Chapter 101

Myra's point of view

I made it to the little girl's side on the bed when a loud bang stilled the ruse in the room. Tension dimmed, and the air shifted into a dark aura.

My gaze flicked at the entrance, and there he was. His palms fisted, and eyes a gleaming shade of ruby. Anger pulsed at every inch of his face, and I could smell the danger he is with the much inches that separated us.

"You!" His teeth barred as he keyed his darkened gaze on Logan.

"No!" I grabbed the little girl's arm as I teleported the both of us to where Logan was, then touched Logan as we all disappeared out of the room.

I brought us back to the cottage, right inside the room I'd came to see Logan when I woke up.

Logan and I chose the same time to let out a deep breath of relief as we detached to gather our thoughts on what's next.

"Where are mine?"

My attention was drawn to the fragile voice from beside me that reminded me of the little girl we brought with us.

I quickly scooted down to her level, an assuring smile on my face as I held her palms softly in mine. "We're not here to hurt you, or anything. I promise you that we want to keep you safe, my name is Myra and that man over there is my mate, Logan," I gave her a brief explanation.

"You kidnapped me, you made Daddy angry and kick down the wall, you also hurt Uncle Eli and nearly killed him. Why should I trust you?"

For a little girl that she is, she's a really smart one as she threw out her suspicions and slowly backed away from me.

"Uncle Eli and your daddy are bad people," Logan cut into the discussion.

"My Daddy is not a bad person, neither is Uncle Eli. The both of them are protecting me from the evil of this world, like the two of you." She backed further away from me, shrinking into the wall that was behind her.

I sighed in frustration, this was not a stress I'm seriously interested in. Though what did I expect? That I'm just gonna let her know we can be trusted, and the sail will go on smooth. Hilarious.

"Is that what your father told you?" I asked as I slowly approached her.

"Did you know your father murdered-" I paused at the evident fear in her eyes, and instead turned to look at Logan and established a mind-link between us.

'I don't have time for this, do your psychic tricks and get her on our side. This is for her own good, I know she'll be grateful one day,' I suggested.

There is now way I'd be able to convince her that her father is the bad guy, she's a little girl who grew up on her father's belief. And who am I? A stranger who kidnapped her from her safe place and hurt someone she likes.

I can play the bad guy for sometime, so long as it honored the promise I made to Linda.

'She's an omega like you, probably immune to my telepathic control but not attack. I can shut her mind down, long enough for us to get out of her without having her as an issue?'

'Yes, yes, do that.' I concurred, and right the next second I witnessed the little girl fell to the floor unconscious.

"She was never going to believe anything I said, it's better this way. She's going to find out the truth one day and realize we're on our side, that we did what we did to save her. Now we need to get out of here!" I said to Logan as I carried her off the floor and lay her on the bed.

"Reach out to Deena, she should be done. We need to move before Lucas comes for us. I can only imagine what he'd do to us right now if he gets to us."

"Deena is here," Logan announced as he went out of the room.

I followed him swiftly, and he was right. Deena was just coming into the house.

"Guys what happened? The palace is in total chaos, guards are disbursed to every corner of this palace. Are we safe?" She questioned in a tensed tone, high on alert as she kept looking around and behind her.

"We need to leave now!" I deadpanned.

"I'll get the girl," Logan excused himself to go into the room, in which he return the next second with the girl threw on his shoulder.

"Who is that?" Deena asked about the stranger we have with us.

"Everybody come close," I instructed as they all obliged and converged close. "I'm going to teleport us back to the pack, we can form an actual plan there. Are we ready?"

Logan nodded, I look at Deena and she also nodded. I took both their hands in mine as I close my eyes and wished for us to jump through time and space.

When I opened my eyes, we were still in the cottage and not in the pack.

What's going on?

'Yeah what's going on?' Salome too spoke up on confusion.

I tried it again and nothing worked still.

"Myra are you okay?" Logan asked, his voice soft as he leaned closer to me.

"My powers, I- I- I can't. I- I- don't know. It's-" I found it hard to form a coherent sentence. What's going on with me and my powers?

Logan moved away to lay the girl he has on his shoulder on the couch, and then came back to me as he drop his hands on my shoulder and pulled me into his chest.

"Calm down love, everything will be okay. Tell me what's going on?" His soothing voice tethered at my tension.

I sighed in distress, "I can't teleport us for some reasons I'm not aware of? I mean I was able to get us here, so why can't I get us fully out of here?"

"Don't stress it love, I'm here for you, to help in anyway I can. If we can't jump our way out of here, then let's do it the old fashioned way. Either way, we're getting out alright? Look at me,"

His finger grazed on my chin as he tipped my face up to look at him. I relaxed at the rum beauty of his eyes, that gentle smile on his face.

"This is a much better look on you, worry doesn't suit that pretty face." He pinched softly on my cheek that extracted a chuckle out of me.

"You give it one more try, and if it doesn't work then we go off the old fashioned way. Agreed!"

I nodded in agreement as I closed my eyes and gathered all my strength, seriously hoping I don't fail this time around.

Logan went back to carry the little girl, and once again I attempted a teleport from here to our pack back at home. Upon opening my eyes, we were still standing on the same spot.

"The old fashioned way it is," Logan proclaimed.

What's wrong with my powers suddenly?
