As I was lying under that cabinet I heard other people in the room start to move around as well, so I kicked the cabinet off of me and I had a few cuts from the broken gass off the doors, but it wasn't anything serious. I got to my feet as fast as I could and Levi was getting to his feet. " I'm going to kill you for this." Levi says. And suddenly I shifted into my wolf and I crouched down daring him to kill me. So he also shifted and bared his teeth at me. Which is exactly what I did to him. He attacked me first and I was able to fend of the attack by side stepping it and then he grabbed my back leg and I whimpered in pain before I kicked my leg backwards and spun around growling at him. He charged at me again and I was prepared. We hit head on in a thunderous clash while snarling and trying to rip at each other. Levi was going for my throat and I was doing everything that I could to not leave my throat exposed. I was using ever tool that Asher had taught me to protect myself.
There was obviously a whole media circus around what was going on with the town blowing up and us being right in the middle of it. But the military and the Govenor and officials backed up 100% of the way. Saying that these humans would be dead if it weren't for us. And the man responsible was now dead. Definitely dead this time with me killing him and a witness to the fact that he wasn't getting up like he did last time. It took ages for things to settle down for us but once they did, we were happy to just be back at home. Living our lives. Trying to stay off the radar of the humans. Just because they knew that we existed now, didn't mean we were going to use that to our advantage to go out amongst them all the time. We were still keeping to our territory and making sure that everything there was running smooth. And the people that were still unknown werewolves were going to stay like that. Because a lot of them worked in human towns and wanted to just live their lives without the
Asher jumped up from his seat in such a sudden move that it got everyone's attention and I grabbed his hand to get him to calm down. " We're got hours yet." I say. " No. We don't. We need to go." He practically screeched. " What's going on?" His mother asked racing over. " She's in labour. We need to get the bag and go to the hospital." Asher said loudly. And now everyone knew that I was in labour. " Oh my god. Is it happening now?" Freya asked. " Oh my god." I groaned. " Would everyone calm down. Asher, get the bag and we'll go to the car. Just calm down. Cole will help me to the car. I'll meet you there." I demanded. " Alright. I can do that." He says running inside and Cole helped me stand up and walked me around the side of the house to the car that was out the front. Asher came running outside with the bag and threw it in the back and I looked at Cole. " Do you think you could drive? I don't want him killing us on the way there." I say. " No worries." Cole says. S
ASHER POV I don't even remember telling myself to move but I was on my feet in a flash. A gutteral growl escaped my chest and I looked back down at Ivy. I kissed her on the forehead and then I barged out of the room past Beau. " Freya. Stay in that room with your sister and let me know the second she wakes up." I ordered. So Freya ran back to Ivy's room and inside. By the time I got outside there was already a huge gatherine of people wanting to help me find my son. " Alright. The whole territory is on lockdown. We've tripled patrols around the entire state. There's no way this person is leaving the territory. We have a lot of ground to cover but luckily it will be light soon. There are thousands of us and only one of them. She was dressed as a nurse and she left alone. There was no one waiting for her outside and she didn't get in a car so we know that she's on foot. Search every inch and house on this territory. Now go." My Beta Kai ordered everyone. He had done his homewor
IVY POVI was slowly become aware of this irritating beeping noise near my head. I didn't know what it was and I didn't even know where I was. I slowly opened my eyes to a lightly dimmed room and I realized that I was in the hospital. Things started coming back to me slowly. My birthday party. Going into labour. The emergency c-section and then there was nothing. I don't remember anything. But I heard this weird gargling noise. I slowly turned my head slightly to the right and I saw Asher sitting in a chair next to my bed feeding a baby wrapped in a blue blanket. He lifted the baby up and started burping him and his eyes then flashed over to mine and he saw me watching. " Ivy." He says almost breathlessly. " How did the c-section go?" I asked. " The baby is fine. You had some complications." Asher says leaning forward. " What do you mean?" I asked. " You're in the ICU. You've been here for three days." He says. " What?" I almost choked out but my throat was so dry that i
IVY POV A YEAR LATER It was now Connor's first birthday and the whole pack seems to have come out to celebrate. And to say that he got spoilt with presents is an understatement. He was the most spoilt child in the world right now. But he was loving the attention. It wasn't anything new to him. He was the furture Alpha and people were always willing to do things for him. It got to a point where I had to tell people to back off otherwise he would never learn to do anything for himself. And I wasn't going to have him that spoilt where he depended on omega's to wipe his own ass. Asher was really biusy these days with the werewolf council and our pack that seemed to be getting bigger all the time. I actually suggested turning people away, but because of our reputation, they wanted to join our pack. And train with our pack. We even had other packs sending their warriors to our pack to train before going back to their own packs. A lot has changed since Levi was gone. Freya was still in
