EMMA POV
The doctor made it clear to me that I Still needed to take care of my health and that for a while I will be using a crutches and then DORA parents went to fill out the release form.

I was dressed by the one of the nurse and asked to wait for the wheel chair to be brought in and during all this period,Brian never left the room

As soon as I was dressed,He began to stare at me and it was in a strange way ,Could it be that he was suspicious about me? Could he still be wondering why Micheal came to see me?

The only nurse in the room left leaving the both of us alone

I had to know what he was thinking and without delay,I asked him

“What’s wrong? You have been starring at me ? Did I do some thing wrong?”I asked

“No matter how I think about it,I still don’t know how you suddenly changed over night”He said

“Change? Oh! That”I said feeling relieved that he wasn’t thinking about Micheal visit.

“Everyone change once in a while”I replied cooly

“But this change in you is very drastic,Like you aren’t the Dora I knew before,Like you are some one else entirely”

“I…… I”I didn’t know what to say or what to reply him with

He walked towards me and bent down so that our eyes can be on the same level.

“Who are you really?”He asked so suddenly that I began to shake

Did he know? Did he know that am not the real Dora,I thought still starring at him

The door opened and who ever came in saved me from answering

“What’s going on?”on hearing Nina voice,He straightened up and stared at her

“Finally you are here”He said walking to her to give her a kiss which she returned

“I had to be here,After all am part of the worker working for the royal family”She replied

“That! My dear would soon be remedied”Brian said starring at me.

A while later the nurse and Dora parents returned with the wheel chair.

“Does she really have to use it”Brian asked t

“Yes she has to”The nurse replied.

I was being helped Nina and the nurse to seat on the chair when Brian walked towards us

“Move”He said suddenly and before I knew what he was about to do,I was lifted into his arms

“You don’t have to carry me”I said starring at him

“I hate seeing people on wheel chair”He replied and began to walk out side with me in his arms

I held onto his shoulders for support and it was hard not to breathe in his cologne,It smelt good and it’s the kind of perfume fit for a prince.

I didn’t know why but I prefer being in his arms than being on a wheel chair.

We got outside and I was shocked to see a lot of people standing outside just to greet me.

“They all came for you after all you are the country heroine”Brian said to me

I could only wave at them all,The guards surrounded us,Making sure that they don’t come close to us.

“Just one question your Highness,How do you feel knowing that you are marrying the country heroine”A reporter asked and I thought Brian wouldn’t answer him but he stopped

“I certainly feel good,My wife to be saved a lot of lives,Am very proud of her and I would like to say a big thanks to every one who came here to see her.”He said and headed for the car which was waiting for us.

I was gently put in the car and he sat next to me,The others got into the other car and soon we were on the busy high way of London.

“Wow,You really nailed it with that speech of yours”I said starring at him

“Really?”

“Of course,I didn’t know what to say or how to react,Am now the talk of the town and that makes me nervous”

“Nervous? Dora Baxter nervous? This is the first time am hearing you say that”He said

“Really? Well am a nervous wreck,I never said it in the past because I didn’t want anyone to know one of my weakness”I said quickly cover up

“So now I know one of your weakness right?”He asked

“Yes and that’s the only weakness you will ever know”I replied smiling

“You know there are times when I feel that you are the Dora I know and there are some times that you surprise me and I doubt if you are the Dora I know” he said looking so serious

“Am the Dora you know,How can there ever be any other Dora apart from me”

“You are right! There can’t ever be any other Dora except you and I like this Dora,Don’t ever change”He said and ruffled my hair before turning back to take his laptop.

If only he knew the truth,The real Dora is dead and am an imposter.

I only hope that I manage to get out of all this before they find out the truth,I have to leave before Micheal drags me down with him.

After hours of being in the car,We finally got to the house.

It was when Brian helped me out of the car that I noticed that we weren’t at the Baxter mansion

“Why are we at your house?”I asked

“For your safety Dora,I realise that if I was the target,Every one around me is not safe,So the only protection I can offer is to stay in the palace where my guards would be watching over you and your parents”He said

This couldn’t get worse,It’s hard living with Dora parents already and now I have to live under Brian roof.

“Its not really a must that we stay in the palace,You can just get some guards to watch over us at our house”I said

“No Dora,You are staying here,You are the only ticket to having what I want,I won’t let any harm come upon you”He said and before I could say more.

He carried me in his arms and took me straight to the guest room.

He sat me gently on the bed and I was about to pull away from him when he held me by the waist bringing me close to him

“Remember this Dora,You are the only one who can help me just as am the only one who can help you,So in what ever circumstance you find your self in,Make sure you protect your self,You are not allowed to risk Your life or to get killed, Have I made my self clear”He asked and I nodded gently.

He let go of me and gave me a smile before leaving the room

Odd! Why is my heart beating so fast,I thought touching my chest.

