"Let's go to Lina." Rylie immediately went towards Kelly and held her arms.
Kelly was about to go to where Alpha Gab and Aly is. The tall woman looked at her then to her mates, before wincing.
"Rylie... I think we should go the Alpha as a courtesy."
"But this couldn't wait. I need to know how to have a pseudo-moon."
Kelly looked at Alpha Gab again.
'It's alright Kelly. I can hear what you two are saying from here. What is a pseudo-moon?'
Crap! Rylie face palmed and Kelly and her looked at each other.
"Tell her the truth. I don't need to hide anything anyway." Rylie sighed.
'It's a magic that mimics the full-moon. Lina might know how to perform it.'
'It's alright. Rylie needs it to be able to harness her Lobo form. We need that if ever we go into battles.'
'Thank you, Alpha Gab.'
Rylie bowed her head down before turning away. She knows that Aly was still watching her but she doesn't want to look at Aly right now. She was just being civil with the Alpha. But she was still irritated that they didn't tell her about the attack. More so with Aly because she was her mate.
But she wasn't really truthful either but Aly doesn't have to know that.
'We'll get going then. Alpha Gab, Beta Aly.'
Kelly bowed her head down before walking beside her. The taller woman had a question in her eyes as they looked at her.
"Rylie, don't be mad. Come on."
Rylie scoffed. "They didn't tell me about the attack. Wouldn't you be mad too?"
Kelly sighed. "I'm sorry, Rylie but I think Alpha Gab and Aly doesn't want you to worry. You still have so much to worry for. They don't want to add anymore."
"Are you siding with them?" Her voice raised an octave.
Kelly immediately put her hands up. "N-No of course not, but I can see why they did what they did. You don't have to be irritated with me. I am your friend you know."
"I'm sorry. I-I just don't want anyone lying to me." Like her father did. Rylie thought.
Kelly didn't say anything with what she said, only bowed her head down and looking away. Rylie's eyebrows furrowed. Kelly had been truthful to her and maybe Kelly felt like she wasn't telling the truth before but now she trusts Kelly more than ever.

"What are you doing here again, Kelly?" Lina looked irritated once she settled her eyes on Rylie. "And you brought along the person who accused me of taking the vials."
Rylie knew that Lina still hates her. She can't really blame the witch. She can understand why Lina looks like she would murder her right on the spot. Lina's left eyebrow is raised and she had her arms on her waist. But Rylie needs the pseudo-moon and Lina is the only witch they know that could help her.
If they go to Nora, that means that the heretic witch will get another favor to ask from them and she doesn't want that to happen.
She now knew that Lina didn't betray them. It was Kelly but she knew that even though Kelly was the one who took the vials. She can't really tell Kelly to get it because they will compromise the plan.
Rylie bowed her head down. "I'm sorry, Lina. I knew it was wrong of me to accuse you of that. You were with us for the battle against the were-witches and you don't have a motive to take it."
Lina opened her mouth, huff then crossed her arms. "So that's it? You'll say sorry and I'll accept it? What are you really doing here?"
Rylie looked at Kelly. She badly needed help from the taller woman. She can't step towards Lina because of the seals and the wards. Because they have agreed that they will respect Lina's coven and don't betray them.
Kelly winced and scratched her head. She walked towards the witch. "Lina. We need your help with a pseudo-moon----"
"No." Lina turned around and walked inside the mansion.
The 5 witches of Lina's coven looked at her with hatred before following their priestess.
Rylie bit her lip and closed her eyes tightly before opening them. She deserves Lina's hatred but she'll do whatever it takes to be able to harness her Lobo form's power. She can't win against Nora if she doesn't do it. It was the only way.
She went down on both of her knees. "Lina, please. I'm begging you. I need your help. I don't want to beg you but I am doing it for the children. They don't deserve what happened to them and if you want to take revenge on me for accusing you. I am willing to take it. J-Just please help us."
Kelly looked at her with pity and sadness in her eyes.
They both know who the real culprit behind the two vials missing was but she can't really blame Kelly either. They need to play with cards life dealt with them.
"Please, Lina. We are already begging." Kelly then crouched with her knees too.
Rylie's eyes widen. She can't believe that Kelly would do the same.
Kelly smiled at her and nodded her head. Maybe it was her way of making amends for her betrayal.
Rylie felt warmth surge thru her. What matters is not the wrong doings but how you make amends anyway.
"Lina!"
The high priestess stopped and looked at her. For a moment Lina looked conflicted. Her mouth opens and closes but there's no word coming out of her mouth.
Lina sighs. "You two are making me look bad."
"Please help us. It would be a great help for the whole pack. You want to have peace for all the supernatural. We want the same thing." Rylie said.
"Alright." Lina walked towards her and lifted her by her arms. "Stand up and I'll teach you the ritual."
"So you know how to make a pseudo-full moon?" Kelly's eyes are big as saucers.
Lina nodded her head and puffed her chest out. "I'm a genius after all."
Rylie smiled. Then she took Lina's hands to grasp it. "Thank you so much."
"Don't take me just yet. I still don't have the pseudo-full moon for you." Lina flick her finger in a soft circular motion and inclined her head towards the mansion. "Let's go inside. All the materials that I need are there."
Rylie winced. "But I don't have permission to enter your mansion right?"
Lina chuckled. Kelly was just looking at the two of them with a smile on her face.
"You can't enter before but I lifted it for you so come inside."
"Oh... alright." Rylie followed the two when they entered Lina's mansion.
She felt a surge of hope for everyone in the pack and all the peace abiding supernatural. At least right now they all had the same goal and that is peace for everyone.
