Fernando stared at Morgana as she opened the door to her home to him, she smiled at him softly as she allowed him inside; it had taken a few days to get a hold of Fernando but finally he was here.

“Is she okay?” Fernando asked as he glanced around for his wife, Morgana nodded her head as she lead him through to her living room and offered him a seat; he furrowed his brow as he realised that she wanted to talk to him.

“Physically she is fine, however mentally and emotionally…  I don’t know what they may have done to her Fernando but it’s going to take time for her to recover from it,” she replied making the werewolf stare at her, he hated to think of his wife suffering when he hadn’t been there to protect her.

Morgana sat down across from him and took his hands before she continued to speak.

“Her pregnancy is very healthy,” she reassured him making the werewolf sigh in relief as Morgause appeared from upstairs.

Fernando knew that they hadn’t told Analisa that he was alive, they weren’t sure how she would take the news with her clearly fragile mentality.

"She’s upstairs,” Morgana said letting go of Fernando who nodded his head, he licked his lips as he pushed himself to his feet and slowly made his way upstairs; his ears pricking at the sound of Analisa’s heart which calmed him.

Stopping outside of the room where he knew his mate was waiting, he didn't know what to expect when he was finally in front of her; Fernando took a deep breath before he opened the door and stepped inside.

Analisa didn't look behind her as someone stepped into her room, she couldn't bring herself to care who it was; she just wanted to be left alone so that she could grieve for her loss.

“Ana,” said a voice making the brunette close her eyes, she wondered for a moment if her grief had consumed her and if her mind was now playing tricks on her; she took a deep breath as tears formed in her eyes.

“Ana it’s me,” the voice said as the person lowered themselves to knee in front of her, their fingers brushing away some of her tears as warm hands cupped her cheeks.

“You aren’t real,” Analisa said shaking her head, Fernando sighed as he looked at his wife; it broke his heart that she was like this, she seemed to broken and he wanted nothing more than to fix her.

Analisa opened her eyes sadly and looked at Fernando, he was dressed in a grey striped top and dark jeans and white trainers; his eyes searched hers for a moment as if searching for something.

“It’s me… I’m alive,” Fernando said trying to convince her, he moved a hand to remove her 9ct white diamond set pendant from around his neck; Analisa stared at it shocked as he pressed it into his hands.

The last time Analisa had seen it was when Roman had ripped it from her neck and had taken it, she didn't expect to have it ever returned to her yet here it was.

“It’s me amor,” Fernando said again as he cupped her face, he could see the shock in her eyes and he wondered if she was okay; of course he wasn’t prepared for what happened next.

“Is she okay?” Fernando asked Morgana worried as he watched the high priestess check his wife over, it had frightened him when she had dropped into a dead faint; though he had screamed for Morgana, who had come running.

“Her mind needs to rest… seeing you might have been too much for her,” Morgana said gently making the werewolf stare at her taken back, he looked back at his unconscious wife wondering what he could have done to prevent this. Morgana smiled softly as she rested a hand on Fernando’s shoulder, he looked at her lost for a moment,

“You have to remember… Analisa has thought you were dead for nearly three weeks, it’s been a shock for her to learn that you are very much alive,” Morgana explained gently making Fernando nod his head.

The werewolf knew that while he had thought Analisa was dead, she had also thought the same about him until a few moments ago.

“She should wake soon,” Morgana reassured him making Fernando take his wife’s hand; he didn't know how grateful he was for Morgana for what she had done for him.

After the high priestess had left them alone allowing Fernando to take in the appearance of his wife, she looked paler than she had when he last saw her; he pressed his lips to her hand as he smiled down at her.

The werewolf sighed as he looked at his wife now that he was a free man he had plans for what he wanted to do with his life; of course he didn't have any intentions of traveling back to Spain, but he knew that he wanted his child to be brought up somewhere safe.

“I know that there is still a lot that needs to be done… but I want to get things settled as soon as possible,” Fernando said as he ran a thumb across the back of Analisa’s hand, he watched his wife for a moment with a small smile on his face; he wondered how she would take the news that he had bought them a home.

A soft murmur made Fernando look at Analisa’s face, his smile got bigger as he realised that she was starting to wake up.

“Ana,” the werewolf murmured as he watched his wife open her brown eyes, she stared at him for a moment as if still not quite believing that he was here.

Fernando sat quietly as he allowed her to wrap her head around the fact that he was sitting in front of her, she swallowed as he gently rubbed a thumb back and forth over her hand.

“Nando?” the brunette murmured as she stared at him, the werewolf nodded his head as he moved to sit in the bed; his brown eyes never leaving hers, the last three weeks finally taking its toll on the bother of them.

“I promised that I would find you,” Fernando said as he cupped her face, Analisa nodded her head softly as tears traced her cheeks.

“You’re not dead,” Analisa said making Fernando chuckle and shake his head, he cupped her face as he sat close to her; the brunette licked her lips as Fernando purred gently as he drew her close to him.

“Roman lied… it was an attempt to break us,” the werewolf said making Analisa nod as he placed her 9ct white diamond set pendant back around her neck where it belonged.

Analisa closed her eyes as she rested her head against his, a sudden calm filling her body, she listened to Fernando purring as he held her close; the last few weeks had been tough on them, he wanted nothing more to take her home.

“What happens now?” Analisa asked as she pulled back slightly so that she could look into Fernando’s eyes, he ran a hand down her back in comfort; he nuzzled his head against hers.

“We’ll have to head back to the manor for a couple of days… judgement has to be passed against your uncle, then we’ll head to the house that I have bought us,” Fernando said making Analisa look at him, he chuckled as he cupped her face; he kissed her lips softly as he held her close.

“I love you,” Fernando said making Analisa smile as he looked at her, he brush some hair from her face as he kissed her again.

“I love you too,” Analisa said as she felt for the first time in weeks that everything was finally going to be okay.
