Everly's POV
Walking around the garden with Jorge by my side outside I took a deep breath. It was a little warmer today. I didn't have to wear a sweater or jeans.
A nice shirt with some random art on it and some khakis with a pair of sneakers. I was simpme like that I suppose.
"Mommy, did you Iron Man saved the universe?" He told me. He has been on and on about this guy named Iron Man, along with Captian America, Thor, Black Widow, etc.
He caed them The Avengers and I still had no damn clue what he was talking about. Was it a band or something? Did this Iron dude save the world with his music?
"Did he? How?" I asked him.
"By snapping his fingers! Like this!" He put his long tinger and thumb together and tried to snap only it didn't work.
"That...sounds amazing, Jorge.!" I told him, not really sire how to answer him at all.
The sound a crying baby and alot of shushing entered our ears as Jorge and I exited the garden nearing the back entrace by the lake I was at the other day.
"Josiah, nice to see you again!" I smiled as I greeted him.
He gave me a smile. He held his hand out to shake it. "You too Miss Everly." I took his and shook it, his hands were warm and soft but were nothing like Milo, Michael or Gabriel's.
"Is this little Jenny?" I asked him as I looked at the litrle girl in his arms. Her little cheeks were red and eyes were puffy.
"Yes ma'am. She hasn't felt good for a few days and wont feelt good either." Once her was finished talking she began coughing. I knew that cough and didn't know how I knew it.
"Well... that sounds like a whooping cough. Try going in the bathroom with her and turn your shower on as hot as it can get and just stand i. There with her in the steam. Or gwt in you car and roll all the windows down, let her be exposed to the fresh air at night."
"That it?" I nodded my head. "There really isn't much you can do for it. It just has to run it's course!"
He let out a sigh. He had dark circles under his eyes. He was also dressed in his everyday clothes so he must be off work today.
"Would you like to join us for a stroll?" I asked him.
He looked at me and at Jorge who was using a stick as a sword and attackikg a tree with it.
"I would love to, thank you!" He said i I smiled at him.
As we began walking his daughter began crying again, not loud like she was before but loud enough to the point I could tell it was beginning to irritate her father.
"Come on baby girl, it's alright. Daddy is right here." He moved her to a different arm bur she began wiggling, wanting down.
He groaned and set her on the ground, once her feet hit the grass she began crying even louder.
"I give up!" He threw his hands in rhe air.
I chuckled before squatting down and brushing some hair out of the crying girls face. "Hi sweet girl, what's got you so upset?" I asked her softly. I knew she couldn't answer me but sometimes you just have to be nice to them and treat them like they're feelings matter too.
Her crying eventually stopped so I wiped away her tears and she just stared at me. Her little hands then reached up and grabbed mine and she smiled.
"You could have just told me you were having a mommy issue, Jenny!" Josiah said a little upset that she was smiling at me where ahe screamed at him.
"It isn't that, babies can sense irritation and stress when someone is caring for them. I'm not saying you would ever hurt her but she knew you were at your wits end and I was a calm energy compared to yours." I told him and lifted the cute curly haired baby up aand stood.
I looked up to see where Jorge was, he was still attacking his tree, perhaps a bigger one I couldn't tell.
The moment I was up and standing, someone yelled my name with what dounded like a growl behind it. It made me shiver and goosebumps rise all over my skin.
"Everly!" I wasn't sure who it was, but the heat of their body as they pressed against my back almost made my knees give out.
"I have been looking everywhere for you! You k ew we wanted to talk to you!" Ah, ut was Michael his voice was dripping with irritation,and his chest vibrated as he spoke.
"No need! I told Milo the other night i wasn't leaving." I smiled at Jenny before offering her back to Josiah. He took her frok me and walked away seeing as Michael was mad at me because I walked away from them.
Michael gripped my upper arm tightly. "Jorge, vamos adentro ahora!" (Jorge, we are going inside now) Michael called out to Jorge.
I looked over to see him throw his stick down and run over to us. I try to pull my arm from Michael, the odd tingling se sensation his touch was causing me to feel weird.
"Let me go, Michael!" I snap at him trying to pry his hand from my arm. But his hold never wavers.
His hold wasn't painful, but just tight enough to where it would bruise but tight enough to where I could not make him let go. "Mikey, is everything alright?" Jorge asked him.
Michael looked down at him. Jorge was looking at his hand on my arm, he then looked at Michael with worry in his eyes. "Everything is alright. We just want to talk to her and she didn't."
I rolled my eyes as i waslked a few steps behind him.
A couple minutes later we arrived at pur quarters, Jorge ran off in the dining room where i could small food. Michael and I walked into the living room where he had me sit in a chair. I crossed my arms not wanting to be here.
Michael sat down next Milo who was sipping on some tea. Gabriel was looking at photos while shaking his head, I could feel his brewing anger from where I sat across the room.
"I was hoping by giving you a couple of days you would have changed your mind. I stand corrected on that it seems." Milo said as he leaned forward and setting his tea down on the coffee table.
"And I told you, I was not leaving. I don't know anyone, Milo!" I told him looking over at him. "I don't really know you three, who is to say I leave with you guys and you all are the real threat to me? That you are the ones who stole my baby and have her locked away someplace?" I told them aggravation seeping into me because they couldn't see my reson behind why I didn't trust anyone. Especally the last people to see my child.
