章 24: Chapter 23

Zayed jerked away with a wince when he felt a pricking pain on both his thighs, and he looked down to see the two little boys biting on his thighs and the little girl trying to wriggle herself in between him and Aveline

"Don't touch my momma" the little girl yelled at him and kicked him in the shin.

He looked at her horrified.

"Zada, baby, no. You don't treat you elders like that. Zahir, Zian. Let him go" Aveline said in a trembling voice.

Zada!! His daughter

"He was trying to eat you momma" one of the boys said, his face softening when he looked worriedly at his mother.

"He wasn't baby" Aveline said gently

"Your momma was in pain. And I was giving her a medicine" Zayed lied and saw the kids frowning at him and then turning to Aveline questioningly.

"Were you in pain momma?" the same boy asked and Aveline nodded without looking at them.

"Are you okay now momma." Zada asked and Aveline again nodded.
