“What do you all think business is in one word ?”the professor asked

“Wealth !”

“Gain”

“Profit”

“Money, money , money! ” a student said and every one laughed

Celine sat at the back seat watching every one chipping some thing in but she wasn’t concentrating that much in class and that’s because she was starring at Nick who sat out side, starring at her through the window.

On seeing that he was looking at her, he smiled at her and she couldn’t help but to smile back.

There is nothing stopping him from being in class with her but she didn’t want too much attention on her,being in class with a guard will certainly make people stare at her and so she asked him to stay out side.

Luckily for her, neither has she run into Mark and Cathy.If possible she is ready to avoid them if it will stop them from bothering her.

“Yes business certainly means money but there is one word am looking for, keep trying and we might get there”The professor continued and for a while Celine was distracted by the students trying to come up with a word that define business.

The professor finally gave up and told them and while she focused on class, she didn’t notice that Nick was no longer sitting at his spot, watching her.

It was a while later that she did notice and that made her feel bereft, she like to know that he was watching over her by standing out side but not seeing him there certainly made her feel strange.

Where could he have gone to? She thought to her self

Mean while Nick stood at the field starring at Alicia who was starring at him angrily.

“You left and all for what? To work as Celine guard, I wondered what they will say when they find out the truth”Alicia said

“They don’t have to find out Alicia”Nick said softly trying to convince Alicia that it’s best for her to keep her mouth shut than for his secret to be known.

“What!”Alicia yelled still looking annoyed

“I said you don’t have to tell them that you saw me again. I will like it if you didn’t tell them that you have seen me “He said softly

“But Nick! Why are you hiding away? Why don’t you just go back , every one is worried? It’s been a year !”Alicia said this time, all her anger dissipating.

“I can’t come back, I don’t want to. Have made a new life for my self and i hope it will keep on being that way “Nick said softly

” But I don’t want that Nick! Can’t you realise that every one misses you?”She said again trying to change Nick mind.

Nick smiled softly, he knew who miss and doesnt miss him and he knew that as long as he lives, he wouldnt go back.

Some where in the distance, Nick heard the ringing of a bell but he didn’t give it much thought because Alicia held both his hand.

“Please Nick, come back! We all miss you,I do most especially”Alicia said holding both his hand.

He pulled free and carressing her cheek with one hand, he smiled at her.

“You are the only one who cares about me and am glad that you do but my answer remain the same, I wont be going back “He said softly

“Are you doing this because of her?”Alicia asked not starring at him.

He followed her gaze and saw Celine standing in front of the class starring at the both of them.

He pulled away from Alicia and Alicia didn’t fail to notice that little action

“Nick what is wrong with you?”Alicia said trying to pull him back but he held her hand and place a card in it.

“Call me later and we will get to talk but now, I have to do my job”He said and walked towards Celine whose mere gaze told him that she was wondering what he and Alicia were doing together.

“Is that your last class for today?”Nick asked as they head to where the car is parked

“Yes”She replied softly, she knew she wanted to ask but this time she will keep it to her self, He is just her guard and if he knew Alicia, then that is his problem, she doesn’t have to know things about him, he was just her employee after all.

“what are you thinking about?”Nick asked intruding in her thoughts

“Nothing!”She replied quickly and she hated her self for it. She sounded angry and why is she even angry? Is it because She saw Nick with Alicia a whole ago! While would she be…….

‘you are just jealous’.

A voice said to her and she shook her head causing Nick to stare at her.

“Are you okay?”Nick asked

“Of course”She replied and began to limp off, she just can’t believe that she is jealous! The last time she was jealous of a girl was when she saw one hitting on Mark at one of a grand party her father held then, she was so furious with rage then and she had a good reason to be furious about it but then Nick.

Why would she be jealous if she should see him with Alicia.

“Watch out!!!”Nick said pulling her to him. It was all so sudden, she found herself in his arms.

She looked up to stare at him and found him starring at her too.

She felt her heart beating fast and loud, she knew Nick could hear it too or was it all a figment of her imagination.

“Can’t the college be saved from your romance?”Mark said softly and that made Celine pull out of Nick arms

She saw Mark, along with Cathy and some other student starring at them.

“Just keep on going Mark”Nick said and instead of doing as he said, Mark gave him a distateful look before starring at Celine.

“Is this the best you can do Celine? A guard! Couldn’t you at least pick some one from your class?”Mark asked

“I once did that and I regret it”Celine replied and that brought an angry look on Mark face.

