I slowly move closer to the bed just in case this is a hallucination. I reach my hand up and lightly drag my fingers down the side of his face. I jerk my hand back because the feel of skin under my fingertips surprises me. My dreams never feel this real. I slowly get up on my knees and crawl to the edge of the bed. I reach my hand up and cup Zayden’s cheek, lightly brushing my thumb right under his eye. The light movement must have startled him enough that his eyes fly open and he has a death grip on my wrist. My eyes widen in shock staring in to his.
“Grey?” He croaks out after blinking a few times clearing his vision.
“Hey buddy. Yeah, it’s me.” I say in a whisper. His hand loosens its hold on me but he doesn’t let go of my wrist. We just sit there and stare at each other for a few seconds before he let’s go of my wrist and swings his arms around my shoulders pulling me in to a hug.
“Grey.” He whisper
GreyShe giggles a light laugh. “It’s time to get you fed then we need to talk.” She says sternly with a smile on her face as she looks back and forth between Zayden and me.“Why? This is a dream world. It won’t do us any good.” Zayden asked.“Actually, it will.” She said sliding out from between us and lifting the lid off the tray.Fruits, meats, cheeses and steamed veggies is what I see and my mouth starts watering.“This is my dream world. I didn’t know I could do it until recently.” She said while taking a couple plates and filling them up. “What goes on my dream world actually helps in real life. I don’t know how it works exactly but I’ve tested it out.” She finished saying as she hands us each a plate.“Sit down and eat. We need your strength up.” She said ushering us to the chairs I didn’t even realize was in the room.We sit down and start to slowly eat the food just in case this was a spell. We are not sure how long they have held us captive but I wouldn’t put it past them to
“Yes. They had just brought him in and maybe not even 30 minutes later they gassed us.”“What are they doing with the Vampire King’s son?” Everleigh mumbled to herself.“We don’t know. We are the only ones we have ever seen in there. Even the people who took us are werewolves.” I tell her after swallowing my last bit of water I had in my glass. I set it on the table and look at her. She is still as beautiful as ever.“Why has your mate not help look for the both of you?” Everleigh suddenly asked us. My eyes dart to Zayden’s at the same time his dart to mine. Both of us with questioning looks.“What do you mean?” Zayden asked her confused.“Well, when I left you both had marked someone else so now they are your Luna. Where is she? I haven’t seen anyone but the normal and your mother.” Everleigh said spitting out the word mother.“We don&rsquo
“That will make it easier. I have to picture who I need to dream walk with for it to happen.” She explains to us. She goes to move but before she can Zayden grabs her and pulls her on to his lap. He wrap one of his arms around her stomach and the other wraps around her back with his hand on the base of her neck with his fingers tangled in her hair. He buries his nose in the crook of her neck.Everleigh stays stock still in shock of what he is doing.I’m fighting Shadow because he wants to do the same. I guess I’m still weak because next thing I know is I’m dropping to my knees on the floor, my arms are around Everleigh too just above Zayden’s and my nose is in the crook of her neck opposite of Zayden. Her scent is still calming to me. It has helped me relax. I don’t notice her quickening of breath and the shaking until I feel Zayden pulling my arms away from her. When she is loose she jumps up and scurries off around ten feet f
VorI’m pacing back in forth in my study in the packhouse waiting to hear from Everleigh. I want to make sure it worked. We did an experiment with Wendy to make sure it worked before we did it with the guys. I made a potion for energy so Everleigh could sleep walk to Wendy and give it to her. Wendy was to drink it then try to fall back asleep before it took effect and kept her in the dream state. With in ten minutes Everleigh was waking up laughing. I looked at her with a lifted brow before my mate shot up in her bed jumping out and started doing jumping jacks and talking a mile a minute about things I couldn’t understand.“I would say it worked.” Everleigh said still laughing. “It started kicking in before she could fall asleep so I had to kind of knock her out so she would wake up here.”“I must have made it to strong then because it shouldn’t have worked that fast.” I tell
“Understood Vor. As soon as this Luna is back after she gives Calix the potion we will leave. Before that I want a rundown of everything that is happening.”“Understood Myke. I will have the guard at the front keep an eye out for you and will have them let you through without stopping. Just go straight to the underground parking and bring the elevator up.” I tell him.“Understood. Until tomorrow Vor I bid you good well.” He said before hanging up.I set the phone back down on my desk and rub my temples. Why must people always have to try to take over the world?I stand up and gather my things before walking out the door and locking it behind me. Thankfully I’m only on the second floor so I run down the stairs and out the front door to my car. I open my door, fling my bag inside and jump in starting it. I already have it in drive before my door is fully closed. My normal 20-minute drive to the coven, my house I had
“Can you mind link the other 3 and ask them to meet us in the office when they get done or up. I’ll find Everleigh and can you also link the front guards and tell them to expect Lord Carmykel. When he shows up to just let him through and don’t make him stop.”“I can do that rabbit. You’re amazing you know that right and that I love you so very much?”Hearing my mates nickname for me makes my body relax. It’s been so crazy lately I haven’t hardly been able to see her.“I love you too Wendy. So very much. I will see you here in a little bit for the meeting.” I tell her before cutting the link. I gather up all the medallions and potions that have been made besides the one for Calix. Remy walks in as soon as I get the last vial in the box. I look up at him and smile.“Remy my dear boy. Can you can make sure Calix’s potion isn’t tampered with while it sits in the sun all day? W
