17 What Does It Mean
Franklin POV
“I’ve never seen a wolf with red fur like fire. She was amazing. That energy ball had no effect on her at
all.” “I was there, Franklin. I know what the f**k happened. If you don’t stop talking about that f**king
wolf, you’re going to be sorry.” “You seem upset that your power had no effect on her, Lydia.” “F**k you
Franklin.” She generates a ball in her hand. “It may not have hurt her but it will sure as hell hurt you.” I
smirk “we both know you won’t hurt me. We need to figure out exactly who and what we are dealing
with before we attack the collective again. A wolf like that could be worth something big.” She
extinguishes the ball and plops down on my couch. “What about Cayden?” “How could we not know
that he was part warlock? He never fought back against the men, not even when they tortured the
mutt.” “You kept both of them so weak that I’m sure he wasn’t able to come into his powers. You’re
lucky he didn’t kill you before I stepped in front of you when he escaped.” “I want that piece of sh*t
mutt, dead. He can’t be as powerful as you” I say as I pull her to stand. I pull her close to my body. She
smiles “you’re lucky you’re so good in bed.” I slam my mouth down on hers. I pull back from her as I get
a link. “F**k” I say and she looks at me.
“That ba**ard Grant is here with ten warriors.” I take her hand, leading her outside the cottage. I keep a
significant distance between us because he definitely looks pissed. “It’s good to see you again, Grant.
To what do I owe this visit?” He growls and my men come to stand behind me and Lydia. “My Luna is
gone.” “Well, I assure you she isn’t here, Grant.” He steps closer and Lydia lights her hands up. “I may
not be as strong as you, Grant but I would be very careful to not piss Lydia off.” “I didn’t come here to
kill you or fight. I came here because I’m going to need your help again to get my Luna back. We need
to speak in private.” “It’s not really private if you have ten warriors with you” I say, crossing my arms
over my chest. “They are here purely for my protection. They will remain out here while we talk in
private.” I turn to my men “you link me if even one of them moves.” They nod at me and I point to the
cottage. I will not let that ba**ard walk behind me.
Once we are inside the office, I make sure that the desk is between us. “What can I possibly help you
with, Grant?” “My Luna is in the Nightfire pack. I need your witch to get her back. I will not lose my Luna
over some pups that should have never been born.” “I am no man’s witch”, Lydia says. I lay my hand
on her arm. “Lydia isn’t a member of this collective, but I’m sure if the price is right she would be willing
to help you get your Luna back.” I look at Lydia and she nods. “Fine, what is it that you want, witch?”
Larisa POV
I’m lying in my bed getting ready to get up for the day. Clara has been spending more time with Eli. I’m
so glad she has finally accepted that my brother loves her. Clara and Eli deserve to be happy. The
twins are constantly training, so Rose and I are left trying to occupy ourselves. A knock sounds on the
door and my mom walks in. “We will be having breakfast in the private dining room today.” I sit up and
swing my legs over the side of the bed. “Is something going on, mom?” She smiles “we have some
guests for breakfast.” She turns and closes the door behind her. I grab a pair of jeans and a t-shirt
before I head into the bathroom. As the warm water flows over my skin, I start to feel hot all over. I
adjust the water temperature, trying to cool myself down. I completely turn off the hot water, but despite
the cold water rushing over my body, my skin still feels like it’s on fire. I bend, placing my hands on my
knees. My breathing is fast and I can feel myself starting to panic.
“Larisa, are you coming?” I hear Rose’s voice coming from my room. “Rose” I manage to get out. She
rushes into the bathroom and when our eyes meet she looks scared. “Larisa, what the hell is
happening?” “I’m not sure. Go get my mom, please” I say before everything goes dark. A few minutes
later, I’m in a place I’ve never seen. It looks like a pack house but it’s empty. The interior is dark and a
shiver runs down my spine at the coldness I feel in the air. I hear voices coming from a hallway off the
main room. I know I should run away, but instead I find myself walking toward them. The door is
cracked and I can see a group of men sitting around a table. The man at the head of the table is
younger than the others but he is very much in charge. A woman pushes open the door and walks past
me like I don’t even exist. I follow her into the room, keeping my distance from the table. She snakes
her arms around the neck of the man sitting at the head of the table. I don’t know why, but her touching
him pisses me off. “Jonelle go back to our room. I’m busy and I don’t have time to play right now.” Bile
rises in my throat at his words, but I don’t know why.
