Sinister Obsession

-16-TOTI

Something is wrong. Toti looks at Randall and me with lingering gazes. As if it would be her last. Something is fucking SERIOUSLY wrong. She has never done that before. Both Randall and I stare intently to her trying to figure it out. Randall shoots me a wulf speak carrying pensive words

"Did ya catch dat sis?"

"Yes, I did. What was that about?"

"Neither one of us is stupid. Mama is hiding something. We know mama Alpha's gift reveals things to her, Things ta come. Could dat be da reason why she jus stared at us dat way? She sees da future and what's to come. Something bad.?"

"That's what concerns me Randall. She is preparing for something. But what? WHAT EXACTLY has she seen?"

A growling baritone wulf speak joins our wulf spoken conversation. Decisive in nature "When we get away from here; LET'S FIND OUT." His tone seriously aggressive still no doubt from the recent occurrence. Reaching where mom, Mima and Don Yonell stood. We start out. In a private wulf speak I ask Kojak "Pa?"

"Yes Mulato"

"You obviously saw that look also?"

"Yes Mulato" Before Mulato can ask me another question and remembering Crimson conversation with me on the plane, I interrupt him "We will find out soon enough my love. If not... we ask. Because too much is happening at once. Almost as if a huge threat is coming and we are being prepared."

"Exactly. But I am not waiting till we get to some spot to find out."

Alejandro's tone is impulsive again. But this time I am the one who stops him "NO. Respect Mulato" throwing in "unless you want another reenactment of what happened last week?" He growls at me in wulf speak "your right, and...... have I told you I hate you right about now.?" throwing in a wink at me. But all four of us look to toti and the elders together.

Estrella uses her one of her vast abilities secretly spying on the conversation Alpha and Luna are having. Remembering that day, the extent we were prepared to discipline Alejandro reveals her own buried pain.

However & immediately, Estrella suppresses that day opening a conversation "I am proud of our cubs Cary. They fortify their bond as it was destined. They have been united with their destined mates." Her voice becoming sullen once more as she reminds us both "The mates..... That already met."

For a moment my beloved wulf whines a small whimper. But once again, Estrella suppresses it. Her tone proud, powerful honoring her next words "We were mothers then Cary, doing what we had to. As we will always. Despite our oath.... We are mothers. Our cubs come first and always have. Never forget that. "

Estrella's words strengthen me. Easing the ache of our past actions. Once more, my breathing returns to normal with my response"Yes my wulf sister. This is true and WE never will. Till our last breath."

For a moment, I think of only my wulf companion and the years we have had bonded as companions "Star?" Remembering how with simple words we can forget to tell someone dear to you. How much they mean.

"Yescary." 

"I realize it has been long since I have told you But...... I love you."

Those words, those words cause my beloved Estrella to no longer hide her suppressed grief. She releases a powerful astral howl. The out-pour of sudden anguish she now releases in Wulf Speak, causes everyone within my pack to hear it and instantly react. Estrella's power over the years has magnified.

No mental barrier can contain her when she wishes it....and this is one such a moment. With the essence of her true emotions revealed. Estrella, causes the present pack to fall to the ground holding their heads and a strong reaction from the only two capable of sustaining her might, her cubs.

Two alarmed voices belonging to my sons' bellow verbally "TOTI!/ MAMA ALPHA!!" Followed by my alpha "MIMA!", Robert "MAMA CARY!", and Carmen "ALPHA!". Yet the most powerful bellow comes not from them but from the wulves of my cubs with a snarl

"MOTHER!" Sable

"MAMA!" Cocoa

All eyes of my seven accompanying pack members burn radiating a powerful savage charge. They jolt towards me. Landing, surrounding me. Estrella had opened a portal from which I see our home range and, the rest of my family flood thru immediately; all phased to wulf form.

All insane emotionally, vibrating powerful ethereal forces and savagery to protect me. I must reassure my pack, my sons, my family. This pack may interpret their agitation and appearance as a threat. With the roar of my cubs' roar, the sky detonates with an explosion.

Showing the force of their growing power in one thunderous BOOM! In seconds, a murderous, thick lightning crackling storm cloud is consumed downwards within a spiraling lassoing forming tornado. The storm clouds lightning seen lashing from within it in all directions. It races destructively down towards us.

But in an instant with white radiance stemming from my eyes, Estrella opens a portal swallowing it up whole before it even reaches halfway. Then she gazes to and meets our Alpha's.

But it is not Reuben's emerald green eyes we meet. Rather, a pair of deep hunter forest green burning orbs, Crimson. His baritone wulf speak giving his approval "IT IS TIME." He knows what is coming.

I must not cower. Hearing the previous boisterous bellow of Alejandro and Randall gives me the strength to do this. To respect them as they have always respected me. "Sorry boys, I was in deep thought. My apologies" standing beside me, their intense focus and stare told me, they were not buying it.

Their intensifying energy of anxiety combined. Is staggering. Even to the ancient might of Estrella. Within that one notion I recognize, THEY, are more than prepared for what's to come.

My eyes move to their mates standing beside them also releasing unfathomable power. A force ready tear apart mother nature herself to defend their mates & pack. Their concerned stares rest on me. The only two capable of controlling my cubs. "I pray you control their coming darkness."

Reuben's eyes suddenly with fury illuminate further, as if having read my mind. Fiery power, the color dark forest green tells me, Crimson heard me along with someone else.

His baritone bass wulf spoken voice shows the phenomenal force he conceals as he, joined by Faust, whom he shared it with. Both respond to only me, "I WILL ESTRELLA" 

With Crimson's response and with a short quick glance, my eye rest on Faust "AS WILL I MAMA Cary." The power which is his birth right, has been quietly awakening in him and now briefly, it reveals itself.

Previously Robert's eyes would illuminate deep dark yellow showing Faust was present. But no longer. Faust's eyes instead become vaporous orbs like mists. Seen inside empty eye sockets staring back to me. Though not a Celestial Guardian Wulf.

Faust eases my concern. Hetoo is ready for the truth. Our future scribe, spirit wielder, son of the Alpha and Luna of the once Blue Moon Pack......has awakened to his true nature. In recognition of his parents. I bow my head briefly to him.

Thinking I am alone in my thoughts"Belladonna, you will be proud." I grin slightly, hearing her voice enter my mind as she responds"I always have been...... My Alpha. I always have been"
