EMMA POV
“Do you really have to come?”I asked Dora mom who was seated beside me on the chair

“Yes I have to,My daughter will be buying her wedding gown today and you are saying there is no need for me to come”She said looking angry

“Its not that I don’t want you to go, You are a busy person and you coming with me is not necessary”I said

“It is necessary,Your wedding is once in a life time And I won’t miss a part in it”

“Fine then”I said as I gave up persuading her

The buying of the wedding gown is today and as much as I would have like to go on my own I wasn’t given the chance.

Dora mother wants to participate in the wedding plan and buying the wedding dress is a big deal for her.

Well in a few days time,I won’t be seeing any one of them because I would be out of the country with Brian help of course.

The documents have been signed,I managed to get Dora father to sign it before the wedding, It wasn’t an easy task though but knowing that it’s the only way I can get out of this mess,I made sure I convinced him.

Now the merger part is over,It’s the wedding part.

All I have to do right now is to wait,I have to wait for Brian Go ahead.

Is just a matter of days, Five days to be precise and then I would leave this place for good,I will leave with my dad and I won’t ever come back .

“Have been thinking a lot about it but I need to ask Dora, What’s going on between you and this maid?”Dora mother asked starring at Nina who was seated in front of the car beside the driver

“Nothing mom,why ask?”

“You always go out with her,It’s not like there she is the only maid in the palace,Why her?”

“It’s because I feel more comfortable with her,I like her more than the other maid”I said quickly

“If you say so but I don’t like her and as soon as you are married His Highness I don’t want her close to you okay”She said and i nodded gently

That is if I get married to his highness, If only she knew that the maid will be the one marrying Brian. it will be a surprise to every one, Most especially Micheal, I would have like to see his face but that won’t be possible because I would have leave the city.

The car stopped in front of a very expensive Bridal boutique

The three of us went in accompanied by our guards.

“Hello,Am Emma,I will be the one to guide you on which gown to pick”The attendant said and I smiled

She bear the same as I ,What I will give To go back to being called by my real name

“Okay Emma,I want you to bring out the most beautiful and expensive wedding gown”Dora mother told her

“Okay Mrs Baxter” She said and left us to quickly pick out the best gown in the shop

“You should smile a little,You are buying your wedding gown,All bride to be are always happy” Dora mom said

“I am happy, Very much “I replied and stared at Nina.

The joy of leaving and starting afresh is the only thing that makes me happy and I hope that nothing will ruin it.

BRIAN POV
“what’s the next schedule for today”I asked my secretary as we both got into the car

“Nothing for now but Mrs Baxter called and she said you have to come to the bridal boutique”He replied

“For what exactly?”I asked

“Today is the day lady Dora buy her gown and it’s expected of you to be there your Highness”

“Do I really have to go”

“Yes your highness”He replied.

The car stopped in front of the boutique and I got out of the car.

I don’t want to be here,I thought as I walked in and it’s all because of Dora

For a while now have been avoiding her,After the way I behaved with her at the hospital,Have not spoken to her.

I doubted her and blamed her for every attack I faced while she was willing to help me with Nina.

‘ Isn’t this the best time to apologise to her’ My conscience said to me

“I think it’s the best time”I said to myself.

“Your Highness! You are finally here”Mrs Baxter said as she bowed in greeting

“I had to come,it’s my duty to be here”I replied

“Of course you have to,Dora is trying out the gown,You should be here to see it”She said pulling me to sit on the chair.

“What about the maid?”I asked wanting to know about Nina where about

“She is in the dressing room with Dora,She is helping her get dressed”She replied and I nodded.

Dora walked out of the closed curtain in a beautiful white gown

She looked so very beautiful and innocent,Who would have thought that a wedding dress would make the great Dora Baxter look like an innocent

I couldn’t stop myself from starring at her,She looked so beautiful and this is a first for me,The first time I think of Dora Baxter as some one beautiful.

She was smiling when she walked out of the room but when she saw me her smile died

“What are you doing here”She asked

“What do you mean by that? He came to see you in your gown”Miss Baxter replied saving me from saying some thing cause I don’t trust myself to speak.

“But you didn’t tell us that you were coming”She said again

“I called him and you should be happy that he is here,Now spin around for him,Let him see how you look”She said

“That’s not really necessary”She said looking a bit nervous

“Common! He would really want to see it”

“He doesn’t want to see me spin,So just stop it mom”she replied

“But I do”I find myself saying and she gave me an angry look

“See,He wants to see you spin, Now spin”Mrs Baxter said

Reluctantly she did the spin and I found myself starring at her physical attributes outlined by the gown

She looked so beautiful and she wasn’t lacking in any part at all, I smiled as I kept on starring at her.

“Satisfied!”She asked starring at me

“Yes”I replied giving her a smile which she didn’t return.

