Here it is, the ending!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“You have no idea how strange this is for me,” Brodey whispered to his sleeping child. “It’s difficult to hold you and hear you cry without knowing what’s wrong.”
He gently brushed his fingers along the wisps of dark hair on top of her head. It was unusual for anyone in his family to be born any way except completely bald. ‘And they seem to return to that state again after not too long,’ He added, thinking of his grandfather’s diminishing hairline.
She probably took after the other side of his family. The Narundis were darker in coloring, and he remembered hearing stories of how long and thick his grandmother’s hair always was. His grandfathers had both joked about how you could use it to tie a yacht to dock, and it was evident that she was still quite the fond memory for both of them.
It was his grandfather, not his father, who explained the story that would prove royal arranged marriages to be an ill-conceived notion. Admitting to Brodey that an arranged marriage almost ruined the strong friendship that R’aa’nlan T’naa’lichi and Cel’aanaeus Narundi had would have been a devastating blow to Noaa’lan’s “shape up or ship out” campaign for his son.
Brodey cringed as he felt himself getting frustrated, and hoped that his tension wouldn’t wake his daughter. Evidently, it was a smart move for his father to omit information that might knock him off his high bantha, but the old man was still a liar. He’d made many mistakes growing up, including collaborating with his conniving uncle to exact revenge on his father, but having his nose rubbed in each and every one definitely didn’t help.
“I promise, no matter how many scary young men you bring home, that I won’t make your life too miserable because of it,” He mumbled to the sleeping baby nestled in the crook of his arm. She was his hope, a chance to prove that his father was wrong about him; he could do some good in the universe. “And I promise if you’re ever in any trouble, I won’t make it worse by acting like a jerk.”
The baby cooed softly, her little fingers finding their way up to her mouth. She sucked on them with contentment, drifting off again. It was almost like she knew what he was saying, although he knew that to be impossible.
“Hello,” Chimed a cheerful voice, and Brodey groaned when he realized who it was. Wes was leaning lazily against the door jam, his mischievous grin barely visible in the dim light of the room.
“Janson, leave,” Brodey warned, pointing a finger at the pilot. “You don’t want to wake up this baby, and any prank you try to pull will be seen as quite the opposite of funny.”
“You’re so big on threats, Narundi!” Wes rebuked, shaking his head; the stupid smile never left his face. “I just wanted to see the little tyke.”
“No seeing the little tyke for you!” R’aa’nlan growled deeply as he stalked into the room. “You’ve already received enough bruises today, Janson.”
The baby erupted into a fit of crying, and all eyes oriented toward her. “Now look what you did!” Brodey groaned, staring at both men with accusation. “I’m never going to be able to get her back to sleep.”
“Why are you looking at me?” Wes asked, looking shocked. “He was the one making all the noise!”
“Thank you, Janson,” The old man snarled with an eye roll. Right now he could understand why Kyp liked punching the man. “Give her to me. I can probably make her stop crying.”
Brodey reluctantly handed his daughter over. “Just don’t drop her on her head,” He joked, extracting a glare from his grandfather.
“What makes you think I’d do that?” R’aa’nlan snapped, looking offended. “Just because your parents dropped you on your head doesn’t mean we all do it.”
“Touché,” The young man returned with a laugh.
The child didn’t seem to mind that strange people were holding her, and she responded well to her great-grandfather’s rocking motions and soothing sounds. “That’s it, princess,” He whispered. “Fall right asleep for Poppy.”
“Hehe, Poppy,” Wes snickered.
“Did I ask for your input?” R’aa’nlan asked threateningly, his pale blue eyes taking on a dangerous glint. “I can’t very well be Grandpa, Janson. That title is for when Brodey here shocks the hell out of his father. He’ll deserve the title after suffering the heart attack!”
“I don’t understand how you’ve arrived at the conclusion that my father is still alive,” Brodey grumbled as he leaned back in the bed. “But I’ll be happy to give him a heart attack if he is.”
“You’re still holding a grudge, aren’t you?” His grandfather asked with enjoyment. “That’s my boy!”
“Shouldn’t you be telling me to work through it?” Brodey asked, perplexed.
“Nah, I’m not going to push you,” R’aa’nlan said, shaking his head. “Cocky punk got what he deserved.”
“Who?”
“Your father,” The old man chuckled. “Never wanted to listen to any of my advice on raising you. Stupid prat. If your mother hadn’t been so insistent then I probably would have never let them marry.”
“Oh?” Brodey asked with interest. “What advice did you give him?”
“I told him to smack you around a few times!” R’aa’nlan boomed, rousing the newborn. “Oops, sorry about that,” He apologized, rocking her again. “If you were shown a little discipline instead of all that yelling, maybe you would have shaped up.”
The young man pulled a face. “I think I have a new appreciation for my father’s leniency.”
“I wouldn’t call browbeating you that lenient, boy,” His grandfather returned. “But I know you’ll be fair about it. And that this little one probably won’t give you that kind of trouble.”
“Yes, thank the gods,” Brodey agreed. “Girls do seem to be easier to handle than boys.”
“Come on, Narundi!” Wes interjected. “You know female pilots! You should know better than that.”
“Worse than me, Wes?” The youth asked, reminding Wes of their encounter in the bar over a year ago. The older pilot’s eyes hardened as he nervously bit his lip; he obviously remembered.
“You know,” R’aa’nlan interrupted. “This baby looks an awful lot like the old holos of your grandmother when she was little. Even the mess of hair is the same.”
“Yeah, I was noticing that,” Brodey said, nodding. “Maybe I should name her after her. You know, to honor grandmother’s memory.”
“I think you should,” The old man concurred proudly. “Just do it for me and not your father or that twit, Cel’aanaeus.”
Brodey cracked a wide smile. “It’s a deal. Say hello to Bel’aanaea Narundi.”
“Hello, pretty little princess,” Wes cooed, reaching out to touch a finger to her nose.
“Janson, I wouldn’t do that. . .” R’aa’nlan warned, but it was too late. The baby had already chomped down on his finger with needle-sharp teeth. She realized it wasn’t food almost immediately, but not before putting Wes through a lot of unnecessary pain. “They have retractable fangs from birth.”
Janson was already backing out the door, sucking grudgingly on his sore finger. “I think I’ll leave you all alone for now.”
“She’s an awful good girl,” Brodey commented with a smirk.
“She most certainly is,” The proud grandfather replied.
THE END
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, tell me, how was that for an ending? And I want your honest opinion.  But remember, you can only milk me for one more post on this.

