Chapter: Chapter 128:Alley POV: I heard gasps around the room and I knew this would be the reaction, "Yes, some of you knew Raleigh the precious great white witch, but Alley has proven she will hold her responsibilities with ease and pride, she fought bravely against Bosch and won, and it is my honor to introduce the two that will lead this council, Alpha Quincy my shield, Luna Alley, my Great White Witch of the Black Wood Pack!" Atheas voice boomed with pride and approval, the room exploded with cheers as we walked down the stairs and the room came in to view I could see a lot of them had shifted and were howling I could see my parents and my brothers with their mates crying and clapping, I held my head a little higher as pride swelled within me more than it already has. Packs that didn't know us looked to us with happiness, I held on tighter to Stephens arm. Not that I was afraid of anyone but I didn't want to trip on my own two feet and fall face first, that would be incredibly humiliating. As we reac

Chapter: Chapter 127:Alley POV: Today is the day we are officially announced as the counsel and honestly I am thrilled. We broke the news to everyone yesterday of my pregnancy and I was happy to learn that Ambrosia is also pregnant! She is farther along than I am but they kept it a secret until we were all together. I couldn't shake the sickness so Pythia had a calming tea made for me. She said it helped her through her pregnancy with Apollo. We are all curious to see if their kids will have traits of wolf and vampire but in time we will figure it out. As I finished dressing I took a long look at myself, with each year that passes my hair continues to grow more white. Not that I mind but in truth it is starting to look like Atheas hair. I often wondered what Raleigh looked like, I bet she was beautiful. One day I will get to meet her, a soft knock on the door before it opens to the most handsome man I have ever laid my eyes on. "You look beautiful and glowing princess." Stephen said, leaning against the

Chapter: Chapter 126:Alley POV: Oh I am going to kill Stephen. Okay well it takes two but still! Stephen started rubbing my back and I growled out. "Whoa easy there Alley what's wrong?" Stephen said, jerking his hand away. I stood up and turned to him. "Rose told me that I am pregnant." I muttered. A huge grin started spreading across his face. "Is she sure? We can get a test. Or I can call Julie. This is good news!" Stephen said, visibly excited. I narrowed my eyes and placed my hands on my hips. "You're not excited?" Stephen asked. "Well the last time it was twins, even though I had an easy pregnancy my back hurt like hell and I looked like a bloated whale!" I yelled. I could tell Stephen was trying his hardest not to laugh at me and I felt overly emotional right now. "It's going to be okay princess I promise. I've called Julie to meet us here and I am having Alex and Brandon pick up the twins." Stephen said. I wanted to cry. I wanted to have a total meltdown. I felt the sting in my eyes and I couldn't

Chapter: Chapter 125:Alley POV: It's been a very busy year. After we had the twins everything else happened at once, the other women had their babies a few days after I did. We have spent so much time together while our mates moved forward with the castle for the counsel and we have decided that we were all going to move in it and keep our Betas and Gammas at the pack houses, we wanted all of our kids to be close with each other because something deep within me told me that when it is time they will resume to counsel. Ambrosia and Jackson built a new castle for themselves a little closer while leaving the previous one to those who needed a home. Pythia and Tye have done the same although their home isn't as large but still, they built something of their own to have. We decided that it was best that we stay closer together, we were suppose to have the ceremony for us but with all of us having the babies Athea decided to hold off and let us finish what we needed to, tomorrow is the celebration and l

Chapter: Chapter 124:Alley POV: Oh my goddess it feels like she is literally trying to break me apart! "You're at a five, you will need to come with me to the hospital." Julie said, removing her hand. "How? I've only felt it a few times." I asked. I'm already halfway there and I've barely felt the pain. "Rose might be blocking some of that pain. Have you felt her?" Stephen asked as he helped me sit up. "Actually I haven't felt her since the pain started." I replied. "Rose? Are you holding the pain back?" I asked. "Yes, not much of it though." Rose replied as she sunk back into my mind. "She said she has but she hasn't held much of it back." I said looking at Julie. "Go get her bag ready and be back down here in five minutes." Julie said look at Stephen who quickly got to his feet and ran upstairs. Sammie helped me stand to my feet and I could already feel the soreness. Another sharp pain hit me and this time it felt like a steel cage was wrapped around my stomach. I gasped, grabbing onto Sammies arm. "Ow

Chapter: Chapter 123:Alley POV: I swear to the goddess I am going to pop any down now. I only have a few more days and I feel as big as a whale, my feet look like I am wearing puffer fish as slippers according to Alex and Brandon but in reality my feet are just swollen, not that I can see because I can't see over the ginormous belly that has sprung out. I literally can't do anything on my own, hell I can't even balance properly because I waddle everywhere. "Good morning princess." Stephen says as he walks out of the bathroom looking more than good. "Don't look at me like that, Julie said no sex until after and I'm not getting in trouble." Stephen stated narrowing his eyes at me. I may have gotten him in trouble a few times but what can I say? My hormones are out of control. "I'm not even sorry, can you help me please?" I asked to take the covers off of me. I want to shower and try to get my day started. Stephen walked over and grabbed my arms sitting me up, he placed one hand at my lower back while st