“It’s a good thing you regret it because he is free for me now and he is mine”Cathy said

“He is free to you Cathy after all you like having my left over”Celine added and Nick couldn’t deny that that made him feel happy.

“Common”Nick said as he held her hand and began to walk away but they both stopped when Mark pulled her by her hand

“You and I have to talk….with out this guy ?”He said not caring if Cathy his so called girl friend was watching them.

“Stop this nonsense and leave me alone”Celine said pulling her hand from him.

Mark stared at her surprised that she still Remembered what he said to her a year ago.

“You are no longer the guy I used to know and love and so it’s best if you stay away from me, you will only bring me Shame and I hate that”Celine continued, repeating every bitter word he said to her at the hospital

“Look Celine I …..”

“Stop it! You broke it off with me a year ago, you asked me to stay away and that is what am doing and so am asking you to leave me alone, stay away from me, am happy with Nick now and even though you are not happy with Cathy, I think it’s best if you find some one else and be happy with her”Celine said and holding onto Nick arm, they head to the school parking lot.

Celine was still shaking when then got to the car and instead of Nick opening the door for her to get in, he pulled her into his arms, giving her a tight hug.

“It must have been hard for you then right?”He asked softly

“You don’t have to feel that way again, as long as I am here with you, you have nothing to fear”He added

Celine couldn’t reply because she was trying to hold back the tears that threatned to spill, she hugged him tight Instead.

A while later they were driving back to the mansion and Celine who had been sad earlier found her self thinking about Alicia and Nick once again.

She was still brooding over it when Nick broke the silence

“Why don’t you ask?”He said softly

“What ?”

“You saw me with Alicia earlier”He said

“Yes I did”She replied

“Alicia is just a……”

“You don’t have to explain your self, what you do with your life is your business and what I do with mine is my business, you are my guard and I thank you for being there for me, watching over me and……”

“Did you just thank me?”Nick asked

“What?”

“You just thanked me! Have never heard that word from you before, Stacey is right?*He said softly

“Why do you say that ?” Celine asked

“It’s a Secret”He said as he drove into the mansion.

She couldn’t get to ask him any more question and they couldn’t get to talk about Alicia and her role in his life because Stacey and the other workers were out side awaiting their arrival

“What’s going on?”Celine asked as soon as Stacey released her from the hug.

“Since it’s your first day at college today, we all decided to prepare a surprise for you” Stacey said

“We arranged a small gathering and it was Nick idea”Stacey added.

She stared at Nick who shrug and walked towards them.

“You won’t refuse it, a lot of people have put in a lot of work just to make this small party happen and besides it’s been long since I had a bit of fun”Nick said and before Celine could protest a bit more, he pulled her into the mansion.

The guest who had gathered for the small party were none other than the maid, they were having a good time when they all walked in.

“Loosen your self a bit and just enjoy the party!”Nick said behind her and though she felt a bit shivery by his nearness, she moved to one of the empty seats watching her employee having fun.

It’s been long since the house has been this lively, she miss having fun and she regret spending most of her time locked up and feeling bitter.

She stared at Nick who was now dancing with Stacey along with the other employee and smiled feeling very happy in a long time.

“The drink have finish Stacey”one of the maid said interrupting their dance

“Really? I thought I bought a lot”Stacey said

“Well we all have finish it, I can get some if you will just……”

“No need! I will get it myself”Stacey said and the maid walked off to join the other guest.

“Mind if I come with you? There is some thing I need to ask you”He said and Stacey nodded.

As soon as they told Celine where they were headed to, they left the mansion.

“It’s just a few minutes walk, no need to take the car”Stacey said to Nick and they both walk out of the room.

“So what do you want to talk to me about?”Stacey asked

“Well it’s about the document I told you the other day, I went into the study and while checking around,I saw a cabinet which was locked, I wonder if you had the key “he said softly

“When Celine father died, she asked us to lock the door and the key have been with her, you can ask her for it but….. do you know what that document is about?”She asked

“I…..”he stopped when he got a call and it was from Celine

“Have been trying to reach Stacey but she didn’t take her phone with her and so i decided to call you”She began softly and Nick had to smile to her excuse

“Okay, why did you call?”He asked

“Well I need to get some few things and….. what’s going on”She said suddenly

“What happen?”Nick asked, his protective instinct on alert

“The lift….it won’t open, the lights went out and oh God…..oh no…….” Those were the the last words he heard before she cut the call.

“What’s wrong?”Stacey asked

“The lights went off and Celine is trapped in the lift”Nick said

“What! She can’t be trapped in the lift, she is claustrophobic and she….she might die Nick! She might die of suffocation”Stacey said.

(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!
