Chapter 46: The Mother of my Child (1)

When Neban came to, he felt something resting on his chest while his back was lying on something soft. He looked around, seeing that he was lying on a bed in his parent's guest room. Then he looked down and saw Theo lying on his chest. 

His son was sleeping, but he must have felt Neban moving because Theo started to wake up. 

The boy rubbed his eyes before looking up and seeing that Neban was looking back at him. Theo popped up, fully awake and with a smile, "Papa!" 

Neban chuckled at the boy, stopping when he felt that his throat was a bit dry. He sat up, grabbing Theo to where he was hugging the boy. "H-How long was I out?" 

"Only a day," Theo answered, resting his head on his dad's shoulder, happy that he was awake. Theo did not leave Neban's side at all. 

Neban hummed, getting out of the bed with Theo in his hold. He did stumble a bit as his legs felt stiff and numb. But he kept from falling and walked out of the bedroom.