Chapter: Chapter 58: Leia POV: As we stood still waiting for alpha Scott to really begin I could still see the confusion on some of their faces. This was something that was kept a secret for the most part and now they are all about to find out what really happened. "As we wait for them to be brought out I would like to explain why the Blackwood pack along with the covens are doing here." He said finally speaking. "Leia was once part of this pack until she was not only captured by Bosch but was under what we know as the forbidden magic. To better explain I would like to invite Pythia up." Scott nodded towards her. I could feel my heart racing, there were details that I did not want anyone to know and I knew that Pythia wouldn't bring them up. "Hello everyone, when it comes to the forbidden magic there is a difference, you see we are dark witches are able to use dark magic on a lot of things but the forbidden magic is by far the worst. It has the potential to morph us into different creatures essentiall

Chapter: Chapter 57: Leia POV: I woke up this morning not really sure how I was feeling about what today's events would unfold. We were all curious about how they would react to it. While I washed my hair my mind drifted back to the conversation that took place when we all were sitting around the porch.. **FLASHBACK** I sat on the swing while Ambrosia, Brandon and Jackson followed suit. "So how are you really feeling?" Ambrosia asked. I sat back against the swing and pulled my legs up. "Honestly, I have no idea. I thought maybe I would feel a little better being the one that decides what is going to happen but then I started thinking about how they are going to react, will they try to play on our tempers? Or would they accept it and not cause anymore problems." I replied, shrugging my shoulders. I was leaning more towards them playing on our tempers. "None of us know what is going to happen, I mean when we all grew up we didn't see this side of them." Jackson said and I nodded my head. The

Chapter: Chapter 56: Leia POV: Last night's events were probably the best we have had, we sat around the coffee table watching movies, playing a card game and having a few drinks. For once the stress of everything wasn't weighing on our shoulders. The bones had been sent to Collins territory for further examination but this morning they had called us over to Alley and Stephens to hear the result. "Are you ready?" Brandon asked, standing in the doorway. "Do you really think it's him?" I asked. "I don't know honestly, I think we will be disappointed either way this goes, you'll never have your justice or we found someone else and he is still on the loose." Brandon replied. Even if he did die somehow that is justice within itself and something I will just have to be okay with at some point. "As long as he is out of our lives and can't hurt anyone else then I can make peace with it you know." I said. "I know you will, I guess I just wanted you to have the justice that you deserved." Brandon replied. I cou

Chapter: Chapter 55: Brandon POV: I was beginning to get really frustrated. We had been out here for weeks looking for him and still haven't found anything of his at all. Alley has been popping in and out to bring us food and home to spend what time we can with our mates and for those that have children so no one feels like they have to miss out on anything. We were all growing more and more frustrated each day. One day the scent is hot the next day it's like it doesn't exist at all which sends us in different directions. "What are you thinking about over there?" Alex asked, pulling me out of my thoughts. "I didn't think this would take so damn long, why is his scent all over the place the way that it is, you know. It just doesn't make any sense." I replied, shaking my head. "Well, think about it, when we move around a lot our scent travels to different areas so maybe that is what he did to try to throw us off or something." Alex said and I shook my head. "No, there is something more to it that we are

Chapter: Chapter 54: Leia POV: When Brandon left the room Pythia came over to lay on the bed with me. "So tell me how you are really feeling." Pythia said, grabbing a piece of fruit. "I just feel tired and sore mainly." I replied, shrugging my shoulders. "I never really recovered from training with Ambrosia before the rest happened so I think it's really starting to weigh on me." I added and she smiled. "How is your training with her going? Does anyone else know about it?" Pythia asked. "It's been going good. She hasn't taken it easy on me at all, which I like, but I also taunt her when I feel like she is holding back and she scolds me when I am. She also likes to keep me on my toes, you know last time she left me a note." I laughed and I heard Pythia giggle. "She is always like that. She is one tough lady not many would dare to train with." Pythia replied. "I can see why, she is a little intense but in a good way. No one else knows though, I don't want anyone thinking I am getting some sort of specia

Chapter: Chapter 53: Brandon POV: I didn't know how long I had been asleep but when I opened my eyes Leia was still sleeping. I reached over and grabbed my phone off the night stand to see it hasn't even been an hour. I sighed and looked back down at her, I gently picked up her arms and un-did one of the bandages and noticed that it stopped bleeding and looked like it was starting to heal up slowly. I heard a knock on the door and looked up to see that Pythia had stuck her head through. "Is she still sleeping?" Pythia whispered and I nodded my head. She pushed the door open a little further and walked in with some snacks. "I didn't think you would want to leave her so I brought you some food and drinks." Pythia said with a smile. "Thank you, you didn't have to." I whispered. "Hush, you need to eat and I'm sure she will be waking soon and she will be hungry." Pythia said, giving me a stern look and I had to keep myself from laughing. I knew she wasn't one to tango with but there were different sides to

