My Twisted Fate (Book #2 of The Mystery of Shadowlyn)

14 Home

The next morning when I awoke, I was incredibly sore to where I could barely get up but I managed to atleast sit up from laying and when I looked over, I seen a sleeping Ren beside me and it looks so adorable. Watching him shift and open his sleepy eyes was just one of the best things ever. "Well good morning, now who's the one watching who?" he smiled nad brought me back down to snuggle me.

"It's hard not to watch an adorable sleeping face dear and good morning to you too. Also, I was planning on getting up to at least stretch but I guess that's a nope now."

Chuckling he kissed my head "How are you feeling?"

"Good, can't really get up at the moment but good."

"My bad, give it a few minutes and you should be okay. Today, I'm taking you on one of those picnics I have food already packed since you passed out last night right after we got done and it's going to be here but there is a place I want to show you. I'm sure Darmin told you about it since we agreed to bring you here last night to begin with. Since everything is over, I thought you deserved to see its beauty without having to be worried about Klaus being around the corner."

"I can't wait but since you're alpha or king now, don't you have duties to attend to? You know, royal stuff?"

He let out a chuckle "No, not right now. We should be back there by 3 this afternoon but other than that we have all the time to go there."

"Then let's get going." With that we got our clothes on and with his help he got me to stand on my feet and grabbed the food and I followed him out the door. It still hurt to walk but I was excited to see what lies ahead. It took only about five minutes to get to the place and when we entered it was beautiful. There was a waterfall that led to a beautiful lake with a little stream separating to parts of the meadow. This is only something I've seen in pictures other people have created through paint or the digital way. There were so many flowers and that's where we had our picnic. As we ate, I still couldn't get over the amount of beauty this place held. The time seemed to pass to quickly as we needed to start heading back to the castle. I'm dreading seeing all the damage but I also want to see how many survived. As we were walking back to the castle we were holding hands and I looked up at him "Hey Ren?"

"Hmm?"

"Can we come back whenever we have the chance or make it a little get away place?"

"Oh most definitely, I was planning to anyway. I'm glad you liked it."

"I loved it! It was so beautiful and peaceful."

"You should see it over the sunset."

"Maybe I will soon."

We soon arrived back and the damage wasn't as bad as I thought. Then again, there were people already working on fixing the damage and children with their families safe from harm. Ren made a public announcement he will find an arrangment until their homes are fully back to normal and even offered them to come in the castle and dine with us and take baths when they need them. The people were looking up to him with admiration and did me too once he introduced that I was going to be his wife. So many people were talking to me and trying to get to know me after that. There were still times where people thought I possessed the spirit of Khissa because of my kindness and usually that makes a girl jealous and things like that but not me, I actually kind of liked it. The rest of the day went by smooth and the dinner was amazing. I don't know how long it's been since I've had this much food that I love. That night I stayed with Ren in his room which no one seemed to be against thankfully and so we decided I would stay with him every night since we were going to try and get married once everything had calmed down.

About a month passed when our wedding came. I had a long white gown with a little lace in the front. I hadn't felt very well all day and Ren tried to convince me to make it another day but I refused so we just decided to make it quick but royal and a day to remember. It wasn't until that evening after the reception and all the celebrating when I got sick. I was in the bathroom throwing up and I don't know why but I ate a little to much at the reception, more than my usual eating. I know I didn't get sick from alcohol since I haven't had any since getting here. So I started putting clues together while Ren was holding me and it hit me that I hadn't had my period in a month. When I finished and laid against his chest "Uh R Ren? Is there a way to do pregnancy tests or anything in this dimension or should we go back to mine?"

"We have a way here, why? Wait you don't think that you are, is it possible you are?"

"I haven't had a period in a month so unless I skipped a month, I don't know."

"We're about to go find out." With that we went to where a medical center type place was in the castle. I didn't read many fairy tales so I don't know the exact terms for this. When we got there and explained the nurse first of all seemed thrilled and hoped that I was and eagerly guided me to sit on a chair and carefully drew my blood. Personally, I prefer the peeing on a stick but this would be accurate too. After waiting a while she came back with a smile on her face "Milady, you are indeed with child. Congratulations to you both, I can't wait to see what the baby looks like!" I thanked her and the rest of the day and the months that followed Ren and I discussed names as he rubbed my stomach.

It was about 8 months in when it finally hit me "Ren I think I've came up with something"

"Really? What?"

"Well if it's a girl Alila Rose. ALila after your mother and Rose after mine. If its a boy Darmin Joseph Khalid. Of course Darmin after your cousin, Joseph after my father, and Khalid after yours."

His face lit up in a heartbeat "I love it! They're perfect names, although it is rare for a child here to have two middle names."

"They'll be okay" I giggled.

"I know" he chuckled.

The next month came and I went into labor. It took about 7 hours until I finally gave birth and we welcomed a son. We couldn't be more proud to hold little Darmin. When he wrapped his tiny hand around my finger, I knew then that this twisted fate of mine turned into the most perfect fate ever. I have forever with Ren and Darmin, quite literally and when he's a little older we decided to go to the real world to find my friends and let them meet Darmin and hopefully not murder Ren, which they couldn't if they tried. Giggling to myself I kissed Darmin's head looking forward to my future life. For once, I finally found where I belong and it's my own little twisted fairy tale.
