Lux
As soon as the words left my mouth, I hear Marinette stand up. She tells Mason, “Come help me pack, Mace.”
He sounds surprised as he asks, “Right now?”
She says, “We need to do it now, if we don’t then Chase might find out about it.”My eyebrows furrow, why does it matter with Chase?Mason doesn’t question anymore and instead follows her out of the room. I ask Silas softly, “Why do you think she’s so hesitant about Chase?”
Silas breathes out and says, “I don’t know, but it sounds like the two of them are upset with one another based off what that Lauren girl was saying.”
I nod in agreement, and we sit quietly as we wait for Mason and Marinette to come back in the room. I hear the baby fuss softly and then Mason walks into the room. He sits down and asks Silas, “Is this the right way to hold a baby?”Silas cLuxThis flight might be longer, but it felt like our shortest one.Marinette and Marigold were my priority. Marinette talked to me the entire flight, asking me questions about my life, and was absolutely fascinated by the things I’ve been through.Silas is quiet throughout the flight, but just like always he keeps his hand laced together with mine. A reminder of how he is always there for me, he is my one constant in this life.Meanwhile Mason and Elijah are deathly silent. They only speak when spoken to, at least Silas has chimed in here and there. Marinette gave plenty of opportunities for either of the men to speak, but neither one made a peep. There’s some kind of tension between the two of them that I don’t understand.It seemed like an eternity before the plane finally landed. And when it did it seemed like all of us were eager to get out of the flying contraption.My brother sent two c
KaiI was intrigued by the fact that Elijah, Beta of the North River Pack would want to speak with me.Normally Alpha’s requested my company, but Beta’s never said a word. What does he need?I’m surprised I haven’t heard from Alpha Chase yet considering that his Beta is here as well as Marinette Sinclair.When Elijah said he wanted to speak with me, I noticed that Marinette made a face. I tried not to react to it, but the tension between the two of them was obvious.Once I showed everyone to their rooms Genevieve sat down in the rocking chair holding Marigold and Marinette began to unpack. Genevieve asked me to get an older omega we have who we call Winnie. Her real name was Winifred, but everyone calls her grandma Winnie because she has such a sweet motherly vibe.We haven’t had a baby around here in a while and I know Marinette is going to love her and Grandma Winnie will enjoy h
LuxBy the time morning comes I feel refreshed. I didn’t realize how much better sleep I would get from being with Silas.I slip out of bed and listen out for his heavy breathing, and I know he’s still asleep. I walk to the shower and breathe out as my shoulder relax under the warm water. Right as I get started shampooing my hair, I get a mind link from Grandma Winnie and she says: Princess, it appears we have some new guests. Ms. Sinclair is not too happy, right now I have Marigold, but because Marinette is your guest, I thought you might want to check in on her.I respond back: Okay, be there soon.Thank you, princess.I rinse my hair out and rush out of the shower and to my closet so I can get dressed and go find out what’s going on. I mind link Kai as I leave my room to find out which guest rooms he put them in. Once he answers I close our link and focus on getting there as quickly as p
SilasWhen I woke up, I knew that Lux had been gone for a while.I got out of bed and quickly showered and got changed before going to find the others. I saw my brother and Charlotte from afar, but I pursed my lips before choosing to go the other way. I didn’t want to talk to them right now.I saw Calvin and Iris along with their new little bundle, but they both seemed exhausted, so I walked past their area without saying a word, so I didn’t disturb them.Then I found Kai in one of the main living areas along with Mason, Elijah, and another man. I walk in there and the first thing I noticed was that Mason and Elijah were sitting close beside each other and neither one seemed put off by the others presence.Maybe they were both just in a bad mood yesterday.The new man paced back and forth tugging at his hair in frustration. Kai sat in a chair watching the man, but he had a bored expression on his fa
SilasLux’s entire aura shifted as Kodi took over her body. Jax is ultra-aware as he tries to take over my body, but I hold him back. I need to know what’s happening. I need to make sure she's okay.Kai’s voice changes, it’s deeper and I know without looking at him that Loki has taken over, “Genevieve, take our guests out of here for now. I’ll let you know when to come back.”“On it.” She responds and out of the corner of my eye I see the others leave.Lux’s chest rises and falls steadily as Kodi forces deep breathes trying to push through the panic attack Lux was having.Loki’s voice is steady as he says, “Let Jax take over, Silas.”I open my mouth to argue but Kodi’s pained voice says, “Give me my mate, Silas.”At that point I wouldn’t have had a choice as Jax takes over. He allows me to stay aware though an
KaiOur meeting went smoothly. Right now, we’re just in a waiting game. According to the vision that Stefan had, we’ll be attacked during a new moon.The next new moon is in 6 days. All we can do is fight, rest, and be prepared for anything to happen.I sit in my room with my eyes closed as I try to meditate. I’m doing everything I can to try to force a vision. I hear the door open and close and smell Genevieve’s intoxicating scent. I don’t hear her footsteps but notice the soft flutter of her wings.I think that’s truly one of my favorite things about her is how she flies. She so quiet and she brings me the most peace and comfort. Her hands touch my shoulders, and she places her chin on top of my head as she says softly, “You need to let loose, Kai.”I take a deep breath and place my hand on hers and say, “I know.”“How about you let Loki to play?
Silas David and Charlotte look like they’re glowing from their happiness now that they’re pregnant. I can’t help but smile and feel happy for them. It also just reminds me of what my future with Lux might look like soon. Charlotte seems to have mellowed out which I’m surprised about. I thought pregnancy would make her even more high strung, but she just seemed happy and content with life. I wish Lux could’ve sat with us, but I knew after the meeting she just wanted time to herself because she felt embarrassed. Once all of this is over, I really need to encourage her to go to therapy. She’s been through a lot of trauma and I think it could really benefit her. Imagine my surprise when I get a mind link from Kai saying: Go down to the cells. My eyebrows furrow as I stand up, accidentally bumping into the table startling Charlotte and David asks, “Are you okay, Silas?”My eyes glaze over with the
Lux Kodi is just as angry as I am as we distance ourselves from Silas. I go up to my room knowing that there’s nowhere else I’d be able to go to. Silas and Kai are sure to be on top of me if I tried to go out. I know that Apollo knows where Ellie is. I hope Kai will be able to get the information out of him that I wasn’t able to get. The moment I walk into my room I notice Genevieve’s scent and I ask, “What are you doing in here?” “Oh, I just figured you’d be coming in here after Kai rushed to the cells to get you away from there.” I wince at the reminder, and she says, “I figured you might want a distraction. Or just someone that won’t be upset with you for doing it.”I make my way to the bed and lie down on it, and I feel Genevieve lies down beside me. I take in a deep breath and ask, “You’re not upset with me?”“Not at all. I don’t know why you did it, but the one thing that I’ve learned about you is th
