A few days later...
Lauren's POV
I am sitting in my office, back in my home in Florida, as I stare at Zayn, Liam, Dinah, and Normani who are sitting on the couches.
"I am just glad you are okay, Lauren," Normani says.
"Yes, we all are. But you are insane, Lauren. If the General finds out it was you killing them, he will retaliate back and it will be worse not only for us but for every slave in the South," Zayn speaks.
"There is no way the General will know it was me. I killed mainly all of them and Ca-"
The door opens and Camila steps in, "My love-" She stops herself when she sees the four on the couches. "Sorry I did not know you had company," She says.
"It is okay. What is wrong?" I ask.
"It is fine. Nothing more important than this. Just some estate problems," Camila says.
"Okay. Discuss it with Mr. Somerhalder for now, he handles the estate problems alongside me. I will be out in a few, my love," I said.
"Okay," Camila nods.
Before she can leave, I grab her hand and pull her back towards me. "You do not have to be secretive about our love in front of them," I whisper.
"I understand, my love," Camila says lowly.
I smile and press a tender kiss to her lips and Camila melts into me, wrapping her arms around my neck.
"Please, do not take long. We have not had time for ourselves," Camila speaks softly once I pull away.
"I will convince these four to let me go early," I whisper.
Camila pecks my lips before leaving my office, closing the door behind her.
"That was adorable," Normani says.
"I do not think it was more than us, sweetheart," Dinah says.
"The well-respected, rich woman falls in love with the Aztec tribe Princess," Liam says.
"When did this happen that you did not tell us? We are your closest friends, Lauren," Zayn says.
"We kissed when we were at David's estate. Before we went to kill the Major. But I think she was the most beautiful woman I have ever set my eyes on when I first saw her," I said.
"In her tribe armor, cloak, bow and arrow, and everything?" Zayn asks.
"With everything," I said.
"You know, out of everyone, you deserve to be happy," Zayn says.
"Thank you, Zayn," I said.
"I suppose we should leave you. Your love awaits you," Dinah stands up.
"Let us meet tomorrow. So we can still discuss these things," I said.
"We will be here," Liam stands up.
Zayn and Liam exit my office as Dinah helps Normani stand up.
"You know, I do not see you as brutal. You just finally have something to fight for even though you are taking revenge for your family," Normani says.
"Thank you, Normani," I said.
Dinah and Normani leave my office as I follow behind them.
Outside, Zayn and Liam get into their carriages as Normani and Dinah get into the blonde's carriage.
I wave at them, and from inside their carriages, they wave back as the carriages make their way out of my estate grounds.
I enter my estate and after grabbing a book from my library, I make my way down to Camila's bedroom.
"I know that she is not probably here but... I will wait for her," I said.
I open her bedroom door and sit down on the settee in her room.
Camila's POV
"I will make sure these foals are well fed and healthy so they are in good condition when we sell them," Sir Ian says.
"Great. I think that is everything," I said.
"Yeah," Sir Ian nods.
I make my way inside the estate and down to my room, feeling exhausted from being outside in the blazing sun of Florida.
I close the door behind me and look up, getting startled when I see Lauren sitting on the settee in my room.
"You startled me," I said.
"I am sorry, my love," Lauren stands up, setting her book down.
I walk to be in front of her as I wrap my arms around her neck and press our lips together.
Lauren wraps her arms around my waist as she backs us up until we fall onto my bed.
We crawl up on my bed until my head is resting on my pillows.
"I missed you," Lauren mumbles.
"I did too. So much," I smile.
Lauren's knee slips in between my thighs and presses it against my center, making me moan.
"Are you certain your family would not interrupt us?" Lauren asks.
"Once they see that both you and I are missing, they will get the idea that we are together. The love between partners is an important thing in the tribe. If there is no love, how can they lead a tribe," I said.
"I am starting to think you are not talking about your tribe," Lauren says.
"And what do you think I am talking about?" I ask.
"An actual family," Lauren says.
"I would love to have a family with you," I said.
"Would you?" Lauren smiles.
"Yeah, my mom showed me how important kids are. How important it is that you and your partner love each other," I said.
"My parents taught me the same thing," Lauren says.
"I want to be with you for the rest of my living days," I said.
"I do too," Lauren says.
She leans down and plants kisses all over my neck as I move my head to the side to give her more space.
Colonel Aquila's POV
"Sir, what are you planning to do?" I ask.
"We are going to go down there where she lives and end this once and for all," The General says.
"Sir, she is determined to destroy us. You saw how she tortured the Brigadier General when we went to retrieve the body," I said.
"And I am determined to take revenge for my soldiers she killed," The General says.
I nod and stand up straighter. "I am behind you always, General," I said.
"Good. Now gather up our men. She will not see this coming that she will not have aid from the Union," The General says.
