I hurried towards the hospital. What could possibly happen? Oh my god. As soon as I went in front of the information desk I immediately blurt out my concern

"Marc Gil , where is he?"-I asked in the woman behind the desk

"The little boy ma'am , He's still in the emergency room ma'am"-she said and I nod mumbling my thanks and sprinting towards the emergency room.

"Mommy!"-Anna spotted me first and I went towards the bed. I sighed as I saw Marc's injured leg being checked by the doctor , his muddy clothes , reddish and sweaty cheeks , his eyes that was closed tight.

"Baby , does it hurts a lot?"-I asked kissing him on his forehead. He shook his head but I could see the little tears on the side of his eyes. I sighed , they had a sport feast today and I was in a board meeting and suddenly I was called by the school administration that my kid got into an accident and here he is right now. My poor little boy. I stroke his hair.

"Ma'am we needed to have an operation right now , to put braces on his fractured bones"-the doctor said. An operation , then it means that it is that bad.

"Okay"

"I need you to sign some papers ma'am"

I took some papers from the nurses to sign it allowing my little one to have an operation. After that Marc was hurried into the operating room.

∆°∆°∆°∆°

The operation was finished , it would take months before the braces inside of Marc's leg can be taken off again. I am feeling horrible for my little kid , he got to experience this in this young age. I heard from nanny Gabriela that he stumbled suddenly while on the run because of his opponent from a higher grade. But we can't really blame kids right? Its just awful that this happened to mine. Marc was delivered into his private room and he is still unconscious.

"I brought us dinner ma'am"-Nanny Gabriela said bringing some paperbags of foods. Anna was settled on a chair beside Marc's bed. My eyes widen to realize something.

"Where's Marcus?"-I asked and Nanny Gabriela's eyes became wider too.

"Jesus! I forgot about that kid , I did not see him a while ago ma'am and I am already preoccupied of taking Anna as we followed the ambulance"-Nanny said

"Oh my god , where could he be?"

"I'm so sorry ma'am , I'm so--"

"No no. Its okay , its okay , I'll just go find him"-I said and took my purse with me

"You and Anna should eat already"-I said before going out of the hospital room

- - -

He wasn't at the school anymore , I tried to dial the number from the phone I've given him again but he wouldn't pick it up. I worriedly drive from the school into the nearby places he could be at and kept on checking everything for a sign of my pup. I also checked at the office if he went there , but he didn't. A lot of possibilities popped in my mind. I was near on driving into the police station or any broadcast station to file a missing record for my child when suddenly I spotted the town's plaza. There are a lot of kids playing around. He could be here right? I parked my car properly and went out of it , checking every kids , smelling the scent of my pup and there he is. I sighed in relief when I found him sitting in a bench by himself.

"Marcus!"-I called and he turned his gaze at me

"Mom!"

"Oh my god , you are just here all along I've been searching for you , I thought something bad happened to you"-I said cupping his cheeks as soon as I reached him , he flushed a little smile

"I'm fine , I just..I just got bored while waiting for Nanny Gabriela to be back , I did not make it when they rode the ambulance"-he said

"Its fine , its fine. Next time you call me right away wherever you are , you have a phone for goddess sake"-I said exasperatingly

"My phone is dead bat"-he said

"Well..that explained it"-I said and held him in the hand

"Come on let's go back to the hospital"-I said

"How's Marc?"-he asked softly

"He's fine now..but he got operated , and they put a steel braces inside his legs"-I said and his face crumpled as if feeling the pain.

"He just needed to rest"-I assure him and lead him out of the plaza.

- - -

I checked the bags once again to check if we packed enough for the next few days we are staying at the hospital.

"I'll just bring this out ma'am"-Nanny Gabriela said and I let her be. I pick up the books on the desks of the kids , but suddenly a piece of paper flew down. I pick it up and realized it was the paper I signed from Marcus. The thing is , the other space was still empty. Did he not asked Nanny Gabriela for a sign yet? I shook my head and inserted it on his book bag , maybe he forgot. After we settled everything , I already left the mansion , leaving it to Nanny Gabriela's care.

I focused myself on my PC as I did some works. Apparently I couldn't go to the office and Marc couldn't still walk using his leg , he don't also know how to use the support stick so I still needed to carry him whenever he need to go to the bathroom and everything. My poor little boy. I gazed at them as I heard the three laughing from something at the television. Marcus was sitting beside Marc on the bed , both leaning against the headrest whilst Anna was sitting between Marcus's legs , she was held by him very well to keep her from moving and touching Marc's leg accidentally. Isn't that adorable? But I glanced at my wrist watch.

"Opps , time to go to school Marcus , Anna"-I said putting away my PC and stretching out.

"Okay"-Marcus said and put Anna down. I waited for them to fix themselves and pick up their bag before they bid goodbyes to Marc.

