Tossing and turning in the seat I feel something on my head. Scrunching my eyebrows together I move my hand on my head. Grabbing someone else’s hand. Flicking the person's hand away I hear laughing.
*groaning* I turn over facing the other way
“ Erik” I groan out with my eyes still closed
“ What pup?” His voice sounds closer than I thought it would.
“ what are you doing?” I pout tugging the blanket over my shoulders
“ Losing a bet” he laughed
“What?” I opened my eyes to see him sitting behind my seat. My seat is reclined all the way back into his lap. He took the headrest off making it easier for him.
Rubbing my eyes, I haven’t slept a wink since what I read last night. I’ve been trying to narrow down the possibilities of which person in his family I’m actually dealing with. But there’s so many I don’t know who it could be. Maddie only had one kid and that was Liam, but he has a death certificate. No one’s woken up yet so I’ve ordered room service for breakfast. And actually room service this time and not Ethan. It’s 5am and we don’t meet up with Alora till 10am. When a knock on the door rings through the room I left myself up off the couch and walk over, but before I could turn the door knob a hand is placed on top of mine and something hard is pressed against my back.“ I’ll get it.” Erik’s rough half asleep voice rumbled from behind me.Not wanting to argue, I step aside k
“ First, do you have a daughter?” Erik asked handing out menus for us to order food“ I do, what does she have to do with this?” She said stuttering“ Well, her father is the one who has asked for our help to find her.” I explained already figuring out what I wanted“ That's impossible.” She gasped “ He uh… he passed away about two years ago.” She mumbled “ rogue attack” she whispered lowering her voice because of other tables around us.“ What was his name?” I sighed thinking I already know the answer to this“ Liam Rome.” I can see the hurt still in her eyes as she spoke of him
“ Wake up!”“ Wake up!”“ no go.. away!” I yelled covering my head with the blanket“ no, you need to get up so we can leave. Tommy and the boys have already left with Alora and Ariebella.” He said pulling the blanket off me.“ stop! It’s cold!!” I yelled at him only to get laughed at“ What's so funny?” I groaned. Getting out of bed I stomp all the way to the bathroom slamming the door behind me. Rubbing my eyes I cut the shower on.“ don’t take a shower it’s cold outside.” He yelled knocking on the door. Shutting the shower off I s
“ how?” He growled through his gritted teeth“ What do you mean? You didn’t think I’d find out your real name? Or how much of a liar you are? See you link yourself to someone who isn’t stupid. I’m not just an angel loaded with magic. So why don’t you cut the crap and tell me what you really want.” I hissed with a straight face“ I’ve really underestimated you, Briella. But I think you’ve underestimated me as well. You are linked to me. That is ONE of my powers. I could end you by blowing up your mind, or making each blood vessel rub together like sandpaper making you want to die.” He smiled“ try me” I whispered“ Briella” Erik growled
Waking up this morning sucked ass. I’ve been having really bad morning sickness. I hung over the toilet since 3am this morning just throwing up anything and everything. Erik was worried sick at first thinking something was wrong, but when my mom woke up she just laughed and explained to him that it was normal and should pass. She sent him away from the bathroom to get me hot herbal tea and some soup. She’s been taking care of me all morning giving Erik the chance to finish up any necessary pack business. With Aurther in the cellar he’s been busy trying to get more information about him. I slept through dinner last night, so this morning was the first time I saw my mom since she got here. She was so excited, she started crying which made me cry. Dad was out of the room as fast as he walked in it. She said not to worry that he’s happy. He just can’t handle all the crying. Sitting at the kitchen table with my head down, I wait for Erik to bring me more t

*three weeks later* “ Why did you lie to us?” Sitting outside the cell on a chair I questioned Aurther. Erik and my dad didn’t think it would be a good idea for me to be on the inside. My stomach is bigger now and I’m eating more than usual. “ Why don’t you ask Erik?” He mumbled looking at him who is inside the cell with him as he spit out blood from the hits he’s gotten already “ what?” I asked looking at him “ nothing pup. Answer her” he growled “ Well as I’ve already told your mate here. She needs my help. If she gets her fathers power we are all screwed. She won’t know how to control it.” He smiled showing his bloody teeth
“ you did what??” My dad yelled and screamed at Erik for hours. I should feel bad for him but I don’t. We have two kids on the way, he should have talked to me about this before spilling everything out to someone he knows I don’t trust. I put our babies at risk when I cut out the bond that he had on me. Even today when I used it to electrocute him. Yeah that’s worse than what he’s done, but he could possibly have cost all of us our lives. Sitting on the porch swing I let the breeze from the brisk night flow through the pieces of hairs that have fallen out of my hair clip. I was listening in to their conversation but once it turned from a civil conversation to yelling I couldn’t listen to it. Not that my dad's yelling scares me, it's more of the flood of emotions I’m getting from Erik. I can tell he’s disappointed in himself but his ego is too big for him to admit that. The door opens without even looking. I know it’s Andrew.
