Emelia POV (10 years later)
Today is Grayson's 10 birthday. I have been blessed with another 2 babies. Twins to be exact. One boy one girl. We haven't picked out names yet but we still have a couple of days left before we need to decide.
Mason and Ann got married 6 years ago and had a baby girl themselves 4years ago. Everyone has come together for Grayson's birthday.
I finally told my parents about Derric and Grayson and to say they were not happy was an understatement. They were furious. They have completely written me off after I told them but I don't care actually. I have my family with me.
"Honey can you stop for a minute. You are pregnant and can't climb on ladders."
Emelia POV"So we are still leaving in a week?" Ann asks without even looking up from my piles of clothes. She is helping me pack all my stuff for university."Yes, we are. We need to get there and settle in. I want to be ready once university start.""Well, all I know is we are going to all the parties on and off-campus. Its time you become a proper woman and lose that V card of yours." Ann winks at me.I feel my cheeks turn red. "Will you lower your voice? If my parents hear you, I won't even be allowed to go to university. And you know by now that isn't my top priority right now. I just want to have fun without my parent being there to dictate my every move""I know it's just, I am not a virgin anymore and believe me you will love it once the pain
Emelia POV (1 week later)Moving day and I can't wait. This last week has been one crying fest. Our last day of school was on Friday. While I hated school, I'm going to miss so many of my friends."Ann, let me just check my list one more time than we will be able to go.""Emelia, I'm going to take that list and burn it. We have been over that list 3 times. We have everything. Anything we missed we can buy once we are in Pennsylvania."I know Ann has a point but the list is calming me down. I'm nervous. Lots of new friends to make. What if the college kids don't like me? Wait, I'm jumping the gun. Let's first get to the university."Ann I'm just going to say bye to my parents. I know we still have a 10-hour drive.""Make it quick. Please."I run into the house. I hear my parents in the kitchen.
Emelia POVI jump into the shower and wash my hair. I have about an hour to get ready for work. We finished unpacking at 12. I thought we had more stuff. I get out of the shower and start putting on my makeup.Idecided to go with only light makeup that brings out the jade in my eyes.Ann left to familiarize herself with the town, so we don't have to stop strangers on the street for directions.Keegan and I have been chatting since this morning. I can see we will become good friends. He is quite handsome with his black hair and blue eyes. He is funny and caring. Maybe in the future, we can become more, but first, we need to get to know each other. Ann already thinks Keegan has a crush on me, but it's too soon to tell.I walk to the closet and put on my blue and green flor
Keegan PovMy name is Keegan Davies. My parents died when I was 12 years old and now I live with my uncle. Uncle Rave Williams was my grandfather, on my mother’s side’s, twin brother. He is the only family I have left. He was married a long time ago but his wife and child died during labor so he never remarried. That was 40 years ago. I work in his restaurant and he told me that I will be the owner, once he retires but first I need to get my business degree from the university.I started my shift 2 hours ago and tonight we
Emelia POVI have been awake for the past hour getting ready for my date with Keegan. I decided to dress casually in my black ripped jeans, sneakers, and a tank top with minimal makeup.Ionly have a few minutes until Keegan arrives.Ihear a knock on the door, so I leave the bathroom to open it for Keegan."Wow, you look beautiful. Are you ready to leave?""Yes, I just need to go get my purse and tell Ann I'm leaving. I'll be right back."I walk towards my closet to get my purse and a jacket."Ann I'm leaving. I don't know what time I'm going to be back home.""Have fun. I want details once yo
Emelia POVI've woken from my sleep thanks to Ann that is jumping on my bed."Come on sleepy head time to wake up. Man, you sleep like the dead. Wake up please we need to leave, so we can do some shopping before you need to leave for work.""I'm up I promise. So did you make a list?""Yes miss sleepy head. I made the list and before you ask I will stop at star bucks on the way to get us some coffee.""Thank you let me get dressed." It takes me 30min to brush my teeth comb my hair and get dressed. We leave and stop at star bucks. I wait in the car so Ann can run in otherwise we won't finish today. We drive towards furniture Mecca. I know we need beds and kitchenware."Good morning ladies how can I help you.""Well, we are here to shop. We have a whole apartment to decorate to we will tell what we need and you just need to deliver it at the apartment. I
Emelia POVI'm so happy the weekend is finally here. We are almost done with the painting of the walls. All that is left is the rooms. Ann and I are already at the apartment. We have been busy from 6am this morning. Yesterday was so fun. I don't know how we have gotten this far since we had about 3 paint wars. Hopefully, we are done by Sunday. Monday the semester starts then we will be really busy."What time does lover boy arrive" Ann decided that will be Keegan's new nickname. Why I don't really now. I don't think he is in love with me. It is still early days. I check my watch to see what time it is and I see it's already 8:30."Keegan will be here at 9am. And please don't call him that once he is here. He said that he will bring a friend along to help us move the furniture. Maybe one of us should do a breakfast run. Neither of us has had any food this morning.""Good call I will go and
Emelia POVMonday morning and the weekend is over. Luckily we can both focus on the start of the semester. I haven't spoken to Keegan since Saturday and maybe that is for the best. I need to get my head wrapped around the fact that it's only been a week, and he already asked me out.Currently, I'm waiting in the car on Ann. She is going to make us late on the first day. I hate being late. I love learning while Ann would probably party her life away. That's how it's always been. Ann trying to bring me out of my shell and me, trying to get Ann to be more serious."Don't tell me you're still thinking about lover boy. You know what you did what's the best for both of you. It is way too early to think of dating if you only know each other for a week. Go on a few more dates and then decide if you

Derric POVOur whole honeymoon went by too fast. This whole week was a week was full of discovery for both of us. I just wished I knew beforehand that she is afraid of water. I spend the whole week making up for my mistake.I have been up since 4 am. I went through my emails just checking that everything is still fine at home. I really wish we can stay here but it is time we returned back to reality. I hear Emelia stir next to me. This whole week I did try not to wake her up. I didn't want to land on my ass again."Morning handsome. What time is it?""Good morning beautiful. It's 7 am. We need to get up and get ready our plane leaves in 5 hours."
