Natala (Emerald) POV:

My body was slowly recovering, no doubt because of my mates being close to me—the bond speeding up the process. Everyone’s eyes were locked on my face, waiting for me to tell them what had happened. The thought of recalling those scenes was gut-wrenching, but I needed to know if they were my premonition powers or not. I wasn’t going to risk any lives when I could’ve stopped them from being lost in the first place. Feeling the uneasiness radiate through me, I felt Azreal and Sam take hold of each hand as Ezeakil and Zeke rubbed my back from behind; they gave me a small encouraging smile.

“Go on, luna, but whenever you think it becomes too much, you can stop, and we can talk about it in the morning.” Said Ezekiel.

I had forgotten that it was still dark outside; everything happened in a span of a few hours, and I didn’t even realize the sun had yet to rise. Smiling at Ezeakil and my other mates, I nodded. As much as my body screamed to get some rest. Now wasn’t the time; much bigger things were at stake. I took a deep breath and looked at my family, who were patiently waiting for me to start. I took and deep breath and started.

“Well, you know the part where I shifted and then we all ran into the woods with the twins, triplets and the quads chasing me. As Tristan and Isaiah had already told you during the run, I deterred from them when I felt an intruder when my senses kicked in. However, just as I approached the group of wolves in the distance, a splitting headache hit me. It was as if a sludge hammer was pounding my head, and my eyes burned, which made me scream. When I closed my eyes, it was like my soul was taken from my body; I had seen three scenes. One where we were at the dark storm pack, the quads parents, Luca, Hannah and the warriors were fighting off rogues while one dragged my pregnant friend named Leah away. I tried shouting out to her, but it was like I wasn’t there. Then that same headache came again, and when I opened my eyes, I saw you: Daddy and Da, fighting alongside the warriors with rogues here at the supreme pack. Then a third time, when the headache came, and I opened my eyes, I was in a room; I didn’t know where I was, but it looked to be like an underground cell or something but Edward was there…” the moment I said Edward’s name snarls and growls resonated around the room. My brother’s eyes were now black, and they fisted their palms; daddy and da shook with anger as my mates gripped onto me tighter as if I was going to disappear any moment now. Mommy and auntie looked pale as ghosts. I was already prepared for this reaction, so it didn’t phase me. After a couple of minutes, when it looked like my fathers, brothers, and mates had slightly calmed down, I started where I left off.

“…he only said two words, ‘got you,’ and the pain was back, but when I opened my eyes, I was back in the woods, my mates surrounding me. The group of wolves I saw early was nowhere in sight. But what was off when I came out of the dream-like haze, my body was exhausted. It was like I was going to collapse at any moment. It was when my mates touched me that my fatigue was slowly diminishing.” I said.

As soon as I finished, my brothers and my mate’s eyes were bludging out. They were rendered speechless. Their looks told me whether they should believe me or not, but they knew whatever I had said was the truth. Even though they looked shocked, intrigue shimmered in their eyes. All our attention was caught when we heard mommy sigh in defeat. Looking in her direction, she had her head in her hands as daddy walked to her and engulfed her in his arms as he whispered sweet nothing in her ears. My mates doing the same as their body heat calmed my erratic nerves and helped rejuvenate me. When mommy had calmed down a bit, she looked towards me and gave me an apologetic smile, she wanted to come near, but daddy held her close to his chest.

“I’m sorry, baby girl. We had no clue your power would come in so early, nor did we think you would shift into your lycan so early. It was probably triggered by you marking your mates and the strong bloodline you carry. But, to answer your unasked question, yes, what you saw was your premonition powers coming to play. Da has already explained that someone needs to be in range for you to foresee their plan through your powers. So when you neared that group of wolves and had no control of your powers, you jumped into all their minds simultaneously, and for a newly shifted Lycan, it took every bit of your energy.” Said, mommy.

I zoned everything out, the only things reeling in my head, jumped, mind, plan. That means they were about to attack the dark storm pack and take Leah. I jolted from between my mates, eyes frantic as I looked between everyone.

“We have to leave now, Leah, Hannah, everyone back home is in danger, and so is the supreme pack. We got to do something.” I said, words rushing out of my mouth as if a deranged rouge was chasing me.

“Luna, Luna, calm down. You still need to regain your energy…” Ezekiel started saying, trying to pull me into his embrace, but I pushed him away

He seemed shocked at the action and a bit hurt, but I didn’t care at the moment.

“Did you not hear me? They are about to attack the pack. We have to leave,” I said

Just as I was about to head to our room to pack our things, Da’s voice stopped my mates and me, that were behind me, trying to make me slow down.

