Undefeated Luna

13. Lavender

12. Felicity POV:

I was lost. Brooke was dead and she was turned into something un-natural something that I had no idea what it was. Kilian was saying something to me, he was standing in front of me. I could feel the heat radiating from him, Estrid was whimpering in my head because she just lost a sister. I knew what she wanted, and I could not give it to her, I saw Kilian shift and all I could feel was jealousy, Estrid wanted me to shift but I didn’t know how to, for the first time in my life I didn’t know what to do. “No harm will come to you” Kilian whispered it in my ear.

I immediately put my hands on his neck, I needed to hear that again. Something seemed to change in Kilian he wasn’t possessive anymore, he was protective, protective over me. My intense guard was let down when I leaned forward. “Say it again”.

“No harm will come to you I promise” he said stroking my face with his hand. His lips crashed against mine, he was hungry and deprived and I was what he was missing, he needed me, he craved me. I left my hands on his neck and pulled him in again. I opened my mouth letting his tongue in, as he wrestled with mine, I moved my hands down and placed them on his chest, I could feel the growl coming for it. He pulled me in closer by my hips, he was now hard, he wanted more, he started to move his kisses down to my neck. He kissed just below my ear and my whole body melted in his. The one tiny stop awoke something inside of me and it wasn’t Estrid,  I had to stop.

“What. Was. That?” I said breathing in with every word.

“I’m sorry Felicity I couldn’t help myself; I just had the urge to mark you.”

“MARK ME ?!” I shouted.

“That spot above your ear, that’s the marking spot” as I moved my hand over it, I felt a shiver down my body. “We can’t do that again, rule number 7, never touch that spot again”. I shook myself off and I made my way to the car. The journey back was even longer than I remembered, I wasn’t in the mood to listen to music, I had to tell my sisters everything I saw tonight, they should be on their way back now.

“We need to hold a meeting tomorrow and change our training techniques, right now we are focusing on their abdomen and heart, we need to focus on their necks and spine” all I could think about was Brooke.

“Let’s do it tomorrow we need a good night sleep” Kilian said emotionlessly. I stopped the car.

“What are you talking about? How can you sleep?” my emotions got the better of me and he was the only one that had this kind of effect on me.

“Sorry, that’s not what I meant” he held his hands up in defence.

“My sister died tonight and then she was resurrected by f**k knows what or who” I couldn’t keep it together.

Kilian POV:

When we got back last night, I followed her upstairs but she didn’t even turn around. Zara was waiting for her at the top of the stairs and Felicity buried her face in Zara’s fur. All I wanted to do was to hug her, but she walked away, leaving me in the empty corridor. I didn’t want to have a shower; I wanted her smell to stay on me but I was covered in that half-vampire thing’s blood. That morning I woke up earlier I needed to tell Seth what happened last night, I wanted him to find out before everyone at the meeting.

“Seth, you up?” I send him a quick mind link.

“Hmmm huh?  He was asleep.

“Meet me in 15 minutes in the kitchen”.

Jumping in the shower, I leaned against the back wall and looked down, the thick crimson blood ran down my body and into the drain. I quickly got dressed and went down to meet Seth.

“Do you have any idea what time it is? You disappeared after dinner without a word and now you want a meeting with me at 5 am?” he sounded like an old woman. “First coffee”

I had to explain everything to him, who we saw, what they looked like and how they can be killed. I obviously missed out the make out session.

“So, it’s not just normal vampires we are facing, it’s evolved versions?” he asked.

“Yeah, it is, get dressed and meet me on the training ground before seven”.

I made my way to the training ground and I was surprised to see Felicity was already there. It didn’t look like she slept, she was motivated, she was driven.  She looked like she has been fighting for hours, her hair was no longer in a simple plat, little hairs were coming out and she was red in the face from exhaustion.  She pounded into the body bag like it was her worst enemy. She flew towards it with her knife and pierced the leather skin in the middle, she was no longer aiming for the heart.

“Hey, have you slept last night?” I came forward with a sword.

“No, we need to tell the pups about those things and what’s the use of telling them if we don’t present to them how we should fight?” she never one stopped what she was doing, she was in a trance.

“We?” I knew where she was going with this.

“Yes we” she stopped to look at me “are you going to use that sword any time today?”

“Let’s do this darling!” I grinned. Felicity lounged forward; she didn’t have a sword just her fists.  High guard, but something was different she didn’t want to stand in front of me, she tried to get round to my back, to my spine.  She spun her legs round on the floor, knocking me down, her fist slammed into my ribs. I grabbed her calves and pulled her onto the floor next to me.

