For Cassandra and Penelope, it was not easy locating their mother, they had to go around asking for her whereabouts and when they finally found where she was, she was living in an elderly home with other aged disabled people.

She smiled as soon as she saw them, she was in a wheelchair basking in the sun, that was like her normal routine, she would be moved out to bask in the sun and wheeled back to the main house, she had aged so much that you could see the wrinkles on her face.

“My daughter, I never thought you would come to see me, I just knew that one day, you will come, I just wanted to say my goodbye before I die, thank you for coming, thank you all for coming, I missed you all.” She said weakly and Cassandra smiled, she was lost for words to tell her mother, one good look at her and you would tell she was going through a lot, not just physically but mentally as well.

“Mom, it has…it has been long, you look…” She added and her mom smiled, “different, I know but than

    Flashback (Nine years ago)“I don’t think it is a good idea to unleash what I have been trying so hard to hide from my family, my husband already knows and the fact that he lost his pack a few years ago, I can’t do this to my family, my kids too,” Katie said to her friend. She was contemplating going back to doing magic and staying with her family but a call is a call and you have to heed it, magic was her calling and it was running through her blood and her lineage.“Katie, this is not something to debate about, you know what to do and you know it is the right thing to do right now, you know how ancestors get when you don’t follow what they tell you, fate will befall your family. I don’t think you want that to happen, do you?” her friend questioned and she sighed deeply, she knew she had to make a choice and her family was her priority.“Okay, I don’t know what to do anymore and I don’t know if what I want to do is the right thing to do, I just want my family safe and s

    “Mom, are you trying to say that you have been alive all these years?” Arya who had been all time listening to her mother asked shocked at the news.“Yes, and I am sorry I didn’t come sooner to check on you guys but I have been out of the country for a long now, things didn’t go as we planned but we didn’t know things will turn the other way round, I missed you and I was just surprised to see Dylan, I have been so happy in my life, seeing all my kids and my husband after over ten years, I am so happy to see you.” She said happily, she looked excited and Arya was happy that her mom was alive after all.“Mom, I don’t even know what to tell you right now, I am so happy to see you and at the same time, I don’t know what to tell you, I am just overly excited although I am not used to you in this body.” She said with a sly smile and Katie shook her head and then smiled.“I know I was not used to my body either but we both know I had no choice, I am just glad that your family i

    KATIE WAYNE“This is the right time to go home, I have missed my family for years now and I don’t even know if they are still alive, honestly; I feel like they will never allow me back in their lives, I have fucked up big time,” I said to the Coven leader whom we had grown to be great friends in years, we were close friends and she knew much about my family.“Katie, your problem is that you worry too much, you shouldn’t be though. They are your family and I don’t think they will give you a hard time, they love you and they will do anything for you, the only way to find out the truth is by bracing yourself and being ready for what is to come, whether bad or good you will at least know what they feel about you.” She advised and I nodded, I had already a locater spell on them so I knew exactly where to find them.“I know and thanks for being here for me the whole tie, I don’t know what I could have done without you, the only problem I have right now is accepting the rejecti

    It had been one week since Katie moved back to French Basin; she stayed in the hotel for a few days but Alfred suggested she moves in with them. Katie met with Penelope during the same week, they had a lot to discuss concerning performing magic and other issues related to the coven.“You know when Miranda’s mom told me about the impossibility of bringing my mom back, I felt bad. I felt like maybe she just didn’t want to help perform the spell and all that, so, I decided to go behind her back and bring my mom back on my own and I almost fucked things up. My mom isn’t ready to come or she just doesn’t want to come.” Penelope said to Katie one evening as they were hanging out in a café just across the street.“I know how that feels and honestly if there was a way, I could bring back everyone I have lost in my life, I would have done so a long time ago but that is not how things work my dear.

    The following morning Arya woke up earlier than usual, she breastfed Rowena at around five in the morning and went back to sleep, she was feeling tired and since Leo was still sleeping soundly next to her, she didn’t want to wake him up, she just pulled the duvet covers over them and went back to sleep. She was woken up a few minutes later by a groaning Leo, he seemed like he was in pain, she was suddenly alarmed and got up to check on him. “Babe, are you sure you are, okay? What is going on?” She asked worriedly and Leo just shook his head and moved to the other side of the bed, he was struggling to breathe and was constantly stopping to catch his breath. “I don’t think I have much time left, I am…I am dying my love…and…I don’t know what to say to you… right now but…it…is…time.” He said as struggled to breathe and Arya’s heart skipped a beat, they had just shared a great moment the previous night and didn’t think it was the last time they spent the night together and now he was try

    When Arya got home that evening, she was busy with Rowena, she had started spending most of the time with her daughter ever since she lost her husband. “I didn’t think you would come so early today, how was work?” Sophia asked as soon as she walked into the house, she was carrying a bag in her other hand. “Yeah, I didn’t think I would come off early too but here I am, what have you got for us today, man I am starving and I didn’t want to bother the maids so?” she said as she walked up to her and took the bag from her. “I got your favourite, I figured out you don’t like cooking when you get back from work and all that, so I brought your favourite, how is she?” “She is okay, the flu is gone and I think she is okay, she is starting to get walk on her own and I can’t wait for her to grow up, she reminds me of Leo.” She said in a low tone and Sophia nodded, talking about her son was something she didn’t feel comfortable disusing especially after his death. “I know he is watching over h

    Death is not something you would wish for your worst enemy, it strikes and reaps off our loved ones, a permanent thing with no reversal. Arya was in mourning for over one week and when they lay her husband to rest, she knew she had to partake in the duty of becoming the Alpha and continue serving her people just like Leo had always done before. “Things are not easy as they were, people have lost faith and they are still mourning their dead Alpha, I think we should give them time to recuperate and you know get back on their feet.” Beta Max reported to Arya week after the burial session was over. “No, I am the one grieving but I am here, can’t you see that, Max?” She shot back and Max sighed, he didn’t know what to say next so he just let her continue talking. “I know we are all grieving but I am here working for you guys, working for this pack because that is how much I love you guys, I lost a husband, the love of my life, the father to my baby, and my best friend but I am here at wor
