The war has begun sooner than I had anticipated. Warriors from every clan have gathered to help stop the rogues but it may not be enough. These rogues fear what they do not understand and they want to wipe out me and family. We are the last of the Silver Dragons.

“Thierry how are we doing out there,” I ask, one of my best friends. Thierry is an Alpha from the wolf pack in the other realm called earth.

“Lux, we are losing too many men. I am not sure how much longer we can hold them off. If you are going to send her away you need to do it now!” My mate and I have struggled with this decision. We knew if it came down to it we would need to send our only daughter away for her safety and seal away her powers so she will not be discovered by the enemy. It would appear we are at that point. I call to my mate telepathically.

“Celestia, it is time.” I can feel her emotions, feel her heartbreaking just as mine is. We cannot lose another child. Celestia comes into the war room with our daughter, Davina. She is trying to hold back her tears.

“Lux, I don’t think I can do it. She needs her parents.” Celestia’s eyes are all puffy and red from crying. She hasn’t slept in days and nothing I say will make this better.

“There is no guarantee we will walk away from this alive and if we are to ensure our lineage and her safety, we need to send her away,” I say firmly, trying hold back my own tears. I grab Davina from Celestia and stare into her beautiful hazel eyes. I try to memorize what she looks like as this may be the last time I see my daughter.

One of the warlocks enters the war room. “Sir, Daniel and Isla Ortiz are here.”

“Send them in.” Daniel and Isla are one of my most trusted friends. Daniel is a very powerful warlock and I know he will protect my daughter with his very life if it came down to it.

Daniel and Isla enter the room. Daniel stands tall at 6 feet and 3 inches where as his wife, Isla, appears so small next to him at 5 feet at 2 inches tall. Both have chocolate brown hair and green eyes with an olive complexion. Daniel appears to be injured and his brother is helping him walk into the room.

“Daniel, it is time. Are you alright.” I see he has lost a lot of blood, so much that would kill a typical human.

“I’ll be fine Lux. My leg is beyond repair with magic but I have been able to heal it just fine. I can get a prosthetic in the human plane,” Daniel replies. Always putting on a brave face for the sake of others.

“I truly appreciate you my friend. Please watch over Davina as if she were your own. Are all the documents prepared for when you enter the human realm?”

“Yes, Lux. Her birth certificate has been prepared with us as her parents listed with a completely different birth date. We will treat her as if she truly is our own daughter. Thierry’s pack doctor has ensured there will be no questions asked regarding her birth or that we are her parents,” Isla replies. Isla can not have children of her own and it devastated her when she found out she couldn’t.

“You can count on us,” states Daniel, “I will seal away her powers.” Daniel chants something in Latin to seal away Davina’s powers and the seal appears on the back of her right shoulder as though it were a birth mark. The shape of the birth mark is a double infinity symbol. Though her powers are sealed her hair remained our silver color. Celestia has a worried expression on her face as she touches her hair.

“Do not worry Celestia. Humans tend to dye their hair color frequently. We can use that as a means for her to blend in. We can also use magic to make humans see her hair has brown” states Daniel.

Thierry then walks into the war room. “Lux there is no more time to wait.”

“I understand.” Celestia and I give our last goodbyes and kiss our daughter. I hand Davina to Isla and in an instant they disappear as though they have evaporated into dust. I know in that moment they have transported themselves into the human realm where they will raise my daughter. As they disappeared the door crashes open. We prepare to fight for our lives.

I know I will never see my daughter again.

    Davina It is a beautiful summer day here on the east coast. I love the heat. I am fifteen years old, soon to be sixteen and I’ll be graduating high school just before my birthday in September. I use to get picked on in school because of how smart I am and my hair color so I was glad to be able to finish school on line. I have already been accepted into the University of South Carolina for business. I plan on taking over my parent’s restaurant once I graduate college. It is a quaint little family restaurant called Ortiz’s Place and it has the best pies. I may be a bit biased there. My favorite being my mother’s banana cream pie. I spend my days completing my school work at the restaurant and working there part time. I love the atmosphere and making people feel at home while at the restaurant. Everyone is so friendly. We’ve had several people become regulars, including my father’s best friend, Thierry. He runs some big shot company and comes at least once a week. He is like an uncle to

