Chapter ANA:Dreams
I roll out of bed and quickly get dressed. I make my way to our in suite kitchen and start on breakfast. As I'm finishing the bacon. The four kids run in and plop down at the table. "Good morning sunshines. How'd you all sleep." I look around the table as I place their plates down. Sage groans and drops his head on the table. Clover slowly chews on a piece of toast. While Silas wipes at his eyes.
"Good Morning Auntie Ana. I slept great." Liza chirps with a big smile before shoving bacon in her mouth enthusiastically. She seems to beam compared to the others.
"I bet you did " Clover grumbles and aggressively bits at her toast. Sage and Silas huff in annoyance. "Is everything ok guys." I look at each of them. No one answers at first. Then Silas sighs. "Elizabet cried all night. We told her over and over mommy was ok. But she insisted she died!" He rolls his eyes and crosses his arms over his chest.
"Mom pleeeeasse tell her Aunt Alexi is fine." Clover moans. I walk around the table and squat down next to a whimpering Liza. "I promise, your mommy is perfectly ok. She should be downstairs by time we get there." I give her a hug and she nods. I smile at her and push a curl behind her ear.
I stand up and clap my hands. "Now, all of you eat up and go change. Today we welcome Silas, Elizabet and Aunt Alexi back to the pack."
They all perk up and start chatting about how the day will go.
After breakfast, the kids rush to get dressed and we head down stairs to the main floor. As we round the corner into the living room. I spot Lexi sitting extremely close and cozy with Ilad.
"Well good morning you two. Don't you look well reacquainted." I move my eyebrows up and down. Alexi's face turns beet red and Ilad laughs. "You can say we had a good night." Ilad looks lovingly at Lexi.
As Lexi goes to respond, two small voices call out to her and run towards us. They stop when they see she isn't alone.
"Good morning my babies." Lexi pulls them into her arms. Their eyes never leaving Ilad. Lexi pulls back and awkwardly runs a hand on the back of her neck.
"Uh guys this is.." before she can finish both pups smile and look at each other. Ilad gets up from the couch and kneels next to them. "Hello Silas, Elizabet. It's nice to finally meet you." She smiles at them.
The twins look at each other and Liza reaches out holding her tiny had against Ilad's cheek. "You're her." She whispers and starts to bounce up and down. "Look sysy its her!" She cheers.
Silas then reaches his hands towards Ilad. But unlike his sister he wraps his arms around her neck and hugs her. "It is her. She even smells just like it." He sighs into Ilad's shoulder.
Liza then latches herself onto Ilad's other side and takes a deel breath. Ilad sits still in shock for a moment. Before she begins hugging the twins back.
A tear rolls down her cheek. "Oh this is way better then I expected." She sighs. The twins pull back and Silas wipes Ilad's tears
"Don't cry mama. We know who you are. Lilly shows us images." He says with a smile. "We dream about you too. Mila would call to us and warn us to be careful when we play and stuff." Elizabet smiles and shrugs.
I look at Lexi who sits just as shocked as me. "Did you know your wolves were communicating with their wolves?" I ask still in awe. Lexi shakes her head no and Ilad looks back and shrugs. "The only thing Mila told me is that she imprinted. She knew when they were safe and sometimes got panic attacks but wouldn't tell me why. I never figured it was this." She looks back at the twins.
They smile and run off with Clover and Sage. Raving about the fact they have two mommies now. What catches my attention are my children saying they knew. Knew what? How?
