" this is Dominic Valdez " as soon as he spoke this Stephen clenched his fist and spoke " how dare you to contact me when i told you that if you contact anyone in my family or step in England, it will be a war " he spoke in his thick English accent which made Azriel pale and even Dominic flinched while Darius was still calm he was as scary as his grandfather was he took the phone from his father and spoke " hello grandfather this is Darius before you say anything we need to tell you something, its about mom " now this catched stephen offguard his daughter was his everything and after she dissappeard it killed him and he still misses his princess every day and he still loved his grandsons even though he never showed it to them but he secretly kept eye on them for their safety, " what about her " Stephen asked " we got a call from paris yesterday about mom , she passed away yesterday and also when she left she was pregnant and she didn't told anyone about this she gave birth to twins , they are fifteen now dad is their legal guardian now , mom's last wish was to get buried beside her mother in your family cemetery so we all want to come to london tomorrow " while Darius was speaking this Stephen couldn't believe it his heart shattered he could've never imagined this his princess was not alive anymore tears started pooling out in his eyes , Stephen wellington was a emotionless man he never showed any emotions but this is was about his princess, soon he gathered himself and spoke " how did this happen and she was in paris all this time ? " " yes , she came here and took grandma's maiden name , she had broken heart syndrome she died from cardiogenic shock " the line went silent for a minute then Stephen spoke " you'll come to london tomorrow with the twins i will arrange the funeral and we will talk about this tomorrow " Stephen spoke with emotionless voice and ended the call before darius could answer it , Valentino grumbled at this and Dominic released a sigh and he couldn't help but feel sad , he met the love of his life after almost 16 years when she wasn't even alive Darius noticed this " dad you should also go and rest Valentino will call the pilot to arrange the jet for Tomorrow and I'll also check on twins , it's been a tough day " " you are right son " Dominic spoke with sadness and Darius left to check on the younger twins and Valentino left to call the pilot

Meanwhile in Amirah's room

Azriel followed Amirah to her room , her room was very cozy with neutral colors and lots of books and gave a very warm vibe " you can help me pack the books and i will pack my clothes and other things " Amirah spoke " sure mariposa (butterfly) go ahead Amirah went up to her closet to grab her clothes and other basic stuff , she packed most of them since most of them were designed by her mother herself and she couldn't leave anything behind that was made by her mom , soon she came outside with three bags and Azriel also packed most of her books " i don't think you'll need so many clothes Amirah, you can buy them once we reach newyork " Azriel said with confusion " they all are made by mom especially for me i don't want to leave them behind " she spoke with a longing look and Azriel nodded with sadness and Amirah went up to pack all the pictures of her mom and Amir hanging on her wall while picking them it hit her suddenly from now on she won't be able to spend anytime with her mom and all those memories hit her , Azriel noticed the sad frown on her face " mariposa don't worry it will get better sooner mom is always with you in her heart , we all are with you i am never leaving you again " Azriel hugged her and kissed her on forehead Amirah sobbed in his chest whilst he kept saying sweet words to her Amirah felt at peace with Azriel she could feel that how easy it was to open up to him soon they parted away from each other and Amirah wiped her face " thank you for your help , i couldn't pack it all by myself " " its not a big deal , i will go and check on Azriel you should take rest , I'll see you on dinner " Azriel kissed her forehead and left , soon Amirah laid down on her bed and she couldn't help but think about whatever happened in the last two days , everything was so confusing for her though she felt comfortable with Azriel she still couldn't understand why did her mom kept it all a secret from her she never mentioned anything about her brother's , thinking about all this was making her anxious she always likes to find the answers to everything now all this was like a puzzle to her , she took out her phone to see the picture of her and Amir with their mom and she didn't even realized when she started crying ( see the picture above).

While Amirah was crying Darius came to check on her , he felt pain in his chest seeing his little sister crying for their mom " shh , it's okay i am here " he spoke with a soft voice that he had never used in his life and hugged her , he never showed any emotions to anyone but his little sister was different, Amirah felt safe in her brother's arms and kept sobbing which broke his heart " i am here to care of you Amirah, go to sleep Chiquita " (my little one ), Amirah smiled at the nickname, she was fluent in Spanish her mom made sure her and Amir could speak Spanish , it didn't made sense for her then but now she knew , why her mom did that soon she fell asleep and Darius couldn't help but feel like a final piece of his heart is complete suddenly he could hear Adrian qnd Augustin arguing in Amir's room , he rolled his eyes and set Amirah on her bed pulling the duvet and kissed her forehead, he left her room and went to Amir's room and he could see Augustin and Adrian arguing over how Adrian was just sitting there without helping them " boys , your sister is sleeping so you both better shut up and Adrian go downstairs and order dinner for everyone " Darius whispered shorted at them , earning a grumble from Adrian and smirk from Augustin and Amir while Azriel shaked his head at his younger brothers , " when you all are done come downstairs for dinner and let Amirah skip dinner, dhe is already exhausted " Darius spoke while leaving the room , "okay boys let's get back to it " Azriel spoke with cheerful voice, Augustin and Amir grumbled at that .

Soon all of them came downstairs for dinner except Amirah and Darius informed them about their departure to london next day , all of them went back to their rooms since they had to wake up early for the flight , Amir went to Amirah's room because he couldn't sleep alone after all what they went through.

London

After ending the call with Darius, Stephen couldn't help but feel like the weakest man , he couldn't help but blame himself for everything that happened to his daughter and he smashed everything in his office hearing all these smashing voices Matthew Stephen's son along with his four sons rushed to his office, Matthew reached to his father and stopped him from destroying everything " father you need to calm down , what happened " Matthew spoke with concern, it was very unusual for him to see his father like this usually he never showed any emotions " Audra is dead " this was enough for Matthew to break down he lost his twin after searching for her from last 16 years he still hoped that she was safe and alive but now he couldn't help but feel weak , Matthew's son watched their grandfather and father crying for the first time and they couldn't help but feel sad .