VorWe made it up to the office and noticed everyone was there but Blake, Nora and Bailey. I walked over to the desk and put the box down before turning around and facing everyone.“Where are the others?” I asked.“Bailey is with Liam. She said she would love to be here but her first priority is Liam. Blake and Nora will be here within the hour. They didn’t want to leave Bailey by herself after a long night. I guess there was some complication that happened.” Everleigh stated.“Okay, we can catch them up later. When we are done I will go check on them and make sure the stress isn’t going to hurt Bailey or the baby and see if I can’t do anything for Liam.” I say turning around. I start taking things out of the box when I get the feeling we are being watched somehow. I stop what I’m doing and stand up straight. I whisper an incantation for an illusion of us doing the opposite of what we are actually doing. When I’m done I turn around and face the others.“I don’t know if you all just fe
“No absolutely not!” She screeched. “I will not allow my child or anyone’s child to go in to a dangerous situation. No.”“But mom..” He started.“No buts mister. The answer is no. You are five years old. You have no business going in to something like this. This is for the adults bug. I know you are the man of the house when we are home but here there is too much danger.”“Momma..” He starts again.“Walker the final answer is NO. N. O. NO. You will not be going. If I catch you anywhere near us when we go to leave I will have them lock you and Felix in a room for your own safety. I will not take the chance of something happening to either of you. Do you understand?” She said pulling the boys off of her and standing up.“Yes momma.” Walker said sadly. “Come on Felix. Let’s go back to Aunt Sophia.” Walker grabs Felix’s hand and drags him o
“This is my idea for the rescue. With not knowing how many of the witches would be willing to help out I estimated two to each group. The vampires that will be helping out from my coven will add an extra ten to each group. I like the idea of three groups going in.Since these two lands boarder each other our best bet would be to attack from the North, East and South of White Fang. The other group will attack from the North, South, and West of Black Lake. The groups on the East and West sides will cause a distraction to get as many rogues and warriors to those sides as possible.”He looks around at everyone and nods before continuing. “While the distraction is happening the two groups on the North and South sides will advance inwards. Those two groups will break in to two more groups.The first group will fight and keep the other group covered so they can go in and get the kids out. But the problem is how will we get the kids to safety when we g
“I think the kids need to be rescued first. They have no way to defend themselves. Their captures might start hurting them if we go after the others before them.” Jazzlynn says.“I agree. But the rescues need to be started within an hour of each other. We need to find a way that there is no communication with others outside of that pack to get to the adults captures.” Aria says.“I can help with that. Well, my coven anyways. They love Zayden as their own and wants him back too. He saved a lot of us and we want to do the same for him. I will go and see who will volunteer for the rescue.” Vor said standing up.“Thank you Vor.” Dawn says.She goes out the door quickly and we hear the click of the lock as it engages knowing she just locked us in.“So where are the thought processes of these rescues? How far have you gotten?” Lord Carmykel asked looking around.“Honestly we haven&r
“They are hybrids so the sun doesn’t bother them as much as a full fledge vampire.” He said before commenting, “Now that, that is out of the way let’s get to strategizing on how we are going to save all these people.”“Does anyone have any plans? I know everyone has been thinking of things. I want to start off with the kids safety first.” I say turning around to look at the map.“I have an idea.” Buster said.We all turn to look at him.“You said Gamma Dev is taking the lead on the rescue of the kids correct?” Buster asked looking at Dev for conformation.We nod our heads. “Who will be going with him? Like how many warriors? We can’t send to many because then it will lead to an easier attack on the pack if someone knows.”“I planned on taking a few of the higher-ranking warriors, sending a few with Evan also and leaving a handful here to protect t
Everleigh“How do you know Lord Carmykel?” I asked him looking skeptical.“I’ve been to various places, met many sketchy people, but this one here.” He says holding up a picture of one of the guys on a table looking like a lab rat, “Is on a clan grounds. I watched as it was built. It was supposed to be a research center to help find resources for Vampires and hybrids. To find ways for us to go in the sun and not get sick, find ways to help curve our appetite and so forth. That was over 60 years ago when it was built. There was supposedly an accident that destroyed it around ten years ago. Apparently not. From the looks of it, it’s working just fine.” He says lowering the picture.“Where is this research center?” Vor asked him.“Black Lake. It is a little over six hours away by car.”“How far away from White Fang is that?” I asked.
“How did you know?” She asked looking at the floor.“The weird things you eat, you don’t drink which could honestly be just because you don’t like to and your scent has slightly changed.”Oh shit, she’s pregnant! I thought to myself.Everyone’s eyes almost bug out their heads when they whip their heads towards Luna Jazzlynn.“Why didn’t you tell me?” Asked Luna Aria.“We were going to have a party and invite everyone before this shit storm happened.”“Have you had a checkup done recently?” I asked her“No. I haven’t had the chance to yet.” She admits.“Luna Aria, take her down to the clinic and get her checked. The stress of everything going on is not good for her or the pup. We will update you all when you get back.” I say looking at Luna Aria. She nods and stands, grabbing Luna Jazzlyn’s hands and pull
