“Why do you think the lawyer came to see her?”Nick asked as he and Stacey hovered at the dining room waiting for Celine and the lawyer to come.
“He only comes to this house to talk about the company welfare and also to bring bad news, Celine
3 father had left her his shares, Bruce tried buying it at that time but she wouldn’t sell, the lawyer has been managing it for her for years now and If he is here, definitely its not because of some thing good”Stacey said
“Miss Celine! Miss Celine!” The lawyer voice was the first thing they heard before seeing Celine limping towards the front door
“What’s going on?”Stacey asked as she ran towards the lawyer
“She found out some thing her step father did and has decided to go and confront him”The lawyer said and on hearing that Nick ran after Celine.
She was just getting into the car when he got there
“What is it?”She asked looking all cold and distant.
Is she the one that melted in his arms a while ago, the girl that had shown him her other side, the girl that had been filled with warmth, he thought starring at the angry look on her face.
“If you are going to try to stop then forget it because have……”
“Move over”He said and that cut her short, she moved and he sat down beside her while the chauffeur began the car
“Why are you coming with me?”she asked
“It’s my job and besides you will need a guard there with you if you are going to the company”he said and she nodded softly
“Back to being the guard again”She said and he could notice the anger in her voice.
She was still angry, angry that the situation from earlier didn’t affect him at all, angry with her self for loving him all the same .
“I heard from your lawyer that you are going to confronting Bruce”He said softly
“Yes am planning on confronting him”She said softly
“Don’t you think it’s……”
“I told you that I don’t want you trying to stop me, it won’t work, that man sold his share and the company share just to make himself the president,my father was the one who created the company and even though he is dead, he will keep on being the president, I won’t let Bruce get his way this time”Celine said looking very determined, he knew when to give up and that time is now, he thought as the car stopped in front of the company.
Celine got out and began heading inside with Nick accompanying her.
Knowing her way in the company, she took the lift and went to the top floor, that place had belonged to her father and Bruce had taken over when he died, she was so wrapped up in her sorrow to care about what happened but now she is fine and ready to take on Bruce and any problem that has to do with her father company.
Celine was too deep in her thought to realise that she was claustrophobic and that she was in a lift.
The lift door opened and she got out of it it to be stopped by a lady, judging from the way she dressed you could tell that she was the new secretary Bruce hired after her father former secretary quit.
“Am sorry Miss but you can’t go in if you don’t have an appointment, Mr Bruce is with some one now and he has asked me not to let any one in”she said
“I bet he is in with the person he sold all of his shares to”And with that last remark, she walked past the secretary, she would have been stopped if it hadn’t been for Nick who held back the secretary.
Knowing where her father office was situated, she got to the door and opened with out even knocking.
Bruce sat at her father old spot, starring at her while his visitor sat on the chair with his back faced towards her.
“Why are you here Celine!”Bruce said
“Weren’t expecting me right? Well here I am and I want an explanation or no I demand an explanation”
“Explanation to what? This is none of your business, just go to school and focus on your studies “he said
“It is my business”Celine said raising her voice.
“I might not know some things when it comes to business but I Cleary under stand what is going on”
“You have been using the company for your own gain and that is what is happening now, you think that I don’t have some one informing me, well I got a message and have been told of your dubious plans”She added hotly.
“And if you know what do you intend to do?”The visitor he had in the room spoke and at the same time, he turned in his seat to stare at her.
She recognised him immediately, he was the guy, the guy with the voice, the one who had asked for direction that day.
“Judging by the look on your face, you remember me right?”
“Are you perhaps the one who now owns 60 percent of the company shares?” She asked and he nodded, flashing her a smile a lot of girls would have died for well apart from her
“Yes miss Clifford and am Thomas….Thomas Davenport” he said stretching out his hand and Celine stared at it coldly.
Thomas hadn’t expect her to show up when he was around, he was meaning to give her the news by going to Clifford mansion but seeing her here surprised him and he wouldn’t that the angry look emanating from her makes her look beautiful.
“Keep your filthy introduction to your self, as long as you work together with my step father you are nothing but a thief”
“Celine watch your…..”
“Shut up Bruce! Have had it with you, first you took my father company, did it as you want for a year,then took my mom from my father and I and also threatened to call me crazy if I don’t give you what you want.i did as you asked but am really disappointment, is this the best you could do with it!”She said trying to inflict hurt Into Bruce.
“Watch what you say Celine….you have no idea what I…..”
“Just stop! Am not my mom who buys your lies, you and this sleazy thief like……”
“Hold on a sec….it’s one thing to insult Bruce and another to do to me, I….”
“What? Do you intend to beat me, Mr Davenport?”She said and Thomas couldn’t deny that he liked the way she stood up to him.
Never has he been treated with such disdain and action from a female, Celine Clifford is certainly the first to treat him that way, he thought as he stared at her.
“I want you to get out of the this place….”
“That’s enough Celine”Bruce warned
“Get out of here and take with you your darn money and…..”
“I said it’s enough!!!!”Bruce said walking towards her raising his hand,ready to hit her.
Celine turned away, expecting the hit but then she didn’t feel a thing.
She opened her eyes only to see Nick standing in front of her holding Bruce outstretched hand.
“Don’t you ever raise your hand on her !”Nick said starring at Bruce and then at Thomas who had a smile on his face.
He must have come to this company intentionally, Nick knew that when he has seen them at the college that day, he would try to make some mischief and that is what he is doing right now.
“You know that am your boss right?how dare you do this”Bruce said
“I dare to because I don’t fancy men laying their hands on the females, much less on Celine!”Nick said pushing his hand away
“Celine? Am surprised that a mere worker is addressing you by your name, do I get that privilege too?”, Thomas asked
“Not at all, like have said before, I want you out of my father company, if possible, Bruce can get lost with you too, have had enough of his nonsense, I won’t tolerate more him and neither from you too Mr, this is my father company and it is also mine now, so leave while am being nice, I won’t be nice the next time we meet”She said and turned to leave the room.
One last look at the two men, Nick went after Celine.
“That spoiled……”
“Just let her be?”Thomas said stopping Bruce from going after them
“Didn’t you see how rude she was!”Bruce yelled out
“I saw it and I don’t mind, I find it to be fascinating”He said
“Are you nuts? What is fascinating about Celine temper?”he asked and Thomas smiled
“A lot and don’t worry, nothing will happen, neither she or any one can stop this from happening,so put your mind at rest and Instead tell me more about Celine and when I say more, I want to know everything”He 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!