“Felicity I know what you’re doing and it’s not going to work, I’m not exposing my spine”. I straddled her just like she did to me yesterday, she tried to thrust her hips to get me off, but I held her hands down.

“I think you forgot how flexible I am” winking as she said it. She lifted her legs and tightened them around my neck pulling me back. I could see someone approaching us, but it did not stop me I wanted to fight and so did Felicity.

“Am I missing something? What have I walked into?” I heard the voice behind me.

Felicity POV:

A girl approached us. She was beautiful with brown shoulder length hair and a button nose. She looked really relaxed with blue jeans, a Gun and Roses T-shirt and some old Chuck Taylors. Kilian got off me and walked towards her, picking her up before spinning her around.

Mine! -Estrid growled in my head, was she jealous?  Was I jealous?

“Katy, I’ve missed you so much”.

That Katy has to get away from our Mate! I’m going to tear her apart. I couldn’t shake the feeling off, first he was on top of me and now he’s picking some tramp up.

“Felicity this is Katy, she hasn’t been home for three months” Katy held out her hand to shake, but Estrid wasn’t letting me, that stubborn wolf. “My younger sister, well the youngest out of all of us” Kilian added whilst lifting one eyebrow.

Ohh my bad- Estrid apologised.

“Sorry, my thoughts have been somewhere else” I shook her hand and a massive grin formed on her face. “My name is Felicity, the First...”

“The First Daughter” she interrupted. “I know, Adam and Lucas told me about you. I heard you can fight; I would like to learn somethings from you if that’s alright?” she was keen.

Katy was the kind of person that you can’t help but like, her personality radiated and everyone around her would be happier. I promised to show her a few moves but she had to go and get changed first, she would not be do any roundhouse kicks with jeans on, she came back after three minutes all changed and ready to go.

“Morning everyone, we have received some news about the enemy” Kilian emphasised the word received as he didn’t want people to know how we actually found out, making me have a warm and have a fuzzy feeling, he was, again, protecting me. “One of the Daughters, Brooke was killed by a new type of vampire, one of Dracula’s creations” he stopped as some of the Daughters gasped at the news. “However, she is not dead, she was resurrected and has joined his army. There is a way to recognise them, they will have white eyes and no fangs. They do not die from a stab in the heart, they are physically dead… their weak point is their spine” Kilian instructed.

“That is why we are changing our training” I pitched in. “Daughters that includes you as well, we have always trained to kill, never to fight with the dead, instead of attacking from the front we need to attack from the back, you will be paired off and you will only train to attack for the first hour”, I needed everyone on their top game today.

Seth POV:

Shit, s**t, s**t, Kilian was going to have me for this. I left my phone in the kitchen and I didn’t hear my alarm go off. I only woke up because the sun was shining through my blinds, but I had a feeling Oscar woke me up as well.

“Ohh hello sweetie, good morning, would you like a sandwich?” Mrs Powell greeted me in the kitchen.

“No thank you, I’m actually running a bit late” I ran out to the garden and headed for the training ground.

Come on, come on, quicker, Oscar appeared in my head.

Ohh hello, have we met before? If he was going to be a d**k and leave me alone, I would be a d**k back.

Just move will you! He cut me off before I could reply.

When I got to the training ground, I looked at my phone, it was 8:14, they have been training for over an hour. I saw Kilian in the middle sparring with one of the Daughters, but they were acting weird, they weren’t fighting like they usually would.

“Alpha, I’m sorry for being late” he looked at me angrily, “but it’s not my fault” his face dropped.

“Whose fault is it?” Kilian barked.

“Well, I would say you telling me about some new vampires at 5 am has something to do with it but...” I couldn’t say anything else; Oscar wasn’t letting me. I was looking up at Kilian and he was saying something, but I couldn’t concentrate, my chest got heavy and my heart started pounding. Suddenly, I was hit with the best smell, lavender, but it wasn’t just a normal everyday lavender, it was more intense, I couldn’t shake it off. I followed it through the crowd, and Kilian followed, he must have thought I was possessed.

Mate, mate, mate, our mate is here! Oscar was howling in my head.

As I walked past people the scent was only getting stronger. Then I saw her, hair pulled up in a ponytail just grazing her collar bone. She was wearing long grey joggers and a white tank top. She was working out hard there was a patch of sweat on the back. She must have known I was there, she turned around and I saw her grey eyes, those beautiful cupid lips, she was mine.

“Mine” I said softly, only then I realised whose eyes and who’s lips they were, it was Katy.
