“Rose?…”
She looked at Rose who was standing beside her and kept the note In the right pocket of her coat.
“What are you doing here?…”
Rose sat beside her.
“I am here with my boss, it’s a lunch time so I am out… What are you doing here?…”
Eira noticed the little hardness in Rose’s voice but she was so much soft than before, it’s like she has started feeling things too.
“I am just enjoying myself…”
Eira gave him small smile.
Rose looked at her calculated.
“You are smiling…”
She said.
“I know… Xavion has changed me, you know Rose I never thought that one person could change my life so much. It’s like I am totally a different person.”
Eira smiled at the memories and looked at Rose.
“And I can see the same changes in you…”
Rose sighed looking straight at the lake. Eira knows that Rose isn’t someone who can open up easily.
“Rose I don’t work with you anymore, I am not Bounded anymore. I can see that you are thinking about something which is bothering you. I have always admired you and your strength, I can clearly see the changes. You can share with me, may be you will feel better…”
Rose looked hesitated before speaking.
“I think I am falling for my boss, Eira… But I can’t have him…”
Eira looked surprised but smiled.
“I never thought that you can fall in love Rose… I know you have restrictions but if he loves you too then don’t hold back. Love is worth fighting. And you are unstoppable, you can destroy Renzo and his agency within snap of your fingers, you are that powerful so what’s stopping you…”
Rose shook her head.
“It’s not about power Eira, it’s about me and him… He doesn’t know the real me…”
“Then tell him if wants to know you…”
Eira said desperately.
“Who won’t want you Rose, you are the dream of every man could imagine… I know it’s hard for you to express and confess but atleast try it, may be it will change your life…”
“Okay”
Rose nodded.
“You are not heartless like you show yourself… You are far more soft Rose…”
Eira said.
Rose smiled bitterly.
“I am a killer, if it’s not heartless then what is it?…”
“We didn’t chose this life…”
Eira sighed.
“What happened to you?… You look tired…”
Rose questioned.
“Are you really questioning me?… Do you care or you are just curious.”
Eira chuckled.
“Same thing which you said earlier, may be you feel better. May be this is the reason why we met today…”
She suggested.
Eira licked her dry lips.
“I am pregnant, Rose…”
She declared and looked at Rose who was looking at her with Normal face. Eira knew that Rose won’t judge her and she was right.
“And?…”
Rose simply asked.
“And xavion don’t know about it. Actually he prepared some birth control for me and I failed to take that. Now I don’t have a courage to tell him that I am pregnant.”
She ran her fingers in her hair.
“And that’s not the only thing… I am not sure if I want children or not, I am not mentally prepared…”
“does xavion love you?…”
Rose questioned.
“More than himself”
Eira answered confidently.
“Then he should accept you in every situation… If he really loves you then this baby will be the good news for him…”
Rose said.
“And about your mental preparedness then tell me one thing Eira… Which life you liked the most, the one you were living before or this one…”
“Of course this one… That wasn’t life, we were like robots…”
Eira scowled.
“Then why are you so unsure about it… You are having a family Eira. You are going to experience that happiness which most of us can’t. Aren’t you excited about it.”
Eira’s mind started diverting at her words.
“If you kill this baby then what’s the difference between you and your mother. she abandoned you because she wanted to live her life carelessly… Do you want your child to live a life like you or may be you are worst than her that you want to kill it…”
“I am not like her, I was just scared when I heard the news. My emotions are all over the place and I couldn’t think properly but I don’t want to kill it…”
Eira defended herself.
“May be you are right… This is my chance to live a different life. I knew that this moment will come at some point, it’s just I wasn’t ready to embrace it this sooner.”
Rose patted her back.
“Don’t hold yourself back because of your past. You will be the good mother…”
Eira smiled at her.
“Thank you Rose… This is the first time I have seen you talking this much. Looks like he is melting the stone…”
Eira smiled at the thought that Rose is finally letting someone in. since childhood she has seen Rose like a tough fighter and a person. she has never warm up to anyone. Eira was a werewolf and she has turned off her emotions with the help of her power but for Rose it wasn’t like that. she has suppressed her emotions and Eira could understand how difficult it would have been for her. she can feel the pain but can’t express it. Rose is a girl who never breaks the rules even if she have to trade her morals with her life.
Rose cleared her throat awkwardly.
“It’s not like that, I just don’t want you to kill this child…”
“These children…”
She corrected.
“It’s triplets…”
Eira stood up.
“And I wish you to get your love and triplets too, Rose… Bye. I am going back home.”
Rose nodded and Eira walked away.
“At least you have a home to go back Eira… For me it’s just a place where I work and the man whom I can’t have because he doesn’t Belongs to me…”
Rose sighed heading back.
Eira came back home, she went to her bedroom and took off the coat. She placed it aside totally forgetting that she has a note to read.
Xavion was standing in front of the window looking outside, he seem to be in deep thoughts. Eira stood behind him and hugged him from behind bringing him out of his world.
Xavion turned around and she wrapped her arms around him.
“You are back already ?…”
“Yes…”
Eira mumbled.
“Okay…”
He breathed out.
“I have something to tell you…”
Eira nodded.
“Actually I want to tell you something too…”
She said nervously.
Xavion looked at her suspiciously with calculating gaze.
“What is it?…”
