QUINN

My door flung open when I'd just begun falling asleep. I'd had a long night last night, staying up to do some work and it had run pretty late.

My head was banging and I was very hungry but I still had to come into the office today and work. Roman needed help putting things together and I couldn't just dump that on Lucian.

Speaking of Lucian, he was the one who walked through the door, looking handsome as usual with his hair pushed back away from his face and his thick black mustache sitting firmly in the middle of his face.

The way he stared at me as he walked in, made me wonder if I had drooled a bit. I sat up right as he dropped the file on my table.

“What is this?” I patted my hair down Incase I had bed hair. Gosh, this was so embarrassing.

“It’s a list of the men I was able to gather for the army. Their names, ages and packs.”

This should be enough for what Roman wanted to do. This would be more than enough. This Cage issue had him on the edge and then, there was the Henry i

    EDENIt had been particularly cold that day which made it easier for me to fall asleep.I'd stopped having naps in the afternoon for a while. What happened to Alicia scared me, and I feared that with the way I stressed myself, it would happen to me too.Although Roman made sure that a nurse came around everyday to check our blood pressure and make sure that everything was fine, I was still scared.It wasn't long after I fell asleep that I began to dream.Well, it wasn't a dream per se but a vision.I was standing in front of a large body of water. What was I doing here? “You have to hurry!” A voice behind me startled me “Belle is in danger! You have to save her.”I couldn't see who was talking but the voice sounded familiar. I jolted away, looking around for a moment to make sure that I was in the real world. I had a dream… Belle!I got down from the bed as fast as I could with my big round belly and ran out. My visions were always right and I wonder what form of danger she could be

    ROMAN“Roman!”I turned around just in time to see Belle's body hit the ground. My mind cleared at that moment and I ran over to her, picking her up.“Quinn, call the doctor! Call the doctor now!”I laid her in my room, and placed her on my lap, hoping to warm her up. I momentarily glanced at Eden who was freaking out.“It’s going to be okay, baby. Nothing is going to happen to her. Just relax.”I tried warming her up with my hands and even putting her against my bare chest but it was like it made things worse.“Roman, she's losing color.”I looked down at her. Her former bluish color has not turned to white and even down to her lips.“Shit. Someone get the damn doctor!"I had to check if her heart was still beating. My fingers pressed against her neck, feeling around and when I couldn't find a pulse, my heart started to beat quickly.“What? What is it?” Eden noticed the distress on my face.I quickly changed my expression.“Nothing, it's nothing.”She wiped the tears on her face.“Sh

    EDENI dragged the wet towel across her forehead and placed it back into the bowl of cold water.It has been three days and she still hasn't woken up. The doctor faithfully paid visits to her daily at Romans’ request, his concern etched on the furrowed lines on his forehead. He was just as confused as we were.Why hadn't she woken up yet?Her vitals were stable, so far, and based on his examinations, there was nothing wrong with her so why wasn't she waking up?I checked time and time again to make sure that she was still breathing. Roman had told me that there was no reason to worry but I couldn't help it. My child wasn't waking up she was showing no signs of waking up so I should be worried.I was still very mad at Roman because this was all his fault. He brought that boy into this house and he almost killed her.What would have happened if I didn't have that vision?Or what would have happened if I didn't find her in time?Yet Roman hadn't done anything about it. I didn't care what

    ROMANMy mind wasn't at peace today. There were a lot of things going on and it seemed like I was the one to solve them all.Eden was mad at me over the whole Rowan thing and frankly, her anger was justified. Her child had been out at risk and I know it seemed like I was supporting him but I wasn't.I just didn't want to chase him away. I felt some sort of obligation towards him as his father. Quinn still hadn't brought the footage so until she did so and I watched it, I'd hold off on making my decision.I didn't want to leave him to the mercy of Elena. She may not treat him well since her plan with me didn't work out. She may blame him for it. Having her as a mother was one thing but then, being her punchbag was something I wouldn't allow.Then there was still the issue of Henry missing. Frankly, I was at a loss for what to do regarding that.There were no leads whatsoever and it felt like I was making Alicia lose hope but I was trying my best.Issue number three was that Belle hadn'

    EDENI felt the space beside where I laid my head dip and that could only mean one thing. I didn't raise my head or open my eyes immediately because I had stayed up all night waiting for her to wake up.It had been five days already and I was barely at peace because of it. her hand had twice yesterday but that was sall. She didn't wake up and I had to ask Roman to call the doctor to do a thorough checkup.The doctor advised that we bring her to the hospital for scans so they can check her entire body which we did and so far, the only problem was that her sugar was a bit low but that wasn't enough to make her not wake up.Not being able to sleep, I stayed at her bedside and hoped that she would just open her eyes. Ethan had come around and asked what was wrong with her and I just had to tell him that she was really really tired.He had been asking so many questions about her and I had run out of lies to tell him.When I felt but me, my eyes flew open immediately and I met with her eye

