61: Annie's POV

last update Last Updated: 2022-03-14 01:30:24

Dawn can't be more than an hour away, but it seems that the vampire's either don't care, or they want to wait until the last second. 

More and more of my warriors are falling to injuries, we have only a few dead, but more than half are injured to the point they can no longer fight. Ansel called in the mothers as back up, and that helped, but I fear it was too little and too late. In this moment I wish more than anything that I knew how to trigger the powers I seem to have, but I have not had the time to figure out how they work yet. 

The fog is thinning now, I can see through it to the ither side, and what I see there does not help my moral. The entire pack is surrounded, witches, and more rogue wolves seemed to have joined them, they are lined up 3 deep, incircling the whole pack town. 

My breath catches in my throat, keeping my eyes on the enemy lines I reach out my hand to Ansel. The moment we join hands I know that we are both thinking the sam

    I walk ove to Annie, she is talking to her Alpha, and I want to see what the plan is for the day. "Hello Alpha Maxwell, it's good to see you again, thank you for coming to help us. I know our packs have never been allies, so i appreciate that you came." I know that he came to help Annie, not me, but it would be bad form to not thank an Alpha in this situation. "My King, there is no need to thank me. It is entirely my pleasure. And please call me Maxwell." He says with a smile. "Thank you Maxwell, please call me Ansel, king still feels odd to me." I say with a chuckle. "So... what's the plan for the day? The mother's want to know if it is safe to bring out the children, or if we should keep them in the safe house fo now?" "Uncle Maxwell and his warriors are going to take over running the boarder patrol, and they will station guards around the square so we can all get some sleep. After we are all rested up we will make up a shift rotat

    I wake up to Ansel gently shaking me awake. I smile up at him and say "Good morning Handsome, what time is it?" "Hey there sleepy girl." He says with a smile. "It is almost 6 o'clock, I already spoke to alpha Maxwell, he is setting up dinner for us now, why don't you get changed and we can meet up with everyone." "Yeah, okay. I just need to go to the bathroom first." I stand up and Ansel hands me a pile of clothes to take with me. I walk into the bathroom, I really need to pee, it has been nearly 24 hours since I used the bathroom, or eat... I flush the toilet and wash my hands, the coolness of the water is refreshing. I splash the cold water on my face, it helps wake me up. Ansel picked out some clothes for me, underwear, and bra are just normal. The pants are my favorite pants, and the shirt... It smells like him, he gave me one of his own shirts. I smile a little as I bring the collar of the shirt up to my nose and take a deep breath. I love th

    "Wait, before we vote does anyone have any questions? Or anything that they would like to add to the conversation before we vote..?" Ansel says quickly. "Good point" I concede to him with a nod of my head, then I turn back to the table and add "does anyone have anything to add?" "Well, actually... if we combine packs, what does that mean for the ranks? With the exception of Alpha each pack has someone for each rank, and for that matter for each job. I mean, I know my wheelhouse is not very big, but I am in charge of all the cooking and cleaning staff, will have to fight to keep my job?" Miss. Frankie asks. I turn to Matteo, since the council has the most experience with this, they help merge packs when one Alpha defeates another in a challenge, or when smaller packs join together to become one. "Well, there are options as far as the ranks go, it is usually left up to the alpha to decide which method is used. The 2 wolv

    Now that we are all agreed on having the two packs merge we start in on the topic of moving to the Queen's Keep. I have only ever seen the place once, as a pup my pack took us on a field trip to see the keep. No one live's there, but the council sends people to check up on the place a couple times a year. And other packs also send children there on field trips. The castle itself is huge, it could house both our packs 5 times over. That is not even taking into account the surrounding houses and other buildings. It is similar to the set up of the town square here, houses and apartment buildings for the pack members and families that do not want to live in the pack house. Then there are stores, grocery stores, bakery's, butchers, toy stores, all those things a normal town has, werewolves usually like to keep to themselves for the most part, so we usually have what we need in the pack town. The queen's keep is different from a regular pack set u

    "That means that me and Ansel will have to separate... Annie in the first group and me in the second, since the pack is taking to different path's to the castle. Also, now that I am thinking about it, the last group of 100 warriors, we shouls split them into 2 groups of 50, they can both leave at the same time, each taking one of the route's to make sure their was no one left behind." I say, trailing off as I get lost in thought. "That is a good point Ansel, agreed." Annie says as she leans down and makes the changes on her list. We work out the details, deciding exactly who will go with each group. The lead warriors know which of their warriors are best suited for each take. The Luna of Annie's pack and my mother, being the former Luna of my pack, it is their jod to know the name, rank, age, and general health of every member of the pack. Alpha Maxwell had made a point of talking to each of the rogue wolves who had joined us during the fighting. He made

