《The Secret Pack》Chapter Twenty-Three
Advertisement
I was so happy to see Cadmael and Theo as well as Chris. I stayed in the hospital for three more days, making it a week there. I ignored Elijah every time he stopped by to see me. We didn't talk, well at least I didn't but he did. Telling me how sorry he was, that's all he has been saying lately. He then started to visit each time I slept and when I woke up, he was long gone. I could only smell his scent and that's why I knew he came to see me. I thought it best because in that way, we avoided the awkwardness between us.
Cadmael told me all that has happened to him so far. It was a bit shocking to see my friend that I've been with since forever, doing magic. He seemed to enjoy it and I was happy for him. Theo as well could practice magic and he was happy his father now allows him to do so.
The other guy that they came here with, Ashton, was a guardian witch. He was guarding Cad until everything worked out. He was the best guy to be around with and I enjoyed it all times. He had a brother but Elijah only allowed one of them to come here with Cad. His cousin, Michael, can associate with witches but Elijah didn't trust them enough.
The moment I was out of the hospital, I stayed to myself. It's like I was living on my own in a full house. I enjoyed my time with Cad as long as they had been here. We had fun together and it was sad to see them go. The week they had been here was all I needed to escape my problems. Sadly, I had to see them go, as they had a lot going on back at their pack.
I haven't seen Joyce around and I want to keep it that way. She doesn't have to know that I'm having something that can take Elijah away from him. She is unpredictable and I have to make sure that she stays away from me.
"Luna there's someone here to see you." Liam informs me. I stand up from the bed I was lying on and open the bedroom door. I go and sit on the couch after telling him to let them come in. I already knew who was coming and I've been expecting them. The guest enters and sits opposite me.
"Do you have anything for me?" I ask Kyle who is sitting beside his mate Mariana.
"Yes Luna, we have a lot to tell you." Kyle answers and I smile. I've had him to look into Joyce and her followers. To know exactly what they are up to, I have to know who they are.
"The girls are all witches Luna." Kyle pauses. "Joyce comes from a powerful line of witches and the friends are from her coven." He explains.
He tells me of the history of her ancestors. They were very evil and they practiced dark magic. They sacrificed children and killed each other in order to gain more power. But there were also good witches born in the coven. The high priestess gave birth to twin girls. One was evil and the other was her twin's opposite.

They grew together but fell apart, as they had different motives. There came a time when the dark fought the light but no one won. They were both powerful and the fight was even. Then they decided to separate dark and light.Joyce comes from the dark coven called Old Dark Forest while the other coven was called New Light Forest.
There was a prophecy four years ago but Kyle doesn't know what it was about. He says he will look into it but I tell him not to. I have another idea and I think that source of information will be better. He warns me not to mess with Joyce at the moment until we figure out something because she is very dangerous.
"Luna I know I'm not supposed to say anything on this, but how are you and Elijah doing?" Mariana ask and I just shake my head.
"We are not okay at the moment and I hope you can understand that. He brought another woman in my home and said woman is carrying his baby." I say and a tear falls down my cheek. I sniff and wipe it off as I stand from the couch. "I'm sorry, it's just that things are getting hard for me and all this shit about Joyce is eating my strength away."
"I understand Luna. But you are the strongest Omega I've ever met. You are still here and trying to deal with your problems than walking away. I admire you and I hope you hang on until we are done with Joyce." I smile at Mariana and hug her, saying thanks for being here and for working with her mate and helping me out. I just hope my strength doesn't drain out.
Kyle leaves but his mate stay behind to keep me company. Since its already late, we prepare dinner and eat together. We talk a bit more until Liam says its time I take some rest for the night. Mariana leaves, I prepare for bed and then I sleep.
***
When I woke up this morning, I called Ashton and asked if he could come and see me. I had to know more about the twin covens and a witch will tell me more of what I needed. He said he will leave immediately and I've been waiting for him since. I stand up from the chair I sat when I hear the car pulling up.
I run out the house with Liam following and approach the car as Ashton comes out of it. We hug each other and I smile when he tells me how much he missed me. I and he have gotten along pretty well when he stayed here with Cad. He asks how me and the baby are doing, how things are going. Before I could say anything, Elijah comes out of the house and in our direction.
