AMERICA DAVIESFear gripped me by the throat as the whole thing unfolded before my eyes. Just how terrible of a person had I become and how many more people would I hurt?"I really am a monster.""No you are not!" She squeezed my arm. "I want you to just quietly watch this okay?" I turned to her with teary eyes and nodded silently. There I was, holding Cara in my arms when she was only months old. I remembered it all like it happened just yesterday. She stared into my eyes with so much adoration and I knew how special she was. She wasn't like her siblings, she always wanted to be by my side twenty four seven, unlike Dara and Lara who always wanted to be outdoors, playing with other kids. "He was there with you that day when you sat outside your porch with Cara in your arms, he recorded the whole thing because he believed it was so beautiful." Celestia explained. The flash drive was filled with hundreds, if not thousands of videos and pictures of me when I was pregnant and after I
TRAVIS SKYWolfsbane, if only he had spoken up quickly. Why would he even keep such a thing to himself? He knew how dangerous it was to him but he remained quiet. "What are we going to do Travis?" Alaric questioned."He has too much wolfsbane in his system and it is killing him slowly, we need to start treating him right away." "Nothing is going to happen to him right?" Celestia asked as she held my hand. I gave her a reassuring smile. "Of course, he is a part of our pack and we wolves stick together, we are a family." I responded as I took her hand in mine and gave it a gentle squeeze. America had remained motionless since they arrived, it was evident that a lot was going through her mind at the moment. She was probably blaming herself for it. "How did it happen?" I turned to face Alaric."Darby… Darby has been seeing this rogue for a while now and he apparently had been disturbing her about being introduced to us. Dylan of course didn't trust him so he attempted to get close to
AMERICA DAVIES"Where is Travis?" Celestia asked.I locked the door behind me and dropped every window blind. "I think there is a rogue on our tail and he wants to handle it alone." "Will he be okay?" "He is the alpha, he will be fine." I forced a smile on my face. I was more worried than she was but I didn't want to show it."I have given Dylan some sedatives for the pain which will also help him sleep better." "Already?" "Yeah." She forced a smile. "What about the kids?" I asked as I walked towards the couch to sit down."For the first time ever, I sent them to their grandmother's place at the best time." She expressed with a chuckle. "Oh I see." I smiled. "I think you better call her to let her know that--" the sudden sound of a gunshot echoed through the compound and I felt my heart seize. "No!!!" Travis' voice rang through our ears and we both ran to the door. "Someone has been shot!" Celestia stated. "Wait, let us see through the window if it is any safer for us out th
TRAVIS SKY"Where are they? Where are they?!" She yelled loudly as she ran to me. She grabbed me by the collar. "Where are my children Travis?!" She yelled out with teary eyes."I don't exactly know! Okay! But I know they are alive and I met Cara." "What?" "I remember her from all the pictures you showed me. She is even more beautiful in person. I made sure to keep her safe and I will do it all over again." "Where was she? Is she okay? Where did you meet her?" "I don't know. I was knocked out and I woke up tied with an ox rope to a chair. Remember when I told you I had my encounter with the rope too? I broke out of it with a strength I did not know I had but she was the reason, I wanted to protect her. That was what was strong enough to cut the ox rope, my love for her, our children." She fell to her knees and began sobbing. Both Alaric and Celestia looked at me confusedly but probably also felt like I was not a true friend. Knowing that much and keeping it to myself. I bent to
AMERICA DAVIESThe thought of another enemy on our tail was very scary. We had more than enough people to deal with already. "What are we going to do now?" Celestia questioned."Things are going to change and get a lot harder for us, especially after you almost killed your wife today Travis." Alaric pointed out. "I think you should have been more gentle with her instead of acting all crazy in front of her friends or whoever they might have been." Celestia said. "I don't mean to be rude though.""No I understand your point, I know I shouldn't have acted like that but I was really angry and I let it get the best of me. But the good part is we found out a crucially important information." Travis spoke up."We need to be extra careful from now on and always watch each other's backs." "Exactly. I guess we have to lay low for now, though Darla said that none of their boys are watching us anymore and I believe her words but I don't trust her mother, I believe she knows she gave birth to a
TRAVIS SKYFor the past few days, it had been oddly peaceful and quiet around the house. Darla didn't talk to me since the last incident and I couldn't blame her.She made meals like a normal wife would, she comes to my room without saying a word to me then picks up my dirty laundry to do them. She never disturbed me with any complaint on my recent activities or bombarded me with questions on days that I stayed out a little later or didn't even go home until the next morning.I was starting to freak out so I decided to seek advice from someone more experienced than me."What do you think she is trying to pull off? I'm getting really scared just sleeping in the house lately." "Hmm…" Alaric placed a curious hand on his chin. "From my experience, she wants you to apologize to her in a grand way that will definitely make her heart flutter and probably, if possibly, bring tears from her eyes." "What? There is no way I'm going to try to make that witch's heart flutter, I'm not asking you
