The Alphas And The Orphan

Sunday 6th March

Star’s POV

The last week has flown by. After meeting with the elementals and telling them everything we found out from Trent, we decided to leave out who Trent actually was and the deal he had made with the moon goddess, as we thought the hurt they had suffered was just too deep.

All ten of them jumped at the chance of taking out Barton and his rogues, so we spent the last week preparing for battle. Thanks to Trent, we know that there will be 300 plus rouges, and more than likely three elemental males. Luckily for us we have women with all three of their powers, and women with a lot of other powers as well.

I looked down at the list in front of me. We had learned a lot about our strong Elemental woman over the last several weeks, and I have learned to harness almost all of their powers myself, and those I can’t manifest on my own, I can borrow by touching them.

These women are exceptional. Alone they are strong, but together, with me to anchor them, we are unstoppable. Each woman brings something special to our group, and we have been training as an elite squad, to run along side the pack warriors.

Jessica Lewis:- Wolf: Saskia. Their element is ice, they can freeze anything they touch, and with training they have managed to freeze an area of over five miles. Aiden had started to call her Elsa, who knew Aiden spent his time watching Disney movies.

Hayley Simpson:- Wolf: Snow. They can control the earth, can change the molecular structure of anything connected to nature, turning mud into liquid and back again. They have the ability to make flowers and trees grow at an amazing rate, even change rock so we can pass through it, but the best part is they can ground us against electricity.

Anya Grey:- Wolf: Jinney. The wind element, like me, can form wind from thin air, creating walls and funnels. They can also lift our troops and make them fly. Olly tried to call her Tinker Bell but Ace shut that down quick.

Stella Dent:- Wolf: Honey. Fire element. Fire balls erupt from her hands. If something is on fire, she can control it, making it bigger or extinguishing it. By combining their power with Anya, they can shoot fire across vast distances.

Hannah Perk:- Wolf: Tess. Air element. They can suck all the air from a building, which we can use to suffocate the enemy, or extinguish fire. They can also remove air from someone’s lungs, she can also create a bubble of air when it is needed, if a room is filled with smoke, for example.

Stacy Prince:- Wolf: Tiny. Electrical element. They can shoot electricity from their hands, and cause their whole body to be charged with electricity. They can also shut down any machinery, or cut the power to buildings.

Penny Dyer:- Wolf: Beany. Night wolf, They can draw light from their surroundings, making it darker than night. They have been able to cover the entire pack with darkness, about 20 miles in diameter. They can also create light, making night as bright as day.

Jasmin Howard:- Wolf Peggy. Water element. They can create water, they can fill lakes, and flood villages, but when combined with other elements, they can create tide waves and whirlpools. They can also remove water, and control the flow of any existing fluid.

Frankie Milton:- Wolf: Destiny. Time wolf. They can slow time down, they stay in normal time, meaning they appear to be moving really fast, gaining her the nickname, ‘the flash’. They can also reverse time, but only by 3 minutes. She can take someone with her, but it wipes them out, so it is a last resort.

Julie Marks:- Wolf Fawn. Their power is poison. They can fill a room with poisonous gas, make their skin excrete any form of poisonous substance, but can also excrete antidotes to all known poison’s or venom.

Both of the last two and Penny’s night power, are the ones that I have not been able to master, but I am immune to their powers, and can extend their reach.

Barton Miller will not know what has hit him.

I looked up from my desk as my three sexy men walked through the door. Ace picks me up from my chair and sits down in my seat, with me on his lap, leaning into his warmth. I ask.

“Are we all ready to go?” He kissed my forehead and nodded, “Yes, Anne-Mary has sent three coven members to Antipaxos, and has atleast two members in each pack that is coming to help us.”

“How many allies have committed?”

“We have three that are coming with us, including Blair, but there are another six packs that are ready if we call. They have witches already in their packs, they will open portals if we need them, they come to organize the clean up afterwards. The Ivybridge coven is all in, Anne-marie wants a piece of Barton. After what he and Mary-Beth have done, using magic to cause pain to innocents goes against everything she believes in.”

I turned to Lex, “are our warriors ready?” He threw me a smirk, “of course they are, baby. Our warriors are always ready for a fight.” I rolled my eyes before turning to Ash.

“Darling, have you spoken to dad? Are they in Paxos yet?” Nodding his head, “Yeah, they arrived at the Howling Moon Pack early this morning. Him, Cam and eight of their friends are waiting for your orders. He did say that his friend, the old Alpha, Hellios, had been spending time keeping watch on your mum’s old pack ground. The barrier was still up, but he had noticed a lot of rogue activity. Alpha Leander said they have had a few small attacks, but it looks like the rogues are just after food.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Ace stands up, lifting me in his arms, “come on guys, it’s time to go. Aiden just linked me, Anne-marie and her witches are here and are ready to go.”

The plan is for my elite squad, Ace and Ash, along with most of our warriors and Blair’s group, to portal into the Howling moon on Paxos. The rest of our allies will portal to Kavos in Corfu.

Lex is taking his team to Antipaxos. They will spy on Barton’s compound and get the lay of the land. If he is there, then we will portal in waves for the attack. There will be a large party of allies guarding Thalia’s pack, The Spirit Moon, just incase Barton heads there for safety.

Ace passes me to Lex and I wrap my legs around his waist, looking into his eyes, I press a tender k**s on his lips, “baby, promise me you will be careful, do not attack until we get there. Okay? I kinda like having you around.”

Kissing me passionately, he whispers against my lips, “I love you baby, I promise I will not rush in or do anything stupid until you are by my side and we can be stupid together.”

I giggle as he carries me down to the porch of the pack house. Everyone is ready to go. Andrew passes me my bag and gives me a hug. He is going with Lex’s team.

Amanda rushes to us, giving us all tight hugs, and tearfully telling us to be careful, before jumping into Andrews’ arms and shoving her tongue down his throat. They make out like teenagers for a few minutes, until Ace clears his throat.

“Time to go guys, mum. I think they need help with the pups.”

My girls all crowd around me, and Aiden k****s Jess on the cheek and heads to join Lex. I am so glad they are giving it a go. I know they have a long road to travel, but hopefully, ending Barton will help to heal some wounds.

The witches open the first portal. Lex and his team are the first to leave. He blows me a k**s and disappears through the portal. Next it’s our turn.

Ace, Ash and I lead my team through first. It is hard to explain the feeling of traveling by portal. It feels like you are being squeezed through a hole that is too tight while spinning out of control.

The babies do not like it at all, and I really have to concentrate on not bringing my breakfast back up. I see dad and Cam walking towards us, and they pull me into a hug.

“Astéri? are you okay baby-girl? You have gone very green in the face.” I smiled up at him, “I will be fine, dad, the pups do not like to portal.”

He grins and hugs the boys, “I have told Hellios a little about the girls and he has arranged for only women to be around them. He has also warned his warriors to keep a distance. Come on, let me introduce you.”

We walked towards two men, who were very obviously related. Astéri, I would like to introduce you to my very old friend Hellios, and his son, Alpha Leander. Hellios, Leander, this is my daughter Astéri and two of her mates, Ace and Ashton.”

The older of the two took my hand, “it is a pleasure, Astéri, your father has not stopped talking about you, your resemblance to your mother is quite astounding.”

I grasped his hand, “Dad has spoken of you too, it is a pleasure to finally put a face to the name.” After everyone has been introduced, we are shown to our accommodation, and we are left to settle in.

Leander bows to us, “please take your time. Lunch will be served in about an hour, we will come and show you the way.” Ace thanks him and he leaves us to settle in.
