According to the quads, our departure was kept under wraps; even Hannah wasn\u2019t aware. We were supposed to meet in the dining room, go over the plan\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>and head out from there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t get the point of all the secrecy,\u201d I said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour safety isn\u2019t something we want to gamble with, luna.\u201d Said Ezekiel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlus, love, this was all arranged by the lycan kings. How could we go against them?\u201d Said Azreal, winking with a little smirk on his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I internally rolled my eyes so hard. Yeah, now they want to be dutiful subjects and not act out at their kings. Not like all of them wanted to beat the s**t out of each other yesterday. Goddess! Guys\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>and their selfishness! Before I could call all of them out on their hypocrisy, we reached the dining room and the twins and triplets that were in deep decision stopped and turned to us and as I predicted; they sniffed the air and frowned in my direction, then glared at the quads while my mates grinned like they had won the freaking lottery or something. I couldn\u2019t help but facepalm myself. Before anyone could say anything, I spoke up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the love of the goddess, don\u2019t start either of you. I don\u2019t have it in me today to take your\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>unnecessary bickering.\u201d I said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>No one was happy about what I said, but they all bit their tongues and nodded. I went to kiss each brother on the cheek in the hope of clamming them down because they were like ticking time bombs, and with the smugness that you particularly sense coming off the quads, they would denote that second by one wrong move or word.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I saw the triplets glance at the quads neck and frown; then they turned to me; Hayden spoke up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLittle wolf, why haven\u2019t you marked your mates.\u201d He said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I blushed! Yeah, I wasn\u2019t going to tell my older brothers that my so-called mates had pounded me into oblivion; all I could think about was sleep afterwards, and they were busy punishing me in the\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot that it\u2019s needed to complete the mate bond since the male\u2019s mark on your neck signifies completion of the marking, but it\u2019s a general courteous the she-wolf does to her male.\u201d Said, Lucas\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUm ahh, I didn\u2019t know\u2026um ah\u2026\u201d before I could finish my stammering of some lame excuse, Isaiah\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>m\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&lt; Chapter Sixty-Four Morning After Part Two\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>cut them off.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBack off, man, it\u2019s between her and her mates. Shell mark them when she\u2019s ready.\u201d Isaiah said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I sent him a smile in gratitude; he winked back at me. Why were the triplets adamant about me\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>marking the quads? I had to ask them later. The triplets scowled at Isaiah, but he just rolled his\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright, more of this later. Come here so we can tell you about the plan to reach the supreme\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>diamond pack.\u201d Said Tristan.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We all nodded and gathered around the table where he had a map of what looked like the entire\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>wolf multiverse.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo first we thought that we would go by road, which would\u2019ve taken us about eight hours, with the thoughts that the twins would arrive first, then you ttle wolf with your mates and we would come\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>in the next day, but with this whole Edward thing, we\u2019ll all be flying in our private jet directly to the pack together. This will probably spark rumours everywhere since we don\u2019t travel to packs unless of a new alpha coronation. Not many know about you, little wolf, but some of the old alphas do,\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>but they believe your dead; however, with all of us travelling to the supreme pack along with the\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>quadruplets and our parents, it won\u2019t be hard to put two and two together, that the matter may have something to do with you.\u201d Said Tristan.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEdward may hear of these rumours, which may lead to an attack on the supreme pack because\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>from what we\u2019ve heard, that man is obsessed with you and you being one of the three hybrids; the\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>obsession to make you his will probably lead him to attack the pack to get you.\u201d Said Lucas, him and everyone snarling at the thought of me getting kidnapped.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I felt my mates come around me and inhale my scent, trying to calm their wolves and themselves\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>down.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe couldn\u2019t be that stupid; it would be a suicide mission. With you all there, along with our parents and my mates, he wouldn\u2019t stand a chance.