Peace At Last

last update Last Updated: 2022-05-24 08:03:05

Summer POV

Time seems to be stagnant and the dream, endless. The peace and tranquillity soothe my soul. I have no idea when last I enjoyed such peace. It has been so long since I could sleep in like this.

I yawn at the same time, cursing at the sun for rising too early. Why can the night not stretch for a full twenty-four hours? I mentally curse at whoever pulled the blinds open to allow such blinding sunlight.

Groggy, I try to raise my hand to shield myself from the penetrating sun, only to be restricted by an unknown shackle. I try again but no such luck. Wait. Restraints on my hands? How, who, and why?

Panicky, I try harder but a soft voice causes me to halt all my attempts.

"There, there, dear child, do not panic. If you allow me, can I have a word with you?"

"First take the restraints off my hands. It certainly wouldn't be a fair fight if you have me all tied up now, would it?"

A melodious sound resonates from what I presume to be her direction, as I still have my eyes closed.

The look of concern etched on everyone's face tugs at my heartstrings.I raise my hand in a bid to silence them. I am parched and water would be salvation at this moment. Micheal reacts fast and brings me a glass, whilst wiping off his tears with the other."Here, drink up princessa."He says with so much concern as he props me up to an almost sitting position. To my dismay, he only allows me a sip, before pulling the glass away. I glare at him but he only smiles."Lo siento mi querida princessa, but you have to drink it slowly.

The dizziness and nausea, cannot hold me down.It is high time I stop behaving like a damsel in distress. Every little trigger, I faint. No more. "Summer! Somebody help! My mate is bleeding profusely. Dr. Boyce, please do something!"I force myself to lift my hand and smack Michael across the face. He gasps and looks at me. My eyes are still blurry but my mind is not foggy at all. I know that I cannot say anything loudly now, but I can surely mentally convey the message. "None of you should try and take me to the hospital. If anything, grandma, Apollo, mother, Mtungagore, and Lesedi, combine forces and do everything you can to delay this baby. I cannot give birth now. Not until we find Tina. We find Tina, we find Umbrage. Then we put an end to all this.""But Aurora is not here, she..""Oh, but I already caught the culprit. I am here now."Grandma Aurora saunters in dragging Tina and Carl

I recall that when I heard the whisper, 'Umbrage', it was a voice I had almost forgotten. However, if I could not reach out to even my mate when Carla was about to snatch my baby away, how did Hailey, the triplets, and the twins know?Was I hallucinating or did I really glimpse Lenny leading them?

    Summer POV SUMMER!" "Get your lazy, ugly, good for nothing ass down here right now!" I woke up with a start. I know that voice. And I know that only spells trouble. However, it's nothing new because this is like the daily bread that I feast on since I remember. Oh! Point of correction, only when dad is not around. Mother always has to wake me up around four every morning so I clean up and cook for everyone. Iron again my siblings' clothes and hers for work. Note, iron again. Irrespective of the fact that I would have laundered and ironed them before. I still have to do it again. And if I dare wake up not on the appointed time, I get a thorough whooping on my bum. Her reason being no one would see it.Anyway, today is one of those days. Dad has been called by the werewolf king to assist with rogue attacks in the kingdom. Since he is an awesome mighty warrior, he's always been sought after by almost every pack in the world. Which leaves me alone with my monster mom and straight o

    Tina POVI woke up this morning and I couldn't believe what was happening. The strong scent of the Ocean and mixed berries was nearly choking me. Is that woman here? How when am so sure I put her to sleep for good. What's happening.? Who is the intruder? This scent is more pronounced. In fact, it's totally engulfed me. I summon my power. Just a fraction of it to ensure that I don't reveal who I really am. When I get out of my bedroom, I'm shocked to note that the scent is coming from Summer's room."SUMMER!!!" "Get your lazy, ugly, good for nothing ass down here right now!!!!" I literally scream the whole place down. She must have woken up with a start and I see her coming down in a t-shirt and jogger pants. The moment she reaches the kitchen, forgetting that I'd activated a part of my strength, I hit her straight into the gut. The impact caused her to fall. She hits her head on the counter and I can smell blood."Tell me right now, why the hell you'd conceal something like that y

    Luke POVI woke up today with a certain restlessness that I couldn't quite figure out the cause. I felt my wolf pacing up and down as well. We are both unsettled but can't precisely pinpoint the reason.I sigh. I try again to ask Luca my wolf if he has any idea, but he tells me he is equally as clueless as I am. Exasperated, I start pacing up and down my office.Suddenly I am engulfed by this strong desire to go and see Summer my niece. The feeling is indescribable. It is like an overwhelming need to protect her.I am baffled. What is going on? Even for my twins, I have not felt this overprotective."Just get up and go see her already!"Luca snarls at me. To say I am baffled is not even appropriate. I am literally paralysed in shock. He has never once used that kind of tone with me. Just as I was about to go out, Hannah the omega who is mute brings me coffee."Do not drink it Luke!!"Again

    Sunny POVI am finally free. Am not sure how we did it but The barrier broke loose. I've tried to break through the mental barrier that she'd built up over the years but couldn't.It was the spells from Tina, the wolfsbane she'd always put in Summer's food coupled with her own defensive barrier she put up. I have been trying to reach to my human but couldn't.As I am a special wolf both strong and rare, I could not force her. She had to embrace me. So I guess the knock to her head did the trick for me. By falling unconscious, she let down her guard and I managed to reach out to her. I am so ecstatic that we are finally one now. Though we will not shift for a while, we can use our power. I have to help her group up her allies. So when Luke entered, I immediately drew him into the magical world we are currently residing in. He had to know. He has to see.

