TERESA POV

“Talking about rest, I think I might get some sleep,” Scarlett says as she lays back on the bed.

“Okay, I am going to go and run these tests. I will come to check on you later.”

I wait until her breathing evens out, showing that she has indeed fallen asleep. I get up and leave the room. As I head back to the hospital, I go over the different possibilities that could be causing what she is going through. Garlic can do a bit of damage to a vampire but it is not strong enough unless given in really large amounts to cause a vampire to go into hibernation, but then the vampire knows what is going on and it wouldn't affect her wolf.

Then there was wolfsbane, but that would affect her wolf more than her vampire. There are only a few things that affect both species. The main one is silver. So for this to be affecting both her wolf and vampire I think someone gave her some silver and I wouldn’t be surprised if it was in the blood bags she was given, it would be the only way she woul

    SCARLETT POVI wake up, stretch and look around. Phoenix isn’t back from patrol yet, so I decide to go and find Teresa to see if she had an answer for me yet. I leave the room and bump into Teresa and Sebastian, which surprises me as Phoenix was running patrol with him.“Hi, guys! Seb, where is Nix? Wasn’t he doing patrol with you?”“Um... Yeah, we had patrol… But Nix… He um…!”“It's okay Seb, you don’t need to lie for him or say anything. I get it. Um... Teresa, what were my results?”“Well, it has come back that you are pregnant…”“Thank you. I thought I was.. and the other thing?”“It looks like you have been poisoned with silver… Because your wolf and vampire were weak to start with, it has put them into hibernation, but…”“But what? Teresa?”“Scarlett! With the amount of silver that is in your blood, it will make you a permanent human within the week and there is a possibility that it could cause you to have a miscarriage...”“How?? No, that’s okay. I know how! Thank you, Teresa.

    PHOENIX POV“Sorry Butterfly, but I have patrol and so does Seb, so it seemed like the best time to get her to give you a check-up.”I give her a quick kiss and walk out the door. Sebastian smiles and follows.After seeing those dark bruises on her from our sparring session, we just had. I have also noticed some smaller bruises appear after she has finished her sessions with the young females. I know something isn’t right, and it hasn’t been since we bought her home. I think that Alpha did something to her other than touch her, but I just don’t know what. Hopefully, Teresa can help work it out, and then we can get the real Scarlett back.“Nix, what’s going on? We don’t have patrol. Why did you lie to Scar?”“I needed Terri to give her a check over and I knew she wouldn’t be honest if I was in the room.”I stop in the kitchen and sit at the counter before continuing,“I can barely sense her wolf or her vampire anymore. The mate bond seems to be there, but it is extremely weak. I don’t

    PHOENIX POV I enter the ring and into position, Nathaniel starts off, and I block and counter with my own.“So, what did you want to know?”“Your gift. You have control of it, don’t you?”“Yes, I mastered control over it when I was young,”“Can you tell me about the connections between Scarlett and me?”“I could, but why should I?”I throw a few more combos at him with both punches and kicks as he blocks most of them.“Okay, I admit I have been less than good to your sister lately, but I want to make it up to her, please!”“Okay,”He steps back a little and looks at me. He then has this look of confusion across his face.“Other than a weak blood bond, you do not have a connection with Scarlett.”From his expression, I didn’t think I would like that answer.“What about you? What’s your connection like with her?”“I.. I.. Nooo,” he yells as he runs out of the ring. I follow close behind as he goes straight to Dominic's office.“Father!! Father!! Don’t move!!”“What??

    CHARLOTTE POVI hear a lot of commotion going on around the castle, and I know most of it is to do with Scarlett. I have been watching her return to her duties as the vampire princess, but there is something about her that has changed. To everyone else, she is the same happy female, but I can see she is withdrawn and Phoenix is the same. They are perfect for each other. I have grown up with them together, and seeing them like this is just horrible and wrong.She looks at him with longing, like she used to when we were younger, knowing he was hers but was too young to be with him. He has just shut himself off completely, even when he looks at her, that love and longing that used to be in his eyes all the time is gone and when I see them touch, she flinches and he... Well, I don't know.I wanted to talk to my father about what is going on, but when I get to his office; I stop just outside the door as I hear voices,"Okay, that is enough, everyone. Nix! Nat!

