“So, just so we’re clear on this, Chad is going to go into hiding after he gives his DNA to the witch along with the other Alphas, which I’m assuming includes Wyatt?” Brent asked. They nodded their heads. “Okay, then the clones will show up to the pack, we act as if nothing is different, then all of the Alphas agree to an Alpha meeting?” They nodded again. “Cool, so, uh, where’s this meeting supposed to take place?”
“That hasn’t been determined yet, but it will be whenever the clone Alphas have a conference call to determine it. Once we get a location, we will make sure that the news reaches Eric or whoever his minions are, so they can tell him directly.” “What minions? He’s probably killed all of them!” Maverick shouted.
“Doubtful, but we will make sure he finds out one way or another. Just make sure that only those you trust with your lives know about what’s going on. If the wrong person finds out, this could blow the entire operation,” Wyatt said firmly.
“Don’t worry, everyone in this room is trustworthy. After the s**t we just went through today, I don’t know who else to trust,” Chad replied as he gripped my hand. I went to squeeze his back, but I suddenly found myself in the middle of nowhere. I looked around and saw nothing that I recognized.
“Chad!?” I called out.
“Lanie, what are you doing here!? You’re supposed to be hiding!?” Chad told me, but this wasn’t my Chad. This Chad was different, but yet, still the same? Wait, could this be the clone?
“I was worried about-“
“Shhh!” he shushed me and pulled me aside.
“Lanie, I get that you’re worried about Rylee and her pup, but you have to stay hidden. Nicole and Emma are looking for you and Lexie.”
“Why?”
“What do you mean why? They’re trying to kill you! Emma doesn’t want little sisters, let alone one’s that are related to Rylee. And Nicole, well, it’s obvious why she wants you dead.” I started to respond when I found myself back in my chair next to Chad. “Lanie, where did you go just now?” Chad asked.
“My stars, what just happened?” Jonah reacted, totally confused.
“Lanie, what did you see!?” Rylee asked me. My mouth just hung open, and I didn’t know how to answer her. I was still trying to figure it out myself. “LANIE!?” I circled my eyes to everyone. “Ummm… I think we’re in trouble.” .
***Rylee’s P.O.V.***
There was no time to feel out of sorts anymore, even if my life seemed to be spiraling out of control. I had so much on my plate, and everything just kept getting more and more complicated. I didn’t even get a chance to process what happened today before my mind was flooded with visions of Lorelai and Lanie in a fight. I knew I needed to get there, but without Olivia, there was no one to transport us there in time. I called the only person I knew that was even remotely close to Golden Moon-Elder Jonah. With Richard’s impending coronation to become an Elder, Jonah had mentioned in passing that he would be staying nearby so I quickly called him to let him know about my premonition. Because of Lanie’s lack of training, I knew she wouldn’t stand a chance, not when it came to Lorelai’s ridiculous obsession for Chad. I also made sure to let him know about the dead bodies that we were recently gifted by Eric. He seemed overwhelmed when I mentioned that part, and he told me that we weren’t the first pack to tell him of such events. Apparently, we were the fifth pack in the last few hours to notify him of what had happened; it was then I knew that Eric wasn’t just threatening us or Golden Moon, he was threatening all of us.
It wasn’t long before Wyatt told me he received a conference call request from Jonah at Golden Moon, most likely to discuss our plan to deal with Eric. Still, a sense of relief washed over me as soon as I saw Lexie and Lanie in the background with everyone else. I was really surprised to see Jennifer there too. She looked so much healthier and seemed to be taken with Maverick, even though it was obvious they hadn’t marked or mated with each other yet. I could tell by the way she stayed close to him that she was starting to warm up to him. They would make beautiful pups in the future.
I was amazed at how quickly everyone got on board with Wyatt’s crazy idea. I honestly thought it would take a lot more to persuade Jonah to go along with our plan to use a dark witch to create clones of all the Alphas. It definitely took some convincing on Wyatt’s part to get me to agree to it. After the whole situation that happened with my clone, just hearing the word made me cringe. I thought he had lost his mind and gone mad, but he has never been more certain about a plan than he was with this one. I had asked all of the same questions that Lanie and everyone else did, and I gave them the same answers that Wyatt had given me since they were the most logical and to the point. What threw me off completely, though, was seeing Lanie up and vanish into thin air mid- conversation.
