Chapter 16: War
"As you wish" Dom says as he stands ready to pounce.
Our warriors and pack members all come running and take the stands around the territory. We have them completely surrounded.
" Sky light stand down! " jarred mom says using her Luna tone. The pack members that were willing to fight stood down and mumbled a yes Luna to her.
"Joe what is going on ? "
"A war! " he stated as he lunged at Dom.
Dom was quick to step to the side and Joe landed on all fours. He turned around and snapped his jaws at Dom .
Dom shifted quickly and started circling Joe. The members of joes pack shifted and joined the fight.
My pack was taking them down quickly. As I was watching the fighting I hear faith yell for me to watch out.
I turn to see my mother running at me I brace my self as I get ready to fight her.
She swings her fist at my face , I quickly duck and swing my fist , it hits her under her chin and I hear a crack. I smirk as I see her stumble and grab her jaw.
"I'm not the same weak little girl mother" I growl out at her.
She laughs a wicked laugh. "You will always be weak " she states as she swings her leg to kick me. I catch her leg and grab her by her throat and throw her in to a post.
She hit the post with force and I here her gasp as the air was knocked out of her.
" You are wrong mother , I am stronger than anyone here ! I'm am more powerful than any witch alive. You are wrong about me in more ways then you know ! "
She struggles to get up but when she does she looks at me and says " I will have my revenge today !" With that she shifts and comes at me.
I don't bother moving or shifting I hold my head high and stand tall. With my Luna strength and powers I say one word " Heal " and with that her wolf stops instantly.
"Shift" I command her wolf. Her wolf listens .
"What the hell ?" She ask with confusion clear on her face. She uses her hands to try and cover her naked body.
" I told you mother I am more powerful then you know " I smirk at her as I go up to her.
Before I can say another word Faith is beside me and tells me to look around, I turn and what I see is unbelievable.
When I turned around I saw not only my pack but Skylight pack have stopped fighting and have all shifted back in human form. They were all looking at me some had confusion evident on their faces while my pack had pride on theirs.
Not only have the members stopped fighting and shifted but Dom and Joe have as well.
Dom has a few warriors get a hold of joe and walks up to stand beside me.
"You did this my beautiful mate" he says with pride.
"You stopped the blood shed with only 2 words, what will you like to do next my Luna ?"
"I want to deal with my mother first then we will deal with everyone else " he nods in response and steps to the side with our beta and third in commands are standing.
I turn back to my mother to see her looking around in disbelief.
"Mother" she snaps her head back to me. She raises an eye brow at me.
" You do know that I have loved you through all the years even when you have treated me like shit. Every time you kicked me. Every time she slammed me in to things . Every time you punched me in the face. Every time you used a sliver knife to cut hateful words into my body. Every time you called me names . Every time you turned the other way when I would scream for your help when Joe would beat me. Every time you allowed your friends to beat me until I was unconscious in a pool of my own blood. Every time you have blamed me for my sister and fathers death. Even when you took me away from my mate and pack! I have loved you ! I said with so much emotion,
She stared at me with a blank face. I couldn't see any emotion in her eyes. I decided to continue.
"I am your daughter by blood, but you are right mother I'm no longer your daughter. I have changed, I will never forget the good times we shared when Mae and father where here with us. I hope one day you realize the mistake you made by blaming me for their death and for all the pain you have caused me." I said genuinely to her.
"I will ask you one time mother , and please before you respond think before you speak . Are you ready to let go and move on and stop blaming me ? Or do you want to continue fighting with me and if you chose to fight it will be till death. So please make you choice now. "
"She seems to be thinking Kelly " Athena chimes in
"I hope she chooses not to fight cause I really don't want to kill her but I do know we will have to if she does want to fight."I whimper back to Athena .
"I chose to fight" she says with her head up high.
"Well she definitely is a strong willed women." Athena states.
"Yea also has stubbornness " I growl in frustration to Athena.
"Jeez calm down" she snaps back before blocking me out. I huff and focus back on my mother.
" It truly makes me sad that this is the route you want to take, you do understand it's to the death and no will jump in to save you or me. "
"Yes I understand." She says as she stand up tall looking me in the eyes.
"Fair enough " I State and stand just as tall and ready as her.
I wait for her to make her first move. I watch her body language to determine her move. I see she is leaning to her left which make me see she is making her move. I quickly jump over her doing a flip, I land perfectly.
She turns around and I connect my fist to her face. She growls out at me which lets me know she is pissed and is about to shift.
I let her shift and decide I will to now. Once I shift into my beautiful sliver wolf ,you can hear the gasp through out the yard , not by my pack of course but the sky light pack .
I shake my fur out and show my teeth as a growl at my mother , her eyes widen in realization at just how powerful I truly am .
She unexpectedly shift back into her human form and I follow. She lunges at be but I'm faster and instantly use my claws to slice gash across her stomach. She gasp and falls to the ground.
I know right then the fight is over. I kneel down beside her and grab her hand in mine.
"Why mother , why did you make me do this." I say to her as tears start coming down my face. Yes I know how bad she has treated me but she is the women who gave birth to me, she was once a very caring loving mother. Which is why I can't ever hate her.
" Kelly"she coughs out. "Thank you" she says as she rubs my tears away. I look at her dumbfounded.
"Thank you for what mother ?"
"For given me my wish, for reuniting me with my mate. " she says with a genuine smile. I cry a little harder.
" I'm so sorry kel for everything, I hope the moon goddess can forgive me for what I have done to you my sweet girl, stay strong ,keep that strength you showed to day ! Your father would be proud" she says in between trying to breath. I squeeze her hand and nod.
She inhaled one last time and falls limp ,showing no sign of life. I whisper a "I love you " to her.
I have no idea how long I just sat beside her looking at her as I let the tears flow freely.
Dom had everyone under control. He took the ones who wouldn't submit into the cells and the ones that did submit to him he had our pack members help them gather their belongings so they can come to our territory so we can get records on everyone and join them into the pack.
Once they were done Dom came over to me and wrapped his arms around me and lifted me up. I wrapped my arms around his neck and laid my head on his shoulder.
"You did a great job today my love. I hope you see that"
" I do Dom , I just want to go home now. "
With that he gets me in the suv and tells me that he has sent some members to get my moms body so they can bury her beside my father and sister.
The drive home was silent no one talked. We arrived back at the house.
I turned to everyone as we entered and said my good nights and walked upstairs to my and Dom's room.
I was tired from today and just wanted to shower and lay with my mate, so that's what I did.
Once I laid my head on his chest he wrapped his arms around me and held me. I let the darkness consume me and wash the day away.
