Thirty-Four: Origins

Chris

I know my sisters are terrified of what is going to be explained tonight. They have good reason to be. The last time this story was told, it ripped a pack apart and turned part of it against the rest. At least some of the packsurvived. So much was lost, and some bad shit went down. Kylani is absolutely terrified and on the verge of a panic attack. If Kaleb sees her like this, he is going to lose his shit, and he has every right to. She is carrying hischild, and a panic attack is not good for either of them. My sisters have decided against being there tonight. I know they don’t want to see the reactions of everyone. I stand at the front of the group and watch as everyone walksin and takes a seat. I see Kaleb look for Kylani and is worried when he can't replace her. Finally, everyone is here.

“Ok so after recent events today, I am sure everyone is wondering why I had Dustin call this meeting,” I announced.

“What is going on? Where is Kylani?” Kaleb asks worriedly.

“I am going to explain. I do ask that no one asks any questions until after I am done with the story. Mykenzie and Kylani have decided against being present for this. I will tell you why after.” I say.

I can tell he doesn't like my answer. I take a deep breath and start:

“The three of us aren't even supposed to exist. My mother, your moon goddess, or known by another name Aphrodite was impregnated by an unknown person. She was basically artificially inseminated in away. There was aplot to overthrow the gods. There was a pair of demigods that wanted to take over. Somehow they were able to get a sample of each of the 12 greek gods' powers and combine them together and make a child. My mother isknown for having girls, I am the only male child she has ever had. They somehow incapacitated her and implanted the first child. Well after about two weeks they thought it didn’t work so they tried again. That's why there arethe three of us. Well unknown to the original plotters two others had overheard the plot and decided to add a few other beings to the mix. They gathered powers and blood samples from were-animals of all kinds, vampires, thefae and they also split three souls in half. The original plotters were hoping for a girl so they could control her and she would have the power to take down the gods. They could also mate with her and produce children. Well, theother two who split the three souls in half did so that the only people that could mate with us are our soul bonds. My sisters can only get pregnant by their soul bonds and I can only get my soulbond pregnant. The only thing thatthe plotters didn't think of was putting that much power into one child. It was too much power for one, so one became two. They didn’t know that their first attempt had succeeded and so had the second attempt. So my mothergave birth to the three of us. What was unexpected was how powerful my sisters were. They have the power to literally wave a hand and wipe an entire species off the planet. They could easily overpower the gods. However, asall of you have seen they could care less about all of that. They have chosen to walk among the mortal and immortal. When they created the Blue Diamond Pack 350 years ago they let one family rule as the Alpha family. TheAlpha’'s name was Dominick Diamante. The pack ended up breaking because this same story was told and one of the other families decided that if they could control the girls that they could have the strongest and deadliestpack in existence. That family began to turn on the others and kill some. One family was wiped out or bred out and Dominick's family escaped. We were under the impression that few to none of them were still alive. But sinceLisa or Lishelle is here this means that it is not the case. How did your family survive.?” I ask after my long explanation.

“Dimitri.” She answers.

Mykayla sits up straight, and her eyes go wide. That throws me for a loop.

“Dimitri was the one who took me to my grandma's after the fire and made sure that Bree and I would be alright. He was the one that made sure I got the job at Dustin's company.” She states.

Oh, Dimitri, you sneaky bastard. I don't know whether to be mad at him or thankful. I restart my story:

“Dimitri was/is the brother of Dominick. He was obviously a werewolf but one night he was out walking and was bitten by a vampire. Well, vampire DNA and werewolf DNA don’t mix at all. I found him and knew he was dying. Iknew that my sisters were the only two who could save him. I called them and they bit him at the same time. My sisters, having every known creature's blood in them can make anything when they bite someone. Well becausethe vampire DNA mostly won out, but he did retain some werewolf DNA. The reason he knows Mykayla is because her father was the great-great-grandson of the fae king. His daughter fell in love with humans and gave up herimmortality to be with him. My sisters took her immortality away but not her fae powers. Dimitri is the current fae king because he married the current queen, Daniylla is their daughter. The reason my sisters are not here is thatthey are afraid that history will repeat itself.” I tell them.

