Davina's P.O.V
As soon I was down, my vampire part of me fought forward, because they began sucking my blood trying to drain me dry. My body trembled, and I can faintly hear Jake and Hardin, Derek, Aria and my dad Yelling for me. Pain shot through my back as I felt my bones snapping and stretching. My vampire was enraged. I hissed. My body shuttered as I began to change from my Primal Wolf form and into something else. I shrunk and grew again, but this time, wings exploded out of my back painfully, I roared as the two vampires fell off of me from the change. I grew taller again and my claws were longer than my wolf claws. My whole body looked wasn't as bald as Timothy or Demetri, I had some black fur all over my body still, and I felt my long black hair fall to either side of my face. I felt power and hunger serging through me, and radiating out of me, making the vampire women sink lower to the ground as they stared at me. I looked at them below me and grabbed them both, holding them at arm's length lifting them off the ground as my wings began to flap, I held them as they kicked my hands around their throats and my claws digging in drawing blood. I recognize these two as Demetri's followers who like to f**k him whenever he wanted. I growled at them, they were no better than Demetri, even help torture humans. Just like that I squeezed the life out of them, my claws causing their head to pop out of my grasp at the same time their bodies fell to the ground.
I look up at Demetri and Timothy fighting eachother, I fly upwards toward them, rage cursing through my body. This vampire side of me is hungry for blood, ruthless, deadly. While Both werewolf side and vampire sides are gifted with heightened sights, sounds, strength, speed, fast healing, the werewolf side was more lethal in combat and the vampire side was more ruthless in combat it seems. As I flew toward them rage overtaking me of everything Demetri has done. I was stuck here for months because of him, I was stuck pretending my brother was my love for months, I was sold to my brother after being kidnapped, I've seen and heard many things that they did to the woman of all species here. There's no one I have ever met with more cruelty than Demetri had. I didn't want him captured, I wanted him dead. If Timothy can't take him out, I will.
I fly toward Demetri, arms and claws ready to grab him, Timothy uses his legs to kick Demetri in the chest then I lung at him from underneath them both. I grabbed him by the throat his eyes widen in shock as I held him and squeezed while I roared in his face, fangs extended I went for his throat moving my other hand out of the way, I sunk my fangs into his throat. I didn't even care if he clawed at me, I was fuming with power, and because I was a Hybrid, my healing was working much faster.
I felt his blood trickle into my mouth, surprisingly it tasted good. I began to drink from him as he trashed, then Timothy surprised me by tapping my hand for me to move it, I did, as I knew he was no threat to me, then he too sunk his fangs into him. He pulled back to look at me, "Feel for his emotions as you drink, feel everything he feels, but don't let go, then pull when your in his head, once your in, you can see everything he has done, or skip through to important parts if you wish, just will yourself to navigate as you see fit. Then, we decide if he lives or dies." Timothy says and then sinks his fangs in again, closing his eyes and I can see his eyes moving under his eyelids, he was seeing his memories.
Curious, I bit him again, closing my eyes this time. Then I began to feel Demetri's body stiffen, then I smelt his fear, as both hybrids got him, beneath his fear was hatred, then shame that he was caught, jealousy of what we're were.. I clung to that for some reason, I started to wonder why, then I saw images began to flicker and come to life as if I was dreaming...
I was standing in an office somewhere, Demetri was sitting at a desk tapping his foot heavily, looking at a book but not reading it, it seemed. Then a short woman wearing a 1800 style plain dark navy dress with a white apron over top that had blood stains on it and she had a bit of blood on her hands, she came in sweating, "Master, You have a son!" Then she goes back out running. He stands up running to follow her. He was dressed as if it were back in the 1800's. He walked in to see a perfectly vampire baby, he had no hair and he was screaming as they were cleaning him. "He's perfect." He smiled at his newborn son. The Woman in bed was pale looking, I rushed over to her side as if I can help. Then Demetri rushed over to her side brushing her hair away from her face, "Angelica, honey, we have a son! You did wonderfully my dear!"
"I love you Demetri, take care of him for me." The blonde woman who looked to be only 16 touched his cheek ever so gently and Demetri cried over her hand, then he grabbed her hand and kissed it, "Why are you talking like this?"
She gave him a sad smile, "My wolf is dead, I am dying my love."
"No!! You can't! Don't leave me!" He chokes out then he gestures for one of the midwives, "Check her! Help her!"
