FREYA POVIt's been two weeks since I found out that I was pregnant, two weeks since Lydia gave us her shocking news. Today, Lydia would have to identify her rapist. She also gets to choose their punishment. Even if Kiran would love nothing more than to kill them, it was still her decision. As for my pregnancy? Ace was as doting as ever, he never lets me overwork myself or do anything. I feel so lazy sometimes. But one thought that has hunted me so far was Kye. I didn't know his next move and it scared me. When was he going to come? What was he going to do? I thought of this everyday but most of the time I decided to push it at the back of my mind. My baby mattered more to me. And stressing about it, would stress me which would in turn affect my baby.I woke up this morning with some pains on my back. Not too much though, just a tiny bit of pain. Ace wasn't next to me. I stood up to go look for him when he entered through the door instead."Wait. Do not stand up, I don't want you st
LYDIA POVI sat on the bed waiting for Kiran to come back. I'm sure it has not been that long since I left him but it felt like hours. I was missing him already. I cannot believe what was I was thinking. I never thought a day would come when I would yearn for someone this much, want to be with someone this much. I smiled at my smitteness.After a very long time I was happy and maybe I would say content. I laid down on the bed and closed my eyes for a while. I heard the door open and sat up."You're back" I said."Yes, I just needed some air." He said. I frowned. He looked at me, walked over and held my hand."Not like that. I used up a lot of power. Air helps me concentrate better." He said and my face softened. "Lydia, I do not feel guilty or disturbed by what I did, so please do not feel that way." He said."Okay." I said. His body had traces of blood on it. He must feel uncomfortable."Do you want to have a bath?" I asked."Yes, very much. I'll just go draw a bath." He said and I
FREYA POVI looked at the two men that were captured outside the gates. The guards knelt them down before us. As soon as we were given the information, Ace and I went downstairs. He did not want me to come with him but I can be stubborn when I want to be.They looked at us; they had fear in their eyes because they knew that this may be the end of the road for them. But we weren't that stupid. They would be useful to us and we were going to get them to tell us everything that they knew."I know my brother sent you, so there is no need to ask you that." Ace said."Do not worry. We are not going to kill you." He said to them and one of them visibly relaxed. The other didn't seem to care."Yet..." Ace added."Please do not kill us. We will tell you all we know." One of them said."Shut up, you traitor. Where is your loyalty?" The other one said."Loyalty? We are about to die. If you want to die, go ahead! but you will not drag me with you." The fearful one said."If we get out of here ali
FREYA POVI was awake watching Ace as he slept peacefully beside me. After our conversation, he went to bed. He fell asleep on my lap before I laid him next to me, with much effort. He was extremely heavy. I stood up to get some fresh air. I couldn't sleep yet and I thought maybe stretching my legs would work. I went outside and sat on a garden chair. I closed my eyes trying to take in the serene environment. It was soothing."You cannot sleep as well?" I heard a voice say. I turned around to see who it was. It was Lydia. She smiled at me."Can I sit down next to you?" She asked. I nodded and smiled at her. She sat down beside me."The stars look beautiful tonight. Do they not? She asked."Yes, they do." I said. She looked down at my stomach."How are you doing? And the babies of course." She asked."They have not been much trouble, everything seems to be going well for now. They give me some trouble once in a while but nothing I cannot handle." I said "Everything will be fine." She
LYDIA POVI opened my eyes slowly. The light outside blinding me was enough to wake me up. Kiran was beside me sleeping soundly, I smiled when I looked at him. He looked so handsome in the sunlight. Last night was amazing. I have no regrets whatsoever, I would do it all over again. He turned towards me and opened his eyes slowly. His golden eyes stared at me. We looked at each other for what felt like minutes before he finally spoke."How was your night? Did you sleep well?" He asked."I slept wonderfully. It was the best sleep I have ever had." I said."Me too." He said. He looked like he wanted to say something but he looked nervous. It was cute. We took a very huge step last night. It's normal for him to be nervous. I would be lying if I said I was not as well."Did you like it?" He asked. Was that a joke?"Are you sure that was your first time?" I whispered. He laughed."I'm serious. It was…" I said and sighed."I can't even describe it. That's how wonderful it was. I liked it ve
FREYA POVEverywhere had smoke around it. It was pungent; I couldn't breathe properly. I opened my eyes and I saw the pack again. It was on fire. It was the same dream. I saw Kye and Ace again but this time it was different. They were both standing opposite each other and I could hear them speak. "Give her back, Kye." Ace said. Kye smiled."I've been waiting so long for this moment. The day I finally take everything away from you, brother. Just like you took it all away from me." Kye said."You brought your fate upon yourself. I took nothing from you." Ace said."If you want her back, fight me for her. To the death." Kye said. I shook my head and then I woke up. My body drenched with sweat. Ace sat up and held my shoulder. "Are you okay?" He asked."I had another vision. I'm so confused about what I saw Ace." I said to him looking scared."Calm down, Freya." He said. I felt a sharp pain in my belly. Ace looked worried."Are you alright?" He asked."Yeah, it's just a sting." I said
FREYA POVLydia and I were at the kitchen. I sat down on a chair and watched her as she prepared my drink with a smile on her face. I smiled at her."You both look really happy. It makes me feel good." I said."Thank you, Freya." She said turning to look at me."Cherish every moment you have with him. Don't take it for granted. You never know what might happen." I said remembering my vision. She looked at me."Is everything alright, Freya?" She asked. I looked at her and smiled."I'm good." I said smiling."I think you're lying." She said, sitting down beside me and holding my hand."But If you don't want to share, it's alright. I don't mind." She said."I just found something disturbing that I cannot prevent." I said."Are you and Ace okay?" She asked. I smiled."We are more than okay. We're very okay." I said happily. She nodded."I'm happy about that. Whatever it is, I hope you figure out how to fix it." She said."Thank you, Lydia." I said and she smiled."Now, back to making your
FREYA POV"This will help you cover your bump. He will not be able to notice anything. Your pregnancy is stil a bit early." Isabelle told me. I collected the cloth from her."Thank you, Isabelle. I appreciate it." I said. She nodded. She wanted to leave when I stopped her."Isabelle, wait!" I said. She turned towards me."Why did you not tell me sooner. Do you not consider me a friend?" She asked."Of course, I do Isabelle." I said to her."I did not want to drag you into all of this. You are one of my very good friends and I appreciate you. So much." I said."Sometimes, I would prefer you were shielded from all of this. You have a lot to worry about. I didn't want to add to your list." I said. She sighed and held my hand."You are not adding to my worries, Freya. Life has been more exciting with you as my friend." She said."And Friends share each others burdens with each other. Would you have liked it if I had hidden this type of information from you?" She asked."No, I would not."
