Celestial Wulf Chronicles Book# 5 Sacrifice's

WILLING SACRIFICE

My body's ethereal pulsations are in harmony with that of the pulsating sigils in the training grounds. Witnessing the blood rage leave Canela. Then, equivalent to a tsunami, a celestial power washes over me. "They're coming. They will not deter me," Phasing to my wulf form. summoning multiple diamond shard guardian wulves. "My Alpha will RETURN TO US! return her to me." And begins chanting. "By the spirits of before and those of my pack......" Only to be cut off by Alejandro as he lands from his leap through the portal. "BELLS, NOOO!!"

Emerging from the portal. I see Alejandro stops just out of range of her wulves. His Prime Alpha voice has no effect on her or her summoned astral wulves. Who, upon seeing him appear, take a stance of defense prepared to fight. Belladonna, stopping her chant, responds to him momentarily, "She is my moon and my mistress. There is still time I will offer the very gift she, my alpha, gave for my reincarnation, my immortality. I am BELLADONNA GUARDIAN OF OUR SPIRITUAL ANCESTORS. I WILL NOT LOSE HER!"

Her astral guardian's head turns to Alejandro as the rest of the pack exit the portal. Crimson ignites into his Celestial form and joins his mate, as does Kodiak. Immediately growling a warning from the summoned wulves. Alejandro looks to Bella, her eyes red as she turns her head about to continue. "BELLS please, this is not the way. She won't come back. I can't lose you too; please don't do this." His voice was pleading.

From behind the protective wulf barrier, Canela hears the desperation in her Prime Alpha tone, speaks softly with equal pain in her manner but gentle to Bella "Bella, no. Hermana. Let her rest." Walking over slowly, her head & tail down, she lays her body atop ESTRELLA'S. Resting her head on the one, she called pack sister, gently licking Estrella's ear. "Bye mi Hermana (My Sister)."

Bella roars, but her Wulf Speak is cracking, revealing her own pain. "NOOOO!! Canela, you must move. I WILL KILL YOU FOR HER!! SHE IS MY Alpha. I MUST...." And my wulf son's reaction is deadly.

Hearing this, Crimson growls threateningly. His head snaps to Alejandro. "THAT IS MY WULF MOTHER MATE!"

Alejandro phases, holding a hand up to crimson and his son.  "She is in pain. Please mate. I won't bear to lose Toti's first Beta. Let me handle this." Necromio glares. Then, his power recedes, his lips lower. "I will be watching, mate. If I see...."

ALejandro cuts him off, "She won't." Turning, he slowly confidently approaches the astral guardian wulves standing before them. "Bells no, it's mom."

I look to phantom wulves who bow their heads, "She is in great anguish blinded to our oath. It is why she summoned you. I will not lose her. ..move." and this time, they do. Crimson follows me in, no longer in his full celestial guardian form.

I reach up, touching the muzzle of the ice blue, white wulf with red eyes, emitting intense fog speaking with a voice racked with pain. "Bells. I want her back also; I don't know how I will live without her. But this is not fair. She died with honor Bells protecting us. Protecting you, the little treasure she loved, and I can't lose you too. Please look bells. Canela is willing to die beside her to honor who she is to us. Who...mom was."

Bells sit, lowering her head and whines. "I love her, Alejandro. My life lost its meaning." "I know bells, but look at Canela. She will sacrifice her life to honor her as the guardian she was. We all will honey, pls don't do this. I won't lose you too."

Bella looks at Canela. She disperses her guardians, her fog stops. Silently, she gets up with a lowered head and walks to Canela, whose head now rests on mom's neck, whimpering.

Bella phases, tucking her small Maltese body against mom's chest, laying down between mom's forelegs and hind legs. "My...My Alpha." Never once does she stop whining, pushing her small head in between mom's forelegs inching in, pressing her body closer still.
