(Alfie's POV)
My brother and I decided to stay in bed with Adelia tonight. Even though she's already sleeping we can still feel her emotions. It's like her mind won't shut off. She feels lonely, abandoned, scared and worthless. Everything was fine till her party yesterday within two days she has shifted for the first time, learned she's developing powers, lost her best friend and been rejected. She's only nine. Hell I couldn't handle that at my age of seventeen, how is a nine year old suppose to. If her emotions keep being up and down her three other protectors will find her quick. They must be worried about her. I keep thinking till my mind shuts off to allow me to sleep. Hopefully school tomorrow is a better and brighter beginning for her.
(Unknowns POV)
Where is she? I can feel her but I can't find her. Her emotions are all over the place. I keep teleporting to different places all around the world hoping to sense her. She needs me how do I get to her? I'm draining myself of all my energy. I'm going to have to stop for the night and rest. Hopefully I can find her tomorrow. I will kill anyone who has hurt her. Does she ever sleep? It's like her emotions never shut off. Okay checking into the motel I finally have a room. I lay in my bed and think. Where are you? Moon Goddess help me find her. She needs me. It's like her mind is calling to me with or without her even knowing. Time to try to rest. I close my eyes and drift to sleep.
(Adelia's POV)
I wake up trying to stretch, but instead I'm locked down by to heavy bears, I try to wiggle my self out but can't. Who can sleep through so much movement. I turn to my left and right and see Alfie and Alec. Oh no, you can't wake them up without mommy or a bucket of water. They are heavy sleepers. I have to pee and what's today? Oh no, it's Monday I got to get ready for school. I decide to scream. That's my best option I think.
"AHHHHHHHHHH MOMMMY, DADDY HELPPPPPPPP AHHHHHHHHHH" I scream as loud as I can.
Within seconds Mommy, Daddy, Adam and Aron rush in my room out of breath. My mommy is in her robe half wet, my daddy is in a towel soaked, I think they just got out of the shower. Ewww. My brothers are half naked still in pajamas. Now I feel bad. They are all panting heavy.
"Are you okay? What happened?" They all scream at the same time.
"Ouch my ears" I whine. My family looks sad for hurting my sensitive ears. "The bears won't get off me mommy and I have to pee."
My family starts laughing hysterically. I start to pout and give my puppy dog eyes and that gets them all to stop laughing and looking at me, guilty of their actions now. Aron comes on my left side and Adam on my right. They count to three and roll the twins off me right on to the floor. I hear them groaning but I jump up and land in Daddy's arms.
"Bathroom daddy I have to pee." I whine. Daddy chuckles and carries me to the bathroom. "There you go princess. Get ready for school after okay?" Daddy says. I nod and smile at him. He smiles back and leaves the bathroom.
"Not cool sis." I hear the twins yell from the other side of the door while the rest of my family is chuckling. I try to stiffle a giggle. "Sorry I had to pee." I yell back. I hear them groan and leave my room. I finish going potty and then jump in the shower. I love the hot water. When I'm done washing I get out dry off and put lotion on. I think back to Sage while looking in the mirror. I don't care if they think I'm fake, I look amazing I have perfect sun kissed skin with my long white hair with violet and icy blue highlights and bright icy blue eyes with violet rings. I'm beautiful and perfect the way I am. I walk to my closer and pick my violet sundress and white flats for school. Once I'm fully dressed I run down the stairs to go have Breakfast. I smell pancakes and bacon. Yay.
"We told you no running princess." Aron yells.
"Do you wanna fall and break your neck." Adam says while I get to the island in the kitchen to eat. I sit down smiling to my brothers. "Sorry" I say as I stick a piece of bacon in my mouth. Adam and Aron chuckle at me.
"What's so funny boys?" Daddy asks as he walks in the kitchen.
Adam decides to answer, "Watching princess try to apologize while shoving bacon in her mouth." He says while smiling daddy chuckles and mommy giggles while walking in.
"I told you no talking with your mouth full young lady." mommy scolds me while trying not to giggle.
"You know you can't yell at princess," daddy says while peeking up at mommy and giving her a kiss on her cheek. She sighs. Daddy has got her there. Neither of them could ever yell at me.
