“Baby girl, are you sure that you don’t want to go to the hospital?” Nathan asked Katerina for the fifth time this morning. Her husband has been growing more anxious with her waking up sick, and not knowing the reason behind it; he was confused about his wife’s reasons not wanting to see a doctor in such a situation. “Nathan, my love, I am fine” “This is the third time this week that you wake up sick, baby, not to mention the fact that you’ve been growing dizzier” he said, cupping her cheeks “and don’t think for a second that I haven’t realized that your body is growing tired. The black circles under your eyes and your pale face” “My love, I am living for two, and it would be taking me a while to get used to” Katerina said, making Nathan frown in confusion, not understanding what she was saying. Katerina smiled, taking his hand in hers, and putting it on her stomach. She had found out about it last night and wanted to surprise her husband; however, it seemed like Nathan was a littl

He walked through the empty halls of the room he was called to. His heart raced against his ribcage as he caught her scent, his mate’s; however, she was nowhere to be seen. The Alpha was bleeding and badly injured. His head throbbed with each step he took due to the impact he had earlier; but he didn’t care. He kept walking. He knew that he had to find her, and he wasn’t planning on leaving without her. “I see that you’ve really made it” the Lycan said, looking at the Alpha. He stood in front of him, chuckling at his sight “is she really worth all this fuss?” “Where is she?” He asked, glaring at the Lycan who smirked at him, enjoying his reaction “where the fuck is my mate?” “Now, now, tone down the attitude, wolf” he said, mocking him. The Lycan hated the fact that normal wolves existed to begin with, and seeing them as nothing but slaves to Lycans, what he and the other elders called ‘true bloods’, he proved it in the way he spoke to the raging Alpha “she is sitting right in f

Nathan:“Good morning, baby girl” I whispered, kissing Calista’s hand as she sat on my lap. She has been sitting there, playing, and pretending to draw patterns for the past fifteen minutes, and despite hoping that she would eventually get tired and stop, it seemed like my little princess had other plans.“Good morning” she said, smiling brightly. Katerina was still fast asleep, curled up beside me, and checking the time, I knew that her alarm was still fifteen minutes away from ringing; therefore, Calista should have been asleep for a while longer.“Why are you awake, princess?” I asked, getting up and lifting her with me. Katerina stirred a little, and frowning in her sleep, she opened her eyes to look at me.“Nathan?” She asked, frowning in confusion. She rubbed her eyes from sleep, noticing our daughter awake in my arms before she checked the phone in fear that she slept in.“Calista woke up a little early, malyshka, don’t worry” I said, sitting beside her. So much for not waking

Nathan:“Mummy!” Elijah said excitedly. Katerina laughed and got down on my knees, hugging him tightly before kissing his forehead.“Good morning to you too, darling” my beauty said, smiling at him. Calista ran to my arms, giggling when I lifted her. I watched as my wife got up and carried Elijah to the dining table, smiling at the sight of Inna and Dimitri who were sitting, watching us.“Good morning to the whole family” Carter said, entering alongside Jade who had her daughter in her arms.Katerina put Elijah down and turned to face the beta, playfully glaring at him, watching as he took a step back in mocking surrender “what did I do this time?” “Oh, you are so going to bloody get it” Katerina said, glaring at him. “Wait, what did I do?” Carter asked, letting his mate go as he caught my wife, stopping her from attacking him, knowing that she won’t do anything anyway. Katerina laughed and Carter turned her around, pinning her to his chest, wrapping her own arms around herself, res

Nathan:“What did you find?” I asked my wife as she sat in the living room alongside my father. “Nothing that you wouldn’t have heard from Natasha yet, but the main issue is there isn’t an Elijah or Alexander in the history of the House of Grimaldi” Katerina said, making me frown in confusion as I sat on the floor beside her. Dimitri was sitting on the couch while my beauty was reading through different books while she sat cross legged on the floor.“She is right, we tried searching through every scroll, book, or parchment that we could find. The House of Grimaldi ended with three members of the family. Sienna Pazzi, as his wife, Sienna Grimaldi, Alberto Grimaldi, and their son, Giuliano Grimaldi. It is said that they died in the plague, at least that is what the books say, it could be a different case, but the House of Grimaldi spread around since then, and most of their wealth was spread between the people or those who managed to survive the black death” Dimitri said, looking at me