Chapter: Chapter 113: Pythia POV: The last few months have been the most relaxing I have ever had. I completely re-decorated our house with the help of Lucinda. We have taken so many photos and family photos and I wanted to start a complete family wall that could be added on to as the years go by. I was finishing up the final touches in the new nursery even though I knew they probably wouldn't be sleeping alone in here. We even placed a big bean bag thing for Delilah to sleep on. I wanted to go over and check on Beth, she had Spencer a few months ago and we all have been visiting everyday so she didn't have to worry about coming to us. "Delilah is waiting outside." Lucinda said from the door. I laid my hands across my now large belly and turned around. Delilah and I were going to merge today so she could help me through the delivery. Apollo hurt really badly. I couldn't imagine what it is like to have twins but I am about to find out. Alley has been giving me tips and stuff on how to manage two

Chapter: Chapter 112: Pythia POV: The party was starting to calm down and I was pleasantly surprised at how well the humans mixed in with everyone else. Others were letting their wolves out to show that there is nothing to be afraid of. The mayors and council members were very happy to see that we can all live among each other easily without and issues and we have extended our protection to them. We can't always promise that some little disgruntled asshole won't try anything but they felt better knowing they were all protected by us. "I think it's just about time for us to go." Tye whispered in my ear. "Where are we going?" I asked. "You'll find out when we get there. Apollo is going to stay with Ambrosia and Jackson for a few days and then they will bring him to us so we can go somewhere else for a small family vacation." Tye said with a smile. "I'm very curious as to what you have planned up." I giggled. "You two are all set to go." Lucinda said walking up to us. "Are you going to be alright here wit

Chapter: Chapter 111: Pythia POV: I woke up feeling a lot better than I have been the last few days. Apollo was curled up next to me while Delilah was laying at the end of the bed. I quietly climbed out of the bed and walked into the bathroom. I looked in the mirror to see my hair still had the shine from it getting done last night. I wrapped it up and put a shower cap on before I turned on the hot water. I turned back to the sink while the water was heating up to brush my teeth, the day was finally here and I couldn't be more excited. When I was done brushing my teeth I quickly stepped in the shower grabbing my loofah and lathering it with soap. I wonder how the guys night went. I didn't need anyone to tell me that Tye had been trying to secretly check in on me because every time Alleys eyes glazed over I knew who it was. I rinsed off and stepped out of the shower and towel dried myself and slipped on my robe and slippers. I took my shower cap off and let my hair fall down, I picked up my brush a

Chapter: Chapter 110: Pythia POV: I was helping Tye get an overnight bag packed and ready to go. Tonight was the night we had to spend apart, I wasn't really sure what the guys had planned but I know us girls had a full night of pampering ahead of us. "Are you sure I have to leave?" Tye pouted. "Yes I am sure, and I'm pretty sure the twins and Alcide will drag you out of here." I replied. "Alcide has been overly excited about this." Tye said. "Yes, he has only because he hasn't been around much lately and he is family. He's never had that before." I replied easily. After the fight had happened Alcide and his pack went back to their lands to get some normalcy back into their lives. Olivia and a few others went with him to resettle into a new life they wanted to make for themselves. When I called him about our wedding he was more than happy to visit the days leading up to it. We extended invitations to all of the packs and even the close human towns. Our presence has been made and they have been over

Chapter: Chapter 109: Pythia POV: Today was the day we decided to venture out and go to the human mall. We have made good progress with the humans and have allowed them to come and visit our lands. We started building different schools so that all our children could mingle with each other and so far there hasn't been any problems. Beth is close to having little Spencer but she wanted to come anyway. "Are we all ready?" I asked, looking around. We had the kids tucked in their strollers and we were all dressed in comfortable clothes. "I know I am, we have an entire day of planning to do." Ambrosia said happily. "Are you sure it's safe for us to teleport?" I asked, looking at Lucinda. "I promise it is. Now everyone, grab onto each other." Lucinda said with a smile. I had one hand on the stroller and the other hand on Delilah. I was glad she decided to come. She was worried that her size would scare some of the humans but in truth they will have to get used to her if they want to come around. Some of

Chapter: Chapter 108: Pythia POV: I could hear the music playing before we even stepped outside, it was like a soft Jazz tempo, when we walked outside everyone stopped and looked at us before they all smiled and bowed their heads. Part of me felt a little shy at first and I'm not really sure why. They did an amazing job, roots had been pulled to cover all the tables, vines and flowers swirled their way around the roots giving it a gentle look. I looked over to the open field to see a large portion had been created by more roots that built the area to dance around it. Lights hung off of them, vines and colorful flowers were intertwined with them. "Lucinda, this is absolutely stunning." I said hugging her. "I thought it would be something different than what you are all used to. I even brought in human chefs to help cook dinner for everyone." Lucinda replied. "It's a nice touch, they can see how we are." Tye said, hugging her. "I'm glad Alley and Stephen approved of it. They seem to be doing well w
