2022-01-01 08:03:55When we sit down, Dante places a steak on each of our plates. The baked potatoes are all wrapped in aluminum foil so I grab one of those as well. I cannot remember if I like these or not but I am willing to try. Dante also made some asparagus to go with the meal. That, I know that I like so I grab some of that as well. I am still not sure what the butter sauce was for but after watching Dante pour some onto his steak I follow suit. Taking my first bite, my tastebuds erupt with flavors. The butter sauce adds an amazing kick of garlic and herbs that pairs well with the asparagus as well. Before I know it, I am done with my steak and moving onto my baked potato. I open it up and cut it in half like I saw the other do. I slather the inside in butter and dig in. This is not my favorite out of the food on my plate but I do still like it. I can understand why people eat it with steak. I eat only about half of it before giving up and admitting defeat. I am stuffed.

For the first time, I wake up with plans for the day. That has not happened as long as I can remember. Sure, I have had things that I want to do but I have not made plans for the day before. These plans are with a friend too at that. I can't remember ever having a friend before either. These are entirely new grounds that I am trying to circumvent. Not sure how excited I should be, but I do know that I am excited, and nervous. Very nervous actually. A new haircut seems really daunting considering it is something as silly as having having something cut that will grow back. Still, it is slightly nervewracking to be taking on something like this only a week after leaving behind a life of solitude.Dante and I eat a light breakfast together and talk about some of the pack members. He tells me a bit about the one that is pregnant and how her mate tragically died not long ago, meaning that the fact that I picked out a present for her means more than it might have for any other pack

The salon is a little white building with a hot pink trim and a front door that matches. It looks cute, kind of like what I would imagine for the barbies that I played with as a young child. When we walk in though, the pink is a little less dramatized as almost all of the surfaces are a gleaming stainless steel with just some slight hot pink trim running through the building. Most of the surfaces that are not steel are white though. It looks very bright and open."Hello, how may I help you ladies?" The woman at the front desk asks helpfully."I believe that Alpha called yesterday and made two hair appointments for today." Scarlett supplies."Oh, yes. We are just sweeping up the hair from the last lady now. Can I get you guys a drink while you wait?" The lady offers."Sure, a couple of white wines would be perfect." Scarlett says.We sit down to wait and I take a better look around. All of the workers are wearing the same white button up

So, clothes shopping. Hmmm. Not sure what I expected but the store being this big was not what I was thinking. I figured it would be a nice, small store that not too many people are in. But, Scarlett, she took me to the mall. There are many stores everywhere. They are all huge. How am I supposed to find anything I want to buy in a place this large?"Are you okay? You look like you might be getting a little overwhelmed. We can leave if you want?" Scarlett offers. She seems to be genuinely worried about me so I just try to assure her that we are fine so that we can get some shopping done.She informs me that yoga pants are a type of exercise pant so we go into an exercise store to look for clothes first. When she told me that there are many types of yoga pants she was not exaggerating. There are some in almost every color and design. This is amazing. Some are thicker than others, while some are so thin that I am not sure I would feel comfortable wearing them out in

Wow, these bags pile up fast. Didn't think I bought that much while shopping but there are at least 20 bags here. I hope Dante is not too upset with everything I bought. He did say to buy as much as I wanted though. Still, Scarlett and I both had our arms full when we walked in the door. Dante is, of course, standing in the kitchen putting dinner on plates when he looks up and sees us."Wow, that is a lot of stuff. If you leave it there I will help you put it all away." He offers chuckling."Sorry, I did not realize that I bought this much. Is that alright?" I ask worriedly."Yes, it is fine. I hope you had fun and left some clothes for other people." He replies.I turn to Scarlett before she leaves to thank her for taking me out. She smiles and says, "Go show him your hair. I am sure that he will love it. Call me later and tell me what his reaction is." She turns with a wink and heads out of the door.At that thought, I grow a little e

A week has went by since my little shopping trip with Scarlett. Each day I feel a little more comfortable and sure of myself around Dante. We have sadly, been keeping the kissing to a minimum to make it easier on Dante. He continues to be a perfect gentleman and not pressure me into doing anything I am not ready for.We have decided that it is now finally time to start teaching the female wolves how to fight and defend themselves. As future Luna, I am going to begin my training earlier than the rest of the women. As daunting as learning to fight is, I am excited to be able to defend myself. I have had this niggling fear that I am going to need to know how to defend myself in the future when I consider my past.I might not be mentally sure that I am ready to learn but I know I am physically. Since I have been getting regular meals, I have put on a little much needed weight and I am in much better shape than before. I even have all of the proper workout cloth

