Ways of the Heart Chapter 1

CHAPTER 1

"So.. Why did you leave?" I asked Nick as i stood outside his cell.
"Because being married to a bitch like you was hell." He said and i cringed.
"Ok." I said and looked up as the door opened and in came our eight year old daughter Rose. Rose was just like her name. Tho she had black hair like me and green eyes like her father she had rosey red lips and she was beautiful
"Mom uncle Ryan wants....." She stopped and stared at Nick.
"Whis he?" She asked and I smiled a small smile.
"Nobody.." I said and looked at Nick who's eyes were locked on his daughter. Our daughter.
"Rose." He whispered. She looked at him then looked at me.
"Hes my father." She said and i nodded.
"Hmm.." She said and nodded at me then left.
"What do you teach them? To hate me?" HE growled pulling at his chians,
"No.. I teach them to know how they feel. To know.. I know what they feel." I said and smiled a small smile.
"How?" He hissed.

"Rose feels hurt. And lost. She lost her father when she was two and now she comes here and your chained to a wall." I said dipping inside her head. I felt bad but hey I'm her mom. I have a right.
"I'm only chained to a wall because of there bitch of a mother." He said and I opened the cell door and walked up to him.
"I set you free.. I loved you. I carried your children and I'm a bitch?" I asked shocked.
"You set me free because you imprinted on me." He said and I cringed away from his words. Because in a way they were true but yet they wernt.
"Yes." I said and there was a yell from upstairs. Sam was yelling.
"MOM!!!! SAMS THROWING ANOTHER FIT!!!" Rose yelled down to me.
"Ok." I said and walked out of his cell and locked it. I then walked up the steps. My son was sitting in the middle of the floor with Amber his cousin and Seth was standing with Rose. Ashley was running down the hallway Ryan was fallowing her and Abble held there youngest daughter Beth.

"Whats going on?" Asked Ryan.
Amber was 5. Seth was 9. Ashley was 3 and Beth was three mouths old.
"Sams throwing a fit." Rose said looking at her uncle.
"Ah." Ryan said nodding.
"Yes." I said and they all looked up at me shocked to see me.
"Hello sister." Ryan said with a smile.
"MAMA!!!" Sam yelled and ran to me. I picked him up and messed up his blonde hair. He had my eyes. With just a hint of the green Nick had.
"Hey baby." I said and he was silent resting his head on my shoulder.
"Mamas boy." Rose said. I gave her a look and she looked away.
"Rose lets go play." Seth said and grabbed Roses hand and my red haired nephew ran off with my black haired daughter.
"Mama who's the man down stairs?" Asked Sam picking up his head.
"The man down stares is your daddy." Abby said finally joining our little group.

"Mama?" Asked Sam and I glared at Abby. So did Ryan.
"Yes hes your daddy." I said and looked at my son. His little face confused and then i did the one thing I hadn't wanted to do. I set my son down and opened the door.
"Would you like to meet him." I asked and Sam nodded.
"Ok." I said and made my way down. Sam fallowed and looked around in the darkness, His eyes locked on his father chained to a wall.
"Mama?" Sam asked and Nicks head snapped up.
"Who are you?" Asked Nick looking at Sam. I closed my eyes and drifted closer to Nick.

"Mom." Sam said and I looked back at him at the bottom of the stairs.
"Yes?" I asked resting a hand on the door.
"Hes not my father." Sam said then turned and left. I was shocked. My eyes fallowed my youngest child as he disappeared.
"Hmm I take it that was my son?" Nick asked and I looked at Nick.
"Yes." I said with a sigh.
"He has your eyes." He said and I nodded,
"Who's he more like?" Nick asked looking at me.
"Hes as mean as me and he..... Hes as strong as you." I said and touched the scar on my belly. The scar that Sam had given me when he was born. He was a very strong little boy. More vampire then wolf.
"Oh." Nick said and I saw his eyes close for a moment.
"She's like you." I whispered softly.
"What?" He asked.

"Your daughter. Shes just like you." I said and he watched me.
"How?" He asked and I smiled.
"She doesn't take no for an answer. She hates it when people say shes wrong. She never backs down and she dose her own thing." I said and Nick looked at me.
"Shes like you also." He said and I looked at him.
"How." I asked shocked and confused.
"She's beautiful. Shes strong and she knows how to fight." He said and I narrowed my eyes at him.
"She our daughter so she should know how to fight." I said and he sighed.
"Sit I must tell you a little about me." He said and i was confused but I did as he said.
"I was created during the pharos and all that stuff.. It was hard where I lived. To know what it was like is to live in those times. I get my human life confused with my vampire life but I remember my mother and my father. I remember my brothers and my sisters. I remember them all." He said staring off into space.

"The person who changed me was my great great great grandmother. She was to have died when she was 26. Nobody had known what had happened to her. Her body was never found. But when I was 19 my grandmother came and she offered me immortality and a life time at her side. I took it." He said and I started at him.
"My grandmother hates wolfs. They killed her maker.. Some people are very happy when there makers are killed because it means they are free but my grandmother wasn't happy. She didn't like not having a protector. That's why she made me. See when you have a maker you have to listen to everything they say. So if she tells me to leave I leave if she says kill I kill." Nick said and I understood. I understood why he left.
"She told you to leave?" I asked and he slowly nodded.
"I had to listen to her. She said to me one night at our window that I must leave. That to be in love with a wolf was like her not being my maker and my grandmother. She told me to leave you." He said and I opened the door and walked in kneeling in front of him.

"Where is she?" I asked him and his eyes flashed.
"I cant tell you." He said and i looked at him.
"Do you want her dead?" I asked and he stared at me for a moment.
"Yes." He said and I nodded.
"She told you that you couldn't tell didn't she." I asked and he nodded again
"I'm going to brake into your mind." I said and I didn't wait for his answer. I was in his mind and searching threw it. But before I got to the answer I stopped. I looked at what I saw. He had someone else. A female vampire who he was mated with in the vampire village. He did not love her but she was safe human and was pregnant. I brushed it off and found where his maker was.
"When I'm done with your maker I'm ganna get your vampire." I said standing up. He was shocked.
"How did you find out about her?!" He asked and I smiled a slow smile.

"When you think about something its in your mind forever. When you live threw something its there forever. I saw her. I saw everything. I know where she is and I know where your grandmother is." I said and he slowly nodded
"She's pregnant. You cant kill her." He said finally.
"I have killed for lower reasons then caring the baby of My husband." I said and he flinched.
"I'm not yours." He said. I crouched in front of him.
"You took the sarcret vow. You went threw the posses and you are mine as I am yours. I have right to kill her. Its in the rules. Your my mate and you will be for 1,000 years. There is no breaking it." I said. I smiled.
"The vow? Ha. What a load of crap." He said rolling his eyes.
"I don't care. We have two children and I have the right. Its in my blood to kill someone who threatens me or mine." I said and he growled at me.
"She's mine." HE said and I laughed,

"Your a fool. To be your means to be faithful. Do you really think that baby's yours?" I asked and laughed again.
"Its mine." He said close to growling again.
"Guards!" I yelled and they all came.
"Yes?" The head guard asked.
"Call my mother tell her I want one of her people. A hafe vampire named Mary." I said and the guard nodded and left.
"I'll show you its not yours." I said and smiled at him. I stood up and went to be with my children before I set to kill his maker....