    CHARLOTTE POV We exit the diner and head over to a group of trees nearby. I take off my clothes again and pass them to Scarlett, who puts them in her backpack while I shift. I shake out my fur once the shift is completed and move up to Scarlett. She kneels down and runs her fingers through my fur while she gives me a tight hug, which is like only a quarter of what it should be. Harmony and I try our sister connection. “Scar?? Can you hear us?”We pull back from Scarlett’s hug and look at her while we tilt our head to the side. She smiles weakly at us before saying,“I’m sorry Harmony, but I can’t hear you. Without Ruth, I don’t have the ability to talk to you. Come on, sis, let's head back to the castle.”Scarlett stands up and walks over to the motorbike that was missing from the garage. She gets on, starts it and then takes off in the direction of the castle. I jump into a jog and catch up to her. Even though I said to race, I keep my pace with her. Once we are back, we enter the

    PHOENIX POV“I know you feel betrayed, but maybe you really need to talk to Father about it, find out how he felt and handled it when it happened to mother. Have you ever thought that she might feel betrayed by you as well? Betrayed by you when you put your thing inside that other female...”I take a quick step toward Charlotte as my anger rose from her last comment and Soren fought to take over, but then I think about what she actually said. I look at Charlotte and see the fear of me in her eyes. I would never hurt anyone in the Royal family. They are my family, the only family I have. I sigh and take a few steps back.“I’m Sorry Charlotte, I didn’t mean to scare you.”“Don’t worry about it, I hit a nerve, and the reaction was a natural one, but you need to consider what I said, she feels just as betrayed as you do, go and talk to father, find out how he handled it. Go!” I turn away from her and go to find Dominic.I was expecting him to be with Scarlett but instead, I find him in th

    SCARLETT POVOver the next few weeks, I start to wonder what has gotten into Phoenix as he returns to being the loving male I have grown up with. I am tempted to ask him, but I don't want him to go back to how he was, how he was cold and seemed to only touch me because he had to. I wonder who had a word to him, who made him see what he was doing to both of us. Nah, I need to know."Nix?""Yes Butterfly""Who have you been talking to? Up until I started the transfusion, you have been acting like I was poison to you.""The day you came back with Charlotte and started the transfusion, I had a lecture from Charlotte, Sebastian, your father and even Soren reminding me of what I really feel for you and that I should be treating you better. Once you are back on your feet, I am going to sweep you off of them again."I smile at his comment. Maybe I now have something to look forward to once I am not connected to the blood bags anymore. Maybe he will even show me if he really still loves me. I

    CHARLOTTE POVScarlett passes me a small box wrapped in a rose-coloured ribbon. I open the box to find a beautiful hairpin made up of blood-red and gold stones. She lifts her wrist, showing me the birthday gift Nathaniel gave her. It means this piece goes with the bracelet she has and the amulet that Nathaniel has. I smile, lean over, and give her a kiss. I also give Phoenix a quick kiss as well, only to hear a low growl from Scarlett.I smile and laugh. "Don't worry, sis, he is all yours!"I leave their room and head to mine, thinking that it was good to hear her growl. Maybe that means that Ruth might surface soon. Once I get to my room, I shower and I get ready for the party. When I am almost ready, there is a light knock on the door."May I come in?""Of course, Aunt Jose. What can I do for you?""I don't only come to get you to do things for me...""Sorry, Aunt Jose, but you do, especially if it is to do with the other children.""I'm sorry Charlotte!

    SCARLETT POVIt took me a long time to come to terms with Phoenix’s death, but if it wasn’t for H and Phoenix’s twins, I would have followed him. As I stand watching my three-year-old daughters Opal and River sleep H comes up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist and my big stomach, placing soft butterfly kisses along the back of my shoulder and up my neck until he gets to my ear and whispers “My princess, what are you thinking about? You are sending waves of sadness along the mate bond” I sigh and lean back into him as I answer, “I was just thinking about when I gave birth to these two and that I wouldn’t have continued on if you weren’t there. You never let me give up and you continued to love me even after we found out that Ruth didn’t survive the severing of the mate bond and that Cara had gone into permanent hibernation, making me a human.” “Scarlett, you were and are more to

Everyone has come in at some stage. The King and Queen both come in at random times, both together and on their own, to check and sit with her.Doc Teresa comes in to make sure she is fine medically, giving her fluids and blood so we don't lose her that way, but she is not sure when she will or if she will ever wake up. Doc also confirmed to the King and Queen that Scarlett was indeed pregnant and carrying Phoenix's twins, my vampire didn't like that she was but we agreed that until we could get her to love us more, they would probably be the only thing that will keep her from following him.Tina comes in and sits with her the most. I think she has something she wants to share with her. Tina and Theodore had just left after spending an hour sitting next to her bed. I had just

