Heartbeats… Every time the doctor uses the fetal doppler Drake and I will always be in awe. It’s a confirmation of the life that was growing inside of me. Drake held my hand tighter as he bent down and kissed me. A smile on his face states exactly how we both feel. “Are you both still firm in not knowing the gender?” Our doctor asks smiling. I look at Drake as I opened a mind link with him. ‘You sure you still don’t want to know?’ I asked. He turned and looked at me, eyes shining happily. ‘Do you want to?’ he asked. ‘I’m fine with whatever you decide with baby,’ I replied. “No, Doc,” Drake answers. “Although we kinda have an idea of what our Little Wolf's gender is.” “I see,” Doc gave us a small smile. After the doppler and the ultrasound, the doctor advised that I could now change back to my clothes and asked us to meet him in his office after. Drake helped me change, and once we were done we step back into our doctor’s office. Drake help me sit down trying to make it
Nori carefully ease through the underground parking lot of the Purple Hill Mall which, I just found out was owned by the Purple Hill Pack. Nori said that most of the people from Purple Hill work here. They have a special schedule for single parents to accommodate them, it was flexible enough to make them end their shift before their child or children end their classes from the daycare/preschool in Purple Hill. As I spend more time with Nori I am being to see a lot of his good qualities. Just like being patient, he was not only with Mikey but with a lot of things. I also notice how he every situation and takes into consideration the people who are with him at the moment. I noticed how we passed by several open areas for parking but he did take it, I asked him about it all he said was he wanted to park somewhere near the entrance of the Purple Hill Mall. At first, I thought that it was just his preference but later I realized that it was because of me and Mikey. Once Nori secured the p
There is something about new books and how they smelled when you open their pages. The crisp sound of each page is like music to my ears whenever I turn each page. I know that most women enjoy new clothes or bags. But for me, I found my happy place in a bookstore. I left Nori and Mikey in the children's section as Mikey explore the world of fairy tales. ‘Don’t go too far,’ Nori said through our mind link, ‘Leave the channel open so that you can easily tell me when something’s wrong.’‘Got it,’ I replied back. As I continue browsing the fantasy section. Suddenly my phone buzzes. ==========================Drake: Where are you?Me: BookstoreDrake: NoriMe: In the Children’s section of the bookstore. He can still me baby and he opened a channel for mind link.Drake: Go to Nori now.Me: What’s wrong? Drake: We received a report of Rogue sightings at the mall. I need you to calm down and slowly go to Nori. Show him my message.Me: Okay.Drake: I’m going there baby, Nori knows what to
I sat on my chair as I watch Leon speak over the phone. I replay the way Athena looked earlier and I know that there is something more than what she led me to believe. I know that there is something that she is not telling me. I remember how she and Mikey were trembling when Calvin and I reached them. The Athena I know was never afraid, she was never scared. Whatever happened in the bookstore shook her. “Our trackers found an opening in the far side of the city. It seems like whoever destroyed the wall did it slowly,” Leon said. “Do you know how long it took before the wall gave in?” I asked. “Calvin and Nori are checking the site,” Leon replied. “They might give us a better idea of the status of the wall.”I nodded. “I think we should start with stage two of our new warrior's training,” Leon said. “The rogues that we have been seeing not only from our pack but also from our Alliance packs are starting to bother me. I just feel that these are just tests, like how strong each of t
I lay in our bed staring at the ceiling of our bedroom. Everyone was so busy with something today and all of them left after breakfast, even Nikki. Nicolo sent me a message earlier asking me if I want him to be my company for today. But I declined. There was something that I wanted to do and unfortunately, I can’t do it with him being closed to Calvin. I tried calling Aunt Jess, they told me she left to do some research about my father. But it’s been weeks since the last time that she had last called me. I am getting a bad feeling about it but I am trying my best to be positive. No news is good news, right? I checked everyone’s schedule and everyone will be out for the day. Nikki was needed to assist in Purple Hill’s preschool as my replacement so she will be out as well. My phone buzzes and I check the message. ==========================Lisa: We are on our way. Me: Take care.==========================I know that Drake wouldn’t allow me to be home alone. That’s why I know that
Every person has his or her own purpose in life. That each of us has a specific reason why we were born. There are moments when life would make it hard for us to understand our purpose. And there are also times when everything may seem to be working in our favor. The bottom line is we all have our own stories to tell. And it’s up to us if we want it to end as a happy story, a sad story, or a tragedy. Because we are the only ones who have the power to decide on how our story goes. The more that I listen to Aunt Connie, the more I realize how Drake’s family was also a victim of greed and power. I appreciate how much Drake’s father had valued Aunt Jess. That despite everything else he still did everything that he could to save her and my mother. Drake’s mom, on the other hand, had it harder, but regardless of all the pain, she had to endure she never became one of those people who hurt her. Instead, she did everything she could to save the people around her and make sure that her child
A lot has changed ever since I met Drake. Because I finally found a place that I can call my home and met people that I now call my family. Aunt Connie continued telling me stories about Ares and Isabel. I continued to try to find ways how to resolve our current problem without too much bloodshed. It’s funny how we can only achieve peace after fighting over it an ugly war. A war that was created by people who were poisoned by their greed. “I later found out that Isabel has the uses the forbidden power of black magic,” Aunt Connie said. Black magic, these words caught my attention. I remember the smell of Lavender and how smelling it can manipulate a person’s thoughts. I heard about magics and mages but I was not quite sure how it works. “Isabel didn’t age, nor did Ares,” Aunt Connie said, “When Drake got married to Isabel it seems like they were the same age. Little did he know that Isabel was really the same age as his Dad. Slowly, Atos noticed that the more grey hair he had,
It's been a while since we demanded answers from someone. Been a long time since we torture someone just to get it. I wouldn't usually use this kind of method but because the safety of my family and of Purple Hill rely on the information that we would be able to get from him. I allowed the use of any method if it meant that we would get answers from him. I watch as the arrogant rogue wolf looks back at us, a smirk appeared on his face.'Let me punch him,' Nori said through the mind link that he had opened for us, 'Let me remove that smirk from his face.''I see something,' Calvin said, as he showed us what he sees. In his vision, we saw someone wearing an old brown cloak gather the rogue wolves from Devil's Moon.The scene shifted and we see the rogue wolves from Devil's Moon retaliate and tried to fight the guy in a brown cloak but then a lightning-like light came out of his palm turning the rushing rogue wolves into dust. And then the vision ended.I finally understood why this rog