“I don’t like this gown mom,Am changing it” She said

“But I like it”I said and the two of them stared at me

“I like it”I repeated

“See Even his Highness likes it,just go with this one already” Mrs Baxter said

“But I…….fine then I will just wear this” She said and went back into the room, I couldn’t stop myself from starring at her derriere.

Why the hell am I feeling this way,Why am I seeing Dora Baxter in another way ,Have always thought of her as someone who is heartless,Someone who will never be able to love and get Love in return,Someone whose heart is as hard as stone but now it’s different.

Maybe seeing her in the wedding gown today made me think of her as someone who is innocent and beautiful but I can’t let myself be confuse,She is Dora Baxter,The cold hearted spoilt brat.

“Your Highness,If you don’t mind can you come with me for a while “Mrs Baxter asked

I stood up and followed her,We went to a room and while she knocked,I wondered why we were there.

A Lady walked out along with Nina and as soon as they did,she took my hand and pushed me into the room.

I saw Dora standing in front of the mirror still in her gown.

“Why are you here?”She asked again

“Could this be the………”I stopped when I realised what the room was meant for.

I tried to open the door but it was locked.

“Sorry your Highness,But I notice that some thing is wrong with you two and I figured that you might want to talk about it,So try doing it there and while talking you can help her with the gown” Mrs Baxter said

“Mom! Mom! This is not funny,Open the door”Dora said as she tried to open it

“You two need to talk to each other,I will be giving you an hour to do so,Am sorry Your Highness”She said and walked off

“Why is she doing this to me”Dora whispered gently as she walked back into the room

“She is right! We have to talk”I said

“I don’t want to talk to you”She said

“But I do,we have avoided each other enough! Its time to talk”

“Fine,say what you have to say”She said

” I doubted you and treated you bad for every attack I faced,For that am sorry”

“I should have apologised sooner but you were really angry and I didn’t want to make you more angrier,So I kept my distance but your mom noticed, Am sorry Dora” I apologised

“Apology accepted”She said and I gave her a smile and this time she returned it.

“Better call my mom and tell her that we are okay now,I need to get this gown off”She said

“Can’t you call her?”I asked

“My phone is with them and not with me,Hurry and call her” She replied

“Then we are bound to be here for an hour cause I didn’t bring my phone either”I Said.

EMMA POV
“Do you feel comfortable that way?”He asked

“To be sincere,I don’t but what can I do,I have to stay this way until an hour is up”I said as I stood in front of the mirror.

I wasn’t expecting to see him today but when I opened the curtain and saw him sitting on the chair,I was surprised and when I saw the way he was starring at me in the gown, It got me feeling Nervous and at the chance I got I fled to the changing room

Only for Dora mom to lock him here with me, Putting me In a more awkward situation.

“Do Nina like the Gown”He asked

“She picked it herself”I replied

“Apart from being beautiful and smart,She has a good taste right?”He asked

“I think so”I replied .

I still can’t forget seeing Nina kissing Micheal, She kisses Micheal and act all lovey Dovey with Brian

There are times that I would want to ask her but its none of my business, Have promised myself not to meddle in Brian life and that’s what I will do

“Hope our deal is still on”He asked

“It is! I help in getting you married to Nina and in exchange you help me leave”I said and he nodded

“Am glad that you haven’t changed your mind”

“I won’t change my mind for any thing in this world”

“Good then”He said.

Suddenly I felt an itch behind my back, I tried reaching it to scratch it but it won’t work.

I stared at Brian and he hasn’t noticed me trying to scratch my back yet.

Why did that woman have to lock us up,I thought moving restlessly

“Is something wrong?”He asked

“Nothing is ………oouch!”I said when the itch became worse.

“Are you feeling uncomfortable? Are you hurting some where?”He asked

“My back,It’s itching a lot”I said embarrassed

“My fingers can’t reach it can you help me”I said

“I would have to loosen the zip”He said

“I know and believe me you are the last person i would ask to do this kind of thing but am desperate”I said

“Fine then,Turn around”

I did as he instructed me, He pulled down the zip and while I held onto the front gown ,I felt his fingers on my skin.

It felt cool on my skin and I found myself standing rigid,Willing myself not to feel a thing.

His touch sent shivers into my body and it made my heart beat fast.

“Is this okay?”He asked

“Uh?”

“I asked if it’s no longer itching”He asked

“Yes,It’s no longer itching,Thanks” I replied as I turned to move out of his grasp

“This is odd”He said suddenly

“What’s odd?” I asked

“You had a scar right on this spot behind your back,It was a huge scar Dora,How come it’s no longer there?”He asked.

My God! Dora had a scar and I certainly don’t have a scar,How am I going to get out of this one.

(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!
