Celeste’s POVZeus takes Hati from my home and the land it resides on, in fact I can attest to the fact he takes him from the god realm and back down to earth.I clean the house late into the night, riding any trace of either of them in my home.Scrubbing on my hands and knees like a pea sent human that I once was.What is Zeus’s game and why am I being forced to take part in them?He already assured me many months ago Hati would not live beyond this life and I’ve put plan into place to destroy his soul once it is recalled home.But now he’s making Hati beg for sun a thing to materialise as if I hadn’t already been given the instruction to do so.Zeus seems to like his pie and eat it, even if that means he makes a fool of those around him.The dining chair Hati residing in not hour ago is soaked through with detergent and water as I use the scrubbing brush to rid his stench from the material.I’m not sure why I bothered, I could have just burned it and asked the house for a new one bu
Theo’s POVLoraMs been rather unsettled this afternoon. Crying non-stop despite my trying to calm her.It’s gotten so bad that Lilith asked if she needed to come home.Of course I told her we would be fine, and that I can handle it but I’m sure she’ll walk through the door at any moment.I had planned to get work done whilst Lora lay in her bouncer but I’ve long since given up on the idea of getting anything done.So here I lay on her bedroom floor with her, the little overhead toy keeping her somewhat entertained.I over east instead how quickly Lilith would come home, but she does come back earlier than expected.Come two pm, as the others remain out on the training field she walks through the door and immediately comes upstairs towards us.She stands at the opening on the bedroom, in the doorway staring at Lora fighting sleep in my arms.I’m in the rocking chair, rocking us both into a sleepy haze.“Still unsettled?” She asks.I admire her from way over here. Appreciative of the ro
Lilith’s POVLora was so tired that she fell asleep at my breast menacing I could only hear the grumbles of those boys in the yard.I had hoped to face them with Theo and Khai at my sides but Lora comes first.She’s been settled up until today and I’m not entirely sure what’s wrong with her.Sure the doctor stated she would get used to the pregnancy but surely her upset isn’t to do with the twins now?My hand rubs my tummy at the thought of them. They’ve been moving a storm today and I had forgotten just how that feels.With Lora I can’t particularly remember them moving so much, but then again is that because I hadn’t known about her for long before I gave birth?And there’s two this time, so surely there’s less room for them to move around my womb.I’m probably more stunned this time, knowing what to expect.I lay Lora down in her cot, turning the lights out her night light and sound machine on to ensure she stays asleep and then I head downstairs.Theo, Khai, Arlo and Calley are si
Khai’s POVAfter such a long day of behaving myself when all I wanted to do was make examples of the warriors that were bath mouthing our she-wolves off, I needed to take some time to calm my frayed nerves.And I chose to help Theo with paper work.It’s not my desired activity but it sure has grounded me.But nevertheless I still feel the need to connect with Lilith on that level that will blow my mind and take the stress away.I don’t think it helps that all she’s thought about since leaving the office is just that.The mate bond allowing me to feel her need and no doubt Theo too.I help pack away the files, and ensure the office is locked before I bound up the stairs two at a time.Theo chuckles behind me but I have no doubt he’s just as needy as I am, even if he can control his urge to walk the stairs one at a time.When I open the door, Lilith’s scent and her moisturiser hit my nostril making Obsidian wake from his early evening slumber.He growls, and in turn that makes me growl.
Celeste's POVAlthough I leave the room, I'm in a panic.What should I do?Should I allow for this continue?Why didn't I rid the soul, make the child a fallen child?Their fate is in my hands, their life on my terms. I could stop this catastrophe from happening, yet I choose not to.I allowed for the soul to slip from my hand into the pool where it will eventually be recalled back down to earth.And why? I hear you ask.Well it's simple really. The girl, the mother, the little witch, Belle.She's why.She's another piece in my game with Hati, and now I've put her in harms way.Aligned her future and that of her child with the devil that I'm trying to let go of. It how can I take his life when he has a family now?Things have become so complicated, deeply and irrevocably complicated. And as I think of my granddaughter, the one that bonded with the wolf that had never had a spectate mare besides Hati, I wonder what this will mean for her future.Christ things are going from bad to di
Theo’s POVHaving Lilith once last night was not enough to satiate Khai or I.We took her both by ourselves, watching as voyeurs in between as we the other took their turn and then once again together.And she was up for everything we had to give but our extra activities have left her feeling tired so instead of making her get up, I allowed her to roll over and rest.Khai has Lora this morning whilst I attend to the meeting I’ve called with the warriors that chose to single out the new women. I will not, categorically have my men put down the women of this pack.If there’s one thing I’m not, it’s sexist.Yes, I have chosen to protect our women over the years by not allowing them to join but that was never because I felt a lack of worth from them.It was for my own selfish need to ensure the women around me were protected as my mother wasn’t.I walk into the middle of town, finding the warriors sat there waiting for me with bored looks on their faces.It’s been a long while since I’ve
Lilith’s POVMy sleep is heavy and keeps me under. I’m dogbone tired after lasts nights escapades and despite myself I cannot drag myself out of the dreams that are constantly taking me.The memories of the day I came here is running through my mind, and I’m unsure why I’m seeing that day so vividly. Why my memories are fading in and out with Theo’s.Am I supposed to be seeing this, is my dream telling me something?My mind runs the reel yet again. I remember those feelings of not knowing my name, or where I came from. I couldn’t place my parents, not that I had any but that day I hadn’t known that. No I searched my kind for any memories of parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts or uncles but I came up short as I lay there in the water that travelled me through to Theo’s land.Images morph again, I’m wandering the woods for hours, maybe half a day the sun moving in the sky as the trees above protect me from the rays. It was light at the waters edge but as I walk, the sun sets, the
Lilith's POVI'm walking through the greenest of grass towards a lady standing in a white gown at the top of the hill in front of me. Her beautiful honey hair flows out behind her as the wind catches it. It takes me an age to walk to her, every few steps it's as if I'm being pulled back, turn't around but I eventually get to her. Or she gets to me, I'm not sure."Lilith" she calls snapping my attention from the floor to her "it's so lovely to see you again child.""It's nice to see you too... who are you?" I ask."Why Celeste of course but you can call me Leste.""As in our creator?" I ask as she guides me to a bench. Theo's voice comes out of nowhere making me look around for him though I cannot find him."Lil... Lilith wake up. We cannot cross these borders. Lilith... Lil... Jesus don't make me breach the border come back. Lil?...Lilith""It's no use, when she's in the other realm she cannot communicate in this realm" there's that voice again, the man that saved me the other day..
