Chapter 25: twenty three

3 years later

Walking up in the morning and seeing the world was something Jade was thankful for. It had been

three years since she gained her eye sight and she didn't miss any moment to cherish the blessing or

take it for granted.

Getting out of the bed, she walks into the bathroom attached to the room. Doing her normal morning

business she comes out of the bathroom. An instant smile travels her face as she her eyes catch the

sight of the small figure siting up on the small bed or crib.

Walking towards the crib, with the smile still on her face she watches as the tiny figure sat inside the

crib, with their back facing towards Jade, as they played with the soft toys that they went to sleep with

in the night.

"Hey" Jade says so she could capture the person's attention, which she managed to do successfully.

A smile graces their face as they turn their face towards Jade, their blue-green eyes sparkling as they

watch Jade.

"Mama" standing up on their crib, the tiny figure raises their hands up, showing her that they wanted to

be picked up. Which she gladly does.

Lifting them into her arms, she smiles as they wrap their arms around her neck.

It's been two and a half years since she had given birth to her baby. he was her lifeline and the person

that kept her going. With midnight black hair and blue-green eyes he was a looker.

Adonis Romano was her two and a half year old son and her world. She loved him to death and would

protect him at all costs with her life.

"Come on, we need to get ready. Don't you want Aunty Scarlett's cookies?" She asks him knowing how

much he loved Scarlett's baked cookies.

She watched as he bounced up and down in excitement, while she carried him to the bathroom so she

could get him ready.

After bathing him and dressing in his winter clothes along with a small beanie on his head. Since it was

December and it had already started snowing. She gets ready herself afterwards, leaving Adonis to

play with his toys.

▪

She locks her apartment with her keys, turning to the side she watches as Adonis giggles softy as a

snowflake lands on his small button nose. A small smile plays on her lips as she watched him.

"Come on" extending her hand so that she could his tiny ones in hers, even though he was just a

toddler he was adamant on walking, sometimes refuses to be picked up. Who was she to deny him

that?!

The normal green and grassy surrounding was covered in a layer of thick white snow. Sure her

werewolf genes kept her warm, Jade liked to sometimes go along with it ; act like any normal human

you would find, sure it was delusion of her to think that she could live like a normal human being who

went about their lives without a care in the world, had the free reign to do anything.

Sadly, nothing about Jade was normal, because firstly, she was a Hybrid ; the species that shouldn't

even exist in the first place yet here she was, squashing that myth/theory with her presence. Secondly,

she had a mate who was trying to find her, and this supposed mate doesn't have a clue about their son.

Jade had been living in her own apartment, for the past two years. A few months after she had given

birth to her son, she had moved out of Scarlett's house, which the woman wasn't happy about but after

a lot of pleading and assuring her that she would be alright with a new born.

But there was a catch obviously. Scarlett only let her move out after Jade had agreed to her demands,

which was that Jade was to live close to Scarlett's house, so that Scarlett could come visit them

whenever she wanted to. Which Jade was happy about and happily obliged.

Jade had also managed to work for the past one and a half years. Scarlett owned a bakery not too far

away from where Jade lived. It was a win win situation really, Jade got to make money plus she would

take Adonis with her to the bakery, which he absolutely loved. Why wouldn't he? After all he got to eat

all the sweets that his lovely Aunt Scarlett would feed him. The boys' got a real sweet tooth.

Finally after a fifteen minute walk Jade stands outside the 'La Douceur'. This was the bakery Scarlett

owned in the heart of Winston. People here loved the baked goods the bakery had to offer hence the

hustle and bustle infront of Jade, she watched as people sat in the booths, chit chatting, and smiling.

This was the one of the few bakeries in town, so it was obviously famous among the locals.

Winston was a small town slash village kind of community. A tight-knit community of people. Tall trees

and thick rain forest areas were common here, this place oozed calmness and brings peace to ones

soul. People here were friendly and hospitable.

She can't count the amount of people who had offered her help during her pregnancy. She was almost novelbin

at the verge of crying, which might've made some people look at her in concern. The small town hosted

nearly three thousand people.

Opening the door to 'La Douceur', she inhales in the addicting aroma of coffee that seemed to waft

around the air. The Cafe had a homey feeling to it, with it being decorated in brown tones of shade.

Feeling someone tug at her hands, she looks down only to see big blue green eyes staring at her with

excitement and then staring at all the baked goodies that seemed to be put up behind the glass

counter, not so long ago.

Jade shakes her head at her son's obvious excitement. She's going to have one hyper toddler by the

end of the day.

As soon as both the mother and son duo walk in a chorus of 'Good Mornings' are thrown their way,

which she replies back to.

"Good Morning Jade." Frank, the barista instantly chimes up upon seeing Jade wake in.
