Episode 8 – Part 4

Arica smiled widely as she approached, listening to the talking and laughter of the others. After all their hard work, things had been restored to their normal state, now their community was safe again, the cult destroyed and they were planning to enjoy themselves with a well-deserved break for now. Which meant today, with the other founders and those who had become part of their main group, they would take advantage of the lake that had become part of the community and go swimming. Arica's smile turned into a grin as she saw the way Niko eyed her, clad in her purple strapless bikini, while he work dark blue trunks with a black stripe down each leg.

Taking his hand she whispered. "Reign it in, love. Let's not make Jonas a middle child just yet."

"Alright, alright." Niko agreed, laughing.

He smiled and turned his attention to Jonas, pulling his son to his side as the boy, clad in his dark blue trunks, hugged him. Coming up to the lake side they all watched in happiness as they saw the kids had already got in the water and were swimming and playing together. Misha, wearing blue trunks was happily swimming alongside Lydia, in her purple one-piece. Meanwhile Iskra, in a white one-piece was gently encouraging the pink one-piece clad Kalina with her swimming, both watched over by their boyfriends, both clad in Speedos, Sergei in blue and Ivano in red.

Still smiling Niko looked around at the others, taking note of the couples or families. Indeed the only ones still single, but still part of the group and so considered extended family were Marin, clad in white trunks, and Cveta, wearing a grey one-piece.

Mara watched over her boys, smiling, her black one-piece certainly catching Roman's eye as he joined her, Roman himself in black trunks. Zlata sat next to them to keep an eye on Sergei, wearing a white bikini. Meanwhile Katia and Marko, in a pink one-piece and red trunks respectively, were actually in the water, helping Iskra encourage Kalina.

Finally, watching over Iskra, Christo in his dark red trunks and Ana in a green one-piece. Meanwhile Gregor and Livia, clad respectively in white trunks and a dark blue one-piece sat watching things unfold in joy, Livia cradling Miko who was currently asleep.

Of the final two couples, Pavle and Britta, respectively clad in black trunks with blue and white designs and a green bikini, were also enjoying their swimming, apparently having a race. Meanwhile a blushing Grozdan sat at the edge of the lake, tugging self-consciously at his white Speedo, while Ansel, clad in green trunks, was encouraging him to get in, and that he looked good.

Holding his family close, Niko smiled softly.

"This is what we've built, this is our haven and we have protected it." He said at last. "Let us...take a moment to enjoy things, to celebrate. While we have no idea what the future may hold and will have to be on guard. Let us just now, take this moment, just for us...to be happy."

Arica grinned as she couldn't agree more.


End of chapter, story and of the series, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
