Chapter 67

Danny’s POV
“Are you ready?” Jason asks me, looking at his watch for the 50th time in the last 10 minutes. “Mandy will take us over, shortly” I tell him, looking at my watch again. It reads 9.59pm. “It’s the waiting that’s the…” “issue” Jason says as he looks around and I chuckle at him. “Imagine you are telling Simon how you thought he forgot to feed me and all Claudia hears is ‘got to feed me’” I inform him and we both piss ourselves laughing.
“Mandy; where’s Tracey and Claudia?” Jason asks Amanda as she rubs up against my leg with her neck. “They will be here momentarily; I have to get Joanna and Todd first. Goddess Selene would like to offer you both a once off meeting” Amanda says, smiling at Jason. “Once off meeting, with whom?” “With me” a man says, coming over from the edge.
“Dad” Jason says, running over and embracing the man. “There’s your answer, Jace” I say, smiling at him.
“Goddess Selene said, you have been very loyal and are risking yourself for your Alpha. She asked if I wanted to see you and Joanna; I jumped at the opportunity. Hello Daniel; I have heard great things about you” Cameron tells us, shaking my hand.
“He has indeed; I couldn’t ask for a better Betta” I answer him as two flashes of light come into the sanctuary. “Woah; I don’t think I could get used to that” Todd exclaims, looking around the sanctuary. “Dad?” Joanna whispers. “Hello, Jo” Cameron says, smiling at her.
“Dad” she screams again, running over to him and wrapping her arms around him. The tears pouring down her face. “It’s ok, baby girl” Cameron whispers to her.
“I will get the others now” Amanda says, ignoring Todd’s smile as another 5 flashes of light come into the sanctuary. “Danny” Claudia screams, bowling me over and kissing me. “Cameron?” Dad questions as Cameron turns to face him. “Henry” he says, embracing Dad.
Claudia stops kissing me to look at Cameron. “Uncle Cam; what are you doing here?” she gasps, only realising he was with us when Dad called him. “I was given an opportunity to come and see Jason and Joanna” he informs everyone.
“Dad; I want you to meet, Tracey” Jason says; ushering Tracey over to him. “It’s a pleasure to meet you” Cameron says, giving Tracey a hug. “Likewise; I have heard so much about you; from everyone” “All good, I hope” Cameron answers with a smirk. “As good as I could make it” Henry chuckles.
“Are you going to introduce me, Candy Floss?” “Candy Floss?” Jason asks. “She didn’t like Pumpkin because she said they taste disgusting and it was a resounding no to Babe. I know she likes Candy Floss” he says as Joanna, Claudia, Tracey and Chelsea start to giggle. “Not Candy Floss?” he asks the ladies.
“Darling, Sweetheart, Honey. All better than Candy Floss” Chelsea snickers at him. “Todd, nicknames are supposed to come from the heart. I understand the difficulty it is for you as I’m still debating if you have one. It should be something you want to call her and only her” I tell him, laughing as the light bulb goes off in his head. “Oh; I will think of something” he says, looking at Joanna.
“I saved 3 copies of the files and they are doozies. I have emailed a copy to Oliver, Dad and you Alpha Henry, using Danny’s email of course. Thanks for your password and no Claudia; I did not open your emails to him. You can stop giving me the evil eye” Tim announces, his arms wrapped around Chelsea.
“What’s on them?” Claudia asks, looking at Dad. “I won’t tell you, as Todd is here. We decided we will keep the files secret; if Michael asks him about them or suspects he knows something; he can answer truthfully” Tim responds, smiling at Todd.
“I will show you, when we are finished here. We weren’t able to get into them yet; I need the password” Dad tells Claudia “And Danny; you can access them via your email drop box. I encrypted them; same password as the file itself” Tim informs me.
“Why did Tim send the files and not you? All your message said was; got to River Moon Pack, already at Grandma Nelly’s place” Dad asks me, looking between myself, Todd, Jason and Tim. “We had someone by the name of Josiah follow us from the Silver Pride all the way to the River Moon Pack. 6 hours of dodging him. We noticed him when Joanna pulled over to allow Jesse to shift back to Danny” Todd starts the explanation. “I conjured a silver collar for Jesse’s neck and told him, my dog needed a toilet break” Tim adds, laughing as Jason, Todd, Joanna, and I, start laughing with him.