    “How did you do on your test,” asks mom, though she is smiling. She knows I aced it. I have never received a B on any test I’ve ever taken and I don’t plan on that changing anytime soon. I may be a bit of an overachiever. “I won’t get the results until tomorrow but I don’t doubt I aced it,” I say with confidence. “I bet you passed. You can dance circles around me when it comes to numbers,” dad laughs. He isn’t wrong. When it came to budgeting mom or I handled that. Dad is better at organizing and cooking rather than the math part of running a restaurant. I eye my dad through the rear view mirror and he catches me looking at him. He raises an eyebrow waiting for me to ask the question I’m sure is all over my face. “Hey dad, what do you guys think about me going out on a date?” I am digging to see if they’ll at least let me date. “I didn’t know you had a crush. Who is the boy,” asks mom. I was really hoping she wouldn’t ask that. I should’ve known better. “Well, you know the coll

    “Uncle Gabriel and your father have a surprise for you.” I look at mom with a wide eyed expression and begin grilling her. “What is it? It’s not my birthday. Is it a graduation present? What is it?” My mom laughs at me as I finish my last question. “You’ll just have to wait and see when we get there. I’d hate to ruin the surprise,” says mom. “You suck at keeping secrets. Spill it.” “Not this time,” she laughs. I sit in the car in agony as I swear mom is driving so slow on purpose. I drum my fingers on the laptop bag and stare out the window. I am waiting to see the restaurant sign come into view. I decide to check my email as I am waiting for my test results to come in. I know I passed but it’ll be nice to have the final results. When I open up my mailbox I immediately see the email I have been waiting for and gasp in excitement. “What is it Davina,” mom asks. “It’s my test results.” Mom has the biggest grin. “Well go on open it.” I open the email and begin reading.

    “Mr. and Mrs. Ortiz, Mr. Brooks,” Daniela one of the wait staff interrupts. She is Thierry’s best female warrior. “I’m sorry to interrupt but we can hear what’s going on and we thought you should know that there has been a lone wolf in the area. He’s a second year college student and has visited the restaurant regularly these past two years. He doesn’t seem dangerous but he has taken an interest in Davina. His name is Enzo Black.” “Keep an eye on him. I don’t think it’s a coincidence a lone wolf has been hanging around and has yet to ask to join the pack. I don’t want to scare Davina but she needs to stay away from him and we will need to proceed with caution. There are rogue warlocks out there helping the wolves so we need to be prepared,” Thierry ordered his wolf. He then sends out a text. “Yes sir,” replied Daniela, “I’ll inform the rest of the staff and head out with Mark.” She turns and heads back inside the restaurant. “I texted Mark about this Enzo Black. I’ll get a backgro

    Thierry I have watched Davina grow up throughout the years and have been around her whole life. She considers me somewhat of an uncle and I consider her my niece. I have wolves surrounding her should something go wrong. Some of my best warriors work at the Ortiz restaurant. I have even placed wolves at the university as professors, students or even security guards. The Smith twins, Daniel and Daniela, are my best and most fierce warriors. If someone took on one of the twins they wouldn’t stand a chance but together those two are deadly. Only my son Mark could only best them if they don’t fight together, though I have caught him letting Daniela win. I am happy for my son. I do hope Daniela turns out to me his mate. The night we lost Davina’s parents still haunts me. Probably always will. I failed in protecting them but I would not fail their daughter. I insisted they flee but Lux was too proud to run and wanted to ensure everyone else was evacuated before leaving himself. Celestia ref

    “Calista you know you don’t have to knock,” I say with a smile on my face. Seeing her always relaxes me. She is my sunshine in the the middle of the storm. Her parent’s picked the perfect name because it means most beautiful and that she certainly is. Calista enters the room with that gorgeous smile on her face. She has the most beautiful blonde hair that reaches her waist and the most vibrant blue eyes that Mark and Keila inherited. Derek got stuck with my features poor boy. “You know you tell me that every time and every time I tell you I’ll still going to knock,” she laughs. “How did it go?” She moves towards me and I reach out my hand for hers pulling her onto my lap so I can inhale her intoxicating scent. “Davina’s powers are manifesting sooner than we expected. The seal is wearing off and there is nothing the warlocks can do to stop it. She’s too powerful,” I inform her. “We knew this day was going to come. I was hoping we would have more time to allow Derek be a kid longer b

