The Third Person’s POV
"I was walking in my own thoughts and didn’t see the hunter’s trap in front of . Before I knew it, it snapped on my ankle and broke it. I loosened it with my magic, but couldn’t get it off, as they coated it with stardust, which prevents witches and warlocks from performing their magic. As I was the Queen at the ti, I did enough to get out of the trap, but the dust kept being on my skin, slowly draining . And this is when your father showed up. He had been patrolling nearby and heard the trap snap. I thought he was the hunter and would end right then and there, but he picked up bridal style and carried to a cavern." Willow sat there listening to her mother’s story with wide eyes and mouth agape.
"When we reach the cavern, he put down, wiped the dust off and waited until my magic appeared again. We talked. A lot. And he told he was one of the border guardians. Protecting our side of the border of the underworld, of anything passing through that wasn’t supposed to. You see, so creatures aren’t ant to cross over, but do anyway and so creatures are ant to cross over but are being held in there against their will. The guardians are there to help, guide, and prevent mishaps. They themselves can cross between the two realms freely. We started eting in secret, because they did not an for to know about them, seeing as this would give and my fraction an unfair advantage, but fate made a call that day." Mallory is far away in her eyes, watching it all unfold in her head as she tells her story.
"We beca friends, and then our feelings developed. We.. It just kinda happened, and one thing led to another. When we were caught, he was moved to the other side of the border, not allowed to cross over. We were forbidden to see each other again. Once again, I was alone. But soon after, I discovered I was pregnant again. With you, darling." Willow blinked and swallowed. Her father had been a border guardian. But what did that exactly an?
"I know this is a lot to swallow, darling. But what this ans is that you will be able to cross over the border as you want, too. But there is sothing you need to know. You were not born on the other side and have never been there, so the journey will take a tole until your body gets used to it. Also, you are a forbidden child, a love child, but forbidden. This ans that dark forces will seek you for your powers, because you hold so much more than et the eye. And last but not least, I haven’t been completely honest about your age either. You are not ten, but thirteen and will be of age in three years. Everyone believed when I gave an age, because of your powers of mind reading and the fact that power will age everyone. When so doubted regarding your womanly developnt, I told them you take after and develop early. Which isn’t half a lie because you really do. The only one who knew the truth was Winter. I alternated the twins’ mory as a safety precaution." Mallory says the last things all in a hurry, trying to soften the blow.
She is expecting her daughter to throw a tantrum, but Willow hugs her.
"I know, mom. I’m not even mad. Everything you said was in my protecting, but I wish you would have told sooner. So, I’m not mad, but disappointed."
No sooner have Willow forgiven her mother, when she felt a giant electric shock waved through her body, and her being pulled away.
"I have to go now, mom. Bye, I love you!" She said before she feels herself fly away. She can see the hospital room where she is lying in the bed, and she watches when the doctor gives another shock to her heart.
As her spirit enters her body, she feels her senses regaining. She can hear the doctor telling the other staff she is back, a nurse giving numbers on her pulse and her heart beating steadily in her chest. Then another pulling feeling flows through her and the beeping of the machines disappears. What the hell happened now? The thoughts keep running through Willow’s head when a new and unfamiliar voice is heard.
"Ah, the princess. Excellent. I will let the master know." Then the footsteps disappear and Willow opens her eyes to a dark, luxurious room.
Where the hell had she landed this ti?
Abby and Ellie are sitting together in the waiting room, trying to comfort each other while their mates are on either side of them. The guys both have glazed over eyes, showing they are mind-lining together.
"Your Highnesses, everyone, I have to tell you.." The doctor start before Ellie and Abby shouting at him interrupts him.
"SHE IS NOT DEAD!" The sisters shout in unison. Their mates trying, but failing to keep them both calm so the doctor can get a word in.
"No my Queen, Luna Ellie. She is not dead." They all realise the breath they are holding in, but Jax does not like the look in the doctor’s eyes.
"Then what seems to be the problem, Doc?" He asks gruffly. His mate is okay, but sothing is still off about the situation. Then he turns on his senses and the aura from the room hits him like a brickwall. NO! How had this happened? Wait. Her heart stopped for a mont. FUCK! Jax’s eyes turn ice blue, a demanding and dark aura surrounds him before a fierce growl escapes his lips.
"What. Happened?" He asks, enunciating each word. Everyone looks at Jax strangely before Abby gasps. Jax lock eyes with her, his ice blue eting her swirling orbs. An understanding grows between them. Her eyes glow before they both nod once at each other.
