Stephan POV
I stood with Alley behind me watching and listening as Atsila talked about her carrying all the elements but what caught my attention was when he told me to look into my history. I wondered what he meant. "Denver what do you know asshole?" I asked my wolf. Denver scoffed before replying "Why do
I have to be an asshole? You're rude as fuck" "Shut up Denver i'm not joking what. do. you. know." I snapped. "It is somethAlley POVWaking up today seems a lot different than before. Finding out so many secrets is a hard pill to swallow! I might be the next great white witch? Stephan has the ability to shield from dark magic? I feel like my head is spinning but I am going to train today and hopefully get some of the frustrations out. Putting on some shorts and a tank top with some running shoes I went down to meet everyone for breakfast. I instantly smiled seeing everyone. I watched as they laughed and joked with each other. It just makes my heart swell. "Good morning princess, I have your plate waiting for you." Stephan said. How in the hell did I get so lucky? Normally I don't like mushy stuff but with him I find it cute. I sat down beside him and started eating. "What is on todays list after training?" I asked. My mother t
Alleys POV When I opened my eyes I didn't know where I was. Panic started to set in my chest as I stood on my feet. "Hello?" "Hello?!" Nothing. I let my feet carry me forward, straining my eyes to see. It's so dark but kind of looks like a grove? "Don't be afraid she is near" Rose said. "Who is near?" I asked. Looking around I see an oak tree emulating a light. Not a bright light kind of like it made the tree glow. When I got closer I saw a woman sitting on a log. She wore a sheer white dress and had white hair and she glowed like the tree did. "Hello?" She slowly got up and turned to look at me and I gasped. Her eyes are white as snow and her skin is pale but in a beautiful way. Her hair flowed as if there was wind but there wasn't any. She had the biggest smile on her face. "Hello Alley I'm Davina, I represent Spirit. I was going to wait to be the last one but I noticed how your body is wearing down easily after one of us bestows your gift to you." She said her voice was like
Alley POV After the last movie everyone headed to bed. Stephan and I did our best to fix the bed that was now broken. We had already ordered a new one but still we needed something to sleep on tonight. We put the mattress on the floor and piled up all the broken pieces in the corner to take out tomorrow. Just before we drifted off to sleep Alex belched out in our mind links "Stephan vampires are attacking!" We shot out of bed and I sent a quick mind link to my parents and brothers. "Where are they?!" Stephan shouted "North end Luna." "We are on our way" We rushed out of our room at the same time as everyone. I turned to my mom, "Help me get the women and children to safety." I looked at Stephen, my brother and my dad. "Please be safe, I will join when we are finished." Before Stephen could reply I grabbed my mother and ran outside. Everything was in total chaos. Most of the women and children were running to the bunker, we ran to them to round them all up, both of us on each side,
Alley POV As I looked at everyone they looked exhausted and scared. "How about we all rest and meet at 8AM?" Most nodded their heads while others went back to their homes. "We need to speak to this vampire now." I said turning to head for the dungeons with my family on my heels. Stephan, Alex and Brandon were already there and have made no progress in getting the vampire to talk. As we made our way down the smell hit my nose, the smell of blood and rotten flesh, I'll have to have someone clean this. I could feel how angry Stephan was. His eyes had turned black, I walked up to him and put my hand on his shoulders. He turned and wrapped his arms around me, sticking
Alley POV I was stunned to see the people before me bow their heads. Why are they bowing? It's not like I'm their ruler or anything. "Sorry to ask but why are you bowing and what is your name?" The woman raised her head with a smile on her face. "My name is Nikki, we bow our heads in respect, you see the great white witch is the one we turn to for support when we need it most." She replied, "Who are the gentlemen beside you? I'm assuming that he is your husband and those are your children?" The man offered a simple smile while the children stood behind them. "My name is Matthew and these are our children, Sammie and Jack." Matthew said. "It is very nice to meet all of you, I'm
Alley POV When we got back to the house we all turned to Nikki and Matthew, the kids seemed more nervous than they were before, probably because no one has caught on to the fact they have two elements. "Luna, we meant no disrespect. I swear we were just trying to protect our kids." Nikki said, "I'm not mad so there's no need to worry but why do they have two elements?" I asked. "We don't know, we have been doing research on it the best we can. It's rare that someone gets more than one." Matthew spoke, in reality I don't know the history of the witches all that well because up until now I wasn't one. "Tell us what you know about the great white
