was a truth I couldn't stand to face.
She came back after I'd wrapped my hands. For some reason I couldn't find that
miraculous cream my men had. They had tucked it away somewhere.
“What did you do to your hands, Mama?” she asked crawling onto my Lap. I
sighed theatrically, “That tub in the bathroom, I've been trying to get it cleaner
and I'm just not having any Luck. I was so vicious with it this morning I cut my
hands. Come eat, it's not bad. I'll heal.”
She curled into my lap as I held her and she took her meal quietly. Once I was
drained, I could see her anxiously eyeing the door.
“Go,” I said swatting her bottom, “stay out of the mines.”
She was gone and I tried to clean, but it wasn’t working. I ended up just sitting
and staring into the fire. It was coming so quickly, I just wasn’t prepared.
If I'd had my wits about me I would have spent the time looking for that cream.
“What happened?!” was what roared out of Damien’s mouth after he removed the
bandages and saw my raw fingertips.
He was furious and demanded to know what happened. Evan wanted to go tell
Nu-reeh I couldn't clean anymore. Even Kein and Christof were upset. Bane
marched into the bathroom Like he was going to dismantle it.
“It's not the bathrooms fault,” I said exasperated at their overreaction.
“I just...1 just realized how fast Hannah is growing. Once her teeth come in, she
won't need me anymore,” the last of it coming out as a whisper as I slumped
over.
“She*1l be gone very soon.”
Bane walked back out of the bathroom with the healing cream looking confused.
They all appeared confused. All eyes turned to Christof and I saw him accept the
responsibility to deal with this.
“We don't understand,” he said simply sitting beside me, “please explain.”
I took a shuddering breath and allowed Bane to put the healing cream on them.

eighteen cycles of the sun.”
