Cole's POV

Miranda was standing on the door.

Jack and Svetlana's bodies were laying on the floor lifeless. No one was talking or moving only breathing. Derek's hands circled slowly Miranda's waist as he whispered something to her ear. She nodded, bowed to me and followed Derek outside.



We won. Eveybody's dead. Derek informed me from the mind link.

"WE WON" I screamed and everyone started screaming excited, gongratulating each other.

Sam? I talked to Samantha from the mind link, I had to make sure she was alright after her encounter with her father and my mother,

My mother, the traitor.

Cole? Are you alright? Her worried voice echoed through my head.

i am fine, baby. How are you? How's my son? I ask her, I can feel her smile.

We're both fine. Waiting for you, dady. She says sweetly, I laugh through the link, but stop when I am ready to ask her the question.

Is mom- your dad...are they...

They are dead.

She says sadly.

I am coming to get you baby. I tell her and start ordeing people.



The place needed a good cleaning. Bodies and blood was everywhere, but also...people. My people. When they saw me getting out of the palace they run to me, hugging me, thanking me, praising my abilities.

I thanked them all and reassured about their safety and run to the safe house. I needed to be with my beloved mate.



Samantha's POV

He was coming, finaly. My mate was coming to get me, that means we have won.

I got inside the house, my mother was sitting on a chair women around her trying to comfort her. She saw me and looked at me expectanly, "Cole is coming, we won" I told them.

Kids, women, men, they all started celebrating and making arrangements for a grand feist. "He is an able King" my mother whispered to my ear while hugging me tightly.

"I am sorry mother. For everything" I say, she shakes her head and looks at me like I am a fool. "You did you job, which is to protect your family and your people. Just, your father was not the man we wanted him to be" she explained and put one hand on my belly.

"This little guy though, he will be amazing" she said with pride. "Your first grandsone" I tell her she smiles knowingly, "First of many" she says. I blush, "Mom" I whine.

"What? Only one? There is no fun in that" she says. I hug her craving her soothing touch. The touch of a troubled, but proud mother. "Will you help me, raise the pup?" I ask her hoping for a positive answer.

"Are you joking? Where else would I go? Plus, I am not letting you alone, I want to spoil that pup a little bit" she whispers the last part like its a secret.

The door opens and in gets Cole.

I run to him, his arms circle my waist spins me around as he kisses me lovignly. "Everything alright?" I ask him, he nods. "Everything is perfect" he says.

"Hello, Cole" my mother says, Cole nods at her, "Are you alright?" he asks her. She sighs, but nods with her head. "Yes, I am alright" she replies.

"Take your stuff everybody, we are going home" Cole says to everyone and with a bow they all run around to take their stuff and get ready to go back home. Cole and I go to our room and start packing. We don't have many things, since when we got here we got nothing.

"We are finally going home" Cole says as he leaves a lingering kiss behind my ear. "Hmm" I say unable to talk. Cole chuckles at my reply.

Suddenly a small person runs into our room and hugs our legs. We both look down to see little Chloe looking at us happily. "Hello, sweetheart" Cole says and takes her into his arms. "Hello, Cole" she says.

"Are we going home" she asks us and we nodd. "Come on, we have to get your shoes on" I tell her and walk with her to the room where she and other orphans stay. As I am puting her, her shoes on a thought crosses my mind. What if Chloe stayed with us? Could we adobt her? Okay, those are more than one thought.

Chloe voices my thoughts, "Samantha? Where will I live from now on?" she asks me. I look deep into her brown eyes, "I have an idea, let me talk to Cole and I will tell you. Okay?" I say.

"Okay" she says. I take her hand we go to the living room where eveyones waiting for us. "Let's go people" Cole says and slowly we all made our way to the forest, to the path that leads to the palace.





Cole's POV

As we were all making our way back to the palace certain questions popped into my head.

What about Chloe?

She is so young.

Where will she live?

She is an orphan all alone.

Can we adobt her?

I knew those questions were not mine. They were Sam's, I look at her who was walking next to me. Her hand was holding Chloe's tightly. She looked at me from the side of her eye but quickly looked forward, so I wouldn't catch her looking.

