“You have to stop killing everybody!”
“I’M THE ALPHA!!!” Eric roared at Ash. Though Ash wasn’t afraid of Eric anymore, he didn’t want to risk Eric killing him in retaliation before he had a chance to fight back. Ash bit his tongue and bowed his head, even though it pained him to do so. “Did West at least do what he was supposed to do and tell Wyatt that there was going to be an Alpha’s meeting coming up?” Eric calmed down and sighed.
“Yes. At least he was able to do that part right.”
“Then we’re ahead of schedule. Who cares if West told him about the other moles. At the rate you’re killing them, there won’t be any moles left by the time all of the Alphas meet.”
“For once, that pea-sized brain of yours has a point,” Eric said, mocking his son. “As soon as all of the Alphas meet, we will send the gift basket of were-wine.”
“Were-wine?” Ash asked in confusion.
“We won’t need to kill them with our own hands this time, or with the help of dark magic, for an old friend of mine has come to my aid and provided me with something that I know will kill all of them within seconds.” “What?” Ash asked.
“This,” Eric replied and pulled out a syringe that was filled with black liquid.
“What is that?”
“This, boy, is called Dimethylmercury.”
***Rylee’s P.O.V.***
Ever since William and Olivia went back to the Lunar Kingdom a few days ago, I felt like my life was just so empty. I tried to dwell on what William told me, to consider myself lucky for the family that I did have-Wyatt, Sam, Ronan and Grace, and everyone else in between. The pack itself was also my family, but I couldn’t help but feel as if something was just missing. I don’t know if it’s because I got so used to William being around all the time, or if it’s the fact that it felt like I’ve lost another father, but I felt anything but whole at the moment.
Wyatt was giving me space, and he wasn’t trying to pry into my feelings. I was incredibly grateful for that since I wasn’t sure I could handle his tough love crap right now. Grace was doting on me and waited on me hand and foot ever since Wyatt told her along with everyone else that I may be pregnant again. I wasn’t positive myself but, now that I thought about it, I had been feeling sick for the last day or two. Grace was gracious enough to provide me with my favorite pregnancy meal: steak and potatoes. Everything else was making me want to throw up, which led me to believe that I was, indeed, pregnant again.
I honestly wish I weren’t, especially with everything that was going on. I just didn’t have the mental capacity to deal with being pregnant while trying to figure out a way to get rid of the Pattersons once and for all. I looked at the clock and saw that it was just about time for Wyatt to come home from work. Sam was playing on his play mat, minding his own business. He was still obsessed with that black wolf plush that Olivia conjured during my pregnancy with him.
“Mommy, where Daddy?” Sam asked all of a sudden. I picked him up and placed him on the bed with me. He crawled in between my legs and continued to play with the wolf plush.
“Daddy should be home any minute. Then we’re going to wash up and get ready for dinner, yes?”
“Yeah!” Just as I said that the door to the bedroom opened and in walked Wyatt.
“Hey,” I greeted him as he loosened his tie.
“Hey back. How are you feeling, dearest?” he inquired as he walked over to me and kissed the top of my head, ruffling Sam’s hair afterward.
“I’m sad, but it is what it is,” I replied.
“You up for going down for dinner, or did you want to stay here?” he asked.
“Ummm,” I thought about it for a minute. I had been secluded in our bedroom since the day William and Olivia left, and that was three days ago. Though I wanted to stay in here, away from everyone and their questions, I knew that I couldn’t keep hiding. “I guess I can go down.”
“Are you sure? If you’re not ready then you don’t have to, Rylee.”
“Yeah, I’m sure. I don’t want to, but I know that I have to. I’m the Luna, and I can’t isolate myself every time something emotional happens to me.” Wyatt sighed and nodded his head. I gave him a curt smile before turning to Sam. “Sam, what do we do before dinner?” “Wush hans!” he said and clapped his hands.
“Come on, buddy, let’s go wash our hands for dinner!” Wyatt said in a cheerful tone and scooped up Sam, throwing him in the air while walking to the bathroom. I smiled at them and threw my body back onto the bed when the door closed. Rylee, are you okay?
No, Kaleigh, I’m not okay. I miss William and Olivia. They were like second parents to me, aside from Ronan and Grace. They were there for me when I was at my lowest point, through thick and thin. And now, suddenly, they’re both gone.
Rylee, you know they were never meant to stay with us forever. You knew that William was something more than just the first Primordial.
I know, I know, but still. It sucks. He said he would stay and help me train Sam when he became of age.
You heard what William said, that’s your job now. You. Us. We’re the matriarch of Primordials. And who better to train our son than us?
I hear what you’re saying Kaleigh, and I know that you’re right. It doesn’t stop me from feeling lonely.
Oh, come off it, Rylee. You’re not alone. Far from it. You have me, Wyatt, Sam, all of our friends, your sisters, and the little one growing inside of you.
What?
What?
Kaleigh, did you just say little one?
Oh, yeah, the little one. Perhaps going to see Dr. Andrews after dinner would be a wise idea.
Before I could say anything else, Kaleigh buried herself deep within the back of my mind.
“You did not just do that!” I shouted out loud.
“Do what?” I turned my head and saw Wyatt and Sam both staring at me.
“Ugh, not you. Kaleigh,” I replied and sat up.
“Why are you arguing with your wolf, baby?”
“We weren’t arguing. She just … ugh… she confirmed that I am, in fact, pregnant.” “YOU ARE!?!” Wyatt shouted at the top of his lungs and threw Sam in the air.
“WYATT!! BE CAREFUL!!” I screamed as Sam thankfully landed on the bed.
