Tyson POV
I watched in horror as the house burnt around them, my brother and sister-in-law trapped inside. We should have stopped him from entering, now two lives would be lost. The paddocks around full of dead grass made me nervous, the old barns would go up if they caught alight along with the surrounding forest.
Ace placed Lucy in the car but now we had another issue to contend with, the fire was growing out of control and threatening the neighboring forest surrounding it. A tree was next to the kitchen burning already, embers being picked up in the wind and blown into the treeline. Ace growls while pacing as he stared at our childhood home burning, clutching his hair.
“What is taking him so long,” Ace growls worried for Ryker who had not yet come out of the burning house.
“Where is Ryker,” comes Aamon’s voice behind me and I jump. I stare at him in shock and Aamon clutches my arms looking me dead in the face.
“Where is your brother?”
“Trying to save Reika,” I tell him, pointing to the house. Aamon looks at the burning building. He mutters something too low to hear before misting, vanishing into thin air. Sirens sounded in the distance and all I could do was stare, Reika’s screams of agony died out, in what felt like hours ago.
“Watch out,” someone screams before the old oak tree beside the house falls. Warriors rushing to put out the blaze.
“We need to put it out, before the forest goes up,” Ace yells, and I see Melana rush past us, a bucket of water in her hands. I completely forgot about her with all the chaos.
Ace growls, also spotting her before he storms toward, her a terrifying growl escaping him as he grabs her.
“You did this, you had to have known,” he snarls. Her face changes color turning purple as he squeezes her throat, crushing her windpipe when yells can be heard.
“Get the pack doctor,” Ace and I look up and his hands unwind from around Melanas throat and she gasps rubbing her neck.
“Ryker?” I gasp before taking off running toward Aamon who was performing CPR on him.
Another warrior working on Reika who looked like she was boiled alive, her skin melted off in parts when she suddenly stopped breathing. Ace barges the man out of the way, his hands going to her chest.
“She needs blood, get blood” I tell those crowding around them before biting into my wrist, I kneel beside Reika holding my wrist above her mouth while Ace pumps her chest and I feed her my blood.
“Come on buddy,” Aamon tells Ryker before breathing into his mouth and pumping his chest again.
“Where is the Pack doctor,” Aamon snarls, and the wolves surrounding him step back, his demonic eyes glaring at them.
“On his way, he should be here soon,” someone in the crowd yelled out. The sirens getting closer and I bite my wrist again prying the wound open trying to heal Reika while Aamon tried to save my brother, Ace’s hands working just as fast.
“The forest, the forest,” some calls out.
“Fuck, Avery be good if you could get here soon,” Aamon breathes out.
“How did you know?” I ask biting into my wrist yet again and placing it over Reika’s mouth, my blood flowing down her throat.
“A text message, Melana sent to the school mobile, I rang her back and she said Ryker was in trouble,”
I look at Ace whose brows furrow before scanning the place for her but not seeing her anywhere. Focusing back on the task at hand I go back to trying to help revive Reika.
“What is taking authorities so long,” I growl. Watching the trees ignite one by one, the forest was going to burn, so much wildlife will be killed when I hear an engine before a loud bang, Jacob’s car is plowed out the way as the bulldozer from the barn crashed through the wire fence, and into the side of his car. Thinking of Jacob I hadn’t seen him, which made me glance at the house
“Quick move out of the way,” One of the warriors yelled and I look at the bulldozer to see Melana bouncing around in it as she steered it toward the house.
“Move out of the way,” She bellowed out the cab window. I thought for sure she would have taken off after Ace grabbed her and I was a little shocked to see she remained to help instead of saving her own ass.
The sirens become louder and I hear a gasp and Reika takes a breath but Aamon was working on Ryker still. Reika’s breathing was shallow but she was alive barely but alive. Her body fell slack but her chest still rose and fell. The forest was burning out of control and Melana plowed into the packhouse the blade of the dozer crashing into the stonework bringing the place down easily and reducing it to rubble, heat from the flames blowing over us when Avery suddenly mists here, she appeared just down the driveway a little bit away from us. Clutching her knees like she was out of breath, her auburn hair falling down around her like a waterfall.
“The forest Babe, are you alright?” Aamon calls and she nods raising a thumb that he didn’t see. She coughs before standing upright and staggering and my eyes go wide when I see her huge round belly.
“Love, are you good?”Aamon calls and I get to my feet and rush over to her, gripping her arm and helping her walk.
” I’m fine,” She stammers before shaking my hand off and raising her arms. She looks at the sky before muttering to the bright sunny and clear sky. She had on a green Maxi dress that did nothing to hide the baby bump I couldn’t stop staring at.
“le fiamme si alzano fanno cadere i cieli lo fanno versare, annegano tutto.”
Her eyes turn black as coal, her hands shake, and the air ripples, storm clouds rolling across the sky rapidly, the day turning to night, and thunder and lightning lit up the sky. The thunder is deafening as it cracked and rolled loudly before it poured down.
Drenching rain as the sky opened up and a tidal wave of water crashed down on the flames. Winds so strong I fought to remain upright and Avery looked strained like she was holding the weight of the world up by her hands, blood dribbled down from her nose and steam rose and the flames died down.
“Avery enough,” Aamon calls out to her over the howl of the wind, Avery drops her hands and wobbles on her feet before clutching her knees just as the fire brigade tore up the driveway. Ambulances behind it and they look around in shock as the storm leaves just as quick as it appeared.
“Don’t just stand there help them,” I growl at the paramedics and point to my brother Aamon was still working on, I see the pack doctor jump out of one of the ambulances unfazed by Avery’s magic and he rushes toward Ryker just as Avery passes out, collapsing and I rush to grab her before she hits the dirt.
“Over here,” I call to the other Paramedic while clutching Avery, her huge swollen belly startled me. When did she fall pregnant?
“Mum?” Lucy’s voice trembles and I look up to see her standing there, her hands clutching her mouth.
“Mum!” She screams rushing over leaving Ace’s car door wide open as she drops next to her mother. Aamon comes over having the paramedics take over on Ryker and retrieve Avery from out of my arms.
“I got you, love, take what you need,” He whispers brushing her hair from her pale face.
