The instructions have been clear and pretty much mutual on every pregnancy test kit that he bought. Adeline was amazed at the fact that he had bought one from each company that must have been available in the grocery store.

When they had returned home from the grocery shopping, Adeline noticed that her father's car was already part in the driveway meaning her father was already home and he had even come out to help her in bringing the things in which that was way better than having Noah standing next to her or more likely on her head while she waited fifteen minutes for every test to turn to the results.

As soon as she was done with bringing the groceries inside she had turned to her bathroom and gotten ready to take the test but as it turned out to be, she had to wait at least 15 minutes for all of them to turn to the results for which she had decided that maybe stooking the groceries in their places would be more helpful. 

By the time she had already finished her stocking stock in the pantry but apparently, there was still five minutes to go irritated her because she did not want to wait for two of them while the rest for doing. 

The next thing that she could think of was cleaning. She took her Schoolbag and opened it taking out all the school books along with the worksheets and continued to empty it till there was nothing but a small velvet box and pencil shavings inside. 

She frowned and turned it over but there was nothing written on top of it or at the bottom. Also, she did not remember buying anything related to jewellery recently on her way home from school. So how did it reach here? 

She opened it and gasped, finding a small golden crescent moon pendant in it. It was tiny but it was beautiful.

It took her breath away at the first sight. 

She gulped as her eyes refused to leave the beautiful piece of gold. She took it out and moved to stand in front of the mirror. Adeline pushed her hair back and tied the chain behind her neck. The pendant came just below her collar bone and it was perfect for everyone else to see. She was sure that every outfit could also go with it.

Her eyes met her own in the mirror and she says it at how beautiful it looked on her. She knew that this was given by Xavier and it had two meanings to it. He surely knew how to pick up gifts.

A smile stretched her face as she continued to stare at her collar bone which had the small crescent pendant on it. She could not help but take a picture of her, a mirror selfie and then a selfie that focused on her neck more.

She sent it to him with a giddy smile on her face and waited for his reply. It felt like before, the blissful ignorance. 

Everything else on her mind had vanished and the only important thing that remained was his reply.

The notification turned and she immediately left onto it. He had sent her hearts. A lot of them he had sent making her squeal loudly and jump up repeatedly. 

Seconds later she received his call and accepted it with a smile on her face. 

"You look gorgeous in it!" He praised and she knew that this was the Xavier that she met every single day. Not the one that she had talked to prior, in the grocery store.

She giggled and thanked him for it. "You should have given me face to face instead of putting it in my bag!"

He huffed and she knew that he was smiling. "I wanted it to be a surprise and this one seems to top it all."

It did. "I love it, Xavier. Thank you." She sighed. It was too good to be true.

She did love him. But did she love him enough to continue with the facade he put with?

"Hey," he called and she hummed. "I have to go to my uncle's house for a few days, a week Perhaps." He revealed. "I want you to be very careful while I'm not there."

She giggled at his concerning nature. "Please, I'll be fine. What happened to your uncle?"

"He broke his . . urm. . hip bone."

She frowned. "There's a bone in the hip?"

"There's a bone everywhere." He answered very seriously. 

She giggled as a thought came to her mind. "Is there a bone in your pee-pee too?"

"Adaline!" He yelled and she laughed loudly. Hell, she cackled at it.

"What the fuck?!" He yelled again. He sighed and calmed down but she was still laughing. "I have to go now. Sorry, I cannot meet you before this. It's ready urgent." He said and she sighed.

"It's okay. Bye." She nodded sullenly. Her joyful mood was not depressed. 

"Bye." He said and hung up.

She sighed and kept her phone on the bed.

"You guys are awful."

"Ah!" She jumped up and turned around to find Noah standing at his window. "What the hell!" She yelled, "You scared me!"

He scoffed. "You horrified me with that stuff. Heh heh heh, the giggles, uff!"

She blushed and looked away. Sometimes she felt that the only person in the matter around was Xavier and no one else.

"Did you check?" He asked.

She shook her head. "Does it matter?" She rebuked. She was not going to check and just ask him the truth.

Within a flash, he jumped from his window to hers and within moments was in front of her. She did not even have time to scream because he looked into her eyes and then compelled her, "You are so scared that you cannot even think about something else than running away. That is the priority." She nodded as he did. "You do not have any feelings for him." He recited and she nodded to his command making him smirk. 

His eyes glanced at her collar bone. The protection charm was there. The moon represented that she belonged to a worshipper of the moon and that she was claimed. More so, she had the protection of the mate. 

But it was too late and the charm did not have enough time to act. 

"Now, I want you to close your eyes and count till three, also take the pendant off. So keep it safely, yeah?. Do that for me, hm?" Denying was not an option no matter how much she wanted to. So she nodded and her hands went behind her neck, as she unclasped it and placed it safely in the velvet box. Closing her eyes for a few seconds. 

Those seconds were enough as he went back to his window and the conversation carried as before.

"Did you check?" He asked again and a concerning expression took to his face. 

She shook her head and she felt a weight on her chest. Something was wrong but she could not tell what it was.

"I should go check," she whispered to herself. What if they were true? What would she do? "Should I?" Her eyes snapped to his. "I don't know what to do." She admitted. Her brain ran different scenarios and she did not like any of them. 

"Go on," he urged like a concerned friend. "You need to know."

She went to the bathroom and stepped closer to the shelf where the sticks were laid. They were four and the result only shocked her.

She went out to talk to him. The only guy who was truthful to her.

"What is it?"

"I . . . Don't know." She shook her head with a shaky sigh and her hands roughly ran through her hair. This was not right. What changes were of it happening?!

"What happened?" He frowned looking equally worried about what happened since Adeline and had not spared him any details.

"Two were positive . ." She sighed and Revealed. "And two were negative."

"So, fifty-fifty." He said and sighed. "Now what?"

She shrugged. A visit to the gynaecologist was the next stop.

The night has fallen and so had the darkness, where his powers grew more. He took off his ring and handed it to Isla, who was lying in the same position as ever. 

He stepped out of his own house and moved across to Adeline's home. He entered the house, along with a lil' witch, Isla's apprentice, who wanted her teacher back as quickly too. 

"Upstairs." He pointed his finger up and heard the little witch move up. Adeline was to be charmed so that her mate but never be able to detect his presence in that room. 

He, on the other hand, moved to the kitchen. He took out the small spray bottle, filled with liquid and around the fridge. He sprayed everything there, every counter then, the pantry even and so did he do with the dishes. 

He had failed three times but this time, Isla was coming back.