The phone beside me rang and I picked it,wondering who was calling.

“Hello”

“I see,You have finally gotten to the palace”Micheal said

“Yes,They discharged me today but how did you know the palace land line”

“I have my ways Emma,You still know that your real identity is Emma right? Hope The name Dora Baxter isn’t going into your brain”He asked

“I perfectly know who I am and I wouldn’t be here bearing some one else name if you hadn’t forced me”

“Oh! really? Did I really force you?”He asked

“Stop messing with me and tell me why you called?”I asked

“I was actually saving that part for the last”He said

“What do you mean?”

“You see I prepared a welcoming surprise for Brian and if you are not careful,It would also be a surprise meant for you too”He said

“What did you do Micheal?”I asked

“It wouldn’t be a surprise if I told you right?”He said

“Tell me what you plan to do”

“So you can meddle again right?”He asked

“Have told you,I did it to protect you”

“And I thank you for it but this time I don’t want you meddling and no one will trail this incident to me,So just pretend you know nothing okay”He said and cut the call.

How can I pretend! Brian is my only hope of getting out of here,I have to meet Micheal,I have to save him again.

I got out of bed and when I set my Feet on the floor,It hurt so much but I took in the pain and began to limp to the door.

I went out of the room,resting on the wall while I hop on one leg.

I just hope I can make it to him on time,Judging by the time,Brian would be at his study.

Maybe Micheal surprise is in Brian study,I need to get to him fast,I thought as I kept on going.

BRIAN POV
I sat in the study room, checking out the pictures of Dor0a which was trending now on the internet.

A lot of nickname had been given to her but the one which I liked most was the HEROINE.

Who would have thought that the Dora which a lot of people had hate and dislike would be the one they all love.

I still can’t believe that the girl there in the guest room is the same as the Dora I knew in the past.

She is kind,Caring and she had risk her life to help others.

I found myself being intrigued,I would like to know more about her before we part ways,I thought .

My phone rang and I picked “Hello”

“I guess you are trying to find out who cause the bombing incident right?” The stranger asked

“Who are you?”I asked

“Some one who can answer your questions”He said

“Start speaking then” I said and he laughed

“Do you really think I will just say it without getting some thing in return”He said

“What do you want from me?”I asked

“I will tell you soon,First get out of your study roomand head to the balcony,Some one will be waiting for you there”He said and immediately I stood up doing what he asked of me

I got to the balcony only to find no one.

“Are you messing with me right now! Where is the person am suppose to meet”I asked

“He is there and that is death”He said and suddenly the glass vase which had been placed in front of the guest room which was up stairs fell right over my head but I wasn’t hit by it because some one had shoved me out of harm’s way.

(AT THE HALL)
“Dearly Beloved,” the elder began, ” we are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses, to join Alpha Derek and Lady Diana in matrimony commended to be honorable among all; and therefore is not to be entered into lightly but reverently, passionately, lovingly and solemnly. Into this – these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together – let them speak now or forever hold their peace. “
He continued, “Friends, we have joined here today to share with Alpha Derek and Lady Diana an important moment in their lives. Their time together, they have seen their love and understanding of each other grow and blossom and now they have decided to live out the rest of their lives as one.”
“Do you Alpha Derek, take Diana, to be your wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do you two part.”
“Yes, I do.”
“Do you Lady Diana, take Derek, to be your husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do you two part.”
“Yes. Yes, I do.”
” It’s time to put each other the ring.” The elder instructed.
” I Derek give you Diana this ring as an eternal symbol of my love and commitment to you.” He fixed the ring into her finger.
” I Diana, give you Diana this ring as an eternal symbol of my love and commitment to you.” She did the same to him.
At the final declaration, the elder said. “By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you alpha Derek and Lady Diana husband and wife. You may now kiss each other. “
He ended with, ” I present to you the newly married couple
Everyone stood up with an applaud as the couple lead out.
After the matrimony was over, Diana’s eyes went all over in search for her parents. Even with the now over grown bumb, she walked up and down. Now that she has seen them, she ran to give them a warm hug.
Derek had ordered some people to stop her but, she didn’t listen but kept running. Mrs Craig, her mother held her mouth in fear, but did that seem to bother Diana?
No…
She ran to them, throwing herself in their embrace. ” Diana, you will hurt the baby. ” Her mother gave her a look.
” Mom, don’t worry, the baby is fine. “
” Well, that isn’t an excuse to me. If you wanna die, then not my grandchild. “
” Mom, you don’t care about me anymore? “
” I do, but it seems like you don’t care about yourself. Come here, give me another hug. ” She chuckled, pulling Diana to herself.
” Dad, how have you two been all this days. “
” We’ve been doing great. Though, your mother keeps mourning you until Kent told us you were alive with the wolves. “
” Mom… ” She stressed the word. ” Do you wanna kill yourself? “
” What do you expect? I thought I had lost my only child and daughter. I have to, it’s not like I loved what I was doing. You know what, whatever. It’s your day, let us jubilate it. “
” Why don’t we sit at the high table. I know my husband will be expecting us. “
” Yes, sure. Sure. “

