Ella’s POV
I don’t know how much time passes as silence fills the entire place.
Their baby.
I was their baby.
I was staring at the floor while my head was completely frozen in shock, unable to process or believe this piece of information that was dropped on me like a thunderstorm.
How the hell was I their baby? They never told me they had a baby after Kate. How could they let me be taken from them? How could they just let me go without searching for me?
My tears start falling automatically as several things begin to make sense. How cold and uncaring my father always was towards me. How he never treated me like his own kid or gave me any real attention. It’s because he wasn’t my real father. How he always got angry with me whenever I asked him about my mother, and wouldn’t show me her picture or tell me anything about her. I only got a name, Sara.
I laugh inwardly at the irony. Well, it least the name wasn
Klaus’s POV After Ella fled from the house, Joseph and Sara started sobbing so hard. My heart was aching for all of them. “She was right about everything. We can never make it up to her or erase what happened” said Joseph in a broken tone. He was still kneeling on the ground where Ella was sitting. “She hates us” he said sadly. Sara shook her head as she spoke for the first time since we came here. “She doesn’t hate us, she was just too hurt, too angry, she had to let it all out. The trauma and the truth that was revealed were overwhelming her so much, she had to speak everything trapped inside of her to be able to tolerate and stand the realization that everything she had lost was supposed to be her right from birth. Even if we ended up being blamed for forgetting her and for everything she was deprived from. I just hope she doesn’t end up hurting herself” She came over and sat next to me as she held my face tenderly with both of her hands. “Klaus, please don’t leave her alone
Ella’s POV We end up having a super late dinner. As the four of us already skipped lunch and the usual dinner time, we were all starving at that point. We kept our conversation light and short, without diving into anymore drama. We were exposed to enough drama to last us for a year. As soon as dinner was over, I couldn’t keep myself from yawning constantly. I was super tired and exhausted from all the emotional turmoil that I put my body through today. Sara notices my yawns and speaks softly to me “It’s getting late, you should go lay down and rest. It was a very rough day on all of us” I nod my head in agreement as we all get up from the table. Klaus comes over to my side and holds my hand instinctively. We say good night to them and head back towards our home, hand in hand. I couldn’t get enough of his touch, it had a magical calming effect on me, I will probably never get enough of it. When we walk into the bedroom, I notice that everything was put back in its place, and al
Ella’s POV Klaus and Joseph head for their offices and I hang back with Sara before she heads to work too. I had ten minutes before my studying session with Jake, so I decided to open the subject with Sara. “What’s on your mind Ella?” asks Sara curiously. She could always read me like an open book. I wondered if I was the only one she could read so easily, or she had a special gift of reading people. “I don’t know if Klaus talked to you about this, but he and I have real feelings for each other. We’ve had them well before we got married, but we were both scared of our own feelings” I said awkwardly. She speaks tenderly “I know, not just because Klaus confirmed it last night, but because Joseph and I suspected it from the beginning” I suppress my snort as I wonder to myself. How come everyone but us, was so sure that we had feelings for each other? She laughs under her breath as she says “We probably figured it out before you two even admitted it to yourselves. We didn’t say any
Ella’s POV “I thought you were in a meeting with Joseph” I said in wonder. “I found myself unable to stop thinking about you the whole day, I couldn’t wait for the damn meeting to end so I could come spend the rest of my day with you. I missed you even though we were apart for a few hours only” he said fondly. I grinned at his lovely words as I replied “I missed you too so much. You never left my thoughts all day” I came over to him and hugged him, placing my head on my new favorite place, his chest. He tightened his embrace around me passionately. After a minute, we pulled away as he turned his expression into a professional one and said “Ok, let’s see what you’ve got” We trained together for an hour and a half, and I was always on the defensive side. He was simply a magnificent fighter. Graceful, fast, and strong. I found myself constantly getting distracted by his beauty and skillful movements during our fights, that I fail to block his attacks and end up falling down or get
Klaus’s POV “If I doze off behind the wheel and hit a tree, I will haunt your ass for eternity Klaus. Why couldn’t we just spend the night and travel back to the head pack first thing in the morning?” asked Joseph while stifling a yawn. We were on our way back home from visiting our last pack. It was almost midnight and the path we were driving through was barely visible in the poorly lit, uncemented dirt road. “It’s just an hour and a half drive Joseph, I’ll keep you awake don’t worry” I said firmly. “That still doesn’t answer my question. What’s the rush?” he asked curiously. I sighed heavily. The rush was because of Ella. If I thought the three days before our wedding were torturous, I was so wrong. I wasn’t as attached to her then as I was now. I wanted to return back to the head pack since the first night. Hell, I wanted to return the second we drove past the border. I have no idea how I’m going to do this again next time. She was an addiction I never wanted to sober up fr
Ella’s POV He was so shocked by my unexpected condition, it almost felt like I asked him to kill someone for me. I stifled a chuckle from escaping me at his reaction, and repeated myself in case he doubted what he heard me say. “Kiss me Klaus… here” I put my index finger on my lips. “I want to taste the feel of your lips on mine again. I keep thinking about how our kiss at the wedding ceremony made my insides melt, and I want more than just a brief, short kiss, I want the whole…” He cut me off as his lips came crashing down on mine, silencing me in the best way anyone could silence another person. And it was no brief short kiss at all. He kissed me with a hunger that coursed through my whole body, with a passion that made me explode; literally, with desire. The kiss made me realize that I was missing out on a very important, life sustaining, supplement, his lips. I couldn’t contain my moan from escaping as the emotions I felt were too much to suppress inside me. That one kiss w
6 years Later It’s been six years since my life actually began. Six wonderful years full of love, happiness, safety, and bliss with the closest people to my heart sharing it with me. Six years where neither me, or anyone of my family was harmed or put in danger. My life was perfect in every way. The day dreams I used to have back at my old pack, on my thin cots, trying desperately to distract myself from my throbbing and aching body, finally came true. I had the best parents in this whole world. Even I didn’t envision them to be as perfect as they actually are. I was the luckiest girl to marry this man that I am sleeping next to right now. He was perfect in my eyes. It’s ironic, considering that our first few encounters always filled me with a mix of fear and hatred towards him. If someone back then could possibly see the future and informed me that I will end up marrying alpha Klaus and become so happy with him, I would’ve hi

Klaus’s POV “Waffles, nana, please” We were all gathered for breakfast like we do everyday. Me, Ella, Joseph, Sara, and our precious twins, MJ and Melanie. MJ was pointing at the plate of waffles, cutely asking his grandmother for the last piece left. There would have been war between me and Sara over who would get the last piece, a few years ago. But, because it was her little spoiled grandson asking for it now, she happily obliged. The twins had a special place in all of our hearts. MJ looked like Ella with his golden bouncy curls and big brown eyes, while Melanie had my hazel eye color and my ash blond hair. As Sara handed him the last piece with a kiss on his chubby cheek, we all noticed at the same time a yellow note left on the waffles plate. It was hidden by the last piece that Sara gave to MJ. It said “Save The Last Piece For Me Please!! -Baby #3” My heart fluttered excitedly as I reread the note again and again. I looked up at Ella and saw her staring at me lovingly w