Emelia POVI woke up well-rested. I kind of miss my son. This is the first time I have been away from him this long. I hope Skylar and Sam are coping with him. I look to my left and see Derric is still peacefully sleeping. I turn towards him and see some of his hair has fallen onto his face. I run my hand's through his hair. He grabs my hand and kisses my wrist."Morning love. How did you sleep?" Derric turns towards me."I actually slept like a log. I can't remember when was the last time I slept so soundly. O no wait I can. Just before Grayson was born.""You miss him don't you?""Is it that obvious?" I ask him
Derric POVThe mating ritual is completed now. I know I used a condom but Emelia just gave birth. I don't think she will be quite impressed with me if she gets pregnant again so soon. Emelia fell asleep last night but I was too excited to fall asleep. I look at the clock on the wall. We have an hour before the plane leaves. we have a 16-hour flight in front of us.I tried to wake up Emelia. I land on the floor. I didn't anticipate that she will kick me off the bed. Emelia sits up and looks at me. She starts laughing st me."Derric I am so sorry. It was just reflexes." She says between her laugh. I just look up at her making a mental note never to wake her up again."It is oka
Emelia POVWe are currently at the reception. The dining hall is looking like a winter wonderland. There are blue Fairy lights hanging from the ceilings. I feel like I am transported. I saw everything yesterday but looking at it now that the sun has set I feel like crying of happiness. There are white roses on the table as centerpieces.We have been at the reception for a few hours now. We did the first dance and mow we are listening to the speeches. I kind of zoned out now since Ann already made her speech.30 minutes later and the speeches are finally done. We are making our rounds and talking to the guests. Derric leans over and whispers in my ear."We need to leave wifey.
Derric POVI haven't seen Emelia for the whole week. I have been really busy with the peace negotiations. I know it is necessary. I want my pups to grow up in a world full of peace where they won't be hunted for being different. I want them to be able to travel the world. Emelia will join me in our mission once we come back from our honeymoon.I decided to take Emelia to Greek islands for our honeymoon but it is a surprise for her. A whole week of sand and sun. I just hope she likes it.I arrived last night after Emelia went to bed. My mother did not want me near Emelia. She believes in the whole 'The groom is not allowed to see the bride before the wedding'. I think it is bullshit.
Emelia POVI haven't seen Derric this week. He has traveled to the council to tell them about our plan to try and restore peace in the world. I just hope he is on time for our wedding tomorrow. Ann and Mason arrived late last night. I am glad she could make it. I would probably postpone the wedding if Ann couldn't come.I am currently sitting on my bed burping Grayson. Mason, Ann, Payton, and Skylar are all sitting with me in my room."Do you think he will make it?" Ann asks me while taking Grayson from me."I don't think my son will miss his own wedding. He phoned me this morning and told me that he will arrive early tomorrow."
Emelia POV (Three months later)I am almost at my due date. I can't wait for my son to be born. Yes, my son. We found out last month the gender of the baby. I honestly cannot wait. I feel like I swallowed a bus. My feet hurt all the time. I have to pee almost every 5 minutes.We have been traveling across the country asking every supernatural pack to help us in the peace treaty. Most of them have agreed. I don't really want to show anyone that I am an angel and a descended from the moon goddess. I know it will place me in danger. Well more danger than I am already in.Derric jolts awake. His eyes gloss over and I know someone is mind linking him."Babe, what is wrong?"
Emelia POVWhen Derric marked me it felt so good for a while but then the pain started. The pain was unbearable. I tried to stay awake but the darkness took over and I let it hoping the pain will go away.I wake up in a meadow with birds chirping around me. How the hell did I end up here? I hear water so I walk towards it. I see a woman standing at the river. When she turned around she looks just like me? What the hell I guess I am dreaming."Hello dear. I am the moon goddess. Welcome to my realm.""What am I doing here? Am I dead?""No dear. Your body has sent you here so you can change without you being in pain
