Filed To Story: The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate
“I can feel an energy coming from it” he responds sounding unsure of himself.
“Good work Charlie” I link him as we see a black car roll in. Feeling the air turn cold around me and my skin prickle I turn to Jax with narrowed eyes. “Witch?” I ask him as he nods his head in agreement.
“I think so..but it doesn’t feel right” he links me his eyes focused on the car parking. “We didn’t get this at the council building.”
The back doors swing open followed by a tall man with a head full of white hair, his eyes dark and piercing standing out on his pale aging face. Standing straight and oozing confidence he stretches looking around.
“Charles” I growl through the link to Jax as I feel Kia bristle. I continue watching as another man walks round, even taller than my grandfather and with an aura of power radiating from him. His eyes passing over the garage giving us a glimpse of his brilliant purple iris.
“He’s a dark witch” Kia links Jax and I making us tense. “His aura screams danger.”
“Dark magic?” Jax links us, “fuck!”
“I thought that had been banned by the council a long time ago?” I ask with worry.
“It had” he growled. “Shit shit shit.”
Watching them stride in I feel Alex link me, “dark magic I can sense it from here.”
“I know” I snarl back as I feel Kia’s anger surge through me.
“We need to tell the elders as soon as we are back” Alex links me urgently as I pass the message on to Jax.
“We will” he agrees. “I estimated a total of 75/80 people enter. I doubt that’s their full force.”
“I think it might be people from further afield” I voice. Seeing his eyes turn to me full of questions I continue, “think about it. He is going to want as much support as possible even with a dark witch. He’s not going to risk having everyone in the same place, he’s clearly too smart for that but this way he can recruit. Also I suspect more than one witch, this one seems to be far more powerful than anything I felt at the council building.”
“You could be right” Jax links with a groan. “Nova you know what this means?”
Looking at him with understanding he grimaces before clasping my hand tightly.
“War” I whisper.
“I think telling those other packs was a smart move” Alex suddenly links me as I can’t help but agree. “Ophelia is going to be heartbroken” he tells me quietly.
“We won’t give up” I promise him before we sit back waiting for them to leave. Focusing on if I can hear anything I huff in anger as I can’t make out a sound from inside the building.
“Can’t hear a thing” I link Jax in frustration.
“Neither can I” he sighs. “I suspect that’s due to magic”
A short 45 minutes later they begin to trickle out and drive off. “Everybody keep an eye on this black Range Rover” I order through the link.
“Not a subtle car” Jax comments before stiffening as my grandfather strides out. Hearing the noise of a loud engine approach my eyes shift to see a sleek black motorbike speed to a stop alongside where my grandfather is resting on his car. The rider pulls the helmet off swiftly shaking out their long hair and climbing off smoothly before speaking to Charles for a few moments in tones so low I barely hear anything despite being so close.
“No” I whisper as my stomach drops. Watching in horror as my grandfather gets in the car along with the witch and they drive off I hear Jax order through the link for Alex and my dad to trail him. The lady turns gathering her hair ready to put the helmet over before climbing on the bike.
Turning she keeps her head lowered before raising it slowly and looking directly at us in the garage. Giving me a cold smile, her hazel eyes icy and lacking life my surroundings fade away as I stand not dropping her eye contact.
Lifting her hand in a mocking salute she grins almost maniacally before putting her helmet on and roaring out the car park.
“Dad..the bike..” I link him whilst standing feeling lost.
“Who was it?” He asks.
“You couldn’t tell?” I ask.
“Who is it Nova?” He asks desperately.
“Mum..” I sob out loud as Jas pulls me close and I hear Dad cry in my head.
Jax POV:
Watching the bike peel away I grasp Nova into my chest before kissing her hard and pulling her out of shocked state. “We need to act” I say. “I have Axel going to check on Charles and his companion as well as Alexa and hers, they didn’t notify us of the bike approaching despite being ordered.”
“They’re not dead but something’s happened, their pack tether is there but faint.” Nova mumbles her eyes dazed as she speaks absentmindedly whilst staring after her disappearing mum. “We need to get them home asap” she whispers brokenly.
“My brothers will manage that, we are going to trail your grandfather” I order as we begin to run back to the cars. “I know it’s shocking seeing your mum..like that. But we can’t miss this opportunity” I grimace.
Hearing that Novas face sets in determination and pride swells inside me. “I know. I’ll link Alex and we can follow him and Kingsley.”
“That’s my Luna” I say as we leap over the nearby fence and spring to the tree line. Reaching the car we were using Nova jumps in the drivers seat making me hesitate for a moment before shrugging it off and jumping in.
“Keys” she demands holding her hand out as I pass them over to her. “Alex can link me it makes sense for me to drive.”
“I get it” I reassure her. “Just concentrate and be safe, can your dad not link us all?”
Hearing that she cocks a brow at me and smirks, “I can drive. And no I don’t think so, it seems to just be something Kia can do. Wait..you linked Alex and my dad?”
“I did..I’ve never been able to mindlink anyone outside the pack before so that’s new, I also didn’t think about it. I’ve also never seen you drive” I laugh slightly nervously as the engine roars to life and she peels off from where we were parked with a powerful wheel spin.
“Well you’re about to” she replies back sassily as she throws the car round a corner and floors it.
“It’s a good thing I trust you so much” I say as I clutch the handle, my knuckles turning white. Handling the car with ease she simply smirks at me as she concentrates on following Alex’s instructions. After a few moments she slows down to a less noticeable speed and up ahead I spot the car Alex and Kingsley are in.
