Isabella quickly opened the letter and read it softly to herself.

She smiled and shouted “Yes”.

“What does the letter say?” Joy asked poking her head to read the letter which Isabella quickly folded.

“It’s a competition from a school, a singing competition. If I win I will be given a scholarship to study at the university, which happened to be his school”. Isabella explained the content of the letter, she had told Joy everything about her best friend Alex. “Somehow he had managed to convince the university board to set the competition not too far from here”. Isabella added.

“Wow, you’re so lucky”.

“That’s not all. Once I win this singing competition and have gotten the scholarship, I will be given an apartment to stay with my family until the end of my scholarship”. Isabella said happily.

“So you and your family will leaving this ghetto soon? I will miss you”. Joy said, tears coming out from her eyes.

“Awww, I haven’t even won the singing competition yet and you’re crying, don’t cry, I will always come to visit you Joy”.

“Okay, so what song would you play?”

“I would have loved to sing one of TY Bello songs or better still Asa, but no, I will sing one of my songs I wrote”.

“Wow, you know you wrote a lot of songs which are good but you have to pick one”.

“I know..anyway I have to go and inform my mum and grandma”. Isabella said and ran inside the bamboo house to inform them, she only met her mother in their little living room. Joy left quickly.

“Mum, Alex sent me a letter”. Isabella

“Really? After so many years, I thought he had forgotten about us…anyway what is the content of the letter, has he finally propose to you?” Juliet asked.

“No, I told you he doesn’t like me.. anyway there will be a singing competition that I will perform to win the scholarship, and if I get to be chosen, I will be going to his school and will be given an apartment that we all will be staying till I graduate”.

“Wow that is the best news I have ever heard, so did they say anything about our transport fare?”

“No they didn’t, Alex said he will pay for our flight tickets mum, this will be my first time entering a plane. I have to start preparing myself and song for the competition which is next weekend, tell grandma for me”. Isabella said and was about the room when Juliet voice stopped her.

“Isabella what do I use to tell you?”

She turned and smiled at Juliet, “That I should always keep my face towards the sunshine and shadows will fall behind me”. Isabella answered.

Juliet smiled at her answer. “Yes, Isabella, whatever you want in life other people are going to want it too. Believe in yourself enough to accept the idea that you have an equal right to it. There are others who will also want the scholarship so you have to prepare hard. Your talent is God gift to you, what you do with it is your gift back to God, I believe in you Isabella, I know you will win the scholarship, so win it”.

“Thank you mum”. Isabella said and went to hug her. “I will try my very best to win this, after all I was born to be a singer”.

On the day of the competition, many people came to perform, Isabella waited for her turn. When it was her turn, she climbed the stage with her guitar and walked over to the microphone.

She closes her eyes and felt all eyes on her.

“Your time starts now”.

The string of the guitar when she touched it filled the room as everyone became quiet.

She began singing.

Solo 1

“The star that is in the sky
Shinning inside my heart
I think is you do you hear my voice
Do you feel my lovely heart
I can’t express with words
My heart towards you
No body has made me laugh and cry
As you have done.

Chorus

My shinning star
Engraved unto my heart
I am always lost in your love
Overflowing days and years
I will close my eyes and wait for you my sunshine
Even it takes a thousand years for you to come to me
I will gladly wait, for my shinning star.
You’re my shinning star in my heart.

Solo 2

I know you’re not a dream
I will look at only you
Will your eyes only be for me too
I know we’re each other stars
You who belongs to me
You’re always clear and clean
The star is shinning in your heart
Oh this beautiful you.

Chrous

When she finished her song everyone began clapping for her.

She bowed and left.

A week later she was sent a Letter. She won the scholarship.

Alex sent her the flight tickets they will need.

Bidding everyone in the ghetto goodbye they left for the airport.

Arriving at Ikeja airport, Isabella was the first person to spot Alex, she screamed his name and ran to hug. They hug themselves for sometime, ignoring the whispers around them.

