“And that was how she found out! You don’t expect me to lie to her!!.” Yennefer narrated the story to him.
Helios sighed and walked around for a while.
“What the hell do we have to do?!.” Helios asked.

Yennefer’s POV
I knew Alora found her mother in such a state but I had no choice!, I am trying to bring her back to life, awakening her from her coma but what I couldn’t and wouldn’t do is keep the poor child away from her mother!.
If I succeed in regaining her consciousness I don’t want her to lose her trust and hope in life when her very own child doesn’t know her.
Helios was and still is trying to protect his child but I am trying to protect my niece as well.
“Yennefer!!.” I looked at my brother who slightly shook me. I didn’t need to speak for him to know what I had in mind. “What next?!.” He asked.
“First of all!, get packing and..”
“But she doesn’t want to leave!.” Helios told me with a worried expression.
“Leave that to me!!.” I replied.
She’s my little Lycan!!, she may be growing but I am still the one who raised her.I walked to the balcony where I could hear her and Aiden.
I stood leaning on the door frame while watching them.
“Is it time?!.” Aiden asked, he was still staring at the waterfall just like Alora was.
Alora turned around, she sighed and walked towards me.
“Why do we have to leave?!.” Alora asked me.
“Because you aren’t safe here!.” I told her.
“I am!!.” She protested. “I have you!, daddy and uncle Aiden!!, and don’t forget mummy!!.” Alora replied.
“Mummy wants you to leave as well!.” Aiden told us.
“She does?!.” Alora asked.
“Yes!.” I told her with a smile.
Alora’s cheeks turned red from smiling too wide, she smiled till her eyes were smiling at me, I couldn’t help but smile as well. I found Aiden smiling at Alora.
“Come we hurry!!.” I told them, Alora ran in front of us, Aiden smiled and pulled me back.his smile immediately changed into a frown!.
“What do you have planned?!.” He asked me.
I pushed him, my brothers were both Alpha’s, born in a royal family!, it was easy for me to act and as well be one.
I growled at him in anger. She’s his mate! No doubt about that but he is my brother who keeps pushing me to the wall.
“My plan!!, is to get that little girl out of here safely!!, you know why we are doing this so don’t act like you have no idea !!” I told him with a stern tone and then walked out on me.

Yennefer stood at the door trying to calm herself first, she raised her hand, she folded it into a fist and tried to knock but she seemed to. It is able to.
Yennefer took a breath, she went ahead and knocked, but before her hand got off the door, it came open. Yennefer took a step in and looked around.
She sighed when she saw Alora, Yennefer smiled and walked into the room, she slammed the door in Aiden's face, she sat on Aloras bed watching her pack her stuffed animals, Yennefer got on her feet and helped her pack.
With every box she finished she pushed them out of the room, it didn’t take long before they were done boxing everything in Alora’s room. Alora stared at her empty room with a sad look on her face, she walked out of the room and into her fathers arms who could tell how sad his daughter was leaving the house she grew up in.
“We’re gonna come visit!.” Helios told her and lifted her off the ground.
Alora nodded her head at him and hugged his neck, her head dropped on his shoulders and her eyes closed with tears running down.
Aiden stood behind with sad eyes and a broken beast inside of him.
“We should leave immediately!.” Yennefer said and earned growls from both Helios and Aiden.
Alora was still sobbing on her father’s shoulders.
“Let’s go!.” Alora said.
Yennefer smiled, Aiden was worried he could still tell she was sad.
“Help mummy pack!.” Alora completed her sentence that left every one of them speechless.
Aiden looked at Yennefer who stared back at him blankly.
“Mummy will stay back!.”Helios told her.
“No!!.” Alora yelled and began to kick and cry.
“Alora, it's best if she stays back and recovers!.” Aiden added.
“Then we all stay back!.”
Helios was short of words and so was Yennefer, Aiden sighed when he realized they were gonna make him do the convincing. He took a step closer, carried her like a baby she is and walked around.
“Are we not going to mummy??.” Alora asked them if he walked in the wrong direction.
“We are going for a walk!.” He said.
Alora did not speak or move, but her eyes did all the talking. Aiden couldn’t say no to her and decided to take her to the garden.
^^^
Yennefer and Helios got into an argument the moment Aiden and Alora left. Helios wasn’t comfortable with moving out of his Pack house but then again he did want to protect his daughter at all times.
He knew if the enemy were to lay their hands on his daughter both him and his kind will surely go down the drain!!, it was like holding the key to your destruction in your hands!, even after knowing this is what your enemy need to destroy you!!, you still keep it save.
“You are breaking her little heart!!.” Helios whispered trying his best to make sure Alora didn’t hear them.
Took step closer and gave him a hard stare, her eyebrows clenched and her lips twisted.
She exhaled before speaking.
“Do you want to break her heart now!!?, or let her die later?!.” Yennefer asked.
She stared at his face for his expression, when she saw his facial expression had changed she smiled and laughed.
“You really do want a dead daughter!!.” She told him.
Helios was about to speak when she pushed him back, interrupting him and continuing.
“I will not let my niece die because her father couldn’t leave the comfort of his pack!.” Yennefer yelled at him.
“Well she will be heartbroken when she finds out her morather can’t come along!!.” Helios replied
“Take her out of here!!, they will come for her soon!!.” Yennefer said, trying to make her brother understand.
“And I will be here to protect her!!. I am just worried she would find out her mother is dead!.” Helios said and almost fell to the ground.
A breezy tone was heard a few steps away, sounding like Alora but the coldness of their voice was enough to make the Lycan in Helios whimper like it was in pain, he shook his head and looked at who spoke.
And then again she repeated her statement. “I was dead…”
At the sighed of her both Yennefer and Helios froze. After a while Helios took the first step, he moved closer, his eyes wandered around her body till their eyes met.
Her soft eyes smiled at him and he smiled back at her though he was still in shock.
“How?!.” He went on to ask though he asked the same question. “How?!, are you alive?!.”
“I thought she was just sleeping?!.” Alora blurted, she looked at both her parents with suspicion.
Helios nodded at her and said. “Yes she was just sleeping but…” he paused and went on. “We couldn’t wake her up!!, you….”
“I took her to the garden!.” Aiden informed them. “Before you get mad at me!!.”
“Why would I?!!.” Helios asked.
“You saved my wife!!.” Helios cheered.
“How did you save her?!.” Yennefer asked.
“I wanted to go see mummy one more time before we left…….”
FLASH BACK•••••••
Alora and Aiden walked into the garden, Alora ran to where her mother laid just like the other times she came to visit, she had a new dress on, her hands were placed on her stomach, one on top of the other.
Alora climbed and laid on her mother.
“Why won’t you wake up?!.” Alora asked her with tears streaming down her eyes. “Why won’t you wake up?!.” Alora asked again.
After a while of repeating the same question, she became silent with tears still running down her eyes like a waterfall.
“I wish you were here!!.” Alora murmured.
Aiden stood at a far end watching her with a gloomy face.
“Maybe you could have made Daddy change his plans to leave!!.” Alora said.
“ I hope you can hear me!!, I need you mummy!.” Alora cried.
Aiden walked closer, he moved fast and pulled her up. Alora struggled for a while and then she laid her head on his shoulders. They both walked out of the garden when they heard a cracking sound, like the building was breaking.
Aiden turned around to see a woman who flung him across the garden and grabbed the child with his arms.
After that moment she became weak and went back to being a human.
