For the next couple of weeks I continue to make snide remarks around Safiya without actually coming out and telling her that I know what she has been up to. For the first week after my original remark she does not sneak out again but it is not too long before I catch her sneaking out once again. Instead of following her every time I sometimes wait just inside the door as she comes back so that she can see that I know she snuck off. The first time she seems startled and nervous but once she realizes that I am not telling anybody she starts to ignore me.

Knowing that she is getting more comfortable is a bit unsettling. While I do want her to trust me I also would like for her to know that at any time I can reveal her secret. I need to covince her to be on my side if it comes down to a split between the Council members. Considering that she is sleeping with a werewolf it is hard to see her siding with Simonetta but I am sure that it could still happen.

    As all of the witches square off with each other to begin their sparring matches, I prepare myself for a decent show. Most likely just drama filled but I will still take it. Hazel launches herself at Jade without a moments hesitation leaving Jade to scrabble and try to block her. Their enthusiasm for combat shows as they are fighting with very little regard to their actual training. If I did not know any better I would think that they were not friends at all.Carlina and Katrin study each other carefully before setting up for the fight. They circle each other before Katrin finally makes the first move. Carlina blocks the move easily and the fight continues on. They fight the opposite of how Hazel and Jade are still going at it.Both Carlina and Katrin are performing their moves flawlessly. It looks like they have been practicing for quite a while. Each move flows into the next with the opposite person blocking it seamlessly. If I did not know better, I would think that they had been p

    After our first sparring practice we all head back to the house. The witches are all grumbling about how sore they are. Some are even bringing up the sparring match between Blair and Samara. They all seem rather shocked by how much anger was in their match. The matches between the two Council members and Jade and Hazel are spoken of just as frequently. This time with a small amount of reverence.Everybody seems to have much more excitement for the combat training after today. The sparring really put into perspective how much the basics training helps. At the end of the week I would like to have a celebration. I was thinking of doing something like the dinner that I have with the wolves but maybe it is time that we do something else with both species. I do not want to incringe on the pack's dinner but I still want to do something for the witches. I guess that it is possible that I have an entire weekend of celebrations. One day for the wolves, one for the witches and one for a combina

    "What did you want?" Safiya asks when she finally decides to join me in the hallway."Why don't we go up to the library to talk about it?" I tell her. She gives me a look of mistrust as we begin to climb the stairs towards the library. I can only imagine what she is thinking I plan to say to her. Most likely thinks that I am going to bring up the fact that she has been meeting with a werewolf almost every night lately."What is it that you need of me?" Safiya asks defensively."Most likely not what you are thinking. Right now, I want to find more ways for the girls to all bond. I have recently learned of dances that witches used to perform in the past for different reasons. I want more information on those. I want for us to all get out on Saturdays and dance together. Whether it is a rain dance or just for fun. I am just looking for more information on it. Can you help?" I ask her.Her eyebrows raise like she cannot believe what she is hearing. Apparently she is expecting me to ask f

    Arriving at the pack feels like coming home. It was definitely the right decision for tonight. I am looking forward to spending some time at home with Dante and not having to worry about the witches for the night. They always have a way to get ahold of me so I am not worried about them. I can just relax here with the other half of my family.I smile as I walk through the doorway and smell Dante cooking. It has been quite a while since I have had his cooking besides at the pack dinners. It is different when it is just for us though. I had tried to keep my decision to come here out of my mind so that I could surprise him but I must have let something slip on my way since he is cooking.Walking around the corner, I find him dancing around in the kitchen while he is cooking. He is making some type of homemade pasta as I can see the pasta hanging and drying. When he turns and sees me, a huge smile lights his face. Dropping the spoon that he is holding he practically jumps over the counter

    Spending the evening with Dante for dinner was pure bliss. We made a deal not to talk about any threats to us after the dinner was done. Instead, we just caught up on each other, told some stories and enjoyed our company. There was nobody watching and judging me as I ate and socialized. What a freeing feeling.After dinner, we decide to sit in the rec room and watch a movie. There is no point in working on a movie series since we have no idea when I will be back here again. Instead, we choose the movie Eragon. For once, I have to admit that I am not a huge fan of the movie. I read the book at one point and the movie just does not do the book justice. The books were pure genious while the movie was just a little 'bleh'. The story line itself was still pure genious but the way that they made the movie was lacking. I do not see myself watching it again. One good thing that came out of it though, is the fact that I can focus on Dante more instead of focusing on the movie. Snuggling in c

    Friday morning arrives quickly. With it, comes some of the notes from Safiya about the tradition dances. She has notes on a rain dance, a coming of age dance, and even a mate dance. Apparently witches used to do a dance when they wanted to find someone to have a child with. They would ask the Moon Goddess for a sign as to who they should try to conceive with.This is complete news to me as it almost seems like they were looking for something similar to a mate. Sure, werewolves do not have to ask her for a sign for us, but for many of us there is a predetermined perfect mate out there. She has already made the one that she thinks would be the best for us so we just have to keep an open mind when meeting them.Elle informs me that she has never completed this dance before and neither has anybody that she knows. This means that for some reason, witches stopped listening to the Moon Goddess when it comes to their partners. That fact alone shows that they have stopped showing her the respe

    I guess this all technically does not have to be on me. I do not have to fight everybody for the dream that I have. The dream that the Moon Goddess has shown me. That dream shows all of our children living in peace. Both species living together and getting along. Sometimes breeding between the species may occur but that could only benefit us further. This dream is not something that I could ever give up. I want my children to grow up safely. I want them to know that nobody is going to hunt them down the second they walk away from the pack. I want to create a safe place for other hybrids to train and even live. But how do I explain all of that to her?"I have told you about the dreams with the Moon Goddess in the past. I have not quite told you everything though. There are a few things that I did not fully tell you all. She showed me a future. I wonderful future that could change how we all live as well as the relationships that we make in the future." I start telling her.Finding a c

    After talking with Safiya for I find that I have a renewed sense of purpose as I finish my walk to the pack. She surprises me by wanting to come with me to observe how the wolves act when they are not being attacked by witches. Apparently, this is a bit of a foreign concept to her.There are party lights strung along all of the trees encircling the back of the pack house. This time, Dante and Kevin have set up a stereo outside so that everybody can listen to music while we enjoy our dinner. Most of the pack has already arrived and are mulling around, talking to each other in groups.Looking back at Safiya, I can see that she is once again dressed in her typical Witch Council attire. She is wearing a business suit that has a series of lunar phases going up the sides and running under her arms. There is also a small pin on her lapel that shows the symbol for a witch. Might not be the best outfit for her to wear when she wants to blend in and observe the wolves some. Losing all sense of

    "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
