Alexandrite's POV.
Today. Today is the day. I get to see my family again. Oh, how I missed them.
Seth's POV
I wake up in our house. Today. Today is the day. I get to see Landrite again, I get to see my love, my life. And Ry gets to see her mom again. Ry understood from the beginning, her mom, my wife, is a hero.
I get up, and get ready. I take a shower, and dress in an outfit exactly like the one I wore to the Graduation Party. That was so long ago. I exit the bathroom, and nearly fall on my face.
Standing there, waiting is Landrite. She wears a cloak like the other Volturi, and her back is turned to me, but her hair cascades over her back. I recognize her hair anywhere.
"Landrite?" I breathe.
She turns, and her face, it's the same, perfect. Same scars, same tattoo. Same Landrite.
The cloak slips off her shoulders, falling off of her completely. And I can see her scars, evenwn more, everywhere. Her clothes are in tatters, slashes and burns all over.
I rush to her, and lightly hug her, not wanting to hurt her.
"I missed you so so much." She whispers.
I pull back, still holding her, and reply "I missed you to my love, but I u dersrand why you did it."
I stroke her cheek, loving seeing her again.
She leans into my touch, just like old times.
And I lean down, and kiss her. It's sweet, not rough, no desires behind it. We just want each other, but there will be time for that later.
She pulls back, panting, and asks "Before you take me to your family, can I get changed?"
"Of course."
She chooses white shorts over black leggings, a black top, and her favorite leather jacket, the one that has a hood.
We decide instead of rush in to the house, that we will just walk, hand in hand.
"What happened?" She asks.
"Well, after you left, the Denalis, plus Garret, decided to stay with us until you come back, because Alice told us that's what was happening. 4 years. Benjamin and Tia stayed, but left for a little but, but they're back now. And Siobhan and her coven stayed too, left for a little bit, but they are back. Irina's gotten used to us shifters, and she is dying to meet you properly." Seth explains.
And that's when I see the house. And the faces waiting for me.
As I hug my family, I know that I'm never lelsving them again. No matter what.
