"Nicky stop, you are not the same as him; you have never hurt anyone except in the defense of someone you love, like all those times you faced challenges for me."
That gave him pause. "You knew?"
"Of course I knew you're my baby brother. Why do you think I didn't force you to come into the business, you were doing your bit for the pack and me, and I loved you all the more for it? Let him stand and fight you like a man."
"Stand asshole, stand and face me." Nicky watched him stand and then watched as he lifted his head towards Nicky, there was a sick smile on his face. Nicky saw him lift his arm and saw the sun glinting off the knife in his hand as though it were a shimmer in the sky.
"You gave him the chance Nicky, he blew it, now finish it and tell superwoman to release me."
Nicky lifted his arm and pushed the hand with the knife in it out of the way, it slid down the outside of his arm nicking him on the way down. But Nicky didn't feel it, as he stepped into the man that had almost broken his woman he grabbed his neck and twisted, he heard the snap of his neck and watched as his mates father dropped to the floor.
Finished with one problem he looked to War, he saw the excitement on her face. "Now let Lucifer go."
"What about your brother?" Obviously she could hear their telepathic communication and was somewhat confused. She looked between the brothers.
"No just Lucifer, but move him away from Ben."
Immediately he heard Ben's stern voice in his head. "Nicky don't do this release me so that we can finish this together."
"Sorry Ben this was foretold and it is my fight, I need to do this."
"Nicky as your alpha I command you."
Nicky laughed. "You were my brother before you were my alpha, you can't command me but nice try."
He looked back to War unaware that his next word was an order, though thankfully she did not challenge him. "Now."
She pointed the spear at Lucifer watching closely as War moved him; he now stood about five feet away from Nicky, initially though she only released Lucifer's head from the stillness.
"Your time will come wolf but first it's my time." She came to stand next to Nicky.
"What do you have to say for yourself Jacob Smith?" Her voice was not loud though it was fierce and commanding. Nicky had to admit that he felt a little in awe of the goddess next to him.
As Lucifer moved his head from side to side, Nicky could see him trying to move the rest of his body. "You fucking whore, God loving whore, release my men or feel the wrath of Lucifer."
She laughed out loud. "You fool, you cannot command Lucifer though I would like to know why he is the one true God, please educate me." Nicky watched them both, she was stood strong with her hands on her hips and her head tilted to one side.
Lucifer's face was twisting. "You are the fool, your God is not the true being and his son was nothing but a vampire."
Now she was interested, as was Nicky who listened as she stepped forward. "Please explain Jacob Smith."
"Why would I explain shit to a whore?" As Nicky watched her hair come to life, it swirled around her face; her eyes shone brightly, the iris taking on the colour of a strong flame just ignited. "There are worse things than death, now I command you to explain."
"The only people that rise from death are vampires, these bloodsuckers are the descendants of Jesus and the female Magdellan helped him, you are all whores for God."
She turned to Nicky and he thanked his lucky star that her anger was not directed at him. "I have to say that I think the man is insane, I also think you have a prophesy to fulfill."
War moved the spear and again Lucifer moved, but instead of pointing the gun at Nicky as he expected he pointed it at War. There wasn't enough time to close the distance as a man, he leapt and changed midair just as the man shot the gun. The blast tore through the silence of the land; his paws outstretched went straight into Lucifer's chest, as they both went down Nicky tore into his throat. The blood pooled in his mouth, this man truly was insane, Nicky could taste it in his blood but he only let go when he knew that Lucifer was dead.
Morgan was out of the car running towards him, as she got closer he stood and she flew to his wolf touching him everywhere, running her hands over his fur. "Gods are you okay? Did the bullet touch you?"
Nicky shifted back to man and wrapped his arms around her. "Why aren't you safely in the car? You need to rest."
"I feel good really good but when I saw you I panicked and I just ran poor Emma tried to..."
"Exhale little Pixie, I am all good."
"You are better than good, the danger has passed." They both turned to the warrior woman who had saved Morgan's life and in turn Nicky's.
This time she addressed Morgan. "Destiny will be happy you are safe Pixie? Why would your parent's call you Pixie, you mortals are strange."
Morgan laughed. "My parents named me Morgan, only Nicky calls me Pixie."
"Ah one of those nickname things, I have to say Pixie sort of suits you. Anyway your wolf prevented a man from trying to kill a Goddess even though a bullet wouldn't have caused me any injury. The point though is that the gesture was there. Should the both of you have need of me in the future just call or ask our warrior Mitch to ask for me."
As her spear moved forward everyone else started to move, the wolves over powered each of the remaining men in the Order and took their weapons from them.
Mitch moved to stand beside War, with Morgan still on the other side of her. "I see warrior why you like these people on Earth; they are interesting are they not?"
