Chapter 43
Chapter 43
Alora’s POV cont’d
I had paled, my stomach protesting, my head had spun for a moment “The staff that has tended to the
upkeep of the Heartsong’s holdings have been employed for generations, the Heartsong’s always
paying well and treating their staff with respect.” He said, “You will have loyal people on your side.” he
assured me. “You’ll also have Ember and I and then their is Darien and now Serenity, and when he
gets home, Damien.” he told me. “We might not be your blood, but were more of a family then your
blood ever was.” @
His statement had meant everything to me, and he was right, It was a very unusual family to say the
least, but I’d take it happily. “Your right Alpha, thank you.” I told him, he blushed a little, cleared his
throat then continued. “Also, speaking of blood, I’m starting to worry part of your test was tampered
with, not with your maternal connection to the Heartsong’s, but to Allister,” he said to me. I had looked
at him, It had been like he’d read my mind “I have had my suspicion of it recently as well.” I had told
him. 3
“What I can do is order Allister to come to me, I will have Ember draw his blood, then she’ll run the test
herself.” he tells me. “We’ll have it done tomorrow, Ember will take a fresh blood sample from you in the
morning.” he said. “Why tomorrow?” I had asked him, wanting to know way the rush. “It’s tied to why I
believe the King of Vampires is visiting, and your scent changed after you passed out at lunch.” he told
me.
“When you woke up, those markings around your ankles and wrists were not all that changed about
you, and the blood fire seal is not a werewolf’s magic.” he’d said. “Do you know what kind it is?” I’d
asked him. “I do.” he had said grimly. “It’s Vampire magic.” he had fallen silent, looking at me, letting me
connect the dots on my own. “You think my father is actually a Vampire?” I’d asked him. “Yes.” he’d
said. “We need the blood test to confirm it.” He’d told me. I had nodded “Okay, I’ll give Ember blood in
the morning.” I’d said to himThis novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com
“Hopefully by the time your finished with your last test we’ll have the results ready for you to look at with
us.” he had said. He got up “There is a motor bike for you here at the pack house, I hope you like the
color, it’s purple, Ember picked it out. It’s a Honda CBR1000, it’s supposed to be fast and sporty.” he
told me. I had smiled, happy for my own mode of transportation. “It’s a gift, you deserve it after working
so hard on your education.” He said. I had felt full to bursting, this was what family did. O
He had held out his arms and I had let him pull me into a hug. The kind a dad gives his own daughter.
“Thank you, you all have been so kind to me.” I had said, tears in my tone. “Ah. little pup, you’ve been
suffering a terrible injustice for to long, I’m glad we were finally able to get you away from those
people.” he had given me one more squeeze, “I’ll see you in the morning for breakfast.” and then he
had left. 3
That was about an hour ago. I see lights go on in two different balcony windows side by side directly
across from me in the other wing, the Communal wing. The boys must be back now, wonder if they
already gave Serenity her things, they must have arrived by the time I had finished my talk with the
Alpha. The Alpha is going to offer them a positon at my side tomorrow.
Listening to the rain coming down was soothing to me. I loved the rain, there was something cleansing
about it. It brought with it a meditative peace I needed at the moment, for the chaos inside me. So
much has happened in such a short time, and I was still processing most of it. One of which was that
my mother has apparently been evil since before my birth, and Sarah was basically her copy. I mean
on some base level of my mind I had an inkling, but this has confirmed it. I thought I was all wolf, and
that if Allister was not my father, it was another wolf. (2This novel will be daily updtaed at

But no, I was not all wolf, if the Alpha’s suspicion’s are true, I was a Hybrid. How’s that for going out Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
and finding yourself. Most people come back with a new state of mind, me however. I come back with a
whole new species, that I hadn’t know till now I was. Even before we get the results, I felt the Alpha
was right. My magic, if I took a step back to look at it, my magic was a mixture of light and shadow’s.
Then there was the other presence I felt inside me now, and a chain that connected to somewhere.
Where did the chain go? I sit down on the floor between the open doors. I sat in a meditative position
and closed my eyes. I needed to go inside myself and find some answers for the questions plaguing
me. Deep breath in, drawing in the sent of rain and flowers, slowly exhale, letting go of my physical
self. O
I was transported into Xena’s space, only it was more now. The bookshelves from my space were here,
placed around her willow with purple bark and glowing blue flowers. But if I look closer at those flowers,
I could see they were cherry blossoms. My shelves, white stone glowing under the twilight of Xena’s
space, the climbing vines now deep dark greens, their flowers glowing. I look around.
It’s like my an Xena’s place has melted together. I’m naked again, with my hair swinging free down my
back, the stars twinkling among the strands. Here my tattoos and crown were physical manifestations
their marking in my skin ħad portrayed. The temperature was temperate, warm without being overly so,
the scent of rain, flowers and lightning drifting around me.This novel will be daily updtaed at

I had appeared under the willow. I walked across the soft earth and grass, down an isle created by the
staggered rows of bookshelves, walking toward the pond, with the brightly colored koi, I was looking for
Xena. I see her sitting on the shore of the pond, looking into the glowing water. My toes sink into the
earth as I step onto the shore next to Xena, connecting me further to this plane. O
I decided I need to be wearing something so I can sit, thinking of short shorts and a spaghetti strap
tank. Looking down the shorts are white and glow slightly, my top is black, but not just plain black. The
top looked like it was made of swirling shadows and the nights sky, it was low cut showing my
cleavage, I didn’t bother with a bra. Though my chest was large, I was a werewolf, so my breasts were
still high and perky without the bra. With my new outfit on I sit down next to Xena, the jewelry on me
was also a physical manifestation on her too.This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com
This time, instead of the sky being an even split, only the tip of the sun here could be seen, the moon
was now fill and bright. It must be a reflection of what time it was in reality. (1)
“I need answers” I say to her, she nods.
“I think we both do,” she replies. “There is another presence here, and there have been changes.”
“I have felt that presence too, why are my book shelves here?” I ask her.
“Our ‘spaces’ have melded together. In the light, the willow will have light brown bark, the willows
flowers, will be pink cherry blossoms.” she told me. “It used to not get that bright here, but I find I have
quite enjoyed the changes.”
“It’s beautiful in here, I like it.” I tell her. I look down again, staring into the water, watching the koi dance
around each other. out of the corner of my eye, I see the chain again. This one wasn’t wrapped around
my power, this one was made of obsidian black links that had delicate silver and gold inlays in intricate
designes. It’s beautiful, and it lead somewhere.
“Xena.” I say, getting her attention again. “Do you know where this chain leads?” I ask her, grabbing
ahold of it, the links faded as they enter me. “I’m not sure where the chain goes, but it’s been blocked
by the others binding us till now.” she tells me. “I wonder how we find out” I say aloud. “Maybe tug on
it?” she says. So I tug on it, it wiggles, but not much. So I pull on it harder, I felt something then, it was
faint. I tug even harder, repeatedly, like ringing a bell. There was a wave of power that rushed at me
from the other end.This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com
Whatever was attached to the other end had been called, and it was answering the call. Maybe I would
now find out what was on the other side of this chain tonight. The question was though, would I like it?
