Haley “Don’t worry Haley, the pups are fine and our wound is healed. However, Avery and Spartan are going to be furious.” “I know Hazel. But, she doesn’t have a wolf to heal her. I had to.” I hold Akila close to me as our wolves rip into Red Moon. I notice the smell of Red Creek wolves as well, but I don’t relax until I smell the familiar scent of strawberries and honey. The once green grass is stained with red. Axel rubs up against me and Akila, licking Akila’s face. I know he is hoping she’ll wake up, but she doesn’t budge. Axel whimpers as Spartan joins my side. I hug onto Spartan’s head. “Took you long enough,” I try to tease to lighten the mood but my sobs betray me. “I truly was scared they were going to succeed and take us away from you.” Spartan licks my face and then shifts. “Never love. I’m sorry I took so long. Your scent had disappeared.” “That woman over there was a witch. I think she masked our scent.” He looks at the dead witch on the ground. Her neck has been t

Haley When we arrive at the orphanage the kids squeal in excitement. They always bring a smile to my face. The group has gotten smaller and smaller as we have found homes for more and more kids when we ask our allies if they have any permanent placements. All kids so far have agreed to leave to be with a family that has accepted them. I am happy and sad at the same time. Happy they’ve found a home, sad I don’t get to see them anymore. There are five kids left and each should be in a home within the next two weeks. “How are you all doing today?”They all begin talking over each other and it makes me laugh.“Alright kids, one at a time,” laughs Akila.“Can you do some more magic Akila,” asks one kid.“Yeah please,” says another.“Alright, alright. Who would like to try a dragon fruit?”“What

 Akila “Luna I need you to calm down and push. We need to get these twins out now.”Haley is hyperventilating as we hear the fighting get closer. Dr. Sully is worried he’s going to have to perform an emergency c-section if Haley doesn’t start pushing. Nick, Ray and Harrison have all shifted and are standing guard in the hallway. I worry they are bring dark witches with them, but I put a protective shield up. This will block anyone from entering this room unless I let them. “Akila, what is going on over there,” asks Avery through the mind link. I can feel Mason listening too.“We can hear fighting outside the hospital. Dr. Sully is prepping for a c-section.”“A c-section? Why?”“She’s panicking Avery. She’s not pushing. Avery can you mind link her?”“I’ve been trying. She&rs

Haley When I wake up I sit up in a panic. I feel the familiar sparks traveling up my arm and see Avery is a sleeping with his head on the bed while holding my hand. I look around the hospital room searching for my babies. I pull my hand out of Avery’s and try to get out of bed. I wince as pain from my stomach spreads throughout my body from my movements. “Easy Haley. You almost died.” “Avery, where are the twins?” I hear a knock on the door and Dr. Sully walks in. “Luna, it’s good to finally see you awake. We were worried about you.” “Where are my children!” I see Akila and Mason behind Dr. Sully, each with one of my kids. I cry at the sight of them and reach my arms out for both of them. I hold them close and kiss each of them. I let out a small laugh between my sobs and Avery kisses my forehead. “Can I feed them?” “We had to give them formula Haley,” says Akila knowing Haley really wanted to breast feed them and we can all see the disappointment in her eyes. “I’m sorry Hal

Mason I chase after Akila and find her curled up on our bed, crying.“Akila what did you see.”“I can’t tell anyone. If Haley or Avery learn of what I saw, it could change the fate of Alina. Haley has to decide what to do on her own without the push from anyone.”“Can you tell me?”“No, you will tell Avery. He will push and push until he uses his Alpha command on you. He can’t use it on me, I am a white witch.”“Okay, if they did find out what you saw, whatever this decision Haley has to make, what happens to Alina?”“She dies. Alina will die.” Alpha Avery I watch Mason chase after Akila. I would not want her powers. To see the future is a burden, not a blessing. Especially when there could be multiple outcomes depending on whatever a person decides. I wonder if whatever Akila saw has to do with m
