CHAPTER 12

It was about an hour later that Andrew walked into the house.
"You would not believe what that idiot tried to do. He saw us coming, left his family and ran towards the border. Alex was actually the one to catch him. They are all down in the holding cells waiting for you, in my opinion that guy is guilty but I don't think the wife and kid knows anything." "Do you think you can do this Conner, I don't want you to do this if it's too much?"
This man says things that make me love him more than I already do but this is what I have to do. I have to protect the pack not just me.
"I have to do this, not just for me but for the pack. My power activated when Andrew came in. It seems to increase when powers are close to each other, I noticed that when Dad was hugging the life out of me."
"Okay, as long as you are sure."
As we made our way out of the pack house I held onto Michael's arm as we made our way to the cells. Seeing the pack members with my spirit sight was a little unnerving. Imagine seeing just people, no land, no buildings. I was pleased that little who we passed were grey but I did stop us by the cubs that were running around.
"Michael can we talk to the person in charge of the cubs please."
"Why?"
"Can you see the two boys holding hands. They both have powers. One is green for earth and the other is blue like Aunt Gwen, water."
"I'll ask. Excuse me miss, can I ask about the cubs?"
"Of course Alpha, I look after the cubs that have no family, be it because of rogue attacks, accidental or natural deaths. I look after them all in the big house just down the road."
I could remember that the pack was like a small town but I never came this way before.
"Please call me Michael, would you mind if we spoke to the two boys that are holding hands?"
"Not at all. Richard, Gavin can you come over here please?"
I saw their auras walking towards us and I just knew that they were our boys, so did Elzar. My only wish was that Michael felt the same and the boys wanted to be with us. "Hi boys, I'm the new Alpha and this is the new Luna. We were wondering if you like being in the pack orphanage or if you had the chance would you like to be part of a big family?"
Right then I knew Michael felt the same as me and I squeezed his hand to let him know I felt the same. Those boys were ours.
"Who would the new family be?"
I could feel Michael bend down to be eye level with the boys.
"It would be me and Conner, that's if you want to be ours." "Gavin, what do you think?"
"Can we call you Daddy?"
"Yes, most definitely. In fact that would have to be a rule?" I could hear them start to giggle at Michael. I felt a small hand grab mine and my heart just melted.
"I'm Richard, does that make you my Dad?"
"I would very much like to be. Do you know what a rare wolf is?"
"No, what's that? Are you one?"
"Yes I am but so are you and Gavin."
"What does that mean? Can you do magic or something then?"
I knelt down and whispered.
"Yes but it's a secret."
He was giggling so much I thought he would fall over.
"Did you know that to get magic it has to take a little something from you? I can't see so I got a lot of magic."
"I can't smell and Gavin can't hear in one ear, does that mean we'll get magic too?"
"Yes but not until you're older. What ages are you and Gavin?"
"I'm six and Gavin is five. Are we old enough yet?"
I giggled at that.
"Not quite yet, you have to be as old as me and I'm eighteen. You have to be all grown up so you can learn how to use the magic or someone could get hurt. I have to learn because my magic just came so I have to be very careful. So, would you two like to be our boys?"
They seemed to huddle together talking it over then turned around and shouted "YES" much to mine and Michael's delight. Michael must of mind-linked his Dad to come out to us.
"Hey boys, this guy here is your new Granddad and he wants to take you to the pack house to get some dinner. Your new Grandpa and Nana are in the house too. We'll be in soon to help pick new rooms for you, ok."
"Cool, come on Richard I'm hungry and they have food." "Are you trying to make me feel old? Granddad, really. First a mate now kids. What's next! Come on my little munchkins you can call me Papa D."
I was laughing so much I didn't realize my fire power had come on until I felt the heat on my hands. I could hear the boys gasp and I concentrated on putting the flame out. "Wow Dad that was so cool. Can you do it again?"
"Not right now maybe later. I told you I still have to learn how to use it myself. Now go and get some food in those tummies because it sounds like they're growling at me."
"Ok Dad, bye Daddy."
They both took hold of 'Papa D's' hands and went off into the pack house giggling as they went.
"Michael, I think my powers are connected to my emotions."
"We'll talk about that later. Let's get to the holding cells and finish so we can get back to the boys."
So off we went.