    Dr Boyce POVIt's been two days since Tina rushed here to the pack hospital with an unconscious Summer in her hands.It was a very peaceful morning and I was just sitting in my office admiring the lush green scenery of the forest behind the hospital.It soothes me. It gives me a certain unexplainable peace and tranquility.It was then that Tina rushed in. I quickly switched to my doctor mode. As werewolves our job is not difficult. Usually we heal easily. It's in very extreme cases where we really need the intervention of a doctor. Only if it's damage inflicted by silver, wolfsbane or a spell from the dark witches. Of which the latter is not even possible since all the witches were completely wiped out into extinction in the last great war. We only know of witches, wizards and warlocks from the folklores. We don't know whether it's even true.Anyway, I checked on warrior Levi's daughter and I must say I was a little taken ab

    Summer POVThe seaweed, as per Nyaminyami's instructions, is to enable us to breathe in water. Unfortunately, we cannot teleport ourselves to his lair. Therefore, we only had to dive into the deep blue sea. Surprisingly, the water was not as cold as it should normally be. The journey to the great snake people's kingdom was quite easy. We have Nyaminyami to thank for that. For us to find his location, he left a beam of light for us. Had Poseidon not rushed to his home earlier, he would have been able to take us there without any problem. Either way, we will meet at Nyaminyami's place. As heavily pregnant as I am, I'm surprised swimming is so easy for me. There must be magic in this water. Before we know it, we arrive at the great snake's home.These serpents are huge and quite unusual I must say. Back on land, they just seemed to be just big giant snakes. However, here, I am gobsmacked. They have hands and almost humanlike heads! As a wolf, I am quite brave but seeing the Nyaminyami

    Summer POVMtungagore did not waste any time, he brought Sid back just before dusk. Upon seeing him, I had mixed feelings. Anger and gratitude at the same time. Anger because he allowed Harold to fool him. Grateful for the fact that, had he decided not to retaliate in the end, I most certainly, would have perished in that inferno. At the end of it all, I owe him one and my heart just cannot hate him. He, like many others, was deceived as well. But his strong sense of justice made him overcome. He is the epitome of humanity. "Summer! Is it really you? Howling hailstorm! It is really you!"This guy is insufferable. From where does he get these expressions of his? I cannot contain the smile that slowly creeps onto my lips. I know for sure that I am happy to see him. I walk closer to him and give him a brief hug. "Not possible matey, your belly is protruding. I would not want to disturb the little warrior in there. From the looks of it, you won't have to wait long till you meet him.""

    Summer POVI pride myself on being a werewolf. We are practically gifted with extremely heightened senses. However, right now, I feel as if my sense of sight is failing. When we left barely ten days ago, this place was in total ruins. But now, my eyes must be dysfunctional. This place looks nothing like it was when we left. The three-story upper part of the great hall has been erected. Construction workers, whom I believe to be human are busy at work. Together with just a dozen of our men. How could uncle Luke do this? Honestly, how can he bring humans to our realm soon after the war? Are we not capable enough? How then can our people celebrate the victory if humans are amongst us?Besides, this is not the time for us to interact with humans. We are yet to rebuild and they obviously will question such a big structure hidden in the middle of the jungle. "Calmate mi querida princessa. I am sure uncle Luke would not make such a blunder. There is surely a good explanation for this."Mi

Let's do that before leaving for Azania."Aurora says this through clenched teeth. She is seething mad and she is trying so hard to contain it. As I draw closer to Lucifer so we can perform the spell together, once again, my son stops me. "You have to leave now mama. There is no time and besides, it is way too risky to linger around here. You can cloak him once you reach Azania."Before asking his reason, I once again, mentally convey the message to my crew. No one interjects. I have already told them about the voice. What I did not do, is telling them who exactly is bringing the messages to me. Mother's instinct I guess. Aurora creates the portal and we all step in. Surprisingly, we do not emerge at the great pyramids of Azania. Instead, our destination is some clearance near a vast river. Everyone stares at Aurora with quizzical gazes. "Oh please don't.

Forget about that human!""Ah, but she looks tasty your Horridness!""Trust me you vile serpent, she is not as simple as you consider her to be. Do you think I would be in this state if she was as simple as a late lunch snack?""You must be growing old and rusty your Vileness. Allow me or else, I will not rescue you."With that, he shuts me out.I try compelling him and it works. Why the hell did I just not do that from the beginning? My mind is getting mushy lately. It must be the bounds. Just as he coils himself around me, the leader of the Seneca must have seen me. That means Jormungand broke the invisibility spell. The Seneca roars with so much rage that his voice echoes. "You deceptive fool! You knew that if I were to get wind of your predicament, I would not help! You will not
