EDENAlicia and I just sat outside on the chairs by the pool, taking in the fresh breeze of the early evening when we heard a scream.We’d been bored, with nothing to do all afternoon. Without due dates getting closer and closer, it felt like we were carrying the whole world in our bellies.“When this baby comes out, I’m going to leave the kids with Henry and run away to another country. That’s payback for leaving me alone for all this while.”We laughed.‘I’m sure he’ll understand. You deserve a break.”‘We deserve breaks. I feel like I'm carrying more than one kid in my belly. I really hope it's not twins, I might actually cry.”“No, I'd love for them to be twins. It would be so lovely to be their aunt.”She gave me the stink eye.“Of course, it will be lovely. You’re not the one carrying them, how about you give birth to twins too and I carry them?”“No, I'm sure this child will be a boy. Just one boy, I'm sure of it.”She rolled her eyes and nodded.“Never in my life did I think w

ROWANWe found her body on the ground but her head was hung on the ceiling, her hair used as ropes.The scene before us was mortifying. When I was called down as a state of emergency, I thought it was because Elena had tried to kill herself or she had decided to sell me the truth about Rowan. I hadn’t been expecting this.From the gate, the two guards that had been placed at the gate were on the floor motionless and there was no blood around them.“They’re dead, Alpha.” Lucian declared.I checked again to be double sure. He was right, they were dead.I walked past them, walking deeper into the cell when I began to see the liquid around me. It was like a stream, flowing from a headless source.The first thing I saw was not actually the blood but the bone in her neck from where she had been decapitated.Her body lay on the floor, in the pool of blood and there was still blood dripping from her head to the floor.Only two questions were on my mind.How did he manage to overpower her and
EdenI picked Ethan up in my arms and brought him closer to me. It wasn't him, it wasn't my baby. Nothing happened to him.It's okay. My kids are fine.Alicia entered the room alert and calmed down when she saw my smile.“It’s not him. It's not my baby. It's not Ethan.”Thank you Herschel for protecting him. The fact that he was still sleeping soundly in all of this.“I’m so happy. I'm so happy.”Alicia came around and sat with us.“Where are the kids? Did you leave them down there?”“Relax, they went to their rooms. They're in their rooms."I didn't know why I was being out through all of this. What did I do to deserve it? I couldn't continue to live in fear for my children's lives all the days of my life. They'd already been traumatized enough. He almost killed Belle!.”Alicia, I'm leaving.”“I’m going back home. I don't think I can stay here anymore. With the way things are going, I don't want it to be one of my kids one day. I Won't be able to handle it, Alicia. Coco can come stay
EDENI looked down at the baby in my arms, as Roman had the widest smile I had ever seen.He looked like a little puppy right now who had just been given the treat he'd asked for.”Come here. Hold your son.”He cleaned his hands on his jeans and stepped forward, taking a seat beside me.His smile deemed a bit as he looked at him.“I’ve never carried a baby before. What if I injure him?”I laughed."He's your son. You can't hurt him.”He gave me a look first before looking at him again and stretching out his hand to hold him.I could see that he was nervous when I first placed him in his hands and I placed my hands under his to help him.”Are you okay?”He didn’t even answer me, he just placed his eyes on the baby.My son was finally here. His birth was everything I wanted it to be. Painless and quick. By the time the doctor got here, he was already crowing.“Roman.” I heard him say.“What? My son, Roman.”He looked at me like he was seeking my permission. I just smiled and nodded. The
THIRD PERSON POV.I picked up the phone and pressed it to my ear, letting it ring while I watched the bastard get flogged.“Stop shouting. I’m making a call.”I chased them away when the call connected.“How are things over there? Have you started making plans?”“Yes, I've given the declaration of war already and I'm already making plans to advance to his pack very soon.”It’s a good thing I called him now.“Call it off.”He cleared his throat.“What did you say?”“I said, call it off. Fall back, cancel the whole thing, I don't want it anymore.”He laughed deeply and I let him, so that I could continue talking.“You know that's not possible so why do you say things like that? Don’t joke like that. I plan on going over this weekend to take care of that bastard and you can’t stop me. I’ve already had so many things, so I hope you’re joking.”“I’m not joking, Cage. Call the entire thing off.”After thinking about it for a while, I decided to start making plans by myself. The more I thoug
THIRD PERSON'S POVNow, the only thing on my mind was how I was going to get Eden’s blood and Roman’s as well. Since they had decided not to come back to New York, it also meant that I was left with nothing to do and no way to get to them.When I received the call of her death and how she had died, I felt so much relief. Rowan had done the perfect job and I was sure that Roman would want to relocate back here.The scene had been so gruesome that the pictures made me feel nauseous.“Good job.”Making Rowan had been the hardest part of this mission. Yes, making.He wasn’t real. He is the product of several nights of incantations and blood sacrifices. His forming had taken a long time since no special blood was involved and as soon as I got information that he was ready, I got in contact with Elena immediately.It wasn’t hard getting her on my side. She was a golddigger with a crazy and unhealthy obsession for Roman so she was very happy to carry out this plan.The plan was for her to t
EDENWe were going back to New York. A lot has happened in the past few days.I’d woken up that night with no recollection of the dream I had even though i knew that i had a dream. It had been happening more frequently. I would have dreams and would wake up with only the knowledge that I had a dream but I won't remember anything about it.Oh well, i wa just happy that i wasn’t dead and that i got to see my baby. When I found out that Alicia had twins. They looked so beautiful and I loved how she was so happy. She deserved all the happiness she could get right now.At least, it would take her mind off Henry’s disappearance. She wished he were there at their birth because he would have loved to see him but oh well.The day after we gave birth, Alicia was in my room with the kids while Roman had successfully taken my child away from me. I loved how he was holding the baby so gentle. He truly had not held a baby before and it showed. This big bad man being so soft for someone so little.