AMERICA DAVIES'What have I done? Why did I ever trust Kurt in the first place? Could what Travis said about me be true? Am I really a thoughtless person who waits for others to fill her mind with lies? What is wrong with me?'"America…" Celestia called out as she walked towards my bed and sat next to me. "You have been crying here for hours, you locked yourself at home for three days straight! When will you gather yourself together?" "I have lost everything! Celestia, everything that I have ever lost!" I exclaimed as I sat up in bed. I couldn't control my emotions anymore, I couldn't even control anything about myself anymore."And who says that it has to be lost forever? You can still find it if only you work hard and act strong!""But I can't! You saw his reaction that day, he is never coming back to me." "Listen doll, Travis is a lot more complicated than you think. He has changed from the man you used to know. Eight long years, we all know he secretly waited for you and prayed
TRAVIS SKYThe one person I had been trying so hard to rid my mind of her thought was standing right in front of me. At first I was surprised at what she was doing at my parents' place, but then I reminded myself that I wasn't supposed to care about what ever it is she might do unless it physically involved me."Travis?" I heard my mom ask from the living room.She opened her mouth like she was about to speak but I shoved past her and went inside. She could choke on what ever it is she wanted to say for all I care."Mom… it's been…" "Forever. Come here." She stretched her arms towards me.I went to her and wrapped her in a warm embrace. I had so much missed being in the arms of my mom. I felt tears build up in my eyes as my mind reflected on how stupid I had been. Turning my back against my own family for a woman that didn't think twice before fleeing from me again."It feels so nice to finally see you and hug you in my arms. I feel like I have been waiting since forever!" Mom excla
AMERICA' POV With a shuddered breath, my hand dropped to my side, the dagger in my hand no longer being a threat to the cunning wolf that was standing in front of me.Just in case he tried to be funny, I kept the dagger unsheathed and tightened my grip around the hilt. He let out a sigh that transformed into a smile. "Not many would have done what you just did." "You promised not to hurt me and I belie-- well I want to believe you. Plus, I want answers and you are my only chance at getting them." I tried to keep my voice confident, not wanting him to know that even with such a powerful dagger in my hand, I was feeling threatened by his presence. Though I kept my back straight and chin up, it was obvious that he could sense the fear in me thanks to his taunting smirk. I never for once paid attention to Kurt in my entire life. Never did I stop to stare twice at him enough to actually engrave his looks in my head like I did with Travis but standing in front of him... I realized he w
TRAVIS’ POVThe black sack was pulled away from my head and I was finally home. I limped towards my porch and sat there for a minute, trying to catch my breath. The wound kept bleeding like it would be the end of me. Such a close shot could have actually ended me or put me in a worse situation than I currently was. "We did it," I breathed heavily, pressing my hand against my wound. "We made it back home. Now to find help that--" The door to my apartment pushed open and Darla came hurrying towards me. "Travis!" She yelled out, pretending to be worried. "Oh my goodness! You need help!" She crouched down beside me. "I know what to do, I'll--""Stop." I muttered, cutting her off. "Go away from me." "What?" She squinted at me. "I said go away from me!" I growled as I shoved her to the ground with my remaining strength. "Is this fun to you? Huh? Tell me! You sick psycho!" My eyes grew wider every time I yelled. She landed on the floor with a thud. Her eyes widened as she stared surpri
AMERICA'S POVMin glared at me for more than a second. Her hands remained pressed to her hips and her eyes gave a disapproving glare. I sighed. "Listen, I don't mean to hurt you more than you are already hurting but you only lost one child to the dark side and look how sad you are! I cannot lose all three of my children!" "I am not asking you to leave them like you don't care. I just want you to think carefully before every single one of your actions!" "Well there's no time!" I exclaimed, my voice louder than I had intended. I advanced towards her and took her hands in mine. "Min there is no time to think twice about an action before doing it! "I have to hear what Kurt has to say and then ask him my own questions! You know, so far he has been of good help to me... Well sometimes... Like he gave me this dagger!" I took out the dagger from my pocket and showed it to her. Her eyes widened. "That dagger is dangerous! It can kill a wolf without you even striking hard. How did he..." S
TRAVIS' POV My eyes fell close as tears trailed down my face. I tried to bury out the cries of my own children as they were being dragged out of the room. The sound of the aluminum door slammed shut loudly, silence following after and I rose to my feet. "Why do you have to be so heartless? Huh? They are children!" The anger I felt course through my veins was stronger than ever. "If you do not learn to keep a lid on that temper of yours then those children will cease to exist! You hear me!" She yelled out. "Why do you have to go so far, Natasha? Don't you want America out? She'll leave this place and never return the moment you let her children go! Are you so blind not to see that? Besides, I got the stuffed wolves! Why won't you let them go?!" She broke out in a sinister laugh. "Oh unfortunately my dear, those stuffed wolves didn't signify anything, my daughter and I were just toying with you." "What?" I squinted. "Yes my dear, sadly, it isn't as easy as you think.
