Chapter Fifteen - Dimitri's Past, Clean Version

 Strong Adult Content

"I want to make a stop before we head out," he tells me. I'm getting excited just thinking about a whole day with Dimitri without worrying about anyone else keeping us apart. I follow Dimitri out to the garage, where all the cars are. My parents have approved our outing, just the two of us.

"So, will you tell me where you're taking me?" I ask.

"It's a surprise. You're just going to have to be patient," he says smoothly.

Looking over, he's so calm as a small smile plays on his lips. I find myself squirming in my seat. We pull up to a house that I don't recognize. He parks the car and then walks around to my side. "We're here, " he says as he helps me out of the car.

I follow him into the house, which seems empty. He turns and locks the door, then leads me into another room. He pulls me into his arms, crushing my lips to his. Eager lips that need me want me. Moments like these make the days apart from each other worth it.

He kisses me, and all the thoughts of Ann disappear from my mind.

I feel so loved. He truly loves me. I'm on cloud nine, and this man is my world. I would do anything for him. I will make a way to be with him. I don't want to hide anymore. I want the whole world to know he's mine.  

He is so sweet and gentle when it comes to me that it makes my heart race. "Where have you been all my life?" he whispers as he rubs his nose down mine. All I can do is grin up at him. He says the most heartwarming things to me.

He sits down on the couch, then pulls me into his arms. As I lay in his arms, I try to think of a way to convince my parents to change the law, so I can be with Dimitri. As I listen to his heart, a thought occurs to me, he's never told me about the girl before me. I want to know, but deep down in my heart, I understand why he won't talk about her. Maybe he will tell me about her now. I look up at him and think of how I'm going to try to ask him without making him mad. "Dimitri, will you tell me about her now?" I ask. "Why do you need to know?" he asks. "I just would like to know, please tell me," I plead. He takes a deep breath in, then sighs. His face is now full of strain, as he thinks.

"I was young, straight out of school. Her name was Lilly, we were both guardians, training to join the royal guards. We had trained together for a few years before we graduated. We had both been accepted into the royal guard program but had not yet left to start our training. Still at the base, we were enjoying the time off we had.

"She was the first real relationship I had ever had. She was my first....," he trails off. I can see the hurt in his eyes as he gathers his thoughts. She must have broken his heart, the thought is heartbreaking. I can feel the jealous side of me rearing its ugly head when I think about him kissing and making love to her. I can't let this get to me. I got to let him tell me without showing any emotions. "Go on," I urge him. "The night we finally got off, we were hanging together in my room, and that's when they attacked.

"The sounds of fighting broke out, followed by screams. Before I could get to the door, it came bursting inward. There was a strange woman with red eyes and pale skin entered the room. I still can remember the smirk she had on her face as she approached me. She moved fast, and before I knew it, she was on me. I was fighting with everything I had, but she was getting the best of me. We were trained, and no one was even close to what this girl was like.  I will spare you the details, but something distracted her," he says as he sighs. My mouth drops open, this is not what I was expecting at all.

"It was Lilly, she came in, and I could hear her scream from across the room. She took in the sight of everyone and what was going on," he continues. I watched a man that came in right behind her rush toward her. I was still fighting when they collided. She fought hard but...………….," he said, then stopped in silence.

"She was knocked across the room before she had time to react. I tried to break free from the girl that was attacking me, but the man was already there," he says. I look up at Dimitri, he's white as a ghost. I think I have stopped breathing by this point. 

"I watched her fight with everything she had. She kicked him and punched him with no effect at all. The man grinned at her, then grabbed her by her neck, holding her there while she struggled against his grasp. Lilly fought till her last breath as I dodged the women's blows. I took a hard kick to the ribs, causing me to fall to the ground. When I looked up, I saw that man snap her neck, then he tossed her aside like she was nothing. I was frozen as I stared at her lifeless body lying on the floor," he paused and then takes another breath.

"I got to my feet, fighting the woman that was getting enjoyment from my pain. She was toying with me by the smile that she had on her face. She flipped her hair, then walked out of the room, leaving me standing there. My first mistake was, I let my guard down when I ran over to Lilly, that was lying lifeless on the floor. I didn't get two feet from her when I felt a sickening blow to the back of my head," he tells me.

"I fell to the ground as everything started to go dark. That's when I blacked out. They must have thought I was dead because when I woke up, they were gone.....................," he choked out.

"Everyone was dead, and she lay lifeless right there beside me on the floor. I pulled her into my arms, hoping it was all a bad dream that she would wake up, but her life was already gone from this world. That is why I never got involved with anyone else, that's why I'm so serious about what I do. I don't want them to hurt anyone else, so I trained hard to learn how to defeat them," he tells me. "Who are they?" I ask.

"Night Walkers, the ones with the red eyes," he answers. I gasp in shock, the same red eyes I saw in my nightmares could be the ones responsible for my sister's death.

