Chereads / The Lost Princess Finds A Mate / Chapter 24 - The War Is Here

Chapter 24 - The War Is Here

The next morning I wake up to Steve's arm over me. I didn't even realize that he came to bed. I guess I was so pissed off I just passed out. I mean They didn't even try to hide it. They wanted me to destroy my pack and take over these lands in order to rebuild their kingdom. Why would I do something like that when I have been fighting to save the pack this whole time.

Finally I get up to go take a shower. I need the distraction otherwise I would just get pissed all over again, and I know that can't be good for the baby.

Once I am done with the shower I go to the kitchen. Cassie is starting breakfast, when I ask her what's on the menu. She tells me," Nothing special just potatoes, eggs, bacon, and sausage."

Then she asks me how I'm doing. I tell her not really good. Then I tell her about last night.

She was shocked that they could be like that. Then she told me she was proud of me. That made me happy. After that I helped her with breakfast. Once we got everything set out Cassie puts out the call for food. Then Steve links me to come to his office. I tell Cassie I would see her later and go see Steve.

As I knock on his door he tells me to come in. I sit on the couch while he finishes his call. When he is done he comes over to me. I look up at him as he takes my hands and he pulls me to him. He holds me for a minute before asking," How are you this morning?"

"I am doing okay. I am trying not to dwell on last night. This is my pack and I don't intend to sacrifice them for the elves. They had their chance to rule but whatever caused the war that killed my family destroyed them as well. They might be my people to but if they want me to kill other's to make way for them they are going to have major issues. It is not my responsibility to fix the issues they created with their own hands. I will not sacrifice one people for another. They need to understand that."

"Okay baby I don't want to see you upset anymore so different subject. When did you want to get the extra blankets you said we needed?"

"If you have time we could do it today. They won't attack untill tomorrow night. And for some reason the blankets are important."

"Okay give me fifteen minutes and we can go. Perhaps we can get lunch while we are out to."

"Great I will get ready."

I kiss Steve then go to our room to change into comfortable clothes. I also grab my wallet and throw it in my bag. Then I run over and talk to Summer. Since William and the guys are out setting things up I need to tell her a secret.

Hey Summer how are you feeling this morning? I don't mean to pry but when did you and William start sleeping together?"

"Ummm isn't that a bit personal to be asking? I know your my sister-in-law and all but really?"

"I just ask because I had a glimpse of something but I don't want you to get overly concerned or excited about it yet. But I think you should go see the doctor. And maybe get a test done just in case."

"Wait, are you saying I am pregnant? Really you think I am?"

"I'm not sure sometimes my glimpses are close while others are weeks or months down the road. That's why I said you need to see the doctor. He would be able to tell. But if you are I am happy for you both. And if your not I guess now is as good a time as any for you to start trying."

"Okay then I will go get tested. And I will tell you one way or the other what the results are."

"Okay well I have to go so good luck. I will talk to you later."

After our talk I go back to the pack house. I am talking with Cassie about another canning project when Steve finally comes down.

"Sweetheart are you ready to go? The truck is here now I'm ready when you are."

"Cassie I will call it in to the girls. Yes Steve I'm ready to go just waiting on you."

Then just as I walk up to Steve I am hit by a sharp pain racing through my body. I do my best to block it. I shut down all barriers. I shield the baby and then ride it out. When it doesn't end after a minute Steve starts getting worried. He calls the guys to bring in the elves to see if they know what is going on. Then he sends for Mike. While I am on my knees in the middle of the floor I can partially hear what's going on around me but in my mind I am searching out the attack. I open to Steve blocking out as much of the pain as I can then we search out the problem. As the beta comes in with the elves and tells them to fix it he touches Steve's arm trying to get his attention. He gets sucked in by Steve. He opens to Tiffany and Mike to get help. And it starts a pack wide chain reaction. All adults see what Steve and I see. Then the one called Zander puts his hand on my shoulder and gets pulled along for the ride.

As I follow the stream of power back to the user I see six people sitting at a table with several pictures on it. There is a picture of the grounds near the pack house. There are pictures of key members of the pack. And there are several of me on the table. A women is standing at the end of the table with her hands over a picture of me. In the background we hear," Are you sure this is going to work? I want her destroyed she has polluted my pack long enough. She is just a mangy human who needs to be destroyed."

" Shut up Stacy I want her powers this witch will put her in the coma then we can take what we want from the pack. I want her alive not dead. Your are just going to have to deal with that. When we get there tonight she will be in a coma, the vampires will attack and kill all these people and anyone who gets in the way will all die. Then you can rebuild the pack however you want as their Luna."

The witch standing over my picture drops her hands and the pain stops. Then she says," The distance is to far I can't complete the spell."

"Well then sister if they will pay us double our asking price I will gladly help you. What do you say elder, Luna will you give us the south side of the pack lands to get rid of your problem?"

They look at each other and finally Stacy says," You can have it just get rid of her."

"Then we will get it done."

Back in the pack house...

Zander had brought the other elf into the connection from the start so they both saw it. They intertwine their magic and wrap it around me. They also realize I am pregnant so the put a shield over mine to protect the next heir. Then they add another shield over the light barrier William made. Then they help me to my feet. Everyone is still connected so the hear everything when Zander starts talking. "My queen as long as you don't leave the pack grounds they will be unable to attack you. As your guardians it is our honor to destroy these witches on your order. What do you say?"

I look at Steve, then at the others in the room and say," I am connected through her magic I need any details we can get before they attack. if the pain can't touch me I want them to think it worked to gets as much Intel as I can For warned is for armed. I will not let this pack be destroyed because someone does not like me."

"As you say my queen we will give you an hour to get your information. After that time we will destroy the witches."

