Levi's POV
As soon as I get home with Tina she was ready to jump me. Ok that's fine we are mates after all. But what's queer is our daughter is lying unconscious in the hospital and for me it's rather odd.When Carla was sick a year ago, she couldn't even bear a pat on the back from me. Let alone a hug just to comfort her. I brush it off and convince her as Lee had requested.
"Honey, Dr Boyce has told me that you hardly left the hospital for the past two days. I want you to go out with the girls and check if Luna Ella can accompany you as well. I'll just freshen up then go meet with Luke and update him on my journey. Then I'll pass through the hospital and check on Summer. "
She smiled and complied. I on the other hand mentally released a sigh of relief. I didn't think she'd be that easy to convince. Hastily, I run upstairs to take a quick shower. Whilst getting dressed I try to communicate with my wolf.
" He
Summer POVOh dear I don't even know where to start. Am thrilled to have finally met my wolf. She's sassy yet adorable. She's dominant yet very compassionate. She oozes wisdom and confidence as well as love, care and compassion.I Know that I actually sound funny. But it's true. So currently we are in a world of our own. At first I could not even recall anything else except my name. Sunny, my wolf's name by the way. So Sunny here has been talking in riddles honestly. Then she's got this adorable thick accent. What I don't get though is why she speaks Spanish.I am a thousand percent sure that no one from my lineage is Spanish. Well, those that I know of. On either maternal or paternal side.So I've been going through a routine with madam Sunny. She says am too scrawny. Can y'all believe that.? So since she's got magic, (oops I didn't tell you now did I?) she's been treating me to five star meals every time.Right now we are
Summer's POVWhen they go out I lie there motionless. The pain is excruciatingly unbearable.I don't even know how I could survive this. I cry on the inside but it's like my tear ducts just dried up. A big part of me is in denial. I am so convinced that Sunny played one of her magic tricks on me just so I hate my family. But why? Why would she do that?I decide not to be biased and look back. I remember that every time my dad was not there mom has always treated me differently. Sometimes even when dad was there. If ever he asked she'd reprimand him saying I'm the first born and has to be taught to be responsible.In my heart of hearts, I've been really waiting for my wolf so I could leave home. Seeing as I am pretty intelligent and was ahead of my age mates, that wasn't gonna be difficult. I figured that a part of me has always felt unwanted. The big question now is, how come I'd forgotten about all these horrible experiences? 
Summer's POVI woke up after a while. Pain radiates through out my whole body. It's unbearable. My throat is burning and it's literally parched. It takes me only a few seconds to recollect everything.I've been sent back to my life two years back. From what it seems That's how all this really started. I recall my wolf's words. If I want this to be over I have to embrace everything. I try as much as I can to discern the whole situation. I have to understand why and know the motive behind everything. Sunny can only do so much for me but I have to gather enough strength to overcome my fears.I've understood why I could forget all these horrible experiences. Mama used to wipe off my memory every time it was done. It's my theory but I'm sure Sunny could have blocked it off but she let it be to protect me. I can't imagine how I could have survived this if it wasn't for Sunny.And my dad? He's completel
Summer's POVAfter reaching out to my dad, I just collapse and drift off into unconsciousness.I don't know how long I laid here for, but one thing is for sure; None of my family members returned home today. When I wake up, I notice that my clothes have dried. Still, I cannot feel my limbs though. I mentally encourage myself to at least try without just giving up.I decide that even if I have no physical strength, I still have my brain intact. I will do this mentally. I still have my mental strength. I know this is a memory. Yes, I might be reliving everything now, but the fact that I overcame then is enough for me.I keep telling myself that I can do it. I need to move from the floor. I need to change. I take a whiff of the air and I almost get a mental breakdown! I soiled myself! Literally defecated on myself."No no no Summer, this is not the time to give up. This is reason enough to push yourself to clean up!!"&n
Summer POV"Summer baby, please respond. Even if it's just lifting your finger. Let me know that you can hear me."I clearly hear my dad's broken voice. I mentally prepare myself for the hateful retort from my monster mom. But it remained quiet and I figured that for now dad was alone.For some reason I can actually hear everything but I just can't wake up. I decide to use this time to reflect on everything that's happened to me. I used to admire my parents' love believing that my dad was a wife doting husband. But am so disappointed to know that it's all a lie.The strongest and toughest wolf is merely a puppet to some vile woman. So whenever my dad disagrees with her opinion or decision, she'll just snap her fingers and he'll instantly grovel. Is she even his mate? I don't need to be a love expert to note that my mum definitely cheats ony dad. When that wicked paedophile whom she'd brought to the house to "Break me", came. Sh
