'Once In A Blue Moon' (ON HOLD)

Chapter Eighteen

1918

Genevieve's POV

"You're finally home!" I shout and wrap my arms around Luke, he laughs deeply.

"Hey mum. Where's Adam?!"

"Luke! Finally I haven't seen you since you came home for a holiday a year ago!" Annabelle says and embraces him quickly.

"LUKE!" We hear the loudest shout from Adam, he vamps speeds down the stairs towards his mate and hugs him passionately.

"Thank God, you're back. We couldn't take another night of Adam's constant whining." Anna says, we all burst into laughter.

"Vi sweetheart could you call a pack meeting please?" I ask my sister, she nods happily before hugging Luke quickly. We all sprint to the meeting room those returned following close behind us. It's a surprise for once, nobody knows that they were returning today, I giggle quietly before stopping outside the double doors. "Wait here guys." They nod excitedly.

"Hello everybody!" I shout to my pack, which now had over six hundred Lycans and our numbers were still growing. Many had had children so the school had to be expanded, as did the house thank Goddess it wasn't noticed. My pack cheer happily when they see me so excited. "I have a surprise for all of you and I know you will love it." Their faces contort into confusion. I grin. "Come in guys!"

The boys flood in and chaos ensues, all of their families, mates, children sprint straight towards their lost boy. I thought that was a rather creative name for them. "I think we should celebrate!" I shout in my sing song voice, before disappearing into the garden.

I wave my hand and the decorations, food and drinks appear across the field. Everyone storms out of the house for the food table, I giggle at their immaturity. I do what I usually do and sprint to the front of my pack. I launch myself up into the air and fireworks spark from my fingers, I smile at the sensation.

Violet quickly joins me, we join hands and the sparks increase, Mother finally joins us and the sparks reach a brightness so intense it lights up the night. The whole pack drops to their knees in reverence, I grin toothily.

I drop back on to the stage and stand in front of the microphone, "Well today is a brilliant day and I don't want to take up too much of your time, so I'll keep this short. I love you all, I couldn't ask for a better pack, a better family. I am proud of every single one of you and I thank you all for your hard work over the years. And I hope this pack continues to grow in size and in love. Now back to the festivities." Once I had finished my speech I had tears in my eyes as did many others.

The party ended sometime between 5-7am, us Lycans sure love to party. We all sleep until around 4pm before waking up and eating everything out of the cupboards, I suppose someone will have to go grocery shopping, that someone being me.

I frown deeply when I reach the wall on which we keep the pictures, one had a warning on it. Written in what smelled like blood. 'Our future generations will come for you.' I snarl at the threat. Luckily for them they can't attack us until the peace treaty has been removed from power, which is a century and a bit from now.

I tear it from the wall, to stop it from frightening the others. I cast a spell to hide it from anyone's eyes but my own. I consider the threat that we will face a century from now, I have a feeling that the rogue population will grow substantially, but unfortunately for them ours will too.

I grin evilly, I will destroy the rogues and their witch consorts for what they did to Papa all those years ago.

Good luck Rogues, I'm coming for you.
