BlueArtemis's words echo in my head. He looked at me like he didn’t recognize me. “…this could all be temporary. It’s very rare for someone to complete lose all their memories.” I hear the doctor say to Rhea.“There isn’t anything we can do?” She asks bit I stop listening just as the doctor answers her. My eyes are fixed on Artemis through the window to his room. If he does t remember me will he remember Lilly? I jump when someone rest their hand on my shoulder and I turn to see Rhea behind me.“The doctor suggested something we can try to help Artemis remember.”“What?” I'll do anything.” “He wants to set up an ultrasound machine and show Artemis the babies.” I consider it and know I’ll do anything no matter how strange to help my husband remember me.“Lets do it.” I say confidently. It doesn’t take long for the nurses to get everything set up. Artemis’s room has a recliner seat for guests to sit in so I lay down on that and they lean m

BlueI have three babies. It’s a strange thing to accept when for so long the babies had been inside me. I mean I knew they would come out at some point but it was almost like it didn’t feel real until now. Three healthy babies and a lifetime of responsibility to look forward to. Oh gosh, how am I going to do this? Three babies and Lilly? She has needs too! How am I going to be able to be a good mom with so much going on? When will I even sleep? “Blue?” Artemis’s voice forces me to take in a breath. “Yeah?” I give him a quick glance but not long enough for him to see the expression on my face. “Are you okay?” He asks and as much as I want to battle these feelings alone, I don’t want to lie. “I’m scared.” I admit. “What if I can’t do this?” “If anyone could do this it’s you. All the bad things you have been through proves how strong you are, and you won’t be alone. You have me and my sisters. All of us are going to be here.” Artemis wraps his free arm aro

BlueAfter Tet spoke with Artemis and knocked me around a bit he covered my eyes with something and used tape on my wrists, feet and mouth. I’m not sure how long we drive for but the bumps we go over send shocks of pain from my incision throughout my body. Tet’s phone rings several times before he answers and although I can’t hear what the person on the other line is saying, they’re yelling loud enough that I can hear the muffled sound of their voice. They sound pissed. “I did what I had to! It’s not like you were doing anything to fix this mess.” He yells before going silent again. “Please you’re glad I’m taking care of the bitch. I told you I can handle this, so stop questioning my methods. Arty would give me anything I ask for to get this girl back. Now you work on your end of things and stop worrying about me.” I don’t hear him talk anymore for several minutes so I’m guessing his phone call is over. Who was he talking to? If I had to guess it was probably his

(TW: mentions of blood as the result of complications related to reproductive surgery)ArtemisTet tries to hit me again, but seeing Blue lying there on the ground makes me see red and I push my brother hard. He isn’t ready for the move and stumbles off me. I can hear the others coming our way, but I need to make sure he doesn’t run. “Tet, stay down.” I warn him while pointing my gun at him. “I don’t want to shoot you, but I will.” He laughs. “Sure, you do brother. I know how much you hated how dad favored me all these years. He barely acknowledged you. Poor little Artemis always wanting daddy’s approval.” I’m the one who laughs now. “I don’t give a shit about dad’s approval, and I have never been jealous of you. All I wanted was to never be part of the shit company named after us. He wouldn’t let me go! I was happy to let you become the next blood sucker in this family.” He scowls at me but doesn’t say another word. The others come in and one of them gra

BlueThe first few weeks home with the triplets is chaos. Lilly is such a sweet girl and even though she needs a lot of help with things she hasn’t complained once having to share our time. Artemis has made everything so much easier by just being here and helping wherever it’s needed. He was joking about the personal chief either. I mean when does he ever not mean these things? I should know that by now. He also did have a whole medical room set up in the house. There are plans to expand the house even more thanks to all the plans he has. Athena found a house down the street from us and has been so happy with her decision to adopt. She’s an amazing mother and it’s been great having her so close by. Rhea, not wanting to be left out also bought a house on our street and has been stopping by with her kids almost everyday much to Artemis’s displeasure. He’s gotten a lot better with having his sisters around but he’s still his grumpy self with them. Now they just find it fu
