“No?” He repeats.
“No” she confirms, “you will not get Caroline.”
“And why is that?” He asks amused.
“How about because of the damage and torment you have caused my biological parents, the fact you hurt someone I consider a sister, you wanted me dead when I was only a baby” Nova snarls fury clear in her eyes. “I could list so many reasons why.”
“You would hurt your own mother by stopping her from seeing her mother after almost 2 years apart?” Charles asks baiting Nova.
Laughing lifelessly Nova shakes her head. “What a hypocrite you are Charles. Because of you my mother was killed, her heart ripped from her chest before I could even say goodbye. So your attempt at making me feel guilty will not work.”
With that Charles’s eyes brighten, “oh Athena, your mother is very much alive. I thought you’d realise.”
“I saw her..but at this point she is no more than someone I share blood with, I have spent no more than 2 weeks with her because of you. 2 weeks I don’t remember” she growls. “The lady I saw today was no mother of mine, but the one that for 23 years cared for me, loved me and eventually died for me..that lady I do consider my mother, and I will never get her back” she says in a broken whisper as I feel her loss seep through the bond.
“So you aren’t thankful for what my daughter did for you?” Charles asks.
“Of course I am, she saved my life. But I am certain that lady who I saw today is nothing like who she used to be, she isn’t someone I can call my mother” Nova says calmly despite the strong waves of anguish and heartbreak I feel from her at those words. “So your attempt to guilt me like I said, will not work.”
Shooting her dad a look I see the unspoken communication between then before Charles roars “ATTACKKK!” And the rogues spring into action.
No sooner than they start Nova stands proud and releases her full aura, “STOP” she commands freezing all the rogues as they physically can not move. Gaping we all stand astounded at Novas show of power.
“She won’t hold that for long” Zeus says worriedly.
“How..?” Charles asks in shock.
“Jax take Caroline, Alex, Theo and the warriors ready the cars. Dad..you know what to do” she links us all and we quickly do as she orders.
“Because Charles, you have greatly underestimated me” she snarls looking him clearly in the eye. Seeing her body start to shake from the power of her command as her strength begins to fade I pass Caroline to a waiting Kingsley and step forward to provide Nova my strength. Grasping her shoulders with my hands I hold her up and kiss her head softly.
“I’m here” I whisper in her ear as I feel my strength pulse down the bond.
“You have made me experience loss like no other, I lost the only parents who were there for me growing up because you ripped my biological ones away from me..so now it’s your turn to suffer” she managed to shout just loud enough for Charles to hear as his face contorts to panic.
“CAROLINE” he screams as we turn to a waiting Kingsley and he slits her throat with one extended claw.
“You got what you deserved you bitch” he whispers into her ear as blood spurts from her, the life quickly fading from her eyes. Seeing Alex, Theo and a warrior fling the doors open Kingsley drops Caroline’s body and with a cold accomplished smirk he jumps into my car.
With a final push Nova holds her head high and calls “ROGUES..RETREAT!” With that they step back and begin to disappear from view before her eyes roll back and she slumps to the grounds.
“Nova..NOVA” I cry as I lift her to the car and slam the door behind me. Hearing her breathing steady but faint I sense Kia sleeping and turn as the cars pull away leaving a lone stranded Charles in the middle of the forest line.
“Floor it” I instruct as I see the witch step out beside him. “We need to go..NOW” I roar as we speed away leaving them in the dust.
“Theo call Laurence, have the pack hospital ready for Nova. She’s used too much strength” I link quietly as I hold her close to me.
“Yes Alpha” he replies instantly.
Seeing Kingsleys eyes on Nova in the mirror I shake my head at him, “I don’t know how she did that but because of her we lived.”
“She’s incredible” he whispers.
Jax POV:
Pulling up by the pack hospital Laurence opens the door and I jump out keeping Nova tight to my chest as I run to the waiting nurse.
“Put her down Alpha we’ve got her from here” she says calmly. Lowering her onto the bed gently I kiss her forehead before they wheel her to her assigned room. Rushing after her I’m quickly stopped by the Doctor.
“Alpha i know the need to be near our Luna is over whelming right not but please let us check her over and once we have done our job you can be by her side” he says holding his arms up to placate me.
Growling I try to push past him but Laurence holds me back, “the quicker they can treat her the quicker you are there with her Alpha.”
Gritting my teeth together I nod stiffly as Laurence pushes me back. “What happened?” He asks.
“It was a trap” I growl.
“How?!” He exclaims looking shocked.
“They knew we were there, they went ahead with the meeting but there was a dark witch there. We saw Charles and after Novas fucking mother turned up we trailed him. Next thing Charles steps out alone shortly followed by hundreds of rogues” I growl slamming a hand into the wall and crumbling it.
“How did you get away?” Laurence asks slowly.
“Nova” I whisper before falling silent for a moment.
“She commanded them Laurence, I’ve never seen someone have enough power to command that many before” I admit.
“You need to back up Alpha. First.. Novas mother?” He asks slowly.
“Peeled in on a motorbike, spoke to Charles then turned, saluted Nova and drove off” I growl running a hand through my hair as I stress.
“What the fuck” he growls as I feel his worry for his Luna rise.
“She left and we followed Charles because it was too good of an opportunity to miss. He fucking spoke to us, he had the guts to try and make Nova feel guilty for separating her mum and her grandmother when he’s kept her own mum away her entire life” I say rolling my eyes. “Nova put him in his place don’t worry.”
