Annabelle

*5 Years Later*

I was chasing my little rugrats around the gardens, trying to catch them. I eventually collapsed on the grass and pretended to play dead. I heard the stomping of feet coming back in my direction and tried not to smile when I felt them sit next to me.

"Mommy! Look what you did Will! You killed Mommy!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Nu-uh."

When they were least expecting it I opened my eyes and 'rawrred" before they could runaway I grabbed them around the waist and started tickling them. They started laughing and fell on the ground. I stopped tickling them and jumped to my feet.

"Can't catch me!" I screamed and stuck my tongue at my adorable five year olds.

"Evie let's get mom!" William whispered even though I could hear it perfectly.

"Mom we're gonna get you!" Genevieve said chasing after me.

I didn't run too fast,but was suddenly lifted up around the waist and carried bridal style.

"Yay! Dad got Mom!" William shouted.

Genevieve was snickering and laughing next to William. I started pouting. And I pretended to sniffle.

"You ruined my fun." I said to Logan. He only smiled lovingly.

"Don't fret love, i'll make it up to you later." Logan kissed me on the lips and winked. I smiled knowing perfectly what he meant. William made a face.

"Eeew dad! Girls have cooties!" Genevieve glared at him.

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

"Nu-uh."

"Uh-huh."

Both their eyes started glowing. William's a bright blue and Genevieve's a bright green. I new they were getting mad. Logan set me down and sat on the bench and watched me in amusement. I stood there and called to my wolf, Isabelle. She came to the surface and I felt my eyes shift silver.

"Children." Isabelle said with power,they looked over immediately and their eyes dimmed down.

Genevieve's turned their normal light grayish and green and William's turned back to their baby blue. Isabelle gave me back control and I put my hands on my hips.

"No, fighting." I said.

"Sorry, Momma." They said simultaneously. I smiled and crouched to the ground and held my arms open. They giggled and both tackled me in a hug. I fell to the ground and we all started laughing.

Logan picked up Genevieve and placed her over his shoulders. I stood up and grabbed William's hand.

"Ready?" Logan nodded.

We walked over to the black limo and got ready to head to Bryce's house. He and his mate, Carol had bought it three years ago. They lived in the palace for awhile,but after Carol got pregnant they moved out. The year after they met at my wedding they got married as well. Me and Carol became best friends and always come and see each other with the kids. Carol had two kids with Bryce. Two boys. William always loves to play with them. They are three and two, he's always gentle. He likes to play 'truck' with them. Genevieve always plays with some dolls that Carol has there for her. She usually grabs one of them and comes and sits on my lap while I talk to Carol. Logan and Bryce always grab a couple of beers and go play pool in Bryce's 'man cave.' Carol and I laughed when he brought up the idea not to long ago. Now off course Logan wants one.

William was sitting next to Logan while Genevieve was sleeping peacefully on my lap. When the doorman opened the door I carefully maneuvered Genevieve so her legs were around my waist and I was carrying her. She wasn't all that heavy considering i'm a werewolf and can carry her wait much easier. She stirred a bit, but placed her head in the crook of my neck and fell back asleep.

When we walked inside I said a hushed hello to Carol not wanting to wake up Genevieve. Carol was short and slender. She had fiery red hair and hazel eyes. Her hair was straight and in a bob. She had freckles that started on her nose and spread over her cheeks. She was definitely perfect for Bryce and she had a temper when you struck a nerve. So,when Bryce got out of line she usually yelled, hit him a bit, then gave him the silent treatment. She was the best sister-in-law ever!

Carol and I chatted for a bit and when William got sleepy we decided it was time to go home. I said goodbye to my brother and Carol before we left. The driver opened the door for us and we got in quietly. Logan was now holding Genevieve who fell asleep again and William was sprawled out on my lap sleeping as well. Logan was holding my hand and kissed me on the cheek.

The moment we got home I found myself tired as well. We walked up the many stairs to our corridor. I changed my room not long ago and made it me and Logan's room. My Mom and Dad and other Mom and Dad moved went on a vacation to the Bahamas, they visit often but loved it there so much they all actually moved there. So my parents old room is now Genevieve's and Bryce's old room is now William's. All the rooms on this level are the exact same size so I know they'll grow to appreciate their rooms when they're older. I put William to bed and he immediately fell into a deep slumber. I gave him a kiss on the cheek before walking into Genevieve's room and giving her a kiss on the cheek also. Logan walked into William's room, while I waited patiently by our door. He came back and grabbed my hand. I walked inside and went to go get into my pj's.

When I came back out in a silk night gown Logan's was already laying on the bed in boxers. I snuggled in next to him and he wrapped an arm around my waist. He leaned down and gave me a kiss full of love and passion. I knew i'd never stop loving Logan and our wonderful family he gave me. I kissed him back with as much passion knowing he loves me back. And just thinking that I couldn't wait to live the rest of my life with him.
