I pushed past the people that had gathered in the center of the living area. There were whispers everywhere and from the faces and the atmosphere I could already tell that nothing good was awaiting me, still I prayed, I prayed to the Goddess that nothing had happened to my child.
But once I got to her, all the breath whooshed out of my lungs and it felt like a vibration went through my body. I ran towards her and took her frame into my hands.
Jessy was laying in a pool of her own blood around her head and there was still some blood rushing out of her mouth. My daughter looked pale and lifeless. The scream that tore out of my mouth was inhumane and it took everything in me to not shift at that moment, since my wolf was threatening to take over
“She’s still breathing Freya, we have to move her to the room, I just called the healer and she’ll be here soon to look her over. You need to let go of her so I can carry her to the room where she’ll be more comfortable.” I heard Greyson speak, but my mind could barely comprehend any of the things he was saying.
It felt like his words were going over my head, I only continued to grip Jessy’s frame tighter. He moved me though, gently taking Jessy out of my hands, I growled at him, rushing towards him to take my child back but he only ignored me, scooping Jessy into his arms and carrying her away.
I followed hurriedly after him with tears blurring my vision. I could hear the murmurs from the people behind us and the sound of footsteps following after me but I didn’t stop to look or listen. I only had my eyes on my child.
“Christie get some water and towels and Freya get her some new clothes.” Greyson instructed the moment we were in the masters bedroom.
I didn’t want to leave my child for any reason but Looking at the careful manner in which Greyson was treating and attending to her let me know that she was in good hands and maybe I needed to do something to get my mind to start working again.
Running out of the room, I flew down the flight of stairs in the direction of the quarters, the guests were exiting the house already but I paid no attention to any of them. It wasn’t until I was inside my room that it felt like my brain was starting to work again.
I rummaged through the drawers taking out a few clothes with tears still streaming down my face, I swiped them away trying to focus on the task at hand. Once I turned around to exit the room, it was to find the little boy that had been in the office earlier in the day. Simon.
“Where’s Jessy?” He asked.
I smiled gently at him even through my tears, the child looked sad and it worsened how I felt but at the same time it struck a chord within me. Jessy finally had a friend, one that cared about her.
It wasn’t something that would have ever happened back at our former pack. My child would have grown into a full blown outcast. She would have always been picked on because of our circumstances. Everything changed here.
“She’ll be fine, okay. Go meet your father, he might be worried.” urged, giving him a small smile which he returned.
He held my hands as we walked out of the quarters, I knew he would be around Jessy’s age but he was already so strong and matured. It felt like he carried a certain energy and strength and as he held onto my hands while we walked, It helped me breathe better.
“Simon, I’ve been looking for you.” His father said the moment we were out. The boy let go of my fingers to go to his father.

“I’m really sorry about what has happened with Jessy, I hope she’s fine. We’ll come to check upon her again soon.” He said quietly, offering me a small smile.
His words sounded real and while he spoke they comforted me but the moment he smiled, everything felt off once more. His smile wasn’t anything comforting, it felt like he was mocking me and the way his eyes also sparkled with what looked like excitement, didn’t match his words.

But I didn’t even have the time to respond to him, because he took his son into his arms and he was exiting the now empty living area.
