The Alliance

Kelly’s POV We sent Pierce’s family and our Snow to the airport on the night after our wedding. I didn’t know why dad, Pierce’s father, wanted to leave immediately. It’s probably because of the mess but I didn’t ask because I trust him. “Bye, mommy. Bye, daddy.” Snow was so happy while waving at us. Pierce’s arm was wrapped around my waist with his hand against my stomach. Dad was carrying Snow while they’re entering the airport terminal. I already feel sad just by the thought of my daughter sleeping without me but I know this is for the best. I can’t keep her by my side when there’s a threat to our lives. I felt Pierce kiss my hair after they disappeared from our sight. “We’ll pick her up once this is over,” he whispered. Actually, he wanted me to leave too. He said it’s safer for me and the baby in my tummy if we leave for another country but I don’t wanna leave him here. Besides, the enemy is my uncle. I have to bring him down on my own. To somehow give justice to my mother’s death.