Alley POV: I could feel a burst of anger rush through Stephen and before I could figure out what was going on he came bursting through the doors. A sheer look at anger was clear as day on his face. Everyone was one their feet and oddly Sammie and Jack were at my side. I stepped forward knowing Stephen was losing the battle with his wolf. I wrapped my arms around his waist and he instantly hugged me back sticking his face in the crook of my neck. "What's wrong?" I asked. He finally let me go and looked down at me. "Someone got in and killed the vampire we had in the cells, they also left a note.." The last part of his sentence fell off
Alley POV: Waking up I felt different, not in a bad way. More like energized. I turned in Stephens arms to see him staring right at me. "Good morning princess." I smiled at him. "Good morning." "Your eyes are bright red this morning. What happened?" He asked. Oh right I fell asleep before he came back home and didn't tell him. "We used a sort of protection that surrounds our pack borders and my fathers pack, it's like what the twins did except I extended it further, anyone who has ill intentions can't pass through it." I said, giving him a quick explanation. "You surprise me everyday." He moved his head towards me and I met him in the middle. Our lips met and sparks went flying, it felt more intense this time and I didn't know why. He rotated us so that he was on top of me laying between my legs. Reaching his hand under my shirt grasping my breast, a moan escaped my lips and he used that to slide his tongue in. Both of us fighting for dominance in which he won. I could feel the he
Alley POV: I heard gasps around the room and I knew this would be the reaction, "Yes, some of you knew Raleigh the precious great white witch, but Alley has proven she will hold her responsibilities with ease and pride, she fought bravely against Bosch and won, and it is my honor to introduce the two that will lead this council, Alpha Quincy my shield, Luna Alley, my Great White Witch of the Black Wood Pack!" Atheas voice boomed with pride and approval, the room exploded with cheers as we walked down the stairs and the room came in to view I could see a lot of them had shifted and were howling I could see my parents and my brothers with their mates crying and clapping, I held my head a little higher as pride swelled within me more than it already has. Packs that didn't know us looked to us with happiness, I held on tighter to Stephens arm. Not that I was afraid of anyone but I didn't want to trip on my own two feet and fall face first, that would be incredibly humiliating. As we reac
Alley POV: Today is the day we are officially announced as the counsel and honestly I am thrilled. We broke the news to everyone yesterday of my pregnancy and I was happy to learn that Ambrosia is also pregnant! She is farther along than I am but they kept it a secret until we were all together. I couldn't shake the sickness so Pythia had a calming tea made for me. She said it helped her through her pregnancy with Apollo. We are all curious to see if their kids will have traits of wolf and vampire but in time we will figure it out. As I finished dressing I took a long look at myself, with each year that passes my hair continues to grow more white. Not that I mind but in truth it is starting to look like Atheas hair. I often wondered what Raleigh looked like, I bet she was beautiful. One day I will get to meet her, a soft knock on the door before it opens to the most handsome man I have ever laid my eyes on. "You look beautiful and glowing princess." Stephen said, leaning against the
Alley POV: Oh I am going to kill Stephen. Okay well it takes two but still! Stephen started rubbing my back and I growled out. "Whoa easy there Alley what's wrong?" Stephen said, jerking his hand away. I stood up and turned to him. "Rose told me that I am pregnant." I muttered. A huge grin started spreading across his face. "Is she sure? We can get a test. Or I can call Julie. This is good news!" Stephen said, visibly excited. I narrowed my eyes and placed my hands on my hips. "You're not excited?" Stephen asked. "Well the last time it was twins, even though I had an easy pregnancy my back hurt like hell and I looked like a bloated whale!" I yelled. I could tell Stephen was trying his hardest not to laugh at me and I felt overly emotional right now. "It's going to be okay princess I promise. I've called Julie to meet us here and I am having Alex and Brandon pick up the twins." Stephen said. I wanted to cry. I wanted to have a total meltdown. I felt the sting in my eyes and I couldn't
Alley POV: It's been a very busy year. After we had the twins everything else happened at once, the other women had their babies a few days after I did. We have spent so much time together while our mates moved forward with the castle for the counsel and we have decided that we were all going to move in it and keep our Betas and Gammas at the pack houses, we wanted all of our kids to be close with each other because something deep within me told me that when it is time they will resume to counsel. Ambrosia and Jackson built a new castle for themselves a little closer while leaving the previous one to those who needed a home. Pythia and Tye have done the same although their home isn't as large but still, they built something of their own to have. We decided that it was best that we stay closer together, we were suppose to have the ceremony for us but with all of us having the babies Athea decided to hold off and let us finish what we needed to, tomorrow is the celebration and l
