Fivers POV
I sit in my office staring at the computer. I slowly rock my chair side to side. Enya’s search history was rather interesting..she sure is interested in this firebird. I rub my finger over my lips over and over. Just staring at it. And Theo…why is she so interested in him? It better not have to do with that vampire boy. I swear I warned her. I told her not to mess around with him!
I take in a deep breath before seeing my mate walk in. I give her a short nod. “Dear..what are you doing? You’ve been Cooped up all day..” I closed my eyes for a moment when she slid her arms around my shoulders. “Enya’s search history? What’s this about?”
“She’s starting to question things..” I begin. “Searching up Theo and this stupid bird.” My mate tilted her head. “Did you surpass it?”
“I tried. She found a way around it.” I gestured to the screen. “Look. She searched up numerous ways of the stupid phrase. And about Theo.”
“The phrase..? What do you know of it?” She tilted her head, lifting my chin in the process. I swat her hand away gently. “Nothing much. Only a few things here and there. But that’s not what matters. What matters is that our children are starting to ask questions. Questions that we don’t have the right to tell them..”
She took in a soft sigh before moving to position herself between my shoulder blades. I clenched my jaw softly when she began to massage my shoulders. “What questions my love..do you know specifically what they're asking..”
“If I knew that, I wouldn’t be here now would I..!” I state calmly. She paused for a moment. She then scoffed softly. “Sorry. What about Lucy? Hm? You bought him to keep an eye on our kids. Did you bother to ask him?” I tense for a moment. Right.
Lucy..I forgot about him. “Of course you didn’t ask him..” she threw her hands up and began to stroll away. “W-wait..!” I quickly follow her.
“Why bother? You obviously have no clue how to run this shit. You want answers, get them yourself.” I smirk softly. I close the door behind us where she turned to face me as I lock it. I turn and hand her the key where she gave me a soft smile and slid it deep into her bra. “Thank you my love.”
I look her over for a moment, taking her in. I than trail a finger down her jaw where I don’t hesitate to grip her chin tightly. She didn’t flinch. She didn’t make a sound. She just held my gaze. I lean in before pausing at her lips. “Watch you're tone when you're talking to me. I’m the only thing keeping you safe from Theo.” Her eyes darkened and I give her a soft smile. “Shall we, my love..” she shoved me off and against the wall. I smirk, licking my lips. “Keep your hands to yourself and I’ll keep you safe from mine.” She spun away, fixing her skirt which I happily gave a long observation.
She sure is one fiery lady. I fix my suit jacket with a quick jerk before following her. As soon as we made it through the doors I snapped my fingers, calling four of my men to our side.
We head to Lucy’s Post where we all slow down to see him passed out on the floor. I grit my teeth and balled my fists so hard I could hear them pop. “Lucy!” I demand. No reply. My mate scoffed and crossed her arms. I storm over where I grab him by his shirt. “Lucy!” I demand. My mate stormed over, yanking the glasses off his face. “You’ve got to be kidding me.” She looked towards my men. One of them walked over and took my place. I flex my fingers stepping back. I than cross my arms as she suckered punched, him in the gut. Lucy snapped awake, coughing and shaking. “B-Beta Fiver..! W-what happened!”
“That’s what we came to ask you..” I lean over, placing my hands on my knees. “Lucy..do I pay you..to sleep on the job!”
The girl holding him snatched him by the hair and yanked it back. “N-no’ sir Beta! You g-got it all wrong!”
“Oh really. Then enlighten us..” my mate sneered. “It was e-Enya and Marca..! They ran off! I tried to stop them! I did!” He begged, scrambling to his knees to beg. I wrinkle my nose and look away.
For fucks sake these children don’t listen! When I say you're grounded I mean it!
The girl quickly kicked him down where he jerked his head up. “Wait! There’s more!” I pause. I wave my hand. “Hurry it up.”
“T-that vampire..t-the one who broke in..” he gasped. I felt my mate's eyes snap my way. I slowly take in a deep breath while rolling my shoulders. “What about him..”
“He was here! He took them! T-they-“ I had him by the throat in mere seconds. “What.” He quickly grasped my wrist before pointing. “That way! T-they went that way!”
