“The company’s big project is finally coming up, along side with Snibe and k.J, it is going to be a collaboration project, and well we all need to work our asses off for this, I hope you’re all ready…” Alvara explained after getting everyone’s attention at the office that morning.
Everyone nodded and turned back to work.

Calista breathed out a sigh of relief as her hands slowly pulled out from the keyboard,
printing out the files she had put together, Calista got on her feet and walked up to the photocopying machine, to get a copy of the written documents in her hand, when Alvara called her back.
“Uhm… Calista, the photocopying machine got a little crazy this morning, so I’m afraid you’ll have to use the one down stairs, opposite the lobby”

“Seriously…” Calista breathed out a sigh. “I’ll have to go all the way down to the lobby.”

“Well it’s not everyday you get rainbows and unicorns” Alvara shrugged.
Calista breathed out another sigh before walking out.
:
Pushing the elevator button, the doors open and as Calista stepped in, a familiar face suddenly walk in too, causing Calista to gulp.
“Good day” she greeted as Noah pushed the button closing the doors.
“Good day to you too” Noah mumbled.

They both remained quiet and stood still waiting for the elevator to arrive at their floors.
Calista noticed Noah looking down at his wrist watch several times and figured he must have been in a hurry before stepping in. If he’s being impatient with the elevator. He should have taken the stairs then.’ Calista thought.
Glancing at Noah again to take in his side profile, Calista nodded at her thought of him being familiar the first time she saw him, he had looked like Janice and Caroline at the same, that was why he looked familiar.
Glancing at him again, Calista titled her head when she pushed the thought of him resembling Janice and Caroline.
‘His side profile’ she thought.
His blonde hair, ocean eyes, high cheek bones, edgy jawline.
It couldn’t be. Calista scoffed shaking her head.
She turned to look at Noah again and he noticed her eyes on him.

“Please do tell me if I have something on my face” Noah breathed out adjusting his blazer.

“Uhm..” Calista breathed out a nervous laugh. “Your face looks fine.”
‘More than fine’ her subconscious added.

“Then I wonder why I’m getting the glances from you” Noah cleared his throat.

Calista looked at him and narrowed at her eyes. “I’m sorry if me looking at you caused you to be uncomfortable, I was just… You just happened… I mean… I… Look… So you just…

“If you take your time you’ll come up with something proper” Noah sighed.

“Sorry” Calista sighed. “For a second I thought you maybe looked like Noah Leonhart”.
Noah smirked. “Looked?”

“Yeah, because you can’t possibly be him” Calista snickered.
Noah paused and slowly watched as the elevator door opened.
He turned to Calista and gently, his lips curved into a smile. “Believe what you want then. We’ve run into each other a couple of times, and today, I suddenly look like Noah.?”

“I’m just saying, don’t take it the wrong way”. Calista added.
“There is no wrong way in this Miss Calista” Noah spat.
“Oh I’m flattered, you know my name?” Calista joked with a laugh.

“My mother and daughter talks about you non stop and how could I possibly not when you lectured me about raising my own daughter” Noah scoffed, walking out of the elevator with Calista behind him.
“Okay, I did not lecture you in raising Janice, I was clearly saying things you didn’t know.

“This has been a wonderful conversation, hope you have a wonderful day” Noah sighed.
“No it wasn’t a wonderful conversation, and well sadly, the photocopying in our office went crazy and now I have to walk to the lobby just to copy this, and I’ll have to eat goat’s butt for lunch, so I don’t think it will a be a wonderful day, but anyways, adios” Calista rushed her words before walking the opposite direction with the sound of her boots taking over the hallway.
Noah watched her go and didn’t realize when his lips curved into a smile.
“How can someone complain so much” he mumbled, before walking away.
:
It was lunch time and Calista found herself biting her nails at her computer, her eyes wandering around the office and watching everyone leave for lunch.

