For the rest of the day, Ragnar and I didn't speak to each other unless it had something to do with Jax. I still knew he was right but I didn't want to tell him that. I wanted to find my parents but I didn't want to put my son in danger to do it.

"Found a place to stop for at least tonight. There are no Delfunies in our around this place." Ross said, jumping back in the van with Richard behind him. Alex quickly turned the van on and followed Ross' instructions on how to get where we're going. I was laying across the trunk when I heard Jax start crying. I sat up and felt my way to his seat.

"What's wrong?" I asked. Ragnar was already calming him down, trying not to wake up Lily.

"He needed a diaper change." He answered, not looking at me. I just nodded and went back to lay down. I stopped as I was about to lay back down and looked back at Ragnar. He's been taking care of Jax this whole trip. He needs a break. I stood up and slowly made my way back up.

"Hey Ragnar, if you want you can go lay down in the back. I'll sit with him for a while." I offered. He looked back at me and smiled a small smile.

"Is that as close to an apology as I'm going to get?" Again, he was right, I was being a child about the whole thing. I didn't want to admit he was right even though I knew he was.

"Take it or leave it." He laughed a little and looked down at the baby.

"I will take it and in return, I'll apologize as well. I shouldn't have yelled at you. I'm sorry." I smiled as I climbed back in the seat and laid my head on his shoulder. I felt myself smile as I fell asleep. 


When I woke up, the guys were sleeping outside and I was laying across the bench seat with Jax on the floor in front of me. I sat up and started rubbing my eyes. I noticed that my eye sight was a little better. I was shock as I blinked a few times just to be sure. I could see more than just color blubs. I could actually make out Jax's face. My vision still wasn't perfect but it was getting better again.

Ever since that night when Lucian kicked me in the head about a month ago, I haven't been able to see much. The doctor said my vision would never return and it would never be what it was before but this was hope that it would. I may be able to see again.

I looked down and Jax was awake, looking at me. I smiled as I saw that his eyes were my shade of blue, extremely light. I pulled him out of his chair and say him on my lap. He was almost two months old and he was already smiling, laughing, standing, rolling over, and my personal favorite, unbuckling his car seat. Ragnar was right when he said Delfunie children mature faster than humans.

My attention quickly went outside when I heard someone walking around. I looked out the window and all the guys were still asleep. I turned my head to see someone coming out of the woods. They were defiantly Delfunie. I looked to the front seat to see Alex sleeping with Maia on his chest.

"Alex." I yelled as loud as I could. "Alex." He wasn't waking up. Damn it. I found a rattle sticking out of one of the diaper bags, I grabbed it and looked out the window to see the Delfunie getting closer. I threw the rattle and hit Alex on the head. He jerked awake and turned to yell at me but I stopped him by pointing outside.

"Give me the baby and go help them." He did as I said. I put Maia in her seat and Jax in his. I watched as Alex tried to get the Delfunie's attention off the guys. I looked at Ross and saw a pile of red curls sticking out of his sleeping bag. Lily. She must have had a nightmare. I had to help. I looked back at the babies, Maia was looking at me and Jax was fast asleep. I quickly opened the sliding door on the van and ran for the group. I ran as fast as I could to get to Lily. She's only six. I had to get to her.

Alex seemed to have the Delfunie's attention still as I got to the sleeping bag. Ross jumped as I landed on him.

"Get to the van. Ran." I instructed. I ran to everyone else and made sure they woke up. Ragnar quickly jumped in front of me and guided me back to the van. I looked up and saw the Delfunie.

"Stop!" I yelled. Everyone, including the Delfunie stopped fighting each other and looked at me. Even Ragnar who looked shocked. I stepped in front of him but he grabbed my arm, hindering me from going any further.

"Mavis, what is it?" He asked. I didn't look back, I just stared straight ahead. "Mavis, who is that?"

"This isn't...But how?" I took another step closer. "What is your name?" I asked. The Delfunie stopped moving and looked at me with the same brown eyes I see when I close mine. But that isn't possible. Delfunie have solid black eyes.

"Essy. My name is Essy." She answered, stepping away. I couldn't believe this. This was completely, one hundred percent impossible.

"Mavis, what is going on?" Ragnar asked again.

"She's...I think she's my daughter."


Once everything settled down and the children were safely locked in the van, I sat down Essy and began asking her questions. Ragnar watches her like a hawk.

"How old are you, Essy?" I asked.

"About a year." She answered. I looked up at Ragnar but he didn't take he's eyes off Essy.

"Okay, Do you remember if you had any human family? Parents? Anything like that? Did you have a name?" She looked confused but she still answered.

"I was told my parents were both human but they died. I was also told that I was dead when I was born but I changed and later woke up. So did all the others." She explained.

"The others?" Alex came out of the can then and stepped in front of me. "What do you mean 'the others'?" He asked. Essy started looking uncomfortable. I looked around and closed my eyes.

"Okay guys, go wait in the van. I want to talk to her alone."

"Mavis no. I am not leaving you alone with her." Ragnar said, taking a step forward. Essy got defensive and stood up.

"What? Are you afraid I may bite, human?" She hissed.

"Enough. Both of you. Ragnar go wait in the van with the others. Please. I'll be fine." He started arguing but I quickly stopped him. "I'll be fine." Finally, he nodded and went to the van. I turned back to Essy and smiled.

"What do you want from me?" She quickly asked. I just took a deep breath before answering.

"I need to know who you are, Essy. Do you remember your human name? Or maybe your parent's names?" She looked frustrated as she tried to think.

"All I know or remember rather, it that my name and my father's name were similar. That's it." I nodded.

"Daisy and David?" She looked shocked as her eyes met mine. She nodded.

"Yeah, I think that was it. How'd you know that?"

"David was my husband. He died before you were born. I'm your mother."  She quickly stood up and started to walk away. I was quick to stop her.

"Essy, wait. Don't leave. Please listen." She just kept walking. "Essy..."

"No, I won't. You left me with them. I thought you were dead. From the second I woke up until now, I had no idea you even existed. Now I'm supposed to be happy? No, leave me alone." She yelled at me. I couldn't let her leave. I just could. Daisy was right in front of me. I couldn't let her go.

"No, Daisy. Look, I didn't know you were alive. I thought you were dead too. I lost your father and you within two weeks of each other. I was completely heart broken and alone. Please, just stay." I pleaded. She just shook her head and turned to leave but I caught her shoulder and tried to stop her. She yelled out and whirled around. I felt a sharp pain on my hand and I pulled it back.

"Daisy, I cant let you leave. You're my daughter. You're not going anywhere." I could see she was getting upset and any human worth his salt know not to upset a Delfunie. The group all came running out, Ragnar talking my hand.

"Mavis, you're bleeding." I looked down at my hand and my eyes widened.

"She bit me."
