Two years later:
Dmitri was playing chess with Nate while Nikolai, Connor and Tyler watched them in the gardens of the palace.
Sitting under the oak tree, Adrianna was speaking with Ookashi. "You should see how Nikolai defeats his grandfather," she chuckled. In her lap was Yana, Ileus's one-year old baby girl who was sleeping. Adrianna couldn't get enough of her granddaughter. She was beautiful just like her mother except that she had golden eyes. She pressed a kiss on Yana's forehead. Anastasia had given her three beautiful grandchildren who kept her occupied for the whole time. Throughout the pregnancy, the way Ileus took care of his wife, it was if he had grown several years old. And ever since Yana came in his life, she had her father wrapped around her little finger. They had gone to the Elders to get a locket for her as well.