Alley POV: Oh my goddess it feels like she is literally trying to break me apart! "You're at a five, you will need to come with me to the hospital." Julie said, removing her hand. "How? I've only felt it a few times." I asked. I'm already halfway there and I've barely felt the pain. "Rose might be blocking some of that pain. Have you felt her?" Stephen asked as he helped me sit up. "Actually I haven't felt her since the pain started." I replied. "Rose? Are you holding the pain back?" I asked. "Yes, not much of it though." Rose replied as she sunk back into my mind. "She said she has but she hasn't held much of it back." I said looking at Julie. "Go get her bag ready and be back down here in five minutes." Julie said look at Stephen who quickly got to his feet and ran upstairs. Sammie helped me stand to my feet and I could already feel the soreness. Another sharp pain hit me and this time it felt like a steel cage was wrapped around my stomach. I gasped, grabbing onto Sammies arm. "Ow
Alley POV: I swear to the goddess I am going to pop any down now. I only have a few more days and I feel as big as a whale, my feet look like I am wearing puffer fish as slippers according to Alex and Brandon but in reality my feet are just swollen, not that I can see because I can't see over the ginormous belly that has sprung out. I literally can't do anything on my own, hell I can't even balance properly because I waddle everywhere. "Good morning princess." Stephen says as he walks out of the bathroom looking more than good. "Don't look at me like that, Julie said no sex until after and I'm not getting in trouble." Stephen stated narrowing his eyes at me. I may have gotten him in trouble a few times but what can I say? My hormones are out of control. "I'm not even sorry, can you help me please?" I asked to take the covers off of me. I want to shower and try to get my day started. Stephen walked over and grabbed my arms sitting me up, he placed one hand at my lower back while st
Alley POV: Julie picked up the little wand and placed it on my belly, I held my breath not taking my eyes off the screen, "Come on little bean where are you hiding?" Julie whispered as she pulled the screen towards her. Before I knew it the sound of a little heartbeat filled the room. "Is- is that little one's heartbeat?" Stephen whispered, clutching my hand. "It is, just give me a second." Julie replied, moving the little wand around more. "Well look at that." Julie whispered. I could hear my own heartbeat filling my ears and my blood pumped through it hard. I started breathing harder, "Look at what? What is it? Is the baby okay?" I hammered out questions like my life depended on it, "Alley, deep breath the babies are fine." Julie said as an ass splitting grin came across her face. "I'm sorry what?" Stephen asked. "The babies, plural." Julie replied, turning the screen towards us. "Babies? More than one? WHAT?!" I jerked my head to look at the screen and what I saw could have made
Alley POV: "Stephen! Get your ass down here and bring Alex, Brandon and Jack with you!" I yelled as I stared at my living room that had junk food and crap laying around. I took Sammie out for dinner last night as a thank you for all she has done for me. I felt a little bad for Jack but I needed help with pregnancy things that grossed Jack out. While we were out the boys had a night of playing games and drinking, when Sammie and I went to bed they were still awake rough housing like boys do. I am now three months pregnant and starting to show, but with that I get tired extremely easily, we finally get to go see Julie to get an ultrasound and when my eyes landed on the site before me anger rolled off me. "YOU ALL HAVE THREE SECONDS TO GET YOUR ASSES DOWN HERE!" I roared, immediately footsteps rattled the house. Beth rounded the corner and a hard look set on her face. "Beth, come stand by me please." I said smiling at her, she lowered her head but did as I asked. The four men ran dow
Alley POV: I felt a little bad that they had been waiting on me so long, but as soon as my eyes met Stephen's bright blue ones all my senses kicked into overdrive and it felt like it was our first date all over again. Rose purred louder in my head as I took in his crisp white suit with a matching white tie and flat top shoes. His hair was slicked back and he looked mighty fine. "You look beautiful princess." Stephen said as he extended his hand to me. I felt the blush creep across my face. "Thank you for walking her down Jack." Stephen said, looking at Jack. I knew it, I knew he sent Jack. "My witches and alphas, it is time." Athea said, gaining all of our attention. I see white was the right choice, Athea looked breathtakingly beautiful. Her hair was braided like a warrior, she wore a light shade of blue eye shadow that made her eyes stand out on a new level. There was a glow around her that rolled off positive vibes in waves. We all walked outside and out in the middle of the field
