“Do forgive me for intruding… I don’t know if you know, but this is the house that I grew up in… with my mother.”
I say, wrapping my arms around myself.
His face instantly falls and looks worried. “I’m so sorry. I do remember hearing that. I am sorry about your mother. I truly am.”
“Thank you… I was wondering if I could have a moment to look around.”
I say quietly. “Just one final time to reminisce about the memories we shared here.”
“Of course! Right away, come on in Alpha.”
He says, quickly stepping aside. I step inside, my eyes going to the under -the-stairs closet. Could it be here?
I’m inside… but how do I send him away? I walk down the hallway. It’s changed a lot, but even then, the echoes of moments spent in these halls fill my mind.
‘Zaia! No muddy shoes inside! Mommy! Look what I found! Zaia! Dinner is ready Oh, my favourite… Zaia, will you be late? Take care of yourself… You will always have me!’
Memories swirl around my mind, and I’m not prepared for them.
Mom…
“Alpha…”
I look at Grant, who offers me a tissue.
“Thank you… may I have a while alone?”
I ask quietly.
“Yes, my daughter is upstairs… I will go join her. Take your time.”
“Thank you…”
He bows his head and heads upstairs.
Excellent.
I hear his footsteps fade as he heads down the hallway and I quickly walk to the under the stairs cupboard and unlatch it.
The emotions are still threatening to consume me, but I do my best to focus on the task at hand. There are a lot of coats inside but I’m relieved that the floor is pretty empty, save a few items.
Taking out the few pairs of shoes, I put down my bag and get to work as fast as possible; knowing that he could come down soon or perhaps someone could walk through the front door.
My senses are on alert as I quickly pry open the floorboard at the back. I work quickly and when I have three pried up; I remove the insulation from the ground and peer into the darkness, using my phone flashlight to help in case I miss something.
I’m feeling around, doubt creeping into my mind when I spot it; a small black pouch covered in dust, peeking out from the corner, wedged into a crack between two of the bottom planks.
My heart skips a beat, and I reach over, tugging it out. Instantly I feel a wave of power radiate from it and my eyes blaze, knowing that this is what I’m looking for.
This is it… I’ve found it!
I quickly replace everything as swiftly and silently as possible. Exhaling in relief, I quietly step out of the closet and shut the door, latching it. I walk to the bottom of the stairs and look towards the landing.
“Mr Grant?”
I call up the stairs.
I hear footsteps and a door open, and he appears at the top of the steps.
“Yes, Alpha, can I help with anything?”
he asks as he hurries downstairs. I smile. “Thank you for giving me a moment…”
I say quietly.
He nods. “You are most welcome, Alpha.”
Bidding farewell, I take my leave. The door shuts behind me and a sudden thought creeps into my mind.
If Mom had this with her from the start why did she never use it to find Zade? Surely with the right manpower, this could have helped Dad get him back…
A question I may never get the answer to, but deep down, I feel there’s more to it. Well, it’s time we moved forward with the next step.
Sebastian… I will find you soon and when I do… I swear upon the moon and the heavens that I will not go easy on you. You chose the Sable, so now… you will face the wrath of the Sublime.
28. An Hourglass or I Am The Luna By Moonlight Muse
ZAIA.
Night has fallen and I’m sitting in the lounge with Jai, Valerie, and Atticus whilst the children play before the fire.
“So we don’t really know how much is needed… or exactly how to use it,”
Atticus says as he examines the pouch.
Rain is pouring down outside, and it’s rather windy. Somehow, it reminds me of the day I met Sebastian again when I first found out Valerie was in a coma…
Oh, how that feels like so long ago. I nod as I sip my coffee, and Sia comes over and climbs into my lap, hugging me tightly.
“Hey baby, is everything ok?”
I ask her. She nods. “I just a little tired,”
she says with a cute pout, and I kiss her forehead gently, caressing her hair.
“Aww, well Mommy will get you to bed soon, ok?”
She nods, placing her hand under her chin as she leans against me. I wrap my arms comfortingly around her. “I wonder how much is needed.”
Jai muses staring at the pouch. We’re speaking French as the children are here.
“I don’t know, but I don’t think we would need much. I guess it’ll be trial and error. As in, would we need a name or not? Do we need to do it under a full moon or not?”
I muse.
“We will just have to follow our gut feeling,”
Atticus says.
“So, what now?”
Valerie asks.
I look into the fire as Zion plays with his trucks, lost in his own little world. Times like that are gone once you are an adult, but I am grateful that through this time they can still be children, despite the fact I am certain they know when things are up.
“One month. In one month, I want everyone to be ready for war. In that time, I will find the enemy… and we will attack…”
I say quietly.
“That gives us plenty of time to find out how it works… plus I want to try to find father before then…”
I say quietly.
“Sounds like a plan,”
Atticus says.
“I want to train though, if you could help me,”
I say, looking over at him. The boys look at me, surprised, and I raise my eyebrow. “I just want to be at my best for when we do face them.”
“Me too,”
Valerie says with determination.
“Well, I think we can train you guys up.
A lot of women have offered to step forward too.”
Jai says with a small smile. “Our packs are made of fighters.”
“Plus, we need to work on our Triquetra. Together, we will obviously be stronger and can call on our powers.”
Atticus adds.
Just like when we first touched. “I just wish we had as much time to prepare as them… but time is running out,”
I say quietly.
