Walking into Scarlett's house immediately lifts a weight from my shoulders. As soon as I see Scarlett laying on the couch with her new baby laying on her stomach, I breath a sigh of relief. This is definitely as it should be. They are just bonding and enjoying their time together, stress free.I walk over to them and watch the faces that the baby is making at his mother. He cannot seem to figure out what to do with his mouth. As he stares at her face like she is the only thing in the world that means anything, his mouth just keeps forming shapes. It is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. "You made it! I was worried that you would not make it to see my anytime soon." Scarlett says smiling at me. She never takes her eyes off of the baby as she talks to me. I have never seen anybody stare so intently at another person. The love that I can feel between the two is awe inspiring. Quin is nowhere to be seen but I am sure that he is still here for when she needs him."Of course I did
Not using magic is much harder than I had expected. I did not realize how familiar I had grown with it until I tried to not use it. Every time I walked outside or passed a plant, I would automatically try to connect with the earth and help the plants out but at a pointed look from Dante, I stopped. I have not seen Julia or Kevin since I got back and that is something that I am looking forward too. Dante may have let slip that they have been spending a lot of time together. Even Elle mentioned that Julia has not been at the house much lately. They must be growing really close if they are spending all of that time together. "So, what else is planned for today?" I ask Dante."You, in bed." He tells me humorlously."Oh yeah. For some reason you are not making that sound like a fun time." I admit."It will be. There will be movies, and popcorn. Maybe even some nice food. Or junk food. Whichever way you want to go." He tells me with a no nonsense look."Is that all? If so we might have to
All due to the lazy day of hanging out in our bedroom and watching movies all day, I am now ready to get up and back to work the next morning. After a rushed promise just to supervise and not actually use my magic, I am out the door and on my way to the witch's house.Elle must have been hard at work while I was down for the day because the outside of the house is looking way nicer than it was before. Somebody managed to use smooth stones on the entire outside of the house. The dome is still glass but there are now silver trimmings and designs all over the glass. It is tall enough that it can be seen from a distance with the sun glinting off of it."Nice to see you back. Did everything go okay the other day? You rushed out of here rather quickly." Rosa asks as I walk around the house to find her supervising a couple of witches along the side of the house."Yeah, just a baby being delivered. Some unforseen difficulties but everything is much better now. First pup to be born since I hav
As I find yet another argument breaking out between the wolf contractors and the witches, I have come to the conclusion that this might not have been the best idea. Maybe we should have hired humans? Then again, if we had we would not be able to explain any of the stuff that is going on around here. "Rosa, what is going on?" I ask exasperated."They are telling me that they are going to paint the cabinets in here. I thought that we were going to just use magic on them?" She says to me.Right, the painting. Everybody is all upset over some silly paint. This is getting exhausting. It will be a relief when this is all over and everybody can just get to training instead."I told them that I wanted to paint the cupboards. The wood is fantastic but it is going to fade over time. I want them painted but there are some things I am going to add over the paint. Everything that they are doing, I asked them to do." I tell her.She looks at me for a few minutes before spinning on her heel and mar
I get woken up early the next morning by the excitement coming from my cousin. I sit out of bed and look around to see that the sun is just now beginning to hint at rising. It is not even rising yet just thinking about it. Grumbling, I blink the sleep from my eyes before finally remembering what woke me."Scarlett, is everything okay?" I send to her."Yes! Yes, it is! He finally shifted. He is the cutest little wolf I have ever seen. His tail is so cute and fluffy. I just want to squeeze him but I know that he will not appreciate it." She replies to me. Chuckling, I figure I might as well get ready for the day a little early if I am already awake. Grabbing some clothes, I give Dante a quick kiss and head to the bathroom to get dressed. I cannot wait to see her little one in his wolf form again. Sure, I saw him in the womb but that was not with my own eyes. When I finish getting dressed, Dante opens his eyes slightly and I explain where I am going. He turns over and begins to drift o
After practice, I find that I need some fresh air. The entire practice the wolves all watched me closely like they were studying what I was going to do. It is rather intense knowing that they are judging me as something legendary that they want to work towards. I almost feel as if I am on a pedestal. Luckily, Dante agreed that now might be a good time for me to get my alone time.Walking into the woods, I immediately head towards my old den. The last time that I was here, I made a set of stairs leading down and decorated the place just a little bit. Now, I have come up with some other touches that I wish to add. All of this decorating that I have been doing has been filling my mind up with all kinds of ideas.The runes are still etched into the wall which I am happy to see. I do not want to lose this bit of information that was given to me before. It is a prophecy that tells of my purpose in life. Instead of destroying the runes, I line them with gold from the earth. Each rune is fill
The first pack dinner since I have been back is really exciting. All of the wolves seem to be in a much better mood than they had been in before. When the fear of a witch attack was always present, the wolves were much more subdued and on guard than they are now. Plus, we have a new wolf to celebrate.Since Scarlett was a little preoccupied today and did not make cupcakes, we ended up ordering them from a bakery. They are nowhere near as good as hers which always had some out of this world flavors but they are still cupcakes. Amora arrived with Scarlett to help her out with the baby on his first outing. "Hey, Scarlett, how are you doing today?" I ask her."You ask me that everyday." She says with a chuckle."So, I want to make sure that my cousin is doing alright. Fine, how is little Fred doing today?" I ask her."He is doing fantastic. Never stops eating. I am getting sore from nursing him all of the time." She tells me."Hmm....Let me talk to Elle. We might have something that will
I have not been to help the witches in a few days so I am a little worried about what they have managed to accomplish while I was away. I know that they have not been giving the contractors too many problems since they report to me each day. That does not mean that they have been working well together by any means either.When I arrive, I am happy to see that the garden is doing extremely well. They have been tending it almost nonstop and coaxing plenty of life out of it. They have begun planting flowers now and it looks like there is even a little flower garden in the back for them to relax in. Inside, the domed room is almost complete. I still have to finish the fountain but everything else is almost exactly as I pictured it. All of the practice must be doing the witches good since they have been getting more done without me. Each bedroom has a magical lock on it so that only the occupant can get into their rooms without alerting myself and the occupant. There are only a few bedroo