"Shhh shhh!" Angelica sushes him, trying to comfort him. "They already did, I am bleeding to death and they can not stop it, this sometimes happens during childbirth to mothers."
"But your not just any mother!! your a werewolf! your stronger than this! Call Anna back! She can heal you!" He yells.
Angelica began to cry, "She's gone love, Take care of him please, promise." Angelica pleased holding his face in her hands.
Demetri cried, "I promise! Angelica, I love you, rest now my love." He whispered the last part.
"I love you both-" Angelica took her last breath and like that she was gone. My heart broke for him, for that small moment. I guess Demetri at some point in his life, he had a heart. What happened to it? and why was jealous link with us why'd it bring me here?
I was pulled back into another memory, Then I saw through his eyes, the love he saw radiating out of Jake as I rewatched Jake running to the little room Demetri had locked me in filled with the toxic fumes. He Shimmed and watched from a hidden balcony in the ceiling, he watched Jake almost breaking his bones trying to get to me. He hissed when he saw his vampire wife helping Jake out. I felt what he felt. He felt nothing for her as he watched her walk away and she glanced up at him and he sneered at her and she smirked at him as she told Jake about the self destructive bombs...
Then through his eyes I was now on the roof top watching the battle, pacing, then I saw myself, Jake and Hardin coming around the corner of the building, he watched us the whole time were out there. Then I felt his jealousy spike when he watched Jake and I kiss, then also when we both turned I to our Beasts. He was jealous of our love, it reminded him of what he had with Angelica. She was his soulmate, his one true love, without her the love died when she did.
But, what happened to his son? The memory shimmered and faded and I was thrown into a other memory of his but this time I was not seeing through his eyes. I was standing by, spectating again.
Demetri was in battle fighting back to back with a Primal Werewolf and they fought against groups of vampires and werewolves. Then, a vampire woman grabbed his son and had him by the throat as a werewolf lung at him, ripping at his legs. His son roared out in pain and he did the wrong thing by shifting back into wolf form, probably to try get them off, but it didn't work. Just like that the vampire woman but into his neck while the Werewolf tore away his throat too. Demetri's son died by them both. Demetri finished killing the vampire fighting him as his son fell to the ground limp. Demetri roared out in agony, "NOOO!!!" He grabbed the woman vampire who helped kill his only son, and he took her head clean off then he beat the wolf until the wolf was weak and had no choice but to turn, to find that the wolf was a woman. Demetri hissed. "All women will pay for this, until my last breath!!!" Filled with rage from losing his only son, he killed the Werewolf girl where she lay weakened and broken. Demetri couldn't even bury his only son, he was thrown into battle again and finally when it was done, ye went back looking for his sons body but it wasn't there anymore. "Where's my son?!"
"I'm sorry Sir, but I saw witches carrying your son away." He looked down sadden.
"And you just let them?!?!" He grabbed the man by the throat. The man struggled against Demetri's grasp.
"Sir, we couldn't get to them, they used their magic against us and one of them said, "Tell your master he'll know the pain in not grieving properly and having a proper burial for his son, just like he did when he killed and didn't let us take one of our own. Then they used a magical portal." He told him.
Demetri dropped the man he was holding and he let out a roar as he sank to the ground to his knees defeated. I watched him, as I saw pain, fear, grief and hatred pass through his eyes... Then he stood up after staying that way for a long time, his soldiers waiting for him. "We will build from here, I promise you all a Kingdon and that is what we will have. We will avenge my son and kill every single vampire women and Werewolf, witch we meet, if one of you men end up getting mated to one or find your soulmates with them, no one is to Kill them, killing another mate or soulmate in our kingdom will be forbidden.. but, please if we capture these women, ask these questions! Were you in the battle of Blue Moon Territory? Do you know of a Primal Werewolf? If not then kill them. Oh and before you do kill them, make sure every man get a look to see if their destined mates or soulmates, then kill them. We kill them all." He sneered in disgust and spit on the nearest women corpse and the memory shimmered and I didn't want to see anymore and like that just thinking it, I was back to myself. My fangs let go of Demetri's neck and I let Timothy hold him in place, he was still reading him. Feeling mixed emotions from doing that, I let myself fly down.
The moment I touched the ground, I let myself shift back I to my human form. Then my mother Aria came over to me and waved her hand over me, I looked at the ground not fully paying any attention to anyone around me. I was so lost in thought. I was vaguely aware my mother had magically put clothes on me.