Pizza arrived rather quickly and before I knew it we were both sitting on the couch eating pizza and trying to decide on a movie. I have no idea what some of the movies that have come out in the last 10 years are and I am not really in the mood for a kid's movie so I am afraid that I am not much help for poor Dante. The questions that Dante asked me earlier about my parent's murder keep running through my head. What if I missed some random detail that might point us in the right direction? As far as I know, I do not have any family members left to help me figure out what happened. I am not even sure I remember how to get to my old house. It would take a lot of backtracking and I am not completely sure that I would be able to."Laina, did you hear me?" Dante asks.Shaking out of my thoughts I reply, "No, sorry. What did you ask?""Well, I asked if you wanted to watch Hansel and Gretel. I would rather know if you are okay though? You have been quiet ev

The next morning dawns nice and early. After completing the mating bond last night I feel like an entirely new person. My mind is clear and I feel more determined than ever for training today. That is, until I stretch. Everything hurts! Why would I do this to myself. I am not sure if it is all from exercising so much yesterday or if some of it is from last night as well.I can do this though, I can get up and start training. I will not lay in bed all day. That is exactly what I am doing right now though. I still haven't managed to get myself out of bed. Groaning, I turn over to look for Dante but he is already gone. As soon as I think of him I feel him in my mind. I can hear him chuckle slightly at my realization that I can communicate with him telepathically after the bond is in place."I guess you are awake now. Ready to join me in the gym?" He asks.Groaning, I reply, "No, it hurts.""What hurts?" He asks concerned."Ever

Finding out where my childhood home might be located is invigorating. Even though I know that we need a plan, I am infinitely more determined to go and look for it. Is it as I remember or is it something different? Will there be clues as to what happened to my parents? All of these questions keep spinning in my head and I do not have an answer until we actually find the house. Deciding it best that we focus on my training some more before we try to go find it, we settle down for some lunch. This time we are just having some nice and simple sandwiches and chips for lunch. There is a touch of horseradish on our deli style sandwiches which is simply amazing. We begin to plan when we can go and look for the house as we eat. He makes me promise that when I do find it I do not try to go into the house alone. I agree with it considering we do not know if it is going to be a trap or not. "So, have you tried to contact anybody else through the mind link yet? Dante asks.

"Wait, you can do that?" Frank asks shocked. "Yes, of course I can. It is not something that I have done often, actually only one other time but it is an option. It is one that terrifies her." I admit. "Who did you do it to before?" Rand asks me. "I did it to Morden. There was no other way to stop her from coming after my pack or my family." I answer simply. "Your grandmother said that Simonetta was behind that the entire time. That only makes it right that she gets the same punishment if not worse than what Morden received." Rand points out. I had not thought of it that way but it is true. Still, we need to have a system set up for something like this. Otherwise, there will always be somebody that takes advantage of the power and that is not something that I can condone. "That is very true. I had not thought of that but this is not a decision to be made lightly. There might be longer reaching consequences that even I am not aware of by using this ability. Still, I see no other o

It did not take long at all for the Hybrid Council to arrive. They all file in looking a little shocked to see Simonetta there, unable to use her magic as she floats slightly in the air. Quickly, they find their seats. Then, both Rand and Frank walk in as well. I had not thought of inviting them but I am glad that Dante did. With how long she terrorized their pack it is only fitting that they are here for this as well.I smile at them all as they whisper among themselves for a few moments. This is a bit of a shock for those that were not here to see Simonetta arrive. For Frank and Rand, they finally see their enemy tied up and floating in the air. They are not aware that I can take away her ability to use magic so this is going to be a shock to them when the meeting starts. "I take it you called us all here for a reason?" Elle says once everyone starts to calm down."Yes, I did. As everybody here knows, Simonetta has caused quite a few problems for us. She has terrorized werewolves,

Simonetta rushes towards me using wind to guide her speed. It is not enough to throw me off guard though and I shove a wall of dirt up in front of me. She almost crashes into it before she is able to skid to a stop at the last second. If she had prepared then she might have been able to use the air that was helping her speed up to me to jump over the wall but instead, she is used to using her other powers for combat and did not make the decision in time.As soon as she begins to stop, I tear down the wall and shift into werewolf form quickly to land on top of her with my teeth to her neck. Out of all of the forms that I could have turned into this was the only one that registered as an option. I would like for her to see the one thing that she thinks is beneath her be the thing that brings her down. For once, she surprises me when she throws me off of her with some air. I quickly flip over and land on my paws. I shift back and face her again. She is breathing hard and I find myself a

