"I think we might have it this time."

BANG

"Maybe not" Andrew sighed. "Oh mother will we ever get it right?"

"Patients my love, patients."

*************************************************************

Estella heard the front door bang. She went and there was a red eyed Melantha.

"Oh Estella! You wouldn't believe it! I went out and  I went to the woods and I caughthisscentandhecameoutfrombehindatreewithawerewolf!" Melantha rushed out before breaking downing into streams of tears.

"Hun you will have to speak slower." Estella said calmly.

"Eros. He has a girlfriend, and she is a Werewolf! One of the most lowest beast!" Melantha exclaimed.

"Aw baby!" Estella pulled Melantha into her and let her weep on her shoulder.

They went into the living room and sat down, Estella comforting a heartbroken Melantha.

Willow brought in a cup of herbal tea for her and Bo was muttering something about stringing Eros up by his…

"I think we better go." Willow said pulling Bo up. "We will see you later. Take care."

"Thanks Willow." Estella said smiling faintly at the vampire.

"Now you finish your tea and I will go run you a nice hot bath? Hum? How does that sound?" Estella said tucking a loose strand of Melantha's long golden hair behind her ear.

"That would be great thanks" Melantha replied weakly.

Estella went up and ran her sister a nice hot bath. She added in some essences, lavender and rosemary just to help a bit.

*************************************************************

Dale stopped the car in front of the house.

"Well here we are." He said

"Thank you. I had a really good night." Hazel replied

Dale lent forward and so did Hazel and they kissed again.

*I love you so much* Dale said through the link

*Me too* Hazel replied.

The finally detached from their lip lock.

"You can't tell anyone about it though. I can't explain properly yet, but this is our secret ok?" she said looking deeply into his eyes. He could tell she was saying this because she cared about him.

"Ok"

"well goodnight." Hazel said softly, then got out of the car and headed to the door and turned and watched her soul mate drive away.

Hazel opened the door and went in.

"Estella, Melantha, I'm home." She said kicking off her shoes. She went into the sitting room to find Estella there.

"Hi pet. How was your date?" she asked smiling.

"Great. But how are you?" she asked sitting down next to her sister

"Fine. Though I wish I could say the same about Melantha." Estella said shaking her head.

"why what's wrong?" Hazel asked, concern on her face.

"she went out hunting and ran into Eros"

"whats so bad about that?"

"He was with another girl, a werewolf."

"That Bastard!" Hazel exclaimed

"I finally got her calmed down and ran her a bath. She has just got in actually." Estella sighed. "Anyway how was your date?"

"Well…" Hazel started to tell her but left out some little insignificant details.

*************************************************************

*Ah. Now this is relaxation.* Melantha thought wallowing in the warm water.

Soaking up the smells of Lavender and Rosemary and just clearing her head, she completely forgot about Eros and that tart of a Werewolf.

*I don't need him*

*who?*

*exactly*

She laughed to herself as she lay there eyes shut. And the warm water encircling her and the goddess watching over her she felt empowered, strong and indestructible.

*************************************************************

*Oh shit. What have I done?* he sat down on one of the fallen trees and held his head in his hands.

"are you coming baby?" Trixy asked putting a hand on Eros' shoulder

"Don't touch me" he said shoving her hand away.

"But babe we were going to have fun.." She said sitting next to him and put a hand on his leg.

"Don't touch me!" he half shouted moving away from her.

"Oh forget about her, she is just a silly little girl. It's me you have fun with now let's go back to our den and you can show me what you were going to before we got interrupted…" Trixy said seductively straddling over his legs putting her arms around his neck.

"I said DON'T TOUCH ME!" Eros yelled pushing her off and she hit off a nearby tree.

Trixy got up dazed "EROS COME BACK!" she yelled after him but he was gone running in the direction that Melantha had gone.

"Oh you will be sorry"

*************************************************************

It had been a month and nothing exciting had happened. Estella was in the kitchen washing dishes when someone knocked at the front door.

"Melantha will you get that?" she shouted.

No answer and the knocking continued.