Summer POVDr Boyce's words kept ringing in my mind."Will not be able to walk..., will not be able to walk..." I literally am crying on the inside. I can't be wheelchair bound honestly. I wonder how I went through all this and forgot. The only consolation I have is the fact that, this is only just a memory. I try to connect with my wolf but it's futile. I allow Mia to push me and I plaster a smile on my face.Honestly, there is no valid reason why I should sulk. At least am of the knowledge that this is just a memory. I've already been through this and survived it. The only difference is at that time, dear mama(note the sarcasm), was successful in wiping off my memory. Aunty Ella knelt in front of me and hugged me."I'm glad you're taking this well my dear. Rather I am surprised. I promise to be there for you and you already know your cousins adore you. Don't think much about it. Our home is your home. We are famil
Ethan POVTuesday morning. Argh, I hate week days. I don't even know why my dad insists on me going to school. We are wolves after all and can survive without all that.Besides we are quite rich and our pack ranks Fifth the world over. So we are quite powerful. In this region it's only the Luminous Pack that we bow to.Anyway, dad says I need that education since am soon to be the alpha of our pack. Inorder to successfully run the affairs of the pack I need the education.Sorry fellows. My name is Ethan Gray. I'm the first and and only son in my family. My father is the current alpha Daryl Gray and my mom is the current Luna , May Gray of the Grayhound pack.So this particular day I woke up feeling quite restless. I am 18 now and still haven't found my mate. I should have found her the day I turned 16 but I didn't. I really didn't care much but now I do. Reason being my dad insists he can only give me the alpha title the d
Summer POVAfter the Rejection I passed out. But I wasn't completely knocked off. I could faintly hear what was going on. When he carried me the pain eased up. I guess that's the mate bond at work. As he put me, the pain became excruciating again.Gradually it got better. Just as I was recovering, I doubled up in pain again. I felt as if my insides were being ripped out. What's going on?"Summer, have you found your mate yet?"I decide that I'm not gonna accept his existence if he rejected me so I shake my head no. Our nurse Jane just laughs awkwardly and say,"Oh silly me. of course you haven't found your mate, you're not even sixteen yet. It's just that the pain you're experiencing is similar to what I felt when my mate rejected me..Then this sudden pain in your abdomen is similar to the pain I'd feel whenever he'd sleep with another person."She stops and I can feel her pain. I see the
Summer POVThe pain is excruciating but my mind is not foggy anymore. I watch everyone running around in a daze. Dr. Boyce is now in his garb and instructing Hailey on what to do. I playback everything that just happened in a bid to ignore the pain. What can I do? I have to come up with a way to cope with it. 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? Everyone, except Michael, Aurora, mother, Hailey, and Doctor Boyce remained in the room with me. The others had to disperse. The truth is they just left the room but they are all huddles behind the door. Of course, I can scent them. My contractions are now coming every three minutes. According to Hailey, I am quite near.I am just glad that I have a brief moment of relief. This pain i
Summer POVWhen I hear someone whisper that despicable dark witch's name, something snaps in me. 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
Summer POV"Summer!"Hearing the anxiety in their voices I decide to fight the fatigue and force my eyelids to open.Squinting to shield my eyes from the bright light, I open my eyes tentatively. 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. Doctor's orders."He shrugs at the same time giving me the puppy eyes. I raise my hand to stroke his overgrown stubble and nod. Everyone watches with bated breath whilst I take my time to drink enough water."Before any of you bombard me with questions, can somebody te
Summer POVTime 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.
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
AzaniaSummer POV"Now let us re-cloak him with the invisibility spell. I am sure we all do not want any more surprises. 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. If we co
IncapacitatedLucifer's POVHe sweeps his huge tail and throws my captors all a distance away. Only grunts, gasps, and growls signify their annoyance and possibly pain."Jormungand quickly come over here. 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