As soon as my illsuion drops I see Simonetta's face blanche. Chelsea drops to the ground and has it swallow her up as she falls through it to meet the others. I send her a brief thank you as she helps to keep them all safe from whatever back up plan Simonetta could have.She sends me a sad farewell. Apparently she is worried about whether or not I am going to make it out of this one. I might not have used much magic recently but I guarantee that there is no way I will let her get away with this threat. Today, she is going to go down and she is not going to be a threat to anybody with werewolf blood ever again."Wait, you had the baby? No! You can't have had it already!" She screams in rage."Actually, I can. There was nothing stopping me from having it. There is also nothing in the way of me putting a stop to you and your bullying once and for all" I say. She takes a few steps back as she steels herself for what we bothk now is going to happen next. It is a shame that the rest of the

"Why would she ever want to go with you?" I ask Simonetta in shock."I am sure that she can see the benefits when she realizes that if she doesn't then she will never get to meet the bundle of joy in your stomach. I will personally make sure that you are unable to deliever them. After all, the more powerful the babes the less the mother can use magic so I am sure that you are not able to defend yourself very well." Simonetta says triumphantly.I try my best to look worried. I really do. I find that it is difficult to be worried about her though. She has never really had a lot of sway over me. Even when I first realized how much stronger than her I am I had found it difficult to be scared of her. "You really think that I am afraid of you? Even without being able to use my powers you do not worry me. I have plenty of other witches that are able to come and help me." I say."Not before something bad happens to you. Chelsea, I would hate to see for anything bad to happen to Laina. I just

Each team splits up and gets ready to make their way through the obstacle course. They are all going to have to take turns trying to make it through safely. Each team has a designated amount of time before they get elminated. The one that makes it through the fastest and with the least amount of mistakes, will be the ones to win the competition. The course is very similar to the one that we did with the entire pack when we first started training. The one that really got the women moving faster as they fought to make good time through the course to beat the men. This one is just a little more geared towards children and not fully grown adults.Some of the obstacles are smaller to better accomodate their size, some things are closer together and they have even added some new obstacles that would have been difficult for the adults. There are also some obstacles that are going to require teamwork to make it through. If they do not work together then they have no hope of making it to the

It takes much longer than planned to get the babies ready for travel. I have never packed a diaper bag before but luckily Scarlett shows up to help me get them ready and squeal over the twins for a minute. Or more precisely, several minutes."I can't believe that they are finally here! I swear it felt like your pregnancy was never going to end. Every time that I thought you were going into labor and you never did. Yesterday, I had no idea that you were going into labor. How did you keep that from me?!" She says to me."It was not exactly on purpose. I did not even know that I was in labor until I spoke to Dante and then Elle confirmed it. It was a really odd day. We had a lot that happened that day so I thought that everything I was feeling was just from stress." I admit to her."Ha! For once, I could have answered that if you had just talked to me. Instead, you have me doing made up jobs with you to help me out." She says excitedly.I shake my head as she begins showing me exactly h

The first night with the babies was quite a bit of a learning curve. Whenever we put them in their bassinets they just started to cry nonstop until we picked them up again. It took a couple of hours to find out that if we put them into the same bassinet they were able to sleep peacefully and not wake us up. By the time we managed learning that, I was beyond exhausted and ready to sleep. Thankfully, there was more than enough people in the house to help us out throughout the night.When I wake up I find that Dante is already standing over their bassinet watching them sleep. They have managed a few hours of sleep straight which for me was quite shocking considering that they are newborns. "How are they?" I ask him sleepily.Chelsea decided to sleep on one of the loveseats last night as well. She was just too excited to go to sleep in her bedroom after I had the babies. I do not blame her but as she shifts when I start talking I do realize that that might have been a mistake. She is goi

Chelsea comes running in once the babies start to cry for food. Her face is filled with excitement as she rushes over to me. Even though they are hungry, I allow her to hold and rock Caterine while I first feed Archer. I might get good enough to be able to feed them both at once in the future but for now feeding just one is tricky. I never knew that it could be this hard to feed a baby."Hi Caterine, I am your Aunt Chelsea. We are going to be best friends. You are going to get to go to school with werewolf pups and use magic. It is going to be wonderful. I can't wait to teach you everything that I know." Chelsea coos to the baby making all of us smile.It is a good thing that she already has so much experience being around babies because she does a great job holding Caterine while Archer is feeding. She does sit down though as she looks at her. Even though Caterine was crying just a moment ago from hunger, she is now looking at Chelsea with wide eyes. Werewolf pups have much better ey