I pull him tighter to me; this is not what I was expecting him to tell me. I'm stunned, here I was, feeling jealous of a girl that he loved, to only find out that she was murdered right in front of him. Now I feel bad for even asking, even though it lays a lot of my fears to rest. I know this memory has haunted him since the day it happened. "I'm so sorry, I had no idea," I whisper. "I know you were curious about my past, and I knew that one day I would need to tell you about her. I was trying to get up enough courage to even tell you. I want you to know even though it hurts to talk about it. You are my future, she was my past, I've learned to move forward," he tells me as he strokes my hair.

Baby Nightwalkers, Chapter Fifty-Eight

With each day that passes, my heart sinks as I notice the changes in the twins. I know they have the curse, even though it has not been confirmed yet. I know it's just a matter of time before the doctor returns with the blood test results. I cuddle Jordan in my arms as his eyes look up at me, and I can see the slightest tint of red in them. 

Jordan cooes at me as I make faces at him. The twins seem to grow faster than normal, and it's only been a month since they were born, and yet Jordan appears as if he's already six months old. 

I hand Jordan to Dimitri as I cuddle Annabell in my arms. She is the perfect baby, and she has a gentle nature to her. I look at her tiny hands as she wraps her fingers around mine. 

I look at Dimitri as he feeds Jordan a bottle. I never imagined Dimitri being this perfect dad who loves every minute of being a father. 

Dimitri gently burps Jordan as he holds him on his shoulder. 

Daniel, Dimitri's brother, comes over to play with his niece and nephew, and he adores them as much as Dimitri. 

The nurse comes in to check on the twins every day, and she also has noticed the changes in the twins like I have. We try to stay positive as the truth rears its ugly head.  

My nerves are getting the better of me as I wait on the doctor to arrive. I know this is the day he will tell me the news that I have feared from the beginning. "It will be ok. We can handle this no matter the outcome. I was a Nightwalker for over a year, I can help them. I also have my Aunt Amelia. She knows more about this than anyone in my family. I've been keeping her updated on all the changes. She's also been consulting specialists who know a lot about this curse. If I had to guess, Nolan knows about the possibilities and has already started researching," Dimitri tells me. I know he's trying to keep me calm. "Your right, we are not alone in this. No matter what they say, we can get through this together," I say as I wrap my arms around Dimitri. 

When the doctor arrives, he walks over to the twins to greet them. He has a special bond with them since the day they were born. 

It's nap time, so I head over to get Annabell out of her swing. Her little smile melts my heart. 

Dimitri gets Jordan out of his swing and takes him over to his crib. Jordan is already falling asleep in Dimitri's arms. 

Dimitri gets Jordan settles, and Annabell is not far behind him. I place Annabell in the crib as she lets out a small yawn. 

"Tell me, is it what we have feared?" I ask the doctor. "I'm afraid the news is not what I wanted to tell you. The blood samples I took of the twins and the visible signs are Nightwalker traits, and they are only half Nightwalker," he explains to me. 

"What do we do?" I ask in a panic. "It means we have to treat them as if they are Nightwalkers and see what traits are the strongest," he tells me. 

"For example, we need to be careful in the daylight. Keep them out of direct sunlight to protect their pale skin. I'm not sure if we need to give them blood just yet. If their moods change or the weight, then we will have to give it to them. Right now, they seem ok, and they are progressing faster than a normal baby. I will gather up some blood to keep on reserves if we need it. For now, just treat them as if they are normal," he tells me. 

My heart sinks as I stand there motionless as the reality sinks in. "It's going to be ok. You have faced worse situations than this. I will try to find more information on their condition. For now, just try to stay calm," he tells me. 

They tell me everything will be alright, but deep down, I know that is false hope. I witnessed what Nightwalkers can do and how they destroyed my family. They almost killed me on more than one occasion. I saw how Dimitri suffered when he was one. Dimitri almost died, and he almost killed me when pushed to his limit. I don't want this awful fate for my children. 

 

Baby Hybrids - Chapter Fifty Seven

Dimitri wasted no time in making the changes in the baby's nursery to make it perfect for the twins. When he takes me in for the first time, I'm stunned at all the details that he thought of when he put the room together. 

"I had a lot of help from Chris and Daniel with putting everything together, and Jennifer was great at ordering it all. I hope you like it," Dimitri says. 

"It's perfect. Tell everyone that I love it, and it's perfect for the twins," I tell Dimitri as I take him in my arms and hug him tight. 

I go back to the room where the twins are resting in their little cots. I pick up Annabell, and Dimitri follows with Jordan. We take them into their nursery. "Now that they are out of danger, we can examine them to see if they carry the curse of their father," he says to me as he walks over to the crib. My heart races at what he might find. 

He picks up Jordan first to get a good look at his face. 

