Just before I turned around, I thought about what this could mean for me so I decided to stop at the very last minute because something screamed at me to hold on. For now, I wasn't ready to face whoever or whatever it was that was behind me.

My mind went straight to the girls again and I knew that no matter what happened in my life, I would always remember them for doing a lot of good to me. It was one thing to give help to someone but when they impacted your life positively, one would never forget it, and that was the way I was feeling in that moment.

They had been more than friends to me, and more than sisters even. They would forever be a part of my life because they had given me hope to my life back when I thought that there was absolutely nothing to live for again.

I glanced at my wristwatch and if I was going by the time, I knew that they would have gotten home from work by now. They had both agreed to slash their work days so that one of them would get back home earlier t

    EiraI noticed that the woman seemed to know a lot about me and even though it had pissed me off at first, now it intrigued me because it just felt like there was another person who cared about me in my vicinity, someone that actually had my good interest at heart and I was quite happy about it."But how do you know so much about me?" I asked her curiously.I needed answers to my questions and I needed them as fast as possible. There were so many things that I wanted to learn and understand from her, and I had no doubt that she was the best person in this position to keep my hopes alive and let me know that at least, there was still light at the end of the tunnel. I wasn't asking for too much, that I knew. And I had a strong feeling that with this woman here, I would be able to get the answer to all of my questions."Walk with me," the woman said.Without hesitation, I followed her and with each step I took behind her, I had a feeling that I was getting closer and closer to finding ou

    Eira"Welcome to my humble abode," the woman said and smiled.I nodded because really, I didn't even know what to say and secondly, I was beyond tired. This journey had weighed me down and I knew that for as long as I lived, I would forever remember this incident and this woman who seemed to be my guardian angel.She took the load from me and I could tell that she had already sensed that I was beyond tired. There were so many things I wanted to do but I knew that I needed to get answers first before I did any of that."Thank you." I smiled."Please, hold on. Let me get you some water," she said.She rushed inside the dim cottage and after she did that, I heard some sounds coming from within and I knew that she was preparing to bring the water to me. Before long, she was out and in her hands was a plastic cup filled with water. She offered the cup to me, and the took it promptly with a word to thanks to her. The first sip I took almost made me feel like I was in heaven. Surprisingly, t

    EiraI didn't know what to feel or even say when I saw my picture plastered on the internet with those words written above it in bold red letters. If there was a thing I could tell about this whole thing, it was that the picture of me with the 'missing' caption was the girls' doing.I knew that they had done it for a good cause but still, I didn't like the idea of my picture all over the internet because I knew that Sebastian would surely be at the forefront of this and he would take this issue to the extreme. He wouldn't mind even hiring experts or private investigators to search for me and I didn't want him to see me. I didn't want to go back to that life, knowing fully well what he would do and how he would treat me. I wasn't ready for all of that at all, especially now that I had a precious child on the way.I knew that not only him but a lot of people would be looking for me, and I didn't even want to think about what would happen if they eventually found me. The whole thing woul

    EiraA few days later, as I sat down with the old woman I had been living with since that day, my heart warmed at the sight of her wrinkled but caring face. The old woman began to speak. Her voice was filled with wisdom and love, and it was in that particular moment that I realized that I didn't even know her name. So I made a mental note at the back of my mind to ask her what it was later on."Eira, my dear, I want you to know that I care deeply for you and the little life growing inside of you," she began. "And I want you to know that there are a few dos and don'ts that I believe will help to ensure that you have a healthy and joyful pregnancy."I nodded as my eyes shone with gratitude for the old woman's guidance. "Please, tell me about it," I said with a warm smile.The old woman leaned in closer, and her voice was gentle yet firm as she said, "First and foremost, you have to take good care of yourself, my dear. Rest when you need to, eat nutritious meals and stay hydrated. Your w

    EiraI sat in the small, dimly lit cottage, staring blankly at the old, weathered photo album that was resting on my lap. Earlier, the old woman had given me this so that I could have it to myself whenever I was bored and now, just staring at each memories on the pages of the album filled me with so much joy and happiness. The room was filled with the soft ticking of a grandfather clock which the old woman told me she had gotten from a good samaritan a long time ago, and the only source of light came from a fading sunset outside. It was a cozy and peaceful evening, yet an inexplicable craving gnawed at me, urging me to do something I couldn't quite understand.As I pondered on my strange craving, I just told myself that I didn't want to disturb her because I didn't think it was proper. She sat in her favorite armchair by the window, lost in her own world, as the soft hum of a knitting needle occasionally broke the silence. I had actually thought she would go straight to sleep and on