“ Of course father. Let’s talk.” Aurther hissed“ Please you guys can have a private conversation in my office.” Erik announced making his voice louder than theirs. Andrew and Hunter showed them to Erik’s office I waited until the kitchen door closed behind them before turning my eyes back on Erik.“ what? Why are you giving me that look?“ he sighed knowing already what I was going to say.“Really do you need me to explain? You just gave him up as if you didn’t care what was going to happen next.” I yelled throwing my hands up in the air“ Whatever he would of did to Aurther would of been a lot better than him taking his anger out of our pack” he admitted
I woke up this morning enjoying the two bundles of joy inside my stomach. I woke up this morning happy. We picked out our house and I love it, it’s huge and has plenty of room for everyone. Then reality sets in. James is on his way here. I don’t know what he is going to do or if everyone here will make it out alive after it’s all over. What if he is coming for war? And the talk he wants to have with me and Erik is just a distraction. But what if he doesn’t want to fight and we push him towards it by throwing Amanda in his face? How do I know what I’m doing is the right thing? Pushing myself out of bed I freeze. I freeze with my feet pressed against the ground.“ He’s here” rings through my head. I repeat this to myself over and over again as if I can’t seem to let it sink in the way it should.&l
“ sir? What do you want us to?” He asked me over and over again but I wasn’t quite sure how I wanted to go about this. If Aurther is alive and kicking would Liam be? No, that's impossible. I buried him myself. Rubbing the back of my neck with my hand I paced back and forth in my office. I can’t help but wonder what all Aurther heard. Has he been able to read mh thoughts all these years? I remember what happened that night Liam died. And that night Aurther ran away for good. He was so angry with me without letting me explain. His foolishness ended with his brother's death. Not that I’m surprised he’s never cared about this pack or anyone else other than himself. Stopping in one spot by the book case when the office door opens up and my head warrior walks in again probably to ask what we are doing. “ trucks are ready sir” was all he said. I’ll admit I was kind of surprised they took matters into their
“ YOU DID WHAT??” He yelled at me over and over again. I don’t think he meant it in a way to hurt my feelings more or in a way to show how angry he was about me telling Aurther to alert his father without discussing it with him first. I just sat here listening to everything he had to say. All his worries and concerns. He even expressed to me how he was worried that if I did get hurt in battle I'd even notice because of my reaction from the glass cutting my stomach. And if I’m being completely honest I haven’t thought about that at all. It was odd that I didn’t notice, maybe it was because of the twins' powers. I haven’t even considered them in the situation of getting hurt either. I know that has to make me sound like a bad mom. But with the way they are protecting themselves I’m sure they will be fine. Right? But I also believe even being this far along that I can still protect myself. I haven’t h
Later that yesterday afternoon, Erik and I decided we needed to move out of the pack house. With two kids coming we knew they would be trouble and the pack house is made for business. After deciding this I couldn’t stop thinking about it, honestly I haven’t been shopping for the babies at all either. I mean I’ve gotten a few things here and there when we go to the store for other things but I haven’t been really shopping for them for all the big things. He agreed that we would go and look at houses after all of this is over, so I might ask to go shopping some as well. Sitting in the bathroom on the toilet I work up the courage to get up on my own. Only being a few months pregnant they are already twice the size a normal baby would be by now. One loves to press against my bladder at all ends of the night. Pulling my pants up I wobble over to the sink to wash my hands and face. My face is all broken out and my feet are so swollen
“ So what's the plan?” Amanda asked, holding an ice pack to her face. Just a few minutes Alora saw her flirting it up with one of the pack members and didn’t hesitate to let her know how she felt about it. It’s been years since they’ve been together but obviously Alora isn’t over it even though she was married to Liam. I wonder if she actually loved Liam then?“ Aurther still has a connection to his father, but he says he has a wall up so his father has no idea. Just hearing from Aurther like that could make him furious. Which will spark the flame and lead him right here. That’s where you come in.” I answered by passing over a cup of coffee to her. With getting punched in the face by her ex I felt like they needed it. Her hair is bright red and skin is fair. Her eyes are bright light brown color almost like honey. I let her borrow some clothes from girl
We got back to the hotel room. I'm surprised no one flinched seeing the big dude carrying a girl who seemed to be struggling and in need of help. Erik held on to her as Hunter grabbed the desk chair from one of the rooms and rope that I didn’t know we brought with us. With Hunter and Andrew standing by the chair he placed her in the chair. In the blink of an eye she was tied to it like a prisoner.“ We aren't going to hurt you” I said, trying to soothe the situation.“ Oh really?? Then why did your men kidnap me and tie me up like a wild animal?” She hissed yanking on her arms.“ Because we need to talk and you are obviously a flight risk.” Andrew explained placing a bottle of water to her lips as if she’s been sitting there for hours now.
The plane finally landed and I decided to keep what I read to myself till we got to the hotel. We still aren’t sure where Amanda is but I’m sure they have a lead on where she could be. We took a cab to the hotel which felt longer than the plane ride. Once we got there I still wasn’t allowed to help carry anything so I talked to the guy at the front desks to check us in. He was nice enough to give us a room here on the first floor since the elevator seemed to be down. Which is my luck since that happened at the last hotel we were at. Opening our hotel room I was amazed at how big it was. And the view was just as beautiful.“ Hey, I got to tell you something.” I mumbled into his head he looked me up and down making sure I was okay before responding.“ yeah?” He kept eye contact with me making it more and more
