Chapter 519

“Itis difficult,” Christof said handing me our sleeping and bundled daughter, “but we speak with Basin and Stayne. We try to helpthem see the horrors of slavery. The way they act is no different from...”

He let the statement hang, but | knew who he meant. Having a slave meant being Like the women and no one wanted that.

“They will see the truth one day, as we did,” Damien said guiding me to the sleeping chamber. “We will make sure that allPaterians see the truth,” he said softly as they Lay Kennedy and me down.

My family rested the remainder of the night until the sun rose. They tried to be quiet, but despite being less than a day old,Kennedy woke curious about what they were doing. She didn’t want to stay in the quiet bedroom with me, she wanted to seewhat was going on.

The men were left to tend to me today. Food was delivered to us by Basin’s family. While | nibbled, Christof held our daughter.She dozed in his arms as he talked to her. It was different than it had been with Hannah, so unbelievably different.

Where Hannah had been all fire and venom, Kennedy was my sweet girl and | started calling her that. She Loved her family andwanted to be with us constantly. Her eyes constantly swayed between herfatherand his Brothers when they were around.

Kennedy would have preferred Christof stay with us all day every day and she made that very clear. The day he went back towork, she wailed all morning. He had to gently, but firmly, reprimanded her at lunch. She just couldn’t have everything shewanted. It was not his choice to follow Nu-reeh’s commands or not. While staying with his daughter would make him happy, Nu-reeh’s wishes always came first.

It was the first time | saw the look of determination on Kennedy's young face. She didn’t Like that her father was owned andcontrolled. The resolve I'd gotten used to seeing in Hannah settled over Kennedy. | suddenly realized what | was doing.

| was breeding the resistance

Most of the time, Kennedy was calm and content. She rarely cried and screamed. My second girl liked to be held and rocked.She was passed between all of us, enjoying the attention of the whole family. She liked to be awake and interacting with us.

Unlike Hannah, | soon found | had to remind her to feed regularly. Nursing made her sleepy and she liked to be awake and partof the conversation. Evan remembered how often Hannah had fed and he made a schedule for me. We did our best to makesure she’d grow strong and powerful.

Rose and Fuji helped me some with her care. They would play with her in the morning while | cleaned our rooms. She and Roseshared a special bond once Rose understood her name. Evidently the Kennedy Rose had been named after she left Earth.

My instructions with Kennedy were much the same as they had been before. The only difference was that | was to read to herevery morning. My afternoons were always spent walking in the mountain's tunnels and giving Kennedy fresh air.

Damien and his Brothers no Longer feared my walks. They understood the control Nu-reeh had on the men. No one would touchme. Much Like before

Hannah showed up when Kennedy was twenty two days old. Kennedy and | were walking and talking. | had taken us toawinding cave that eventually led to an opening out of the mountain.

The opening was small, barelyenough for me to squeeze out of. |Liked the wide ledge that w justoutside hoyghethes beat downobit and kept it nice and warm.

Talons hitting the ground startled me badly and | jerked Kennedy to my chest. Without looking, | ran for the opening but Hannah’svoice stopped me.

“Mama, it’s just us,” she said sounding exasperated. | took a moment to glance at the new arrivals and realized it was just myolder daughter and her Sister.novelbin
