SavageWith one final, monumental effort, I push through the pain and exhaustion, channeling every ounce of determination and love into bringing our last child into the world. Time seems to stand still as I fight against the waves of agony, a fierce sense of purpose guiding me through the storm of sensation. Levi's, Adrian’s, and Blake’s voices are a constant reassurance in the chaos, their words of encouragement a beacon of light in the darkness that threatens to overwhelm me.“It's a girl, but she is not breathing!” the nurse cries out.The room seems to freeze at the nurse's words, a heavy silence descending upon us as fear and panic grip our hearts. I reach out for our daughter, my hands trembling as I cradle her tiny, still form against my chest. Tears well up in my eyes as I desperately search for any sign of life, praying for a miracle to breathe warmth back into her precious body.Levi's face is etched with anguish as he watches on helplessly, his usual calm demeanor shattered
Savage“Alena is not dead!” I barely hear whispered, waking me from a dead sleep. “What?” I ask in confusion.“Alena is not dead!” the voice repeats, clearer this time, its tone filled with urgency and conviction. I exchange a bewildered look with Levi, Adrian, and Blake as they jerk awake, each of us grappling with the impossible hope that begins to unfurl in our hearts.“Save her from the pain!” It is cried out from the ghost that is pointing to the forest.Without hesitation, a surge of adrenaline courses through my veins as I process the ghostly plea. The forest looms ominously beyond our home, its dark silhouette of a stark contrast against the night sky. Without a word, Levi, Adrian, Blake, and I exchange glances filled with determination and trepidation. We know what we have to do.As we venture into the depths of the woods, an otherworldly chill hangs in the air, sending shivers down our spines. The ghostly figure leads the way, its ethereal form flickering in and out of sigh
MaxTaking a deep breath, I knock on the hospital door, unsure if I will even be welcomed in. Just as I am turning to leave, the door opens and Savage is looking at me with tears rolling down her face.“Omg, I am so sorry for your loss!” I exclaim, not realizing that she just lost a baby.“Thank you!” Savage says as she waves me to enter the room. “I can’t believe you are actually here. I was told you were hiding, but then I have seen you are part of the Children of Gaia's pack.”Hanging my head, I take a deep breath before looking at her with tears in my eyes. “You may want to sit down for this.”Savage looks at me funny before sitting down and watching me as I pace the room. “I am the reason Obsidian pack. Our pack was slaughtered.” I say quickly before continuing. “I was talking to a friend of mine in the Wild Claw pack about you. Saying how I am in love with you, and you were different from everyone else.”“WHAT!” Savage cries out in devastation. “But why would that cause them to
SavageWhile we research and train to do whatever it takes to find Alena. I also spend as much time with Samantha and Dominik because my babies need me to.The days blur into nights as we delve into the ancient tomes and seek wise sages who can guide us in our quest. Each page turn, each whisper, becomes a word of knowledge gained, bringing us closer to unraveling the mysteries of the realms beyond. The weight of our mission presses down upon us, but we bear it with unwavering determination, fueled by the love that binds us together.As I spend precious moments with Samantha and Dominik, their innocent laughter and hugs are a balm to my weary soul. Their presence reminds me of what is at stake—not just Alena's life, but the future we fight to protect for them. I cherish every second with them, knowing that our family's reunion hinges on our success in rescuing Alena from the clutches of darkness.Levi, Adrian, and Blake train tirelessly, honing their skills and preparing for the battl
SavageSuddenly, a low growl rumbles through the forest, causing us to halt in our tracks. From the shadows emerges a pack of shadow wolves, their eyes glinting with an otherworldly light as they encircle us with predatory intent.Levi raises his sword, the blade gleaming in the dim light as he takes a step forward, ready to face the spectral beasts that bar our path. The shadow wolves snarl, their forms flickering like dark mist as they prepare to strike. Adrian readies his bow, his aim steady as he focuses on the alpha wolf leading the pack.But before any of us can make a move, a haunting melody floats through the air, cutting through the tension like a silver blade. From the depths of the forest emerges a figure cloaked in shimmering blue robes, their voice weaving a spellbinding song that calms the savage hearts of the shadow wolves.The wolves hesitate, their growls softening as they sway to the enchanting music. The figure draws closer, revealing a face veiled by moonlight and
SavageAs we navigate through winding corridors and shadowed chambers, each step forward feels like a descent into the unknown. The fortress seems to shift and change around us, its very walls alive with malevolent intent. Yet, we press on, our senses sharpened and our resolve unwavering.At last, we reach the heart of the fortress, a chamber bathed in an eerie glow that seems to emanate from a pedestal at its center. Resting upon the pedestal is a crystalline orb, pulsing with a dark energy that sends shivers down our spines.Adrian notches an arrow, his bow at the ready as he scans our surroundings for any sign of danger.Levi takes a step forward, his sword gleaming in the dim light of the chamber. “This must be one of the trials,” he states, his voice steady despite the tension in the air. “We must proceed with caution.”Blake's hands crackle with arcane power as he surveys the room, his eyes darting from shadow to shadow. “There is a powerful magic at work here,” he murmurs, his
SavageFinally, after what feels like an eternity of battle, the last of the shadowy creatures dissipates into nothingness, their malevolent forms crumbling to dust as the chamber falls silent once more. We stand amidst the remnants of our victory, chests heaving with exertion and hearts pounding with the thrill of battle.Adrian lowers his bow, a sense of relief washing over his features as he surveys the now-empty chamber. “That is just the beginning, isn't it?” he remarks, a glint of anticipation in his eyes.Levi sheaths his sword, a grim smile tugging at his lips. “Indeed, but we have proven that we are more than capable of facing whatever challenges lay ahead,” he declares with unwavering confidence.Blake's hands cease their crackling with arcane power, the lingering traces of energy dissipating into the air around him. “The darkness may be formidable, but our unity is our greatest strength,” he states, his voice resonating with quiet power.I nod in agreement, feeling a surge
Savage Finally reaching home, I rush to my babies as they cry out and crawl towards me. Crying as I drop to my knees. “When did you start crawling?” I whimper out as Lily and Auntie Skyler approach with smiles. “They just started crawling.”“Thank you two so much for helping with these two. I feel like a horrible mother leaving them, but I would feel even worse if I didn't try to bring Alena home.”Lily and Auntie Skyler exchange a knowing glance before Lily speaks up, her voice soft and reassuring. “You're not a horrible mother, Savage. You're doing everything you can to protect your family, and we admire your courage and strength. We'll take care of the babies while you prepare for what's to come.”Auntie Skyler nods in agreement, her gaze gentle yet filled with determination. “We know that the final trial will be the greatest challenge yet, but we believe in you, Savage. You have the power of the elders now, and with your mates by your side, there's nothing you can't overcome.”I
