Mia's POV
7 years later...
Still no Lydia... or Wade for that matter. Not that I was counting down the day she'd be back...okay I was. But hey we didn't spend 60 something chapters of our lives fighting for our love to just end it on a balcony years ago.
Besides I didn't just loose Lydia over the last 7 years but Kendra suffered from a brain bleed they couldn't contain. Kendra's a bit more complicated because she always had a good bill of health, and the doctors are baffled at the discovery.
While being pregnant with Madison I went through a PTSD moment. She reminded me of losing Camille and Sebastian. After having Madison I didn't want anyone touching her. I was locked away in the room for days before I mentally broke myself out of it.
Madison's eyes were what made me not feel so scared, a gene she got from her father no less when I saw her eyes glow. I'm not sure if Camille and Sebastian are angels, because they never gave any signs.
To say the least Madison grew very fast and excelled at everything, thankfully her siblings never took it to heart given that their father is an angel. I do believe they got his patience, tenderness, and wisdom.
While Camille and Sebastian were very easy to pin point as good kids, Madison was well a wild card. Growing up she got into a lot of fights. Marc didn't understand it till I actually admitted that back in high school I was in a lot of fights.
Hey, Lydia wasn't the only one beating ass back then. But Madison is doing better now...
As of right now I just finished flipping through some pages,
"Hon it's your time to make dinner," I called out when I heard his flapping wings in the deathly silent mansion. Marc appears landing in front of the island between us. "What is it my dear?" I nodded towards the lonely kitchen, "You're time to cook," He gives me an enduring smile, "Sure after I take a shower," He winks at me,
He pushes himself off the counter; I spin the stool away from the island before sliding down off of it. "Marc..." I pulled my sweater back on the shoulder that it fell off, "Where are you going?" Knowing against my better judgment I saw his sly smirk. It intrigued me too much,
Like always I was swept off my feet, "Mia I'm taking a shower," He resumes taking off his shirt letting it down on the floor before walking through the large slide through door.
"Hon you do know you're heading outside right?" He walks through the tall trees on the rock tile path and looking beneath me I saw through the glass a peaceful stream leading behind him. I caught his eyes lock with mine. "Come," His voice was soft and kind.
Without another word I'm falling into step behind him as he leads me through the thin trees that lead to a surrounding a shower, no a waterfall shower. My hands cover my mouth, as I pause. "Is something wrong Mia?"
"I just forgot there was a shower out here, it's beautiful really." I say reaching over to the handle to turn it on. I pull off my shirt with ease not really with sexiness because...that's too much of a hassle and I really want to use this shower. Finally tossing it at Marc he smirks at me. We just look at each other with smiles.
It was like he moved at the speed of light when he appeared in front of me, bent at the knee as he wraps his arms around my legs lifting me as I wrap myself around him as he pushes me against the backboard.
Not only do I shriek but I kissed Marc's shoulder as I just get soaked in his arms. He puts me down at one point and I hurry to get out of the rest of my clothes. He was toned to perfection, not too much just enough for my liking. My eyes roamed over his forearms that were strong and I found myself admiring the faint happy trail.
"Now you need to be clean Mia we need to take extra precaution now that I'm home and going to make sweet beautiful and amazing love to you Mia." I couldn't believe I'm married to this man, he was gorgeous. Simply put, I'm the luckiest girl around. His facial features looked exasperated, he looked so sad like a sad puppy. Holding his face with care, "What's wrong?"
He shakes his head, "I just want to say thank you. Thank you for listening to Lydia, thank you for bumping into my life. Thank you for waking me up to such beauty, thank you for giving me three beautiful children." His lips land on mine, as I melt into the kiss I pull away giggling like an idiot.
Seeing the water run over his body stirred something tight in my stomach,
I couldn't escape the wince that appeared on my face, "Mia seriously now what is wrong?" His arms hold me still for support as I wrap my arms around his waist as I was much shorter than him and my head lies just below his chest. "After saying something like that how would you want me to react, I'm basically jelly in your hands Marc."