Seeing through Demetri's eyes and seeing through his memories on stand by and also feeling what he felt at the most important moments of his life gave me new knowledge and a new perspective of Demetri. I know we all don't just turn out evil and cruel on our own... But seeing what all changed him and made him the way he is, was a whole different thing. Because I have ever known and saw this man as one way only. He was cruel. I wanted him dead. After seeing the truth, I wasn't so sure now. He wasn't made evil, he lost the only two people that mattered to him most in this world.
If he was suffering this much, why hadn't he found a second chance mate? or maybe he had killed her by accident... or maybe one of his men did... of all the women that came and went through his Palace for all those years not one was a second chance? Why? Or maybe she was still out there?
Wait what am I thinking... We want him dead. This man doesn't deserve to live. Why am I thinking about helping him find a mate? I shook my head. Maybe if he had love, he wouldn't be like this, but then again, some of his men were truly cruel to other women here, many women were r***d while they were stuck here. Then, I remember how he killed that man who tried to do the same to me. Then he threw me on stage to be sold, he gave me options but none of those options granted my freedom. But, he also didn't want to kill me when he put me in that room... It was a test. I felt that much from him when I was watching through his eyes. He wanted to see how much my mate truly loved me. On how he knew I was mates to Jake I should have looked into that but, I kind of figured he knew when he placed us together on a mission. He also, was the one who told me the news that Jake had died, was it to watch my reaction? Was he testing us all this time without us knowing? He must've been.
Frowning I look back up but was surprised to see that Timothy was still flying above us all holding Demetri fully now as Demetri was limo in his arms and back into his human form. "He's still looking through his memories." I whispered.
"So, that's what you were doing?" Jake asked me.
"Finally you talk, we've been trying to get your to respond to us for a long time." Hardin says, shaking his head.
"MATE!!" A deep voice says from my right. I look and saw a huge man, "Who?" I tried to ask but then he strolled over to Aria and Aria stiffen then turned around and shut like that she was lifted into the tall guys arms. They were kissing. I frowned, and looked at Jake who smirked and said, "That's Timothy's Beta Mike."
"Looks like you have a new step daddy." Hardin Chuckled.
I rolled my eyes and glanced at my dad quickly and he just smiled at Aria and shook his head, then he looked at me, "Second chance mate, I guess she can finally move on since we won the war." He smiled at me, he looked truly happy for my biological mother.
"Yeah Jake, I was looking through Demetri's memories, I saw a few things of why he is the way he is... and- his son is missing kind of." I frowned and glanced at Jake who nods frowning also.
Everyone was now in human form, no more fighting going on and I turned to Hardin, "How are you doing?"
He looked at me baffled, "I'm fine, barely even fought anybody. I should ask you that. One minute you were in wolf primal the next you turned into one of them." He pointed his thumb toward the sky where Timothy still had Demetri in his arms reading into him.
I nodded at him, squinting up at them again, "Yeah, I wonder if he's drinking him dry, wonder when he'll be done?"
My dad walked up to stand beside me looking up also, "He reading every single memory Demetri had his whole life, I've seen him doing it countless times in the past." He looked at Hardin, "She turned into her Primal Vampire, that's what it looks like, even you can do it if needed."
Hardin frowned at him, "Huh. Wonder what Jake's Primal would look like as Warlock, maybe a Wizard?" he raised his eyebrow and Jake.
"Yeah, no. I don't think I have a Primal whatever." Jake shrugged.
Then it was my turn to frown at my dad, I folded my arms at him to face him. "So, dad.. How do you know Timothy so well?" I asked. Which made Hardin and Jake look at him then, also curious to know.
My dad cleared his throat, "Well, I'm actually almost as old as Timothy that's how, just a few years younger than him, but we grew up in the same pack, I was his next friend. Until my mom n I moved to a different pack, my father left us in his pack, said he found his true mate.. back then it was real hard to find mates so sometimes we chose who we wanted to be with with, but we never marked our chosen mates, it was against our law. Anyway, he and Mon had me, then when I was 10 he found his true mate, apologize to my mom but she was just happy to keep me, and she understood his way, but he did come back for visits, I had somewhat of a happy healthy relationship with my dad. His mate was a wonderful women who also had a child of her own from another man, who I take as my sister, even though we're not related by blood. Then, my dad had another son by his mate. You know them as Aunt Maddie, and Uncle Matt." He smiled at me, I nodded, I've only seen them once a year during winter solstice. He continued, "Then my mother found her mate and moved us to a far away pack. He was a nice man, loved my mother with everything he had, they cherished the mate bond and accepted her and me as his own. That's where Aunty Madison comes from, My stepdad Brant. But of course you and hardin know my stepdad died and not long my mom did too out of loneliness. Anyway, that was years ago now, and I'll always be grateful to them, then being the oldest, Brant left his pack to me." He shrugged, "That was over 100 years ago." My dad chuckled.