"I'll go back baby , I'll just tell a nurse to watch you for a while"-I said

"Yes mom"

"Come on guys"-I said leading the other two into the door. They waved one last time before actually going out from the hospital room. We took the safe exit , away from the other rooms and went towards the parking area.

- - -

As soon as I dropped the kids into their school I bought some foods from the bakery first before I went back to the hospitals. I hope Marc can already be discharge soon , before their family day..we could not attend if Marc wasn't there. I was just outside the hospital room when my heart beats fast..I smelled the familiar scent of Citrus and Mint , that scent that I haven't smelled for months now. I took a gulp and peek inside the hospital room.

Archer.

He's talking intently with his son , stroking his hair. If I could smell his scent , I am sure he can smell mine. But he did not budge , he continued his conversation with Marc. I could not make out of what are they talking about , but I could see their expressions. Marc at first were just staring down at his blanket clutching it tight and having the hard expression on his face , while Archer is talking to him. Then after a while Marc stare at him and they exchange words now. Archer spoke with so much hope in his eyes. He waited for Marc to respond , and when he did , Archer breathed in relief. As if he had been holding his breath all this time. A smile spread across his face and he hugged his injured pup and kissed him on top of his head. My eyes connected to him when suddenly his gaze turned towards me. I break the stare first and walked back.

"Aveera!"-I stopped on my tracks when he held my arm

"What , are you done stalking us now and you already decided to show up?"-I asked turning around and crossing my arms in front of him. He scratched the back of his neck and smiled apologetically towards me

"You are not supposed to see me here..but our son bought me enough time until you arrived , he's harder than Marcus to talk to this time"-he said

"You also talked to Marcus already?"-I asked

"Yep , two days ago.."-he trailed

"You are with him there , at the park"-I said almost a statement and he nod. I sighed

"What did you talked to them about?"-I asked

"I just .. I just explained everything , I know they hated me because I hurt your feelings..they heard our quarrel the last time , I explained the real thing happening here..and I guess they understand , our children are real prodigies"-he said.

"Now what?"-I asked

"Now that I get to earn the kids' forgiveness , I guess mommy's next"-he said biting his lip

"But not here"-he said holding my hand and pulling me away

"Wait , Marc could not be alone in his room , he can't still use his leg"-I said

"Don't worry , I'll send someone to attend him"-he said continuing to drag me out

We stopped into a park nearby. There aren't still a lot of people around.

"So..how are you?"-he asked as we walked side by side

"I think you already know how am I doing , having Cobalt follow us around"-I said

"I still wanted to hear it from you , have you been well?"

"I'm fine , I'm clearly used of being away from my mate"-I said

"I'm really sorry , I don't know why am I like this , isn't mates are supposed to be sensitive towards each other? Isn't they supposed to be possessive and caring? But all I do is push you away and hurt your feelings..I'm--I'm stupid"-he said stopping and looking at his shoe

"But now I felt how you feel when I am the one who left you. When I rejected you seven years ago. It hurts so much when you left , my heart seems to tear apart inside , there's no night that I don't dream about you and howling your name all night , I feel devastated..you haven't even rejected me yet , I never knew how you survive when I rejected you. It must be more than that"-he said and his cheeks were tinted red after his confession. God , is he really blushing? He held my hand and stare at me directly in my eyes.

"Aveera , I mean it when I said that I love you , I mean it very well..I love you so much , and now I've already settled myself , I repented on my sins towards you , I am so stupid to be confused of my feelings at first , I wasted couple of years because of my stupidity , because I thought I could get away from the fate the moon goddess planned for us , but I was a fool , the deity had plan me a happiness and supplied me a way of contentment but I refuse to accept it. Now I've paid for it , I know the payment wasn't enough. But I don't want to waste time anymore , our children isn't getting younger now..and I doesnt want to be away from you again , please accept me again in your life , and let me make everything right , let's start again"-he said. I smiled , a warm one.

"Yeah , I guees it's really time to settle everything now. Even us were not getting younger"-I said and he pulled me into a hug

"Thank you Aveera , despite of everything..I guess the moon goddess is always right , she gave me a mate who could straighten me up it is you that I needed to have. Without you I'm ruined. I do not regret making you a substitute Luna for a while , if that does not happened , I mustn't still realize what I'm losing ti'l now"-he said. I sighed and rested my head on his chest.

"Fine..make everything right from now on , I love you too..I guess , it doesn't leave , it's still here since forever , I never looked in any other man besides you"-I said he raised my head and I'd so nothing but so much bliss in his face , his lips were stretched into a big smile. I meet the fiery gaze of his silver orbs and with that , he lean down towards me and his lips meet mine. The kiss is slow and passionate , it leaves tingles down my body , in every cells , in my heart..