“It’s lunch time Calista, aren’t you going?” one of her colleague Victoria asked, after noticing Calista was the only one seated.
“Uh.. I will.” Calista nodded, getting on her feet with a sigh.
If lunch turns out to be bad again today, then I’ll start making my own lunch. Hope that doesn’t offend anybody though.’ Calista thought as she walked out of the office with her phone in her hand.
.
Calista blinked at the unfamiliar faces of the chefs as she took a bite out of the lasagna in her plate.
She looked down at her plait and then back up at the chef.
“I made one complaint yesterday and suddenly they changed chefs. Did my complaint somehow get to Noah Leonhart.?” Calista asked no one in particular as she tilted her head, taking another bite out of her meal.
“It can’t be.” she suddenly clench her first.
:
Sitting at the edge of the cool swimming pool under the bright afternoon sky, Mika’s head suddenly snapped at her phone beside her, and she breathed out a smile when Ray’s name laid on the screen.
She picked the call.

“Hey” Her voice didn’t sound excited.
“You okay?” Ray asked noticing immediately.
“Yeah, I’m great.” Mika answered, hesitantly.

“You don’t sound great” Ray scoffed.
“I’m just bored” Mika sighed, splashing some water around with her leg. “And here I am disturbing you with my stupid call, when I know you must be more than busy”.

“I am busy, that’s why I missed your first call and decided to call you back.” Ray narrated.

“Ray” Mika called.
“I’m listening.” Ray mumbled.
“Do you think… I mean.. Is there a chance… I mean…” Mika paused when she realized she couldn’t say whatever she had in mind.
“Never mind.” she finally said.

“Okay then, whenever you do feel like you can tell me.” Ray added.
“Gosh, I’m so tired or should I say bored.” Mika added
“And you called me. Because you were bored?” Ray breathed out.
Mika laughed. “I’m sorry, I called Calista but the call couldn’t reach, so I called you”.

“Did you try calling Adrian.?” Ray asked.
“No… He’s busy, why would I do that”.

“You see Mika, you were bored and thought of calling just me and Calista, excluding your fiancé, when clearly we’re all busy, do you know what this means.?” Ray muttered.

“Do I have to.?” Mika retorted.

“I won’t say anything, until you realize it yourself, but when you’re bored don’t think of calling me or Calista, think of calling Adrian, don’t give a f-ck if he’s busy and just call him. If you get what I mean, now I have to go back to work, I’ll talk to you later.” Ray rushed his words and ended the call.

Mika dropped her phone and slowly got into the swimming pool, her thoughts running wild as she stared at the empty pool.
:
:
“I am so sleepy” Calista yawned after checking the time to see it was time to go home, she carefully shut down the computer on her desk and threw her stuff into her bag before standing up.
Calista took the elevator after everyone hoping she wouldn’t run Into Janice’s father. Cause she was starting to put some things together and silently praying that it was true.

Stepping out of the company’s building, Calista paused when saw Jeremy waving and smiling at her.
“Were you waiting for me?” Calista asked, walking up to him.

“Yeah, I saw you walking out of the elevator and decided to wait, cause I-

“Miss Calista.” A familiar cheerful tiny feminine voice called, and Calista’s head snapped at the black car that suddenly pulled up in front of the company.
Janice tiny legs ran up to Calista with a grin on her face and her backpack, swaying behind her back.

“Janice.” Calista smiled, adjusting her shorts as she bent down to reach Janice height, to give her a hug.
“Wait” Jeremy scoffed.

“How are you?” Calista asked Janice.
“I’m fine.” Janice beamed.
“Are you here with your Nana?”
“Yes” Janice nodded.

Noah suddenly walked into the scene and gave a loud sigh walking up to the car.

“Wait… So it is true! Noah Leonhart does have a child” Jeremy breathed out.
“Noah Leonhart” Calista repeated.

She suddenly stood up and turned to Noah’s direction.
“So Jeremy, you’re telling me that, the man with the blonde hair blue eyes over there is, Noah Leonhart?”
“Yes… You’re working here and don’t know your own boss.?” Jeremy laughed.

“Holy sh!t” Calista cussed.

(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!