\u201d I said, did they not think about this? How could one rogue and his rogue wolves compete with the leaders of the wolf kingdom past and present and the strongest alphas of the multiverse?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would like to believe that Nutella, but that man is unpredictable; I wouldn\u2019t put it past him working with rogue dark witches. Even with all of us there, he could still find a way. We don\u2019t want\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>to leave anything to chance this time with you.\u201d Said, Josiah\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The thought brought shutters down my spine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seeing me shake in fear, my mates held onto me and rubbed my back, their touch soothing me.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t worry! We won\u2019t let him hurt you this time, Nutella. Even if it\u2019s the last thing, we do.\u201d Said\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Isaiah.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter Sixty-Four: Morning After Part Two\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tristan came forward, stood in front of me, and cupped my face in his big calloused hands, his eyes showing nothing but honesty.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe failed you once, little wolf, not this time and never again.\u201d He said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I smiled and hugged him. After he pulled back and gave my forehead a peck, he and everyone went over the protocol of reaching the airstrip, which, may I add, was so extra. Apparently, I was\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>supposed to be sitting in a magical armoured car, no magic or supernatural strength could stop it,\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>and in that car, Ezeakil, Sam, Isaiah and Hayden were to accompany me. The entourage\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>accompanying us was thirty elite warriors, my two mates and the rest of my brothers. They were acting like I was a queen; as much as it sounded nice, it was somewhat annoying. Everyone from my mates to my brothers and the warriors treated me like precious china. Yeah, I was no elite fighter, but I knew some basic self-defence and fighting skills. Physical training was mandatory at the academy, I wasn\u2019t completely clueless, but everyone treated me as such. I was brought out of my little anger bubble when I heard Eeezkil call out for me.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLittle Luna, this is Greg and Smith. They are the top elite warriors and, from now on, your personal guards.\u201d He said, introducing me to two of the buffest guys I had ever seen. Clad in body fit muscle tees and shorts, standing at least a foot taller than me, with buzz cuts. Goddess! Just looking at\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>them was intimidating.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t even try complaining if you don\u2019t want a repeat of this morning, my love\u201d Azreal said the last part as whispers, but Hayden and Lucas picked it up and snarled at them for the double meaning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I blushed crimson.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I wasn\u2019t planning on complaining, yeah, I knew basic self-defence, but I was sure as hell not ready to take on an ambush of rogues if it were to happen to me. I just nodded, glaring at them for saying the last part around my brothers. They all smirked and pecked my lips, ushering me to the car I was supposed to sit in. My heart pounded in my chest in anticipation of finally meeting my birth parents and the rest of my family. It was the moment I had always prayed for, and it was happening. Hopefully, nothing will happen on the way to the airstrip, and we can get there safely.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ezekiel and Sam helped me into the back of the humungous SUV, and Azreal and Zeke came to kiss me, saying that it was only a matter of thirty minutes and they would all be next to me again. After everyone was seated in their assigned cars, we were off, the massive pack house becoming smaller and smaller the farther we went. I prayed to the goddess to keep my adopted parents and friends safe till I returned; for some reason, I had a weird feeling that something would happen in my absence, but I brushed it off as being that negative self-doubting person I tended to become at times. After thirty minutes of the drive that was spent in comfortable silence, we were at no man land where the airstrip was; quickly getting off, everyone rushed to do as told. Helping me, my mates, the twins, triplets, Greg and Smith board before anyone noticed anything. After twenty minutes, we were in the air. I looked out the window as the land became farther and farther from us. I couldn\u2019t help but feel that buzz of anticipation of being one step closer to fulfilling one of my\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>3\/1\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&lt; Chapter Sixty-Four Morning After Part Two\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>most awaited dreams.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mom and dad, here I come.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>38\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shadows Of Passing Time \u2013 Carter Hughes 64 \u00a0 Chapter Sixty-Four Morning After Part Two\u00a0 Chapter Sixty-Four: Morning After Part [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-melting-the-ice-princess-novel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29705","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29705"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29705\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29705"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29705"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29705"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
