Aya brought me back to the present" I was on the verge of death. I knew if I were to survive, it had to send my lifeforce away into someone of my bloodline. So, I sent it to this period. Into the body of a girl born 21 years ago as a wolf who I knew would be my doppelganger mated to his doppelganger. A spell would make sure of it. I sent a message to my mother to do anything she can to capture the moon goddess child of this period.""I figured maybe I could use my old love doppelganger Roland's blood, instead of waiting for you. I made sure he fell in love with me, trusted me. The spell I used made sure I was chosen as his first mate. I had to wait until he reached an age, I could make the power work. I needed the blood of wolves and vampire bodies alike. So, I kidnapped many of them and killed them, draining their blood. Somehow, he caught word of where my mother was hiding since I left her in charge of the bodies. I knew I had to act quickly. I persuaded him to let me join him and

Elena’s PovNOMarcus's head is in my hands as I cradle it, sobbing. Everyone seemed to be watching me. Diane ran back to Aya and stood behind her. "Come back to me Marcus", I sobbed."COME BACK" I screamed, sobbing. His limp body doesn't move."Mother, did you have to do that? He was dying already, Aya said. " It was taking too long, and that bitch deserved it for what she did to Ned," Diane said."No, no, no, no, no. I rock Marcus back and forth. My heart is shattering as I feel the complete break of my first mate bond. My first love. I'm still rocking his body thinking about his blue eyes, those sky-blue eyes. His smile. I'll never see his smile again. I'll never hear his laugh again or hear him call me his Luna. He was in all of this because of me. He was killed because he loved me. Everyone seemed to be dying, because of me. I see my aura tuning colors. White, red, blue, gold, brown, green, but that doesn't faze me.I can’t I can’tI can’tI pass outRoland PovI didn't know E

Nate PovWhen we got back to the packhouse, I went back to my room to tell Serene everything that had happened. SHHHHH, she said, making sure I brought my voice down and kissed me."Babe, whose kids are these", I asked." These are our future alphas," Serene says, looking at the babies proudly. She told me the story of Elena and the babies." Roland is gonna flip his shit when he Finds out," I told her. "Roland's not the only one," she said."Hunh"She handed me two pregnancy tests. "Babe, are you telling me what I think you're telling me," I asked."Yes", she said." I'm 6 weeks pregnant babe". She says, smilingHOLY FUCKING SHITI'm so happy I twirl her around and I kiss her all over her face and shoulders. I want to do more; I mind link Maggie to come and watch the babies.

Elena Pov (After the Wedding)Roland took me to France for our honeymoon. I told him I always wanted to go to a nude beach as a joke and he took me seriously.TypicalThe water on this beach is so beautiful. I decided I wasn't comfortable being fully nude, so right now the only thing I'm wearing is dark blue thong swimwear bottoms. My hair is long enough to cover up my breasts.

When I came back out, Roland was gone. "Roland" I called. No response. I checked the entire floor, but I couldn't find him. When I went back to the living room, Roland jumped out of nowhere, yelling. "Boo" I scream "Did you miss me?" he