"I think its a marvellous idea" I whisper to her, she turns her head and looks at me wide eyed. "You mean it?" she asks me,

"Of course I do. After all she is like a daughter to us" I explain to her. She smiles and pecks my lips. "I will show you how much I appreciate this, late" she whispers to me.

Immediately my patient run out and I wanted to run to the palace and into our room.

She takes my hand and while holding Chloes she takes us a few steps away from the people walking. Some look at us confusedly, other just walk their way.

"Where are we going?" little Chloe asks us, "I want to ask you something" Sam tells her. She looks at her waiting for her to continue. "How would you like it, to come stay at the Palace and me and Cole become your parents" she says trying to sound mature yet childish for her to understand.

"You mean, you and Cole be my mama and dady?" she asks us, "That's right sweetheart" I say. She pretends to think about it, but I can already see the answer in her eyes. "YES" she screams and hugs us both.

"I am going to tell my friends" she says and runs of to the crowd.

"That went well" I say to Sam as I pull her into my arms.

"Yes, thankfuly" she says. My hands trail her back and down to her butt, "Cole" she scolds. "What? No one is looking" I say and look around.

She just scoffs, and takes my hand leading my back home.



Samantha's POV

The palace was cleaner than ever.

I could smell the chlorine in the air, which made me nauseous.

"Was that dirty that you had to use tons of chlorine?" I asked Cole as we made our way inside the palace. He made me lie down to one of the couches in the living room. "Let's just say it was a bloody mess" he says. I nodd and a deep breathe trying to keep calm and not vomit on the newly clean floor.

Miranda come inside the living room and runs to me.

"How are you feeling? Why are you laying down?" she asks me worried, "Chlorine. Baby. Nauseous" three words and she understood completely. "Do you want some chocolate cake to make you feel better?" she asks me and I nod like crazy.

When she leaves the room I see Cole looking at Derek with a weird look in his eyes. "What is going on?" I ask them, Cole shakes his hand, "Tell me" I insist.

"Miranda killed Jack and Svetlana" Derek admited. "Oh my god. How is she?" I ask Derek alarmed, "Relax, your highness. She is alright, I talked with her, we are just a little worried" he admitted.

"Why?" I ask them. "Baby, don't think about it now" Cole says, "Cole, stop keeping things frome me" I tell him.

"There is a possility her powers go crazy. She killed once, she can do it again" he explained.

For some, the idea that if a Special kills he or she get addicted to it, it was just a myth. For others, a belief. I killed do, does that mean I will go crazy and crave blood? I voiced my worries to Cole and Derek, they both said that if that was true, they would do anything to prevent it.

"Sam, cake" Miranda screamed at me.

I forgot everything about killings and went straight for the cake.

In the large kitchen Mirand and little Chloe, my daughter, were sitting on the table eating a piece of chocolate cake. "Come mama, this is great" Chloe says, Miranda freezes and looks at me, I'll explain later, I mouth to her and take a piece.



Later at night, a huge feist was organized in honor of the fighters who saved us.

There was dance, food, jokes. It was fun, Miranda and I danced our favourite song. The afternoon before the feist we had talked about Jack, his betrayal and false reasons for it. Miranda did not blame me for the end of Jack and I did not blame her for his death. His father was shattered, but he knew that his son was heading the wrong way. We sent his body to the pack and Svetlanas to her family. Then her body would join Jack's at the pack's grounds. After all, they were mates.

At the feist, we announced my pregnancy and the adoption of little Chloe. Mom was excited, she had one grandchildren and one on the way. She was playing with little Chloe right now, making jokes and being a good grandmother.

There were times I caught her sighing sadly, I knew it was because of my father, but everytime she did that Chloe would hug her and she would smile again.



When Cole and I got into our room we spent a night full of passion.

We just left everyone and everything behind and made sweet passionate love. That's what we needed, and craved. Cole was very careful with the way he was touching me, he didn't want to disturb the baby, which was both sweet and annoying.

My life was perfect now. Everything was right...





I only hope they stay that way.
