Chapter 16

"Straight your arms! Straight your legs!" Night said while Ava is in the handstand position.

'I'm trying!" Ava answered with annoyance in her voice.

"Focus on your posture! Don't bend your knees!" Night shouted when Ava did the cartwheel.

"Balance your body! Concentrate on your core!" Night shouted again.

Ava wanted to scream because she's having difficulties in doing the gymnastics routines. Her arms, her legs, her whole body is screaming of pain. Last week was really tiring but thanks to Night's irritating voice, she had finished the calisthenics exercises but now, gymnastics is giving her a hard time.

"Spread your legs!" Ava rolled her eyes while doing the splits.

"Jump! Roll! Hop! Come on Ava, you can do it!" Night can see that Ava was having a hard time but she knew Ava was also trying her best to complete the routine she had given her.

..........

"It's been a week Alpha. I think we better go back." Malcolm said and Jakobe deeply sighed. 

After a week of searching, they failed to find the place where the black hole appeared and disappeared. They've talked to some of the rouges that were wandering off the human world but they failed to get the information they needed.

"Tell Charlotte and Daniel that we're leaving." Jakobe said.

"Yes, Alpha." Malcolm said.

.........

"You're exhausting her, Night." Nevaeh said looking at Ava who was sleeping soundly.

"I'm just preparing her." Night answered.

"Give her a break." Nevaeh said.

"Time is fast. Clock is ticking." Night said that made Nevaeh looked at Ava then sighed.

"She had to be strong not only in her body but also her mind. You knew how painful shifting is. She needs to prepare, we need to prepare not only for our union, not only for the shifting process but also, the return of her memories." Night said.

"And the beginning of her new journey." Nevaeh said.

"The beginning of her new life." Night continued.

.........

"Welcome back, son." Ella said while hugging Jakobe.

"Thanks, Mom. How are you? How's everyone?" Jakobe said before slumping his body on the sofa.

"Your Dad was having a hard time doing the Alpha duties once again and he will be relieve now that you're already here." Jakobe smiled hearing what her mother have said.

"Your brother didn't left me alone as what he promised you." Jakobe looked at his brother then gave him a thumbs up.

"Have you find anything?" Ella saw the sadness in Jakobe's eyes. 

"Nothing, Mom. We have searched the whole forest. We have talked to different rouges and non-shifters but, we got nothing. I'm starting to lose my grip, Mom." Ella felt Jakobe's disappointment.

"Jakobe..." Ella wasn't able to finish her words because Jakobe stood up suddenly.

"Alpha, Alpha Truett announced their arrival." Beta Karsyn said through the mind link.

"Okay. I'm coming." Jakobe said and left her mother that was thankful because of Truett's arrival.

..........

"Master, the Alpha of the Timber Wolf Pack already left the human world." One of the rouge said. His Master only nodded as a response on what he reported.

"Master, what should we do? The Alphas of the Timber Wolf Pack, the Red Wolf Pack, and the Tundra Wolf Pack are looking also for the woman and the wolf you're after." The rouge continued.

"Let them be. One of them will lead me to her. Let's be patient. Understand?" The Master said and the rouge nodded then left.

"Patience is bitter but its fruit is sweet. I will wait for you princess. Your sweetness will be mine." The Master said and then smiled wickedly.

..........

"Anything about the shield?" Jakobe asked hoping that Truett did find something.

"The family doesn't know anything about the shield but I think a witch or a fairy did placed the shield for Ava's protection. When we arrived at the place, we encountered rouges trying to destroy the shield. They did had a hard time destroying it but when we tried to enter, we passed it with no difficulties at all." Truett said.

"Rouges are known to be dishonest, scoundrel, and mischievous." Jakobe said while in deep thought.

"The shield knew that the rouges are dangerous and they will bring harm to the people inside its protected area. The shield also knew that we are not one of them." Truett said.

"What if the black hole and the shield are connected to each other?" Truett said that made Jakobe combed his hair using his fingers. Things are getting and getting difficult to understand.

"I will go there. I need to see her home. Maybe, just maybe, I can find something in there." Jakobe said.

"What will you tell to her parents if you go and meet them?" Truett asked.

"I'm her mate. I mean, her boyfriend." Jakobe answered.

"Duh! Do you think they will believe you?" Truett said.

"Then, go there unseen." Jakobe said.

"Much better." Truett said.

..........

"I'm almost tempted to tell him that we knew something but remembering Jianna, I can't. We will help our son but I will put Jianna's daughter in danger." Ella said.

"If only we could tell him everything, things will be easy for him." Neo said.

"What is it, Mom, Dad?" The couple were flabbergasted hearing their youngest son's voice. Their faces became pale.

"Oh no, nothing, Draco." Ella said messing her son's hair.

"Who's Jianna?" Ella and Neo looked at each other.

"She's my bestfriend." Ella answered Draco's question.

"Where is she?" Ella sighed and looked at her husband asking for help.

"She's already up there." Neo said while pointing up.

"She's at the attic?" Ella and Neo smiled hearing their son's words.

"No, Draco. She's an angel now guiding us." Ella said and when Draco nodded, they sigh because of relief.

..........

"No! No! Stop! Stop!" Night woke up hearing Ava's screams.

"Mom! Dad!" Ava screamed again.

"Ava, wake up! Your having a nightmare." Night said licking Ava's face.

"No! Mom! Stop! Dad!" Ava screamed again and Night had no other choice.

"Ouch!" Ava said then looked at Night who bit her.

"You're having a bad dream." Night said.

"But why you have to bite me?" Ava said looking at the wound Night did.

"My tongue was already swollen but you didn't wake up so must do something more helpful." Night said that made Ava touched her face.

"Yuck! You're really gross, Night!" Ava said then walked towards the bath to wash her face.
