The Last Royal Luna

I snap and see red. I don’t even feel myself pushing my magic toward the witch. My power was pissed off and was done with this battle. It used the witch’s own b***d to drown her from the inside out. She died within a few minutes, but I was already on my way over to Blake. Andrew, Koda jumped in as we ran up, was winning his battle with Nick so I had time to look over Blake. I pulled on our bond and searched his body with my mind.

“Blake? Blake, can you hear me?” I felt a wound that wasn’t healing. “What happened to you? Please keep breathing.” His chest was moving slow and shallow. That was the only thing giving me hope.

‘Found Mel. It doesn’t look good. The doctor has Alistair taking her to the emergency clinic they set up in the house.’ Edgar linked. ‘We are winning over here. How is Blake?’

‘Blakes not good. I need back up here.’ I linked him and Asher. I could feel the twins were still busy. ‘His wound isn’t healing. I think he was poisoned or silver was used.’

His biggest wound was on his right side right into the stomach. It was still pumping b***d out and his color was getting whiter by the second. I just had to hope I had enough power left to keep the rest of his b***d in place.

‘I am on my way. Asher isn’t far behind. Check the wound to see if all the weapon and pieces of silver are gone.’ Edgar sounded winded so he must have been farther away than I thought.

I closed my eyes and shut out all the noise to focus on the wound. I pushed power into the smaller wounds clotting the b***d so it would heal. The bigger wound just wouldn’t clot so I knew something had to be in there. I felt for a foreign object in his b***d and got a weird taste in my mouth. That was new but I would take it if meant saving Blake.

Two different people were getting close but I couldn’t take my focus off Blake. I was finally able to get the b***d to move the item up toward the opening of the wound. If I stopped it would fall even farther in. I would just have to kill them both.

“Ryder, behind you!” Asher yelled coming from my left.

I flung my powers to my right using the grass to grow and shoved themselves into and around the other persons legs. It grew quickly to the top going through their heart. They were dead within a minute.

“Holy s**t, Ryder. Was that you?” Edgar joined us.

“Yes, Andrew and Koda need Asher’s help to finish off Nick. I am sick of waiting.” I growled out. Almost had it. “Edgar the shard of blade that stuck inside Blake is almost out. Wrap your hand in something and get ready to rip it out. I will need to flush his b***d as soon as it’s out. I don’t have much power left.”

Asher ran off to help yelling something to Nick that didn’t sound too pleasant. I hoped they hurried but I wanted him to feel every ounce of pain. Edgar pulled the shard out once it showed itself. Now time to push the last I have into saving my most stubborn mate.

“He so owes me so many foot rubs after the worry he has caused me.” I growled out shoving the b***d back in as I cleaned it.

His color came back little by little but his breathing stayed the same. That was worrying. I needed him to fight. I needed him to win and live.

“His breathing is still bad. What should we do?” Edgar asked as he kept his eyes on us and the surrounding areas. “They have Nick down on the ground. It will be over soon.”

“Take him to the doctor. I will send the guys after they are done with Nick. Blake is stable enough to travel now.”

‘Fight, Blake. Fight for us, for our kids, for me. I need your stubborn, arrogant a*s to live so I can kick it anytime I want. I love you….Please.’ I begged in my link.

“Oh..” I felt Blake’s hand tighten on mine. He heard me. He was going to fight. “He grabbed my hand.”

I looked at Edgar with tears in my eyes and hope in my heart. He nodded and smiled. Edgar carefully picked up Edgar into a bridal hold and ran off.

I looked back toward the last of my mates who had joined me in this battle. Koda and Asher held Nick down. Andrew was limping toward him growling. I could feel the rage coming off him and the pain coming from Nick. Good, I hoped he felt everything. I just wish he had to feel all the pain and death I was feeling right now from this pointless battle.

‘Doc, Edgar is bringing Blake. I got a piece of a silver blade out of his wound on his side and cleansed his b***d but he lost so much b***d. Tell me if he needs mine and I will be there in a flash.’

‘A room is clear for him and I will let you know. Also Mel is awake and wants a report on the battle when you get done.’

I let him know I heard him before watching Andrew rip Nick’s head off. The look of shock and denial that crossed Nicks face was amazing. Andrew laughed and threw his head to the side.

“Let’s burn this b***h and bury his asses in some shit.” Andrew joked helping Koda and Asher stand up.

“Right after you three get checked out by the doctor and check in on Blake. Edgar carried him down just a bit ago. The battle is dying down and I have a phone call to make about our kids.”

“Only if you go with us and make the phone call once we are all together.” Asher stated looking tired and in a bit of pain.

“Fine, Lets get some warriors..”

‘RYDER! Is my dad with you? We can’t find Jared anywhere.’ Knox linked freaking out.