“What?” Claudia asks; “he didn’t like me peeing on him” Jesse snickers. “We finally lost him when Tim dropped some nails on the ground as we pulled into a gas station. The poor fella not only had a wolf pee on him; he had a blown tyre and two prisoners escape because of him; all in one day” Jason smirks. “Don’t forget to tell them; he’s a wolf, cat hybrid” Jesse includes. “Yes; we could smell him when he got out of the car” Tim informs everyone.
“Is this to do with Michael?” Cameron asks. “Yes” we all answer him in unison.
“There are whispers around the afterlife he is up to no good. You all need to be careful around him. He has a Vampire helping him; that is how he got myself and Scott” Cameron says, directing his statement toward Jason and Joanna.
“We are aware of Callum and we are doing everything we need to, as safely as we possibly can” Dad informs him, as another figure comes to the edge of the sanctuary and Todd’s eyes light up.
“Demi Rachael” Cameron says, bowing to mum. “Mum; your hair? It’s gorgeous” Claudia breathlessly says, looking at the changes in mum’s appearance. “Thank you, Claudia. There have been a few changes around here. Selene says it’s about time she got offered help. Cameron, please stop bowing at me” Mum tells us.
I look at Mum and then at Cameron. “Demi Rachael?” I whisper. “Yes, Danny. I had a meeting with the gods. I was appointed a demi goddess to Selene. I am; what do you kids call it these days? Her wingman, I believe” she answers, smiling at me. “My mum is a demi goddess” Todd states, looking at her.
“Yes, Todd. The gods were impressed by the help I have given to Selene’s chosen. Don’t let this go to your head. I was only doing what I could to protect my son” she answers, narrowing her eyes at him as he shuffles on the spot. “Joanna; I see Todd finally saw the light. I am happy for you” Mum adds, looking at Joanna’s neck.
“You’ve mated” Jason gasped, as we all realised, she finally took back her rejection. “Yes; Todd wanted to ensure Anastasia understands, I am the Luna of the River Moon Pack” she smiles, giving us a wink as my eyes rest on Todd’s mate mark. “I have a sister” I announce, giving Joanna a hug.
“What about me? I am mated too” Todd huffs and I purse my lips at him. “What do you want? A medal? You should have done it, a long time ago. You were as arrogant as your father; thinking the world revolves around you” Mum scolds him as I contain my laughter. “And don’t you laugh at him. You need to put your differences aside, to defeat the threat you have. You need him” she continues, scolding me also.
“Yes, demi mum” I whisper, bowing my head to her. “Welcome to the life of having a mother, gentlemen” Tim chuckles and mum narrows her eyes at him; causing him to jump. “Sorry, Luna Rachael” he whispers.
“I could get used to this” she giggles giving both Todd and I a hug with each arm. “Cameron; you need to say your goodbyes. It’s almost time to go” she adds.
“Joanna; be the best Luna you can be for the River Moon Pack and Jason; keep up your good work” Cameron says, giving each of them a hug. “I love you; Dad and miss you every day” Joanna cries; giving him a hug back. “I love you too; both of you. I am always with you” he says, as he shakes Dad’s hand and gives Claudia a hug. Then both he and mum walk to the edge of the sanctuary.
“I’ll send everyone back, now” Amanda says, nudging my leg with her nose. “Tim; come see us tomorrow. We will talk about what is going on with these files. Dad, I will call you when he gets to Grandma Nelly’s house” I say, as I give Claudia a kiss. “I miss you, Snow Blossom” I tell her as a flash of light sends me back to Grandma Nelly’s house.
“Let’s have a look at these files” I say to Jason, pulling out my phone. “Thank you, Danny” Jason says, looking at me. “It wasn’t me; I hadn’t asked Amanda yet. It was you; Goddess Selene must have sensed it” I tell him, as a tear trickles down his face.
“I am happy, I got to see Dad and finally introduce him to Tracey” he says, through a sob. “Do I need to give you a hug or something?” I tell him; smirking. “Come near me and I will put you on your ass” he chuckles as I open my emails and go to the encrypted files in my drop box.
“Fuck me” I say, as the first file appears. “What is it? What does it say?” Jason says, trying to look over my shoulder. “I know why Dad has a file and why he is a target” I tell him, looking down at my phone.
