Oh, Spardia would certainly rely on her baby-daddy once the children went into proper training. For now things were light and fun, but very soon all that would begin to change as their personalities solidified and they began to express their talents and skills.
Hexia giggled at Eden and Atticus both as they both gave their inputs. She seemed to be the happiest child—but found particular glee in making her brother have second thoughts. A button-pusher, some might say—not at all a far cry from her grandfather Caine or her mother in many respects. Although there was something different about the black-haired little girl that Spardia just could not put her finger on…
“I sent word to Malkov to come and meet us here. I have left him in the dark long enough—it is time that he meets his first nieces and nephew.” Of course, she did hope Tremere didn’t mind.. .but then she saw something she knew they would both mind.
Taboo (Human Form) Just over the next sand dune she could see a very familiar suit lurking around. It was a hard suit to miss—large and white it was in every sense of the word a biohazard suit with reverse purpose. Taboo had followed them? The scientist was hard pressed to be found outside of his lab on most day.
But lately Spardia had been noticing him hanging around more—all geared up so he did not infect her children. It was very unlike him and smelled of betrayal.
“My darling, I do think we have a peeping tom. Why don’t we invite him over so he doesn’t peep any longer?” Her eyes were fixed on him and her voice venomous. Taboo knew better than to cross her—his blood could be the true biological weapon of mass destruction the world fears and all she needed was a cut and a bit of sadism on her side to make it happen. But she would let Tremere play the part of protective father for the moment. She would teach her children the importance of patience…at least long enough to let the ill-fated speak before meeting Gaia herself.