“Find them! Now!” My mate barked, sending my men running. “I want that vampire found-“
“No!” I quickly say. They all stop. “I want him dead.” My mate flinched. “Y-you can’t be serious!”
“Oh I am..” I hissed. “They cannot be together. Period. We need to split them up..” I say. “Fiver-“
“I said dead. Got it?” I quickly look away. My eyes darted this way and that.
We cannot have this happen. Theo will kill us. We need that..that boy as far away from the twins as possible. They cannot remember! “Kill him. By all means necessary..and bring me his head so we can keep it that way!” They hesitate and I snap my teeth. “Do it!” They quickly rush off. “Did you hear me? Dead!” I shout.
“What do we do with him..?” I look at my mate. She sighed and popped a hip. “He’s useless. Couldn’t even keep our children here.”167Please respect copyright.PENANAKFBJTTs0e4
“No..! I-I’ll do better! I promise! I promise!” He sobbed. I smirk at his begging. I crouch down, sighing. “You know Lucy. I gave you my all. I let you harass my daughter just to keep you here..but now.” I shake my head. “You let my kids. My last two. Kids. Run away with a vampire..” I snatch his throat, making him whimper and tear up. I turn his head this way and that. “If that bitch touches my daughter I will take more than you're eyes.” He instantly paled.
“W-what..?” I stand up and walk away. “Beta..! Beta wait!” I take my mate's hand as I walk. She kissed the back of my hand as Lucy let out a blood curdling scream.
Enya’s POV
We waited outside the school. “Any ideas..?” I look around. “Yes” Marca pulled out his phone. We waited silently as he began typing away. A moment later, we waited. I lean up against a random car. “So..” Marca begins. “Anwyll thinks we’re vampires..”
“No, I did not say that..” he quickly raised a finger. “I just think there’s more going on than what we’re all led to believe..” he nods. “And why do you think that? Hm? Because we’re supposedly in some kind of vampire book? Because we’re wearing vampire uniforms?”
“Marca..” I sigh. “Think about it. Why am I suddenly getting these memories about being in that place? Why haven’t we ever met another werewolf with powers like ours - no, better yet. Powers at all. And on top of that, with everything going on..don’t you think it’s even the slightest bit weird? Don’t you want to know more..?”
“Of course I do! B-but what you're asking..what you're suggesting..” he paused and shook his head sadly. “Enya our parents wouldn’t lie.” I bite the inside of my lip. As much as I wanted to believe that I knew he was wrong.
Anwyll was right. Something’s going on. There’s something our parents aren’t telling us, and I knew it. I didn’t need Anwyll to know that. I’ve been knowing that. I’ve been thinking about it.
Knowing it. They’ve been acting extremely weird since the death of orris. Since the disappearance of our Omega. And now the spying? I shake my head. “No. Your wrong Marca..they would. And I have a feeling that there capable of lying about so much. Things we’ve been so blind of..” Marca shook his head while eyeing me with such disgust. “This is his doing? Isn’t it!” He snarled, shooting his eyes up to Anwyll who held his stand.
He took a step forward. “You brainwashed my sister?!”
“What no!” We both shout. “Marca, listen! I’ve been thinking about it too, okay? Not just him. If anything he-“
“Marca..” Marca spun around and I notice him tense. I peer over his shoulder and my heart jumped for joy. “Joey!” I gasp running over and jumping in his arms. “Enya! Marca! Oh my god!” He shrieked, wrapping his arms tightly around me.
“What the hell guys! It’s been forever! Where have you guys been!” He beamed. I smile and ruffle his hair playfully. He groaned and swatted my hand away as I giggled and moved on to stephenie and Marie.
All three of us share a soft groan of relief as we embrace in a tight hug. “God I missed you..! Where have you been? You hardly text or even call..! We thought you guys got hauled off to jail! Marie was so close to planning a riot or some shit!” I giggle softly and hook my arms with theirs.
“Just..Under some house arrest, and strict supervision that’s all..that, and we’ve been pretty busy trying to get this stuff cleared over..” I nod only to have stephenie sigh and hug me again. “Well..we’re just happy to see you..”