    EiraI got back inside the cottage and on getting there, I realized that she was back. I didn't know how or when she walked past me because the kitchen gave me a fairly decent view of anyone coming in or going out of the cottage. There was a small smile on her face and whatever it was, I had a feeling that she had done something great."I didn't know you were back," I said."Yes, I am. I saw you staring at the wood. You wanted to cook something?" she asked.I explained everything that had happened to me to her again and as I spoke, a sense of dejavu hit me all over again because this was the same thing we had done the previous day, and I had no idea if this was going to be something that would be reoccurring every day. I really didn't want it to be like that because I didn't want to give her unnecessary stress. As it stood, she was old and giving her an extra burden because of my weird cravings was something that didn't quite sit well with me and I didn't like it at all."All these t

    EiraWhen I walked outside the house, I heard a faint, melodic voice singing a really beautiful tune. I was intrigued, so I followed the sound until I reached a small clearing at the back of the house which was bathed in so much sunlight. There, I saw a little girl with golden curls who was dressed in a simple white gown. She couldn't have been more than nine or ten years old, yet her voice held a wisdom beyond her years.The moment she laid her eyes on me, her singing abruptly ceased, and her innocent blue eyes widened with surprise and curiosity. I, too, halted in my tracks as I gazed at her in wonder. "Hello," I said, trying to break the ice. "What's your name?"The girl hesitated as her fingers twisted the hem of her gown. "I'm… I'm just a traveler of the woods," she replied, her voice soft and delicate like a breeze rustling through the leaves.I raised an eyebrow because I had sensed a certain evasiveness in her response. "A traveler of the woods, you say? That's a mysterious a

    EiraThe moment she said what she said, all I wanted to do was chide her for disturbing my peace. This was the only free time I had to myself for the day, the only time I had to take a nap because I knew my unborn child needed it and here she was, disturbing me to go to some place with her.I couldn't hide the irritation on my face and I knew she saw it. I was about to lash out at her but I held my tongue because I knew that it wouldn't make any sense if I talked that way and besides, I didn't know where she was taking me to and if it was something that would be beneficial to me.At the moment, I knew that I had to give her the benefit of doubt because I had a feeling that she was only doing this to help me because she cared for me."Okay, Hana. So where are we going?" I asked her.It was very hard keeping my emotions and tone of voice in check but I knew that I had to try at least, for Aunt Meg's sake. I didn't want her to feel like I was rude and saucy when Hana was just trying to he

    Eira I don't know how long I've been sedated but the next time I awoke, it was evening and I was back to Sebastian's room. I cringed at the bright lights and winced as I tried to open my eyes. I was unaware of how long I had been unconscious. "Do you think she's alright?" I heard a voice that I wasn't sure I was able to recognize,say. I was now aware that I wasn't the only one in the room. I was finally able to get myself to open my eyes and I almost panicked when I saw Sebastian, his father and his brothers standing over me. Laura stood at the side. I frowned and pressed my hand against my head. Sebastian looked down at me worriedly. "Are you alright?" He said and I nodded slowly because I wasn't sure that I had enough energy to talk yet. "You gave us a fright back there. Now what's this I hear about my grandson missing?" Hunter said calmly. I was surprised that he was speaking to me. I was expecting him to hate me. His brothers didn't hesitate to express how they felt about me

    Eira I couldn't say that I was entirely ready to face the day. I wasn't sure I was. Thankfully Sebastian had moved my luggage into my room. Last night I had panicked and I had cried again and Sebastian had to spend the rest of the night assuring and consoling me until I drifted Into sleep once more. Now how was i to get over the anxiety that was clawing up at me. How was I supposed to face Sebastian's family? Especially when he was going to break the news to them that he had a son especially with a member of their rivaling pack. I didn't even think that I was going to see Sebastian's family. I didn't think I would be this nervous. I still felt really tense. I haven't even been able to eat anything all morning. I stared at the reflection in the mirror. The girl staring back at me seemed exhausted and terrified out of her mind. Any moment from now and she was going to spiral and have a panic attack. I felt the need to burst into tears but settled for breathing in and out to calm my r

    Eira I didn’t know how long it must have been now. I felt groggy as my eyes flickered open and I met an unfamiliar white ceiling. When I tried to move, my muscles protested slightly, meaning that I must have been unconscious for a very long time. I held my hand over my head. The pounding seemed to have reduced, the thudding in my head could pass for almost non-existent. Something about how groggy I felt gave me an inkling that I had been sedated. I felt drowsy and almost tempted to go back to sleep. I forced myself to keep my eyes open, my eyes traveled along the expanse of the grand bedroom, I looked down at the massive king size bed that I was in. It was half the size of my bed back at the inn. My eyes traveled to the vanity mirror, to the couch and then to the mini bar. I spotted the little door which gave me an idea that it might be a walk in closet. My brows furrowed into a frown as I looked at my surroundings. Where the hell was I ? And why wasn't I out there looking for my s