"What?!?" you've ruled for over 100 years in the same pack!?" I shouted.
"Well, yeah, along with David Sr." He shrugged.
"My dad?!" Hardin asked, surprised on both of our faces, we looked at eachother.
Then Jake chuckles from behind us, he was busy tying his black shoes someone must have gave him after the shift. "Guys, have you learned nothing? Werewolves age slower than humans, my dad is like 200 years old and I'm the right age, my parents waited long to finally have me, they can still have another child again if they wanted, but my mother chooses not to." Jake shrugs.
"I choose not to, because we are always busy with battles and wars and stuff like this, we have no time for children, it amazes me we had enough time for you son." Jake's dad Steven Smirked as he quickly pats Jake's shoulder walking to us.
"So, during that time, you didn't find a mate?"I asked, shock written all over my face at the new info of Jake's age, "How old are you really?"
Jake smiled and shrugged, "Only 30 years old."
"30?!? I thought you were 23 or something?" I said surprised.
He shook his head, "I'm 30, you assumed I was younger and I let you, that's back when I didn't fully trust any of you."
I frowned then, "You didn't trust even me?" I folded my arms, "Even with the mate bond?"
"I don't trust anyone, I grew up that way, it takes me awhile to open up, look how long it took for me to finally show I was half Warlock. Plus I knew about my family for a long time, but this time, it's the first time I meet Timothy.. Oh and yeah I've been waiting for my mate since I was 18, I almost gave up and went with what my parents." He quckily glared at his dad and his dad raise his brow, "were arranging me to marry a witch, it I wanted to at first but changed my mind and ran away." He chuckled.
"Not like I didn't know where you were son." Steven said as he glanced at Alrik, my dad.
"Wait, you two know eachother?" I asked.
"Only through Timothy and I recognized Jake's scent the moment he entered our territory and as Alpha it was my job to investigate and I found Steven and talked with him briefly with his son." My dad said.
"I gave Alrik permission to initiate Jake into your pack and at the same time Alrik has been keeping touch with me since." Steven smiled.
"Wait, if my dad is your beta, where's he?" Hardin spoke up next.
"Border patrol, he should be here shortly." Alrik smiled at Hardin. "Along with your brothers."
"Man, there's a lot to catch up on, I can't wait to go home. Dad when can we go?" I asked.
"Well, we need to search this place up and search for survivors, That's what Hardin's dad and a group of my men and Timothy's men and Stevens men are all doing on the outskirts where the fighting began. "Plus we have to look for documentation and question Demetri as soon as he's done with him." Then my dad Whistles and 30 men come closer to us and he yells at them, "Search every building for survivors and bring them to the center." They all nod and left, "Let's get everyone else to gather body's of the enemy and put them in piles over there." My dad points to a little clearing near the forest edge." And we'll also gather the bodies of our people and get them transported to our packs for proper burial." Everyone else nodded, "Let's get this palace Cleaned up for it's Heir Aria Sawyer, Queen of Starry Crescent Pack." My dad nodded at Aria.
Aria, "Alrik, thank you." She smiled and then looked back up at Timothy's Beta.
"Son, I'll need your help searching a few buildings, your well familiar with everything here, lead the way." My dad said to Derek.
I watched them go, Derek was the same height and same built as my dad and now that I'm watching them, I can finally see some similarities with them, the way they walk is the same, and their seriousness when it comes to leading people, not a smile on their face, they carry the same stern look with their jaws set. You can definitely tell they were father and son, but of course Derek's eyes are from Aria and mine are from my dad. I guess I look like my mother aria a little but I mostly have my father's looks, my body has more curves than my mom and I'm taller than her, but I have her big round eyes but my dad's eye color, my dad's hair, my dad's skin tone while Derek has our mom's skin tone which is Sunkist. I have the same heart shaped face as her, but my lips are fuller than hers, I guess more like my dad's.