    I can see the shock on everyone's face's that I called a vote so fast, I didn't give anyone the chance to ask any questions. It does show how much my people already trust me that they are willing to follow what I want so blindly."I know that you all have a lot questions, and we will have plenty of time for that, for right now I will just be giving you a basic overview, and we will answer your questions later." I say, looking to Ansel, knowing that he will want to be the one to tell his people what is happening."I know you are all conserned about keeping your ranks and jobs. Me and Alpha Maxwell are working closely together on this, along with select members of each pack, we are going to be talking to each of you individualy over the next few weeks to work it all out, unfortunatly we do have more pressing matters so although the packs will be merged together in a few minutes time we will be too busy over the next few days to deal with the ranks and jobs."

    "Queen Annie, can I have a word with you for a moment?" I turn to see one of the doctors taling to me. "Of course Doctor...?" I don't know his name, do I trail off questioningly. "It's Doctor Fritz." He says "Right, Doctor Fritz, how can I help you?" I ask him "Well, I was looking at the evacuation group list's, and I noticed that you have some of the wounded listed on there as warriors or mothers... And I know that half of them will be healed enough to travel on their own by the time it is time to leave, but some of the more serious wounds and Molly is still in a coma. Moving her will not be easy..." He is trying to be polite, and I can see that, but I can also see that he is mad. "I understand, we didn't take the wounded into account, I should have thought about that, I am sorry... What do you suggest? Ambulence's? I know we have a few, but I doubt we have enough to move all of the wounded in them." I say, asking his opinio

    After a few hours of driving alone, listening to music, I have a sudden idea. I pick up my cell phone and call Ansel. He picks up the phone quickly, he sounds worried when he answers. "Hey, is everything okay?" Ansel asks. "Yes, everything is fine... I just thought that since we are going to be driving all day long, and we are both alone in our cars... we could talk..? I mean, we haven't really had the chance to get to know that much about each other yet, and it see,s like a waste to not use this time to get to know each other..." I tell him, hoping that he thinks I am sound sweet, rather than sounding nervous and pathetic like I feel. "I love that idea, it has been really hard for us to get to know eah other with everthing that has been going on lately, I feel like even the things I do know about you I am starting to question if I remember it right or if I am confusing it with the dozens of people we have met recently..." He says. "Okay,

    I turn to Ansel, not sure what to do about this vampire who has tried to kill me multiple times suddenly claiming to give me his alegence. *Give him an order, say a few orders out loud, but only put your authority into one, maybe that will help us know if he is lying..?* Ansel tells me through the mind link. I nod, then I turn to this vampire king to give my orders "Stand on your feet, spin around, tell me your name, touch your nose" Only a werewolf, vampire, witch, or other person magicly bound to me would be able to tell which one of these orders was the one with power behind it. But, as I speak the vampire does rise to his feet, he is slow to follow my second command, I can see he is thinking it through. The moment I give the order for him to tell me his name he follows the order without hesitation. "I am Samuel Keith Singer, King of the Vampires." He tells us. Before I can say anything else Ri'elle rushes out into the hall, he takes in the scene around him, his fingers are twi

    Many in the pack are against the idea of a pack member adopting a child who is not a werewolf. They do not say so directly to me, but I can feel the stare's as I walk around with Nicky trailing behind me. I think that if I was anyone else besides the queen they would be much more vocal about their disapproval, or maybe it is because they can sense that Nicky is not human, so they figure he will not pose as much of a threat to the pack that a normal human would. Either way, I have decided to address the pack at dinner tonight. I want everyone to know that Nicky saved my life, but I also need them to know that he is MY child, and if anyone tries to hurt him they will have to go through me. Once everyone has taken their seats I call them to attention and introduce Nicky to the pack as my child. Ansel stands to his feet and addresses the pack. "He is OUR child. I know that a lot of you are going to find this odd... adopting a child from outside the pack is... uncommon to say the lea

    I quickly untie the ropes from my legs, but I stay where I am on the ground, knowing my legs will be to shaky to hold me up. My Ansel suddenly apears, jumping over the limo, taking the vampire king down to the ground in one move. Then he takes the kings head off in one bite. The rest of my warriors are here now, fighting vampires on all sides. I watch in horror as one of my warriors move in, to attack Nixie, I jump to my feet and place myself inbetween Nixie and the warriors. The warriors stop dead in their tracks, tilting their wolfish heads at me, tying to understand why I am stopping them from saving me. "No, he is with me... He saved me... He is just a baby..." I pant out. The warriors nod and turn back to the vampires to finish killing the last of them. Nixie trasforms again, this time he is a pure white horse. He walks over to me and nudges his head under my arm, helping me stay on my feet. With Nixie's help I climb onto his back, and I ride on his