She watched Mitch look around with a proud smile on his face. "They are but I still want to know why I am here."
Morgan watched the woman smile a little mischievously. "Patience warrior, you will know when it is time. Who is that man over there?" She was looking at Bastian while answering her own question. "I remember now he is boss man. Interestingly he looks different when he is awake, stronger more regal. I may have to pay him a visit sometime."
With a sad smile on her face she turned towards Theo. "Now HE amuses me, there is something about him that compels me to watch him. Is he happy do you think? You know more about these emotion things than I want to ever know. He has suffered immense pain, his pain and anger overwhelm him making him a fierce warrior, yet he unleashes it on no-one but himself."
Morgan had been listening and looked to Theo. "You can sense his pain but I can also sense his kindness and compassion. His loyalty to those he cares for is stronger than his anger." She looked up and saw that War was watching her intensely.
"On some occasions Destiny is right to interfere, you are a wise woman wiser than your years and I look forward to watching you grow into a woman of...I want to say gold, but no that will not suffice, you will grow into a woman of Silver, now that is an achievement. But alas the war here was not enough to pique my enjoyment, now where to go to reach fulfillment... Afghanistan I think." And then she was gone.
Bastian and Mitch called in some back up as they arrested the rest of Lucifer's men, though without their leader they seemed remarkably lost and caused few problems. Lucky and the rest of the pack returned, everyone listened in rapture as Danny recounted everything that had happened, he painted Nicky to be some kind of super warrior leaving no doubt that when the time came, he would be more than capable of passing on the pack's history to the next generation.
EPILOGUE -
Three months later, Morgan sat on the porch swinging in her chair with a large sandy haired wolf at her feet. She had never felt so free; no more running, no more fear, and no more panic attacks. Two weeks after she had been shot Zachariah had performed the mating ceremony so now she could hear all of the wolves voices in her head, which had taken some getting used to but she had never been happier.
Nicky had tried to keep her at home, apparently the whole getting shot thing had scared him and he was terrified she would get hurt if she was too far from him. It hadn't worked and they both continued to split their time between O
asis and Silver Club.
Morgan looked around her, she loved it here, she loved their house especially after she had redecorated making it more homely, rather than a man's house. She could smell the roast beef cooking, her mother, Cane and her grandparents were coming for dinner, as well as Nicky's family.
It had been hard for her mother, as much as she hated their father she still loved Andrew and to lose him before she could get to know him had hurt her deeply. Morgan knew that her mother realized Andrew could not be saved and their father had tainted him, but she had still given birth to him, she had held him, cuddled him and loved him. Sometimes she saw her mother deep in thought and knew what she was thinking.
Her mother had taken it hard when she found out that the Order had kept her grandfather a prisoner all of this time. Her grandfather had found them but before he could tell anyone they had taken him with a plan to convert him. Both she and Cane were grateful for the chance to get to know him.
Morgan was taking the time to get to know her new family, her Gran was pretty cool and was giving her lessons in magic. Apparently her gran knew that at some point she and Cane would develop their own magical powers. Morgan smiled to herself; she already knew that and something else.
As Nicky shifted to stand in front of her, she saw the familiar glint in his eyes. "Don't even think about it Nicky people will be here in thirty minutes, we don't have time."
It made no difference to Nicky. '"Tell me again why we are having some sort of party, when the only party I want involves me and you and a bed, well actually the bed isn't really a requirement." His seductive smile gave her a shiver.
He could always make her laugh. "Well, I want all of our families to get to know each other."
He sighed but was still smiling; she loved that smile it always made her melt and today was no exception. "Well I suppose if we are quick, thirty minutes should be enough time."
She didn't even finish the sentence before he lifted her in his arms and raced her through the house. She was laughing so hard that by the time he put her on the bed, she thought she might split her sides, she knelt up to face him and he took her mouth, kissing her hard. Feeling her desire spike she pulled his shirt over his head, she was tugging at his jeans and as she sprung his hard length free she eyed him greedily before she dropped to her bottom and took it in her mouth, feeling her own desire rocket.
"God Pixie that is so good…. I really hate to stop you and believe me I don't want to, but I think we may have a problem."
She didn’t want to stop. "It better be a good reason Nicky, if I stop I may just leave you like this."
"Well I am not sure what is happening, but things in the room are sort of, well sort of floating." She didn't take him out of her mouth. "I was going to surprise you at dinner but I think my emotions might have given me away, I got my magic Nicky. Well I think I have?"
"Oh is that all, God." Morgan continued to suck him, she swirled her tongue around the tip of his penis and he fisted her hair in his hands relishing her control over him.
"Keep going Pixie, what do you mean you THINK you got your powers, what the hell else could this be?" He groaned out loud and couldn't help but thrust himself into her mouth.
