“I’m not a child you know,” Green chuckled as I fed her a slice of apple.“Well, Lilith did say you shouldn’t stress yourself.” I replied and she smirked.“I can do just fine with an apple,”I curled my right arm around her neck so she could lean on my shoulder as we sat up on the bed with the plates of fruit on my thighs.“Don’t be stubborn,” I hushed and she held my waist tighter.“Your babies are kicking a little more than usual today.” She whispered and I chuckled while I rubbed her belly gently. It always gave me a different kind of joy feeling their gentle pulse. “I have a feeling they might take after my stubbornness.”“Maybe,” I chuckled. “That’s not such a bad thing you know,” She frowned at me.“Since they’re taking your stubbornness, they’re surely taking after your courage, will power, and love,” I added and she smiled. “As for me, surely they’ll take after these irresistible charms of mine.”“You wish,” we both laughed and in this moment I was grateful. For the first time

I stared in despair as the morning sun graced my room and then my eyes darted to the chains on my wrist, attached to the bed even though it was comfy. How did I get here? I asked myself even though I clearly remembered how this mystery unfolded. When Zeus had teleported me, I had landed in a log house, where I met Simon as if he had been waiting for me to arrive all along.“You!” I had said angrily, planning to lurch at him but I became weak instantly. Too weak that I fell on my knees as he scoffed. Was it the effects of teleportation wearing on me? Or was it the slices of apple I ate? Either way, I collapsed and by the time I woke up, I was in the Hunters abode, chained ever since yesterday. I still recalled how his family had laughed and mocked me when they came here. The look of greed and thirst for blood on his Grandfather. At that point, I had realized I was betrayed. I had been fooled all along by my mate, the man I so dearly loved. He had come over last night but all I had for

With a tiny smile gracing my lips I stared at my parents grave, side by side with each other. For the first time in a while, I enjoyed the morning sun in the Hunter’s abode.“Mom, Dad,” I called. “I finally fulfilled your wish. I hope the both of you can finally rest.” I gently placed daffodils on their graves. The winds gently hushed past me and in a way it gave me a sense of closure. My smile deepened while Simon and Athena came to join me.“You really did it Zeus,” she mumbled. “It feels like a dream that it’s all over.” “Even if this is a dream, I want to be stuck in it.” Simon said.“I didn’t do this alone you know, we did this.” I answered and they smiled. “In most wars that happened over the centuries, the Hunter family had always been involved or the major cause. I guess the world can finally rest without them around.” I exhaled deeply.“So what’s going to happen now?” Athena asked me and I frowned.“You’re the leader of the Hunters family now. It’s your call, Zeus.” Simon add

“We should go to Paris sometime,” Zeus beamed. I stared at him in surprise while he handled the steering.I giggled.“I remember the first time we went there,”“You were so adamant!” We both laughed. “If you could have your way, you would have beaten me to pulp.”“Why did we even go there in the first place? Oh, we were in our mating cycle,” I mumbled while my mind wandered to that day,He laughed.“A lot had happened,”I hummed mischievously.“Like how you lost yourself in between my legs and marked me,” I teased and his eyes gleamed of so much passion and lust. I bet he remembered every detail too. I gently touched his mark on my neck and goodness it gave me so many exciting sparks.“I don’t regret any moment of it,”I laughed.“I don’t either,” I gently placed my hand on his thigh. He stared down at my hand, I could already see the bulge growing in his trousers.“Zeus, Focus.” I cautioned and he laughed.“When you talk about that memory and do this, what do you expect?” He lamented

“If anyone had told me that one day, Green, the mighty queen of the Vampires, who hated men is one day going to be all lovey dovey with a man, I wouldn’t have believed it.” Martha chirped with an obvious chuckle following suit.I blushed. She was holding Nolan in hand while I held Aubrey as we sat together on the couch. Zeus, Peter and Stephen were so focused playing pool at the other side of the living room, one would think they were strategizing for the most dangerous war ever. Men. But they were adorable regardless. Lilith on the other hand, was performing wonders in my kitchen and to be honest, my stomach couldn’t wait to be treated to her dish.“I’m happy for you Green, how far you’ve come.” Martha said.“I don’t think I could have done that without any of you.” I replied and she heaved a light sigh.“Yeah, it’s been a hell of a ride,” we both chuckled.“So how have you been coping as the new Queen?” I asked while she played with Nolan’s fingers.“To be honest, I think I need a b