“I’ll say..” Marie whispered through a giggle. She nods and we look over to see joe and Marca acting all gushy and awkward. I roll my eyes and innocently slide over where I than jump on Joes back, making him stumble and bump into Marca who, thankfully to my plan. Hugged to catch him. “Enya..!” Marca hissed, sliding his arms off a little.
I walk back over to Marie and Steph whistling as I do. “What? I, was just giving him a quick back hug..” I grin. Marca smiled softly and the two quickly hugged it out. About damn time. I tease. Marca glanced my way before smiling bigger and burying his face in his shoulder where he clung to him, gripping his shoulder softly.
My smile faded a little longer he held him..and I knew why..to others he looked happy. And he was! But I knew that he was in pain. Because if this trial goes wrong..and I mean terribly wrong. Marca could lose everything..
Wolf packs don’t tolerate outsiders or failures..if Marca loses his position he could be deemed one..he could be kicked out. I slowly rub my hands together, pinching and squeezing my fingers as I do. He could be…
I felt my throat close off slightly. Threatening my eyes with tears. He could be killed..he’s not safe outside the pack. He could be wiped from existence, and anyone who goes looking could soon follow.
Him seeing joe..no matter how much he tries to hide how he feels..it means a lot. I know it does. Because for all we knew this could be the last time..it could be the last time he’s able to make contact with him..hell it could be the last time he sees Josiah alive.
“Enya, you okay?” I glance over to Anwyll. I glance at him. I hope he’s wrong. I hope that this is all some misunderstanding..I pray that Marca keeps his position..but at the same time..if he’s right..the vote could be rigged.
What if they seen something..heard something..what if-
“Enya stop..p-please just..stop..” I glance at Marca. He was still hugging joe - who didn’t seem to mind one bit. “I’ll be okay..you know I will..I’ll come out alive, and so will joe..so will stephenie and Marie and you..and so will Anwyll..” I felt tears. “No Matter what happens tomorrow I know that I’ll be okay..a-and that it goes wrong I know you’ll keep your friends safe..that you’ll keep Josiah safe..”
But what about Marca..? I can’t lose Marca..I can’t lose my brother..Marca pulled away and looked at Anwyll. He flexed his fingers and before I had any say Anwyll pulled me away. “What- whose that..?” The girls whispered. Anwyll pulled me out of ear shot and I could stop the tears.
I was terrified..I honestly was. This trial..it could be rigged. “Anwyll what do I do..! I-if you're right..if my parents are doing something fishy. If this council has Theo in it the vote could be rigged! They could kill Marca..!” I sob cupping my face. “They won’t..! They won’t! Okay?” He quickly hissed, pulling me further away. He quickly ducked to meet my eyes. I shake my head.
“You don’t know that. What if something happens to him..w-what if they see something..what if they know that us having these powers don’t add up! The other members don’t know about our powers Anwyll..! Only our pack does!” He tensed. I shook my head sobbing softly. “They could kill him…they could-“ I choked out a sob.
Fuck what am I doing?! Pull yourself together woman! Why am I crying? Why? I’ve been so strong until now. So why? Why am I just now letting this out. “Hey..look at me..” he quickly nods, taking my hands and gently lifting my chin. I sniff and choke back a hiccup. “I’m not gonna let that happen..okay? We’ll figure out something..”
“How? We have no power over this stupid council! I-if Marca loses his position he could be kicked from the pack..” I whine. I shake my head and try to take a step back. “I-I’m going with him..! If he leaves. I leave..” he gripped my hands and his eyes darted up.
And I knew he was looking at Marca. “You know he won’t let you do that..” he mumbled. “I don’t care. He’s my brother.” I snap. I shyly wipe my eyes. My pain slowly turned into a feeling of rage and sadness. “I’ll burn this whole fucking council to the ground if I have to keep him safe..” his eyes Darkened and he looked me over. He went back to observing me. “Stop! Doing that!” I whine. Tearing up again. He blinked and looked away. “I- okay..let me think..” he sighed, messing up his hair.
Anwyll’s POV
She sure is one twisted girl. Burning the council the ground hm..? And they call me weird. But As much as I’d like to call her creepy. She’s not. I don’t know why..but her saying such things..her wanting to cause such violence and chaos seems normal to me..almost too normal. 167Please respect copyright.PENANATEpmSrOJvP
