'This war between lightness and darkness continued for centuries until one faithful day. A Maiden of Light had gotten lost in the woods. 

After trying to find her way out, she was attacked by the darkness until a Prince of Darkness, sensing the Maiden to be his love, defended her. Marking her as his, he wandered away to see if she felt the same.'

  ‘Some time later, the Prince was attacked by the darkness, furious at his betrayal of them for Maiden. He fought bravely against them, but knew defeat was inevitable… until his Maiden came to help him. Brandishing her weapon, the two fought side-by-side with help from three other Maidens. Their combined strength proved too much for the darkness, and they ended their attack.’

  ‘When it was over, the Prince was healed, and he and the Maiden of Light shared their first kiss of true love, sealing their fate as lovers. Eventually the Prince gifted her with a child, and this caught the attention of the three other Maidens who’d helped them fight the darkness. They confessed their own love for the Prince and joined their sister Maiden in history and motherhood, as the wives of a member of darkness who defended them despite being their enemy. All in the name of love. The End’

  The book was closed and placed back on the shelf. 21-year old Ruby Rose then turned back to her and Logan’s son, Ruben. He had his mother’s complexion and silver eyes, and his hair was the black of his father’s fur.

  He had already been tucked into bed, his blanket covering him and his favorite toy scythe next to him, before Ruby read him his bedtime story. She walked over and sat at the edge of his bed.

  “You love that book, don’t you Ruben?” She asked.

  “Yes, mommy. I love it as much as you love reading it to me.” He replied with a smile.

  “Not as much as I love you,” She planted a kiss on his forehead as she stood up. “Goodnight.”

  Ruby walked over to the open door of Ruben's room, stopping to look at him over her shoulder before turning the light off and exiting the room.

  She let out a content sigh as she softly closed the bedroom door. Turning to her right she saw her older sister and fellow wife of Logan, Yang Xiao Long-Rose, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed.

  “Did Ruben give you any trouble?” She asked.

  “No. Did Kevin?”

  “No, he’s a good boy. Just like the rest of his brothers.”

  The two paused their conversation when Blake walked out of Ben’s room, her hand over her black maternity dress and cradling her swollen tummy. She closed his door and walked over to Ruby and Weiss.

  “What’s up?”

  “Not much, just talking about Ruben and Kevin. How’s Ben?”

  “He’s been good. I think he likes the idea having a sister. Ooh!” She leaned down as her hands went to her belly in an effort to calm down her fussy unborn daughter. Blake’s last heat cycle with Logan ended with her getting pregnant again, only this time with a daughter.

  “You alright Blake?” Yang asked, putting her hand on her shoulder. Blake managed to raise her head up to answer Yang’s question.

  “Y-Yeah, I’m alright. Our little girl is just a real kicker. Doctor’s estimating she’ll be due around next week.”

  “No argument there. She must get it from her dad; Weiss had the same problem with Jordan, remember?” All the women began to quietly laugh at Yang’s reminder.

  Jordan, the son Logan had with Weiss, had a strange yet funny habit while she was pregnant with him: almost every night towards the end of her pregnancy Jordan would plant his feet against her ribs and push in an attempt to stretch his legs and cause his head to hit the inside of Weiss’ cervix. Everyone knew when it happened because Weiss would jump up while cursing like a sailor.

  It made his delivery quite easy for her, at least.

  After that memory finished they finished getting ready for bed and headed to their room to turn in for the night. Upon entering they saw Weiss at her area of the bed reading her book, Cold Heart, Hot Love under the light of a lamp. She looked up from her page when she heard the door open.

  “Hey girls. Ready to call it a night?” She asked as she put her bookmark in.

  “You bet!” Yang said. She then looked around the room before asking, “Where’s Logan?”

  Her answer came in the form of something bumping her butt. She let out a small yelp before turning around to see Logan wagging his tail.

  “You perv!” She said before pulling him into a loving hug. The other joined in the embrace before pulling apart and getting into bed. Logan helped each of them get tucked in and gave them a kiss good-night on their lips.

  After he was finished he got into bed with Blake and nuzzled her belly. Tonight was her night to snuggle with Logan, and she enjoyed how his presence seemed to help calm their baby down, allowing her to get a much-needed good night’s rest.

  After making sure his daughter wasn’t going to trouble Blake he covered the both of them up with their blanket, bigger than the others so Logan would be covered well and gave Blake her kiss. Weiss reached over and turned the lamp off, enveloping the room in darkness.

The End
