The Aftermath
Grayson pov
I woke up with Sydney still laying beside me. She drained all her energy plus the hunters energy to end this war. I worried that this might affect the baby even more, she hasn't woken up yet but the doctor said it would take time before she did.
I left her a note in case she did wake while I got ready for the day and headed to the Alpha's office.
I walked into the Alpha's office as Alpha Trevor and Wesley were already there waiting for me.
"Good morning, I wasn't expecting anyone to be here yet."
"Good morning Lycan, and thank you again for yesterday.........you and your mate saved us." Alpha Trevor bowed his head in respect after he spoke.
Wesley knodded a quick good morning.
"We now need to deal with the aftermath, do we have a could of how many of our wolves were killed or injured. What about a count for the hunters?"
"For the wolves, death count is at 10. We do have injuried about 30 from my last count but nothing to terrible, most will heal themselves in a couple days." Alpha Trevor spoke.
"And the hunter count?"
"All are dead, either by our hands or by Sydney's. Not one that we could find had survived." Wesley spoke.
Bang
We all turned to the door to see Annabelle, Wesley rushed to her side.
"What's wrong Belle?"
"You didn't get him.....he's not among the dead.....he's still alive!!!"
"Who is still alive?" I questioned her.
She looked at me as if she just realized I was in the room.
"My fiancee."
Wesley growled and pulled Annabelle tighter into his chest.
"That can't be......anyone who was on the field was killed!"
"Then he must have escaped right before everyone was killed.......all I know is I went to say good bye to that piece of shit of an uncle and then I wanted to make sure he was there too but he wasn't but I know I saw him when Sydney and I were on the field."
"Okay, we will look into it Annabelle. Tell us everything you can about him."
"I don't know much really, my uncle was making him the new leader of the hunters after he retired and.......we got married. His name is Sebastian, he has learned all about the testing and how to lead Hunters from my uncle. He is just as deadly as him. When I ran away with Wesley, I wasn't thinking straight and forgot about the tracking device. If he escaped he could come after me any time which means no matter where I go I will bring death to all around me."
"Can we remove the tracking device?"
"I....I don't know. It was so long ago I'm not sure if you can remove it now."
I looked at Wesley who was still holding on to Annabelle.
"Wes, take Annabelle to the pack hospital. Have them do a scan to see if it's possible to remove the tracking device from her safely. Let me know what they say."
"Yes, Lycan."
He got up holding Annabelle bridal style and left the office heading for the pack hospital.
I turned my attention back to Alpha Trevor.
"Looks like we have one more rat, to get rid of before you can have your pack house back."
"How do you think we will be able to get rid of him?"
"I feel like Annabelle is going to be the key but we need to see if we can remove the tracking device before we have any plan in place. While we wait I am going to check on my beautiful Etheral."
I smiled and looked to Alpha Trevor who knodded his head.
"I will let you know if any news comes in."
"Thank you."
And with that I walked out the door and headed back to my room.
I slowly opened the door so I wouldn't disturb Sydney if she was still sleeping.
"Hello there, handsome."
She smiled brightly at me.
"I hope you rested well."
"I did I guess I used more energy than I thought."
"Sydney, how did you know how to do that?"
"I spoke to my mother and she told me what needed to be done in order for us win, she said it require concentration and I would need to borrow from the hunters life force to complete it all."
Then it dawned on me, she was nervous seeing his mother. For everything that they went through there and now she was to go back there with our baby.
"Sydney, she knows everything already about us.....about the baby too."
"What? how?"
"Wesley spoke to her for me but she already knew we were together and she's already looking into the baby for us."
She sighed then smiled.
"I'm glad she knows."
She got out of bed and stood up, I held her in my arms and rested my chin on her head.
"We must get going Grayson."
She then headed to the shower. I followed her to the bathroom.
"Going?"
"Yes......we need to get Wesley and Annabelle and head to his pack house. We are done here, they are safe now."
"Uumm actually Annabelle said her ex fiancee is still alive. She is going to see if they can remove the tracking device from her arm."
"No worries, we will figure that out. I need to go to her so leave so I can shower."
I chuckled as I smiled up at her. I kissed her on her cheek and turned and left the room.
She got showered and dressed as quickly as a girl can and then came out of the room. I stood up and met her in the middle of the room.
"You look beautiful princess." I leaned in and kissed her cheek.
She blushed red as I held her in my arms.
"Let's go see them."
"There in the pack hospital to see if they can remove it safely."
"Well, we better hurry then."
I looked at her confused but followed her out the door and to the pack hospital. Everyone we passed bowed there heads as we approached. We finally made it to the hospital. Wesley was waiting at the entrance of the hospital.
"Wesley?"
"About time you two got here."
We looked at each other and then back to Wesley.
"Annabelle said to wait for you here to bring you to her."
I laughed, Annabelle knew we were coming.
"We don't have your mate wait any longer than."
We followed Wesley back into the room to see Annabelle.
"Annabelle?" Sydney spoke softly to her.
"Sydney, your finally here."
"Yes I am, sorry it took so long my energy was drained."
"No worries. I wanted to know if there was anything you could do to block or remove the signal?"
"For your tracking device?"
"Yes, just in case they can't remove it."
"I'm not sure I've never tried."
Sydney walked closer to the bed and then turned to us.
"Boys, please give us a minute alone please."
Sydney pov
I watched as the boys left the room.
"Annabelle, are you sure you want to try this? I'm not sure what the side effects could be."
"Yes please, I don't want to put anyone else in danger."
"Okay, I will try."
I sat down in a chair next to her bed.
"Now where is the tracking device at?"
"Well they injected me in my arm with it, it was very small but not sure if it traveled or not."
"Okay, well we will start there then."
I put my hands over her shoulder area, my hands grew blue but nothing happened. I travelled further down her chest not sure if what I was doing was working for her or not. All of a sudden my hands grew bright blue at her abdomen area, I stood up as it grew brighter. I kept my hands there hoping it was doing something.
I felt a sting from my hands as I was thrown backwards as I hit the wall. Wesley and Grayson both ran in as Annabelle bolted up. They ran to me and helped me up.
"Sydney?" Grayson said as he looked me in the eyes.
"I'm fine, really......but the baby?"
I put a hand on my stomach as he looked down, I had scratched my stomach when I went flying.
"I'm sure I'm okay."
I looked at him with a weak smile.
"Nope, not happening. You will get checked before we leave."
He picked me up bridal style and before we left the room I looked at Wesley.
"Wes, have them do a full body scan to see if it worked. I think I did it though."
Wes smiled and knodded at me.
"Thanks Syd, I will. Now go check on your baby."
I smiled and then Grayson carried me out of the room to go get tests done.
They put me in a room to do an ultrasound, I was a priority so got a doctor in real quick to look at me.
They put the gel on my stomach and started moving around my stomach. He pointed to the screen and we looked.
"This is your baby right here Lycan and Luna. Your baby is fine and health but......"
"But what?" Grayson yelled.
"The baby has an extra protective layer around your placenta. It doesn't seem to be harmful but we should really watch you Luna to be safe."
"Thank you doctor." I said politely and bowed his head before leaving.
I looked at Grayson, and smiled.
"We should leave tomorrow Grayson, we need to go to Wesley's pack."
He kissed the top of my head.
"Okay, but for now rest. You and our baby need it before we begin our journey."
And with that I closed my eyes and fell asleep with his hand in mine.