‘No, last I saw him he was with you guys.’ f**k, like we need one more person missing or seriously injured. The goddess is gonna have so much s**t to answer to.

‘Some one said they saw him head your way but then he vanished. Did someone get him? I would feel it if he was dead right?’ Kane was freaking out.

“f**k, Jared is missing. I am going to help them while you all head to get checked out. Don’t even fight me on it. You all are dead on your feet so you are useless to us until you heal even a little bit.”

I ran off before they could stop me. ‘Where have you looked? I am going to head down the way he might of came so no one would notice him.’

‘We are headed your way. The one who noticed him said he went into the woods so he was probably working his way to sneak behind Nick and help you all.’

‘I will head that way. Nick is dead so he should be coming out now if he is still hiding out.’

I ran toward the woods shifting just my nose and ears, so I had Blue’s sense of smell and hearing. There weren’t any sounds, not even of birds and other woodland creatures. That wasn’t good.

‘Alistair, keep on eye out. Asher, Andrew, and Koda should be headed there. They can’t leave until they are better. Lock them in the room with Mel. She can handle their sassy asses.’ I knew he wasn’t hurt from the way he ran back to Mel and even carried her to the makeshift clinic.

‘Heath, tell me how you are and if you know where Tyler and Mya are.’

No response. No mind block on his end and no acknowledgement that he heard me. f**k.

‘Heath…HEATH…HEEEEEEEAAAAATTTTHHHHHH.’ I was ready to start in with my annoying high-pitched voice and saying random stupid s**t in hopes he would reply.

‘We see you. We are almost there.’

I heard them running up behind me but kept on. I smelt something. It smelt like Jared but something stronger was covering it. I knelt beside a pool of b***d but the acidity was horrid.

“Smell that?” I asked the twins pointed to the place I just smelled.

They both lowered down to smell it. “f**k that is horrible. What is that?” Knox grunted as he covered his nose. Kane replicated his actions.

“It smells like Jared’s b***d but something is covering it. Like they wanted the scent diluted so maybe a vampires b***d or a spell?” I replied as I kept walking toward the next spot that smelled like Jared. “Here is another one. The smell of Jared is stronger so maybe more recent and less diluted.”

Knox came up beside me and then passed me. He was on a mission to find his dad so I understood. Kane kept his spot behind me.

“I see something.” Knox yelled taking off in a full out run. “It looks like a body or two.”

What the heck? I ran after him with Kane right beside me. Bodies? The fight didn’t extend out here, did it? We would of felt it, right? Blue nodded which made even more questions pop up.

“Its Heath, Tyler, and Mya. They are alive but barely.” Knox yelled.

I almost ran into him in my shock. “I was just linking Heath to see what was going on.” I knelt beside them and searched out their auras. They were covered in a black slime. “Dark witches got to them. Should we try to wake one of them and see if they know about Jared?”

The twins nodded. I put my hand on Heath’s chest and pulled on the black slime. It latched on to my power and tried to go into my b***d. I wanted to freak out but held back. I couldn’t handle the double trouble with me freaking out.

“Come on, Baby girl. I can’t smell my dad at all anymore.” Kane whined.

Knox shushed him and went back to bringing Mya and Tyler closer. “I am trying. This slime doesn’t want to let go.”

I grabbed Kane’s to try out an idea. I pulled on his strength and the boost made it easier to eliminate the slime. By the time I had let go of both Heath and Kane, Heath was stirring.

“Wha..t. happened?” He tried to sit up but I stopped him. “Jared? Tyler? M..m..ya? Kailey?”

“Mya and Tyler are still out. Jared and Kailey were here?” I asked before the twins could start integrating. “Do you remember what happened?

Heath took a moment to think. It wasn’t long before he tried to jump with Knox stopping him. His eyes were wide open and a growl came out.

“We were jumped. Jared and Kailey were taken. We tried to fight back but there were more than us.”

Knox and Kane both started swearing. “Did you hear name? See a car?”

“Just that they were ordered to take them while another team was taking some kids.”

I jumped up. “My kids! I didn’t have time to warn them! I need a phone!”

No one had one. I left them there to sort it out as I ran back to the house. Someone would have a phone there. I ignored everyone until I found the Alpha team pulling up.

“Roger, I need your phone now!”

He handed it over with question but stood on guard in case something was happening.

I called up Sandra. “Hello, Roger?”

“No, its me. Ryder. My babies?”

Sandra lost it and started crying on the phone. “I am so so sorry. They were taken along with Mel’s baby. We had traitors…”

I didn’t hear anything else before I shifted giving Blue the reins so I could grieve.

“f**k!” Was the last thing I heard before we passed out.