“You have gotten so tall Alex and handsome”. Isabella said looking all over him.

“You’re more beautiful then before Isabella, I knew you would win the scholarship. Once I heard of it, I remembered you”. Alex said and greeted Juliet and her grandma which they responded nicely.

Alex took them to his car and drove them to straight Lekki to their new home.

***

A week later, Isabella and Alex entered the Uni. Everyone stopped whatever they were doing and stare at her.

“Why are they staring at me? Is there anything in my face?” Isabella asked all of a sudden.

“No, they’re staring at you because you’re the new girl who got into the school through scholarship, and also you’re with me”. Alex answered.

“Oh I get it and why you?”

“Well because everyone mingle with their class, those who entered the school through scholarship mingle with the people who also won scholarship…so me being with you isn’t suppose to happen. Did you get my explanation?”

“Yes I do. Well, that’s rubbish because everyone is equal and also… O.M.G!”. Isabella nearly shouted, her eyes widened up as she saw what had picked her interest.

“What is Bella?” Alex asked confusingly.

“Who is that girl over there? Her dressing style is beautiful, look at the way people are staring at her, I need details of everyone with her”. Isabella said staring at the lady surrounded by her friends. She was immediately attracted to the one holding the lady hands.

“Oh you mean her, well she is Isobella Davies, a rich brat. She is the face of this school when it comes to modeling, her family is rich, stinking rich. And the guy over there is her boyfriend, his name is Rick, and the other guy beside them is Rick twin brother Fred, the rest are friends. The most funniest thing is that everyone in this school knows Fred has a crush of Isobella for a long time but sadly enough his crush is in love with his twin brother”. Alex explained looking at Isabella, they had stopped walking.

“Wow, She is beautiful.. hold on, did you just say Rick and Isobella are like..lovers?” Isabella asked and stared at Rick who was holding Isobella hands and peck her cheeks. Isabella felt a pang of jealousy when he did that.

“Yes they’re, in fact they have been dating since childhood”.

“Can you keep a secret Alex?” He nodded his head and she continued, “I think this is love at first sight, I am in love with Rick”. She whispered the last part to him.

“Hey don’t fall for him, he is too arrogant and proud, stay away from him to avoid Isobella wrath”. Alex said trying to talk sense into Isabella which proved abortive. It had hurt him when she whispered those words to him, he was already in love with Isabella and has been hiding it from her.

“That can’t be true, you’re just saying that because you don’t like him. I am going to go there and introduced myself to them, once I am friends with Isobella that would give me the chance to let Rick know”.

“Don’t go if you don’t want to feel insulted, they talk to people who are rich like them”. Alex said warning Isabella who began walking over to meet them.

“Thanks Alex but I am still going”. Isabella said and went to meet them. It seemed the whole school stopped to watch what would happen as Isabella finally stood in front of Isobella, she smiled at her as her eyes briefly stare at Rick whose gaze was on his girlfriend.

“Yes can we help you”. One of the girls with them asked Isabella coldly.
Isabella wasn’t moved by that and rather smiled the more.

“Hello, I love what you’re wearing. My name is Isabella and I am the new girl and you’re”. Isabella said stretching out her hand for a handshake from Isobella.

“Thank you for your complement which is not needed. Rick can we go now, I don’t want to be late”. Isobella said ignoring the hand in front of her as she and her friends walked away.

“Sorry by her rude treatment, I am Fred, Rick twin brother and welcome to our school”. Fred apologize on their behalf and ran to join the rest.

Isabella shrugged her shoulder and went to meet Alex.

“She’s very rude, just to shake my hands”. Isabella said as Alex escorted her to her class.

“I told you but you wouldn’t listen to me, anyway see you later”. Alex said and quickly left for his class.

Isabella sigh and entered her new class and was surprise to see Isobella in there.

‘I thought the rich will be given a different class of their own’. She thought to herself and made her way to the empty sit beside the rude girl.

(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!
