Omega to Luna

Atticus' POV

A gush of wind blew and with it, an invisible wall fell right in front of our eyes revealing a large castle-like house. I turned around to look at my men and see that they all held similar expressions, with their mouths hung open in awe. "You stay here?" I questioned Tony. "Yes, my coven and I stay here." She responded without moving her gaze from the home. "Follow me and be quick. Not all witches like weres." She continued. With that, we all continued following at a quicker pace. Leading us into the house we paced a large group of women standing in what looks to be the living room. "Who are they?" Someone whispered. "They smell like dogs." "Tony probably brought more werewolves to ease her fascination with them." They all began whispering back and forth before Tony suddenly stopped and turned to them with a scowl. "I DO NOT HAVE A FASCINATION WITH WEREWOLVES. NOW GO BUSY YOURSELVES WITH SOMETHING OTHER THEN GOSSIP." She said through clenched teeth.

'What was that about?' I mind linked Jax. 'Ever since Tony and I became friends and I started visiting here, the other witches started saying that she has a fascination with werewolves. Tony and I just bonded and not all witches agree with it.' He replied. I looked towards Tony with a sympathetic look and she frowned. "Let's go. Oh, and Jax." She said looking over her shoulder. "Yes?" He raised an eyebrow. "Remember I can hear your wolves. You do not need to mind link each other." She said with a slight chuckle before continuing down the long hallway past dozens of doors. "Alohamora. " Tony said when she stopped in front of a large black rustic looking door.

She stepped in and turned towards us and motioned us in. We all followed suit and piled into the room looking around. "What is this place?" I questioned. "We must wait here. The council will be here shortly to answer your questions. You guys can take a seat." She responded sounding uninterested. We all moved to sit at the large oak table when she suddenly spoke again. "Not you! You can stand right next to me." I turned around to see who she was speaking to when I saw Kira with a flash of fear cross her features. Chuckling I turned back to the table and took my seat closest to the front and motioned my men to sit as well.

After a few minutes of silence, a woman appeared at the head of the table with a black cloak covering her face. "Alex, what are you doing here?" Tony broke the silence causing this woman to raise her head. A lump formed in my throat when I caught her eye. I have never felt true fear until now. She turned towards me with a smirk and slowly stood up walking towards me. "Do I make you nervous pup?" She whispered in my ear. "Alexandria! Enough!" Jax shouted. I snapped my head towards him with wide eyes. 'You know her?' I questioned through the link. 'Yes. She is my half-sister. The only Tri-brid that is known to walk the earth.' He responded almost immediately. "Come on brother, he looks like he could be fun." She said and I could hear the slight threat behind her words. Jax let out a low growl and stood slamming his fists on the table. "Alex, stop this. Atticus is my Alpha, he has a mate. We are only here to get information. You can go play cat and mouse with someone else." He told her never breaking eye contact. She huffed before moving back towards her seat and grumbled, "Fine Jaxson. I will behave, this time..." She trailed off before looking back at me with a smirk. "Be careful Atticus. If you're not careful you might not come in contact with someone as controlled as me. You smell delicious enough to eat."

"Alex, where is the council?" Tony asked her. "Busy. They asked me to take care of this." She responded sounding irritated. Tony huffed in response before walking towards the table and sitting next to this Alex woman. "Now, what information are you looking for?" She asked. "Alex, do you know of any wolves who have made a deal with the council?" Jax questioned her. "A wolf? Making a deal with the council? Brother, what do you take the council for? They are not irresponsible." She gritted. "It is true. A wolf has possessed magic. I can feel it." Tony spoke. "Hmm. This is interesting. Atticus, please follow me." Alex said as she stood from the table. "Where are you taking him, Alex?" Jax growled. "Do not fret dear brother. Your Alpha will return." She spoke. "Unharmed?" Jax questioned. "Yes, unharmed. Unless of course, he agrees to let me have a taste." She says eyeing me like a piece of meat. "Jax it is okay. If she can help us get Zaraphine back then I will willingly go." I told him reassuringly. Jax nodded and sat back down never taking his eyes off his sister.
