Triple Alpha Threat: Book 1

Ch. 66 - Fear

Kiera POV

I jolted in my bed, a small thin mattress above two other bunk beds. My hand rested to my chest and tears flowed too fast down my face.

"Luna, are you ok!" Andy was at my bedside immediately. My eyes wandered around the room in a panic as I tried to get a hold of reality again.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just another stupid dream." I whispered with a quiver to my words. That was way too vivid. I could remember their touch, the scent of their skin, and the incredible bond we shared with each other.

"You still get those?" Andy questioned, his eyes soft and comforting.

"Yeah, they come and go. It's been almost a month since I had one. This one was really messed up."

"Do you want to grab some coffee and talk about it?"

"No!" I shouted, then cleared my throat. "I don't want to ever think about it again. My mind is just confused. One thing is certain though, we need to leave the North."

"We will follow you, Luna, and no one will hurt you again. We will fight with you, whatever it takes." I could see the devotion in his eyes. I can't believe I thought they all turned their backs on me.

"Thank you, Andy, but I'm the one that needs to protect you, and I can't do that here." At least not with my body craving three Alpha douch bags with incredible dicks.

"We need to protect each other." He gave me a soft smile filled with friendship. My heart ached as it reminded me of Devon. We have lost too much and it was time we took it all back.

"Give me ten minutes, then let's get started. We have a lot to do and only threes days to do it." I said, laying back down to my bed and Andy went to grab clothes.

My mind replayed the dream in my head. It started out amazing, a rush of emotions and desires I never thought possible, but the end left a sour taste in my mouth. One thing was always constant though, I had a son, and he wanted me dead. Could the oracles be speaking the truth? Will I give birth to a child of the dark forest? I didn't even know what that meant.

'Athena, you are still with me?' I asked hopeful, I felt her inside my soul, but after the way my nightmare felt, I had to be sure.

'I'm here, Kiera. Nothing is separating us again. It was just a dream.' She sounded confident, but I knew she was as shooken as I was.

'That was a damn nightmare, Athena. Why do we dream so vividly like that?'

'I think it was a warning.' She said. 'We desire the Alphas too much and maybe it's better to keep our distance.'

'No morning fixes from our boys?' I tried teasing her, but my words were weak with fear.

'I didn't say all that. We just need to be careful, and we need to find out more about this forest.'

'We need to leave as soon as possible.'

It was a quite a moment between us as we contemplated what was the next step we should take. I felt Athena's reluctance to leave, even though she wouldn't admit it. We felt safe here, with the Alphas, but we can't be so foolish to rely on a man like that again. I needed to feel safe by myself, confident with who I am, and not because of what powerful man stood at my side.

'Do you think that man I dreamt about before, the one with hair like mine and eyes like the Alphas, is the same son from this dream, the dark forest's child? River called him Sebastian. We never heard his name before.'

'I think we are afraid of what those oracles told us about giving them a child, and now that we are mixed up with the brothers we are connecting dots that aren't there. I heard what River said in our dream too, but we can't move through time, Kiera. It's impossible.'