She kisses him before she leaves the room, closing the door behind her. I ball my hands at my sides,
but hearing him speaking about the Nightfire pack gets my attention. “I’m not sure that doing what your
father has asked is a good idea”, one of the men says. Anger flashes in his eyes as he stares at the
older man that dared to speak. “This is not a meeting to discuss what you think, Argo. I am the leader
of this coven. It is my birthright and you will follow my orders. Do I make myself clear?” “Yes sir, I meant
no disrespect. I purely mean that the pack is also supported by the former Black Rose Coven. The
warlocks and witches will defend the pack against us. We are strong but no match for that amount of
magic.” “I’m well aware of who and what we are dealing with. Why do you think I keep Jonelle as a bed
warmer? She will do anything I ask of her. Her coven will bend to my will if I make her my beloved.” I
want to run from this room but I need to find out what coven I am seeing right now. I don’t know why I’m
having this dream or vision, but it must be important to the future of the pack. The men stand and I
follow the man he called Argo.
“He is going to get us all killed for some stupid promise he made to a man that is dead. I will not die
fighting for the Black Heart coven because he is still acting like a boy seeking a man’s approval.” “Argo”
I hear a harsh voice from behind us. I move farther away as he rushes toward him. He grabs him by the
throat and everything goes black again. This time I hear a voice in the darkness. “Sometimes the
goddess chooses someone who is strong for someone that needs to be saved by the bond” the voice
says. “Who are you and what does that mean?” The voice doesn’t answer and I feel alone. I don’t know
how much time passes in the darkness before I can hear a beeping. I try to open my eyes. They feel
like lead and I can’t manage to pry them open. I can hear voices around me. My father’s growl quiets
the room. “Tell me exactly what the hell happened.” I try again to open my eyes and this time I can. I
look around and everyone is staring at me. “Larisa, you scared the hell out of us”, my mother says, and
wraps me in her arms. My father hugs me next and helps me to sit up.
“Are you alright” Rose asks as she comes to stand by my bed and takes my hand. “I thought you were
shifting but when you passed out I was so scared.” I squeeze her hand. “I’m not sure exactly what
happened but I believe the goddess was showing me something important.” Eli and Clara stand next to
my parents. I scream when I realize she is marked. “Oh my goddess, you’re marked” I say pointing to
her marking spot.” She smiles and my mother shoots me a glare. “Could you not scream after what just
happened please?” I smile “sorry I just got excited. Congratulations Eli and Clara.” “Congratulations
later, tell us about what you saw” Eli says. I think back to the man and how looking at him made me
feel. I shake those thoughts away and tell them about what was said about the Nightfire pack. My
father and brother both growl. Clara hugs Eli and my heart squeezes in my chest to see that they are
finally bonded.
Everyone stays for a while and speaks about the coven. “We have had no issues with vampires in the
past that I know of so I have no idea why they would be planning an attack on the pack”, my father
says. I have to stay in the pack hospital overnight even though I feel fine. Once the others leave my
mother and Rose are the only ones left. Rose is sitting on the couch in my room watching TV. My
mother walks over and brushes the hair off my face. “How are you feeling Larisa?” “I’m fine, I really
could go home mom.” She growls and I chuckle. “Fine, I’ll suffer through one night.” “Larisa, you know
you can talk to me about anything. Did you see something else that you didn’t want to talk about in
front of the others?” I debate whether to tell her about my feelings toward the man, but my need to
know what she thinks wins. “The vampire that seemed to be the leader was a little older than me.” She
nods but stays quiet. I tell her about the woman and the anger I felt. “I have no idea what it means. I
don’t know if it was my feelings or something the goddess made me feel. I have no wolf yet.” I tell her
about the voice in the darkness and what she said. She scoots in beside me and pulls me to her side. “I
don’t know all the answers but this is what I can tell you. I know people say the goddess doesn’t make
mistakes and I agree. She believes in the pairings she makes, but sometimes people are too far gone
to save. People still have free will to screw things up. If he turns out to be important to you but he can’t
see the gift the goddess gives him because he is worried about a title, power, or some other stupid
detail that isn’t important, then he isn’t worth saving. You deserve a mate that will love and respect you.
No matter what happens, your family will always be here to support you.” I wrap my arms around my
mother “thank you for being the best mother.” She kisses my forehead and I snuggle into her side. My
eyelids feel heavy again, but this time it’s sleep that takes me.
