Anya stood in front of her window, angry years streaming down her eyes. She was touching her flat stomach. She still couldn’t believe her precious baby was gone.

“Sharon. Enjoy it while it last. I will make sure you pay for what you’ve done to me. For killing my baby.” Anya with so much anger in her voice. Her hands were tightened into a fist. She wanted to kill, strangle and destroy the lady that killed her innocent baby. She was searching for a way to do that and sooner or later, she will find one.

,

Jaden stood with her arms crossed in front of her as she watched her friend, getting ready for the horse riding. She couldn’t possibly come up with any idea on how to stop her from going out for the trip.

“Hey! Stop glaring at me like that and get ready. Akim will soon be ready to pick us up. Aren’t you going?” Kaylan asked over her shoulder as she continued ransacking through her closet.

Jaden rolled her eyes. “Okay. Okay…..fine. I will go get ready.”

*
*

Akim came out of his room only to run into Sharon who was just arriving the palace. “Here again.”

Sharon smiled, looking at him. “Yeah. I’m here for the lessons.”

“Really? That sounds like a lie. I’m sure you are here for my arrogant cousin.”

“You are all dressed up for a tour. Where are you headed?” Sharon asked.

“Horse riding with Kaylan and Jaden.” Akim replied.

Sharon smiled again. “That sounds interesting. You like her…. don’t you? Oh, don’t deny it. I’ve seen the way you look at her.”

“I’m just being concerned. She’s family. Her supposed husband doesn’t care about her.”

Sharing looked at him and shrugged. “Yeah. Do everything possible to take her away. She’s blocking my path.”

“I know what you did. Why did you got her drunk?” Akim asked, folding his arms.

“Just for some fun.” Sharon replied with a smile and walked off.

Akim turned to look at her and shook his head. He’s never seen someone so obsessed. He walked away, straight to Kaylan’s room.

*
*
He’s here already. We need to go.”, Kaylan said in a hurry as a knock came on the door.

Jaden dragged her feet on the ground as she walked towards the door. She opened it and saw Akim standing outside.

For a full minute, she stared at him. Unblinking. Unshakably. She tightened her hand on the doorknob and seized her breath.

“Jaden? Are you okay?” Akim asked after watching her for a while.

Jaden smirked. “What do you care?” She asked rudely and moved away from the door.

Akim stared for a moment, wondering why she attacked him that way.

He waved it off with a shrug and stepped into the room. He smiled on seeing Kaylan and how beautiful she looked.

“Wow. Princess Kaylan…..you look beautiful. Lovely.” Akim said, staring all over her.

Kaylan laughed heartily and twirled around in front of him. “Really? I know, right?”

Jaden stood, looking at them. She thought Kaylan was getting too close to Akim but actually, she didn’t know if that was the only thing that was somehow painful.

Kaylan suddenly turned to look at her and found her staring. “Jaden? You’ve been silent. Are you okay?”

Jaden suddenly repositioned, and nodded. “Yeah. Fine.”

“Okay girls. Let’s get going. We don’t want the snow to catch up with us.” Akim said, taking Kaylan’s hand.

“Come on Jaden. Cheer up!” Kaylan grumbled as they all left the room.

“Whatever.” Jaden mumbled with an eye roll.

Xander sat on his single throne chair, outside the veranda, looking out around the palace surroundings.

He had everything he has always wanted. Fame. Power. Money. Respect. The people’s fear and loyalty.

He had them all but yet, he still felt completely empty.

Why?

He’s asked that question countless times and now, he had the bitter answer. The bitter truth.

That one thing he couldn’t have ….a child to call his own.

A woman to love and cherish.

It made him feel completely empty.

He sighed, reached out and took hold of the goblet beside him. He sipped from the drink in it, stared down at the dark content.

Axel came out from the door behind, bowed as he stood before him. “My Lord. Some delegates….”

Xander shook his head, put up a finger. “I don’t wanna see anyone right now. Tell them I’m not available.”

Axel was quiet for a while. He bowed and left afterwards.

He heard a beautiful laughter from a distance and when he looked up, he saw Kaylan and Akim coming out of the adjacent building. He stared on, his eyes focused on them.

Akim was holding Kaylan’s hand. Again.

His fingers tightened around his goblet, unable to define the feeling he got from seeing them together again.

He sensed they were going towards the stable where the horses were kept.

Xander looked over his shoulder, called out Axel’s name in his cold and bold voice.

Axel appeared immediately and stood behind him, awaiting his order.

“Bring Kaylan to me.”

“Yes my Lord.” Axel replied and quickly left to carry out the Master’s order.

*
*

“Oh my gosh. This horse is beautiful!” Kaylan mussed loudly as she pointed to a white horse, chewing on a carrot.

Akim laughed. “That is Lord Xander’s favorite horse. I don’t want any trouble. You know how your husband is.”

Kaylan rolled her eyes. “Thank God you said my husband. Let’s go with it. He might not be around to see us.”

“I guess you are wrong.” Jaden mumbled as she saw Axel approaching.

Kaylan rolled her eyes. Axel coming to them only meant one thing; Lord Xander was around.

“My princess. My Lord seeks your presence.” Axel said, bowing.

“What? Right now?” Kaylan asked.

“Oh my God. He saw us.” Jaden mumbled.

“Okay. Fine. I’m right behind you. You can go. I’m coming right behind you.”, Kaylan said to Akim who turned and started heading back.

“You can go. We will wait for you here.” Akim said.

“Huh? No. I think you should come with me. Please.” Kaylan pleaded.

“Okay but we will just wait behind.”

*
*

Kaylan heart beat a loudly as she came out into the veranda and saw Xander sitting so quietly. She didn’t know what to do and decided to stand instead, her eyes on the floor.

Xander turned, looked at her. As always, she was beautiful. Captivating.

Even though he didn’t want to, he forced himself to look away.

“Where are you going?” He asked, his voice was surprisingly soft and Kaylan blinked.

“I’m just gonna hang out with Akim. We are going for horse riding.” Kaylan replied, still staring at the ground.

“Look at me.” Xander said. It sounded like an order and Kaylan slowly lifted her eyes.

She stared at his face and saw the rising anger in them.

“You were gonna leave without telling me?” Xander asked, holding her gaze.

Kaylan’s lips parted but no words came out. She was somehow surprised. He now cares about her whereabouts??

(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!
