I open my eyes to find myself on a bed. I can tell this is a private jet. I get out ofbed and go to use the bathroom. I get some of my clothes from the suitcase that was at my bed side. I walk out the room and find myself in the lounge. The Hostess gives me a smile as I walk up to an empty seat, they are all looking at me and we all.
"The jobs finally complete." Ifeoma says. She's this beautiful dark skin african. Her hair is a nice kinky black, her skin like melted dark chocolate, her lips like a dark pink and her eyes are her most defining feature. The people of her village are known for their distinct blue eyes.
"But before we celebrate, I need to check you up." She says as she stands up and directs me to another room where a mini clinic has been set up. She checks my vitals and did an ultrasound on my belly.
"Everything's great," she said and I responded with a thank you.
When I suspected I was pregnant, I told her and she pretended to be a doctor at the hospital I went to just so that we could confirm.
Ife is one of the best doctors I know and she is our group doctor.
We've gone back to the lounge and found Lucia busy on her phone. She had been with me in the mansion pretending to be a maid
" Anything new?" I asked. She looked up to me and smiled. "Cassandra and Rose will are already at the base. Azeezah is still busy with her Prince." she said the last part whilst rolling her eyes. We all then laughed.
The pilot then announced on the intercom that we'll soon be arriving at the base.
We later on get off the plane. We find Cassie and young Rose.
She's the youngest amongst all of at 16 but the most lethal and dangerous.
The tree of roses, on the outside it's a non governmental organization that gives aid but in actual sense we are more like a mercenary group run by women.
Most of the strongest women in history were a part of it.
"Finally, hope you had fun in the process." Cassie says with a sly smile on her face that causes me to blush. I look to Rose and her face is as stoic as ever. Always on alert and checking her surroundings.
She's the newest inclusion to our group. Unlike us who were raised for Intel and espionage. She's more like an assassin. They raised her to be a killing machine. I'm not sure on what happened during her training but all I know is that you never want to be on her bad side.
" Real mature." I said in response as we walked in."What about Tamara?" I asked Luci.
"Well look at what the cat dragged in. A pregnant mouse." Tamara says and the rest start laughing remembering the time when our cat, Rose, brought in a literal pregnant mouse as a pet.
It caused quite a stir when the mice were born and decided to spread their wings into other people's rooms. She doesn't do that anymore, especially since she brought a cougar cub last year.
Her habits have always driven Mother insane but just like everyone else, she is too scared to dare reproach her for it.

I walk into the closet and look at her clothes, I smell the remaining perfumes, reminding me of her scent.
None of it makes sense, she disappeared as if she never existed in the first place.
it's been 2 months since she left. I don't think she would have just left me like that but then there's no other explanation for where she's gone.
"Sir, here's the information you were asking for." he states." But none of it makes sense sir, I don't know what Elder Gerald was thinking in choosing Selene. I did a dive down into her and unfortunately she doesn't exist." This revelation has me stopping what I was doing.
"What?" I ask as I walk to him and grab the documents from him.
The documents show how before 3 years ago Selene never truly existed. Her character and name is there but there is no concrete evidence of her living in that town and going to that school. How the people that town only met her 2 months before her parents death. They would talk about her but as if it was an obligation to mention their daughters not that they had true meaning or feelings behind the memories.
None of it makes. This doesn't surprise me because why would Grandpa make me marry a girl like her out of nowhere.
I tell Emmet to prepare.
We are going to see grandma.

After settling our stuff, we were called to the Court room. There we found Mother and her sisters. Everytime girls are chosen to join a group, that group is your life. You are all sisters for life. No secrets among you. You all work together. Before being put in groups our strengths and weaknesses are assessed to compliment each other so that we can work like a well oiled machine. The doctor, the breeder, the informant, the spy, the spotlight and the unwanted. Ife is our doctor, she helps ensure we are all healthy. Tamara is the informant, always in contact with headquarters keeping us and them up to dare.
Lucia is the spy, good at make up. Getting in and out without anyone noticing. Cassandra is the spotlight, she lives the extravagant life so that we may have connections. I'm the breeder, I take advantage of connections to infiltrate. As much as we may get young girls from Orphanages and bring them in, we are all expected to leave a legacy. As the breeder, I'm the group mother. I keep us in check, I'm the one to raise the groups next generation too. Azeezah is the unwanted. Of Arabic royal descent, parents sent her abroad to study and be the perfect lady. Her grandma was part of it. I don't know how they decide which child is worthy of continuing when it comes to legacies but I am a legacy too.
Well the current Mother is my mum.
