Blain watched the internal struggle on Bethan' s face for the past hour when she noticed her niece' s eyes slowly
close as drifted into she hoped was deep sleep, stroking her niece's hair tenderly Blain felt the presence outside of
their home it was not a evil feel to it but still she would make sure that the protection they had placed around the
home was strengthened. She remembered her lovely late sister Beatrix when ever she looked at Bethan, Belle
Beatrix and she had been triplets so Blain had felt triple the pain when Beatrix' s body was found along side her
true heart mate Daru . She had remembered the day her sister had jumped over the broom i.e. got wed to the
wrong man at the age of 16 but it had seemed to make Beatrix all the more fiery and when yeas later Beatrix met
Daru they had seen the difference in their sister who glowed with joy and sorrow when Daru had
disappeared "he would never just leave, Daru could not just let me go without warning he loved me to much to
hurt me Like that!" Beatrix had sobbed Blain had hugged her tightly Whilst Belle desperately tried to scry for Daru
on the local Map suddenly Beatrix had gasped putting a had on her belly "he would not leave me and our daughter
without his love And protection…" Beatrix eyes where as large as saucers as Whispered the last words in horror
"and Belle can not find Him, oh Daru my love!" she had wailed hysterical now her Heart was breaking. Blinking
away from her thoughts for a Moment Blain left the bathroom to grab a blanket to put over her niece taking the
chance to see who was there crossing the front bedroom she stared intently on the young man seemed surprised to
see her there 'aaaah' she had smiled to Her self 'not so young at all but Carpathian' the mans eyes caught hers as
they linked minds 'She is mine' was the first Words Blain heard 'really?' she had answered 'well Bethan is
My niece so there for what I say goes' Akira glowered at Blain who snapped 'oh Shut up with the snarling, I've face
Scarier thing in to toilet after a curry then You' Akira was Genuinely lost for words when she continued on with
'just Because your older then me bigger & then me doesn't mean I won't come out there and kick your arse if you
don't bugger off and leave the bairn alone for tonight, oh by the Way did you put her to sleep a few moments ago?'
Akira Blinked one moment she was threatening him the next she Was quizzing him 'so this is what is to have in
laws' he thought to himself before bemused answering 'yes, Bethan begged me To help her sleep and so I did'
Blain nodded her gold eyes a Seren family trait glowed with warmth as she said 'thank you Friend go NOW My
niece is safe and Sleeping deeply good night' Blain turned away from the Window leaving Akira bewildered and
muttering out loud "have I just been dismissed?" lingering a moment or two Longer Before he realised he should
probably go but was Reluctant To leave he had just found his mate but at least she was safe For tonight turning to
mist he whispered his love eternal into Bethan mind before leaving. Blain gently Dropped the blanket over Bethan
as Belle came to stand in The door way with to steaming mugs of tea "Razel & Tristin will be here soon" Blain
nodded with a sigh gratefully taking a Mug from her sister and sipping "Blain" Belle had said softly
"I know you don't want her to go and neither do I but Razel Loves that little girl and has done ever since they
met.." Blain closed her eyes trying to block out her hearts pain but Not quite succeeding as sharply answered "aye
but Razel was also trying to adopt her when she finally found us, I know I know I should be grateful that she found
our precious niece But it still burns Belle" Belle nodded before saying "she found Bethan after two months and we
who had searched the World for her still had not found her after six years BUT that was not our fault! That evil
bastard had spiked Bethan with potions to keep her hidden from the Wicce and to stop her Gifts from blossoming"
the bastard in question Blain knew Was Beatrix' s husband Morris, the man who married for status in Wicce
community and would sell his own mother for a step up the social ladder of their magical world. Morris was
a world class evil bastard the glee on his face so evident When he gloated about Beatrix being pregnant with his
child He failed to notice his wife had lied to him or how low her Spirits had fallen or even the fact that she had been
planning To leave him for a Carpathian mate who worshiped her, the Mental knock came before the actual knock on
the door Razel' s voice whispering to the sisters 'please lower the safe Guards so we can come in' Blain and Belle
nodded to one another and lowered the guards.