“Sweetheart, calm down! Those wolves probably know you’ve been inside their heads because if you saw Edward, that meant he was amongst them too. I doubt he’ll attack us and dark storm pack now. It would be a suicide mission since he knows about your powers.” Said Da.

The thought did ease my mind a bit, but I was still unable to let the thought of Leah or anyone I loved potentially get hurt. Seeing my conflicted expression, my mates turned to me, Zeke holding my face in his hands as he gazed down at me with the utmost gentleness and love. My other three mates surrounded me as they rubbed my shoulders and back, their touch and the tingles they spread calming me down.

“Angel, calm down. You heard the former king; they’ll likely change their plans now. But we will still call Luca and have extra patrol up. We’ll also tell him to notify everyone at the pack and tell all your friends to stay at the packhouse, which is non-negotiable.” Said Zeke.

His words calmed me, but I felt that I was probably the reason the quads weren’t returning to the dark storm pack. The guilt was slowly growing. I couldn’t keep the pack’s alphas here when their pack was in the midst of danger, all because of my power-hungry a*****e of an uncle. I held Zeke’s hands and ushered my mates to all stand in front of me as I looked into their eyes.

“You’re not going back because of me, right? You think I could be kidnapped or hurt on the way back, or it might be a trap?” I asked.

Their diverted eyes were all the answers I needed—the guilt eating me. No, we had to leave. They were the alphas of the dark storm pack and I, the luna. We couldn’t leave our pack when they needed us the most. I took each of my mate’s hands, stacking them with one another as I looked at them.

“We will be fine. Our pack is known to be the biggest and strongest for a reason, and if I’m not safe in my own home, I’m safe nowhere. Dark Storm needs us, and hell if I let that deranged man stand in the way of that. Let’s go home.” I said, giving them a small smile.

“We will be fine. Our pack is known to be the biggest and strongest for a reason, and if I’m not safe in my own home, I’m safe nowhere. Dark Storm needs us, and hell if I let that deranged man stand in the way of that. Let’s go home.” I said, giving them a small smile.

My words had rendered my mates speechless. I would’ve laughed if the situation wasn’t as dire as it was. The quads seemed shocked for a minute, and then their eyes shone bright with love and pride. I was squished in a quadruplet hug as I felt k****s being placed everywhere, making me sigh in contentment.

“You sure, my love?” I heard Azreal whisper.

“I’ve never been more sure in my life,” I replied

I could feel the quads smile from where they were nuzzling me. The thought made me smile. These four men right here were my world, my life and I sure as hell was not going to be the reason for any of theirs or our pack’s downfall.

“Spoken like a true Luna and princess of the kingdom.” I heard mommy say from behind us.

Untangling myself from my mates, I turned and saw my family. Even though they were smiling, I knew they weren’t happy with my decision to leave at this hour, especially my brothers, but I needed to do this. I went towards the twins and triplets in the far corner, and when I was a few steps away from them, giving them a small smile in hopes of easing the tension amongst us.

“I’m sorry for how I behaved back there, but I’m not sorry for standing up for my mate. I know it might feel weird to see your baby sister with her mates, but I need you all to stop this cold war. Especially you both, Isaiah and Josiah. You six were great friends until you learned the truth, and I want it to stay that way, not have you all at each other’s throats,” I said.

My brothers looked defeated but nodded regardless and, one by one hugged me. Apologizing in my ear and saying that they didn’t think less of me and knew I could defend myself; it was just they were worried. I placated them! I knew they were worried; hell, everyone was. But I needed everyone on the same page right now.

“Are you sure you wanna leave, little wolf?” Asked Hayden

I smiled. Squeezing his hand in reassurance and nodded.

I could see my brothers sigh in defeat, as did Daddy and Da.

“Then we all will go back with you! As I said, we failed you before, not this time.” Said Tristan.

“But, but, you have your packs, your kingdom. You’ve already been gone for so long.” I said.

Wasn’t their presence needed in the Lycan multiverse? Or the twins here at the supreme pack? Yeah, alphas and kings travelled, but I doubt they were gone this long. Though my love for my brother and family doubled, they were willing to do anything to ensure I was safe.

“Nothing is more important than family, sweetheart, remember that. Family above all.” Said Daddy as he hugged me.

I could see my brothers, Da, mommy and auntie nod in agreement.

“But…” I tried speaking again but was cut off by Da this time.

“No buts, young lady. Now let’s go!” Said Da

“Are you sure?” I asked.

My brothers, mommy, daddy, Da and auntie huddled around me as they all looked at me with so much love and adoration that all the uneasiness I had felt earlier was gone.

“Baby girl, like your father said, family over everything. Now let’s go kick some a*s.” Said mommy, kissing my forehead.

I nodded with a slight smile on my face.