"We have to talk Adelia. Don't let anyone get to you today at school. Don't let anyone know you have shifted. We have to keep this a secret. If you feel overwhelmed find the twins, okay?" Daddy says.
"Yes daddy" I say while smiling. My family loves me.
I'm sure you are all wondering how I can find my brothers, I'm only nine and should be in 4th grade while the twins are seventeen almost eighteen and they should be seniors. Well your right the twins are seniors but so am I. I am super smart. I started kindergarten at two, then they put me in 6th grade at three and i went up from there. Been with the twins since. Probably another reason Sage is jealous we hung out after school but not during because she's only in 4th grade. The Barbies are thirteen and in 8th grade but the school is K through 12 so all grades are in one school. So I always walk Sage to her classes. The twins finally come down to the kitchen.
"I'm happy you finally decided to Grace us with your presence." Daddy says to the twins, in amusement. They just nod towards daddy.
"Let's go princess we are going to be late for school." The twins say at the same time while grabbing granola bars. I jump off the stool and kiss daddy, mommy, Aron and Adam goodbye.
"Goodbye princess, Have fun." They all say and with that i follow the twins to their red Ferrari. Hopping into the passenger seat because they always say a princess doesn't sit in the back. I play with the radio while we start heading to school, I find Savage Love on and decide to sing to it. The ride to school is about ten minutes so I only got to listen to one other song called I believe I can fly before we pulled into the school parking lot. I got out of the car and started walking into the school with my brothers. I hope today goes fine I think while crossing my fingers. My brother's place their hands on my shoulders probably feeling my anxiety. The first person I see when I walk in is Sage. I decided to try to patch up our friendship. I wave off my brothers and walk towards Sage.
"Hey Sage. I thought we could talk we have been friends for eight years I don't want to lose our friendship. I am willing to forgive what you said. Want to walk to classes together?" I ask, hopefully. Sage looks at me like she doesn't even know me. That hurts. The barbies walk up behind her and I see Ashton with his arm around Bella's shoulder. Oh no, double hurt.
"Bage is this freak bothering you? We can call an exterminator to deal with the pest." Bella says while the other barbies and Sage laugh.
"Who's Bage?" I ask to Sage and Bella while looking between them, clearly confused.
"I am" Sage says proudly while smiling.
"You changed your name for the barbies? Why would you do that just to be accepted by them? It's not worth it. Your so much smarter than that." I say with hurt and sadness in my heart for Sage.
Sage and the barbies are pissed by what I just said. Sage and Bella shove me while Ashton sticks his foot out to help them knock me down. I fell and hit my head pretty hard on the tile floor. I touched the back of my head and felt wetness when I looked at my hand it was all red. I was deffently bleeding. My vision was blurry and my head hurt. They were laughing at my expense. I was so angry, next I know all FOUR of the barbies, that now includes Sage or should I say Bage, and Ashton went flying into the lockers while I was still laying on the ground. My head hurts so much I kept going in and out of consciousness. Suddenly I feel Alec's presence and I am lifted into his arms. He started carrying me to the car with Alfie behind me. I am trying so hard to stay awake. Alfie holds ice to the back of my head while Alec drives us home. I started to wonder how they all flew back into the lockers but before I can figure out an answer I pass out.
(Alec's POV)
What the hell happen? We were gone for five minutes until we felt her emotions of betrayal, pain, hurt and full out rage. I saw her fall and hit her head before I could reach her I felt her anger and then saw Sage, the three barbies and Ashton fly into the lockers. Then I felt the throbbing pain in her and my brother and I rushed to her side to get her out of there. I scoped her up in my arms and headed to my car. She already has enough credits to graduate high school. All of last year and this year she has been taking college level courses. I glance at Alfie as he applies more pressure on her head with the ice. That's when I realized she passed out. Mom and dad are going to kill us for letting this happen. We shouldn't have trusted her alone with Sage. Even though I knew she just wanted her friend back.
"Alfie mom and dad are gonna kill us. How are we suppose to be her protectors when we let little kids do this to her?" I ask Alfie, but I feel like I'm asking myself this.
"Alec calm down. We will figure this out. She's our Goddess, princess, sister, friend and savior. We can protect her better than anyone else." Alfie says.
