Chapter 29.
Estella’s POV.

Collin’s arms weigh me down, pressing my body in to the bed as I feel the heat radiate off his warming me. I inhale his scent and it calms my mind, my heart beats softly as I feel a small flutter along my stomach making me jump.
“What’s wrong?” Collin launches himself up drastically now wide awake as I push my fingers in to my belly focusing on what I just felt. Was that a movement?
“Nothing sorry, I just thought I felt something.” I say as he lays back down with me closing his eyes and I feel his body relax against me.

We lay together for a few minutes before I take a deep breath and finally decide to get up, I stand in front of the mirror brushing my hair when Collin comes in behind me running his hands along my hips and over my belly.
“I can’t wait till you have a big round belly.” He says chuckling as my face drops not knowing how to react.
“Well I’m definitely not excited for that.” I say laughing while getting ready to brush my teeth.

When we are done our morning routine we meet the girls downstairs in the kitchen, Steele, Amelia and Clover are all sitting at the table chatting and laughing away as the cooks set bacon and eggs down, I grab the juice from the fridge and go over to the counter.
“Good morning Luna.” They all say together making me laugh.
“Good morning everyone. Amelia and I have an appointment with the doctor this morning after that we will all meet in the garden to work on our magic?” I ask looking over to Clover as she nods stuffing her face.

“Good, Loral will be showing up this afternoon so we have to finish up shortly after lunch.” I say grabbing my food sitting to join them. We quickly eat before Amelia and I get ready to meet Doctor Marlowe, walking in to the office Amelia clings to me tightly. Her fingers press in to my skin as I softly rub her Hands trying to calm her down.
“It’s ok, we are safe here.” I say as she nods frantically still clinging.

I bring her to the Alpha exam rooms and Amelia sits down while I go to the sink to grab us some water, she seems very uncomfortable and it hurts to watch her.
“Are you ok?” I sit down handing her water to her.
“It’s all so bright.” She says with her head down holding the glass in her hands.
“It will get easier, it will be a bit of an adjustment but I will be here to help you. You are apart of our pack now which means we will take care of you.” I smile as she slowly looks up to me tears threatening to fall.

A small knock comes before the door flys open and in walks Doctor Marlowe.
“Good. Morning ladies.” She says softly as she flips through the papers in her hands.
“Well your tests came back, and Amelia is your biological sister. Your markers match up so well I actually think you both had the same mother and father.” She says making my mind flash to the birth certificates, why was the father listed unknown on the one we found?

I smile brightly looking over to Amelia as she looks stunned and my smile fades.
“Ok Estella, up on the table please.” She states as I do what I’m told moving my shirt up over my belly. She pushes and pokes away at me before putting the gel on and pulling the monitor over.
“Ok baby is measuring at the right size for how far along you are and the heart beat is strong.” She turns the screen hitting a button as a small thumping sound fills the room and I realize the huge smile across my face.

Amelia comes over standing beside me looking at the screen in awe, you can now see the little arms and legs forming and getting bigger.
“You should start to feel light flutters and movements soon.” The doctor says as she moves the wand around looking at the screen. She finishes and I sit up, wiping the gel off my belly as she talks to Amelia about her blood work and how she will need to be on supplements for a while till her body heals, she gives her a gown to change in to so she can get some scans.

After we’re done we head to the garden to meet Steele and Clover, the doctor took longer then I expected so we don’t have a lot of time before Loral will be here.
“Amelia, the woman who is coming today is our grandmother.” She doesn’t take her eyes off the ground as we walk.
“She is the Queen off the fairies and she’s very nice.” I say softly trying to get her to answer, she’s been so quiet since we got here.

We find Steele and Clover sitting on a blanket in a meadow beside the garden, they are drinking cider laughing away as they lay in the grass.
“Well you two seem to be having fun.” I laugh joining them on the blanket.
“Hey! How was your appointment?” Steele says moving over for Amelia to sit with us.

“Well we are sisters, apparently with the same father.” I say as her face drops.
“Wow really? I wonder why his name wasn’t on her birth certificate?” She says as I shrug my shoulders and Clover sits up quickly clapping her hands together.
“Ok you learned how to move the air to pick the flowers up, now lets see if you can do it on a bigger scale.” She says sitting on her knees as she closes her eyes and we all watch.

The air around us becomes dense and heavy before it starts to gently breeze harder with each moment gradually picking up, she twirls her hands around in small graceful circles as the wind continues. The peaceful whooshing sound flowing through the trees putting me in a trance and I grab her hands closing my eyes to join her, her magic pulls mine to the surface. I focus in on the wind, the way it moves and feels, I feel it flow through me as the air moves faster bending the branches on the trees and I hear my name get called snapping me out of it as I stop, placing my hands down looking over to see where my name came from.

Collin is walking up with two servers carrying trays.
“The Queen will be here soon, the servers will be setting the tables outside for lunch.” He says as I nod waiting for him to leave.
“Also stop trying to tornado the pack lands, it’s freaking people out.” He says laughing before he turns to go back inside. We continue playing with our magic for a few more moments, Collin returns with Loral in tow as we all get up to join them on the patio.

The servers bring out lunch as we all begin to talk, Loral takes Amelia’s hands in hers as she rubs them gently. Amelia watches her contently while her hands move along with hers.
“I don’t feel any magic.” Loral says as confusion crosses her face.
“With you I could at least sense it.” She finishes as she closes her eyes tightly holding on to Amelia.

Amelia flinches back as Loral holds her tightly and her face turns in pain, a few seconds later Amelia screams as sparkling power bursts from the two of them washing over all of us. Amelia holds her hand close to her cringing as she catches her breath.
“Ok, lets check again dear.” Loral says softly as Amelia shakes her head not wanting to.
“It’s ok Amelia she just wants to see if she fixed your magic.” I answer while she just stares at me unsure of weather or not to give her hand back.

She slowly pulls her hand away from her chest handing it slowly back to Loral, as she reaches for her sparks fly from their touch.
“What was that?” Amelia asks pulling her hand back once again looking at her fingers.
“That’s your magic dear.” Loral says with a smile. “They seem to have been feeding you poppy dust. Your powers were binded but adding the poppy dust numbed them fully.” She says, that’s when I realize it.

“When we were trapped with the rogues Clover and I couldn’t even sense each other’s powers.” I say as Loral’s eyes dart over to me.
“So they did it to you too.” She says thinking for a moment before Collin jumps up drastically.
“ROGUES!” He shouts making us all jump up looking around.

“Everyone in the castle!”’ He demands, we see a line of rogues blowing through the pack lands towards us. Everything moves in slow motion and I watch the wolves run, Clover try’s to pull me along with her as Steele and Collin shift preparing to take off when Loral raises her hands.
“Enough!” She yells loudly before a ring of fire ignites across the pack in front of the castle, she blocks the rogues from getting closer as I stand still watching stunned.

The fire spreads out racing towards the rogues as they all fall back howling in retreat, yipping screams echo through the air, some of them get burned taking off back in to the forest, we watch them all run in fear as Loral’s hands come down and the fire dissipates and we decide to move our meeting in to the castle just to be safe.
