Chapter 25. Diana

"I'm taking Calen and Cayden home with me." My heart stopped when he turned to get into the car, leaving me standing there. "You may follow us if you wish." He got in, and the driver closed the door before going to the driver's seat, and I rushed to my car parked right next to his.

My hands were shaking so bad with anger and anxiety it took four tries to get the key in the ignition. Was it really going to be this easy to lose my babies? It was only now as I saw the ease with which Cadmus had come between the three of us, how easy it had been for him to take the babies who hadn't cried once and didn't even seem to need me now that their father was here for them, that I realized the real danger of that.

Cold sweat beaded on my brow as I tried to think of a way to stop this from happening. No argument I could come up with was good enough or strong enough to dispel the fact that I'd kept his sons from him. I know him well enough to know that he'll never forgive me for that. But I can't let him take my babies away from me. After everything I'd lost in my life to this point, I can't lose my precious babies too. I'd rather die.
