C6 Queen?
Elias' POV
Dashing into the forest, I shifted and let my wolf, Ryder, take over. Emma barely weighed anything on my back and I could feel her body getting hotter so I easily picked up my pace.
"Call the pack doctor immediately" my sister, Isabelle barked out the moment I stormed through the doors. I headed straight for my chambers with Isabelle and my Beta, Daniel hot on my tail and set her on the bed. A guard appeared before me with a fresh set of clothes as I had shifted on my way to my bedroom. I slipped on the pair of shorts quickly and moved to sit beside her head.
"Alpha" I heard the pack doctor's voice announce his arrival beside me.
"Everyone, leave", I growled through my teeth. Isabelle opened her mouth to speak but quickly shut it when I looked in her direction before urging everyone out in front of her. It was just me, Daniel and the doctor left in the room.
"She's not okay, make her okay" I managed to say.
"But Alpha she's not…." I cut him off with a low growl. "Would you do your f*ck*ng job or do you want to lose it altogether?"
"Yes Alpha" Dr Martins said, opening his equipment box by the side of the bed. I stood up and walked to the far end of the room towards my study.
I felt a shift in the air again making me rush towards Emma.
It was almost inaudible at first but there was a crack in my mirror, then another, and another. The vase smashed just as Emma went into spasms, the doctor held her down but the spasms continued as more things were destroyed in the room.
Fear washed over me. I can't lose her too.
*Flashback*
"Theresa please, just let them take the pup out." I pleaded with my mate with teary eyes.
She was pregnant and had suddenly started experiencing strange bleeding and sharp pains in her stomach. On seeing the doctor, it turns out that the child had a sort of mid shift in the womb.
We werewolves don't normally have the ability to shift to wolf form until much later in our teenage life. Yet, here my pup was, with claws instead of tiny harmless finger nails and they were digging deep into her womb causing all the bleeding and pain.
"I'm fine Elias, I'm just a bit tired. In a few more days, our son would be born and all this will be over, I promise" she shakily lifted the back of my hand to her lips planting a warm kiss there.
"The child is eating at you Theresa, I can never forgive myself if this harms you in any way" I tried convincing her again, still holding her hands in mine. "Our child, the one we are giving life to, and we will have our child irrespective of the odds. It is the fate from the Moon Goddess" she assured me, closing her eyes.
I believed her.
The Moon Goddess lied.
That night, I lost my mate. I lost my child. I almost lost my sanity.
*End of flashback*
Emma's POV
I was greeted with blinding white light again as I opened my eyes. Was I dead? It almost looks like where I saw my mum in the dream I had. Except when I looked further into the distance, the white space fades away and I could see a thick forest that spanned out for acres.
I could hear a familiar voice in the distance among many other sounds, it was Elias. I took a breath of relief. I was not dead at least, I had to get to Elias and tell him that I was going crazy. The ground beneath me rumbled, rocks, grass and flowers filled it suddenly. The air around me picked up fast and formed tornados in about four places. What's happening? I heard the swoosh of waves rise from beside me and the trickle of water flowing into the rocks.
Suddenly there was silence and everywhere was calm. I stood up from what now appeared to be a stump from a previously cut down tree and took a look around. The once plain white and empty space was now filled with life, bursting with colors and blooming widely. I thought it was over but then the earth began to shake and the rocks rumbled. Within a blink of an eye, flames roared and took out all the plants in one swoop before going off, the skies got dark red right after. It was like an eclipse was taking place. The rocks burned red like hot metal and flames seeped from beneath it. The air smells dangerous, but for some reason I wasn't on edge and there was no panic.
It was almost like I was looking through another person's eyes. I wasn't controlling the movements, or feelings. And when my mouth opened to speak, I realized I was right.
It was my body but I was not in control of anything that was happening. "So this is what the outside world feels like. I've been looking through her eyes for as long as I can remember" I heard from my mouth. What the actual fuc….
"Cut it out wolf" I heard an approaching voice say, making me growl. Wait. Why was I growling?
Okay hold up. Wolf?? Right there and then, it felt like another switch took place and I was back in control.
"Hello Emerald" the voice called out. I looked around but was met with no one.
"Over here" I heard from down. Peering down, I was met with a palm sized creature. I stared hard at her with wide eyes. "Accept my apologies for the wolf, she doesn't know how to quite behave yet" the creatures said, flying towards my shoulder.
Is this supposed to be a fairy?!! What sort of bizarre dream is this?
I raised my hand in reflex to smack her away but retracted my hand just before it came in contact with her frame.
"What are you?" I asked, my voice dripping with curiosity.
"My name is O3, Guardian of the fae kingdom, descendant from the O lineage and I was sent here to protect and guide you" the tiny voice replied taking a defensive stance.
I gave the creature a once over, which was hard to do considering her miniature size, and burst into laughter. "Protect me?" I asked in between laughs.
"Well yes, protect you" she replied with a firm gaze.
I opened my mouth to say something but was cut off by her tiny voice, which was kind of annoying by the way.
"There is chaos ahead" she said looking around to the once beautiful garden that had now been destroyed by the flames.
"You cannot control your powers without guidance even if you tried, not to talk of you who does not even know she has powers."
"Quick! There's a lot to explain but with such little time, you're running out of oxygen in the real world. If you're not awake in the next 20 minutes, you'll be dead."
There's no word to describe the level of confusion I felt at this point.
"If you need me, call on me anytime and I'll be there. Till we meet again my queen" she said, taking a quick bow and fluttering away.
Queen? I echoed just as I was pulled back to reality.
