Chapter 51 Finding His Way to Save HerNiklaus summoned Matt to a meeting, and as Matt entered, he exchanged a knowing look with Niklaus before taking a seat. "So, she's recalling memories," Matt stated, preempting Niklaus. Niklaus's eyes narrowed, intrigued. "You knew?" Matt nodded. "When you brought her out of the underworld, I saw what you saw. I've kept that secret all this time, not even Bella knows." He reminded Niklaus, "I'm the Seer, after all." Niklaus nodded, acknowledging Matt's unique gift. "That's precisely why I asked you here tonight.""I know," he said, his voice laced with a mix of sadness and resignation. "But I can't help you or her. I can only tell you what I have seen," he said, leaning forward, his eyes filled with a deep concern. "Does this end well?" Niklaus asked, his voice trembling with fear, terrified of the answer. Matt thought long and hard, his expression somber, before he finally responded. "I have seen two different outcomes... the first one is bad," h
Chapter 52 Back to The Swamps*David, I'm on my way, I need your help or we will lose Raven forever!* this made David snap to attention, his eyes widening in alarm, as he awaited Niklaus's arrival.He was pacing with growing unease when Niklaus arrived, his worry evident on his face. Niklaus briefed him on the situation, and what he needed to do. David listened intently, his concern for his mate and Queen intensifying with every word. He was ready to help in any way he could, his loyalty and devotion unwavering. She was his world, and he couldn't bear the thought of losing her!Two hours before they were set to port to the Swamps of New Orleans, Sam's helicopter was landing, Niklaus heard all the giggles coming from the landing pad, a contagious sound that heightened his anticipation. Then he spotted me, his heart skipping a beat, with a wicked smile on my face, the love of his life, making my way toward him, in a drop-dead sexy dress that left him breathless. His eyes roamed over eve
Chapter 53 It's Done!Kie jumped out of bed and quickly got dressed. That's when he realized that it was still dark outside."Sorry son, I need to do something before she wakes up." He was in a hurry and said he'd explain later.Kie contacted David and asked if he knew what was going on and David filled him in. Kie in a panic flew back to the palace. *Niklaus* *Come but quietly so as to not wake her* Niklaus said and then he saw him in tears.*Kie, I'm on my way home, be there in 10*, Niklaus said, his voice urgent and low. Kie jumped out of bed and quickly got dressed. That's when he realized that it was still dark outside, and a feeling of unease settled over him. "Sorry, Kieran, I need to do something before she wakes up," Niklaus said as he walked in, his voice tight with a sense of secrecy and haste. He was in a hurry and said he'd explain later, leaving Kie with more questions than answers. Kie contacted David and asked if he knew what was going on, and David filled him in o
Chapter 54 The GiftThe Halo deck shimmered to life, its holographic projections weaving a breathtaking tapestry of color and light. Niklaus and Kie had chosen a Starlit night: a view from Heaven. It was amazing it seemed like you were walking on thin air among the stars in the Heavens. Nilaus waved his hand and suddenly I was wearing the same black diamond studded gown that I wore when we first danced together in the Ballroom back home. I smiled at the details he had remembered and at Him. My eyes widened as I stepped farther into the deck, surrounded by my family, Loved ones, and friends. "Wow, this is amazing!" I said, my gaze drifting across the star-filled room.Niklaus smiled, his eyes shining with warmth. "Happy birthday, Sweetheart. We wanted to make this night unforgettable." my eyes were wide with wonder and sparkled with delight, her heart swelling with emotion. David, resplendent in a tailored tuxedo, greeted her with a charming smile. "Shall we begin the celebration?"
Chapter 55 A Day with WhisperI woke up to Whisper's tiny voice giggling and playfully tangling with my Hair, bringing a gentle smile to my face. David had brought over the small home that she lived in onboard Atlantis in Dad's old room. "Hi there little one, Good morning!" I said, delighted by her smile, and then she cast tiny sprinkles on me, making me giggle softly too. "You are magical?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me, and she shook her tiny head, yes. "Can you talk?" I asked, and she replied in a tiny sweet voice *Hi* that made me smile softly. *So you can minlink, but not speak out loud?* I asked, curious, and she explained, *I can hear you speak, but my voice is too tiny for your ears to hear.* Even her mindlink voice was tiny and sweet, filling me with a sense of wonder. *Oh ok, let's go get coffee and breakfast,* I said, feeling famished, and she flew to my shoulder, holding onto my hair with her tiny hands, tucking her wings down behind her. She was like a
Chapter 56 Family Fun TimeSam had been talking all week about the amazing time he had with us at the club, and how he knew the owner. Niklaus decided he wanted to take us back there, but this time with the whole gang, so we all boarded The Midnight Eclipse, eager for a night out. We docked at noon, just enough time for shopping and new looks.David and Luke had never been to a modern club before, so this would be a thrilling new experience for them. As we stepped out of the sleek stretch limo, Niklaus had rented, and into the bustling mall, our large group couldn't help but turn heads.

Chapter 57 The Holo DeckI had planned to spend the day with Abigail and Oliver. After my amazing birthday party, they wanted to know more about the Holo Deck. I had asked David if he'd prepare it for us. He was happy to be spending the day on adventures with us.Abigail and Oliver's eyes grew wide as we all stepped into the Holo Deck. "Whoa!" they exclaimed in unison, gazing around at the colorful console and the big, empty space.David smiled, kneeling down to their level. "Today, we're going on a treasure hunt! We'll sail the high seas, discover hidden riches, and meet swashbuckling pirates!"As he spoke, our clothing transformed to match the pirate adventure theme. Abigail and Oliver now wore miniature pirate vests and bandanas, while I sported a flowing white busty blouse with billowy sleeves and a red pirate skirt. David wore a white shirt with billowy sleeves, a captain's hat, black pants, and Pirate boots.The twins looked at each other, bouncing up and down. "Yay! Treasure!"
Chapter 58 Training AbiAs I lay in bed with Niklaus I told him about our day on the Holo Deck, he was laughing so hard "That's my Girl!" I slapped his arm smiling. "We need to take this seriously what if she gets mad at one of the kids at School?" I said."Guess they will learn quickly not to mess with her!" he was still laughing, I shook my head "You are incorrigible!" "I know love, It's just I'm so proud of her right now, and you're right she does need training, Bella's going to have her work cut out for her with this one!" he laughed again.I playfully rolled my eyes, smiling despite myself. "You're enjoying this way too much. But I have to admit, I'm proud of her too. She's got a no-nonsense approach, just like her father."Niklaus grinned, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "That she does. Niklaus's laughter slowly subsided, and he gazed at me with a more serious expression. "You're right, my love. We need to ensure Abigail learns to control her powers and understands the conseq