AMERICA'S POVMin looked so hesitant to speak, like the former words had left her mouth by accident. But the sooner she realized it was already done, the better. She let out a sigh. "Your mother... She already loved your father before since they were kids. And kids make mistakes. At fourteen, she had gotten pregnant for him and though they were young, they insisted on keeping the baby. "It would be wrong for me to call it a mistake but that it was. She refused help from all of us, even her parents, who are your grandparents. Your father supported her blindly. So it became that a child raised a child. "She gave him everything, too much of everything. He grew up to be a good kid surprisingly but when he became a teenager, he wanted to do things his own way." She paused thoughtfully and sighed. "What happened to him?" I questioned her, trying to make my tone firm and commanding. But how could I dare to command an alpha female? Yet she succumbed to my wishes and went on. "When he was
TRAVIS’ POVTears welled up in my eyes as I stared at them, the three beautiful flowers right in front of me. I had never seen anything so beautiful and charming. Cara's smile alone shattered my heart, not to mention all three of them together. I blinked back my tears, not wanting to cry in front of them. "You..." My voice croaked and I coughed to clear my throat. I sniffed. "You love me?" They all nodded their heads. Dara moved forward towards me. "Mommy always told us how much she loves you and that we should love you too." His lips turned downward. "Sometimes... I get jealous because she is always looking at your picture and thinking of you." Lara touched my knee and smiled. "It almost feels like we grew up with you. We celebrated your birthday too! We are always so excited because on that day, mom always buys the biggest cake and she allows us to finish everything! She always eats so much cake that her eyes begin to sweat.""Sweat...?" It took a second before I understood. "Oh.
AMERICA DAVIESI couldn't imagine what I was seeing at the moment. From what I had heard, that Ishmael of a person was the bad guy in the story and his boys were rogues that also wanted me dead. I knew that everyone had warned me about Kurt but I never expected him to be part of the people trying to kill me. Why would he give me his very own occultist dagger? It didn't just make any sense, not even the slightest bit. I took another peak through the hole just to make sure I was seeing the right thing and it wasn't just my mind playing tricks on me."So the gem is no longer on the stone, that only means one thing, she somehow managed to find you freaks and the stone called her, blah blah blah. I really don't have the time to keep coming here over and over and over again, we have no cause to even keep meeting like this, you already banished me from your pack mom so I don't see why we should still be seeing each other on a daily basis." Kurt made eye contact with Min for a second, his
TRAVIS SKYThere wasn't a single word to express the way I felt at that particular moment. But one thing was for sure, I felt like a failure. I had failed to be the perfect alpha, the perfect partner, the perfect son, and the perfect dad. In chains, the triplets were dragged in by the ruthless man that kept yelling at them. The three of them looked pale, weak and scared. They had been in the clenches of whoever the kidnapper might be for a year while I did nothing but fight with their mother and cum in the mouth of another woman. I was engulfed with shame as I saw them walk in. For a moment, I felt relieved that they hadn't known me as their father. A failure like me that couldn't even lead his own pack. But regardless of that, they would still be in so much fear and would think of me as one of the bad guys. "Well Travis, you have done so well in torturing that wretched no good, low life girl that I felt so proud of you! I wanted to reward you with something so great, something th
AMERICA DAVIES"I think I am not mistaken when I say that you have got the wrong woman." I nervously said as I watched them kneel in front of me. "You are perhaps a descendant of Damodred, am I right?" The woman that was pointing a gun at me earlier said as she rose to her feet. "Damo what now? My name is America Davies." "America! I remember!" "What do you remember?" "I was there when your mother gave you that name." She said with a warm smile on her face. "Wait, what are you saying? Do you know my mom?" "America, come with me. There is so much that you don't know and you need to know them." "No wait, I don't understand what is going on here, you were talking about my mother just now, who is she to you? How do you know her?" "America… I understand that you are feeling perplexed right now, who wouldn't?" She said as she slowly started towards me. "But I can tell you so much more than you think. There are things that I will tell you that will change your life forever and your
