“Why didn’t you just come in, and I thought you had to see the Alpha?” I ask him.
“Apparently he is out on patrol with some warriors,” He says, shrugging and stepping inside.
Suddenly I hear Natalia yelp, making my father and I look toward the kitchen.
Tabitha’s panicked scream made both of us run toward them.
“What, what is it?” I ask, running into the kitchen.
“Her water just broke” Natalia said, running from the room and returning with towels.
“But you're not due yet” I tell her before suddenly Tabitha doubles over and screams in pain.
“Someone call the Alpha” Natalia screams. My father who is as pale as a ghost nods, pulling his phone from his pocket and dialling the number with shaking hands.
“Lily, come help,” Natalia says. Help?
Help with what? I am not the one pushing a bowling ball out of my coochie.
Natalia waves me forward with her hand, all while Tabitha moans and groans in pain. I help Natalia lay her down on some towels. When suddenly the power goes out.
My father looks at his phone, frustrated. “Someone will have to go get him, I just lost service”
“What do you mean you lost service, it is a mobile not a house phone?”
“Exactly what I said Lily, I lost service”
“It’s alright, a midwife lives across the road I will go get her, you wait with Tabitha I will call an ambulance from over there and I will try to mind link the Alpha as long as he hasn’t blocked the mind link” She says getting up and running to the front door. The mind link? Why didn’t I think of that, I am now pack linked.
I try to reach out to Damien, but it is like hitting a wall. Confused, I called to Layla.
“Layla? What’s wrong?” I ask as she slowly comes forward. “I don’t know I don’t feel so good, I think something is wrong with Damien” She states.
“Can you contact Darian?” She shakes her head and I suddenly can no longer reach her. Leaving nothing but deafening silence in my head.
A few minutes passed, and Natalia wasn’t back. Tabitha was still screaming and gripping my hands so hard they were turning purple.
“Where is she?” I ask, and my father looks toward the door.
“I will go see if I can see her” He says, and I nod but before he even has a chance a loud horn starts blaring from outside and I hear the sound of roller shutters. Looking to the windows, Roller shutters start blocking the windows.
“Dad, what’s going on?” I scream to him. He doesn’t answer, Tabitha does instead.
“We must be under attack” She says panting.
“This didn’t happen last time” I tell her.
“Yeah, that horn only goes off if we are being overrun” She says before screaming through another contraction. My dad comes running back in.
“I can’t get out,” He says, panting like he just ran to every door in the entire house.
“What do we do?” he asks, looking toward Tabitha in panic.
Chapter 29
Damien’s POV
I had every intention of leaving this morning, but when I was called through the mind link to say my warriors had a visual on Kade; I bolted from the house, heading to my men. Shifting and running through the forest heading towards my men who were meant to be on the east side of the territory. Arriving at the location where they were meant to be keeping eyes on him. Only no one was here. The entire forest was eerily quiet, not even any noises from birds or insects. My instincts telling me something was seriously wrong.