I give everyone a few moments to take in all the information. Surprisingly there are no questions.

"Well, Mykenzie and Kylani have nothing to worry about. I have always felt as if they belong here. I can’t explain why but I think I know now. In Fact, if any of you would like to become official pack members I have no problemperforming the ceremony.” Dustin announces.

Everyone else agrees, and I am surprised at this outcome. Although I think I knew that it would be ok. I tell Dustin; unfortunately, my sisters and I can't do it because of our blood and that neither can Alexis, Bryn, or Jailynn, butif any of the others want to, they can. I walk over to Kaleb.

“Kylani is afraid you are going to hate her and that you won't want her any longer,” I tell him.

“What, I could never hate her, and I will always want to be with her.” He says, offended.

I explain to him why these thoughts run through her head. He understands and leaves to replace her. I tell him where she is, and I know she is going to be pissed, but I don’t care. I know he loves my sister and that they are the twohalves of one of the split souls. This is much stronger than one of mom's mate bonds. This actually went better than I expected. Dustin, Kaleb, Nate, Ashton, Brighton, and all the fathers come over to me and tell me that theywill protect the secret of my sisters and me with their lives. They tell me that the full strength of the pack is behind them. Our original pack may have been destroyed, but I know that this pack is everything, and I know for sure Ican believe everything they tell me. Being able to read minds helps.

Kylani

The longer that meeting goes on, the more worried I get. I can feel the panic attack coming. I already know Kaleb is going to hate me and that he is going to make me leave. I guess at least I have the baby. It will be the onepiece of him I can still keep. I don't even realize I have started crying until I taste my salty tears. I knew I should have walked away after the meeting that night. God, I am so stupid. I knew it was him as soon as I stepped intothat room that night.

FLASHBACK

We received that text from Natalya and went straight to the room. As soon as I entered the room, I smelled the scent. That ocean and eucalyptus scent. I look over to my left, and there he is. He is sitting down, but I can tell he istall, probably 6'4”, with that surfer shaggy black curly hair and bright hazel eyes with a touch of grey. DAMN, HE IS FUCKING SEXY AS HELL! I hear him say mate, and realize he is probably not talking about me. I can’t help it,though. I go over and sit by him, and that electrical feeling is back. At some point, our hands touch, and a spark shoots up my arm. I see it affects him too, but then he shrinks away after Chris's explanation. Figures that hewouldn't want a goddess as a mate.

END FLASJBACK__

But I just had to go into his room and see what would happen. It's my own fault. I am currently hiding out behind the pool house. I am pretty much in a full-blown panic attack and uncontrollable crying when I hear the one voice Iwant to hear but don’t want to hear.

“Gorgeous, what's wrong? Please calm down; it's not good for the baby.” Kaleb says soothingly.

I try to walk away cause I already know he is going to tell me I am a freak and that he hates me and doesn't love me anymore and to get the fuck out. I have moved three feet from him when I feel strong arms wrap around meand pull me to his solid chest. I try and fight it, but he isn’t letting go.

“Please just let me go. I know...” That is all I am able to say.

He captures my lips with his and kisses me with everything he has. His hands are on my ass and gripping it tightly.

“You are not going anywhere. I do not hate you and I love you more than anything in this world. I understand why you would think this but you are stuck with me. I believe that we are one of the three souls that were split. Ialways felt that this was more than a mate bond.” He tells me.

I look up at him and can see he is telling me the truth. He wiped my tears away, and we stood there for a while. I know Chris is responsible for this, and while I am mad at him for telling Kaleb all of my fears at the same time, Iam grateful. I sure as hell won't tell him that, though. Kaleb says we need to go back inside, and a new panic attack starts. He keeps his arms around me and runs his hands up and down my back to calm me down. I shootMykenzie a quick thing telling her that we are both wanted, and she is freaked out as well. Here we go, another disaster in the making.
