I Alexi Killed him! The Darkness kept dragging me into the abyss of the quagmire of memories and guilt; Guilty of killing him, he turned to me and kept pointing his finger at me accusingly, groaning in pain, “Alexi, why did you kill me? Why?” Shaking my head, tears pouring down like waterfalls onto the ground and my nails dug into my arms, giving me the pain I deserved. “So sorry, I loved you. I did not know it was you. Please do not be dead, I am so sorry, please forgive me.” Screaming in emotional pain in the darkness. People kept dying, and it was all my fault, I could see the faces of so many pack members around the world that had died, I could see my mother’s faces, I could see Nicolas’s mother’s face, they were all dead and why? Because of me, it was all my fault, the Vampire King wanted me, and I should have just let him have me. Death would be my friend. All the people I knew and loved were in pain or dead because of me. Wisps of black smoke that could not be broken had engulfed my heart. I desperately wanted to escape the memories in the black void of nothingness, but I could not. It trapped me in my self-pity in my dark entrapment.
The New Wolf King Alexander 2nd was busy trying to find out what happened to his sister Alexandria, she had been missing for a week now. Alexander was being worried about his sister and angry at her for going on a mission to kill the King of Vampires not letting Alexander know. One of her warriors that went on the mission was the only warrior that survived as far as he knew. One warrior could hide in the trees out of site when the Vampire King’s men came taking away bodies, one of them the Princess (Alexanders’ Sister) away. Relaying what he saw the warrior stated the princess was moving, but unconscious, the last he saw her, she was still alive. In response, the warrior related that the Vampire King might have known they were coming, and that they had deceived the warriors into believing it was the Vampire King. Why would his sister not come to him and tell him about her mission? Other than training, she had no actual battle experience. Out of anger, fear, and worry, Alexander smashed his hand into the wall, creating a crater.
Ares – I have warriors searching the Vampire Kings outside grounds under the cover of an invisibility cloak with the help of our witches. We have tried to use teleportation to enter the dungeons of the Vampire Kings castle, but the King has put up powerful wards since our last time entering his castle to save Jeremy. Ares reached out to his grandmother, if anyone could be able to get into the Vampire Kings Castle it would be Cordelia his grandmother.
Cordelia - My grandson Ares has asked me to go to my son's castle as life seems to fall apart and upended in the Werewolf Kingdom. My granddaughter appears to be in the hands of King William. Almost every pack in the world has a dead Luna, and almost every pack's Alpha is insane. Cordelia's husband was King before my son, so I'm bringing him with me to help Alexander 2nd and Ares. We need to restore order to the Kingdom. My son needed to be healed, and my granddaughter needed to be found. There is plenty of work to be done, and no time to do it. My husband and I have been packing all morning. Alexi's pack currently does not have an Alpha, Luna, or Beta. In the interim, I will ask my husband to take care of Alexi's pack. With all the deaths and heartache that our wolves are experiencing right now, my heart breaks. Having so much animosity among species, how did we get to where we are today? She may have thought she had the element of surprise, but I am worried about the pups Alexi carries, I am not sure why she led her own mission with such a small group of warriors? The child has always been so headstrong.
Selene - I enter the nightmare in which Alexi is living; she needs to return to reality. She is carrying twin alpha pups and the magical wards she placed on the pups to keep them safe from harm will not last much longer, as Alexi’s blood is p’s bane.
In her imagination, I see Alexi crouched in a ball, rocking back and forth. She sees and talks to invisible characters that her mind has conjured up. Alexi apologizes over and over for the deaths of the imaginary people. I have never seen Alexi this depressed before. I thought this girl didn't even understand the word depression, and Alexi always bounced right back. She never doubted her strength and potential for greatness. She was a shell of the Alexi I know.
"Alexi, you need to wake up from this!" I lifted her chin as I stood before her, crouching down in front of her.Then I say ferociously to Alexi, "Remember the twins?"?? Do you know you are pregnant? If you stay like this, they may die. They need their mother back, and they want to live. Would you like that ask Alexi, hoping she will wake up from this hell she had created for herself. Alexi looks up and stares into the void with blank expressions not seeing me or anything else. I slap Alexi, “WAKEUP!” I yell at”” I yell at her. She turns to me her eyes becoming less blank and acknowledging that I am there with her. “Alexi, it is I your aunt the Moon Goddess. I need you to WAKEUP! Your pups need you; your pack needs you; you need to quit having this self-pity and WAKEUP!” Alexi turned her face to look at me and the tears started streaming down her cheeks, drenching them in her sorrow.
