Violets Pov:
I just wanted to be helpful. Instead I've done nothing but let Veronica take me with her. She's dragging me through the forest and I am trying to put up my best fight but she seems to just overpower me without much effort. After some time we come to a cliff and she tosses me to the side. I fell and hit my head on a rock causing my head to bleed and making me very light headed.
"You don't need to do this Veronica"
"You don't need to do this Veronica....oh I forgot how much I hate children" she mocks me back.
"Is that why you tried to kill your son when he was a baby?" The seemed to draw her out of her silent plotting.
Veronica stood still and glared at hard enough to make my blood run cold and send chills down my back. I waited for her to deny it. To say that the stories of how awful she was weren't true. She did none of those things. Instead she smiled and knelt down.
"My only regret was leaving the job to my sister who had a thing for theatrics. If it was up to me I would have slit his throat but she wanted him to be dissected piece by piece. If only I knew that bitch had twins I would have taken care of you as well. Oh well better late than never am I right?" She started laughing and pulled out a silver blade from behind her.
"STOP"
Veronica and I both turned to find Colton standing behind her.
"Oh boy I get two for the price of one. It must be my birthday!"
Colton lunges at her but she was too fast. She dodged him at the last moment and just as he passed her she stabbed the knife right in his back sending him flying and into my lap.
We needed a miracle.
"Guys are you alright." I could hear my fathers calling for us.
Oh my gosh.
They don't know who she truly is!
I was just about to scream when Veronica came forward and in one swift motion pulled the knife out of my brothers back and held it up to my throat.
"Scream and you die" she said. I closed my eyes and imagined the meadow. I thought about what it might be like to be reunited with mother. Suddenly death didn't seem that scary.
I felt the blade burn across my skin.
"Tisk tisk such a shame you look like your mother."
Finally I couldn't help it anymore as I felt her push the knife deeper .I let out a scream from the pain.
That's when I saw her. The most beautiful white wolf with a blue crescent moon and red paws.
"Mom?" I whispered was all I could get out before the darkness engulfed me.
Liza Pov:
I ran thru the forest feeling every twig snap beneath my paw. I was trying to focus on violets but it was becoming hard drowning out the screams from the village. The town was up and the battle was in full swing. Some of the rogues were throwing bottles laced in gas and lighting them on fire. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
Think Lilly.
Then I heard it. Violets cry. It was like she was the only one in this field. I kept running and stopped only for a moment to see violet was on a cliff with Colton and with Veronica as well . I looked over by the water and saw Cole, Zeke, Asher, all shouting at the princess not knowing yet her real identity or her roll.
"Guys are you alright?"
Silence.
Then I heard what no mother ever wants to hear in her life.
Violet screaming.
I used my speed and I made it to the cliff in no time charging straight towards Veronica.
"Mom?" I heard my sweet angel say.
"Rest mon papillon" and just like that violet closed her eyes.
I mind linked Cel and told her what was going on Colton and Violet both needed medical attention. Unfortunately She ran to the village and has been using enchantment to protect the women and children and try to give the warriors leverage.
"This needs to end Veronica"
Veronica stood up and wiped the blood away from her lips.
"For once I actually agree with you on that. Tell my sister hello once I send your ass back to limbo"
With that Veronica charged making her first mistake.
See one thing you need to remember about Veronica is she was always more of a shopper and a bitch than a fighter. Veronica also doesn't know that my powers transferred over to this body as well.
"Veronica I'm giving you one last chance to quit"
"Letting you win has never really been in my nature so I'll pass"
I decided to finish this fight in my human form.
Veronica lunges forward again and I didn't even really have to use my speed as I placed my knee in her rib cage. That still wasn't enough. She came back again and this time when she got close enough I let her connect with my fist sending falling back. She stumbled a few steps before tripping over the kids and I used my speed to grab he arm just as she fell off the cliff.
"Veronica give me your other hand so I can pull you up."
I looked at Veronica and no longer saw the evil queen or the bitchy facade she put on. Instead I saw a scared little girl who began to cry.
"He should've picked me. He promised." She whispered before releasing her grip on the hand I did have and falling straight on a point rock puncturing straight through her body.
I shifted back into my Wolf form and gently guided Colton and Violet onto my back before heading down. Once I reached the bottom I saw Cole, Zeke, and Asher all surrounded by Veronicas Dead body.
I walked up behind them still hiding in the shadows but I let my presence be know.
"Who are you! You will pay for your crimes you murderer!" Cole used his Alpha tone to try to get me to submit.
Unfortunately for him mate or not. Lilly does not submit to anyone.
"Come forth now and the punishment may be a quick death" Zeke spoke up.
I walked towards them slowly coming from the shadows and letting the blood moon show my wolf.
I took a deep breath.
It was time for the moment of truth.