    I text Jason informing him of where our sons were at and that they will be arriving at my estate with half an hour. Jason replied he will be over shortly. I may be teaching both boys about the history of the silver dragons. I know Derek is close with Owen and I am not sure if Owen will end up the new beta or the second gamma. So Owen needs to know this history as well. Mark is already well informed. He paid close attention to the dragon history as he had a bit of a crush on Davina but when he met her for the first time he became attached to Daniela instead. They are close to eighteen and though their wolves can’t sense it yet they seem drawn to each other. It was clear Davina was not fated to be mated with Mark so he let it go. I am sure he will end up mated to Daniela one of the best female warriors. I’m happy for him. I know how much he would like a family of his own. I hear a car pull up to the driveway. Jason has arrived. I immediately pull the door open and greet him. “Thanks f

    Derek Dad is really mad this time. He normally wouldn’t scold me for drinking but I never did stay out all night. I know I am going to hear it from mom later too. She may even start crying. Dad and I had a deal that I would start alpha training after I had been in college for two years. This way I could still take classes but be on a lighter schedule as I would have my prerequisites finished. Now it seems college is completely off the table. I trudge my way upstairs to my bedroom to shower. Owen went to a guest bathroom to shower himself and I lent him some clothes. I quickly shower, not wanting to make my father angrier than he already is, and head downstairs and brush my teeth. Owen beat me to my father’s office. I don’t blame him for trying to be quicker. He is in double trouble since he mated with my sister. The thought of that made me laugh to myself. “So why the hell did you not tell me you mated with my sister? You had all night to say something. That’s awesome man, now we’re

    Derek As soon as we touch down on the runway we both unbuckle our seat belts and rush out the door as soon as it’s opened. There are two cars waiting for as I instructed. One to wait for our luggage and another to immediately take us home. I order my wolf to speed home. Davina hasn’t spoken a word since we left. I can tell she has been trying to communicate with Malayah with no luck. I have been practicing using my telepathy as well but haven’t been able to get through either. It’s weird being able to do that in my human form. I try communicating with Mark. “Mark can you hear me?” “Derek?” “Yes it’s me.” “How are you doing that?” “I’ll explain later. Any leads?” “No, she vanished. There is a package here for Davina though. It’s spelled shut. I think only Davina can open it.” “We will be there in ten minutes. Meet us in the conference room. Have mom keep the kids busy.” “Will do bro. See you soon.” The connections ends and I look at Davina. She is still concentrating. “Davina

    “They look like they are having a lot of fun,” I giggle. There is a picture of Owen with glitter in his hair.“My mother sent me this yesterday. They are doing fine.” The pictures ease my anxiety and a server brings out our dessert. A simple cheese cake. I love cheese cake. This is truly the best evening and it’s only day one. Derek’s phone rings and he rolls his eyes silencing it.“Shouldn’t you take that?”“Whatever is going on I left plenty of people in charge to handle business matters. You have my attention this whole trip.” I smile as the phone rings again.“Derek just answer it.” He looks down at the phone and frowns.“What is it?” He answers the phone without answering my question.“What’s wrong mother?” Calista wouldn’t call unless something happened. My heart begins to race. I shouldn’t have left my children. “Call detective O’Neil, we are on our way.” He hangs up the phone and dials another number. “Jack get our plane ready we are heading home immediately.

    “Don’t panic love. Just calmly swim back to the boat.” I go to turn around are there are some blacktip reef sharks between us and the boat.“Derek?”“It’s okay, they won’t bother you. Plus you are a dragon that controls water. Just move them with your water powers.” I concentrate and make a water current that pushes the sharks further away so I can swim to the boat. I turn and I see the hammerhead next to Derek. Derek is remaining as still as possible but he needs air. I use my water powers to push the hammerhead away from Derek but the sharks tail hits Derek in the head causing his snorkeling gear to get knocked of this head. Derek is knocked further towards the sea floor, doing a few somersaults. “Shit!”“Derek are you okay?” He looks around confused for a second. He doesn’t look to be holding his breathe. “Davina, I’m breathing.”“What? How?”“I think we should head back early and call Dimitri. This is too weird.”“I agree.” We decide to head back to the boat and ask Hank to take

