Runaway Wolf

Chapter 31

Sage's P.O.V

Recap:
"Welcome back Sage.... welcome back Ryker."

I hear a groan to my right. "Ryker." I whisper under my breath. His eyes meet mine and I know that the real Ryker, my Ryker, is back. "Sage." He tries to get up, but fails, crumbling back into his seat like a slushy. "You'll both be weak for a little while. Just stay still while we get you something to eat and drink," my mother says. "It's good to have you back bro," the boys do their guy handshake thing, "Good to be back," he replies.

"What was it like being controlled by a love potion,"
"Yeah, what was it like," Faith and Alex ask, "Guys," I scold them, "It's fine Sage," Ryker turns to the girls, "It was absolute torture. Everytime I wanted to tell that conniving bitch to go to hell, I instead said some gushy shit like I love you. I had no control over what my body did when it came to her. I felt like a goddamn robot," he turns to me, "the hardest thing for me was not being able to do this," he then scoots over to me and lays a big one on my desiring lips. Oh how good it feels to have the love of my life back in my arms.

"Get a room," Gabe yells, "How about you leave this one," I shoot back and everyone "ooohs" and "aaaaaaahs". "Whatever," he mumbles under his breath while crossing his arms like a child.

Just then, my mother walks into the room with two sandwiches, two bags of chips, and two waters. She hands the food over to me and Ryker. As we begin to eat, I hear shuffling to my left. Only then do I realize, that traitorous bitch is still here. She sits up and looks around confused. She looks at me and smirks. She then turns to Ryker, "I just had the weirdest dream babe, you wouldn't believe it. It's also weird how I'm sleeping on this table that was in my dream, but whatever. Ready to go?" I almost snort in her face.

"Are you slow, stupid, or both? You should be glad you're even still breathing," Ryker states darkly. She looks a little taken back, "R-Ryker. What is up with you right now?"
"You're what's up with me. You literally programmed me into believing I was in love with. You almost made me lose my family, most importantly, my mate and two unborn child," he says putting emphasis on the words mate and two unborn children.

"I've been praying for the day that you'll finally get what's coming your way."
"Well, I guess you'd have to catch me first," she good out of her seat and makes a dash for the door but I pick her up with my levitation powers and set her back in her spot on the table. She chuckles, "Think you're the only one with special gifts? Think again sweety," her eyes then turn a distant grey color and the ground begins to shake.

"Mom, what's happening? What is she doing," my mother gasps, the queen speaks before her though "She's summoning demons. We have to get out of here now. It's too dangerous. Everyone huddle," we gather in a big hug and soon we're back at the queens castle. "What the hell was that," Case exclaims, "She's stronger than I thought."
"What do you mean by that exactly," Kevin digs, "By that, I mean I knew she was obtaining dark magic,  but I didn't realize they were that strong already. You have to be extremely powerful to contact the underworld, let alone summon beings that are banished there."

"I feel sick," as soon as my sentence is finished a trash can appears in front of me and I hurl my guts into it. Ryker soothes me by rubbing my back and mumbling sweet things in my ear. When I'm feeling less nauseous, we continue the conversation.

"I had a vision of an uprising, a bad one. Do you think Cecilia had anything to do with it," my mother asks A'Thalia, "Maybe, but I'd have to do some more digging. I'll call whenever I find out anything remotely helpful."
"Thank you A'Thalia. It was pleasure to see you and thank you for all your help," my mother and the queen hug and we all thank her, me and Ryker more than the rest.

I sit next to Ryker the car ride back, wrapped in his arms. "I love you Sage."
"I love you too Ryker."

Cecilia's P.O.V

That bitch! How the fuck did they figure it out and how did they break that spell. It makes no fucking sense. I swear, I'm not eating anymore. Whether she has those wretched babies or not, I'm going to do away with Sage, The Moon Goddess, and all of the white wolves if it's the last thing I do.

"Boss. You summoned us," one of the demons asks, "Yes, I did. Just needed to let you know that we will be moving up the schedule. I no longer pity Sage and her family anymore. We'll kill them all.  One of those babies would try to grow up and become The Moon Goddess, so it's a win-win," the demons growl and roar with excitement. "When are we attacking," another one asks, "We will attack in one week. That should be long enough to get the other soldiers I had lined up, here. We will attack late at night when there are less guards patrolling. W.e will be split into three groups that will surround the house and leave them trapped. If they decide to transport out of there, they can't take the whole pack, so they will be leaving families and loved ones back to die, and they wouldn't do that, so we're definitely ready." The anxious crowd of demons rejoice,  knowing the goddess who banished them to the depths of below, will soon be no more.

"Jubilate my friends! You will soon all be free!"

Ryker's P.O.V

It's six am at the moment and I can't sleep. All I can do is sit and watch my darling Sage sleep. I honestly can't believe I almost lost her because of Cecilia. Every time I think about it I get so upset I wanna kill her, but I know that I shouldn't. All I can do is hold her in my arms and thank the goddess above that I was so fortunate to have the best mate anyone could ask for.

As we lie still, I begin to feel Sage shift, and I hear her begin to groan in agony. Within seconds she's screaming her throat out in our bed. "Make it stop! Make it stop," she screams some more, "Sage baby, what's wrong? Are you okay? What's wrong," I begin to panic. She violently grabs for her necklace and luckily it's there. She holds it while continuing to scream, but now she now, she's also mumbling different things. "Cecilia. Demons. Army. Death," I'm not sure what I can take from this, but I know it can't be anything good. In a flash, The Moon Goddess is standing in our bedroom, immediately clutching onto Sage.

"What's wrong with her," I ask almost desperately, "She's having a vision. I believe she had one before,  but the earlier ones can be a bit traumatizing. It's just the brain getting used to them. When I first started getting mine, I couldn't move without screaming bloody murder, so she should be fine."

We comfort her until her pain stops and she's left a tired, sweaty mess. When she gains the strength to speak to she only mutters eight horrifying words,

"Cecilia's going to try to kill us all."
