EMMA POV
I stood in front of the mirror Starring at Myself

I just can’t believe that am the one in front of the mirror

Am totally different and it’s all due to the make up and the wealthy accessories of Dora

Little by little am taking over Dora’s life ,Have been here for three days now and though I hardly leave my room I still have to see and talk to Dora parents and today is not an exception too

The prince will be visiting us and I have to be there to welcome him

There was a knock on the door and the maid walked in

“Miss Dora your mother asked me to tell you that the guest have arrived”She said

I turned and gave her a smile “I will be there soon”

The girl looked at me a bit weirdly before leaving the room

Dora had been cruel and nasty to all the workers, Me being nice and smiling to them is a new thing to them

Dora and I might have the same face but we are different.

“Try to do every thing the way Dora did and you won’t be found out” Those were the words Michael told me when he called two days ago

I might be pretending to be Dora but I can’t possibly be nasty and cruel to others, My father taught me to give respect to others so I will be given respect in return and that’s what I will do and I don’t care if they notice.

Taking a deep breath, I took the new phone given to me by Dora father and then I left the room

I was heading downstairs when I saw an old man cleaning the rail of the stairs

I recognised him to be the man Dora had slapped on the day I had first seen her.

Why would he still be working in a house where he is abused all the time,I thought as I began to walk past him

And at that instant the man slipped and almost fell but I was there to hold him.

“Are you okay sir?”I asked starring at him

“Yes miss Dora I am”He said moving away

“Please don’t fire me because of this, I will do extra job,Just don’t fire me”He said kneeling in front of me

“No,Don’t do that sir”I said bending to lift him up

“Just let me beg you, You had told me that any more mistake from me, I would be sent away and I can’t afford to lose this job”He begged and I felt my heart reach out to him

“Don’t worry, You won’t be fired, I won’t fire you”I said holding his hands which was shaking a lot

“Do you really mean that?”He asked unsure

“Of course, You shouldn’t be cleaning the stairs, You are not that strong to do it , Let me get the other maid for you”I said

“No! please don’t! I will keep on doing it”He replied

“But you look a bit tired sir and……”

“I will be fine Miss Dora, I can do it,All I need to know is that you won’t fire me”

“I wont,Have given you my word already”I replied and He smiled gently

I walked off and still feeling worried I called a maid who walked past me

“I think that man is tired and he refuses to leave what he is doing, So please watch over him”I told the girl

“Yes Miss Dora”She replied and quickly walked off.

I continued to walk off and when I got to the room where the meeting would be taken place, I waited a bit, Feeling nervous.

“Won’t you be going in” Some one said behind me

I turned and saw The prince starring at me, He also had this weird look on his face and just then his expression changed to one of anger.

He stared at me angrily and walked past me almost pushing me out of the way.

What happened? I thought as I went in after him

“Where is she ?”I heard Dora father ask

“She is coming”Brian replied as he took a seat.

I walked further in and when they all saw me they gave me a smile except Brian who was starring at the table still looking angry

I knew every one there except two people who sat beside Brian

“Show some manners and bow to your future father in law and mother in law”Dora father said starring at me

If they were going to be my future father and mother in law then they must be Brian parents,I thought as I bowed gently

“Come have a seat my dear”Dora mother said looking at me affectionately

What’s wrong with her? I thought as I went to seat beside her on the large sofa

“Apart from being pretty, She is also well mannered” The Queen said smiling at me

“You haven’t gotten to know her yet,So don’t say that”Brian said as he took the glass which was filled with whisky and drank in one gulp

“You are right your Highness, Your parents haven’t gotten to know her yet, If they get to know her am sure that they would love her” Dora father gave Brian a reply.

“Why don’t we just get to the reason why we are here, I still have other appointment” Brian said drinking another glassful of whisky

“Brian is right, it’s time to talk about the date of the wedding” The king said

“What date would you want it to be your majesty”Dora father asked the king

“On the 15th of Next month”He replied and I stared at the king

Why did it have to be so soon,I thought

“I do hope all the arrangement can be made before that day”He asked and Dora parents nodded in approval

“The 15th is perfect, A perfect day for the wedding and don’t worry about a thing your majesty, We will take care of it all” Dora father said flaunting off his wealth

“We still haven’t talked about the real reason for all this”Brian said starring at all of us

“Oh the merger! Don’t worry about it, It will surely take place” Dora father replied

“I want a written document of that statement”He said starring at him

“Brian that’s being rude”The king said starring at his son

“And how am I being rude? I will be marrying their daughter, Will be spending the rest of my life with her, It’s only appropriate that I ask for a written statement, After all its the reason why am getting married”He said looking angry and some how I felt that he really hates this as much as I did.

He didn’t want to get married but because of some darn business merger he has to

“Fine then a written statement would be made your Highness”Dora father said and he nodded in approval

Just then Brian phone rang and he excused himself before leaving the room

As soon as he left, They all began to talk about the wedding.

I couldn’t concentrate because I kept on thinking about Brian behaviour

He doesn’t want to get married and that’s the same thing I want too, I thought happily

I better talk to him and make a deal with him, He would have no choice than to accept ,After all he wasnt interested in marrying me.

I stood up suddenly and they all stopped talking

“I…..I just want to go and check up on his Highness,He is taking quite long”I said

“Feeling possessive already, Go and bring your man right here” The Queen said giving me a bright smile

Just hearing her call Brian my man made me feel weird.

I was heading outside when suddenly the storage door was opened and I was pulled into it roughly

I turned to find Michael behind me “why are you here”I asked surprised by his sudden appearance

“To check on you”He replied

“Why would you want to check on me,Am doing everything you are asking me to do”I said

“I know and I trust you to do the job perfectly”

“I better let you in on the real reason why am here”He added

“And what would the real reason be?”I asked

“Its time to put you to your first task”

“My first task?”I asked

“Don’t tell me you have forgotten the real reason why you are here”He asked and after thinking about it for a while,I stared at him in horror

“Don’t tell me that……..”

“Its time Emma, Time to know what your capable of” He replied smiling and I felt my heart beating fast.

(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!