Morgan smiled around his penis, not much fazed her wolf although she was about to give him a shock, it was unfair to hold out on him.
"I noticed my magic building about a week ago, but there was also a magic building inside of me right here." She had taken her mouth off of him, wanting to look in his eyes as she took her top off. He moved onto the bed, laying her on her back he stripped off the rest of her clothes. She needed to tell him before things became too intense. She pointed to her stomach as he continued seducing her.
"God you are beautiful Morgan, did your Gran warn you that you would feel the magic growing in different places." He bent to take her nipple into his mouth.
"No, she told me that white magic grows from the heart." Hell, she was burning from the inside out; he was kissing his way down her. "Nicky I want you inside of me now."
"You're very bossy, but I like it." As he kissed her hard, she spread her legs wider so he could position himself. "So what does it mean?"
"What oh, I am almost certain that the magic in my stomach is stronger than the magic in my heart, which means that…." She groaned as he thrust into her, being with him like this made her feel complete. "Nicky, It means that the child growing inside me is one of those rare witches that are magical from birth."
As he thrust again she felt as though her world was about to explode. "Oh God Morgan I love……" He went still; he didn't move a muscle as he opened his eyes to look into hers.
"What the hell did you just say?"
Tears formed in her eyes, she though that he would be happy, maybe she was wrong. "I said that the child growing inside me is one of those rare witches that are magical from birth, and this baby is strong already."
Nicky pulled out of her quickly unable to catch his breath, oh hell he was starting to hyperventilate, as he sat back he didn't realize how close to the edge of the bed he was and fell smack on his behind, she was laughing, his little Pixie was laughing at him though the was a nervous edge to it.
"Breathe Nicky." Listening to her voice he was stunned.
"Are you sure?"
She nodded. "Oh hell." he watched her face fall.
"I thought you would be pleased."
Nicky took a moment to breathe really hard. "We are going to have a baby" she nodded and he felt this feeling of immense joy well up, he knew he had tears in his eyes.
"Thank you Pixie." Leaning against the bed and he pulled her to him. "I love you so much."
Her relief was immense. "I love you too, now get your butt back up here and finish what you started." He looked her up and then down at his still raging penis, she was so small, so tiny, how would she carry a baby, it might break her? He replaced the look of hunger from his face with a more determined one.
"There will be none of that Pixie, you're so small and well, well I am rather large, something I always thought was a good thing though now I am not sure. First thing we'll do is go and see a doctor and see what they say before we do any more of that."
"Nicky its fine, people have sex when they are pregnant all of the time, you ask Ben and I am sure…"
He stood and started shuffling around her while she was still eyeing his large erect penis. "Stop talking Pixie you need to rest, we will talk to a doctor first; now get yourself laid down in bed. I will tell people you are resting; I can finish dinner and will come fetch you when it's ready." As he dressed and then went to walk out of the room, he turned back and kissed her hard.
"I have two of you to protect now, tomorrow I will have Theo come and check the house and make sure there are no hazards."
Morgan didn't even realize that he had tucked her into bed until he shut the door, what the hell was that? She heard cars pulling up outside and jumped up putting some clothes on, stay in bed, I don't think so. Everyone arrived at the same time.
"Where's Morgan?" She and Lucky were really close now, and Nicky felt faint when he remembered Lucky had given birth to triplets, she had been huge and tired and drained.
"Nicky what's the matter you look a little pale" His mother was looking worried.
As Morgan walked in the room and saw Nicky's pale face she rushed to his side. "Lucky had three at once, you are too tiny Pixie. I don’t know what to do?" She saw the worry shadowing his face.
"You silly ass, it's only one not three and everyone's looking at you." He looked up to see that everyone was clearly worried. Ben was moving towards him, he waved him away and sat on one of the chairs.
Shit, Nicky what's wrong, tell me?" Ben had ignored him and come to his side. Morgan watched him kneel to look at Nicky.
"Morgan's pregnant Ben, what do I do? What if it's three, what if it's more than three? Oh God, I think I am going to be sick."
As he saw comprehension dawn on those in the room as Ben burst out laug
hing.
"Welcome to parenthood little brother, let the fun begin. By the way the fear gets a hundred times worse after the baby is born."
Her family just stared at her, her mother was openly crying and smiling, Morgan moved towards her. "This baby is strong; I can already feel its magic growing."
Cane hugged her though he quickly stepped back to look at their Gran whose eyes had closed, her hand was clutching the table.
'"THIS CHILD IS THE LEADER OF ALL MAGIC USERS, HE ALONE WILL HAVE THE POWER TO SUMMON AND UNITE WHITE WITCHES. WHEN THE TIME COMES THEY WILL STAND TOGETHER WITH THE CHILDREN OF THE CHOSEN ONES TO BRAVE THE ULTIMATE BATTLE."