He appears to have your lightling traits, but I can't be for sure about the nightwalker traits. His skin appears to be normal, as well as his eyes. That does not mean that the curse does not exist. We will have to keep a close eye on him as he grows," he tells me.

He walks over to Annabell that gives him a small smile as he picks her up. 

He looks at her for a moment, studying her like he did with Jordan. "She also appears to have the lightling traits as you. So far, they appear normal. We might have escaped the Nightwalker curse after all. We will have to keep a close eye on her as she grows. She was a surprise, hiding behind her brother in the scans. I don't know how we missed her," he tells me.  

Each day is exciting as the twins grow little by little. Our days and nights are mixed up with the demand of the twins. I often wonder how my mother managed with my sister and me. I wonder if the twins will get into as much trouble as me and Hannah did? I watch Dimitri as he cuddles Jordan in his arms.

All clean and fed, the twins are ready for bed. Dimitri puts Jordan to bed as I get Annabell out of the swing. 

Soft coos come from Jordan as Dimitri tucks him in. 

"Sweet dreams, little one," I say in a soft tone as I lay down Annabell, who lets out a small yawn. 

I sit in my chair watching the twins play in their activity mats. I can't imagine life without them. I thought my dreams of having my own family were gone when the tragedy happened a few years back. Now I was the mother of a beautiful baby girl and boy that I knew my mom and dad would adore. The thought is sad for a moment until Jordan lets out a cute coo that grabs my attention. 

We manage to get a few hours of sleep when the twins wake us up. Dimitri heads for Jordan as I change Annabell's diaper. How did I get this lucky?

The days go by, and it's already been a couple of months. The twins are now three months old. I watch as Dimitri plays with Jordan. Jordan cooes and makes all sorts of noises as Dimitri blows on his belly in the air. I could watch them all day long. 

I'm nervous as the day comes for the Dr. to come and check the twins. I'm not sure what to expect. He walks, overtaking Jordan into his arms. I stand with Dimitri as we wait for the news I fear the most. 

 Although they have grown, the doctor looks concerned as he looks over Jordan. "I'm still not one hundred percent sure, but I do believe they have Nightwalker traits that seem to be mild compared to Dimitri when he was a Nightwalker. The only sign I see so far is the subtle tint of red in their eyes, and their skin has grown pale. I will not know for sure about the teeth yet until they cut them. So far, they appear to be healthy. I will watch their behavior and nutrition to make sure they do not need anything else other than milk. So far, their weight appears normal," he tells me as he gives Jordan a smile. 

The doctor hands Dimitri Jordan, then walks over to Lilly, who just woke up from a nap. 

"She's grown since the last time I saw her," he says as he cooes at Lilly, who smiles big. "Just as I feared, she also appears to have the same appearance as her brother. I will do some blood tests to check and see if there are signs of the Nightwalker in their blood," he tells us as he smiles back at Annabell. 

"When I find out more, we can adjust their lifestyle accordingly, and we can also get help from your aunt that knows a lot about the Nightwalker curse. She may be able to help," he tells us. 

Do you think my aunt would be able to help?" Dimitri asks the nurse. "I think it would be a great idea since she is familiar with the curse in all forms. They were born just like she was, but they have their mom's traits in them too. It's still too early to tell, but we can look at all options and decide on what to do," she tells Dimitri, who looks worried. "I will get just a few drops of blood from his heal to send to the doctor's lab," she tells Dimitri as she goes to the medical kit she brought with her. 

Dimitri holds Jordan tight as the nurse removes his sock and pricks his heel. She lets a few drops of blood run in a small glass vial. Dimitri hugs Jordan to his chest as he pats his back in hopes to comfort him as Jordan's cries start to calm down. I can see Dimitri fights back the emotions that are weighing heavy on his mind.  

The nurse gets blood from Annabell, and she doesn't like it one bit. She cries even louder than her brother, that has now calmed down. "I will let you know when I find out the results of the tests, and we will go from there," the doctor tells me as I place Annabell in her swing. 

Dimitri places Jordan in the swing beside Lilly, who is still crying but seems to be calming down as she relaxes in her swing. 

Dimitri goes back and forth between the twins as their cries turn into smiles. 

"They are the cuties little babies I have ever seen. I wouldn't worry about anything yet until we have to. For now, just enjoy them and let them be babies," she says as she lets out some cute noises to entertain the twins. 

"I know she's right, but I can't stop worrying about the fact that I gave them this curse and that it may change their lives forever. I don't know if I can forgive myself if it's true," Dimitri tells me with a long face. "Don't say that. I loved you when you were a Nightwalker the same way I love you now. It doesn't matter if they are different. I'm different, and you're different from normal humans. Who says they have to be either to be happy. No matter what the future holds for them, they will be loved and cherished. We will make this work," I tell Dimitri, who is surprised by my words.
