Joining the Alpha's Pack

Chapter 21

Ara laughed as she hung up the phone. She'd called her brother and uncle to tell them the news. The day before finding out she was pregnant, Ara had gotten the news from Talon, that the other clans didn't want to join war against Monroe. It had been hard at first to swallow. She'd been so angry but time with her pack had made things better. Somehow they would manage. Today though, she could hear the clan screaming in celebration as Talon shared the news of her pregnancy with them. It was rare for a vampire to have a child; she herself had been the last to be born 2000 years ago. Peter kissed her forehead as she hung up. " They are happy I take it?" he said smiling and she nodded. Peter lay his hand over her belly, rubbing softly. Suddenly there was a commotion outside. It had started to get dark earlier as Summer turned into Autumn and everyone in the pack house rushed outside to see what was going on.

Scott was outside, on his knees. Chris was beside him and he was holding something. Smelling blood, Ara and Peter rushed over. Ara gasped she saw Isaac's nearly lifeless body. Ara cried as she sank to her knees beside Scott and Chris. She had only met Isaac a few times but he seemed nice, fun loving. " You can't save him Ara, it will endanger the baby." peter said and she nodded. Then a thought hit her. " Scott, there is a chance he can be saved. The clan! my uncle or brother's blood won't heal him as fast as mine but it will change him!" She said. Scott looked to Chris and he shrugged. " It may be his only chance, I know Allison would want us to save him no matter what." Chris said. Scott nodded. Lydia ended up being the one to take Isaac to the clan while Ara called ahead to let them know she was coming and asking her uncle to save him. " I will do all I can." Talon said right before they hung up. " This is Monroe's way of saying she is coming for us." Chris said and Scott nodded. He called everyone around. " We need to be ready now. Everyone needs to be on high alert!" Scott said.

At the Clan house...

Talon lifted the body of the werewolf out of the car. he was nearly gone, his heartbeat slowing at a fast rate. " Drago ready the conversion chamber!" he said. The clan parted like the red sea as Talon carried the young man through the house and deep into the basement. This war with Monroe was getting more violent. The stupid human woman didn't care if anyone saw what she was doing. To the human race, it would appear as though she were torturing and murdering other humans. She was bringing unwanted attention to everyone and it pissed Talon off. Especially now that Ara was pregnant. It would be the first vampire birth in 2000 years. Talon and Drago took turns, giving Isaac their blood. It took hours and they thought he might not survive but finally just as dawn lit the sky, Isaac's scent changed and the DNA bonding began. Talon was exhausted but he needed to talk to the other clan heads before he laid down to rest. he growled as the other heads complained about the late hour. The tone of his growl made it clear he was done with their snivelling and they quieted. " As the rightful King of our people, I am overriding your vote to stay out of the fighting. My niece is pregnant. The first birth in thousands of years!" he snarled. " We will all fight in this war because if anything happens to Ara or the young she carries, I will destroy each and every one of you!" he snarled. When he finished that call, he called Ara. " It is done. The young wolf will live." he told her. She was so relieved, thanking him over and over. He told her to be careful and ended the call. Now it was time to prepare for war.