    ( This is the start of the Alternative ending, and I will warn you that this chapter starts just over halfway through chapter 140, so yes there is some repeat but what is to follow is what would have happened if H and Wrath had decided not to accept Scarletts offer and had in fact carried out exactly what Scarlett was seeing in her vision. You do not need to read the next 3 chapters, including this one, as the series continues on from chapter 141.)H POVAs soon as Scarlett gets to the edge of the ring of people that are now watching us, I see the moment Phoenix's attention shifts off of me and he looks at her. I take advantage and punch him hard in the ribs, using my vampire for the first time in this fight.I break about four and fracture another two. I also make two cuts on his neck with my second hit, only just nicking his main artery. I could have killed him then, but he still has a little fight in him and I want to see what Scarlett will do now she i

    SCARLETT POV I have been with H for seven months and while he had us travelling, he finally introduced me to his vampire Wrath, I managed to convince them to allow me to keep my babies, well at least have him not kill them before they are born. H even allowed me to go with him to one of the towns where I found two beautiful butterfly bracelets. They will expand as they get older so they can always wear them, I had an O engraved on one and an R engraved on the other I found out the day of the fight, the day I gave everything up to save Phoenix’s life, that I was pregnant again. I had just come from seeing Teresa. I was having twin daughters, and I was on my way to tell Phoenix the good news when I heard the commotion of the fight. My labour started not that long ago and H has gone to get the Doctor. No one in this clan knows who I am. They only know what H or Wrath has told them. As far as they know, we are mated lovers, but the babies aren’t his, as I was attacked just before our ma

    H POVJust after I move my hand to her throat, I see a couple of the guards take a few steps closer to us, so I pull her tighter to me so I can whisper into her ear"Tell them all to back off and allow us to pass or I will not honour our deal and I will throw you and kill him.""Stand down and allow us to leave!" she says quietlyI knew Mike had to be here somewhere; he like me, had become Phoenix and Scarlett's personal guards, so where ever they went we went too. He takes a couple more steps forward as he says,"But your highness we can't allow him to leave with you...""You can and you must... Now please stand down!"Scarlett surprises me that she answered him without me telling her to. I watch as Mike nods to Scarlett and then to the other guards standing near us. They all step back. I lean my lips onto her shoulder and smile as I whisper,"Good girl, time to go!"I then move us slowly over to the edge of the woods, stop and move the arm I have around her waist, reach around to my

    H POV It takes the sedative maker a week to get back to me saying my order will be arriving any day, that he had managed to make a serum that contained silver and wouldn't kill or knock out either a vampire or werewolf, it would just separate the vampire or werewolf from the human. The other good part about it is that it doesn't need to be injected. I can mix it with either his food, drink or even his blood and he wouldn't know the difference. The only problem I have at the moment is how to get just Phoenix to have it and not include Scarlett. A couple of days after I received the silver serum, an opportunity opened up for me to use it. I put half of the silver serum into a water bottle that was exactly the same as Phoenix's. I met up with Phoenix in the training field. I discreetly swap out his bottle and then enjoy a good sparring match with him. By the time we have finished, we are both breathing heavily and exhausted. I scull my water and I watch with a small smile as Phoenix

I decide to tell him everything and hopefully, it will give him some time to prepare himself for it. I go to our room, but it is empty. I smile and tap into Ruth's sense of smell and take a deep breath.I follow his scent back to Father's office and then over to Theodore's; I knock lightly on the door and smile as Tina looks up from some of Theodore's paperwork."So he has you doing the things he doesn't like doing, does he?""How do you know he doesn't like doing paperwork?""Because he used to get me to do it when I was old enough to read, write and understand what he needed done. Father was the same." I laugh and she joins me."So, what can I do for you?""Have you seen Nix?""Yeah, he came past a while ago, took something out of a drawer and then left...""Oh, okay, do you know where he was g

    PHOENIX POVI felt the moment Scarlett carefully moved out of our bed, Soren was asleep, but I was not. I don't know what got into him. He has never been like that with our butterfly. He didn't even notice the change in her towards the end before he fell asleep, but I did. There is something very important and very serious that she is not telling us.Once she leaves the room, I get up, get dressed, and follow her. It doesn't surprise me when we end up at Dominic's office, as it was where she said she was going before Soren wanted her. I must remember to ask him what that was about once he wakes up again. I watch as Scarlett enters Dominic's office and wait for her to close the door. I move slowly and quietly to the door and just listen.I would give my life if I had to... Scarlett, what's this about?""I.. I..
