Hey hope you like my new story I know it's a bit like some of the other stories but i just wanted to try it. For those who have read my other story don't worry these will both get equal attention.

usual Disclaimer I don't own anything but like most others really wish I did.

5 years ago there was a massive Strigoi attack on the academy.........

5 years ago I found out that I can actually have children with another Dhampir.....

5 years ago I started my new life............

At first I was just amazed that I was able to have children then I was even more amazed when I found out I was having twins. A boy and a Girl, Conner the oldest and Annabelle just a couple minutes younger.

For the past 5 years we have lived in Pennsylvania with my 2 kids. Every now and then I get sucked into Lissa's head. Everything is good she has married Christian and they have Eddie guarding them. Then there's Dimitri he still guards Lissa but from her memories he only still guarded her for me.

Right now I was just pulling up outside the kid's Day care to pick them up. They always said that they should be able to stay home and that Conner would look after Annabelle to help anyway he could. I always told him that the only way he could help is to look after Annabelle at school so that I know both of them are safe then after a couple of minutes me reassuring him he would agree and go to kindy.

I turned the car off grabbed my bag and got out of the car. I walked into the front office area where the lady at the desk greeted me.

"Hi I'm here for Conner and Annabelle Hathaway" I said tapping my fingers on the counter. Even though I know their safe but I always get anxious being away from them and amazingly they don't get sick of me.

"Mommy!" They both yelled

Just then they came running out of the door jumping into my arms for a hug. Because I was a Dhampir I was able to pick them up at the same time. They both kissed me on the cheek each side then resting their heads on each of my shoulders.

"We missed you mommy" Annabelle said hiding her face in my hair.

I turned my head to kiss her on the cheek.

"Well I missed you guys too sweetie"

Conner tugged on my hair trying to get my attention. I turned to look at him.

"I looked after her all day and made sure no one made her UN happy" Conner whispered in my ear

I kissed him on the top of the head and thanked him for looking after her. I turned to the lady at the desk and thanked her before leaving with the kids.

I strapped them both in the back seat, got in the car and started driving home.

"So what did you 2 do today?" I asked looking in the review mirror to see them.

"Anabelle threw sand at someone so I took the blame and got sent to the corner" Conner replied proudly. I chuckled in response.

"Anna I told you no to throw things at people especially with our strength and tempers." I warned her in a firm voice but I smiled. I looked at her in the review mirror and saw that she was smiling too.

On the way home they both talked about their days and we stopped to get something to eat. Like me they both got donuts not ice-cream like normal children.

"How come every afternoon you guys tell me every single detail of your days and get the same donut each day?" I asked.

"Because you miss out on so much mommy and we want you to know EVERYTHING" Annabelle replied but Conner had to have the last word just like I used to.

"Plus we love donuts Mommy and we don't get fat because we train with you every afternoon" He said defending himself. They both reminded me of Dimitri. Annabelle was always quiet just like Dimitri but when you ticked her off she was a mixture of Dimitri and me when we get angry.

Conner was always very protective of Annabelle and he always had his guardian mask on just like Dimitri and would only let it slip around me or Annabelle. They both had a very big appetite like me and they both did exactly as they were told no exceptions just like Dimitri before he met me.

Annabelle had long hair the same colour as Dimitri's with almond shaped eyes just like mine. Conner had my hair but he had it a t Dimitri's length, he also had the exact same eyes as his father which every now and then made me teary.

Before I had left the academy I got Lissa to take a photo of Dimitri and me. Now I bring it out every night to show the Kids their father. They listen to our story every night as if it were a fairytale. They know every detail about Moroi, Dhampir and Strigoi. If it were up to me they wouldn't know at such a young age but one day a Strigoi turned up and we were attacked. They wouldn't leave me alone until I told them everything.

Both of them love their father and every night I tell them that if he knew about them he would love them as well. Conner always said 'I will look after you mommy unlike daddy and I will look after Annie as well' that would always make me smile.

The Kids just finished putting their pyjamas on and were running around the house before bed. I was chasing after them pretending to be a monster and we were having fun.

I was just about to catch Annabelle when the door bell rang. Anna squealed and ran into the kitchen teasing that I missed her.

"Next time" I shouted out to her as I walked to the front door. I opened the door and turned to look who was at the door.

I froze. There in my door way stood Eddie accompanied by Stan and Yuri.

"Can we come in?" He asked taking a step forward so I couldn't slam the door in his face.

I stood there for a second then opened the door wider for them to come in and as if just on cue Annabelle and Conner came into the room standing next to each other.

"Mommy who are they?" Annabelle asked as Conner took a step in front of her protectively.

"Sweetie these are Guardians it's ok" I said as Annabelle ran and jumped into my arms while Conner hugged my leg.

I turned to look back at Eddie and the others. They were just standing there mouths open and eyes popping out of their heads.

I was just about to tell them that if they didn't close their mouths they would fill up with flies when Anna beat me to it.

"If you don't close your mouths you'll catch flies" Anna spat at them glaring while I just giggled.

"Definitely yours" he said sitting down on the couch with Yuri and Stan. Conner sat next to me with his guardian face on the whole time while Annie just hid her head in my hair.

"So Eddie why have you tracked me down after 5 years?" I asked putting my arm around Conner silently telling him to calm down.

"Why don't you introduce us first Rose?" he said gesturing to my Kids.

