Tianna passes by me smiling. All I can do is pray that her drunk mortal ass doesn't embarrass the both of us. "I remember the first time I realized that my best friend was head over heels in love with Aiden. We were sixteen. Our dated arrived at the shifter compound to escort us to the Hybrid Ball. Remi's date was looking sharp in his Armani tuxedo and shiny dress shoes. His hair was slicked back, he was a handsome fella. Then again most of you paras are. But he lost he attention the minute Aiden walked through the door of the sitting room. Aiden, dressed in leather pants, a white t-shirt with his cut on, and some dusty old boots. His hair was all over the place, but that didn't matter to Remi. Her eyes were glued to him and followed him around the room as he talked to Gunner. Aiden told her she looked beautiful. Now, I'm not a para, but I swear to this day. I could heart her heart beating against her ribs. For the first time in ever, I watched Remi blush. Fastforward a bit. I get a

I've never been the type of para to hide from a fight. But Cera was right. I'm not at my best right now. And it's no longer just me I have to worry about. Aiden and I now have the twins to worry about too. "I'll go." Blaze and Gunner volunteer at the same time. "Gunner you're not going anywhere near her. For all we know the female you knocked up has been the one pumping you for information on Remi. And feeding it back to that Savannah bitch." Kieran's eyes narrow at his son. "Remi, has never been a topic during our conversations. All she knows is that I have a sister. I'm not letting Remi and Aiden face this without me!" Gunner roars. "You chose a side already. And it was the wrong one!" Kieran roars back. "Enough!" Lucifer shouts. Illianna crosses the room back over to where Lucifer stands. "I'm going!" Kallista says proudly. "No you are most certainly not!" Illianna shouts looking to Lucifer for help. "Yes. I. Am! I want to be there when the babies come. I need to be there t

"You're out of your mind if you think I'm letting you go there. No, we have to find another way." Aiden says after seeing where I'm willing to hide myself and these pups to keep us safe. Well as safe as it is possibile for one to be in the middle of Hell. "Then we announce the mating ceremony. Announce it on social media and in the newspaper. All twelve of the bidders will not be able to stop themselves from stopping this ceremony. Especially since they don't know that our bond has already been sealed. Set the ceremony for the weekend after fight night. If they're gonna make a move they will have to make it fast. It will be sloppy and not well planned out. We might be able to capture somebody that can clue us into what the hell is going on.""There's no way in Hell; we're seriously considering this!" Kieran shouts."I think Remi is onto something. She's right. The pressure will be on the twelve bidders to get to her before the ceremony. We can use a female Fae soldier to glamour hers

"I take it this is the father. Remi I need you to lift the gown over your belly. Tuck it under your breasts." Dr. Williams chuckles. "Yes. This is Aiden Ramos, my fated mate." I say. "Aiden, you have officially survived the first two trimesters with a pregnant para. Congratulations!" Aiden looks at the doctor with a what the hell are you talking about look.Dr. Williams claps his hands. "Okay! Tough crowd. Down to the nitty gritty. So we're gonna use this machine to look in at the twins. I squirt this gel onto Remington's stomach and this wand here will project an image of the babies on the screen.""I've seen this done before. I just didn't know what Doc was actually looking at. He said he was scanning Remi's organs." Dr. Williams nurse measures my stomach and tells it to the doctor. He types it in on his laptop then rolls his chair over to my bed. "Today we're going try to get a measurement on them, and listen to their heartbeats. Then we're going to check their weight. Do you tw

"Yes, I'm sure Bael is still locked up. The hellhound guarding him would've came to me if someone set him free." Lucifer sounds slightly pissed. Looks like I've upset the ruler of hell. That doesn't stop me though. I have questions and I deserve answers. "Who all knows where he's being kept in hell? Who could or would set him free?" I ask placing my hands on my hips. "Bael is guarded by hellhounds! Original hellhounds! Bael's lock is spelled. In order for the lock to open you'd need the blood of the original hellhound I used to trap him, and either myself or a direct descendant." Lucifer pales as he starts to fall backwards. Illianna uses her magic to pull a chair under him. He's come to realization I had in the car ride home. He let the only person able and willing to set Bael free; go. He had the chance to end her and he didn't. Why? Because she was family. "Who knows who the original hellhound is? Who knows where Bael is placed?" Blaze and Aiden roar. Lucifer runs his hands ove
