GoodReadI couldn't believe she had actually chere under the assumption we were just going to hand over our children and let her take them from us, never able to see them again. "It isn't up to you. I don't understand what you're not getting. I'm here to collect your children, and the four of you cannot stopfrom doing so." Kara was issuing a challenge.
One that I will face head on if I had to.
I may have just woken up, but there was no way I would allow this woman to cin here and tellshe was taking my children away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChildren I had only gotten a few months to spend twith. Children who Ivy, my mate, hadn't even properly been able to spend twith because of her current situation.
God knows what will happen when she wakes up and sees that so much thas passed.
"Look, there has to be something, stype of agreement that we can cup with. Something that Odin will make an exception for. Give us time. At least let us spend the first eighteen years of their life with them, and then by that point, when they're adults, if they need to go there, then so be it." My response made her hesitate, her fingers running over her jawline as she seemed to ponder over what I had said. "That might possibly work. From what the prophecy says, the children won't cinto their powers properly until they turn eighteen." "Talk to him then. See what he says. See if he would make this deal with us. Give us until they turn eighteen." I was all but begging her to agree, and after a moment of silence, she nodded.
"Very well. I will be back in a few days with my answer. Until then, you may continue to have your brief family reunion, and hopefully, Ivy will join you soon." I felt a sense of relief was overthe moment Kara turned and made her way from our home. We were safe for now, and hopefully, Odin would agree to what I asked. Give us time... that was all that I wanted.
"Was she fucking serious?" Hale said softly as he stared out the window.
"It doesn't matter right now. At least she's gone." Turning my attention to my brothers, they stood staring at me.
"What the fuck did you just do?" James whispered.
"What? I just made sure she didn't take our kids." "Yeah for now!" he screamed at me, jumping to his feet with his fists clenched at his sides. "How the fuck could you offer that and without Ivy even being awake!" "We don't even know if she will ever wake up!" I snapped back as I moved from where I was sitting toward the stairs. I had nothing else to say to them. In the end, I was doing what I had to, to make sure that I didn't lose my children.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf he agreed, it would give us eighteen years to try to find a way out of the deal. To try to change their minds so that our children didn't have to go.
Kara hadn't been lying when she said we couldn't stop her.
If she had really wanted to take
them, she wouldn't have cto speak with us in the first place. She would have taken them when we were sleeping, and we wouldn't have been able to stop it.
Deep down, I think her coming to speak with us was her way of saying she didn't agree with Odin. She hoped we could give her something Odin would end up agreeing to t was just a shshe couldn't cout and say that to begin with.
Yet, knowing this, I couldn't stop thinking about what James said.
I had made the offer while Ivy wasn't even present, and I could only hope he wouldn't hawhen she woke up. I didn't want to start things off wrong again. X