Zander looks at Steve who only shakes his head. Then Zander tells me to sit down because they are going to starts again. Once I sit down I feel a pressure but no pain. Then I listen in. After five minutes the two witches tell them it's done. They think they have a clear line of attack now. Steve once again links the guys and we all listen to their battle plans. Once the hour is up Zander is true to his work and both witches drop dead. Then we hear Stacy and the elder laugh because they never planed to give them the land anyway. Then Zander broke the connection and we were back in the pack house.

After that Steve gets up and says," Well we won't be getting those blanket since you can't leave. Just chill in here, me and the boys need to prep."

Then he kisses me and leave.

I look over at Zander and his friend and say," Thank you both for your help. I didn't mean for you to get sucked in like that. What is your name ?"

She bows her head to me and says," My name is Zora your highness. We are honored to help. We also want you to know we did not agree with them last night. But we also know it is not our place to say anything or to punish when a royal is in the room. We would also like to teach you what we know. But it will be up to you your highness to practice otherwise using your powers will tire you. And with the little heirs coming you need your strength."

"Excuse me? What do you mean heirs? And please call me Kayla, Or even Luna. I would get rid of that title to but they won't let me. Now what do you mean?"

"Yes Kayla we can hear two heartbeats. I'm surprised you can't."

All I do is shrug my shoulders because I have nothing to say to that.

"So how do I learn everything from you?"

"That is easy, Close your eyes. Relax your barriers and we will teach you everything we know."

I do as they ask and twenty minutes later they release my hands. They are a little wobbly so I send them to lay down. Once they are gone I sit on the couch. Cassie comes over to see if I'm okay.

" Did they really just teach you stuff? Do you think they are telling the truth about the baby? I mean I was here the night the goddess said her grandchild was safe. You would think she would know if there is more than one right?"

"To be honest I'm not sure anymore. I think I will go see Mike. IF anyone can tell he can."

Cassie nods her head and tell me good luck. Then I link Mike asking if he's available. He says he is and to come in. So I walk down to the clinic. When I get there I tell him about what the Guardians told me and he takes us to the ultrasound room. Thirty minutes later I walk out of the clinic with several pictures. I run over to Summers house to see what she found out. It turns out I was right she is so excited to tell William. She has it all planned out. After she tells me all about her plans I go back to the pack house. Once there I show Cassie the picture and ask her not to say anything. Then I tell her I need a nap. Once I lay down I fall asleep fast.

Four hours later....

I wake up to the feel of Steve's hands up my shirt. As he roles my nipple between his finger I smile. He chuckles then he kisses me. I kiss him back then I turn more into him and start working his belt loose. Then I remembered what I learned today and just visualized us naked. He pulls back. I put my finger to his lips and shake my head then I kiss him again. Next thing I know he is buried deep inside me. He start moving slowly as he tastes and touches me everywhere. Then he starts moving faster. When he starts sucking on my nipple it makes me cum. I flip us over to where I am riding him and as I reach my next climax he cums with me. I knew if I was not pregnant already I would be today.

After a few minutes we get up and shower. Once we are out and dressed I show him the ultrasound photos. After a minute it dawns on him what he is looking at then he looks at me and says," Two babies? We are having two babies?"

I shake my head yes and smile. Then I told him how the Guardians said they heard two heartbeats so I had to go verify it and they were right.

He kisses me some more then he gets serious. "Well this just means I now have three reasons to protect you. First because I love you and second because I love them. Okay I want to get the women and children into the hospital bunker now. We have an hour before the sun sets. I think you should be with them."

"No that's not how the vision went. I need to be with you. Besides I now know how to shield myself. They won't get near me. Also the Guardians put up their own shield so no one is getting in.We will be fine I promise. Let's get the women and children safe Mike and a few of the guards can protect them."

Steve reluctantly agrees and we get things started. Ten minutes later we have everyone in the bunkers. Then Elder Anderson and the guys join us in front of the pack house. We all look toward William as he brings over the iPad. He also shows us an ultrasound photo. He is smiling from ear to ear while I give him a hug and Steve and the guys give him high fives.

A few minutes after this alarms start going off. We see that we are surrounded. At first I am a bit worried, but then we watch the vampires touch the fencing the turn to ash. On the iPad we see Stacy and the elder walk up to the front gate demanding to be let in. The guards refuse because they saw what we did earlier. Stacy gets pissed and starts hitting the gate. After a minute she realizes she is getting electrocuted and stops. Then she says the tree and they walk away. We watch as more vampires turn to ash and they just walk by them. Once we are completely surrounded William pushes a button and all of the cannons fire. We watch as hundreds of vampires turn to ash. This pisses off Stacy. She starts yelling for the next wave to move forward. Unfortunately this one has witches mixed in with it. They start attacking our walls. They are chipping away at the elves magic when I look at them and say,"Zora, Zander we end this now. To break the curse and be able to return home you must protect that which is not yours. Will you protect?"

"Yes my queen"

"Then take my hands and let us do this."

Everyone watches as the three of us rises in the air. We more or less form a triangle floating there. I put my arms out and tilt my head back. They do the same.

William is torn between watching us and watching the witches. He counts them and to Steve and the Elder he says," The elves shield has fallen There are more than a hundred witches out there now."

No one says anything else. As we started lifting into the air Steve opens to his pack so they can see what their Luna is doing for them.

After a moment my wings come out and I start glowing, then the Guardians do as well. We rebuild the shield only to have them destroy it again. Steve takes the iPad from William and watches. He notices our glow getting dimmer. Then I say,"Brother embrace your birthright help us destroy these invaders, will you join us?"

As he rolls toward us I lift him from the chair as he joins us I give him all of the knowledge I have received. Once he touches my hand his wings are released. Between the four of us all of the invaders start exploding. First one by one the buy the hundreds. with five minutes they are all gone. Then we fall.
