"Mary"
"Maryyy, where are you"
"Mar...."

Their she sat, by her window looking out. You could see the pain in her eyes. It killed me truly, she was my best friend and it hurts me that she still is hurting.

"Mary " I said calmly

"Mmhh" without looking at me still fixated outside

"I wanted you to know that I am going to check in on Greer and Kenna, I've had a vision of them mentioning the Valois to the children. And I thought maybe I could get there in time before they do."

She still doesn't move

"Mary, are you listening" I questioned

"Yes, Sebastian. You want to check up on, on....." she cut off

"The children" I stated

"Ohh yes, the children" she stood up and smiled

"Well of course the children, ahaha. Well you must be on your way, you can't have them know the truth, can you" she stated walking toward me smiling.

That was a fake smile

That was a fake laugh

But what wasn't fake was the pain in her eyes.

"Mary, I just wanted to let you know I'm off to see them"

"Well then, be off. Take someone if you need and be careful Bash" she says as your smile vanishes.

"Okay Mary, I will be back as soon as possible." I hugged her

"God speed, Sebastian. She hugs tightly back.

~Present Time~

I stand still confused.

This little girl stating that IM her father. It's can't be Kenna told me it was the child of another.

But could she be mine. She looks a lot like me. Maybe she could.

Anger fills me. How could she not tell me. How could she lie to me. We were married, she left me.

Yet I'm still so in love with her.

I stare at her. My daughter?

She stares back with eager eyes and a grand smile.

"Well.. well I'm Sebastian" I smile

"I'm Rose" she gives a warm smile

"I know." I stare at Kenna

"Kenna, uuhm may I have a word with you" I state

"Yes" she follows me outside

"Kenna, is she my child and do not lie to me" I stare her in the eyes

She looks down and I see tears roll down her eyes

"Is she" I push harder the question

Through sniffles and her tears I hear a yes.

"Why would you keep her from me"

She stops and looks up with a tear stained face.

"Why, why! Well one Catherine and your mother hate me. Two,  I don't know I was a Lady to the Queen of Scots, thirdly I was a mistress to one of the Past Kings of France. And lastly I was you wife, the wife of the Kings Bastard. That's why!" She yells at me angrily

"And from any of those I was a target even long before I knew I was. Look at Ayhlee, Lola, Francis, Clarissa, Coleen and more than I choose to believe." She spat

She stops yelling, just tears rolling down down her cheeks.

I take a deep breath and I just grabbed her into a warm embrace.
I missed her.

I loved her.

I still do.

"I missed you, Kenna" I whisper

"I missed you too, Bash" she says breathlessly.

I stopped and looked at her into her eyes. Her beautiful eyes.

"Can I have a chance with my daughter?" I questioned

"Sure" she smiles back at me.

She started to head inside,

"Oh, also I have one more question?"
I stated.

"Okay, what is it?" She says as she turns to face me.

"Um, really, Ash?" I laughed

She turns red and laughs.

"Yeah, really" she said as she ran inside.

God I missed her.

Now I have a daughter, maybe I had a bright future ahead of me.
