Free Web NovelChapter 86: Chapter 86 What Happened?
Abby’s POV
"What happened?" I ask Winter in my Luna Queen tone.
"She is a seer, is what happened." Winter answers nonchalantly. She is a what now? Winter sighs and sits down on the floor, her legs crossed. She takes Laurel’s hand in hers.
"Child. Follow my voice! Walk with me, breath in the air and collect your mind. Feel my warmth, know what is real. What is yet to come, and what has happened in the past? Walk along, and come back to life." Winters’ voice is deep and ethereal. She is calling out to Laurel’s soul, as much as her mind.
Slowly Laurel regains some of her color. She’s been deadly pale ever since her vision. Her hair is no longer bright white, but regaining their normal color as well. When she opens her eyes, they are back to normal, too.
"I... I... What happened? What was that?" Her voice is shaking with fright, as she looks at me and Winter with all her questions. I do not know and am just as confused as her.
"You, my dear, are a seer. Didn’t you know?" Winter states. Laurel shakes her head no. She obviously had no idea.
"Well, I felt it the first time I saw you! The power is as strong in you as it is in the child you are carrying." Winter says, looking down at her flat stomach. Then Kaiden interrupts.
"Hold on one minute. What child.. Are we? Are you.. Pregnant?" He puts a hand on her belly as she cries in her hands. She nods, saying she only just found out this morning, and didn’t know how to tell him. Winter looks remorseful and apologizes to have spoiled her moment.
"You really didn’t. I did not know how to tell him, so you helped. But I am more concerned about you calling me a seer? I have shown none signs of being.. Extraordinary." Laurel says. I pat her on the arm. She is most likely picturing that idiot of a father telling her how useless she is.
"Well. Have you ever known when things were happening? Or prevented something from happening? Or found lost people without the knowledge of where they were beforehand?" Winter asks. Laurel nods, thinking hard.
"That’s the gift. But under the circumstances of not being nurtured, it will not progress or blossom. It will stay as an intuition, a secret." Laurel looks dumbfounded.
"I am special?" She asks in a small voice. Kaiden makes to speak, but I beat him to it!
"You’ve always been special! With or without powers, you are the most wonderful, caring, organized and sweet person! An amazing beta female, and my first real friend. I know we’ve drifted a bit because of everything that’s happened, but you are special in every way. You are loved by all. Pack members, ranked members and all in between." I say, while shredding a tear.
Winter stands up.
"Well, it seems that I’ll have to travel to and from, so I can teach this young woman how to harvest her powers properly." She states, looking Jax in the eyes.
"I’ll take you whenever you need it, but I am not staying throughout her sessions." Winter nods, accepting that. freewebnσvel.cøm
"I will take you back afterwards." I offer.
While we were talking, Winter was scolding Laurel a bit and Kaiden kept telling her how special he thinks she is and how much he already loves his little bean - Winter correcting it to Beans. I received an urgent mind-link from Matt. Morgan had gone into labor, but something was wrong. They needed me at the hospital ASAP!
Explaining while running out the door, everyone in there promised to stay and keep an eye on my babies. I had pumped out after their meal earlier, so there was food to give if they became hungry. Winter exclaimed this was the perfect time to train, and I was out the door.
Entering the hospital, I see Brandon and Matt standing in the hallway. I run to them, asking a million questions a minute.
Matt tells me they have taken Morgan to the OP, stating she had lost too much blood, and her placenta was loose. They said Brandon had to wait out in the hallway while they operated, and they were doing everything they could to save mother and child. He looks so lost, tears streaming down his cheeks and his eyes glued to the door towards where his mate and child were.
I take his hand, guiding him towards the benches, Matt following behind.
After what seemed like hours, a nurse came out with a bundle in her arms.
"It’s a little girl, gamma." She says with a small smile that did not reach her eyes. Brandon, fixated on his little girl, does not notice.
"Can I? May I? She is so little." He stutters, as the nurse puts the bundle in his arms. freёweɓnovel.com
’My Queen, we may need you in there. Your powers.. It’s not looking good.’ The nurse mind-links. I nod and tell Matt, who distracts Brandon with random baby talk. He is too absorbed in his little princess to notice me walking with the nurse.
I shift into the clothing for being in the operation room, and walk in to chaos. They are working on Morgan in orderly chaos. But she is losing so much blood. I know this will be out of my hands before I even settle in there.
As the monitor numbers drop, a long line follows with a long and desperate beeeeeeeeeep. I quickly mind-link Kaiden to sent Willow. She is my only hope now, and she needs to hurry.
Outside in the hallway I can hear commotion, as Brandon feels their matebond snap.