    DerekWhen we begin to descend I wake up Davina. It’s about eight in the morning in South Carolina but here in Bora Bora it is two in the morning. But I am not tired and have other plans for the rest of the night with her. “Where are we? How long did I sleep.”“Look out the window love.” I know she won’t be able to see anything.“Umm..it’s dark out. I can’t see anything.” I chuckle at her. The steward asks us to fasten our seatbelts. We touch down and begin exiting the plane. It’s definitely warm out tonight. “Where are we?”“Welcome to Bora Bora love,” I whisper in her ear. She looks at me and smiles. “Really?”“Yep and I am glad you napped on the flight. I have other plans tonight.” I can see a fire in her eyes and she wants the same. I lead her to our private hut. Our luggage has already been brought to the room so there is no one to disturb us. “I’ll need a few minutes in the bathroom,” says Davina as she takes her suitcase into the bathroom and locks the door.

    “Derek, my wolf, my best friend, father of my children. When you walked into my restaurant for the very first time I felt this pull towards you. I couldn’t explain it but I felt safe when you were around. You were so patient with me and so kind moving our relationship at my pace. You made me feel confident to face the world and move past my fears. I am not the same girl I was a year ago and I have you to thank for that. You not only accepted me for me and my past but you also accepted my daughters. I couldn’t ask for a better father for my children. It’s a shame it did take you so long,” she laughs and so do I and the crowd. “I promise you my undying loyalty and love. I will stand by your side and love you forever even after I die.”“The rings,” says Dimitri. I turn to Mark and he hands me the rings. “Derek, do you take Davina to be your wife, to live together in holy matrimony, to love her, to honor her, to cherish her, to comfort her, and to keep her in sickness and in health, forsa

    Derek I am super annoyed I got kicked out of my own room again. I haven’t seen Davina all day. I almost made it to the nursery to see her and the kids but Mark stopped me. I could smell Davina as she left the nursery for our bedroom. I can hear the girls chatting and laughing while they are getting pampered. I’m glad I rented the spa chairs. It sounds like they’re all having a good time. I’ve been rocking both the twins for quite some time before Mark walks in. “We gotta get you ready bro, guests are starting to arrive.” I sigh, not wanting to put my babies down. “Will you take Thierry and put him in his crib.” Mark walks over and takes Thierry. I stand and put Accalia in her crib. They’re both fast asleep. I check on Braydon who is also sleeping. Miss Kat and her niece were kind enough to volunteer to watch the twins while everyone else is at the wedding. “Being a father looks good on you Derek, but if I don’t drag you out of here your bride will be down the aisle before you,” he

    DavinaThe day has finally arrived. We pushed the date again to March 25th but it’s finally arrived. I will be Mrs. Brooks by the end of the day. Calista and Keila forced Derek to stay in one of the rooms on the second floor. He wasn’t too happy about that. Everyone in the wedding stayed at the estate last night. We set up an extra crib in the nursery for Braydon.Keila is up early with me. We are having coffee and feeding the little ones. Malayah has been more compliant so we had my uncle seal the windows and outside doors so she can’t leave the house. This way she can at least leave her room. She’s helping me feed Thierry while I feed Accalia. I really wish this was truly her. Keila and I both snap our heads to the door. We can hear Derek arguing with Mark and we both laugh.“Mark at least let me see my kids. I’m not banned from seeing them before the wedding.”“No can do bro, Davina is in there right now.” I can’t help but laugh. “Keila I’m going to go shower. Let Mark know he can

Where is Malayah?”“Alpha I’m sorry. Malayah went to the library to read. She jumped out the window and took off. We have wolves on her trail but she has quite the head start.”“Damn it!” “Derek we need to get to her before he does,” I say. “Davina please stay with the children, I don’t want to leave them unprotected in case this is a diversion. I want you and Maliyah in the nursery. I’ll have guards outside the window, in the room with you and outside the door.” Derek takes out his phone and dials a number.“Gabriel please come back to the estate.” He hangs up and uncle Gabriel appears.“What’s going on?”“I need you to go with Davina and Malayah into the nursery and seal it shut. No one gets in or out until I return. Malayah gave the guards the slip and ran off. I’ll deal with you two later, go find her,” he