“Lanie!?” Chad shouted and bolted to his feet when she disappeared.
“Good goddess, what happened to her!?” Jonah asked, also standing to his feet.
“You don’t think?” I wondered, looking at Wyatt. He just shrugged his shoulders. Knowing that the girls’ powers were only going to get more powerful, I had the inkling that Lanie just transported herself into the future or, in the words of William, did a time skip. About two minutes later, she reappeared in her chair as if nothing had happened. Chad and everyone else asked her if she was okay and where she had gone, but I needed to know what she saw. Because she wasn’t in front of me, I couldn’t read her mind. “Lanie, what did you see!?” She didn’t answer and kept looking around the room as if she was trying to make sense of what just happened. “LANIE!?” I shouted at her.
“Ummm… I think we’re in trouble,” she finally responded.
“What do you mean?” Chad asked. Lanie was about to answer, but then I remembered something that William told us.
“WAIT!” I hollered, catching everyone’s attention. “Remember what William said. You’re not allowed to tell anyone what you saw. You didn’t just see the future, Lanie, you went to it. Which means whatever you just lived through is supposed to happen.” “But Rylee!” she protested.
I cut her off. “No. You keep what you saw to yourself. You were supposed to see what happened for a reason. You can’t tell a soul, not even me or Chad. No one can know what you saw,” I told her sternly. She opened her mouth to argue back, but I gave her the look and she reluctantly nodded her head.
“Luna Rylee, pray tell us, what is going on here!?” Jonah demanded.
“Jonah, you already know who the girls are-and who I am. Like me, the girls have powers. Their powers are two sides of the same coin. In Lanie’s case, she can do what is known as time skipping,” I answered him. “Time skipping?”
“Yes. She can jump to the future, not very far from what I can tell right now. But it’s not the same as my ability where I have premonitions of events to stop or prepare for them. She is able to see or visit actual events in the future that have already happened, meaning she is going to the future. Lexie, on the other hand, can send people to the past. Those who need answers or need to learn the truth about an event.”
“That’s what she did to the pack members!” Jackson exclaimed.
“You what?” I asked Lexie upon hearing this. “You were able to send your pack members to the past, willingly!?”
“Yeah, but it was only like five minutes in the past.”
“No, you sent some people further,” Brent told her.
“I did?”
“Yeah, didn’t you hear the older guy’s reaction? He told us he actually saw what Damon did to Rylee with Sam in the bed.”
“Oh, I didn’t know I sent someone that far back,” she c****d her head to the side.
“Remember what William said about your powers, Lexie, you send people back to where they need answers. That pack member must have been curious about exactly what Damon did to me,” I replied. Wyatt growled next to me. I looked at him and put my hand on his thigh to calm him down.
“Oh yeah, that reminds me,” Chad interrupted. “Damon and Lorelai are to be executed tonight.”
“Tonight?” I asked, looking at the wall clock. “Chad, it’s almost ten in the evening.”
“I won’t postpone their death sentences, not after the s**t they tried to pull on us a little while ago. They’ve been given enough leniency. Knowing that their father was one of the moles in our pack, we can’t afford to let them escape and go to Eric either,” he replied. “I’m glad you brought that up, Chad,” Richard mentioned. “Why did you want to give them the rest of the night to spend with Torrance?”
“Oh, that. I, uh, well, I thought it would be nice for Torrance to spend her kids’ final hours with them before her birthday ended.” “BIRTHDAY!?!” Richard and Jackson both ululated.
“Yeah, when I heard her firing off questions to them, the first one she had asked was when her birthday was. I got the feeling that she didn’t just throw that question out for no reason, so I pulled up her pack member file, and sure enough, today is her birthday. Her fiftieth to be exact,” Maverick explained.
“My stars, that poor woman. First, her mate’s remains fall from the sky, and now both of her pups are to be executed,” Jonah gasped while shaking his head.
“Wait, then what was my premonition about? Why did I see Lorelai and Lanie fighting?” I asked the room.
