Understanding:

2428 Words
Pythia POV:  I had Lillith and Stony fix up a cabin that we all smudged so that no one would be able to find us. We needed to figure out all of this s**t with the grand elders and I needed all of them to understand what was about to happen. I received a letter from the grand elders that I will be summoned after the birth of our child so that gave us a few months thankfully. I held the letter in my hands and waited for everyone to take their seats. The alphas looked a little uneasy but that was because they were in an unknown area but the girls looked rather comfortable. "Thank you all for coming, I need to let all of you know what will be coming in a few months time." I said looking around. "What has happened?" Chloe asked. "Well, because I decided to keep the peace and Tye is my mate I have been turned in to the grand elders." I replied. They looked a little confused at first until it sank in."What exactly is the grand elders?" Stephen asked. "The grand elders are the very oldest of our kind. They are set in the old ways were we separate ourselves from others, they want dark witches to be the dominant race. They are also the only ones who decided my fate." I said slowly so everyone would grasp what I was telling them. "So they are what we are for the wolves and white witches?" Jasmine asked.      I nodded my head, "Yes, they are. I would like to replace them with hand chosen men and women but that is very hard to do." I replied. "Why is it hard to do?" Jackson asked. "Because there are more elders, some may believe the same as me while as you all seen others do not. We have to get through the bad ones to get the good ones and that will be a very long process.'' I replied. "What will happen with the grand elders?" Alley asked. "Truthfully I do not know. It's rare that someone gets summoned to the highest but it is what it is. I will present my case to them and they will decide one of three things. They will give me some sort of punishment, or they will agree with me and let me go, or they will kill me."  I said taking a deep breath. Tye tensed beside me, I knew this was a touchy subject for him and I hated even saying the third option but it is a possibility that it could happen. Goddess knows that I don't want it to happen but I can't control their choice. "They will not kill you." Tye said through gritted teeth. I placed my hand over his and ran my thumb across the back of his hand. The very thought that my life could end is a bit nerve racking but I can't lose my s**t just yet.          "Okay so we have a few months to get everything in order. Where do we start first?" Diane asked offering a small smile. "Well I need to find someone to help represent the case and the endless amount of work that will have to go in to this, I am hoping that within the time frame I am given everything will be peaceful so I can show them that this can work." I replied. "Okay so we ladies can work on that while the others work on their projects." Charlotte said. "This isn't y'alls problem though and I don't want anything to happen to any of you because of me." I whispered because that was the truth. If anything would happen to them it would would kill me. They are good people who don't deserve to be dragged down by my problems. "It is our problem, we came to you for peace and alliance, you didn't come to us." Alley said softly. She was right but still, I decided to keep the peace. "I know, but I made the final decision to keep the peace and it has not made the older ones too happy, we just need to get them to see and understand is all." I replied. "Oh don't be so stubborn Pythia, we are here to help and we aren't taking no for an answer." Stefanie said. Her words made me laugh. "I often forget I have help now. I'm so use to doing things by myself." I replied. Having all of them has made me realize how much I have missed. I felt the emotions hit me at once, I felt sadness the most because I grew up secluded and hated while they grew up in a loving pack with a lot of friends.  All of a sudden I felt warmth spread throughout my body and I looked around until my eyes fell on Alley, her eyes were a mixture of color but white stood out the most and I knew what she was doing. I smiled at her before I took a deep breath. "I would love some help if you guys are okay with that." I said looking around to the men. I knew they would be more protective than anyone else. "We don't really have a say in things like this. If they want to help we won't stand in their way at all." Devin replied smiling at Emma. "So where shall we start then?" Jasmine asked. "How about we meet y'all at the house, Tye and I have an appointment with Julie to check on the little one first and I heard she can give really good ass chewings to those who are late." I said giggling as I looked at Stephen. He rolled his eyes and grunted which only made me laugh harder, I've never seen an alpha be fearful of anyone other than their mate but I have to admit I needed to meet this Julie woman. "Alright let's go, if we don't leave now we will be late." Tye said standing up. I stood up next to him as did the others. "I will see you ladies soon then." I said smiling at them before we walked outside.      I looked at Tye who was looking at me smiling, "What?" I asked. "Rex wants to meet you again." Tye said. "Oh my Rex! When can I talk with him?" I asked smiling. "I can let him come out and speak, he has been pouting since the fight." Tye replied. "Okay well him and I can talk while we walk." I said wrapping my arm around his. When he didn't reply I looked up to see the familiar green eyes I had once met. "Rex?" I asked. All I got was a lop sided grin. "Ah my beauty I didn't think you would be able to tell the difference." Rex replied. "Well of course I can. You have a different eye color." I replied. "Tye has been rude and hasn't let me out to talk to you yet. Thank you for letting me come out." Rex said kissing the back of my hand. "I don't think he trusted you just yet, I have a lot to learn about wolves. I will say you are the most handsome wolf I have ever seen though." I said smiling. "Now you are just flattering me, my beauty. I have been waiting for you for so long and now you have blessed me with a pup!" Rex said excitedly as he placed a hand over my little bump I now had. "Well I couldn't have made him or her without you and Tye. I honestly didn't think I would ever get a mate and I certainly didn't think I would meet you in the middle of a battle." I said remembering how he stood over me.      "What is going on through your head?" Rex asked pulling me closer to him. "Just how you stood over me the first time we met. Oh and how you growled at me." I said giggling. "Okay I only stood over you to protect you, and I didn't know it was you that bumped in to me but I am very sorry for growling at you. I won't do it again." Rex said. "It's okay, I figured out what you were trying to do. Although the bark was adorable." I said laughing. "I didn't mean to bark! I didn't know what to do that didn't sound aggressive.!" Rex said as he tickled my sides. "It was cute! You can bark at me any day of the week." I replied. "Now that we are mated I don't have to bark you know, we can speak through a link." Rex said. Wait what? How did I not know that? "Don't think too much in to it my beauty it is easy to do. Just think of me and speak." Rex whispered in my ear. Okay just think of him or Tye and talk. "Can you hear me?" I said feeling a little bit silly, "Yes, I can. See I told you. Easy." Rex replied making me jump. "I'm so sorry I didn't mean to scare you." Rex said quickly with sadness in his voice. "You didn't scare me my wolf I promise I just didn't know if it worked or not." I replied snuggling in to him. As we walked through the doors a woman walked up to us smiling.      "You must be Pythia, it is a pleasure to meet you. I'm Julie." She said offering her hand out to me. I shook her hand and smiled. "It is a pleasure to meet you. This is Tye, my mate." I said looking up at him. I noticed his eyes had changed back so I knew they had switched. "Well let's have a look at the little bundle of joy, I must say you all picked impeccable timing." Julie said laughing. I couldn't help but laugh with her because she was right. None of us had this planned but at least our kids will have friends right? "I don't think anyone had that one planned out." Tye said laughing. We walked in to a room with a monitor and a bed and for some reason I started to feel a little nervous. "Please lay on the bed and raise your shirt just under your breasts." Julie said. Tye helped me up on the bed and I did exactly what she said because even though she looked sweet and innocent she had this thing about her where I knew she would tear someone apart if she needed to. "Now this is going to be a little cold okay?" She said holding up a tube with jelly in it. She squirted some on my belly making me jump a little bit before she grabbed some other little tool and smoothed it out.     I held my breath as she pulled the monitor closer and a fast little heartbeat sounded off in the room and tears filled my eyes. That is the heartbeat. This is real, there is a baby in there. "If you'll look here, you will see the baby is already very active. I have my guess on what it is going off the heartbeat." Julie said pulling me from my own thoughts. I looked at the monitor to see what looked like a little jelly bean wiggling around. "You think you know what it is?" Tye asked as he stared at the screen. "I believe so. Due to the heartbeat I will say that it is a girl." Julie replied. A girl? A daughter! Oh goddess this is a surprise I thought it would be a boy. "I love her already.." Tye whispered. I melted at the sight of him. We didn't know for sure and he was already swooning over the baby.      I stared at the monitor and watched the little bean bounce around like my uterus was a trampoline. I couldn't help but smile, I never thought that I would be a mother but here I am. When Julie was done Tye helped me clean up and I sat up on the bed and looked at him. I could see the wheels turning in his head. "What is it?" I asked. "My life is flashing before my eyes. A girl. A girl! She can't date ever. No boys allowed I swear I will have her surrounded by everyone." Tye rambled off. I mentally rolled my eyes and laughed. "Well that is a long time from now. You shouldn't worry." I replied giggling. "No, no first thing when she is born. No boys allowed other than her cousins of course.'' Tye said standing to his feet, he started pacing around making me laugh. I watched him have an argument with himself and possibly Rex. "You both need to calm down, it could always be a boy we aren't fully sure just yet." I said easily.      Tye grunted and I couldn't help but laugh harder. "You are already a handful what am I going to do with a mini version of you?" Tye asked. "Oh come on I am not that bad." I replied standing to my feet. Tye turned and gave me a look that made me laugh harder. "Come on we need to get to Alleys house. Stop stressing so much we still have a while." I said hooking my arm around his. "There isn't enough time in the world to help me prepare for a girl." Tye muttered as we walked out of the office. When he walked outside he took a deep breath. "Rex doesn't like the idea of having a little mini version of you running around unprotected. He wants an entire army around her." Tye grumbled. Of course he does. If I have learned anything it is that wolves are very protective of their little girls. They train the boys to protect them. "I think you both are thinking too far in to it." I replied.      I could just imagine that Rex would be fighting Tye a lot for control but then I could imagine that neither of them would hardly leave her side. The thought of Tye carrying her around in one of those body carriers made me smile. He was going to be an excellent father. This was going to be my life. We just needed to get through the grand elders so that we could live our life in peace with the others......
