When I wake up F?anor and Rinus are staring down at me. "Cain she is awake" Rinus says softly. "Nova my love are you alright?" he hugs me tight. "What happened?" I ask. "You passed out, I think not eating much made the pain unbearable so your body went on sleep mode" Rinus says.

"Are my babies okay?" I begin tearing up.

"Yes though you were unconscious for two days, you were still having contractions.

We gave you something to get your strength up while you were under.

" Rinus explains. "Can I take something for the pain?

" I ask. "Um its too late, Cain said no for you while you were under" F?anor replies.

"Why the fuck would you do that?" I cry.

"They said since you haven't eaten they don't know how your body would react to something so strong" Cain says softly.

"Do you hate me? Why... how...am? I can't do this" I cry harder.

"Nova my love, you are the strongest person I know if anyone can do this its you" Cain kisses my temple.

"WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT IS THAT?!" I suddenly yell.

I then start cussing everyone the fuck out.

"It was so peaceful when she was under" Rinus sighs.

"Nova my love you need to save your energy to push when the time comes" Cain says when I take a break from cussing.

"Oh really?" I snap and begin cussing him out specifically.

"Brother you should have left her alone" Rinus scratches his head.

"Can we cut them out of her?" I hear Cain ask.

Only then I stop to catch my breath. "Yes lets do that" I whisper.

"She is not in danger" Rinus replies. He then lifts up the sheet to look at me.

"Oh Nova great news you can start pushing" Rinus smiles.

Out of energy I will myself to push when he instructs me.

I suddenly feel like something is wrong, very wrong.

"Rinus something is wrong with one of the babies" I breath.

"Um just keep pushing" he says. He then pulls Cain aside and tells him something, Cain looks at me with a mixture of fear and pain in his eyes.

"Whats wrong?" I ask. "Nothing my love you are doing a great job" he kisses my palm.

"The fuck you mean the cord is wrapped around one of them" I suddenly yell.

"You can't know that I was quiet" Rinus mumbles.

"I saw it in Cain's head now do something" I snap.

"The one who bares the mark can't see into the one who marked her" Cain whispers.

"Okay here is the first one" F?anor grabs the baby and blocks my view.

"Is the baby okay?" I ask. "Nova focus on pushing the second one" Rinus says softly.

"Cain!" I cry. "I will go check my love" he gets up.

I try to focus on pushing but it was hard I had ringing in my ears not sure why.

Then I hear a loud cry. "Oh thank the heavens, my love he is alright" Cain says.

"One more push" Rinus orders. I use the last of my energy to push and my vision blurs.

Everything sounds muffled but I hear another cry.

Oh good my babies are alright. "Nova!" Cain screams. "My pretty, you need to wake up so we can talk" a voice that doesn't belong to Cain tells me.

"I just wanna sleep for a little bit"I reply.

"Wake up pretty girl, I will not lose you again" he continues.

"What?" I ask. "WAKE THE FUCK UP!

" I then see a chilling figure running toward me.

"I'm wake!" I snap up. "My love you are alright!

Oh today has been trying" Cain cries and hugs me tight.

"What?" I ask. "Your heart stopped" Rinus states.

"Nova do not ever scare me like that" Alara pushes Cain away to hug me.

"Are you saying I was dead?" I ask. Rinus nods and then comes to hug me too.

"Why did you scream I'm awake?" Cain asks.

Fuck do I tell him Malachi made wake up?

"Malachi talked to you?" Cain growls. "He is just mad his pleading for you to stay with him didn't work" Rinus laughs a little.

"Malachi spoke to you?" F?anor looks worried.

"What did he say?" Ares asks. "Um can I see my babies?" I ask instead. "Oh Nova they are beautiful boys" Eve exclaims. She hands me one and then the other. "Hi my babies, I'm so happy you are here" I cry. One opens his eyes and looks at me, he had greyish blue eyes. "Hi Albie" I kiss his forehead.

"Hi Kairo" I kiss the other ones curly hair. "Cain look" I sob. "I know my love" he kisses my head. "Makes sense now, boy pregnancies are the hardest" Eve replies. "Two at once, I don't know how you did it Nova" she tears up. "But I am so proud of you" she continues. "Where is Indi?" I ask.

Tariq brings her in and she is smiling happily at me.