    ROMANI was in my office when Quinn walked in. I hadn’t seen her since that day and I had wanted to speak to her but a lot of things have been going on.After I got information that Belle had woken up, I’d abandoned everything that I was doing and rushed to her. Quickly rushing her to the hospital, the doctor said that she was fine and everything was going to be okay.Eden still wasn’t speaking to me since everything had happened and I didn’t even know where to start from. After I was back from the hospital, I came across a file on my table that contained the list of men that I wanted to join the army.After finishing up with the file, I went back to the room to speak to Eden. I haven't spoken to her in days and it was killing me. I knew that she was mad at me and I had accepted my fault in all of this but unfortunately, there was little to nothing that I could do.She didn't want to listen to me, she just turned to face the wall and went to sleep.She dropped her phone on my table.“

    ROMANI dropped everything I was doing since my brain couldn’t fathom anything I was reading. Thi Was the first time I would panic when a declaration had been given to me. In fact, this was the first time that a declaration would be given to me because I was the one always giving them out and since I was on the council, it made things easier for me.But it seemed things had changed since the last time I was there. Were they nuts? THow could they approve such a thing knowing fully well the stakes at hand. I wasn't alone, I had my family to think about and they had gone to do this.“Quinn! Lucian!” I knocked on the door and they both came out immediately.“Get the car ready. We’re going to see the council. This madness has to end today.”“What’s going on? Why are we going there?”I looked towards the stairs before opening my mouth but Lucian interrupted us.“Let’s go. We’ll talk in the car.”As we were loaded in the car, Quinn turned to me.“Roman, what is it? You’re scaring me.”“The

    QUINN“I feel like this dress makes me look fat. I look like the wicked stepmother from movies.”Alicia turned to give me a look before continuing to search through the closet for a dress.“You’ve said that about every dress that you’ve worn.”“Because it’s true.”“No, it’s not. You’ve actually looked really good in everything that you’ve worn so there is no need to feel like this. I'm sure Lucian will find you very pretty and maybe at the end of the night, the dress might not even matter anymore.”My mouth dropped as I processed what she said.“You shouldn’t be saying these kinds of things with that bay in your tummy.”Alicia laughed.“I told her before but she doesn't listen.”“Well, that’s not going to be an issue because if this baby is anything like Roman, then no matter what I do, he will be like Roman.”“I found it!” Alicia announced.It was a very beautiful, long red dress with a very high slit and deep cleavage.“That is…that is going to get me places I don't want to go.

    THIRD PERSON POVWhile everyone back home was looking for Roman, he was on the other side of the town, looking through his pockets and swearing that he carried his phone.The minister noticed that he was distracted.“Is there anything you need? Are you looking for something?”Roman looked up.“Yes, I'm sure that I carried my phone but now, I can't find it.”Roman knew that he would have gotten so many calls. He'd left the house very early and no one knew where he was.He didn't take any guard with him either.“Maybe it fell on the way."Of course, it did. With all those bullets raining on his head, why won't it fall out?It had been pure luck that he had escaped. He was almost at the minister's house when he noticed a car that he was sure he'd seen when he got off the highway.He'd rolled his eyes, not wanting to be involved in any of this today.“Can we do this in a week? I have something to do today.”What should he do now? He knew he couldn't avoid them.To make sure that he was ri

    EDENIT was already seven pm and I still couldn't find him. I was ready and so was everyone else but he was nowhere to be found.I'd called him and so had Quinn but he wasn't picking up his calls at all.“Edem, are you sure he didn't tell you where he was going?”I thought back to last night and scrolled through our conversation.“No, I don't remember him saying anything about going anywhere. After I told him about the officiating minister, that was where the conversation ended. Nothing more happened.”Quinn came back.“His phone is switched off.”Wonderful, just great. Roman was missing on no other day than our wedding day.Where could he be? Even if he was stuck in traffic, he could at least pick up his phone.Or maybe he truly wasn't interested in getting married to me.But then he would have just said it then when I brought it up. Why didn't he say anything? He had the choice to reject me last night but he didn't.”Eden, don't worry. We'll find him in time for the wedding.”Alicia

    EDENI woke up early that morning.Well, we didn't sleep after that.. we stayed up the entire night talking about everything we'd been through and it touched me.Eventually, I fell asleep on his shoulder and I didn't even know. I was sitting in his lap and I woke up on the bed.Alicia was standing above me .“Hey, wake up. Let's get you ready. Roman left the house really early this morning and I have to go back home to get a dress for myself. I mean, I can't wear this.”She had eye bags and her face was very dim. She has started crying again sometime during the night.”Alicia, sit down. We need to talk.”She was avoiding my eyes.“Eden, there's a lot to be done today. I mean, you don't even have a makeup artist or a hairstylist either. Your dress isn't here yet and the food isn't ready. There's a lot to be done.”I knew that all that wasn't truly her concern. She was just trying to avoid talking about me.“Alicia, please -”“Eden, there's no time. We need to get ready."I had to get

