《MAGE CHRONICLES: THE BEGINNING.》MIC DROP.
Advertisement
I walked back downstairs to find my baby having the zoomies, winged edition.
“Blue, if you wreck Mama’s house, no fish for a month,” I threaten before realizing what had him so excited.
“Baby, come give mama some love,” I say, quickly scooping him up when he gets to me turning to the two intruders leaning on my kitchen counter with confused expressions on their faces as they stare at the koala wrapped around me tightly.
“Looks like we have to order in, Blue. What would you like to eat?” I ask as I continue glaring at Mor and BH.
“Pizza?”
“What kind?”
“Meaty, and a veggie smoothie so that nana doesn’t scold us.”
So that’s a bbq chicken and beef pizza, ah my baby is simply divine.
I make the order quickly as they continue to stare as Blue moves for a piggyback ride.
“Ok, Knox, spill it. Why didn’t you alert me when they came in? I told you remember, stranger danger.”
“They smell nice, and he smells like Pops.” this is what Blue calls my dad, Raphael Dracon.
“Really?” I ask, evaluating BH with fresh eyes. Maybe he is a dragon shifter too.
I move from the kitchen to the couch and settled in, still snuggling Blue, then turned to the intruders.
“Ok, before I lose my shit, would someone explain why you are here?”
“We followed you since you didn’t seem to grasp the enormity of the situation you are in.”
“What I would like to know is how the hell you have a magical baby, since you pleaded ignorant of anything concerning magic earlier.”
“First of that is none of your business and two, you are the ones who haven’t grasped the enormity of what exactly you’ve done.”

Before I finish the sentence, light flares in the middle of the room revealing the most beautiful woman, I’ve seen to date, also known as Nona Ellie.
“Great Nona, you charred my carpet again.”
“Nona Ellie!” Blue yells clapping his hands.
Nona Ellie snatches him up after relaxing her fighting stance. Guess we are good.
“I didn’t know you were here, Nona.”
“I was supposed to meet up with your mother for dinner when we felt the foreign signatures in here.”
Nona Ellie was my godmother and mama’s best friend. She was also mama’s sister apparently. They met when they were still young girls, whatever age that is supposed to be for immortals.
Nona Ellie was fae, Sidhe, one of the Tuatha de Danann which prompts me to look at Mor. They must know each other.
Meanwhile, BH looks like he swallowed something nasty.
"My lady," BH says reverently with a deep bow.
Man, flustered, was a good look on him. Wait, what!
“your lady?”
“Killian,” Nona acknowledges with a nod, “Morrigan, I didn’t know you were back. Great to see you.”
“Girl, you are full of surprises. This comes from Morrigan, who looks thoroughly entertained.”
“Go let your mother in, babe.”
I head to the door, opening it to reveal Mama leaden with takeout.
“Did you snatch all the food the poor guy was carrying?”
“No, I also paid for it.”
“Mama, those were people’s orders.”
“They will wait.”
“Is your father here yet?” She asks, laying everything on the counter, not in the least surprised by the people she found there.
“Mor, Killian, child, please have a seat and forgive her manners. She’s a bit prickly.”
“you don’t say,” Mor mutters.
“First of all, how did you find her?”

“We tracked her to the bar, then followed her here.”
“Ok, what is going on?”
“Mama, is there something I should know?”
“Go on, Selene, it’s about time she knew.”
My anxiety is off the charts and I gesture for Blue to come to me. He was my anchor, after all.
“Let’s wait for Raphael, he’s almost here.”
Another perk of being supes. They can communicate telepathically, I know, right?
The mood suddenly changes and Blue feels it and scrambles from my lap, rushing off to God knows where.
I guess you can’t really be ok sitting on dancing laps just couldn’t stop shaking.
I have a feeling I will not like whatever is going to be dropped on me.
“Do you guys hear that?”
Mor’s voice pulls me from my musings.
“No, what?”
Then I hear it, “ah jeez,” I say, running towards the basement, which was converted into a dance studio.
“Blue baby, now is not the time,” I say heading for the music system which is blasting Wave by ATEEZ, to turn it off.
“But you are sad, mama, and when you’re sad you dance.”
“I know baby, but I can’t today. Don’t make that face, boy, we really can’t, sweetheart.”
Blue rushes off to change the song on the tab usually attached, and I burst out laughing.
“You know my weakness, baby, but no.”
He ignores me and starts jamming to the first beats of Mic Drop, nailing JHope's footwork to a T. I taught him well.
He alternates between tagging on my leg and flying around me until I finally give in.
“Ok, boy, go start it again.”
Once the song starts again, I take a deep breath and let go.
I needed this. After the day I’ve had, I needed this.
Did you see my bag?
Did you see my bag?
"No cursing, baby," I jumped in laughing.
Whatchu think about that,
Bet it got my haters...
“Blue!”
“Mama, you are ruining it.”
At this point, we are just jumping around yelling, oblivious to everything, until the music is suddenly cut off.
“Hey! Rude!” We both shout and bump fists.
“Sometimes I wonder which of you is the parent." This comes from mama making me turn only to realize we had an audience.
“how long have you guys been there?”
“Long enough to confirm you are whipped.”
“Just so you know I am an amazing mum, right baby?” I turn to Blue, who is still pouting.
I pointedly avoid Mor and BH, turning to the menacing man leaning at the door.
“Papa, hi?”
“Hey baby girl, don’t let these people rain on you. It makes me happy to see you two like this.”
Blue suddenly disappears from my side and reappears on Papa’s shoulders.
Well then, that’s new. We all stare at him in shock.
“I won’t even bother learning what he is now," papa says, turning to head back to the living area.
Honestly, papa, I gave up after the wings grew from his back.
