Chapter 22

Zoey woke up frightened. The witch was in her dream stabbing her with the knife. London was stroking her hair trying to calm her down when she awoke.

“Bad dream?” London questioned.

“Yes. Claudia Blackwood was in it.” Her voice broke as London took Zoey’s hand in hers giving her strength. “I was so scared, London. Not for me, but for all of you. My only thoughts were how I could tell you she was here on our land. I had no way to warn you. She was so strong. Not even my wolf could defeat her. What are we going to do?” Zoey couldn’t hold it in any longer and broke down as she sobbed on London’s arms. Her body shook with the fear of the unknown. Would they always be on the lookout for Claudia Blackwood? Could she just pop into their house when they were asleep and kill them?

The fear of what this one witch could do tore into her heart. She knew what Claudia would do if she succeeded. The shifters would be her slaves.

“We will figure it out. I’ve called Me-Len, and she is going to come to the house when we get home. There has to be something I can do with the Tree of Life. Somehow she is doing this disappearing act, but we will figure it out. Don’t cry, Zoey.” London continued to rub Zoey’s hair as her breathing slowed.

“Okay. I’m done. Sorry, it was just a brief moment. I just can’t bear the thought that something could happen to my family.” She hated feeling weak, but she had to get it out so she could get stronger and help with the battle they all knew was coming. Zoey looked around the room looking for the one person she wanted so desperately to see and touch. “Where is Kayden?” Zoey asked.

London grabbed a Kleenex and wiped the tears off her face. “All the Alphas are meeting in his office. They should be out in a few minutes.” London inhaled then said, “Do you smell that?” London and Zoey both turned their noses in the air to smell the intoxicating smell of food cooking.

“I’m starving,” Zoey said leaning up on her elbow.

“Me too,” London answered. They both licked their lips and looked back at each other laughing.

“Can you help me up so I can go to the kitchen? I’ve got to eat something.” Zoey still felt tired, but she needed to refuel her body with some food. She groaned as London helped her get up from the bed.

“Uhm Zoey, maybe you need to get in the shower first. You have blood all over you and in your hair, sweetie. I can go in the shower with you and help you.”

“I will do it,” Kayden answered before Zoey could say anything. London nodded and winked at Zoey then walked out of the room.

“How do you feel, baby?” Kayden asked. She could tell he was eaten up with guilt, but it wasn’t his fault. They needed to put the blame where it belonged, and that was on Claudia Blackwood.