Alexi – I was in my little hell with my family and pack members yelling at me for their murders. It brought me out of the hell that I deserved for so many reasons to be in. It was Aunt Selene, the Moon Goddess she had just slapped me, and she was yelling at me. Why doesn’t she just let me rot in here? Then I remember her mentioning my pups, I forgot about my pups, how could I forget about my pups?
Selene- “Good, I have got your attention, Alexi. You have been in this darkness for over a week. The magical ward you put on the pups will not last much longer. Then they will die from your blood, the Kings men shot you with an arrow coated heavily with wolfsbane. I am going to clean your blood, the other Gods will not be so happy with me, as I am supposed to not interfere, but you are my blood relative, and King William has hurt you. I will not sit and see you destroy yourself and the pups.”
Alexi – “I am a failure Auntie Selene. I am not strong, and I didn’t kill William. If I had turned myself in to King William and let him have me, then maybe all these deaths would not have occurred. In my youth, I always won, but now I am losing this battle. I am a failure and I have let everyone down.””
Selene – “B.S. It was only to prevent you from fulfilling the prophecy and use your magic for his own vengeful ambitions that King William wanted to keep you from fulfilling the prophecy. Since wolves murdered his twin sister, William has been killing wolves in vengeance. His goal is to eliminate all wolf species, so my dear, you have nothing to do with the deaths. My next step is to clean your blood.”
Alexi - Selene closes her eyes and speaks softly while her hands scan my body, emitting a warm blue light. My body temperature is rising, as if it has covered me in a fluffy blanket after a snowstorm that froze my bones.
Selene looks at Alexi, “You are healed now. Alexi, I'm going to wake you up. You were sleeping on a cot in the King's dungeon when I found you, now you must figure out a way out on your own. Wake up now!”
Selene disappears into thin air, and I see flickers of light in a damp, smelly environment. They cuffed my hands to the bed so that I won't run away. On a hot day in the desert, I smell like an outhouse. As I look around, I see sconces on the wall with old-fashioned lights. It is dimly lit to create the hopeless atmosphere a dungeon creates, creating feelings and desires that death will kiss you and take you away from here, like the stolen kiss of a lover.
I hear some noise and I squint my eyes looking through the darkness and I see an old friend, okay she is not a friend at all. It is Samantha carrying a silver knife as her eyes look cold and dangerous. I could tell she had no love for me, and it is clear what her intent is, and that is to end my life.
Cordelia – I grabbed my husband and teleported us to the Redwood Pack grounds. Once we are at the pack, I walk over to the packhouse and find a very flustered gamma trying to run all affairs. I walk up to the Gamma and explain that I am Alexi’s grandmother former queen to the throne and my husband was a former King to the throne. I explained that my husband Edward would run the pack until there was an Alpha and a Luna to take back the reigns. I had him call my grandson Alexander 2nd to confirm our identities. Once the gamma had confirmed our identities, he led my husband and me to the Alpha's office. I could see it relieved him to have us show up, the gamma truly looked overwhelmed. Once we had arrived at the office, Edward sat behind the desk and the Gamma started catching Edward up on the many things that needed to be taken care of around the pack. I walked over to the side that the Gamma was not standing and lifted my husbands chin towards me, I still c
Cordelia – I grab my son and my grandsons. With magic, I kill the magical wards set around King William Kingdom. There is not any magic King William's witches could do that I can’t break. Opening a portal for my son, grandsons, and me to walk through to where my dear sweet granddaughter Alexi is. Smiling with a tear in my eye, I can see Alexandria through the portal. Cautiously, I walk through the portal with my son and grandsons trailing behind me. Alexi looks up in shock. She looks worn out and pale, Alexandria’s face was stained with the remnants of tear marks. They made the bars to the cell of pure steel dipped in wolfsbane, Alexandria’s hand cuffs had caused red burns on her wrists. Seeing this Cordelia felt so bad for Alexandria. blowing open the door, breaking open the handcuffs Alexandria was wearing, making the handcuffs shatter and blow onto the cement floor. Cordelia ran in and hugged her granddaughter lightly as not to cause her any pain. Alexandria’s brother came over a
Nicolas – The next morning, I was watching Alexi while she slept, color was returning to her face, and she cried twice in her sleep, but I would hold her closer, and she would stop crying. I played with strands of Alexi’s hair, realizing how lucky I was to have her. The nurse during the night unplugged the feeding tubes. Mind-linking my gamma I asked him to pick up breakfast for Alexi and me, as hospital food always tasted like cardboard. I was letting Alexi’s grandfather and grandmother run the pack until Alexi was feeling better. I laughed when my gamma informed me he felt uncomfortable going into the Alpha office as Alexi’s grandmother and grandfather were constantly making out; he stated he missed us and to please hurry up on getting better. It thrilled the Gamma to leave the Packhouse and Alexi’s grandparents to bring up breakfast. The Gamma came in with our food and asked how old people like Alexi’s parents had so much energy for the sexual extracurricular activities? I laughe
