“Baby, we will never let anything happen to him.” Mason said, pulling me to his side.
“I know that, logically. But my anxiety and fear doesn’t see that.” l said.
“I would never let anything happen to our hatchling.” Freya said in my mind. Her calling him a hatchling made me giggle.
“What’s funny?” Derek asked.
“Freya just called James a hatchling, which is adorably funny.” I giggled. Derek chuckled, sitting on the other side of me.
“l guess he’s my hatchling and Mason’s pup,” he said.
“I wonder which one he’ll get.” I said out loud.
“Whatever it is, he’ll be bada*ss like his momma,” Liam said, and Matt chuckled.
“No kidding.” They both laughed.
“We can not have a girl.” I said, terrified. The entire room erupted into laughter.
“Oh, come on. She would look just like her gorgeous momma.” Derek said.
“And she would get all the boys,” I sung out. Both Mason and Derek let out a growl.
“Not fvcken happening.” Derek huffed, crossing his arms over his chest.
“Planning more kids already?” Liam asked, and I shook my head.
“I’ll only have one when Sage is pregnant. So talk to Sage. I refuse to do the next one alone,” I answered him.
“Brandon, you better get on that.” Mason said.
“Yeah, like haven’t. She wants to wait until this is all settled.” Brandon said.
“l actually agree with her. I would have liked to wait as well, but baby boy had other plans. Not that I would ever give him up. But I may have acted more clearly, less on instinct,” I said.
“Do you always feel you’re in protective mode?” Liam asked me, and I nodded.
“Always. I know he is safe with any of you, but all logic is thrown out the window when l feel like he is in
danger.” I told him.
“Anyway, what are you all doing up?” l asked them.
“Well, we’ve had something come up.” Mason said cautiously. My stomach immediately sunk.
“Great. Just tell me.” I sighed.
“So, four out of the six females we brought back are over the age of 18. Then there’s 16, and Gabby is 8. The four males are all over 18” Mason told me.
“And what’s the problem?” I asked him, confused.
“It’s not a problem, as it is strange,” Derek said.
“Tell me,” I gr0aned out.
“I found my mate,” Liam said, and I stared at him before it finally registered.
“I did as well,” Matt said.
“Wait, slow down. Both of you are mated to hybrids that I didn’t have to form a bond?” I asked them slowly, and they both nodded.
“Charlotte is a witch wolf.” Liam said.
“And Hazel is a witch Fae,” Matt finished.
“So both of you already felt the bond, and they have accepted?” I asked them.
“Just talking. They seem pretty scared, which we both understand. They have been locked away their entire lives,” Matt answered.
“Wow, I did not expect that.” I breathed out.
“I wonder why you didn’t need to place the bond?” Derek asked me.
“Maybe it’s because it never left them. But that’s fantastic news. I’m so happy for both of you. And I’ll help anyway I can.” I told them with a smile.
“And the others will find their mates as well. Maybe we can get some normalcy back into our lives.” I said.
“We should get ready to leave soon,” Derek said, and I nodded.
“Liam, Matt, Brandon, I’d like you all to go to the council building and get it all organized for us. Take everyone with you. It’s not safe here anymore for them.” I told them.
“We already filled them in, baby.” Mason said.
“Oh, thank the goddess.” I sighed.
“We should probably go pack a bag, since you can shift now,” Mason said.
“Yeah, no kidding. It was quite awkward shifting in front of 10 strangers,” I said, and both of them gr0aned.
“But your dress?” Liam asked.
“Freya did that after,” I said, pushing my l!ps into a line.
“Great” Mason gr0aned.
“Oh, it’s fine. I’m sure more than enough women have seen you. And I don’t want to talk about you.” I said, looking at Derek.
“What? I said nothing,” Derek exclaimed.
“Your daddies are so lucky momma loves them so much,” I said, standing with James. I had to go get James and I packed for our trip to the dragon kingdom.
“Come on my little lovely, we need to go get ready to see grandpa dragon.” I told James, leaving the guys.
When I had him and myself all packed up, I put our bags at the front door and headed into the kitchen to make James a bottle before we left. Poor little guy has been up all morning with me. As soon as I walked into the kitchen, Gabby crashed into me, wrapping her arms around my waist.
“Ashlyn,” she exclaimed.
“Good morning Gabby. How did you sleep?” I asked her, wrapping my free arm around her.
“This place is wonderful.” She said in awe.
“I’m so glad you like it here.” I told her.
The others were all sitting at the table or around the island. They all looked so much better in their new clothes.
“I have some business to take care of. But I want you to know that the people that will stay with you will protect you. You are safe with them. And you will all be heading back to the council building. I will be there in a few days. There are some things I have to clean up.” I told them.
“My queen, do you need help with anything?” One woman asked.
“Please, all of you, call me Ashlyn. And what is your name?” l asked her. She was beautiful. Light golden brown hair flowed down her back, and she had big blue eyes.
“I’m Charlotte.” She answered.
“You’re Liam’s mate,” I said, and she blushed.
