CELINE POV
My head is pounding, I barely slept last night I had an awful nightmare last night. Was it real? Or a figment of my imagination? I change into the clothes left for me on the chair, a pair of blue jeans and a purple shirt, my favorite color. Relief swims through me as I go downstairs, I’m home, I smile to myself I hope Steven is okay. I smell bacon and waffles downstairs; I haven’t had waffles in so long. I grab a small plate and go towards the table. I look up an see the guy from yesterday staring, I blush a bit. I wait till everyone leaves I need to find my kids and Steven, theirs to many people here to ask quietly without causing attention towards myself. I go outside and start walking around trying to find them when I finally see the twins and riley. I run towards them before I’m pushed down by a woman with a black ponytail. “what the hell do you think you’re doing running towards these kids?” I’m shocked to say the least I’m about to say something when riley and the twins run into my arms, I hold them tightly as a sing tear falls, I’m home. The lady puts her nose in the air and screeches “get away from her, you don’t know her!” I stand up “I’m their mom, they are my kids, who are you?” she glares at me, “I’m their caretaker, how stupid do you think I am their mom was taken six months.” I frown tears well in my eyes, suddenly the stranger an cass appear. “what the hell do you think your doing to Celine?!?!” The woman looks terrified “al-alpha?” His now towering over her, “I didn’t know, please!” is he a beast like my ex? Do I need to run again? I grab onto him “pl-please, she thought she was protecting them, don’t hurt her.” His eyes soften when he looks at me, “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to frighten you, Celine this is olive she watches over the orphaned children.” Orphaned? “what do you mean orphoned?” “where’s Steven?” They look at me, cass comes up next to me, “mom how much do you remember coming here?” none I have glitches of memories but nothing really. They all look at me sad even the twins. The guy with the green eyes, “I’m sorry Celine, Steven was killed.” A sob escapes me but not for myself, but for my kids, I loved Steven but I’m not in love with him anymore, I don’t think I will be able love anyone again.” “how long have I been out of it?” the green eye stranger looks at me solemnly, “two weeks, but cass and myself have told you this twice a day for a while.” Is that why I feel like this? “I see, was there a funeral, was I there?” They give me a sad smile, “there was, and you were their sort of.” I look at him confusingly how can I sort of be there, my heads starting to hurt again, “I’m sorry Celine, it was me Luna who went, I took over, you weren’t emotionally able to handle it.” I nod in a weird way I understand, and I’m okay. “where were my kids an Steven living?” “They were in a house on the edge of the territory but giving circumstances we built you a bigger house.” He smiles at me gently “I could take you and your kids their if you would like?” I look at him, can I trust him Luna? I feel her smile an see her nod her head in my mind. I nod my head “can I have your name first.” He gives me a beautiful smile before saying, “Marcus, Marcus black.”