    EDENWhen I finally got into the house later that night, I couldn't sleep so I just stared out the window at the stary night.Alicia had fallen asleep while feeding the kids so I would break the news to her tomorrow.I'd had to tell Quinn what had happened.“Really?! Was that why you were staring into the dark?””Yes, she was standing there. I'm not going to die, Quinn. I'm going to be here with my kids.”She pulled me in for a hug and held me tightly.“I'm so happy, Eden. You don't know how terrible I felt when you told me that. How can you die without watching your kids grow up?"I was just happy that I hadn't rushed to tell Roman anything that was going on.He was clearly exhausted because he didn't even wake up when I entered the room and when I got in the bed. I was equally so tired because I had spent a lot of time getting things ready today.My body was tired but my mind was still awake and buzzing.I was going to get married tomorrow. I should have told Quinn that we should ju

    EDENWe got back home late that night.Mostly because we needed to pull ourselves so that we won't show that we've been crying.Everytime we finally stopped crying, Alicia started again and we started another whole process of consoling each other.“Please stop crying. I don't know what I'm going to do if you're like this.”She finally pulled herself together and we got into the car and drove back home.“Are you really not going to tell Roman?"“I don't have a plan to. I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to tell him. He will be shattered, Alicia.”She still wasn't fine with it but she didn't say anything else until we got home.Alicia went into the house to check in on Roman and the kids while I went to the back of the house to check in on what Quinn was doing.She was actually on a chair and table with her legs up while eating everything she brought from the restaurant.“You seem to be enjoying yourself.”My voice frightened her.“Sorry about that.”“You guys surely took your time..

    EDENWe'd ended up at a restaurant because the bar we wanted to go to was closed.Roman had already called me four times to ask Alicia questions about the twins and he sounded like he was about to lose it.“Let’s eat so much that we won't be able to walk again.”And that's what we did. I think we ordered everything in the menu and we basically had the chef at our call to make anything that we wanted.That was the first time I would be eating so much food in one day and it felt so good.“I don't think I can eat anymore. I'm so full.”Quinn had been the one to bring us here and now she was already full. Alicia's mood had changed and she wasn't speaking anymore.Quinn's phone rang and she stood up to answer it.“Alicia-”“What’s going on, Eden? And don't even tell me not to ask questions. Because you can't keep doing this. I'm your best friend. You have to be truthful.”What was sj to do at this point? I had no other choice than to tell her the truth.She deserved that much.“Balari came

    EDENAlicia did come over that evening.And we stayed in the room throughout.“It’s fine. I'll take care of the kids. You guys just do what girls do. Whatever it is that you do.”Roman took the twins and left us.“What in the world happened? Why did you faint?"I acted like I had no idea what was going on.“I mean, I don't know. I just felt weak and tired and next thing I know, I'm waking up in a hospital.”“Woah, that is crazy.. but you're fine right? I mean, yorie okay?"“Yes, I'm fine.”I needed to change the topic.“Hey, about Henry, I've spoken to Roman about it and he had no idea that Henry wasn't home. He said he was going to help track him down.”I actually hadn't spoken to Roman about it but I just needed to say something that would make her forget about the previous topic.“Thank you. I just hope we won't have to go through everything we went through back then. He'll surely come back.”Surely, he will. He's probably just busy.Speaking of Roman doing things, I still needed t

    EDENI'd come home the day after that. The doctor said that I was free and healthy to leave but I didn't feel free.“Why the long face? Aren't you happy to come home?”I turned to Roman who was driving.”Oh no, it's nothing like that. I'm just tired."What was the point of being happy when I knew what was coming? And I couldn't tell him. I didn't want him to feel responsible for it.Roman is very quick to blame himself and I didn't want him to. I should just die peacefully so that he would have the guts to move on from me.If I told him that it was because of him I was going to die, then I would mess things up.I recalled my last conversation with Balari.“Are you sure it's what you want, Eden? Men are not worth it. You can live with your kids and raise them in your own way. You don't have to do this.”But it seemed like the more we spoke about it, the more determined I was to do it.“I do, actually. I love Roman, I can't let him die for something he has no hand in.”“And you have a

The hospital.How did I end up here and why didn't I remember anything?Me being here meant that something had happened to me but for the life of me, I couldn't bring myself to. I felt so weak so I just relaxed in my bed.I didn't even have the strength to call for help and eventually, I slept.The next time I woke up, the sun was out thankfully and my eyes didn't feel as heavy as a boulder.My stomach was hurting badly, partly the fact that I hadn't eaten in a day and half. I needed food or else I might actually die this time around..I sat up in my bed, clutching my stomach tightly. I also needed to pee.
