Mateless

*12*

"Mom why didn't you ever talk about it." I asked

"Just let finish please." I nodded and she continued, "One by one the women
disappeared. When they got to our cell they pulled a young girl out and she never returned. The remaining woman with me was Nicole. Nicole Saints and she was a powerful witch from Canada. Her clan was the most powerful and on the eve of her wedding to Phillipe Triepe, heir to the second most powerful clan she was taken and locked away." tears were silently falling down her cheeks.

"We got to know each other during the weeks we were held captive. She told me of the arranged marriage to combine the clans to assure peace and to make sure both sides powers did not fall into the wrong hands. As soon as they met they knew they were soul mates. They spent every waking moment together until that fateful night.

Some members from the hatte coven did not agree with Phillipe marrying outside their coven so they killed him right before Nicole's eyes and handed her over to Jacques." I was stunned beyond belief. This was stuff you read about not real life. I didn't know what to think.

"What does Nicole look like?" I quietly asked.

"Blonde hair and blue eyes, why?" mom asked me.

"Does she have twin boys?" I slowly sank to the ground.

"I'm not ... I dont know we were both pregnant when we got captured. I guess she could have had twins."

"You were pregnant? With me?" I asked bewildered.

"Yes, I'm so sorry Lyda. I never thought his son would come looking for you." mom sobbed.

"You said you killed him. What happened?" I stood up and made my way to the couch along the wall and sat.

"Nicole and I made a plan, which ever one they came for next would distract them so the other could find a way to escape but when they came for Nicole I couldn't let them take her." mom shakily made her way next to me and I held her hands. "As the door opened to let them inside I slipped out unnoticed and found a knife on a table in the adjoining room. When the first human stepped through I slit his throat and he collapsed. The other one released Nicole enough that when I threw the knife into his chest she was able to jerk free and run to me.

We made it out the front door before anyone knew what happened. As we rounded the house Jacques was waiting for us. I instantly shifted and caught him off guard. He fell and I landed on his chest ripping out his throat." tears were freely falling now as dad tried comforting her.

Throughout moms story a calming feeling spread through my body and I felt the need to shift and run to the borders.

"After I shifted back Nicole and I hid the body and ran into the nearby woods. Once we were a fair distance away from the house we were held in I was able to mind link your dad, he came for us. Right before we were rescued Nicole placed her hands on my stomach and whispered some weird words. She told me it was a protection spell for me and my unborn child. Then your father arrived and I was brought to the pack house while she was being brought to the meeting place with her coven."

"Sweetie why didn't you ever tell me the last part. I never knew you killed him yourself." dad asked.

"I was ashamed that I let my wolf take control and kill someone." she broke down again.

"Alpha, trespassers are trying to enter the east border. They insist they need to speak to the alpha immediately." Link my third in command said as he poked his head in the room.

"Bring them here." I said.

I hugged my parents, "Mom, you didn't have to go through that alone you know. We could have talked about it and it wouldn't have eaten you up all these years."

"I know sweety, I just didn't want you to have to worry about any of this." mom half smiled and kissed my forehead. I started to go back around my desk to sit down when the most intoxicating smells hit me. I whipped my head around as Link came into the room with three people following him.

As soon as the visitors entered the smell intensified and as I saw the first person I was at the door and grabbing the other twos hands with tears in my eyes.

"I told you we would find you mon amor." (my love) that sexy voice I dreamed about for weeks spoke as he brushed the tears away.

"Hello, mon cherie."(my darling)Dash said as he raised my hand, kissed it as I felt a hotness spread within me.

"Mates!" was all I could get out before I blacked out.