"She passed out Alfie." I sigh out.
"Oh Shit." Alfie murmurs.
I hope your right Alfie because if we can't protect her everyone is going to die from this war I thought to myself. Our wolves explained everything to us the first time we shifted. Of course no one told us she would shift so young. We just knew we were two out of five of her protectors and that she is going to save us all from the great war. Also that her true mother is the goddess and her true father is the evil werewolf king.
I pull into the driveway as my dad and Aron are walking out. Looks like they are headed to meet the Alpha. They look at my car confused then it seems they noticed Adelia passed out in the passenger seat because they both looked shocked then petrified and then quickly jumps to rage as they run lightening speed to the passenger door. They open the door gasping at all the blood. Aron lifts her up and Alfie climbs out along with myself. Alfie has blood all over his hands, face and neck. I, on the other hand, am soaked in blood from my shoulders to my waist from carrying her. Dad screams for Mom and Adam. When Adam comes out first he looks pale as a ghost as he sees the blood. Dad tells him to call the pack doctor but he seems frozen in spot and mom finally sees Adelia and is on her knees crying. It breaks my heart.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED? HOW DID THIS HAPPEN TO OUR PRINCESS? STOP STARING ADAM AND GET THE PACK DOCTOR." Dad bellows in his beta voice. I don't think he realized he was using it.
I mindlinked doctor Lee telling him it's urgent and what happened, he got here within minutes. We took her to the living room and laid her on the couch with her still in Aron's arms. Doctor Lee stitched her head, gave her a blood transfusion of 0+ from me and Alfie, thank goddess all her protectors are the same blood type as her. Then he gave her a few shots and told us she could sleep for a few days but should be fine within a week. I hope she wakes up soon. I take her hand in mine and lay on her belly praying to the Moon Goddess.
(Unknown POV)
I felt her powers again. I am so close but her emotions and pain are hurting me. I end up on my knees from all the pain within a half hour it's like all the pain is gone and her emotions are silent. Did she get knocked out? Is she dead? No no I can still feel her heart beat. I have to move faster and get to her quickly. Just wait for me I am coming and when I get there no one will hurt you again. This I promise.
-2 Days Later-
(Aron's POV)
No one in my family has left Adelia's side. We moved her to her bed after we cleaned up all the blood. Dad had to force the twins to shower telling them they will scare Adelia when she wakes up, if she wakes up is what we are all thinking though. Doctor Lee had to come back and give her an IV with nutrients so her body can heal probably with her still not waking up. The door bell has rung everyday but no one is willing to leave her to answer it. As if my thoughts conjured it the door bell rings on cue. Dad and mom sigh. Everyone has bags under our eyes for not sleeping for two days straight.
"Go get the door Aron," Dad says, semi sternly, semi tiredly.
"No" I reply without my eyes even leaving Adelia.
It sounds like whoever is at the door let themselves in. We heard the front door open and shut with foot steps heading to princess's room. Adam, dad, Alec and Alfie get into attack mode. When the door opens everyone but Alec and Alfie calm down. It's just Alpha Ryan, his Luna and their two sons. Alec and Alfie won't stop growling. What is going on with them?
"Stand down" Dad says angry at the twins but to exhausted to use his beta voice. He sighs when the twins growling just grow louder.
"It's okay, they have every right to be growling" Alpha Ryan says to my father. What happen to give them the right to growl at the Alpha's family?
"THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO GROWL AT A SUPERIOR FAMILY" Dad yells.
The Alpha sighs, "They are growling at Ashton, so they do. Right Ashton? Don't you have something to say?"
I think we are all confused at this point except the Alpha's family and the twins. Ashton rolls his eyes and looks at the floor, "I'm sorry for what I took part in."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Dad says through gritted teeth. The Luna looks ashamed and mouths I'm sorry to my mom. Mom goes and hugs Luna Marie and rubs her back with tears still staining her face.
The Alpha decides it's time for him to speak, "Ashton go sit in the car. We are still trying to figure out your punishment," Ashton sighs and looks sadly at Adelia and walks out of the room. "I'm so sorry about my son. I can't believe he would hurt his own mate, I guess I didn't teach him right." The Alpha says sadly.