"Hi mamas look at your little brothers" I show her.

"This is Albie" I lift up the one with greyish blue eye and then the curly haired one "This is Kairo".

"Ma-ma" Idi replies. "I'm sorry what did she just say?

" I think my ears were deceiving me. "When you were under I brought Indi in to visit you and when you didn't answer her she cried and then angrily started saying ma-ma-ma".

"Awwh my baby said Mama before dada" I start crying again.

The next week was crazy having three babies. I tried to give them all have mama time by laying them in a row with Indi in the middle and engaging with them. Cain gave this work duties back to Rinus so he could spend time with us.

Today would be the first time I would bathe the boys.

"Nova you haven't told me what Malachi said to you" Cain says as I bathe Kairo.

"He said Nova lets run away and get married" I tease.

"That is not funny" Cain growls. "Fine he said:My pretty, you need to wake up so we can talk"then I said"I just wanna sleep for a little bit" and he said "Wake up pretty girl, I will not lose you again" and I said"What?

" and then he screamed"WAKE THE FUCK UP!

" and then I saw a chilling figure running toward me. "

"What does he mean he doesn't want to lose you?

" Cain snaps. "I woke up so I don't know.

But thats the part you are stuck on not that he wants to talk?

" I question. Cain says nothing. "Hand me Albie" I order.

"Hi my strong lil one" I coo. I found out Albie was the one who had the cord wrapped around his neck.

"Awwh that so cute he has a little heart shaped birthmark like.

.." I stop mid sentence. No cause that is just a coincidence right, like there is no way that.

.. "Nova are you going to finish your sentences or thoughts" Cain asks.

"Ares has the same birthmark in the same spot" I whisper. "Yes and?" Cain questions.

"I need to talk to Rinus can you go get him?" I ask Cain. "What can you not talk about with me?" he asks. "Go get Rinus, talk to no one on the way understand?" I ask. "Yes my Queen" he huffs. I lay my twins on the bed, Indi was with Alara so I didn't have to worry about freaking out infront of her.

We found that her teleporting people happened when my emotional state was all over the place.

"Nova you called?" Rinus walks in with Cain behind him.

"Can you explain twins to me" I ask. "I suppose" he stares at me and then begins.

"So hypothetically can someone have twins that have two different sperm donors?

" I ask. I phrased it like that because I needed Cain out of the loop for a bit. "What does that mean?" Cain questions.

"Yes" Rinus replies and then stares at the twins. "I will go get F?anor and you go get some of DNA". "What the hell is going on" Cain snaps. "I am just running a test brother" Rinus responds. "Are the twins okay" Cains face softens. "Yes its a simple test really" Rinus pushes me out the door.

"Cain watch the twins for a sec I will be back" I call.

The one time I actually needed Ares he was nowhere to be found.

I found my feet walked all the way down to the care-takers wing.

Knocking I waited patiently for an answer.

When nothing came I opened the door slightly "Ares?

" I whisper. Were those sex sounds? Was he?

"Hi beautiful!" Ares says from behind me.

"If you aren't having sex who is?" I question. Ares was so close to me I bumped into the door making it swing open. "Ares!" "Mother?!" "My Queen!" "Orson!" "Ares close the door! So sorry to interrupt" I turn and run up the stairs.

"I'm scarred for life Ares says as he tries to shake the image out of his head.

"Awwh do you want a hug honey" I open my arms. "You always know just what to say" he smiles.

As we hug I rub his back and subtly pull a strand of hair.

"Ares I gotta go, I am giving the twins a bathe" I say softly. "Can I see you later?" he asks.

"You will see me later" I kiss his cheek and run back to my room. Cain, F?anor and Rinus were all looking at the twins. I hand F?anor the strand of hair and he drops it in a liquid, he then cuts a strand from Albie's head and drops it in another. "They should be the same color" Rinus informs me.

The liquid turns dark blue in Ares beaker and the Albies turns dark blue.

"Can we do Cain?" I whisper. Rinus yanks a strand from Cain and F?anor repeats the process.

Albie's turns dark blue and Cain's beaker turns dark red.

"Can we do Kairo?" I mumble. Again we watch Cain's beaker turn red and then Kiaros turns red but with the half strand F?anor kept we watch as Ares beaker turns dark blue while Kairo's turns red.

"Fuck" I whisper.
