Sandton Bay ~ City Of Deadly Sins.

Memories ~ His Love.

"Where are we going?" Saint questioned Kyro as he led both of them into the garden at the back of the house, which Saint often tended to if not devoted his life to. "You'll see when we get there." Kyro replied with a chuckle knowing how hopelessly impatient Saint was, infact the wolf had done a good job at not rushing it and not ruining the surprise. "Fine, but if this is you blindingly leading me to my death or a very embarrassing situation, I will have your balls." Saint grumbled making Kyro scoff, his wolf actually liked the idea of Saint having them by the balls, it went on to other fantasies that he would never dare say to the younger wolf, his sweetheart, one such fantasy was his wolf mounting Saint in wolf form ofcourse which was in itself awkward if he told him but silently he promised his wolf it would happen, for now. "Here we are, surprise." Kyro finally spoke taking away the blindfold and Saint gasped. "Kyro—oh my goddess this is beautiful, when did you even have time to set it all up?" Saint mumbled his question with a stunned expression still holding his voice and features.

"I had help ofcourse but it was mostly me, we've had dinner together, slept in the same bed and even showered together on many occasions but I never realized how much I never wanted that to change, how much I wanted you to stay my constant until Lincoln kissed you." Kyro grumbled darkly at the end making Saint raise his eyebrows in shock again, this was all new, he never thought Kyro would actually make the first move and if he didn't, it would mean he was waiting for his mate but now he had made the first move. "Kyro, are you sure, you know—" Saint tried to resist, he didn't want to be the reason why Kyro wouldn't be with his mate. "Sssh, we'll deal with it as it comes." Kyro argued with reassurance and Saint knew not to question him it was best for him, both of them.

"So now that's out of the way, Saint would you go on your very first date with me, I know it would take getting used to since I'm a bit ol—." Kyro was cut off before he ruined the mood with a kiss on his cheek. "I'd love to." Saint replied as he was led to where they would sit, fairy light surrounded them having been perched in the flowers, several rugs and cushions were placed on the ground to make it comfortable and a small serving table spread out with Saint's favourites was in the middle between them, it was simple and beautiful just like Kyro knew Saint to be and what he liked. "I don't think I will ever forget this night." Saint mumbled as he looked at Kyro with adoration, it would take time to build this forming relationship into something amazing but both of them knew they had already taken the first steps to make sure love would always be found between them.

Saint Drake Dante.

"Its obviously a boy, hes been clinging to Linc as always when he's pregnant, and its always been a boy." Meredith argued making me groan, this debate has been going on all morning, when I announced the news of my pregnancy, everyone was overjoyed. "You are all arguing about the gender, have you even thought about how Saint is feeling having kids so closely together, doesn't your mate give you rest." Deniz playfully jabbed making everyone silent for a moment and then they burst out laughing, from Lincoln's mate, the kids, my own mate, Meredith, basically the whole family. "Oh good one, Saint is the one who tempts his mate and hopes to not get pregnant, you know how both mom and dad wanted grandkids galore to uphold the family name and spoil, its nearly impossible that he wouldn't get pregnant." Lincoln asserted as I blushed into my cup, and everyone laughed again.

"Don't listen to them baby, and Linc is only jealous that we've caught up with his number." My Kyro, my mate, he was trying to make me feel better, and I did but it still made me feel embarrassed. "We are wolves sweetie, its normal." Lincolns mate whispered next to me and I appreciated her words so much, she understood. "Anyway are you done, we do have an opening you have to do and be present for, to happen." Senior reminded me as I swiveled in my chair to face my husband. "I'm good, let's go, I've postponed and put it off enough." I replied Senior as the girls ran to me in a fit of giggles. "Can we ride with you uncle Drakey?" The two girls who looked like my best friend asked and I couldn't resist those puppy dog eyes pleading with me. "Yeah you can." I answered making them cheer. "Go get your coats." I called out and they ran to do what they were told. "I don't know how you do it, I tell them the same thing and they do it at a snails pace, sometimes just outright refuse." The woman next to me complained as her kids came back dressed and ready to go. "I don't know myself, but I like it." I added making her chuckle, it was normal for me, kids just loved me hence why the whole weekend we had spent at the festival and at the water park the kids had been there with me, everywhere.

We all had gotten into the rental cars, Senior and Kyro now being overprotective like I expected had grabbed Meredith to pile us all into the same car along with the kids, I wasn't going to complain, it made things worse. The festival was at its peak, and currently there were no incidents, it made me wonder a little about what was going on but my mind became too preoccupied with other things that I shoved the thoughts aside and focused on the main reason why I had come back to Sandton Bay, the saint foundation resource centre for the underprivileged, it would open its doors today, although we had celebrated the building being complete already as a family, the community had to acknowledge it aswell which made me nervous, in Louisville the community had been responsive, it had benefitted a lot of people and when I got enough funding I sought to expand, which I had now, I hope they accepted help, any who needed it.

"Here we are, come my little chiquita and my baby boo." Meredith cood as she took Lincoln's youngest pup into her arms as Senior handed over Emory to her aswell, despite the tiny flaws in our relationships as family which are to be expected, we were doing great. "Ladies and gentleman, the man, no, the family that made this possible!" The director of the centre announced as he pointed toward my family, we all waved as he held out his hand for me to join him on the stage. "Good afternoon everyone, I really hadn't prepared a speech but I never lack a few words, as most of you know, the resource centre is aimed at helping those in our community who can't help themselves, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, religion, despite all that could be a hindrance to accessing help, that's its purpose and today I'm proud to say that the saint foundation has built a place like this here in Sandton Bay because when I needed help it wasn't there, and I vowed to make sure that none would go trough what I went through, never feel the pain of loss or betrayal, and make something of themselves." I stated looking out in the crowd, alpha Hunt, Renallo's father was looking at me with what I could only describe as pride, his sons aswell which brought a sense of peace to my mind, atleast now those the alphas had scarred could be healed, far from them.

"But, today isn't about that, we are here to open a safe haven to those who need it, so I would like to ask my husband to come up here and help me because without him, I wouldn't be anything I am today." I concluded emphasizing all of it, and it was true, Kyro was my life, he smiled at me and pecked my lips which earned coos and awws from the crowd, we both held the large pair of scissors and cut through the ribbon as everyone cheered and applauded. "You know I love you right." Kyro whispered next to me and I nodded meeting his eyes. "I do, and Im in love with you." I replied as he growled and pulled me to him for a kiss, it was slow, passionate and beautiful, Kyro still made my world spin with those kisses. As we parted a foreign yet vaguely familiar scent hit me and this time my mate didn't growl playfully, it was low and dangerous.

"Hello Saint." She spoke making every fibre of my being feel as if it was on fire and my wolf ready to rip her apart, she was alive, she was alive. "Come on, we have to get ready for the hunt, plus Emory is fussing." Deniz interupped our staring match pulling both my mate and I away from her, bless Deniz's soul, I never wanted to see her again, she was good as dead to me.

Time for the climax, tell me guys, how do you find the story so far, who will die next, If its not Saint exacting revenge, then who is?
