Maliyah
I can’t believe what I woke up to. Dr. Smith has been examining me and taking MRI’s of my brain. I am still in shock at everything I am being told. Mom and dad tell me everything I appear to be forgetting. We take several breaks as I am constantly crying over things I have forgotten.
I remember some of the information they are telling me but not all of it. After a while I did start to remember the day my sister died but it still doesn’t feel real. I don’t remember being in a coma before and waking up to having another little brother. Uncle Kale died as well as uncle Gabriel and I haven’t been able to accept that yet.
Uncle Gabriel has been around all my life, even before I learned what I was. I never imagined I would have to live my life without him.
“Ma
DavinaWhen we all heard Derek and Maliyah playing I immediately mind link the whole pack to meet at the memorial. Our family gathered at it’s entrance, tears forming in our eyes. I haven’t heard her play in a long time. As pack members began arriving I open the back doors so they can hear too and started passing out candles and lighting them. Once everyone has a candle, I teleport Maliyah and Derek next to the memorial and they don’t miss a note. Families begin stepping up to the memorial and placing beautiful flower arrangements at the base.Dimitri utters a spell under his breath and tells me the flowers will never die, they will remain frozen in time. Celestia and Calista help pass out the Chinese sky lanterns and pens so everyone can write a message or just the name of a loved one that has been lost. I make one for my uncle Gabriel and parents that raised me as they now have no one le
DavinaThe twins have fallen asleep, Thierry on Derek, Accalia on Calista and Aiden in my arms. Everyone begins going home and we had back into the pack house. We lay the kids down for bed as does Mark and Daniela. It’s nice to see the children together, safe and sound and back to what was once normal. Things may not go back to what they were but we can find a new normal for our family.The last thing I do is prepare a room for my mother with the help of Kat and Daniela. We put her next to Calista as they seem to have hit it off and have become fast friends. I am over the moon that I get to have this opportunity to get to know my mother and learn more about my family. There is so much I don’t know.With mom back in the picture, it seems to have changed things for Kat. Now that Kat has been spending time with our mother and her granddaughter
DavinaI wake with a start that it startles Derek. Sweat is dripping down my face as Derek gently cups my face.“What’s wrong love,” he says looking around the room for an intruder.“I got to say goodbye to Malayah,” I whisper. He looks at me confused.“Okay, but what has you so scared?”I turn to Derek, making sure he is listening carefully. Worry is evident on his face as I take deep breaths to calm my racing heart. I need someone else to know what she told me.“Malayah said, ‘Beware of the new comer, darkness will come for her’.”“What does that even mean?”“I don’t know. I don’t even know exactly who she was talking about, but I think it’s Maliyah. I think she was talking about Maliyah and whoever Maliyah saw in t
Maliyah“Maliyah, the guests are arriving!”“Coming mom!”I quickly finish doing my hair in a half up pony tail style and curl it before doing my make up. I can’t believe it’s been almost five years since the war ended and here we are, celebrating my sixteenth birthday. I stop by my nightstand with my sister’s picture and use my powers to make the flowers in the vase bloom again.“Happy birthday sis,” I whisper as I head for the door.I throw on my Ariat boots, hoping towards the door as I put on one at a time. I almost collide with my door trying to put on my last boot as I grab the handle to open the door only to end up running into Aspen. I nearly fall backwards onto the floor, but Aspen reaches out and catches my arm to steady me.
Derek It has been five months since Malayah was kidnapped and the video of her being forced to kill Michael was sent. Davina has not been the same. She sits by the window in Malayah’s room and refuses to leave not even to see the twins or Maliyah. I think she is waiting and hoping for Malayah to come running through the trees back to her bedroom window. I have Dr. Ase comes about once a week to check on her. He hasn’t been able to get her to respond either. Dr. Ase said what she is going through is mental and as long as she continues to eat and drink physically she’s fine. We don’t have a pack psychologist at the moment. Poor Sally died when the hospital was attacked. I don’t have a wolf to replace her. Psychologists are typically needed in our world. Dr. Ase thinks if I can get through to Maliyah I might be able to get through to Davina. Both her children are hurting and she feels it. The girls’ eighth birthday passed and though Maliyah did not want to celebrate, we still had a sma
“I…I’m…I’m sorry,” she whispers as tears fall down her cheeks. “I’m sorry.” We hear crying down the hall and Davina looks out the door. She looks down at the shirt she’s been holding and up at the door again. “Davina you have three other children that need their mother. Just because you continue being a mother doesn’t mean you are going to forget about Malayah. I promise we won’t leave her behind.” I hold her hand and kiss the back of it. I can hear it’s Accalia crying down the hall. Davina sets Malayah’s shirt down on t her bed and walks to the nursery. I follow behind her. We enter the room and Accalia is standing in her crib reaching out for Davina. Davina walks over and picks her up, making Accalia to immediately stop crying. Davina holds Accalia close, swaying side to side to comfort our daughter. “I’m so sorry Accalia. Mommy’s here. I promise I am not going anywhere,” she whispers to our daughter. I look over and see Thierry woke up, pulling himself up so he’s standing, reach
Davina I didn’t think it would be so hard to have my story told again. It was definitely necessary that prince Aspen be aware of what has happened from start to finish. Derek squeezes my hand in support while prince Aspen is given a quick run down. It was even harder listening to prince Aspen tell us of Malayah killing again. We need to find her fast before he makes her do it again. Derek is excited to finally have this treaty completed. He told me it was a task his father was going to give him before everything happened. I am glad we were able to accomplish this. Now we have more warriors and trackers looking for our daughter. I think it’s time I arrange to go meet the dragons. “Prince Aspen?” “Please Davina, just Aspen,” he smiles. “Alright, Aspen. Would you be able to arrange for me to travel to your realm? I would like to meet with the dragons.” “I will certainly speak with the dragon elders. Some of them knew your parents Davina.” “Really?” “Yes, I’m sure they will have an
Maliyah I have never heard mom’s story before. She’s been through so much and it’s still not over. I have been trying for months to communicate with Malayah using our telepathy powers. Dimitri said we are twins so it should be more powerful that just mom trying to communicate with her. He even helped me to communicate when someone is in another realm. But so far it hasn’t been working. I get nothing. Derek still keeps the seal on my window so I can’t sneak out but at this point I wouldn’t. I don’t want to give Enzo more ammo against my parents. That and I already hurt a few of my guard and Derek trying to use my powers to break the seal open. I don’t want to hurt anyone else. I am super stoked to have prince Aspen train me. I know learning their skills will definitely give me what I need to kick uncle Mark’s butt. I have already mastered my powers like mom so it would be no fun beating him that way. I need to beat him at what he is good at, hand to hand combat. With Aspen leading