"Hazel will you get that?" she shouted.

No answer.

"Oh for the Goddesses sake!" she dropped the dish and grabbed the nearest cloth and dried her hands as she headed to the door.

"hello…" she opened the door and standing there was Eros. He was looking more gorgeous than usual and smiled.

"How are you Estella? Is Melantha in?" He asked casually. He had on a pair of jeans, a tight top and his leather jacket and dark shades.

"yes but I don't think she will want you to stay. Come in. you can go and sit down. I will go and get her." She turned and hurriedly went up the stairs and into Melantha's room.

Melantha was lying on the bed listening to her walkman and reading a magazine, she looked up and smiled as her sister came into the room.

She took one earphone out. "What's up?" she asked seeing her sister's face.

"There was someone here for you." Estella said slowly. "Waiting in the living room. Where is Hazel?"

"She is in the back yard with Dale." Melantha said hopping of the bed and running down the stairs.

"What are you doing here?" she asked bitterness in her voice.

"I came to apologize. I am really sorry about what happened that night I should have told you about Trixy but I didn't know she was here. She followed me from Miami and that night I was intending to dump her because…because…" Eros started to loose his cool.

"Yes?" Melantha asked hand on hip

"Because you see I love someone else."

"Who?" she asked curtly

"You" he said quietly.

"Really?" she looked shocked.

"more than you can imagine." He replied.

"oh Eros." Melantha cried and ran into his arms. Feeling his strong arms holding her tightly and protectively.

"I've missed you so much." She whispered.

"Me too." He said.

And she lent forward and so did she and for once with no interruptions they kissed. It was sweet and passionate and they noticed something else…

*I love you*

*Oh my Goddess.* Melantha exclaimed.

*oh* Eros said realizing. *Does this mean….*

*Yes. We are soul mates.* she replied happily

Estella was standing in the doorway smiling. She was glad they had made up. She turned and left silently and went to the backdoor and saw Hazel and Dale in the garden. They were sitting on a mat and they were also lip locked.

Estella smiled and turned back to her dishes. Both her sisters were happy and she was happy for them.

*************************************************************

"Darling. I think we have done it."

"really mother? Really?"

"yes sweetheart."

"Oh when can we leave? When can I be back with her?"

"Soon my pet, soon."

"Why not now?"

"Because we want her and her family to think we are never coming back."

"But how long mother? I've missed her terribly. I need her. I have been denied her for too long."

"have patients my sweet, you will have her soon, and then we will both rule."

*************************************************************

Melantha was rubbing the gunk out of her eyes as she headed along the corridor when she heard something.

It was coming from the Bathroom…..

Click. The door opened and Estella stepped out looking rather pale.

"Are you ok?" Melantha asked.

"Yeah just had a bad night sleep that's all." She gave a weak smile. "I'm just going to nip out, I'll be back soon." Estella said and grabbed her coat and went out.

Melantha went into Hazel's room and shook her till she awoke.

"Er.. Mel.. um what you want?" she asked still half asleep.

"Get up Estella has gone out and i think we should make her a nice lunch for when she returns."

*************************************************************

Estella returned at twelve and slowly opened the door.

"Estella?" Melantha said coming in from the kitchen, "We have made you lunch…" she looked at her sister who looked withdrawn. "What's wrong?"

Estella turned without answering she went into the sitting room.

Melantha went into the kitchen.

"Hazel. Estella's back and she's well oh just come something is wrong!" Melantha pulled Hazel into the sitting room where Estella was sitting staring straight ahead at nothing.

"Estella?" Melantha went and sat next to her.

"What's wrong?" Hazel said coming and sitting on the other side of her.

"Hun what is it? You are scaring me." Melantha said taking her Sister's hand.

"Yeah dear what's wrong?" Hazel said gently.

Estella took in a deep breath.

"I…I…" she started

"Yes?" Melantha said tenderly.

"I went to the doctors today." Estella said her voice shaking

"Why what's wrong?" Hazel asked

"What did they say?" Melantha asked.

"I'm Pregnant." Estella broke into tears.
