Isla’s POV

“Marcus has always been scared of the dark!” Diane said staring my way. We were still seated in the living room and we were talking about our childhood actually Marcus, Ben and Diane were. I just sat there listening to them with a smile on my face.

“No I wasn’t!” Marcus replied placing his hands on my shoulder. “And besides I was 10.”

“10!” Ben shot him a look. “You know kids stop being afraid when they are like 7.”

“My growth sprout is different!” Marcus said in a pissed tone.

“Okay kids! Enough with the embarrassing stories ” Diane’s mom walked in, she had an apron tied around her waist and was wearing a bright smile.

“Mom we were just getting to the best part!” Diane added. “Remember captain Momo!”

Her mom raised a brow and I looked at her, “how could I forget Marcus and how you guys scared him with the captain Momo story then pretended to be captain Momo at night.”

Well, not too well if I had to be sincere with myself and this was because of Dario.Dario has been so busy, that I hardly see him. We barely have breakfast together and when he arrives home he’s either too tired or having a headache. Even when I woke up this morning I wasn’t surprised that he wasn’t by side. I was already used to his disappearance but I was also becoming worried about him.It was normal for Dario to be occupied but a part of me felt like there was more to this, and the only way to find was talking to him.I glanced at the my phone which was beside me, and I realized it was very early I was sure Dario was still in the mansion actually I hoped he would be.

    Isla’s POV“You see, what I told was right you. Dario is busy.” Nima cut into my thoughts and I furrowed my brow placing my phone in my pocket.“You’ve no single idea Nima!” I replied in a loud tone. “This message doesn’t justify anything.”“Dario clearly stated that he’s busy!”“Clearly!” I scoffed. “This message feels wrong so wrong, it’s like it’s coming from someone else.”“Isla, you need to calm down and relax. You’re not well and instead of you resting you’re busy—““Save it!” I snapped. “I know what I am feeling is right, I hate the fact that you’re trying to turn things around and make me feel like I’m going crazy.”“I’m not doing that Isla, I just want you to take it easy.” I shut Nima out afterwards as I stepped inside the house. I went into the room and once I got there I ended up going through the documents the secretary had sent to me. It was quite difficult going through each and every document but I managed to do so. Along the line, I ended up falling asleep, by the

    Isla’s POV“I’ve to inform you your highness that Isla’s case is very delicate.” ‘Delicate!’ I repeated inwardly. I was worried at this point, and several negative thoughts flew in and out of my mind. I turned to look at Dario who had a shocking look on his face, but he managed to conceal it when he noticed that my eyes were on him, flashing me soft look.Dario’s soft look seemed to do nothing to me. I guessed he had noticed it too, because he spoke up immediately.“Why don’t you inform Isla what the delicate issue is. I’m sure she is curious about it too” Dario arched a brow staring at me, and I swallowed hard. I didn’t know how to react to this but part of me was willing to hear, I knew whatever it was. I placed my attention back on my surroundings, and I realized that the doctor had moved closer to us. He adjusted the glasses on his face, and his eyes moved swiftly from Dario then back to me.Waiting for the doctor to speak, felt like an eternity probably this was because of my

I made my way down the hallway afterwards, and as I walked my mind kept on revisiting the doctor’s words. “She’s pregnant.”Those words were like wrecking balls smashing into my whole mind. In the fit, of the moment I slammed my fist into wall letting out a scream which seemed to stop mid-way as I managed to stop myself, clasping my hands over my mouth.I continued slamming my hands into the wall, and the pain which shot through my veins couldn’t be compared to the pain I felt within.

I passed the winded road, which ended up leading me down a narrow path.There was no building in sight, just trees that stood tall moving along with the blowing wind.“Isla, please go back home!” Nima’s voice came out in a panic tone. “ you remember what happened the last time you left the house.”“Nima!” I called out. “Just stop this, you’re making it seem like I can’t handle being on my own.”“With the past experiences that occurred I don’t think you can.”“Seriously!” I exclaimed. “Let me just remind you that everything that has happened to me is not because of me be

    Five years later. I woke up to the sound of my children's excited voices, their laughter cascading through the air like a warm, familiar embrace. Pulling my eyes open, I gradually focused on my daughter. She was standing really close to me, with her hands crossed behind her back "Mommy, come downstairs! Quick!" she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. Her hands, which were crossed behind her back, moved forward to touch mine. "Mommy, come on! Quick!" she exclaimed, with a higher pitched tone. I tried to understand my daughter’s sudden need for me to go downstairs. I glanced at the clock on my bedside, and I realized it was just eight in the morning. It was quite early. Very early. I sighed, turning to look at Selene who seemed to have given up. When she saw I wasn’t budging she let go of my hands and headed out of the room. Then she returned few seconds later, with a pretty determined face. “Mom, this is really important.” Not long after she said those words ,

I lay in bed after I had managed to put my daughter to bed, dozing off. Suddenly, a cry pierced the silence, a sound that jolted me awake. My eyes flew open, my heart pounding, and without hesitation, I swung my legs over the side of the bed, my bare feet meeting the cool wooden floor as I rushed towards the nursery. Dario, who had heard the sound of our daughter’s cry, rolled out of bed. He walked behind me, his steps slower than mine.I pushed open the nursery door when I got there.

Actually, Dario had done all the work; I just stood there watching him since he wouldn’t let me help.Gliding past the entrance, I felt a surge of warmth fills me at each step. I moved to the crib, which was adorned with soft blankets and stuffed animals. Then I reached for my baby, cradling her gently in my arms."Hush

    Dario’s POVI walked into the mansion with Isla by my side. Finally, the battle was over.I stared at her as those thoughts settled in my mind. The victorious look in her eyes was not so different from mine. She must have noticed that I was staring at her because she looked my way, and I noticed as tears began to full from her eyes.“We did it!” She said with her lips curved up. “We finally did it!”“You did it!” I said moving close to her. I wrapped my hands around her body, planting a kiss on her forehead. The joy in my heart couldn’t be contained, and right now the only thought on my mind was finally seeing my child—my daughter.My hands which were on Isla uncurled and my eyes swerved in the opposite direction staring at Jonas.“Inform the men to take care of the bodies and clean everywhere up.” Jonas nodded at my reply, after that was said I turned to look at Isla.“Let’s go see our child.” Together, we made our way up the stairs, crossing the bodies that were at the staircase.

    Isla’s POV The battle unfolded before my eyes, as I ran upstairs. I watched as more of the attackers stepped into the mansion walls with their weapons in their hands. It seemed that Dario had called upon on his men from the human base because I noticed that among those attackers were men far more armed and ready to take down whoever dared to stand in their way.As I ascended up the stairs the sounds of body dropping to the ground filled my ears. A sign the men were already taking action.“Do you think it’s going to work?” Nima’s voice spilled into my mind as I continued to walk.“What is?” I questioned, trying to grasp what she was trying to say.“The plan you have to weaken the cursed blood.”“I know it will. The fact that this idea crawled into my mind means it will work and if it doesn’t we would find another way.”Nima didn’t say any words after and I focused on the hallway ahead of me. I arrived in front of the room where my grandmother was staying with Diane and my baby. I tr

The feeling was so strong and I knew what it meant.“I think the baby is coming.” I said.“Isla, are you sure?” Diane asked.“Yes.” I screamed. “It is time.”My eyes which was once on Diane landed on my grandma who looked shocked. With a raised tone she spoke up, running towards the hallway to get a hold of the guards.“We need to get to the hospital now!” I could hear my grandmother say. “We can’t waste anytime.”Diane moved close to me she help
