At Last

Chapter Ten: By the Fireplace

Marcus covered Emma with a light blanket and made sure she was comfortable. He leaned down and kissed her forehead thank you Mia cara. He turned around and he lit a fire in the fireplace and pulled Didyme into his lap. I Have missed you my love. You don't know how many nights I sat here alone thinking of you. He said as he kissed her softly and caressed her face. I think this is a dream. No my dear warrior I am fully real and I don't intend to leave you anytime soon. I don't even know who killed me. Last thing I remember is me looking out from my window facing the garden then nothing."Didyme answered Marcus was silent for a moment debating on weather or not to tell her that her own brother that she had loved with all her heart had murdered her. He decided not to. No one knows who killed you we searched for centuries he replied he kissed her again well I can tell centuries have gone by what is this clothing attire you are wearing? The lights are strange. Marcus lightly laughed sit my beloved and I will tell you all that you had missed. For the next eight hours Marcus and Didyme sat in front of the fireplace while he explained the new world and all that has happened. Then he told her about Emma and why she was there. Also about how they were intimate. Didyme laughed when he told him that my love I was dead and you are a man with needs and anyone who doesn't think that woman isn't beautiful would be blind. I am glad she was sorta able to pull you out of your depression. You know we owe her so much now that she has united us. Didyme said as she leaned back against him. I know I don't know how I can ever repay her. Do you know if she has a mate? Didyme asked not that I ... Wait when I first found her she had a mate bond but I just never looked further into it. Maybe I could keep my eyes out for that. Didyme you will have to stay here till Emma's year is up I don't want anyone know that she can do this. Especially Aro who know what he will do with her. But I swore to present her to everyone when her year was up. He said I understand my love plus I am dead to everyone don't want anyone to have a heart attack she joked Marcus laughed and kissed her.

Emma opened her eyes slowly she could hear Marcus and another female voice she could hear the love in the voice of the woman then she heard Marcus laugh out loud he had a beautiful laugh she sat up and watched them. She felt a pain in her chest she looked towards the door as if someone was there behind it she rubbed her chest gradually the pain receded. What was that she thought to herself she shrugged it off thinking it was an effect of her gift.
A few moments later she cleared her throat to let them know that she was awake. Marcus looked over to her then put Didyme down they both walked over to her. How are you feeling Emma?" Marcus asked "fine just a little drained and thirsty. I can't believe I succeeded in bringing you back Didyme. Emma replied yes I was going to ask you about that Emma when we're you going to tell me that you have the power of life and death? Marcus asked honestly Marcus I just found out when I went to the library a dead bird fell from the rafters. I picked it up and I felt bad for it then my hands started to glow and I brought it back to life and flew away then it came back and landed in my hand. Then my hand glowed red and the bird went back to what it was before. Emma explained I practiced while you were outside. Then the idea came to me to try and bring Didyme back. I think it took a lot out of you. He handed her two bags of blood so she could restore her strength. Emma drank the blood then handed it back. She looked over at Didyme you know Marcus said you were beautiful but but he was wrong your gorgeous. Emma complimented Didyme blushed thank you Emma and thank you for uniting us. If there's anything we can do for you just ask. Didyme replied
For the next six and a half months Didyme and Emma got to know eachother and soon were inseparable
Marcus would help her with her gift in the library. Aro would watch from the second floor of the library hidden in the shadows. He longed to speak with her. To be around her. Marcus knew Aro was there. He knew his brother would find a way to see Emma before the year was up. He didn't mind as long as he kept his distance and he made that clear when Aro had gotten too close. As the months past Emma started to become restless she wanted to go out and explore and meet everyone else she felt like caged bird that is let out only for an hour before being put back in its cage. Didyme had started noticing that she was more fidgety. She would try to distract her to keep her mind busy until she had to sleep. Just two more days Emma then you will be free Didyme said as she slept peacefully.