Stepping closer to him, "Just hold me," I whisper when he moves his arm around from me to slide under my chin, "I can do you one better," His lips land on mine in a rush and thrill my body exploded and was going haywire.
Here I was kissing him back, damn if only I could remember everything and make him that much happier. "I love you Mia," he mummers against my neck as he travels down further. I push him further within the water as it hits both of our bodies. "I love you Marc,"
Later in the day...
I watched her grab her keys while eating an apple across the counter from me, "So I was invited to a party by Cory and his idiot jock friends." I placed down the coffee before telling her she should go, and that it would be a lot of fun.
"Well then I'll go for like 2 seconds just to see what it's like, and if I don't like it then I'm leaving." She demands and I giggle at her decision. Camille grew to be a beautiful, sweet and smart 17 year old.
Top of her class and is a friendly person but is shy in some ways. She has my brown eyes and long hazel brown hair and she's tall like her father already 5' 10 in height. But what made Camille so beautiful in my eyes is her love for her younger siblings.
She was fine knowing that her younger siblings were angels because just a few minutes ago I felt the same energy flow through Marc run through Sebastian when I cut myself while making a sandwich. He was shocked himself. All the times I hurt myself he could've helped me, but Marc explained to his knowledge that it may take longer for boys. For Madison is was there the day she kicked in my womb.
Anyway, Camille thought it was the coolest thing when I was pregnant with Madison. Because my stomach glowing at times, and if I had a cut or something I would heal instantly. And whenever Camille had a cut or something I could heal her as well. Sadly, now I don't have those powers but it was nice when I did.
Another thing I love is how she was never jealous of them. She just loves her brother and sister with the most love and takes care of them in every way she can...
Talking about my son he came into the large open kitchen tripping over himself. "Sebastian are you okay?"
"Yea mama I just was rushing, you have a great day I love you." He pushes back his cute messy mop of hair. To come over and hug me tightly, even kissing me on the cheek. I felt the strong wave of energy flow through. "I love you Sebastian,"
"I love you more mama," As we break apart I see Madison she recently turned 15. She goes to grab a granola bar from the cabinet. She comes over to hug me tightly as well. "I love you Mom." At times my kids overwhelmed me with their affections. Because that's when Sebastian and Camille both join in on the hug.
"Guys, remember she's human." Marc said and they slowly let me go. Madison and Sebastian looked so sad. "We didn't hurt you did we?" I shake my head smiling at them. "No you could never hurt me. I know that."
I kiss their foreheads. "Now go to school before you're late." Watching them leave in Camille's Mercedes Benz I pulled my robe closer as I moved off the stool and tidied up the kitchen. Marc quickly kissed me before going to his study.
Suddenly there's a loud booming voice from the front door, immediately I ducked. People don't come up to your door anymore, "Knock! Knock! Mia open up! It's Wade!" Slowly I approach the door to have it swing open.
"Wade what-" He has the biggest smile on his face as he engulfs me in a bear hug. I squealed as his strong laugh echoes through the house. "Wade what are you doing here?" He puts a hand up and that silences me.
"I know where Lydia is."
"Yea at the Boston cemetery." I say easily. He blows that off literally, "Mia don't insult me like that. You know I went to Madrid to get Adrian, and Lydia took him."
Well...now I'm not sure what to do. "I zeroed her down...and Adrian." I patted his arm with a smile but I was conflicted. I didn't want Wade to find Lydia until much later, sure find Adrian but who knows what anger he has built up for Lydia.
"Where's your hubby? I wanna tell him the good news too." He tells me rubbing his hands together. I call for Marc and soon enough they talk for a while, as I go into the kitchen to fix some lemonade.
