Nova couldn't sleep. She kept tossing and turning no matter how exhausted her body felt.
"Roman", Nova sighed.
"Where did you leave my child?", Nova asked, her five month bump showing.
Roman smirked and he knew he was in trouble with her. He placed both hands on her stomach.
"She's safe, it's apart of training. I did it, Dean did it, and so did Seth.", Roman explained.
"She's four years old Roman, four", Nova shouted.
"I started at three", he said.
She stood in front of him, poking his chest with her index finger.
"If anything and I mean ANYTHING, happens to my baby, your head is rolling", she said.
"You look so sexy when you're angry", he said smiling.
She raised a brow. He released her stomach.
"Roman", she warned.
"She's not alone. Sami is with her, in the shadows but he's with her", Roman said.
"My threat still stands, Alpha", Nova said.
He licked his lips.
"I wouldn't let anything happen to our baby. She's perfectly safe on our lands", he said.
"She better be", she said.
She turned to walk past him, slapping his butt on the way back to their house.
"Mommy, I did it", Mia said appearing.
Nova exhaled. Roman looked over his shoulder at her with a, see I told you, look. Nova glared at him before checking her daughter for any damage. Roman bent to his daughter's eye level.
"You did so good princess", he said.
Mia giggled and hugged her dad.
Nova sat up, trying to catch her breath.
"Mia", she said.
Seth walked into the room and turned the light on.
"I felt your panic, everything okay?", he asked.
"Mia. My daughter's name is Mia", she said.
"You don't have a daughter, Nova", he said.
She swallowed, feeling her throat dry.
"It wasn't just a dream Seth, it felt so real", she said.
"You think maybe, Abigail kept that part out of the story she told us?", he asked.
"I hope not, because my Phoenix is pissed", she said.
"She's not allowed out, she promised", Seth said.
"Relax, she's not breaking it, it's why I'm still here", she said.
Seth nodded.
"Try to get some more sleep", he said.
She nodded before he walked out. She couldn't stop repeating that dream, the little girl's face. She looked so much like Roman.
"Mia", she whispered.
"Mommy, I hear you mommy"
Nova sat up and looked around.
"Where are you? I can't see you mommy"
"Seth", Nova screamed.
Roman's eyes snapped open. Looking around. He felt her. Mia. He tugged hard on the chains holding him. He roared and growled, but they wouldn't budge.
"I'm coming Mia, daddy's coming", he said, he stopped.
Daddy?
The door to the cell opened and Karl walked in.
"What the hell is with all the noise?", he asked annoyed.
"You have to let me go. My daughter needs me, I have to get to her", Roman explained.
Karl laughed.
"You? Have kids? Yeah right", Karl said.
"Let. Me. Out. I won't kill you if you let me go now. Last warning", Roman threatened.
Karl was a bit terrified, but he couldn't show it.
"N-O", Karl said, laughing as he walked out.
"Let me out", Roman screamed.
He kept screaming those words and pulling on the chains. His wrists were cut open and bleeding. The door to the cell opened again and Luke came in. He grabbed the whip and slapped it against Roman's back.
"Shut. The. Fuck. Up", Luke yelled with every hit.
Roman clenched his teeth. He needed to get out. Finally Luke stopped. He set the whip on the counter and walked out.
Nova was in pain again. The marks on her back appeared again. Becky applied more cream.
"I called out to her and she answered", Nova mumbled.
"What?", Becky asked.
"Mia. I had a dream and when I woke up, I called out to her. She replied, she could hear me", she said.
"Are you sure?", Becky asked.
Nova nodded.
"I felt her, she's real", Nova said softly.
"All of this is so confusing, its, why can't we remember any of it?", Becky said.
"I can show you my dream", Nova said, holding her hand out to her cousin.
Becky took her hand and flashes of Nova's dream popped into Becky's head. The little girl's face coming into view. Roman congratulating the little girl for finding her way home. Nova let go and wiped her nose with the tissue, blood filling it.
"She's real", Nova said.
Roman lifted his head, feeling something dripping down his nose. Looking at the ground, it was blood.
"Nova", he said softly.
How was that possible? They weren't mated. Remembering Dean's theory about Abigail changing time. He had to be mated to Nova.
"Nova", he tried to link.
He closed his eyes.
"Phoenix", he called.
Nova pressed her hand to the side of her head. The Phoenix taking over, causing Nova to faint.
"Nova?", Becky said, shaking her cousin lightly.
Seth walked in with a glass of water.
"What happened?", he asked, setting the cup down.
"I don't know. Finn", Becky said.
Finn appeared.
"We don't know what happened. She just fainted", Becky said.
She and Seth moved aside to let him near her. Pressing his hand to her forehead, he read her thoughts before she pushed him out. Almost knocking him back. He shook his head.
"It's the Phoenix, she's talking to Roman and she doesn't like being looked in on", Finn said.
"But she said she couldn't find him", Seth said.
"She couldn't, he found her. Their dream walking.", Finn said.
"Can she pin point his location?", Becky asked.
Finn shook his head no.
"Doesn't work that way, unless he knows where he's at exactly", Finn said.
Seth sighed.
"Now we just wait for her to wake", Finn said.
"Roman?", Nova called out into the fog.
She walked a bit, but the fog wasn't letting up.
"Roman?", she called again.
"I'm here", he replied.
She looked around, but all she saw was fog.
"Why can't I see you?", she asked.
"Think of a place, a place that means the world to you", he said.
She didn't know. Her home had bad memories without her parents. Her apartment wasn't much fun. She closed her eyes and pictured a place. Opening them, she was standing in front of Roman's house.
"My place means the world to you?", she jumped at the sound of his voice.
Roman smiled.
"Not your house, you", she said.
He placed his hand on her cheek.
"Where are you, Roman?", she asked, stepping closer to him.
Needing to feel his warmth. She hasn't felt it in so long.
"I'm not sure. They covered us", Roman said.
Remembering her back.
"You're hurt, I can feel it", she said.
"Not here, not in our dream", he said.
She placed her hand on top of his.
"Abigail told me everything. How she got Boogeyman to change time, to change us", she said.
"I had a feeling", he said.
"We have a daughter, Roman. I dreamt her, heard her", she said.
"I heard her too. We have twins my love", he said.
"Twins?", she said surprised.
He nodded.
"In the dream I had, you had just given birth to them. The twins I saw before finding you, they were ours", he said.
Nova remembered the twins at the park. The twins she couldn't seem to leave behind.
"I want my babies back", she said softly.
"I'm going to find a way out of where I am and I will find them. We belong together", he said.
"I miss you", she whispered.
"I miss you more", he said.
He felt someone tugging him back.
"Roman?", she said as he started fading away.
She woke up.
"You're back", Seth said, standing and sitting beside her.
She sat up.
"He doesn't know where he is, but he's trying to get out. We need to get him out of there", Nova said.
Seth nodded.
"He heard Mia too. He dreamt about her, she's real", Nova said.
Seth smiled.
"And we're going to find her, I promise Alpha", Seth said.
"Doesn't that mean that you have kids too? Roman had told me about that", Nova said.
Seth smiled.
"I have kids", he said.
Nova smiled at his reaction.
"We're going to get our families back", she said.
He reached over and squeezed her hand.
