Lila’s POV

+5 Bonus

I was shoved back into the cell like I was an animal. I couldn’t even begin to process what I was just told.

I was pregnant?

With twins??

I couldn’t be pregnant. Could I?

I was on the pill, but I knew those weren’t 100% effective. But they were supposed to be close to it. At least I thought so. I tried to always remember to take my pill in the morning, but with everything going on these last few weeks, it’s possible I could have forgotten.

How long have I been pregnant for?

I stared down at my bare belly; I was still naked. They didn’t give me any clothes and I felt incredibly exposed. I placed my hands on my belly, frowning. I didn’t feel pregnant, but I suppose if I was early on, I wouldn’t feel anything yet.

My body trembled as I ran my fingers across my skin; if she was telling me the truth, that meant my body. was no longer my own. I was fighting for the three of us now.

Twins.

Holy sh it.

Enzo was going to lose his mind. How was I going to keep this a hidden, and secret from everyone now? They’d be wondering who the father is. Not that it matters right now anyway, but assuming I’m getting out of here, and everything will return to normal, there’s no way I’ll be able to hide this from the school board.

Tiffany Prescott was going to lose her sh it.

There was a lot I wanted to do before I had any children; I at least wanted to be finished with school first. I still had a couple of years before graduation. Would I be able to still graduate and have these pups?

I guess I didn’t have a choice now; regardless, these pups were coming, and I had to do everything in my power to keep them safe.

I leaned against the cold cement wall, pressing my knees close to my chest to keep my breasts and the rest of my lady bits hidden. The last thing I needed right now was for those nasty rogue guards to cat- call me.

“Our mate will come for us…” Val whispered tiredly. I knew she was exhausted; even though the wolfsbane was seemingly enchanted to keep my wolf around, and yet make us extremely powerless, it still took a lot out of her.

She could feel everything I was feeling, and she couldn’t even hibernate to avoid it. My heart ached for her. I felt awful that she had to experience this too,

I was wrong… it wasn’t just the three of us I had to protect.

It was the four of us.

“I know…” I told her in return. “He will come for us.”

Enzo’s POV

The window disappeared in front of us as the picture faded back to a blank image of light. I stared at the window with my mouth hanging open.

Of course, I had heard of Ero’s pack. It was a faraway pack, too far for the Alpha of that pack to be in the Alpha Committee, but I knew Alpha B astien wanted him on the team anyway. But it was declined by the Alpha.

I had never been to that pack, and I had never spoken to that Alpha before. But telling from Selene’s face, she knew that Alpha very much. She sta ggered backward with her hands covering her mouth.

Xander slumped back against the cell, sliding to the ground with his legs arched and his arms resting on his knees. He looked defeated and a little ill. Probably because he had just seen his home and his mate right in front of his face.

I could tell, despite Aura promising that darkness could not see or hear the window, he was still worried that he had just doomed his entire pack.

I knew Selene wanted to ask him more questions, but she knew he wouldn’t have a chance to speak about it out loud.

“I must return to the earth,” Aura said, staring up at Selene. “There isn’t enough energy to keep my children. It is deteriorating as we speak.”

“Deteriorating?” Suddenly I was very alert as I stared at Aura. Max was also on high alert. “Is it Lila?”

She nodded.

“I’m afraid so,” she said, staring up at me. “She is alive. But her energy is weak. It’s not enough to keep my children here. They need to return to the earth, or they too will be weak. However, I will keep the shield placed a little longer. It will give you time to regroup and discuss your next plan. My children will alert you if darkness is here.”

“Thank you so much, Aura,” Selene said, bowing her head.

“I am happy to help, Luna,” she said in return, also bowing her head. “It has been most wonderful knowing you. Perhaps we will speak again someday.”

“Maybe so,” Selene said in return.

On that note, Aura glowed so brightly that this time, I shielded my eyes. When the light went out, Aura

was gone.

“But we still don’t know where Lila is,” I said impatiently. Max wasn’t going to remain calm for long; he was on the edge again, wanting to get back to Higala to search for our mate and I was about ready to forfeit my control over to him.

Selene was still staring at Xander with an expression I couldn’t read.

“Let him out,” she murmured.

Chapter 318 Who Let Her Out

I snapped her a look, but she spoke again, and this time more loudly.

“Let. Him. Out,”

I didn’t hesitate; with what we knew about him now, there was no point in keeping him locked up. Lila was right; he was trying to prepare her for something. He wasn’t a danger. I hated to admit it, but I think Xander truly was coming from a good place.

If roles were reversed, I wouldn’t have risked Lila’s life or my pack either.

I sighed and grabbed the key to his cell. When I unlocked it, I was surprised he hadn’t moved.

“You can come out,” I muttered, turning my back to him.

Selene rushed into the cell and threw her arms around him, surprising me. I watched as she sobbed, holding onto him like her life depended on it.

if “I know you don’t want to talk about it… but we are protected for the time being. They will tell us darkness is around. I’d like us to use this time to speak freely. We are going to do what we can to protect your home and your love.”

He held her back, and for the first time since we captured him and tortured him, I saw real pain in his

eyes.

After a moment, Selene stood to her feet, bringing Xander with her and then she turned to me.

“We don’t have long,” she said to me, wiping the tears from her eyes. “We can’t stop this dark curse from coming. It’s going to make us powerless. We need to band together.”

“We need to find out where they took Lila,” I told her for the final time. “We have to get back to Alpha Jonatha’s pack.”

“I’m sure that as shole had something to do with it,” Max growled from within me.

“Darkness has her,” Selene said between her teeth, and I could see the anger in her eyes. Not directed at. me though, it was directed toward the darkness and those who took her daughter from her. “And wel already know who conjured darkness.”

“Jazzy…” I said out loud, mimicking her thoughts.

She nodded slowly.

“So, if we find Jazzy, we might be able to find Lila,” I said, now understanding where her mind was heading.

Selene was right; we are getting closer to finding Lila without physically searching Higala. I need to learn. to trust her more. She had that determined look in her eyes that I have come to know and adore. Lila often had that same look in her eyes whenever she thought of an idea as well and I wondered where she had got it from.

Now I knew.

“I’m going to call Ba stien and have him return here. We can keep some of the warriors on patrol to see if they can pick up her scent. But I don’t think we should tell him everything over the phone. Especially

now that we know the lives that are at stake,” she said, glancing at Xander, who gave her a small and somber nod. “This area is a safe zone for right now, so we can tell B astien everything once he gets here.”

“He will need to hurry then because we don’t know how long we have the shield for,” Xander said in

return.

“In that prophet, Eloise saw a war,” Selene reminded us. “She also saw us fighting in it. This means regardless of what we do… it’s going to break out. All we have to do now is be prepared.”

Xander looked around as if he worried darkness was lurking around the corner.

“Aura is giving us time to speak; we are safe, Xander. You don’t need to worry,” Selene told him, placing a hand on his shoulder.

“I swore an oath to protect my pack,” he said, standing tall and proud. “I can’t risk their lives, but my Alpha trusts you with his life. So, I trust you as well.”

“Whatever you need to say, say it now, and then let’s get moving. I’m not sticking around here much longer. My wolf is going crazy.” I growled.

“Agreed,” Selene said. “We need to prepare everyone we can for this war, and I need to get B astien up to date. So, if there’s anything you need to say, please speak, Xander.”

He met her eyes and then gave her a small nod.

“There’s something else that I didn’t have the chance to show you through the window,” Xander said, staring between the two of us.

“What is it?” I urged impatiently.

“How that dark witch escaped her cell,” he said slowly, meeting my eyes. “Or rather…. Who let her out.”
