Grandpa Juno's pov
"Grandpa, the party preparations are ready. Are you sure Luna will bring Metolia? It's been too long and she might be weary." Xavier said with a frown on his god-like face. " Ah don't worry by now, I know Luna has already told her about us and we all know that family is forever." Jiovanni the older twin replied. "You two are making a lot of noise just remember your uncle will be attending, you will be on your best behavior. I don't want to see Azazel and Duriel out no matter what."
" We might scare our little Metolia and we want her to love us. They will be landing tonight and you two will have to go pick them up." " Okay old man, but right now we have some work to do," Xavier says, and they bow before they walk out. These boys will be the death of me. Their uncle trained them since they were boys and they were taught well. I hope they can hold in their demons and not scare the poor girl away. I would really love to see her often.
I am happy my family is finally together. I still want to get the bastard that took her when she was a baby. Every time we get close to him/her, we lose track and this has been happening for the last ten years. This time I'm sure Azazel and Duriel won't give up, they are both working with the government. Apparently, the bastard has angered some really powerful people by kidnapping their children or grandchildren.
That bastard doesn't even deserve death. I can't wait to hear his cries. I am sure the government won't refuse us this plea. He will be held in our eternal dungeons. With that thought in mind, I smiled. My phone brings me out of my sinister daydream, " another child went missing last night." says the icy voice on the other end. " How old?" I asked, my knuckles turning white from gripping the arm chair. " One year old," that was my last straw.
It's time to let the legion out, this bastard will suffer. I send them invitations to my birthday party but they know it's just a cover. We shall meet after the party. I walked out of my office and headed towards the dungeons. I need to calm my blood lust before I hurt someone.
Juno twins pov
(Xavier and Jiovanni)
" Brother, what do you think she's like? I bet she looks like Luna." Xavier says "I hope she's got mom's looks," Jiovanni says with sadness in his eyes.
Our mother died on Metolia's birthday. She went into shock after she heard that her little moon had been taken. She didn't last long and she went to be with our dad. Loosing Metolia broke our family. She was like the Juno glue and now that she is back, we can't wait to bring our family back together.
We reached the airport in record time and we waited patiently in the car. " Jio, did you run a background check on those girl twins?" " I did and they live with their grandmother who is sick, they dropped out of school to raise money for her medications and treatment." " We have to help them Jio," " Who got you so whipped baby bro!" " The blonde and she is the younger twin you know." " I know, I'm the one who did the background check Xavi." " So are you going to ask my girl's sister out on a date or what?" " Hahaha Xavi, I will ask her out when you ask yours out. Deal?" "Deal!"
Luna's pov
We arrive in Italy an hour before midnight. As we walked out of the VIP gate, I saw the family car and my brothers were lost in their own discussion.
" These dimwits must be talking about their girlfriends, they are so whipped." I said to myself and smiled at their banter. I knock on their window and wink at them, they come out and envelope me in a bear hug. We can all feel the eyes looking at us, especially my special person, and I'm sure if looks could kill, my brothers would be six feet down by now.
"Greg, you are still as possessive as the day you saw her. We are her brothers, nothing more." The boys chuckle at Greg's behavior. He has always been possessive of me and I love it. " Jio, Xavi long time no see. Stay away from my wife and daughter, you can have the boys." Greg says with a frown on his face. "Dad!" The boys ( Aiden, Adrian, Lechi and Achi) whine and feign pain holding their hearts. We chuckle at their antics. "Sis, you didn't tell us you got other boys." Xavier says. " Well, they are ours, aren't they adorable?" Greg says with a lot of love in his eyes.
" We have a great great grandpa, that's so cool." Xander says with a glint of joy in his eyes. " We can't wait to see him!" They twins say together and we all chuckle. " Mommy will your uncles like us?" they ask with worry in their voices. " I am sure they will love you guys so much. No one is capable of not liking you and so long as daddy and mommy love you both, you don't have to worry." Lia tells them.
Everybody goes silent. Xavier and Jio are stunned beyond belief. I know why. Lia looks so much like our mother and that's why the two most feared men in the world are in tears. " You look just like our mom." They both said together.
Lia's pov
Huh! What are these Greek gods talking about? What creeped me out was how they said that together. " That twin thing creeps me out." I say as I look at the three sets of twins and everybody starts laughing. The Greek gods approach me and they engulf me in a hug. It's comfortable and it feels great, but nothing like Ronia's. He feels like home.
" I'm Xavier, this is Jiovanni and we are your uncles little moon. Who are these special stars around you?" They asked, looking around us. " Well pleased to meet you, these special twins are Alexander and Alexandria. Their father and the man I love, Romania Alexander, my baby brothers Malech and Zach, but we call them Lechi and Achi." I introduced my small family to my uncles and they got acquainted.