Chapter 48:
“ DIVIANA… LUCAS… ”
( Seven Months Later )
“Call me my mother! Call me my mother! ” She cried in pains.
“But, my lady. You… ”
” I said, call me my mother!” She yelled at the nurse who did that Immediately.
Not quite long, her mother walked in straight to her side.
” Hold me tight, don’t let me go.” She said in pains and tears.
” I will never leave you my love. I’m here for you, okay? ” She assured her.
She nodded continuously while the nurse asked her for a push.
She screamed, her grip tight on her mother’s hand. She kept gasping for air.
The nurse ordered for another push which she did. Again and again, this she went on until something like a head was seen.
“I see it. I see it. One more push my lady.”
“Ahhhhh!!!”
There came the cry of a baby filling the air.
“What do we have?” One of the nurse asked.
“It’s a girl!”
Diana stared at her mother who offered her an assuring look that everything was gonna be okay.
Soon, Diana felt pains in her stomach like something was kicking her.
“There’s another!” A nurse informed. “There’s one more.”
Diana looked at her mother weakly, she wasn’t sure if she could endure it this time. She needed to rest, but the being in her wants to leave.
” Kiara, I thought you said it was only a she! ” She echoed not minding the people around her.
” Sorry, I forgot to mention there was a he too. “
” Oh my God, I don’t think I can hold this anymore. Mother… ” She pressed her hand tight.
Mrs Craig rubbed her palms softly, tears dropping out of her eyes. She can’t do this, she needed some rest.
“Okay. You need to push hard, my lady. Push!”
She held her teeths firmly together. Her body stiffened in each push. It was time for the last push, she gathered her strength, her eyes turned purple.
” Diana, this is the last… you’ve got to push. ” Kiara whispered in her head.
” I’m trying, Kia. I’m trying, okay. “
The other her was ready, Kiara has to help her.
She gave the hard push…
She breathed heavily.
“What do we have?” A nurse asked.
“It’s a boy! ” Replied the other.
“I wanna touch my babies.” She said dully and they brought the two infants to her side.
They laid them beside her. She couldn’t stop from staring at this creatures, they were beautiful, they were gorgeous.
“Do you want to feel them?” She asked.
She nodded her head. ” Yes, yes. Oh my… goodness. ” She held them both in her arms, humming one of those lullabies she always sang for Diana when she was little.
” Aren’t they beautiful?”
She nodded.
Derek entered, looking astonished at his two little kids on Diana’s arms. ” Come, Derek, look what we have. ” Mrs Craig said,
He came closer, He took his male child into his arms, holding him tight from falling. He loved babies, but he has never taken one into his arms so he fears he might hurt his child.
For the first time, a tear fell from his eyes. He has never thought of being a father. Now he is, what kind of father will he become?
“He’s beautiful. They both are so beautiful. My bloods, my futures. “
★ ★ ★ ★
( Six years later )
Diviana ✓
” DIVIANA! ” I heard mom called but I paid deaf ears to her, running down the hallway. ” Diviana, I said, get back here, will you?! “
I stopped, stamping my feet angrily to the ground while I heard her approach me. ” Mom… “
” Don’t you ever mom me, okay? I said get back to your room and stay with your brother. ” She pointed towards the direction of my room.
” But mother, Lucas can take care of himself. Besides, I just wanna play. “
” You just wanna play, ” I notice her eyes look on my legs. ” And you aren’t putting on your shoes? Divia… “
” But this is not outside the castle… “
” Can you stop exchanging words with me and do as I said? To your room, now! ” She pointed.
” But mother… ” I tried to say.
” I said, don’t mother me… “
” Diana, take it easy. ” Cax said, touching her shoulder.
” Take it easy? Did you even listen to her? No, she is going into her room. And woman, what are you still waiting for? ” She said, throwing me a hard gaze.
” Fine, I’m going.. ” I scoffed, murmuring to myself as I headed back to my room.
” Hey Divia… ” Lucas tried to say but I cut him short.
” Shut up. ” I banged the door close.
Diana ✓
” You have to take it easy on her, besides she’s still a kid. “
” No, she’s stubborn. ” I corrected.
” That trait didn’t just come from nowhere, she must had gotten that from her mother. “
I eyed her, ” That was years ago. “
” Traits doesn’t give a damn how long it was or has been. It flows, and I think you just passed that down to her. ” She chuckled.
” No, I was stubborn, but not as stubborn as she is. ” We started to my room.
” I bet yours was worst. Cos if I can remember, yours resulted to you getting bitten. “
” Oh, maybe I must have forgotten. “
” Thank God I reminded you. “
” Uh-huh… “