Then I heard a loud growl from above. Everyone was staring up as Timothy floated downward his wings spread out and flapping slowly carrying an Unconscious Demetri in his arms, He just finished pulling his fangs out of Demetri's neck. As soon as he landed with him, he laid him on the ground ever so gently.
I glanced at Jake he glanced at me eyebrows raised, we looked back at Timothy. Everyone that didn't split up to help around, we stopped what we were doing and we surrounded Timothy, curious as to what he has to say. The anticipation thick in the air.
"As you all know, Demetri has committed tremendous cruel crimes throughout the years. I have read every single memory that he had throughout his entire life. It was a lot to see and it is now a lot to consider into his punishments. He will be put into custody of the Royal Family of my father Michaelangelo First Werewolf and Werewolf King and his Council. Demetri has been at this for 20 years, he saut this place out as a revenge against the women who took and never returned his sons body. He captured and tortured innocent witches through his reign as The Supernatural Black-market Leader and supplier. However, I found out that this was not his original place he started off from, he's been here for 15 years, killed the original owners of this establishment, it was ruled by a king and queen Werewolf tribe that has been living in this area for many years, he chose this place because it was smaller than most kingdoms and it was the farthest from civilization, his only mistake was the selling of many women of many species. Turns out he also stole and sold many Fae Folk, Witches, Werewolves, Humans, Vampires, Even a few mermaids he managed to get. As for who bought them, I found he has a hiding place far from here where he would sometimes go alone and keep documents on every single person in his stolen Palace. I promise, I will not rest until I find every single female of every species and hopefully by the Night Goddess that they are still alive, I will kill the buyers on the spot for this crime. As for Demetri, he will have a long slow death. He will have my father to do it. I can tell you know he cannot wait to get his hands on Demetri. Those who follow Demetri will receive death. No one is to show mercy to his followers. I got all my answers from this filth at my feet. If there's any witch out there can tell me the location of Samuel Christianson, please come forth Now!" Timothy growled the last part the ground vibrating with his power.
Then, a small woman appeared in the crowd, she must've been hiding this whole time. "Show yourselves witches and warlocks! I can see you all but the other cannot!!" Timothy roared at the crowd. And just like that there were more people than I thought. Gasps sounding from everywhere all around me, I knew there were more people. Another power Timothy has up his sleeve. The woman went walking towards Timothy with a tall Huskey built man who had sandy blonde hair that was in a long ponytail going down his shoulder blades to his lower back. He took a knee in front of Timothy and said, "I am Samuel Christianson Son of Demetri. You may read me if you like." He bared his neck to Timothy who extended his fangs and sunk them into his neck.
Jake glanced at me again, then we looked back and watched as Timothy read through his memories, like he did with Demetri. I knew what Jake must have been thinking, that we were going to waiting long again. Just when I was going to say something to Jake, that maybe we should go help our parents, then Timothy pulls back from Samuels neck and tells him to stand up then he faces the crowd again, "Samuel has been in hiding from his father for the past 20 years that Demetri started the selling of women. Samuel had begged the witches to help him, little did he know that his grandmother Flora." He gestured at the short women beside Samuel, "Is his grandmother, she's a powerful witch, I saw her through his eyes and heard her story from his ears and saw what I needed. Samuel saw that his father was going dark shortly after his mother passed away and he was afraid of his father, his father was making him do horrible things to innocent wolves and vampires, so he asked a witch to help him and she did and she lead him to his grandmother, little did he know that the witch was ordered to be his guardian from his grandmother behind Demetri's back. Demetri thought she was just a servant for his son, she hid her scent for many years. Now that we got everything sorted, Let's continue the clean up and my men to lock him up immediately and Samuel you are free to go, all of you witches are free to go as you please, and Samuel? You don't have to hide anymore."
"Thank you Your majesty." Samuel bowed his head and turned around. He had blue eyes, a darkened stubble high cheekbones and he was very handsome, the only thing he got from his father was his hair, he must've looked more like his mother.
"So, what happens now?" Jake asked me.
I opened my mouth to answer but my mother Aria came up and answered before I could, "We are going to clean up this kingdom and celebrate our victory and have a incarnation for me to take my rightful place. It's up to Davina and Derek if they like to stay or go after it is done."
