Astrid POV
"We are fucked I mean at this point what do we do"? I run a hand through my mess of a hair having a mini freakout inside my head. Its seems my situation only escalates and gets worse!
"We need to call for a group meeting... we don't know when your father will strike so we need to start preparing" Cohen says seriously pacing back and forth.
"Wait Cohen... have you actually spoken to my father or... how did you find all of this out" I ask narrowing my eyes at him.
"I did not speak to your father directly, my father video chatted with me he explained everything that is to take place"....
My leg starts to shake up and down how did I let this get so out of hand. I need to speak to my mother to make sure she is alright and safe. If anything were to happen to her I don't know what I would do...
"Cohen I need to speak with my mother immediately... she probably has no idea what's going on"..
Cohen nods his head in agreement "ok my love I will get in contact with your mother... but we must be careful your father must not know about this".
I nod my head quickly understanding as of now I fear for the worst to come...

In seconds I video chat with my mother who looked very tired and stressed out. "Astrid my beautiful girl how are you doing, are you eating well, do you feel sick, I'll pick you up"....
A small smile enters my face my mother no matter what the situation was she always was caring. I tried my hardest to hold back the tears.
"I'm okay mom I just... I wanted to make sure you were alright, dad hasn't been himself lately and I'm worried of your safety"...
In this moment I wish my mother were here to console me. I watch as my mother looks around the room lifting her hands up.
"Baby sign to me I don't want the guards to know what I'm about to say" my mother signs. I nod back understanding what she is saying. It's been too long since I have signed.
"Your father has become so different his aura is off. He told me his plans about taking over the human realm he wants absolute control. I tried to talk him out of it but he insists. It's like this new power he posses has taken over him completely".
My mother signs quickly and my chest is constricting. Knowing that my mother knows what is going on and she is in the middle of it. That scares me...
"Mom... this is all my fault dad wanted me to marry Cohen. I refused so then he somehow got ahold of my powers with the help of black witches. Mom I am so sorry that you are in this, I promise I will fix this so that we will finally live peacefully". I sign back tears finally leaking out of my eyes.
"Now my baby stop crying, this is not your fault. Your father was always jealous of the power you posses. Powers or not you are the strongest girl I know my beautiful daughter". My mom signs with so much love and passion.
"Mom I want you to move to the safety house... you'll be safer there" I sign quickly. The connection begins to get hazy.
"Do not worry baby I will be staying with your aunt for a couple of days. I'll be leaving tonight as soon as I can, also your brothers will be flying in to you. I know it's been a while since you've seen them. They are worried of your safety".
I nod my head my family actually coming together again. Just then the connection drops before I can even say goodbye to my mother. I feel awful about what is to come.
Cohen walks into the room and I quickly wipe away my tears. "My mother will be staying with my aunt... until its safe" I say my cracking due to me crying.
"Everything will be fine my love, I will make sure no harm will come to you or your family and if it's a fight that your father wants...
Well then he better prepare"..
