Sophia’s POV

Waking up, it took me a few moments to get my barring’s. Looking around I noticed I was tucked into Knox’s bed, well our bed I guess. I mean I have been sleeping here since I got out of the hospital. But my mate was missing when usually he was right beside me.

Glancing at the clock I noticed it was after ten, well now I know why I was alone. What is wrong with me, I have never slept this late in my life. Lately I swear I have been so…

Oh

Yesterday’s events came flooding through my mind. Vampires are real. I am a goddess. Someone wants me and Ella dead.

For some unknown reason I was not panicking. My usual MO was to freak out, but I was calm as can be…

I have literally just been dropped into a Stephanie Meyers book and I am completely fine with it! Seriously what the hell is up with that?

It’s because I am here now…

“Seriously who the hell keeps talking in my head? It just getting really annoying!”

I am you and you are me…

“We thanks that clears it up…who are you?”

Gaea

Well fuck. I guess it wasn’t all a crock of shit. It seems I do have a goddess or at least someone living in me. Just perfect, this is what I have always wanted…a split personality. Great now I am just losing my mind.

You do know I can still hear you, whether you speak out loud or think it…I am you, you are me. And yes we are a goddess.

Great now I really have no privacy. So you can hear me? And if we are one, why the hell do I not feel a connection to you. It’s like you just hijacked my brain or something.

We are not connected until the mate bond is complete. As of now I guess it does feel like someone is living in your brain, but trust me we are one. So if you could hurry up that would be great. I feel kind of lost right now.

Don’t get pushy on me. Knox and I will seal the deal when we are ready, not because my inner me tells me to. And frankly…I am scared…of a lot of things. This is more than just having sex you know.

I know you are and I am trying to help with that. With me, fear nothing. I will protect you. But I need to be entirely released in order to do that. Danger is approaching and you will need me. We need to mate!

Well great, just great. Guilt me with approaching danger. AHHH, this is so frustrating. You are lucky that I have already given Knox the go ahead to complete the mating otherwise I would be really pissed at you or me? God this is so confusing. Just try to keep the comments to yourself until then, okay.

Okay. Have fun, I have a feeling that he is going to rock our world!

Very funny. Okay enough of talking or thinking to my other self…oh god I am really going crazy…

After getting up and preparing for the day I head downstairs. Maybe the crazy part of me will keep quite.

Hey, I take offense to being called crazy.

Apparently not.

The noise from the den draws my attention. Peeking through the door, Ella, Noah and Knox were sprawled out on the couches watching cartoons. They looked like a family. My family.

Making my way into the room, I sat next to Knox, cuddling up next to him.

“Morning baby, did you sleep well? I didn’t want to wake you when these two came looking for breakfast.”

“Thank you, yes I feel great.” Everything is great, except for the voice in my head that keeps talking to me.

Ella popped up and jumped in my lap. “Morning mama, I missed you. Daddy wouldn’t let me climb in bed with you, but he did make me pancakes.”

Hugging her closely, energy seemed to pass from me to her. What was that?

She is our daughter…we share a bond. Give me a few more seconds to finish the link, that way we can always find her.

Okay…well I am totally on board with that. I love my daughter so much and I will do anything to keep her safe and in installing an internal GPS tracking system on her, then I am all for it. Sounds a tad bit overbearing but when someone wants you daughter dead…

After the next show, Knox and I left the kids to their cartoons and headed to his office. He told me that Vladimir left last night but would return soon and also about the men he left behind for extra protection. I was so happy that there were still vampires around as I was so curious to find out all about them. Knox laughed at my excitement, hey who wouldn’t be excited to ask a vampire a ton of questions.

Over the next few hours I assisted Knox in his office learning the ins and outs of pack life. If I was going to be their Luna soon, well I guess I should know what I am doing right? I never knew there was so much stuff to go over. Budgets, businesses to review, properties to build…my poor Knox having to handle this all on his own.

It was a good thing I was excellent at organizing things, because Knox’s files were a mess. Hell, it took me just an hour to separate all the papers in to appropriate stacks. Men are so clueless, he wouldn’t need to spend so much time looking for things if he actually knew where to find them.

Being this close to him all day was pure torture. Gaea or the inner me was driving me mad…kiss him…oh look at his arms, yum…oh his muscles are so scrumptious…damn girl we are so lucky…she wouldn’t shut up. On and on she went. I am sure Knox was wondering what my problem was.

I had to keep fanning myself claiming it was too hot in the room but in reality the heat flashes that kept plaguing my body were enough to entice me to strip naked. That goddess sure had a creative imagination…who knew the mother of all goddess’ had a dirty side to her.

By the time the kids interrupted us for dinner, I moaned out in relief, needing to distance myself from my incredibly desirable mate. I was afraid I was going to burst into flames otherwise. I mean seriously there was only so much a girl could take and when you started to get jealous of a pen because it was in his hands…well yeah you could see why I needed some fresh air.

After dinner we took a walk with the kids around the common area, stopping to speak with several pack members. It was great taking the time to get to know some of them. For the first time in my life I truly felt like part of a family. I couldn’t describe how wonderful that felt.
