The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 62

Emery

Mom’s eyes widen with understanding, but I place my finger over my lips. Only my

mom and Aunt Quinn hear my little secret and I can see the excitement in both of their

eyes. I look up at my mates and they’re all smiling as well. I’m not sure what has our

father’s attention but none of them hear my bit of news. It’s just as well, though, they

will be too over- protective had they heard.

Bea pops in, “The council is here!”

I nod at all three of my aunts and they do their part, the amulets glowing around their

wrists as they hold the wall. Their hands are linked while their eyes are closed. You

can see their lips moving as they chant silently. I feel the wards come down, but the

new ones go up automatically, trapping the enemy between the invisible wall and the

border.

“Do it now!” I tell our parents.

They all take the daggers to our hands and slice them in the center of each palm. The

sting is nothing as the blade releases the blood from within. We automatically form a

circle as we grasp each other’s hands. As our blood drips to the ground, we begin the

chant, softly at first, but as I start to feel a warmth deep inside of me, my voice gets

louder, as does my

mates.

Opening my eyes, I can see a golden hue radiating off my skin, and each of my mates

have their own hue as well.

Decker’s is a black shimmery color, Holden’s is a white shimmery, and Asher’s is a red

one. It’s like smoke as it filters to the center of our circle and joins together, mixing the

colors together before they move upward.

The wind picks up all around us and the ground begins to rumble beneath our feet.

Screams can be heard from the Shikari as one by one I can see them in my mind,

dropping to their knees. They scramble, trying to take hold of their magic that seeps

out from their chests and gets sucked back into the earth. It’s too much for some and

they drop, taking their last breath on foreign soil. I can’t feel sorry for them, they chose

this path and now they must suffer the consequences.

We are only about three quarters of the way through when I start to feel myself waver.