    Eira "You need to get it together, Eira. If you continue like this, you won't be able to make it to Sebastian." Laura chided as she stood at the doorway. It's been four days and I still haven't heard from Liam, from Sebastian. Two days since Laura arrived at the inn. She gathered some information that gave us a clue to where we Sebastian lived. And yet I couldn't even find it in me to take any action. With each day that passed by, I felt absolutely nothing but misery and pain. I bursted into another round of sobs. That's all I've been doing these days. I've been crying and letting my misery get the better of me. I've allowed myself to be shrouded in my self hate and regrets. I deserved every bit of what was happening to me. Maybe this was how Sebastian felt when I said those hurtful Words to him, perhaps karma was paying me back in my own coin and I couldn't do anything about it. "I don't know how to fix it Laura" I said, I whispered brokenly. I still laid in my bed lifeless. "You

    Eira It had been days since I told Sebastian to leave. Since I've last seen him. Liam was no longer bubbly and full of sunshine. He was reserved, preferred to be with only his teddy bear and Maybe I imagined but there was a certain look in his eyes that he regarded me with. Maybe he was disappointed. I was disappointed in myself too. Somehow, all I managed to do was just end up making things worse than they already were. Liam didn't even come down for dinner today. There was this empty look in his eyes each time I saw him, it held a sort of similarity to the hollow feeling that I felt in my chest. Sometimes when Liam thought I couldn't hear him, he would cry in his bedroom. I would cry too because I knew all I ever did now was cause the two men that I loved so much, pain. Things were just beginning to get better. Sebastian was willing to make an effort and I ruined it, because that's all I ever do. Ruin things. Tonight is a painful reminder of how empty I'm feeling, I can barely thi

    Eira The bed felt so warm and cozy. I stretched, feeling satisfied but at the same time tired. It took me a long minute to be able to register the grip Sebastian's arm had over my waist. We were both bare under the sheets. I wasn't able to move because he held me to himself in a iron clad grip. The thought of him not wanting me out of his sight, brought a very bright smile to my face. The corners of my lips lifted up in a wild smile and I couldn't stop admiring his sleeping face. I traced an idle hand over his face and intently admired him as we slept. We'd barely gotten enough sleep especially after our conversation yesterday night and by the time we had woken up again, we were more interested in one another's bodies than we were in having a conversation until we were tired and drifted into short sleep shortly. "You know it's rude to stare at people when you think they're not sleeping" he murmured sleepily, his voice was still heavy lidded with sleep. "How do you always end up ca

    Eira I spent the rest of the day in my bedroom. The house eventually became quiet and I knew that Sebastian had taken his son on a walk like Liam usually requested. So apparently I was left alone with my thoughts and I was left alone with my misery. I spent all day crying and eventually I became exhausted and I fell asleep. By the time I awoke, hours had rolled by. It was evening already. I wondered how long I had been asleep. Maybe Liam would be looking for me all day, who knows. I decided that it was time that I stopped wallowing in my misery and I had a shower. So I did, the hot water was something I was certain I needed. I spent long hours in the shower, lost in thought and eventually I came out of the bathroom and dressed in another set of comfortable clothes. I left my hair, hanging past my shoulders, leaving it to air dry and then I headed down the stairs into the kitchen where Sebastian was preparing dinner. Him and Liam were having a conversation, bickering to each other

    Eira I finally succeeded in falling into a restless sleep but by the time I woke up. I didn't feel any better. I only felt worse. The memories of our argument last night rushed through me and I couldn't seem to get it out of my head. Somehow, I ended up feeling even worse than before. I was almost tempted not to get out of bed but I also knew that I couldn't stay in here all day. If I did, Liam was going to come looking for me and he was going to ask me all sorts of questions. He was a child but he observed the most little details and you wouldn't even know. He was very inquisitive. Finally after long moments of deliberation, I finally decided that it would be a good idea to get out of bed. I quickly caught a glance of myself in the reflection in the mirror. I looked like a mess. I winced under my breath. I can't go outside looking like a mess, even though I was very tempted to. I settled for brushing my teeth and packing up my hair into a neater bun and then I headed down the sta

    Eira It was a nice walk back to the inn. Sebastian held Liam against his chest. He had exhausted all his energy playing with the squirrels and in the flower Field. Comfortable silence passed between us. Strangely, the air between us was lighter. There was no tension between us as we headed home. We arrived home in between twenty to thirty minutes. Sebastian headed up with Liam upstairs to his room to settle him in bed. Maybe when Liam was hungry later, Sebastian would make him dinner. But for now, we agreed not to wake him. I decided it would be a better idea to head to the kitchen and make dinner.I started to bring out the ingredients from the fridge. Maybe today, I would bake a pie, just because I haven't in a long time and because I was in a good mood. It took me a while before I was ready to register the footsteps behind me and the corners of my lips tilted up into a smile when I felt Sebastian lean into me wrapping his arms against me as I poured flour into a bowl. I relaxed