Alexi - We took advantage that my grandparents were taking over the pack temporarily. With the past month that Nicholas and I have had we needed a break. Our stress reliever is sex, plain and simple, we are wolves after all and we have a high sexual need otherwise we are not easy to get along with. After two days of nonstop sex, we were ready to take back over our pack. Okay maybe we did stop to eat, sleep, and use the facilities.Alexi – my brother Ares needed me to go to the castle for strategic training. Ares also wants me to train with the royal warriors. My brothers wanted to make certain that I indeed could take care of myself. This last episode of getting kidnapped by King Williams scared my brothers. After showering with my mate, I explained how my brothers wanted me to visit the castle to train with the Royal guard, I was going to teleport to Castle and back. Nicolas kissed me and headed to the pack house to relieve my grandparents.Nicolas-
Nicolas- A couple of hours later Nicolas got a call from the pack hospital stating miraculously his dad is back to normal. Nicolas smiled to himself; Cordelia is truly amazing. Now for prioritizing, the sofa must go to sofa Heaven, it had been defiled. Nicolas mind linked some of his pack members that worked in the warehouse asking them to come and get this sofa out of his office right away, he also wanted a replacement sofa pronto as well. When Alexi came home that night, she was mentally exhausted, as her brothers were relentless, she needed to learn strategy and combat fighting that is used on the field of war. They were training her how to be patient and notice her surroundings before an attack. She needed to act like the predator her wolf is and be stealthy, patient, and slow until the time is right and then catch your prey unaware. What was humorous today being, that when we were pretend fighting because of my being pregnant, we cannot go into real punc
Nicolas – “I am going to let the Delta out tomorrow if that is okay by you Alpha? I want men to follow him, videotaping any suspicious behavior as my gut tells me he is a traitor. Alpha, what are your thoughts?” Alpha Woods – I looked at my son in pride and realized maybe it was time for me to step down. I have seen all the changes he has made to technology and how he took over and ran the pack like he was born to it and, quite frankly, he was born to run the pack. I could get Cordelia to make a bunch of her potions to help other Alphas become viable again. That would take up my time giving me a chance to heal after losing my mate. “What do I think?” I said as I stood up, “I think you need to get Cordelia here so I can talk to her, you are going to take over as Alpha and your mate as Luna. You two have done an amazing job while I was not myself. I will be travelling the world with the medication that Cordelia must heal a lot of crazy Alpha wolves. That is what I think.” I gave my son
Alexi – upon arriving home, silly Nicolas carries me into the kitchen, which is cute and annoying that he is so precautious about my being pregnant. I am not breakable, an hour ago I was kicking butt in training. I was trying to imagine myself in his shoes, however all that brought about was a vision of him scowling with a huge belly. Nicolas was looking at me like I had gone crazy. Once he sat me on the chair in the kitchen, I was able to giggle up verbally to Nicolas, that I was envisioning him pregnant, and he did not look happy. Nicolas laughed, “I do not envy you at all being able to bear pups. My help is by carrying you so that I carry the baby weight with you.” My heart swelled at his explanation.My grandmother Cordelia was talking with Nicolas's father who seemed to be planning a long trip. When my grandmother saw me coming, she got up, placed her hands on my belly and smiled. They'll make a lot of mischief. She laughed as I told her about how they
Alexi and Nicolas were getting ready for the ceremony, Nicolas putting on some dark slacks and a white shirt. Alexi putting on the new dress that her and Nicolas just purchased. Alexi sits at the mirror putting curls into her hair and lifting half of her hair up into an updo, so that her neck was longer and emphasized her neckline and bosoms, yet still being sophisticated and attractive. She put on some white dressy sandals and turned to look at Nicolas. He walked up next to her and looking at him and her in the full-length mirror, he stated, “We are on beautiful looking couple, aren’t we?” Alexi laughed and turned back around, “So how do I look?” Nicolas whispers in her ear, “You are lucky I don’t rip that off of you right now!” Alexi pretends to be unbuttoning his shirt sexily “You look hot too Mr. Alpha!” Nicolas puts his arms around her waist and guides her to their car. Nicolas also had the Moon Goddess bring their son