Falcon - Thank you! And I agree, Wes got what he deserved.
There will most certainly be a follow-up, although I'm not sure about when it will be ready.
Anna - Thanks!  So glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks JSD! I love Wessie too! Poor guy, always getting beat up.
So far that's two for this being the end and one for it continuing in an epilogue. Do I have any more takers?

Bwahahahahaha, I guess the epilogue people are winning out! 
I'll think about it, Anna. Maybe once my work is done and I can spend more than a little while on the computer.
And HUSH, OWLC! No need to be crude. . .

Upping this, hoping that it can be seen.
Sorry that my writing and my betaing have to suffer at the hands of schoolwork. Hopefully there will be time tomorrow to work on things.

Okay, I have time to write now, so I'll be working on the epilogue to this tonight. I'm also going to be working on beta-ing OWLC's fic. It's called "A Past Unknown" and it's really awesome, so you should go read it!

“Janson, I wouldn’t do that. . .” R’aa’nlan warned, but it was too late. The baby had already chomped down on his finger with needle-sharp teeth. She realized it wasn’t food almost immediately, but not before putting Wes through a lot of unnecessary pain. “They have retractable fangs from birth.”
Oh yes. LOL!!! I love that bit NJ, and the ending. Is there going to be more to this series, or is this the end?
