Something Wicked This Way Comes

Chapter 11: Family History Revealed

Tricia’s POV

  I can’t believe it was a full two weeks that we were out for. It completely shocks me. That’s okay because depending on what Taylor says about what has happened in the last two weeks with the pack not having me around then I will make my decision, but I will tell him what is gonna happen when we finish date night.

  When I get to my office Taylor is there with all the information he could get on my mothers family and a few numbers for the witch that will be training me to be strong even when I’m not using any of my wolf perks.

  “Thanks Taylor.” I told him. After taking the papers I picked up my office phone and dialed the first number I had for the witch.

  “Hello Mrs. Prescott, My name is Tricia Smith and I am calling because I need your help.” I told her once she answered.

  “Ahh yes. I’ve been expecting your call for quite some time now.” She said.

  “I’m sorry, I don’t think I understand what you mean by that.” I told her.

  “Your mother loved you so much that in the event of her death she already had my services reserved, considering that she saved my life even after being mated to your father. You have my condolences she was a very vibrant woman and always put you before anything else.” She told me.

  “Thank you. I would like to know if there is any way you would be able to come to my pack to train me? There is an available house on pack lands that is a pretty good distance away from other houses that you would be able to use.” I inquired.

  “I suppose your Aunt Kathrine has been around then hasn’t she?” She asked.

  “Yes ma’am she has. That’s why I have requested you come to the pack lands that way you are safe and if she attacks me again we may be able to have somewhat of an upper hand.” I told her.

  “Okay. When would you like for me to come up there? I don’t have a lot of things, but it would be best that you and I are in a secluded area because we still need to unlock your powers since I’m assuming that you haven’t unlocked them yet have you?” She asked.

  “Whenever would work best for you is fine by me.” I told her.

  “Alright I will see you shortly. Shouldn’t be more than an hour since I refused to leave my car behind.” She said before ending the call.

  “She’s on her way. Taylor I need you and one of the woodsmen to go fix up the house on the edge of our territory. And I also need you to call a pack meeting in about 30 minutes so that way I can let the pack know what’s going on.” I said using my command even though I’m not really sure why I did it.

  Ever since I woke up I’ve felt this new power and I can’t really explain it. It’s like I know what’s going on but I feel stronger than I ever have. Goddess I hope I get this all sorted out that way I can hopefully move on with my life.

  I am preparing myself to meet this witch. Something about her voice sounded so familiar. I can’t dwell on that right now. Focus Tricia, focus. I make my way downstairs and outside to have the pack meeting,  and I notice that over half of the pack is already there. I will start once some more people arrive.

  When the last of the pack members arrive I decided that it best if I go ahead and start while also having Taylor open his mind link with the rest of the pack.

  “Good afternoon everyone. As most of you probably know I was attacked by a witch.” I said and earned some growls when I did. I also notice that part of Justin’s pack has arrived when it wasn’t mandatory.

  That just shows me where their loyalties lie.

  “That witches name is Kathrine Smith. I know that may confuse most of you seeing as how before my parents were mated Smith was also my mother’s maiden name. She is in fact my mother’s sister. She is an enemy of both packs. Her photo has been posted at every guard station and at every possible entry point to our pack lands. I will be having a visitor and I’m not sure how long she will be staying with us. She is also a witch and her name is Ashley Prescott. You WILL welcome her and make sure to keep an eye out for her as well. That fact is not up for debate. Something that most, if not all of you, don’t know is that I am half witch so she will be here to train me and to help me to control my powers. Some of you may not like it, but I am still most of y’all’s Alpha and the Luna to the rest of you.” I told them. I know they won’t like that I am part witch, but I can’t change my DNA any more than they can.

  “With all of that being said, I want to thank each and every one of you for keeping our lands safe and for doing the best you could while I was out after the attack. I am healing quite well and I can assure you that I still have my wolf and that the witch that did this also killed the past Alpha and Luna, my parents. I can assure you that this witch will know that she picked a fight with the wrong pack and will regret the day that she opened up her eyes on this earth. I will not rest until our packs are rid of this threat. That is all, you are all dismissed. The only ones I need to speak with are the people that have been on patrol and I need to speak with the Beta’s and Gamma’s of both packs. You have 10 minutes and you had better be gathered in my office. Have a good rest of your day.” I concluded.

  I know that my pack has a right to know what is going on and how we plan to fix this situation. That is the only reason I told them I was part witch. I guess we will see how they all feel over the next few days.