    Over the next two days the whole pack pulls together to help the towns around us. We work our way down the street from the pack castle into the town, once we reach the edge of town each house that we pass we check for people in need of help. There was a lot of flooding in this area so we make is a point to check every house for the injured or trapped people. Most people evacuated the area before the storm hit, so many of the houses are empty, but we search them all anyways. This storm was predected to be more on the mild side, so people expected to be gone from their homes for only a few days, because the roads are not passable people can not return. We find some pets in houses alone, when we find a pet in an empty house we leave a note with a phone number and we take the pet back to the castle to be fed and taken care of until their families return. I want to lead the pack as we clear the roads, but the warriors of the pack insist on keeping me surrounde

    It takes the whole pack working together for three days to get the whole castle and grounds cleaned up. Thanks to the warriors and other pack members who boarded them up, most of the windows are fine. But a lot of trees came down, and a few of them landed on some of the buildings on the grounds. The larger brick buildings are largely okay, a couple of them need new roofs put in. It is the smaller wooden buildings that took the most damage, a couple of them will need to be completely demolished, and a few others will need some major renovations to be usable again. I spend my days cutting the fallen trees into logs, so they can be moved out of the way of the rest of the clean up efforts. Once that is done I split the logs into fire wood. My back and shoulders are killing me after a two whole days of splitting and stacking logs. Ansel spends his days loading our dump trucks with pieces of the broken buildings, the warriors dump the debry from the trucks in one big

    I know that I already agreed to help Ri'elle with his spell, and I will, but the thing is... After the regular spell work part of it...Ri'elle says in order to seal the magic I need to kiss Ansel. I have never done a spell that requires love kiss in order to seal the magic, but he says that this spell needs it. I know he would not lie to me, and I will do the magic he needs me to, the thing is that I think this spell maybe too advanced for me. I wish that Ri'elle was well enough to work the spell himself. Ansel walks with me in silence to our room, I am thankful that he lets me walk without talking because I need the time to sort out my feelings about this spell, and also to work up the courage to try this spell since I am not a full witch and my not have enough experience to work this spell.Once we make it to our room I ask Ansel to sit on the bed quietly so I can make myself ready for the spell. I change into a pure white dress, then I cleanse the space by burning sage. I finish s

    "Micheal, thank you for meeting me here. I didn't want to leave her alone while she is still asleep...Something strange happened last night, and it wasn't the first time... There is something wrong with her..." I tell him in a low voice. "Okay, slow down and start from the beginning." Micheal tells me. "Okay, well... You know when we marked each other, tight?' I ask him, he nods and I go on. "Well, then on the first night we stayed in this room she made a big deal out of having sex, like it was the first time. And then she marked me again, and she had the same reactions to the marking as the first time." I tell him, then I pause and take a deep breath, I hate that I have to talk to Micheal about our sex life. "Okay, but that was 2 nights ago, so what happened last night that made you call me here so early in the morning..?" Micheal asks me. "She did the same thing, she initiated sex and then acted like it was the first time again. At

    I follow Micheal as he takes me on a tour of the worst of the wounded. There are only a few people who got hurt badly enough to need to see a doctor, a few warriors where on the stairs when they passed out and as a result they fell down the stairs. One older man fell onto his tool box giving himself a concusion, and a few other fell in similar way. There is a total of 8 broken bone's and 3 concusions. Plus the 5 mothers who went into labor as a result of the stress from passing out the way they did. There was a total of 544 pack memebers effected by the spell, and only 18 people where hurt or effected badly enough to need to seek medical attention right away. The other 526 people have been givin the order to report to the hospital wing within the next 2 days, refusal to do so will result in punishment. I hate the idea of threatening the pack members, but this is how things are done, and everyone knows that I hate doing it, so they know to really listen when I do make t

    I rush to the west tower, I have a bad feeling that something went wrong on Ri'elle's end. I race up the stairs and burst into the room, I find Ri'elle in the center of the room, spiritual energy fills the room, he is covered in his own blood, it looks as though the spirits are trying to rip him apart limb from limb. I know that if I siply rush to him the connection will be broken and his spell will backfire onto him completely. Right now I am thinking that maybe the spirits simply do not like the offering that he used. I skirt around the edges of the room, being carefull not to touch any of the silks. I make my way over to the rabbits in their cages, I reach in and take out one, I slit its throa and coat myself in its blood, saying a quick cleansing ritual as I do. Then I take a few cautious steps towards Ri'elle, then the door bursts open again and I see Ansel with some warriors right behind him. "STOP!" I order. "Leave, go check on the pack, if you touch any
