Family. They were supposed to be my family, but they were monsters.
“Give Aurora back. She isn’t part of this,” I demanded.
“I don’t think you’re in any position to make demands, dear granddaughter,” Susan spoke.
“Give her back, Susan! I’m the one you want and you have me.” I told her and she just smirked.
“This little girl is my insurance. Insurance that you’ll actually do what I want you to do. No more games. If I don’t get what I want, then the girl dies. It’s that simple.”
Susan told me and poor Aurora cried harder.
“I miss mommy” she sobbed out. I rubbed my cheek against hers to give her some comfort.
“I know, sweetheart,” I whispered to her, k!ssing her cheek.
“What do you want, Susan?” I growled out.
“I want my powers back and then Morgan here will take your magic and then you can leave with the girl,” Susan answered.
“l can’t give you my powers, they are not mine to give,” I told her and she shook her head.
“You better figure it out, because if you want your child and The Fae princess to live, then you’ll do what I want.” She answered.
I could feel the protection spell around all of them except for the former vampire king. I decided not to act until I had a plan to get at least Aurora out of here.
Hopefully, her kingdom was on its way here now.
“Let’s show you to your room so you can think about what you want to do. And don’t get any ideas. Morgan here could kill the girl in a blink of an eye.” Susan said.
Some men came up from behind me. They pried Aurora off of me. She was screaming in fright. While a man grabbed my arm to lift me up to my feet.
“Don’t touch her!” I yelled out. Aurora tried to pull out of the man’s grin on her upper arm.
“Queen Ashy, help. It hurts.” She cried out. Tundra let out a murderous growl, and everyone froze.
“Let her go.” I growled out and he let go of Aurora. She ran over to me and wrapped her arms around my thighs.
“If you want my powers, no one will fvcken touch her.” l yelled at Susan. She stared at me while I glared at her.
“Fine, take them to their room.” She huffed out. She waved her hand to motion the men to take Aurora and me away.
The men led us down a corridor to what looked like a guest room. I knew we were in the old pack house of Emerald Lake, but it was hard to remember exactly where we were in the building.
One man opened the door and the other one pushed me into the room. I stumbled, but I caught myself before I could fall on Aurora. I turned back to give the man a piece of my mind, but I found the witch standing in the door frame instead.
“You said that Aurora and my baby would be safe if I gave you my magic.” I told her and she shrugged.
“All you have to do is give Susan the power that she wants and then 1get your magic. And only then can you leave with Aurora.” She told me and I was growing incredibly frustrated with their demands.
“I can’t give her my powers from the moon goddess.” l yelled out.
“And you also can’t use your magic without hurting your unborn child. So you’re going to have to decide what’s more important.” She told me. And I growled out in frustration.
She released the invisible restraints and slammed the door closed. I bent down and wrapped my arms around a sobbing and scared little girl. She was shaking and crying out for her mommy.
“It’s okay, Aurora. I will never let them hurt you.” I told her, k!ssing her forehead.
“I’m scared.” She snuffled.” know you are, sweetheart. But I will get us out of here. I promise.” I whispered into her hair. We moved over to the bed after I picked her up.
This was indeed a quest room. There was a king-sized bed in the middle of the room. There was also a small seating area with a loveseat and a chair that were placed in front of a small wood-burning fireplace.
There were a couple of doors, which I assume are the bathroom and closet. There were closed curtains behind the headboard of the bed. I think that’s the window.
I lay with Aurora until she fell asleep, snuggled into my side. I eased away from her to get up to inspect the room and to use the bathroom. One room was indeed the bathroom. I did my business and then hopped into the shower. I was covered with dirt and blood.
When I was done, I wrapped a towel around myself and grabbed some water from the sink. I knew they probably wouldn’t be feeding me, but I needed to stay hydrated. I exited the bathroom and walked over to the other door. I opened it and was surprised to find clothes.
There were different sizes, and there was even clothing for Aurora. I was more confused than anything.
Why would they have this all set up? They could have just tried to take everything from me and then killed me.
What were they planning? I thought while I found some sweatpants and a hoodie.
When I was dressed, I walked back into the bathroom to find a brush and a hair tie. Which I found.
This room would have been okay if I was being held against my will. And I didn’t have a scared little girl to protect or my son.
“Tundra, what am I going to do?” I asked my wolf while I brushed out my hair.
“I will protect our baby. But I don’t know what we should do. They aren’t really giving us many options.” She huffed out.
“Can you feel Mason and Derek?” I asked her, tears swelling in my eyes at just the mirror thought of our mates.
“They are both alive, if that’s what you are asking. I don’t know more than that.” She whimpered. I knew she felt the same pain in my heart that I did.
I braided my hair and drank down another glass of water before I made my way back to bed to get some sleep. I snuggled in with Aurora with one arm around her while I rubbed my small baby bump with the other hand.
“I will get us all out of here. I promise.”
Mason
A warm hand and sparks running through my hand and arm startled me awake. I blinked a few times, looking around the room. There’s only one person who can cause sparks like that, Ashlyn.
A warm hand squeezed my hand, and I turned to see Ashlyn standing beside my bed. She was smiling down at me. I sat up before pulling her onto my lap, wrapping my arms around her.
“Baby, they found you,” I breathed out. I looked over at Derek, finding that she had removed his bandages, and he was healing faster. I forgot about my pain, too relieved that Ashlyn was actually here, was safe.
“You healed Derek?” asked her, and she nodded.
“Are you hurt?” She asked me, looking up at me.
“I’ll live. How is our baby?” I asked her, moving the hoodie she was wearing to place a hand on her slight bump. Knowing our baby boy was growing bigger brought a smile to my face.
I leaned down, crushing my l!ps to hers. I missed her so much. She changed positions, so she was straddling me. She pushed me back onto the bed without breaking the k!ss.
Moving my hands under her hoodie, squeezing her impossibly close to me. I needed to feel her skin against mine. I’m not sure where she has been, but right now, all I cared about was that she was safe and Derek was healing.
Ashlyn pulled out of the k!ss, leaving us both panting as she rested her forehead against mine.
“Mason, I’m not actually here.” She sighed, and I looked at her, confused.
“Baby, what are you talking about?” I asked her.
“I’m dreamwalking, Mason. I’m here to make sure you both are okay. They have Aurora. And Grace is working with Susan. She killed Brad and their child.” Her voice cracked, tears flowing down her cheeks.
“Baby, we will find you. Derek and I will bring you three home.” I told her, but she shook her head.
“What do you mean no?” I asked her. She wouldn’t even look at me.
“Mason, please just listen to me. I need you to be strong for Derek and our boy. I love you both more than anything, and I need you three to be safe.” She whispered through her tears.
“Baby, you are scaring me. What are you saying?” I asked her. I was panicking at what she was trying to tell me.
“I know, Mase. I’m scared too. But I need you both to be strong. I need you both to love each other and to love our boy and to raise him into the man that I know both of you are. I need you to remind him every day how much his mommy loves him.” She sobbed, and I held her against my chest while she cried. Tears were falling down my cheeks at the things she was telling me. She didn’t think she was coming back to us. And the thought broke me.