The morning has surfaced, we were both awake sitting on the bed. Derek was busy with his laptop, while I sat busy with nothing. I was still contemplating if I should tell him about Kiara’s discussion with me or if I rather keep it to myself.
I don’t even know how to start it but… I really need to have this discussed with him now. I sighed.
” Derek, ” I called him.
” Mm-hmm. “
” Can we talk about something? “
” Right now? ” He asked, his eyes still on his laptop.
” Yeah, right now. “
He stopped what he was doing, shutting his laptop close. He adjusted himself, that we were sitting face to face.
” Okay, I’m listening. “
” I uhmm… ” I started with a pause. ” You know, I was wondering, we haven’t gotten married yet and, I’m almost… so close to giving birth. So, I was thinking if we might discuss about our union. What do you think? ” I don’t even know what I’m saying.
” I thought about that so, I decided on hosting our marriage next week. But I didn’t wanna push it too forward without getting your opinion first. And you know, I didn’t wanna talk about it in your condition. “
I sighed. ” It doesn’t matter if we have to get married with me being pregnant. It’s much better if I may say. “
” You’re scared people might take me away from you? “
” No… I.. I mean of course not. ” But the look was just too obvious to tell, leaving him to laugh at me. I found myself laughing too.
By the way, why would I be scared?
Everyone of course knows we are mated already. Or, am I being too concerned because of guests yet to come for the wedding. You know, those pretty ladies who thinks they are better than everyone in the world.
Gosh… I guess I’m overthinking right now.
” Yeah, I’m scared, a little tho. ” I confessed.
” It’s okay to be scared. But you’ve got to believe this, I’m never leaving you for anyone. Not after what we’ve started together. “
I nodded in relief.
” You wanna talk about anything else? ” He asked again.
Hold on… Did he just…
” You just read my mind, didn’t you?” I pointed at him.
” It was too much. I mean, your thoughts are too much and they are bothering me. “
” I’m sorry, I… Maybe I won’t ask again. “
” No, go ahead. “
I exhaled, rubbing my palms. ” Last night, I thought about this but, I don’t think you might approve it. Can you just read my mind, please? “
” Diana you know I can’t do that. It’s your privacy, I don’t wanna invade it. If you’re being too shy to tell me, maybe you can anytime. “
” No, I want to have it discussed now. I… Okay, it’s about my parents. I was thinking maybe you can permit them to attend the ceremony. I just wanna see them, even if it’s for the last time. “
He smiled. ” Don’t worry about them, I already sent them an invitation. “
I chuckled, scoffing. Gosh, I’m damn surprised. ” Oh my goodness, Derek, you’re full of surprises. Thank you so so much, I love You. I love you. ” I threw myself on him, causing him to rest on the bed.
” I’m grateful for what you did, Derek. You definitely don’t know how happy I am. “
” Whatever makes you happy, makes me happy too. “
This time, it was I who pressed my lips on his, kissing him passionately.
*
*
” Damn it, kiara you’re hurting me. ” I grunted at the hot pains in my belly.
” Sorry, she’s too stubborn just like you. I’m trying to calm her down but she’s too… “
” Ahhh…” I cut her shirt with my yell. ” Kiara for damn sake make her stop!! ” I yelled.
” I’m trying. I think… “
” You think what? “
” I think she wants to pull out. “
” Pull out? ” I repeated. ” Pull out where?! What’s that supposed to mean? “
” I don’t know. I think she wants to leave your womb.”
” Then make her know it not the damn time yet. I’m … Oh my God, I feel like passing out. Kiara!! “
” For God sake, Diana, I’m trying!. “
” Then keep trying!! ” I held the lower part of my stomach, pushing myself to lay on the bed. ” This is the most painful moment of… my… life. ” I said in clenched teeth. ” Whew…” I breathed, in and out.
I did that again and again as if that would help. And indeed it did. ” Kiara, ” I called with a warning tune. ” Don’t you ever, ever again play with her. Understood?! “
” Yes, boss. “
I exhaled heavily, resting my back on the bed. ” Whew… “
*
*
That night, I sat happily at the varenda. I always go there each time I wanted to be alone. I wanted to think, to be outside the universe.
I never expected Derek to have done what he did. Every other alpha will try to show how angry they were when humans are being mentioned, humans different from their mates.
But Derek just proved how different he was to other alpha’s. First, he respects my privacy. He never reads through my mind without my permission. And now, he just approved the idea of letting my parents attend our marriage.
Did I just said approved? He has already send an invitation letter to them??
Good God, I’m so fucking excited right now. Finally, I was gonna see my parents once again!