I heard Wade's combat boots hitting the floor following after Marc's. "I'm glad you found Marc Mia, after all these years I know I haven't seen your children but I know Marc is taking care of you. And I know Lydia is thankful for Marc," I look at Wade after the mention of Lydia's name.
"So you aren't mad at Lydia?" Wade goes quiet for a second there and I glance over at Marc unsure what I stepped on. I gain no help from Marc when he looks the other way. "I'm pissed but the determination to grab my son is greater than any feelings I still have for Lydia."
Wade is even quicker to change topics after that. "Is it true what happened to Kendra?" And I nod sadly at the thought of her.
"Are we really shocked...sorry." I nod agreeing because he had a lot of enemies just not us but other people. It was my turn to change topics as I swallow the last sip of lemonade. "I want you to see pictures of my kids."

Wade's POV
I hate how it took me so long to return home to see Mia, but I'm glad I did given she's the only person I'm related left in the world. I'll make sure to be around more once I get Adrian back. I keep replaying what it will be like to see Lydia again.
I left a few hours later, as I was on the road pulling up a private air strip for my plane. In my wallet I had taken out a photo, looking over it my eyes were stuck on hazel brown ones.
Lydia Brooks
Hurt was passed between us, but what I did putting a circle into a box was damaging. Lydia can't be contained by walls or boarders the reason why she travels and takes cases all over the world. She doesn't want to be anything else, that was her life...I took that away from her.
She's only reacting the only way she knows how. And I hate her for it, but I also hate myself as well. Boarding the plane, I tuck the picture of Lydia laying in the sand in black shorts and tank top. So beautiful that time we spent together after Mom died, Mia was off taking to Marc.
I see a folder set in front of me, it was another mission. A trail to a well-covered target. It had in detailed words where I would start.
"White Fang Pack? It's a pack of werewolves, well not just werewolves but...hybrids, element wolves, and alphas female and male. A super pack and it's a huge island off of Cuba."
I tossed the folder in the other seat and snuggled into the seat. Let me catch some zzz's I guess finding Lydia will have to wait. Until then Lydia, I'll find you. I always do,

A/N: The End...
I just wanna say from the bottom of my heart I love you readers, thank you for sticking around. And if this cast was actually the cast I think they'd love you too! From Lydia, Jake, Mia, Marc, Anita, Wade... Kendra and Nolan. And a special appearance from Rosemary herself! Lol,
Kendra and Nolan (may they rest in peace, especially Nolan)...
Lucy (may she rest in peace) and Gwen (Her Lesbian Lover)...
To Rosemary Avery Jackson AKA Rose Avery.
I think I wrapped up all loose ends, (Lisa and Melissa moved on to other jobs since Mia and Marc downsized their house and living arrangements).
But...
What happens to Lydia now that Wade knows where she is? How did Lydia and Adrian escape from Wade on that Beach in Madrid? How is Adrian coping with things, how is Lydia handling everything? What happens when they get to the pack, does Lydia have a new love interest? Should Jake come back? What about Adrian? All these questions?!
Read all about it in this spin-off book. It's posted right now! Go read it!
"LYDIA".
You were last seen bleeding out on a sandy beach in Madrid. You were last heard of hunting down the very son you left while traveling the 7 seas. And luckily you escaped the clutches of a very determined man who's after your head.
You've been on the run with your kid for 7 years. And he's hot on your tail, hunting you down like the IRS, the ex-husband of your nightmares. Because his soul died the second you left that beach, he's no longer the same. He's a top notch assassin out for blood.
Is there anything more dangerous than that?
Because despite keeping up your skills, you've been a proud mom raising a kid for the last 7 years. You haven't been fighting monsters and slaying dragons, more like checking homework and discipline.
So what does a Mom, Super Assassin, Renowned Baby Surgeon do when faced with a blood thirsty Assassin straight out of retirement? Does she run or fight?
Will they survive each other's rage? Because Lydia barely lived after the stabbing. Wade barely has kept it together losing her again...