When I finally come out of my daze I kick into gear and start setting up rooms on the ground and first floor of the packhouse to accomodate those whose houses were just lost in the explosion. Asher had to go and help at the village but it was my responsiblity to make sure that our pack members were taken care of. Connor was very clingy after that and I needed to do everything while holding him and the omega's were cleaning up from the party. It wasn't really a celebration anymore. And I had to admit, I was pissed that my son's first birthday was ruined like this. Just like the day he was born and was kidnapped. Are any of his birthday's going to be alright? Or is he going to be forever damned to have shit happen on his birthday. I had to put that thought out of my head and I continued making sure that everyone was compfortable while other pack members had helped by donating some of their clothes and belongings that they didn't want anymore. And the ships in town did the same thing
" We've pissed off a lot of people Asher. But I can't imagine any other werewolf wanting us dead." I say. " It wasn't a werewolf. There wasn't a scent. They couldn't find a scent to follow." Asher says. " You think it was human." I say. " We know that the human's are divided when it comes to werewolves. No matter how many times we save their lives, there are always going to be ones that are scared of us. And sometimes, they take it to the extreme." He explains. " I know. How do we find out who did it?" I asked. " I don't know. Not yet. We'll figure it out." He says. " Well, we have to start looking into extremists who are known for this type of shit." I say. " That would be a good start." He says. So Asher started looking into all extremist groups and previous groups that were protesting the existence of our kind. Some were not to happy when the government started working with us instead of killing us all off. I needed to make sure that no one else in the house found o
I ran to Noah to make sure that he was still alive, and I let out a huge sigh of relief when I saw that he was still breathing. He was bleeding and he was injured, but he was alive. " I knew that was the only way to get you alone." Nick says from the door behind me. I turned around slowly and stood up. I was looking for a way out, but I couldn't get out. Not with Noah. I couldn't carry him. He was too big and heavy for me to carry. I was trapped. I wasn't leaving him here alone. " What did you do with Asher?" I asked. " You don't need to worry about him anymore. No one does." Nick smirked at me. " No." I screamed. " Well, you bought them here. You knew what I was. All this blood is on your hands." He says. " Why the hell would I ever want to have anything to do with you? Asher and Ivy are the only ones in this world that have never treated me like shit or tried to use me for my powers. I know that you were going to." I yelled as tears were falling down my face. " Are yo
It only took about half an hour to run to the house while in wolf form because we cut through the woods and we were really fast. It was fun running in wolf form though. I loved it. But when the house came into sight I got a sinking feeling in my stomach. The house was huge. Almost like a mansion but luckily it had a huge yard, because there were other houses next to it. We didn't want civilians getting hurt. And no one said anything about evacuating civilians. So Asher wasn't going to tell the neighbours what was going on. I guess he didn't want to tip Nick off as to what was happening. I looked up at the house and all the windows were blacked out and the sun was just starting to appear but it was still dark. So I shifted back and I quickly got dressed. Noah shifted back for a moment and he grabbed my hand and pulled me to him to kiss me. " I love you." He says. " I love you too. I'll see you soon." I say. And I started walking to the house. As soon as I got to the front doo
My life was compeltely different from what I knew it as. My days were spent with Ivy training with my powers and training how to fight. She was an awesome teacher and I'm glad that I got her instead of the warriors. She was tough on me but she wasn't insanely tough like the other instructors were on the trainees. Noah and I weren't seeing too much of each other. He was going to school and then working after school but we still managed to have dinner together at night and we tried to watch a movie or something to have a bit of time together. Ivy told me that was important. To make sure that we spent as much time together as possible. I guess she knows that from experience. I've heard all the stories of her being kidnapped and going missing and even Asher. They were horrific stories to me and I couldn't do that to Noah. I wanted to make sure that I spent as much time together with him as possible. I knew that they were already making plan to attack Nick's hideout but they were wa