"WHAT?!?!" My dad bellows out. Well this is shocking, we of course had no idea. We all glare at the twins.
The twins look guilty, "Listen dad, Adelia just wanted Sage back as a friend so she went to talk to her. When we came back the barbies and Sage were being mean to her and Ashton was there holding Bella. We saw Bella and Sage push her and Ashton kicked his leg out to help which made her off balance and hit her head. We are sorry we didn't tell you, we figured it was up to Adelia to tell if she wanted to, so we wanted to wait for her to wake up." The twins say together in a hush tone. Probably to ashamed they couldn't stop it from happening.
"I'm so sorry for what our son did and the girls. Their families have been put on probation and sentenced to Omega cleaning for a month." the Luna says while crying.
"Oh my poor princess. Alpha she is doing college course so we have decided to let her finish them at home. She will not be going back to school, same goes with the twins." Dad says sternly. He should be requesting this but I think Dad is to upset to phrase it right. Thank Goddess the Alpha is his best friend.
"I agree and accept your request. She's safer here with her family." Alpha Ryan says sounding exhausted.
A tiny angelic voice whispers out, "It's okay daddy, I'm right here. Don't be angry or sad anymore. I love you Daddy." Adelia whispers, her eyes blinking slowly open.
"ADELIA" We all scream.
"Don't yell" She whispers while covering her ears. We laugh and cry while hugging her tight to us.
(Adelia's POV)
Daddy sounds so upset and angry talking to the twins and Alpha Ryan. What is going on? Why can't they just let me sleep in peace? Can't they talk somewhere else? I hear glimpse of everything. Is That Ashton too? Oh the Alpha told him to leave. I wonder if he got in trouble? Do they know how they flew into the lockers? I would love to know.
'My daughter it's time for you to get up. You have a guest showing up. Your next protector is desperately trying to find you. But she can't without you waking up. Your body has called for her. You unlocked your second power when you got angry the other day. That's how you made everyone fly backwards. It's called Telekinesis. You can move things with your mind without moving your body. It's to protect yourself. Wake up my daughter.'
Yes Mother. I wake up and try to calm daddy down. I can feel a new person coming close, is it my other protector? I sit up and see my family hugging me while crying and laughing. " You have been out for 2 and a half days" mommy says while smiling sadly.
"It's okay mommy. I'm fine now." I try to reassure her with a smile. At least my head feels better. At that moment my window flys open and in comes a beautiful women. Wow. Everyone but the twins look shocked. She has long black shiny hair and golden eyes with beautiful dark skin. She has a white crescent moon on her forhead. She's gorgeous.
" Hello my name is Dara, I am a special witch over 200 years old." She kneels down in front of me. " I am your witch protector my lady" She says while smiling at me. I smile back at her.
"I am Adelia Goddess Willow. Nice to meet you Dara." I say.
"What is going on here" The Alpha bellows.
The twins stand up in front of me, "Princess is the Goddess's daughter. She has five protectors. We are her two wolf protectors, Dara is her witch protector. She has two more who have not shown up yet. One fairy and one vampire. She is to save us all from the war that is brewing." The twins say at the same time.
"Alright we will discuss this later. I'm happy you are awake Adelia." With that said by the Alpha. The Alpha, Luna and Derek walk out together.
" You can not tell anyone including Ashton," Dara says. The Alpha nods and leaves.
"Nice to meet you Dara" my mommy says, " I will go set up the guest room for you."
Dara nods. "You are so young. How old are you?" She asks me with a smile.
"I am nine." I say shyly.
"We will start your training tomorrow have you came into any of your powers?" Dara asks. Daddy leans in curious to the answer. I nod to Dara and my brothers All look proud.
" I have Telekinesis and Atmokensis so far. I also have wings in my wolf form."I say. She smiles at me like she's proud.
"I'll go get you some food princess." Daddy says and leaves the room.
Dara decides to go get settled for the night and Aron says he has to catch up on work. Adam helped daddy get me food. The twins decided to sleep with me for the night again after I ate the grilled cheese and tomato soup daddy brought me. I feel so exhausted even though I have been out for a couple of days. I drift off to sleep thinking about how wonderful my family is.
