It has been another 2 weeks of dead animals being brought on our doorstep. My stomach is now sporting a small bump and honestly, I don't like the pregnancy. I'm grateful to be creating life but my body aches, I feel tired, I feel week.

Jonathan, Adonis, and my father had taken charge of the pack. The girls smother me and my nephew has been staying with me as Adonis handles most of everything.

"Lala," he calls me that because 'eye-luh' is so difficult for him, the fuck?

"Yeah Bub?" He looks at my stomach as we eat some goldfish.

"Are you going to love the baby more than me?" He asks and I choke on a fish. "Uh, yeah Bub, but only a little a little bit!" I exclaim and he purses his lips. Jeez, okay Jax.

"I don't think I'm going to like it very much," he tells me with a bitter face. "Aw but you will always be my Bubba," I say truthfully and he smiles. "Thank you," he mutters before giving me a hug. "Aw, all that cuteness is making me want to vomit," I hear Jax yell and I look at him.

"Way to ruin the moment loser," he rolls his eyes and he takes some of my goldfish, excuse me?

"Dad, can we go to the rainbow park?" Nick asks, the rainbow park? "It's the park in the city, it has colored cement," Jax says as he picks up Nick. "Mom and I will take you, you want to go with us Aella?" He says and I shake my head. "Adonis won't let me out," I tell him and I roll my eyes.

"You know I did the same thing with Elsa," he reasons and I glare at him. "I'm an Alpha, she isn't, I have responsibilities!" I exclaim and both boys look at me with a blank look. I cross my arms, "Fine, I hope you enjoy the fresh air," I told them before walking towards the elevator.

"And be careful! You know, with what's going on," I add, and Nicky waves at me with a smile. "We're always careful, right Nick?" Jax asks his son and Nick shook his head no. I walk in the elevator and I wave at them. "Seriously, be careful," the doors close and it takes me upstairs.

Something was wrong, I could feel it, I hear a sob and I rush downstairs. "What's going on?" I ask my family as I see Elsa on the floor sobbing. "They took him!" She cries out and my mate rushes out of the office. I grab Elsa's hand and she shows me what happened.

Andy, Stella, my brother, and Nick were at the park, Elsa joins the picture. All of a sudden 5 guys attacked them. They stab Jax with something silver and one guy runs off with Nick.

I let go of her and I stumble into Adonis' arms. I let him see what I have seen, "Where's Jax? Where's my brother?" I growl out as tears fill my eyes. "Andy took him to the pack hospital, Aella please, we need to find my baby," Elsa begs and I look at my dad before looking at Elsa one more time.

"I'll find him," I promise her and she sobs, my mother, comforting her lovingly. My mate and dad follow me in the office, dad closes the door and I sit down. "Zane had tried to trace the number Jacob kept on texting me from and he found nothing. Daddy, this is new, what if he does something to Nick?" I whisper and my dad shakes his head.

"He wouldn't dare," he growls out, Adonis places a hand on my shoulder. "Doesn't he crave attention? Has he sent you anything?" He asks and I open my computer, seeing a new email from an anonymous person.

"What is it?" Dad asks me and I gulp as I check it out, both of them looking over my shoulder. It was a picture of Melanie, only this time she was older, she was dirty, and Nick was sitting right next to her.

I hear my mate start laughing on his way to my cell. I pick up my head and I sadly look at him. "Mel, look who I brought," Jacob taunts as he pushes an unfamiliar boy into my cell. My heart broke while looking at him, "Did you kidnap him too?" I ask in a raspy voice. I don't remember the last time I had water.

I walk towards the little boy, "It's okay, come here," I whisper towards him and he looks at me. Something about him looks familiar, I can't quite place my finger on it. He doesn't look a day over 3 and he has some scratches here and there.

"Does he look like someone you know?" Jacob asks while sporting a smirk. I slowly shake my head and he chuckles darkly. "He's a spitting image his father," he eggs, and I look at him. Who could it be?

"Kid, tell her your name," the little boy rubs his eyes. "N-Nicholas Xavier," he stutters out and I look at Jacob with wide eyes. "That's Jax's son," he says and he hits the bar. One of his members took a picture of both of us and I hear Nicholas whimper.

"Catch up with each other, you have all the time in the world," Jacob said as he walks away. I look at my nephew, those brown eyes, my brother's eyes.

"Nicholas," I start and I bend down to his height. "I'm your aunt," I say as tears fill my eyes. He shakes his head, "Lala is mine auntie," he says and my heart broke. "Aella?" My voice broke out and he nods. I miss my brother and sister, I only hope they feel the same.

"I'm your dad's other sister, Melanie," I said and he sits down. I sit beside him, "I'm your aunt Melanie," I repeat, "Have they told you about me?" I ask him and he slowly shakes his head. I don't blame them, I have been gone a long time.

"How is you dad and...Lala?" I ask and he smiles. "Dad took me to the park but the bad guys attacked us, they hurt daddy and they took me away. Lala has a baby in her tummy!" Aella's pregnant, she's probably hating it right now.

"Can I call you Nick?" I ask him politely and he nods. "Lala calls me Bubba, I always will be," he says happily and I smile sadly. She used to call me that when we were little.

"You can call me Mel, are you tired?" I ask and as if on cue, he yawns. I gently pick him up and I rub his back, trying to put him to sleep.

I can only hope my family is ready for what's to come.