As soon as we got the news that we knew where Nick was staying then Ivy was right on top of me about getting control of my powers. We needed me to learn how to control my powers so I don't hurt the people around me and I only hurt the people I intend on hurting. So she took me to the training grounds that she reserved just for us and we sat on the ground and crossed our legs. " Now, with powers like this meditation is the key to being able to control what you are going to do." Ivy says. " I've never really been one to meditate." I say. " It's concentration. You need to concentrate on what you are doing. Meditation is the key to doing that. You need to learn." Ivy says. " Alright. I'll try." I say. I've always had trouble meditating because there's always too much crap going on inside my head. I know that I need to give it a chance, but I can never calm my mind down long enough for it to actually work. I closed my eyes while sitting on the ground and I took a couple of deep
Every morning Ivy was working me like a dog at training and Noah and I had also started going to school in the pack. We were meeting new kids from the area and it was good to have kids that we at least had something in common with. Noah made friends easier than I did, but at least he never left me alone or anything like that. His friends became my friends and I didn't really mind that. I always seemed to get along better with guys then with girls. And I could tell that a lot of girls were starting to hate me for it. But I didn't really care. It wasn't my fault that I wasn't a girly girl. I was actually surprised that she-wolves were like that. They cared too much about clothes and make up and all the same stuff that regular girls cared about. But that stuff never interested me. And I think it put them off a little bit. But I knew that as long as I had Noah then I would be alright. He had been my lifeline for so long and I guess that wasn't going to change now that we're in this pa
The whole walk back to the packhouse was quiet. No one talked but I was fully aware of how close Ivy and Asher were behind me. They were angry with me. I knew that they were angry with me. I should have told them the truth from the start but I didn't think I had any choice. I had to keep it to myself. Noah was in danger. When we got to the packhouse I noticed that the living room light was on and when I walked inside Noah ran over to me and hugged me. " What the fuck do you think you were doing?" Noah snapped at me while still hugging me. I could actually feel how angry he was. And he was letting me know. That was a lot better than Ivy and Asher. They weren't yelling or screaming or punishing me. They were just quiet. It was really nerve wracking. I knew that they would never trust me again. They didn't have a reason to. I kept a huge secret from them and they needed to know the truth about vampires coming back to their territory. But I thought I would be leaving with them and
That night I didn't get very much sleep at all. I was tossing and turning all night until I finally got up and I went downstairs to the kitchen to get a drink. That's where I bumped into Ivy. She was down there giving the baby a bottle. " I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt." I say. " What are you talking about? It's the middle of the night. I welcome the intrusion at this time of night." She says. And I chuckle. " I just came to get a drink. I can't sleep." I say getting a bottle of water out of the fridge and I sat at the kitchen island next to her. " I can imagine. Tonight was pretty massive for you, wasn't it?" She asked. " Yeah. It was." I say. " I know that things haven't been easy for you. I get that. I know exactly how that is. I grew up knowing my father but I didn't actually know that he was my father. He was the Alpha of my old pack and he raped my mother when she was 14. She got pregnant with me and she was shunned by the whole pack. He ordered the pack to ha
It was clear that we weren't starting school today because school was cancelled. Too many people were concerned about the safety of their children. Apparently this pack has met day walking vampires and didn't want to risk it in case any might be on the land. So we just sat around the packhouse and I was lost in thought for most of the morning while we were sitting in the living room and I saw the kids running around everywhere. All of the kids. Quinn and Patrick included. They really did look like they had ADHD but they were just werewolf kids when Ivy came into the room and their kids ran over and jumped on Ivy. " Regan. The meeting is happening tonight. He insisted that you be there. But there will be a lot of protection so they won't be able to try anything while you're here." Ivy explained. " Where will the meeting take place?" Noah asked. " At the boarder." Ivy replied. " Outside? Really?" I asked nervously. " Trust me. You'll be alright. We will have warriors surro
When we landed at the airport we had to get into more cars that were waiting for us but it was just a short drive to the Blue Moon Pack. I heard that's what they called themselves. " Oh my god. I knew that you owned a large pack, But I never imagined it would be anything like this." Noah says looking out the window. We saw people around everywhere. The town was bigger than his pack town. And as we kept driving we saw three different training grounds with hundreds of warriors training in each other them. Noah was amazed but I was a little terrified. I didn't know what to think. " It's good to be home." Ivy says from the front seat of the car. " Tell me about it. I hope my brothers haven't set fire to anything while we were away." Asher says. " I don't think your brothers are the ones that we need to worry about anymore. I hope the kids didn't set fire to anything while we were away." Ivy says. " Oh yeah. I forgot about them." Asher says. And Ivy hit him in the chest. " I'
