Alley POV: "What happened to Atsila?" Emma asked. "He was forced to do work for Bosch. When we placed Stephens Shield up he couldn't get through it which meant he was in contact with dark magic, but when Bosch showed himself here Atsila was with him with a few others. One of which is his mate or so we think. Bosch kidnapped her and Atsila did what he had to do to save her." I said feeling a little sad that he hasn't been found yet. I feel horrible for everything that happened. "Has anyone from y'alls packs gone missing in the last few months?" Stephen asked "None from ours. We haven't had any attacks lately now that I think about it." Alpha Josh who is Stefanies mate said. "That just means Bosch is focusing on recruiting people. We need to start preparing, Alley can help the women set up shields in case someone were to attack, how about first thing in the morning the alphas get together in my office and the woman can work on protection?" Stephen said, looking at each of them. One by
Alley POV: Sitting around the table for breakfast everyone seemed a little more relaxed. Little Danny was sent off to school and it was harder to let him go honestly but I know he needed to go since we had stuff we needed to do. After todays events I needed to figure out why I feel the pull towards him. We had decided that the men would go start a plan while the women started the wall of protection for the remaining packs. My mother found some other information, apparently she stayed up late reading over everything. "So what I have found about the six women who are gifted, they were also Raleighs council. They were to ones to go to if something big happened, helped keep the peace among everyone." My mother said, Okay that made sense I guess, there has to be people like the human government right? "They all became very close friends, all had strong mates but.." My mother looked down, stopping mid sentence. "But what?" I asked, I felt like I was sitting on the edge of my chair. "Wh
Alley POV: My mother cleared her throat before she spoke, "I know the topic was sore in front of your mates and I hope they figure out a different way of connection but as I read you six will be the witches council and your mates will be the wolfs council, together you all are to keep the peace and everyone in line." That made sense, two different councils for each creature. "What about the vampires? Was there a council for them?" I asked her as the thought crossed my mind. "Not that I have found just yet, I focused more on why you six ladies were gifted." She said, smiling at them. Many thoughts flew around my mind. How were we going to keep the vampires in check? Did they have a council of their own? I pray to the goddess Stephen and the others can figure out a way for us to communicate without having a blood bond. If one of us falls the others shouldn't be penalized for it, I mean hopefully none of us die but if we do then the others need to keep fighting or everything we have do
Alley POV: Everything was a blur. The moment they landed in front of us beaten, battered and bloodied everything in me went numb. Hell I didn't even notice the ear piercing screams that came from the others. Before I knew it I was up on my feet running to them. What happened to them? They are element barriers for goddess sake! What the hell could have done that to them? Atsila and the woman laid out on the ground, eyes closed. Fuck! Where are they dead? They didn't say anything and I tried my hardest to get to them but Alex and Brandons wolves cut us off and Stephen had his arms around me. I could feel the tears burn my eyes while I tried to push him off of me, I needed to get to them. "Stephen we have to help them!" I shouted, thrashing around trying to break his hold on me. "We will Alley breath. Get them all inside now!" Stephen barked out. Alex and Brandon shifted and I saw the other alphas rush to their mates. "Alley princess what happened?" Stephen asked, pulling my face tow
Alley POV: I watched as Atsila ran his fingers over Stellas face. He looked sad and relieved at the same time. "I wasn't there when it happened, they held a ritual before I even met Stella. He said he could feel the next great white witch going to rise and where so they held it before Alley even knew she was a witch." Atsila said. So she knew? How in the hell did he know it would be me and where I was even at? Why did Bethany even help him? I honestly hoped she could see me ripping her limb from limb in her near future. "He kept track of the linkage and watched everyone, he needs you to have all your powers and the power from the golden moon to sacrifice you to gain your powers." Atsila said, it sent chills down my spine. How was he left alive after what he did? Was this all a game to him? For shits sake he could have taken my ass out long ago but he wouldn't gain any powers if I didn't have mine. "How does he plan to take Alleys power?" My mother asked, her words came out harsh an
Alley POV: It felt like someone punched me straight in the gut and knocked the wind out of me, when I recovered anger filled my veins "He is MINE!" I roared, feeling heat rise from my core. I knew my eyes were bright red. I heard gasps behind me but I didn't care, not a single shred. My eyes locked on Stella who looked terrified of me sensing how angry I am. "What else do you know?!" I shouted. Stephen wrapped his arms around me whispering in my ear, "Alley you have to calm down no one is going to touch Danny." My body was shaking and tense but I never took my eyes off of Stella. Her almond eyes were wide as saucers. "I, uh-.." She stammered on her words which didn't do a damn thing to calm me. "What the fuck does she want with him?" I sneered, slowly losing my battle with Rose. "Take a deep breath princess, breathe for me." Stephen kept saying in my ear, I could tell he was worried Rose would come out and that would be one giant ass shit show. "When Danny is gifted her power wil
Alley POV: The front door opened and my parents walked in, both their bodies were pushed apart due to Danny running full speed at me and Stephen. I held my arms open and he ran straight in to them, "Hi Luna! They picked me up early today! Can we play? I am hungry though.." Danny was talking faster than ever until he saw Athea staring at him with a wide smile. His little face scrunched together like he was thinking. "You were in my dreams.." Danny stated looking up to her. "I was Danny do you remember what I told you?" Athea asked him, tilting her head to the side. "I do! You said I would be able to see the future and be big and strong." Danny said lifting his little arms and curling them trying to show off his little muscles. A giggled escaped my lips, he was so adorable, not even realizing who Athea is. He had the purest innocence. Athea chuckled before she kneeled down in front of him. "You will be able to see the future but you can't tell anyone what you see, it could get someone
Stephens POV: I've never seen Alley get so mad so quickly before, I swear I thought she would burst into flames the moment Stella said what she did. The protective side of Alley was something I'd always loved about her, but the thing that stunned me the most is that the moon goddess herself showed up. Who would have thought her real name is Athea, there's a lot of information we gained. One Atsila wasn't lying to us and I feel like a complete dick, second Danny is the true Seer. She visited him in his dreams but she also assured us that Bethany would have no clue that he was gifted which gives us the upper hand. Now we just need to figure out our plan of attack because I know Alley won't want to wait around for them to attack us, we've already sent trackers out to hunt down Bethany. I know Alley wants her dead rightfully so, and I won't feel bad for her. Not even in the slightest. It seems like the other Alphas are a little more at ease with what will happen, Collin usually bucks