"We didn't take her!" Gabriel growled out bitterly. I rolled my eyes at him and looked away from him deciding to look out the window I was next to.
"We are ALL going back home yogether. No if, ands or buts about it!" I snapped my head towards Gabriel his nostrils flared like he was surpressing his anger with me. Well he can suppress it all he wanted, I was not leaving.
"I'm sorry, but who made you the boss of me?" I looked around looking for the person that told him he could tell me what to do. I looked back at him and stood up slowly and gave him the coldest gaze I could muster.
I felt this powerful energy emit out of me, it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. "I don't know who we were before, but I hope I didn't listen to you with how you just spoke to me. You do not order me around like you are my Superior or something, Gabriel!" I snapped at him.
He stood up an angry snarl leaving his mouth as he did. "It's like you never f*****g lost your memory at all. Still as stubborn as ever, and you always question me when I tell you to you to do something."
He just admitted to telling me to listen to him and follow them some place I had never been. I did not trust them and he wanted me to leave this heavily guarded place? Yeah no thanks!
"I wouldn't have to do that if you were f*****g nicer to me when you tell me to do something!" I told him, my hands turning into fists.
My head began to hurt for some reason but I ignored it. His eyes I could see clearly weren't their normal peircing grey color, but a bright golden amber color.
My vision flickered as I rembered something, it made me loose my focus on how angry I was at Gabriel and just stare off blankly.

"Hey, look at me. You can't fight all of my battles for me." I snapped at him and he growled again. "Being a Princess and a Luna comes with it's risks, Gabriel. I can handle myself. And if that means going through you to prove it, I will."
He got into a charging position and I readied myself for his attack, I took a deep breath.
He began charging and right before he got to me I outstretched my hands and used my Air and Light power to push him away.
It knocked him away from me and caused me to fall, even some pack members that were in the front of the circle had fallen down too.
*****
I felt hands on my face so I blinked a few times and my vision cleared. I took a small step closer towards Gabriel so I can take in his scent. His hands still cupping my face, as I move closer, his hands move back and into my hair.
"Hibiscus," I murmured to myself. One of his hands left my hair and went down to my chin and lifted my gaze up to meet his. He looked over my face with a worried expression.
"Where did you go?" He asked me.
"I am not sure." I looked down at my hands thinking that what I just remembered made me seem like a freak.
"There was a wolf!" I felt him tense up a bit and it made me look up at him again. "He was such a beautiful wolf too, his white fur was so soft when he rubbed against my face." Gabriel seemed surprised for a moment but then he smiled down at me.
He probably thinks I am loosing my mind.
I remember seeing such a wolf so vividly that it made me wonder if that is why I have the tattoo I have on my thigh? But what about the one on my back? That one just made no sense to me.
"Come with us?" He asks and I pull my bottom lip between my teeth as I turned my gaze downwards. The offer sounds very tempting, my body and heart are telling me to go but my brain is telling me to stay.
"I can't, I have to stay here." I told him nodding my head. We will find Diana, and I will be here when we do. So I cannot leave.
"Your parents will call us if the trakers or Guard find something!" Michael says coming up on my right. "We will come back if they find her, sunflower." He brushed a peice of hair behind my ear and I had to stifle from making any noises as both his and Gabriel's skin touching me makes my body feel like it was lit on fire.
"So will you?" Gabriel asks me again and I close my eyes when he removes his fingers from my chin and brought it down just under my brest. My n*****s harden just knowing his hand was in such close proximity.
I cleared my throat about to answer him when somebody on my left grabs my hand and runs it beneath their shirt, I drag my nails down his perfect abs as they moved my hand lower. A whimper escaped me and my eyes parted. I shook my head at Gabriel not trusting my voice as the three of them teased me.
"We'll see about that." Michael whsipered next to my ear, his hot breath fanning my cheek making me shudder. He moved his lips down to my neck where this certian mark lays that makes my body tingle whenever I touch it.
I hear something in my head call out his name but it wasn't me or my voice. He pressed his forehead to the side of my head while my eyes stayed glued to Gabriel as his golden eyes danced over my features.
"Listen to her. Let her tell you what to do, you may not remember but she does. That's why you keep getting fragments when someone you feel deeply for is near." He said and I inhaled deeply to try and clear my thoughts.
Gabriel tugged on my hair lightly and I felt my body hum, answering some type of call, but it wasn't for him it was for the man standing to my right, I looked over at him and his eyes opened when he felt my gaze on him.
It wanted them, all three of them. But for the moment it craved his. He leaned forward his lips brushing over mine. "Hey daddy!" I jumped and removed myself away from Michawl.
Removing all of their hands away from my body and stepping as far away as I could from them just as Jorge came around the corner from the hallway.
I decided I was finished talking and was going to leave it at that when Milo spoke up as I went to turn around. "We aren't finished talking, Everly." He told me and I looked back at him, his muscles tense and his jaw was set.
I ignored him and walked out and back out of the room only for Elliot to spot me. "You are going to get me fired if you keep eluding me." He mutters to himself.
