36 Accept Her

Calliope POV

Aurora whimpers as we leave Eli’s office. My heart is broken too, but we are strong and we need to get through this together. I make my way down the stairs and Oliver is sitting on the couch with a very pretty older woman. He looks nervous but I’m not sure why. I walk over and he stands up when he sees me. “Calliope, this is Alpha Eli’s mother, Luna Amelia.” I shoot him a glare because he had better not have said a word to her about what happened in the office. I reach out my hand and she takes it. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Luna.” Her smile is warm and kind. “It’s nice to meet you, Alpha Calliope. We were so happy when Lily told us that you had taken over as the Alpha of the Crescent Moon pack. I’m glad you were able to meet Eli here in the pack today about the alliance between us. Thank you for understanding his need to be close to Faith with the recent vampire attacks.” “Of course, she is a very special little girl. ” “I’m glad you got to meet her.” Thinking about Faith makes a dull ache in my heart. I feel the pull not only to Eli but to Faith. I smile at Amelia despite the pain I feel. She reminds me of my own mother. “Thank you, Amelia. I hope we will see each other again. We should be getting back to the pack.” She pulls me into a hug and I stiffen at first before I hug her back.

about it right now Oliver. I just want to get back to the pack.” We walk for a few more minutes and I’m grateful that he doesn’t push me right now. We are almost to the gate when he breaks the silence. “Calliope” he says my name and I stop turning to tell him to give me time when I notice the look on his face. I look in the same direction and there are at least twenty vampires breaking through the trees. Why the hell would they breach the pack so close to the gate? That’s when I realize most of the warriors are patrolling the borders for attacks, leaving the gate area with minimal guards. The two guards from the gate join us and the vampires stop about ten feet from us.

can hear bones crack under us. She stands and turns biting the b**ch on the ground in half. We start to look around and we have been joined by at least five more warriors. I’m grateful for the increase in our numbers. Oliver seems to be holding his own, but I notice one of the Nightfire pack wolves is pinned down by two of the vampires. I run in his direction and jump, knocking one of the vampires into the trees. The warrior gets the upper hand again and I start toward the trees to finish off the other vampire. I can scent him and his blood. I’m sure he is hurt and trying to run like a coward. That won’t be happening. I stalk slowly into the trees. He is leaning against one of them and his leg is definitely broken. He looks toward me and smiles. “We aren’t alone, Calliope”, Aurora says, and I know she’s right as there

Eli POV

scents is making it hard for me to scent her. We kill two vampires when the scent of apples and cinnamon invades our nose. Silas takes off for the trees and we stop dead when we see a red wolf standing over a dead vampire. Four more bodies are lying about ten feet from them. Despite the color of her fur, I can tell it’s wet with blood. Silas walks over and begins to lick her fur. I scent that the blood is definitely hers. She seems to lean against Silas and I wonder if the blood loss is taking its toll on her. She has a gash on her nose and blood covering the fur on her back. Without warning, she shifts and her body slumps to the ground. Without a second thought, I shift and scoop her into my arms.
