chapter 49
Everyone woke up and was now all sitting at the table with either pancakes or a coffee in front of them all. I watched as all of my friends as they all sat talking at one end of that table while Xander, his second and third spoke to both of his parents about his missing brother and all the details
I sat on the bench with my legs dangling over the edge and watched everyone while I sipped on my hot chocolate. Xaiden sat on his father's lab eating his food. I smile at the two of them and how they would interact with each other.
"That's the thing Xander, know one saw them come or go, it was like they all just vanished.” Dontae's mum tells Xander, tears where running down her face as her mate held her closely to his chest.
Even though Xander was not her blood son she still treated him like her very own, and it showed even now when they spoke, just how much they both cared for each other.
I watched my friends and noticed how all nine of them where staring at me with strange looks on there faces. I smiled at them to hopefully give them some reassurance that things where okay.
"Maybe a witch was involved.” Sal tells Xander, he frowns at her suggestion but gives a little nod
"Can a witch go undetected that easily?" he ask her, Kelly looks at Sal who stares at Bree, they all turn to look at him with a sad look and nodded to confirm that it was definitely possible.
"so the rogue Demon king has witches on his side.” Louisa asked a little shocked.
"Anyone gone rogue is most likely a part of his group, to be honest no one knows for sure exactly what the demon king is." Arrow comments, I lower my head and look into my cup.
"he’s a hybrid, father's a wolf mother's a witch/ demon.” I tell them without staring at any of them.
"And how exactly do you know this?" Xander's father ask with a frown. "Because she is the only one to come in contact with him." Sally tells them all, I groan at her.
"she saved a baby who's demon mother died, even sent the baby to its family. It wasn't until she almost died a few years later that she realised who the rogue king was and what he was. not many people know much about him other then he’s a demon.” raising my head I watch Sally as she stared straight faced at the old king.
I knew it was hard for her to speak about this sort of things as it brought back memories.
"Sally was a captive for three years before I found her and her sister's, after that they pledged to help me when ever I needed it." I tell them, a look of shock and pity went through everyone.
"Lilly helped save my younger sister, it's why I'm here now...For her." Arrow tells everyone, I smile softly at her.
"How do you suppose we get Dontae back Liliana?" I look at Louisa and give her a soft smile. I knew now it meant our plans would have to change.
"We take the fight to him, if you all can get people ready to fight I'd like to leave by tomorrow night.” I jump off the bench and walk around to the table to stand inbetween everyone.
"He has a big group on his side.” everyone nods and then stand to leave the room. Xaiden tugs my leg to get my attention.
"Mummy what do I do?" He ask in a excited voice. I smile down at him and then pick him up.
"you my baby boy will be playing hide and seek from the bad guys." I tell him, his eyes light up with excitement of having a game.
"Will you spray your bottle on me so I can hide?" I laughed at his wording.
"Yes I'll spray you with the no scent spray.” he knew the plan once I sprayed the no scent spray, it would last up to four days and then he'd have to spray again.
for once I was worried that I wouldn't make it back to my baby boy, but I have every intention to fight for him.
"Mummy will daddy be going with you?" I gave him a sad smile, as worry flicks in his eyes.
"Yes baby, but don't you worry cause daddy will be back before you know it." I kiss his little head, Xaiden's Little arms wrap around my neck in a tight hug.
"You have the angels watching you mummy." before I could say anything else he jumps out of my arms and runs off, I shake my head with a small smile on my lips
starting my trek through the house until I came to Xaiden's bedroom. walking into his room I head straight to his cupboard and grab out a bag.i packed a few PJ sets along with shorts and a few tops, his toothbrush, shoes and socks. a book to read and colour in.
I knew this would be hard for him but in a way I'm hoping it will teach him how to stay silent and undetected.
once I had his bag packed and ready to go, I placed it by his door for when he would need it. making my way back to the kitchen I could hear a few people talking in the lounge room area and decided to head that way.
"Do you think she will take him back?" I herd Xander ask in a sad voice. "I don't know son, to be honest I don't think she will." Came Xander's father's reply, I turn to my left at the feel of a present body and noticed Louisa beside me. a soft smile graced her lips, she points towards the kitchen and I follow behind obediently.
"You know when you left Dontae, it broke everyones heart. my son went bananas for a month afterwards, if it wasn't for Xander I dare say he would have gone on a killing spree.” she laughs at her own words and then shakes her head.
"Who knew that the one place you ran to was the one person who saved everyone else.” I frown at her for a second.
"What do you mean?" I finally ask, her words confused me but also entranced me to know more of this story.
"A week after you left Xander came around, Dontae wasn't doing to well mentally then. He and Xander had a full blown fist fight until Dontae caved and broke down in tears. He blames you for everything until Xander told him that there had to of been a good reason for you leaving and if you would return then it was best to let you run free." my mouth had dropped open in shock, they fought over something stupid and then made up. was that what a sibling relationship was like?
"I'm not surprised he would blame me for everything, I just couldn't take anymore after loosing the baby." I admit to her, sadness hit us both as we thought about the past.
"I know my boys both love you dearly and I'm glade your with Xander, but I want you to remember that you have to take care of yourself before everyone else.” I knew what she meant, Louisa had seen me go through a lot of bad with being with her son. It was now time for me to take care of what I needed for a change, not just what my son and everyone else wanted from me.
we said no more as she parted and left me to drink my drink in peace. “I'm coming for your head rogue king." I say out loud with an evil smirk on my face. this would be the last of this evil creature and I was going to succeed no matter what.
