The Witch and Her Alphas

Birthday Scare

Young Lisa POV

I am woken up by a nightmare that makes no sense. All I saw was me crying for my grandma as she left me in a strange and scary place. I couldn't find Lu, and then I saw my grandma die which was strange because I know grandma told me that our family has the gift of life whatever that means so she can't die right? I'm not a morning person, so you can imagine the frustration I felt it's still only 4am.

It's now 6am, and I can't help the excitement building as it's my tenth birthday today. Even though my morning started way too early because of my nightmare but it's OK because Lu and grandma always make it special. I rushed to the kitchen in time to catch my best friend Lu and grandma putting the finishing touches to my cake and I couldn't help the smile that formed on my face at seeing a 2 tier chocolate and red velvet cake as I've always been so obsessed with two flavors unable to pick just one between the two. After getting the weirdest bunch of gifts that make no sense to a ten year old, I got some hot chocolate and started to tell grandma and Lu about my dream. All grandma did was nod as I saw tears pool in her eyes. She pulled me to her lap, which I feel a bit too old for, but seeing her reaction chose not to protest like I usually did let her hug me for a while before she finally spoke.
