Chapter 27

Ambers Pov

3 months passed Alarik seemed to help a lot with kyra, which gave me more time to finish my first year of med school.

Nathan was pretty shocked to learn about Alarik, but came to get used to him quickly. and my sweet baby Kyra was growing so fast. Chris and I got closer and although we still weren't living together, we did spend nights at both of our places.

"Alarik I'm meeting my mom for lunch with Kyra so you can just take the afternoon off" I said as I picked Kyra up from her crib. "are you sure?" he asked popping into the room. "yeah it's no problem I'll be fine for the rest of the day" I replied with a light smile. "Alright I'll see you later then" he replied and disappeared as quickly as he appeared.

"Come on sweety let's go see Grammy" I said to Kyra in a baby talking tyoe voice. over the past 3 months Alarik really did help a lot with kyra. because of him, Chris and Nathan, I was able to finish my freshman year of med school with no issues.

Because Alarik was helping me so much with Kyra, we had become closer, almost friends even.

"Amber over here" my mother yelled as I carried Kyra into the restaurant. I walked over to the table and there was already a booster seat there for Kyra. "hey mom" I said as I sat Kyra in the booster chair then sat down. "how's the coven coming back together?" I asked as I started to read the menu.

"well I'm still having issues with a lot of the older witches in the coven, but I've rebuilt a majority of it" she started. "hopefully it'll be one again within the next few months but we can only wait and see" she explained.

"I don't think that's up to you" Martha said appearing out of no where "speak of one of the devils" my mother said ignoring her. "do you have the ability to teleport or something? you seem to always appear out of no where" I said sarcastically.

"it's irrelevant to you and your monster baby" Martha said looking down at Kyra. I quickly stood up. "how dare you" I said to her "even the seer saw her as a monster" Martha replied. "Let me warn you now Martha, if you don't take your old wrinkly skinny ass and get it away from me my mother and our daughter, I will burn you alive right here and right now and get away with it" i threatened.

"how dare you" she said "Ignis..." I started "fine I'm leaving" she said. "I hope you and your family burn in hell one day she said she she began to walk away. "don't worry Martha I have no doubt that you'll be the one burning with us" I yelled at her then sat down.

my mother just laughed. "oh that was absolutely beautiful" she said continuing to laugh. "the look on her face was priceless" she continued. "hey you know what she can think all she wants that were gonna burn in hell, but if she really thinks she won't burn with us she's crazy" I said "they want to think that I created the devil spawn so be it, but what they obviously so completely don't want to realize is that, you can't create the devil spawn without the devil, and the devil me" I explained seriously.

"you got that right my dear" my mother replied as she began to calm down and fun the same time wiped a single tear fun her eye. "honestly I'm just glad no one has come after you or Kyra since she was born" my mother said now talking seriously. "I agree, it nice honestly, but let's try not to jinx it please" I replied.

she was right. no one had really tried to come after Kyra since she was born. it was peaceful. the fear I once had that someone would try to take her again filled my head with nightmares for weeks of wasn't until my mother put a security spell on the apartment that I actually began to calm down about it.

after the little bit of drama with Martha, my mother and I continued to talk as she also fawned over Kyra. we finished our lunch and my mother walked us out to my new car and we went our separate ways.

the drive home wasn't long. maybe 10 minutes, but I decided to take the scenic route home as a way to just relax. it also helped Kyra fall asleep as well. so after an extra long and uneventful drive that lasted about an hour we finally made it home.

I parked the car in the residential parking then carefully took Kyra out of her seat as not to wake her. I walked over to the elevator and waited. it dinged once it go to the first floor, the door Opened and I got on still holding Kyra in my arms.

I pressed the button for the 5th floor and after a minute of waiting we got to the 5th floor then I walked to my apartment. when I got there the door was unlocked 'that's strange' I thought to myself. I opened the door and it was dark. I walked in then closed the door behind me "hello" a voice said from behind me causing me to jump.

I turned to see Alarik. "What are you still doing here?" I asked "you scared me half to death" I said. "I'm sorry he said I just really wanted to see you and couldn't wait" he said with a smile. "what in the world are you talking about?" I asked taking a step back and holding Kyra slightly tighter. "don't worry Amber id never hurt you or Kyra I could never" he said taking a step closer to me.

"Alarik why are you being like this?" I asked nervous taking another step back. "Because Amber I love you, I've loved you since the day I first saw you" he said. "I have a boyfriend who is also my mate" I replied to him as I continued to back away. "I know... and I tried to ignore my feelings for you... but the more I spent time with you the harder it became" he explained.

"I'm sorry Alarik but j don't love you" I told him honestly. "I know" he said as he finally cornered me against the wall. "That's why.... I'm gonna make you love me" he said seriously.