"Who is- Why is there a witch here? I don't think I gave access for him to be here." He ask and I know he's angry.
"I was invited here, alpha, by Kac." Ashton replies.

"Don't call him that!" He shouts at Ashton.
"He's my friend Elijah; he can call me by name." I defend Ashton.
"I will appreciate it if you remove your hands from mate's body." Elijah says in a warning tone as he takes a step close to us. I move a bit away from Ashton and stand between him and Elijah.
"Not another step Elijah." I warn him as I put my hand on his chest. "Tony is my guest and you should respect that just like I respect that you also brought a guest in this house."
"Tony, huh? So this is about Joyce? You've never seen me touching her, have you? Yet you are all over your guest!" He shouts.
"I don't know what you do with her in closed doors Elijah. But one thing I'm sure of is that you touched her and now she's pregnant." I shout back angrily.
"It's not my fault that you can't get pregnant, stop being a jealous bitch!"
I slap him the moment the words leave his mouth. I can feel the tears flowing down my cheek but I ignore them and look him in the eyes once he turn back to face me, so that he can see how hurt I am by his words. He goes to touch me but I tell him not to touch me and I shut him up once he starts saying sorry. I look away from him and walk back inside the house with Ashton and Liam behind me.
Liam stays outside my room as me and Ashton walk inside. I wipe off my tears and smile at my friend when we sit on the couch. He shakes his head and pulls me to him, telling me to cry and not pretend when he's around that it doesn't hurt. The tears come out, flowing down my cheeks as I silently cry. I didn't expect Elijah to call me that and most of all say I'm jealous of his child. I can't be jealous because I have my own child.
I don't know when I slept but I woke up to Ashton shaking me and saying it was time for lunch. We eat while we talk and laugh, the morning events long forgotten. He managed to cook lunch and I compliment him at how great the food is.
"So tell me, what did you want from me? That call seemed serious." He asks when we're done eating.
"I asked the beta to look at Joyce for me to know who she is and maybe figure out what she's up to." I pause and then tell him all I've heard from Kyle about Joyce.
"This is serious Kac. The old dark forest coven was the most evil coven in history but there was a time they just vanished. I didn't even know the coven still existed."
"It's good you've heard of them and it means you know of the new light forest coven. We need them to defeat Joyce. You know them right?" I ask hopefully.
"Yes, I do know them." I smile as I now know we can deal with Joyce. "But we have a problem." He adds, wiping the smile off my face.
He tells me all about Cadmael and what this entire thing means. He tells me about the prophecy as well and to sum it all, I can say that we are in deep trouble. Things might go well or bad and it's best to expect both. He tells me he will come to check up on me in a few days. I escort him outside to his car and before he drives off, another car pulls up. My heart beats wildly in my chest as Joyce's friends come out of the car. Sensing their magic, Ashton pushes me behind him and says something under his breath.
"What is a guardian witch doing here? Or should I ask who you're guarding. Is it the little Luna hiding behind you?" Janet asks as she walks towards us but then she stops a few steps away, the shield Ashton put around us prevent her from coming near.
"So you're guarding the Luna, interesting. Well good luck with that and I advise you should stay out of our way or we will have problems." She laughs evilly as she walks away, getting inside the house.
"I need to call Cadmael and tell him I'm going to stay here for a while. I can't leave you all alone with just Liam because he isn't enough to protect you now." Ashton states as he take out the phone from his pocket to make the call.
"If you can tell that I'm pregnant, it means they can also tell. What if they know I'm with child?" I start freaking out and he shakes me to relax. He had already put a spell on me shielding anyone to smell or hear the heartbeat of my baby. No one can know unless they hear it from us and I calm down a bit.
He makes the call to Cad and then he tells me that my friend will be here as soon as he gets the permission to come from his mate Michael. I smile knowing if all goes well, we will still get rid of Joyce and her coven soon. We walk back inside, the plan is to wait till Cad gets here and then we can start planning to end it all.
***
She gasps as she hears the Luna and the guardian mention it. She runs all the way to her priestess room and enters without knocking. Before the priestess start yelling at her for the disrespect of entering her room without permission, she drops the bomb.
"The Luna is pregnant."
