back down to a distraught Grey.

"What happened?"

"Nothing." He mutters.

"No, seriously, what did she do? She must have done something really serious for you to be that mad

at her. Did she attack someone with a knife?" I ask him knowing very well that she would have never

done that.

"She refused to have her lunch."

"What? And?" I ask in disbelief. There has to be something more.

"She kept on crying and not eating."

The fuck?

"Why was she crying and not eating?" I try to keep the sarcasm out of my voice. Littles do that all the

time. No reason for losing your mind like this. There is something else going on here.

"Because I told her she cannot go back home forever now. That this is home." He says in monotone.

"She fucking ran away! She said she wants to go back and ran away!" Grey screams suddenly when I

am trying to process whatever he is saying.

"So? They do that all the time. You remember Carol, right? We had to put in so many alarms and locks

in all the doors and windows for a couple of weeks. You were patient then. What's the matter Grey.

What really is the matter?"

"Nothing. I will take her and go back home." He says, getting up.

"The hell you are." I stand up too.

"Jay, just fuck off!" He tells me.

"I wasn't planning on doing this anytime before you telling me what's wrong, but it looks like you are in

an immediate need of some attitude adjustment." I tell him and grab him by his arms and drag him

inside my room.

"Stop! Let go Jay! What the fuck!?" He almost screams. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I'd watch my mouth if I were you. Also, if you wake the girls up, I swear.... " I let the threat hang in the

air.

Christian is strong but not as strong as me. I have been a vampire for longer and so my strength is way

more than Grey's.
