Chapter 115
Chapter 115
“Ma’am, it’s good to have you back.” Sheridan and Alpha Nick arrived almost at the same time to welcome Athena. She looked exhausted, not having slept over at the Moonshine Pack.
However, Athena was rather worried about Sheridan. “It’s late. What are you still doing awake?” She asked worriedly.
Seeing Sheridan hugging Athena affectionately, Arnold could not help feeling that he was pushed aside.
“Sherry did you forget about me so soon?” He asked, feigning annoyance. Sheridan pulled away from Athena and went to hug him.
“Not at all. You look tired. Shouldn’t you rest?” She asked with care, Arnold smiled and replied. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“I will. I’m glad to see you well. I guess I was worried for nothing.”
Indeed, he was very worried but after seeing Sheridan with his own eyes, he could now leave and be at peace that nothing bad would happen to her.
“Good you know,” Alpha Nick said, Arnold smiled and went to the room he was given at the pack house.
“Dad is sleeping so mom, let’s go to my room to talk,” Alpha Nick said seriously and began walking upstairs but Sheridan sympathized with the middle–aged woman.
“She looks tired.”
“I know but we won’t take much of her time, right?” Alpha Nick insisted, knowing that his mother would not mind. The three went to the second Alpha Chamber and Athena asked instantly.
“What is the problem? Sheridan is fine. Is that not enough? Athena did not hide her annoyance, feeling as if she was. being interrogated.
The most important things had been done so she was no longer disturbed.
“No mom. There are a few things I want to know. It’s about the magic pack. What do you know about it?”
Athena stiffened a little befo
she replied. “It’s just as the name sounds. Everything about it is magic and everyone there has some strange powers. The pack is not visible to the eye, as it’s protected by magic.”
“How do we get in?” Alpha Nick asked again. If an attack on the magic pack would help him to end everything about Charlotte, then that would be great.
“Don’t,” Athena said seriously, confusion clouded the atmosphere. All along. Athena told Alpha Nick to prepare for war. Now that he was ready to attack, she was telling them not to?
“But Charlotte is there. That is the only place to get her, Alpha Nick explained slowly but Athena only shook her head.
“Don’t fight the enemy in their strong hold. It would be better for the battle to be brought to your doorstep. If it involves Charlotte, she would be in for a surprise when she comes here.”
Alpha Nick recalled what happened during Charlotte’s disappearance. There was so much chaos and he wondered if something of that sort happened again.
Where did she suddenly get those powers from? Alpha Nick wondered. “Then how do we fight pack members with magic?” He finally asked.
Athena was tired from the long return travel but felt that without giving the appropriate answers to her son, neither of them would have a good night’s sleep.
“You don’t have to. Sheridan would only have to take out Charlotte. She must lead the war but you should be mindful of deception,” Athena cautioned them, Alpha Nick refused to go by that plan.
“No way I would put her at risk. She has not even been coronated yet.”
Athena did not want to be the one to say it but it was very necessary. “Nick, Sherry has a history with Charlotte.”
Surprise covered Alpha Nick’s face as he stared at Sheridan. “Is it true?” He asked, Sheridan nodded her head and began to explain it to him but wondered how Athena knew about it.
“We were best friends before 1 realized that for most times, she wanted me dead. I always escaped her traps. The day I was supposed to meet you at the restaurant and got there late, she had sent some thugs after me but ma’am, how did you know this?”
Before Athena could respond, Alpha Nick asked Sheridan. “Why did you not tell me?”
Sheridan was finding it hard to control her anger and to not remind him of the past. “Are you seriously asking me that question?” She questioned, Alpha Nick instantly realized his mistake and apologized.
“I’m sorry. It was all my fault.”
Athena was only looking for a way to resolve everything and have some good sleep. It was time for Sheridan to know her level of importance to the Thorax family.
“Sherry, there is a family secret you have to know but it should not be shared with anyone else.”
“Okay,” Sheridan answered due to her trust for Athena and the middle aged woman began to expla
it to them.
“The Thorax family has some powers passed down to the first children. If you have a boy as a first child, the powers would cease to manifest until that boy grows into a man and marries a woman who gives birth to a girl.”
Sheridan was quickly putting the pieces together. “Was that the reason why you wanted to see Daisy?”
Athena nodded her head and answered. “Yes. I gave her the emerald bracelet you gave me but there are powers in it”
Sheridan was beginning to understand the reason why Athena loved the bracelet so much. It was of good use to her. “How does it work?” She asked.
“Because she’s very young, it would only protect her but you as the mother, can harness the full potential of it until she gets her wolf,” Athena revealed, Sheridan was happy for the fact that she would be able to battle with Charlotte to end everything.
“You mean I can have some strange powers?” Sheridan was excited about this but the next explanation put her on the edge.
“Yes, and that was the reason I told you to take good care of the pendant. Now where is it?” She asked, Sheridan bit her lower lip thoughtfully.
“I didn’t throw it away. I must be in my jewelry box. I just decided not to wear it because it had Nick’s picture.” She was beginning to regret it upon realizing the importance but Alpha Nick took the blame.
“I deserved it.”
Sheridan had no idea exactly where she kept the pendant as she could not find it in the jewelry box. She began a search for it as she asked, “What if I don’t find it?”