"Well this here" I said looking at Conner "Is Conner he is the eldest."

"But only by a couple of minutes" Anna said defending herself.

I smiled at her and pushed a stray piece of hair out of her face.

"This is Annabelle she is younger by 2 minutes and 20 seconds." I explained turning back to Eddie.

"Guys this is Eddie, Stan and Yuri from the school I used to go to." Annabelle smiled while Conner gave a little nod.

"Are they from the fairytale?" Conner asked never taking his eyes of Stan.

"Well I told you that those stories were from when I was younger not a fairytale" I explained to him.

"Typical she's even a bad mother" Stan mumbled. I glared at him hearing that and Conner almost jumped at him if I hadn't caught his T-shirt before he could do anything.

"Conner calm down its ok he's saughta right but that doesn't matter because he is no longer welcome in our house and he can wait outside." I said inclined my head towards the door.

"I'll walk you out" Conner said in a hard voice.

I watched as Conner let Stan out of the house. I giggled internally.

"He is so much like you and Dimitri" Eddie said bringing my attention back to him.

"Yeah he is, they both are" I said smiling at having Dimitri so close.

"Well I suspect that you are here for something really important because I specifically told you that I did not want to be disturbed." I told him my voice slightly harsh.

He looked down at his hands then back at me.

"Lissa was attacked" He said getting all teary eyed. Anna wriggled getting my attention.

"Does he mean Aunty Lissa?" She asked sounding worried. I just nodded unable to talk at the moment.

"How does she know about Lissa?" Yuri asked. I almost forgot he was in the room.

"Ummmmmm.... I tell them everything about my life when I was at school minus some details they don't really need or want to hear." Things like how intimate I was with their father or how gruesome the attack was.

"What happened?" I asked a little worried. I hadn't been sucked into Lissa's head in years because of my mental walls.

"Well she is really bad and she wanted to see you just in case anything happened." He said breathing out slightly.

"Anna can you grab your brother than go into your room and start to pack" I whispered in her ear.

She jumped off my lap and ran to get Conner.

"Eddie I love Lissa and even though the twins have never met her they love her as well. We will come to see her as long as you make sure Dimitri never finds out." I said in a hard voice.

"Ok we have to leave now so we can get into the dangerous territory at sunlight" He explained I just nodded and went to pack my things. Once I was all packed I went into the Kids room to make sure they had everything.

"Mommy can we take daddy with us?" Conner asked as Anna pulled the picture out from the night stand in between their beds.

"Of course sweetie you guys can take daddy where ever we go" I said pulling them into a hug.

They always loved that picture but never asked to see their father.

"Guys if you want to meet your father I can tell him?" I asked knowing the answer already.

"No Mommy we want you all to ourselves and for daddy to have a future" Anna replied. They hated it when I didn't pay enough attention to them.

"Ok lets go Uncle Eddie is waiting" I said picking up their suitcases and mine and bringing them to the car. The kids were still in their pyjamas so they could sleep in the car.

Eddie had set up the middle row of seats so that I could sit in between them while they sleep. I shot him a thankful glance while I hoped into the car. Eddie has shot gun while Stan was driving and Yuri was sitting in the very back by himself.

"Mommy can you tell us a story?" Conner asked pulling on my sleeve. I wrapped my arm around him.

"Which story would you guys like?" I asked wrapping my other arm around Anna.

"When you and daddy met?" Anna replied. The twins didn't ask each other what the other wanted they just knew each other so well.

"Well who has daddy then we can start our story?" I asked as Conner pulled the Picture of me and Dimitri out of his pocket.

Eddie was looking at me the whole time I told them the story with a loving look in his eye. Just before they were about to fall asleep they both looked up at me.

"I love you Mommy" they said in unison. I kissed each of their cheeks and told them that I loved both of them and that they were my whole world.

Stan cleared his throat and looked at me through the review mirror.

"I'm sorry I said that before Rose. Obviously you are a great mother." He said looking slightly embarrassed for having to apologise to me.

"Don't worry I never thought I would be a mom it surprises me sometimes how happy they are with me." I said looking at my kids.

The photo of Dimitri was on my lap and I couldn't help but stare at his gorgeous face.

"He deserves to know" Eddie said bringing my attention back.

"He is such a great guardian if I told him he would stop and he loves guarding so much I don't know if I could take that away from him" I said as a traitor tear rolled down my cheek.

"Dimitri has always wanted a family and now he has one but your hiding it from him. He loves you so much he would do anything for you. Besides he might still guard and help raise your family" Eddie suggested. It would be nice having Dimitri know.

"Ok" I said "But only if the Queen lets me be a guardian so I can give the twins more" I replied looking at Eddie.

He smiled.

"I'm sure she would let you because she knows you won't be after her nephew." We both giggled.

Along the ride he asked me how I'd been and how the kids new about everyone at home. I told him I showed them the pictures and told them stories every night. When the kids started to wake up I told Stan we needed to pull over so they could have breakfast. They both wanted to be dressed before they went anywhere so Conner made everyone leave while they got dressed in the car. Once finished we pulled into the service station with a connecting McDonalds.

"Please Mommy I promise we will order healthy?" Conner pleaded with me. I looked at him and all I could see was Dimitri so I reluctantly agreed.

"Yay!" they squealed as they ran to the counter. Once we got breakfast we were on our way to the Royal court again.
