| searched around in the crowd for Simon because | could see how Freya was starting to get unsettled from the
absence of the boy. It looked like he was nowhere around and | was just about to move from my seat to properly
search for him when a familiar mop of raven hair caught my attention.
Emilia.
And cuddled up in her arms was Simon. The two didn’t look like they were having any conversation. They just
looked to be enjoying each others company. It was such a beautiful sight and just stared at them for a full
minute.
The paranoia eased a little from my mind knowing the boy was safe. The last thing | wanted was for the tiniest
thing to go wrong, | wanted this to go as easily and as smoothly as possible for all of us. It was the least we
deserved.
| take a sweep of the crowd once more with my heart pounding heavily in my chest, almost as if it knew that
something was about to go wrong. There was nothing out of place. Everyone seemed to be in high, merry spirits
and it looked like | had nothing to worry about.

And with this realization, | relaxed a little more in my seat.
. I raised the glass of drink to my lips and just before | could take a sip from it, | caught sight of the familiar red
haired i had
been praying to never see again.
It was a good thing | was yet to put the drink into my mouth because | might have spat the entire thing out and
created a scene which was the last thing | wanted to do in this moment.
| removed the glass slowly from my lips and when | looked to the sspot, she was nowhere to be found. |
couldn't believe my eyes, there was no one standing in the spot right where she had been standing and there
was no explanation for it. | looked around quickly and I still couldn’t her mane of red hair.
She had looked as beautiful and as perfect as the twhen she had been alive. It was hard to believe that she
was here in flesh but | know what my eyes had seen. That face wasn’t one | could ever forget or mistaken.
| brought the glass back to my lips and took a sip of it and immediately my nose and lips scrunch in disgust at
the aroma and taste from the drink. It wasn't like anything that | had ever taken before. | tried to look around for
the maid that had served the drink but she was nowhere to be found.
Once again.
There wasn’t a large crowd of people around but somehow everyone just had a way of disappearing.
“How does your drink taste like honey?” | asked Freya and she turned her attention to me.
“Grapes | think. It’s nice. Did you get something different?” She responded and | frowned.
“I could have sworn we have the sdrink maybe because of the color but mine doesn’t taste or smell like
grape at all.”
Freya brought her glass to her nose and took a sniff of it as if to confirm and then she took my own glass to take
a sniff and before | could stop her she took a sip from the glass.
My heart dropped into my stomach and anger immediately overtook my frat the action.

“Why did you do that? There's a lot of things wrong with what you just did. Firstly, it might be alcohol and could
harm you or the babies, then it could be something different that we don’t even know about and you just took a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgoddamn sip from it.” | say through gritted teeth.
| couldn’t explain the sudden anger, | knew that | was upset with Freya's irrational behavior but I didn’t think it
was that bad. “Sorry. | feel fine though, | was just really curious.” She responded and the softness in her voice
eased the anger in my heart. Sighing heavily, | signaled Christie who was passing by us and instructed the maid
to throw away the drinks.
There was an awkward tension between Freya and myself and | felt bad and at fault for upsetting her with my
attitude, | took her hands in mine and rubbed a comforting thumb over her smooth and soft skin, before bringing
her hands to my lips to kiss it.
“I'm sorry.” | said quietly to her and for the first tsince | scolded her, she turned her eyes towardsand
offereda small smile which | happily returned.
And just like that, the tension was gone. Disappeared into thin air. People continued to approach us to make
small talk after small talk with pinches of congratulations here and there, but it made Freya happy so | indulged
it as best as | could.
But | could see that my pregnant mate was getting tired. And | knew that if | didn’t put a foot down then she
would stubbornly fight her body and remain sat in her position, indulging as much people as she could.
“Let's go upstairs love, we've had a long day.” | said to her.
Leould see the protest in her eyes but thankfully Jessy chose that moment to cto us.