We got in the SUV and drove off towards my mom's childhood home. I can see the longing in her eyes. She misses her home and I am glad we came. Romania has been really good to me. I moved to his room and now he gets to hold me all night. I can get used to this feeling because it's so beautiful. Like, right now, he is holding my hand and his other hand is around my waist, we are almost molding together. My mom and dad are carrying the twins who fell asleep along the way and the boys are chatting away with Xavi and Jio getting to know each other.
We found out that Eva White had been following us and that she was related to Tony. Yes, our dead beat father. With my hacking skills, I also found out they have been following the twins and Sarah is the pawn in their game. I know we are all in danger, especially the twins. Ronia and I decided to leave the twins in Italy to live with my uncles and great grandpa. Even though I have been training them, I know that they are too young for the violence that is coming.
We arrived at the mansion. No, a palace, we were assigned rooms one floor below grandpa Juno's. We didn't get to see him because he was already sleeping. I got the twins ready for bed with Ronia's help, then we went to bed.
In the morning, I'm woken up by small giggles and a chuckle near my face. I force open my eyes and I'm greeted by the most beautiful sight before me. The twins are by my side and Ronia above. They are all looking at me, Ronia with awe and the twins with mischief. They probably kissed me all over my face and left lipstick marks. I started laughing, " No you didn't," " Yes we did," the twins reply and Ronia chuckles. " You should see your beautiful face, love." He says smiling.
We were so immersed in our tickle war, we didn't see the tall figure sitting on one of the couches until he laughed out loud, taking us out of our little happy world. This was awkward. I was on top of Xander and Xandria was on top of her dad. Yes, the girls were owning this war. " You don't have to stop having fun because of me. By the way, welcome to my humble abode, I'm grandpa Juno." He grins at us. The twins look at him with awe, then get off the bed and run to him.
"Grandpa!" " And who are these beautiful souls!" he asks. " I am Alexandria Noela Romania and this is my twin brother Alexander Junior Romania and that is our mommy and daddy." Xandria says. He takes them and puts them on his lap and they chat for a while, then he sends them to have breakfast. After the twins left, grandpa turned to us, his smile gone and a dark look covered his face. I know this look but Ronia is tense beside me. He knows what's coming.
"You are the man that made my great granddaughter a mom at such an early age, it seems you are courting death. You must be really stupid or damn stupid." He says, a sinister smile appears on his face and a chill runs down my spine. Oh no, my man has to duel with my grandpa. Is this some kind of rite of passage or does he just want to make sure he can protect his family? I placed my chin on his shoulder and whispered in his ears," It seems you've been challenged to a duel." He relaxes after this and then nods stiffly towards Grandpa Juno.
At Juno's birthday party that night.
All the boys are dressed in high end personally made Juno suits and they look like models having a photo shoot. The ball room is full and everybody is dressed in expensive clothes. It's like a competition to flaunt your wealth. The ladies are eyeing the Juno men. What they don't know is that they are allowed to choose their own paths when it comes to the women they bring into the family. They've got to have a clean background and kind at heart.
The ball room goes quiet and a huge door is opened, grandpa Juno walks in. In his arms are Luna and Metolia. They walked him to the front and let him sit on his throne. These two ladies are the envy of every woman in the ball room, their beauty is out of this world and the men are drooling. Their day dreams are cut short when Greg and Romania walk towards them and pull them to their chests. You'd think they are father and son. Faces fall after seeing this and you all know they are all disappointed for different reasons.
The party begins in full swing. Everybody is having fun and enjoying the food. An hour later, a tall man (6'8) with neatly tied long black hair, in a black suit and shinny shoes enters the room. He walks in but nobody takes notice, his moves are really quiet, but not that quiet for Lia. A whiff of a certain cologne passed her and her eyes lit up. She couldn't believe he had come. A ghost of a smile appeared on her angelic face. She pecks Ronia on the cheeks and leaves their table. She has to find him and introduce him to her family. She roams the whole room and gives up. As she returns to her table, she is greeted by a familiar posture standing next to grandpa Juno's side.
" Old man, you can't miss a party so long as they serve food." Lia says as she approaches this figure and her family looks at her like she will get into trouble, but they are more shocked by the old man's reply. " Kid, you know me too well." He turns around to be met by his special girl, he thought he would never see her again but here she is all dolled up and confusing all the men in this ball room. Lia runs into the old man's arms and he gives her a warm bear hug. You can see a few tears coming from both of them and their happiness envelopes the atmosphere.
