Chapter 15

Grab me, I told the guys insistently.

Without hesitation they all grabbed me as I felt my head begin to pound. It felt like someone had put my head into a vice grip. The ice-cold feeling, I now associated with evil, flooded my veins and head. Horatio was pushing us to command him. I felt his strength and knew he could bend us to his will.

“Jaxson, Jace,” the woman had a calculating look in her eyes as she tilted her head to the side. Her voice was gentle as it came out. “I know it’s been years, but we can try to build a relationship. Your father took you away from me, and there isn’t a day I haven’t thought of you boys. Let’s stop playing this game. Come give your mom a hug and a kiss.”

I could feel Jaxson wavering.

No Jaxson! I yelled at him. I could feel her presence too. I didn’t know what gift she had but it was a strong mental one.

I felt my body begin to shake with trying to fight her and Horatio. The guards began stumbling around the room until they hit the forcefield with a solid thud.

“Jaxson,” Horatio commanded firmly. “I’m sure you missed your mom. I know she missed you.”

He’s trying to break our connection, I insisted. Jaxson, please! I pleaded.

I felt the continual pressure in my head, and I didn’t know how much longer we could keep our protection and barriers up.

Micah and Sierra returned, clearly visible. I quickly grasped onto them as Horatio started barking orders to grab them.

“Go!” I yelled. I barely blinked. I saw the fear, anger, panic, and pain on some of the faces I stared into. I stumbled in a jarring return. It was the roughest ‘landing’ I ever experienced.

We returned back into the girl’s room. I slumped to the floor taking deep breaths in. My body was wracked in tremors. Remy kneeled down in front of me and pulled me in tight. I wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my head into his neck.

“How’s everyone feeling?” Jace asked as he sunk down onto the floor.

“We stood up against Horatio,” Noah breathed in wonder and then gave the guys an apologetic look. “and your mom.”

“She’s not my mother,” Jace said concisely. “She’s just the woman who shares the same DNA as I do.”

My mind was still reeling with surprise. I knew this needed to addressed but it wasn’t the time to. Jaxson still looked devastated, and Jace looked like an impassive rock.

“Where is everyone else?” I asked as I stood up on shaken knees.

“They’re down at the clinic, getting checked out,” Sierra stated.

“We should go,” I commented.

“Are you going to get dressed first?” Troy hedged as he scrutinized my outfit.

I had completely forgotten that I wore a dress that barely covered me. I also realized that Troy didn’t like the idea of me wearing it in public. I smirked at him.

He had no problem when I was wonder woman for Halloween. I didn’t understand what the big deal was now.
