And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Kara, the Valkyrie who had once visited me before in the sanctum of elders, stood before me with her mighty sword strapped to her back and her wings folded behind her. "You need to get up now. We have to get the children, and we have to protect them." I was shocked to see her. I hadn't seen her in months, and yet here she was, just in time for chaos to consume the outside world. Jumping from the bed, I ran to the window. The fires outside the lands of our pack and the howls of wolves surrounded us. The scene before me was unlike anything I had ever seen, yet it felt so familiar.

The elders were attacking, and I was left in the center. "I have to help them."

"No," Kara said firmly as she took two steps forward, striding closer as she grabbed me by my arm. "You cannot help them."

My mother and Priscilla quickly entered the door behind, stopping to look at Kara. My mother's eyes widened, never having seen a creature like that before, a soft gasp leaving her lips as the twins began to cry. Their cry was different, though. It was almost ear-piercing, and as I strode towards them, I picked them up to soothe them.

And as I did, the crying stopped.

It was odd... I had never seen them act the way they did, but looking down at them now, I knew their safety came first. No matter how much I wanted to go out there to help my mates.
