After watching some of my favorite movies while having popcorn and snacks we go have dinner and decided to take a small nap. I woke up to see it was 3: pm brushed my hair then walked downstairs to see Emma, mamma Rose, and Stella preparing for a picnic. I smile at them and walk toward them.
“Is there anything I can do to help you guys?” I ask them.
“No, why don’t you go and play with others?” Emma asks smiling at me, I nod my head at her and play outside her mansion with Cole, Kelvin, and Ryan while Mike is busy in doing pack business. At 4:30 Stella came and told us to get ready for the picnic. We went to our room, and I decided to wear a black with white flora dress, and the crescent moon eating that Stella had given me on my 15th birthday.
I get ready and walk down to the living room to see Emma, Stella, and Mama Rose packing the things in the basket.
“Are you going to teleport us to the place you have chosen for a picnic or are we going to drive to that place?” Cole asks while taking the cooler in his hands.
“No, we are going to drive there, because if I teleport us there, then it will gain too much attention from others and other creatures can track us down by tracking my magic,” Emma said while grabbing the basket in her hand. We walk outside of the mansion and they upload all the things in the car trunk.
“Nikki, Kelvin, and Ryan will come with me to my car, you and others go in another car,” Emma said throwing the car keys towards Cole and getting inside the driver’s seat. Ryan takes a shotgun while Kelvin and I sit in the backseat. Emma starts the engine and drives to our destination while Cole and others follow behind us.
It takes us half an hour for us to get there. Emma has chosen a nearby park for our picnic spot where only a few people are there having a picnic with their families. We get out of the car and Emma guides us to our picnic spots. It’s a little bit closer to the forest where we can see other people having a picnic with their families but they can’t see us.
Emma and others were setting all the things on the ground while I decided to go to the lake and feed the ducks. After some time when they were done, Kelvin, Stella, Cole, and Ryan played tag while others just seat on the blanket and watched us playing with each other and making small talk.

I was running after Nikki to catch her when I saw Nikki fall to the ground with a groan and started shivering furiously. I run towards her and am about to take her in my arms but Emma stops me.
“Don’t touch her,” she said while grabbing my wrist stopping me from taking her in my arms.
“What is happening to her?” I ask worriedly seeing Nikki tossing and turning in pain.
“It was the time when she took birth 16 years ago, right now, she is getting her powers back with full force, that’s why she is in so much pain and burning like the sun if you touch her, you will get burn,” she said to me.
“Is there nothing we can do to help her?” Kelvin asks her while walking toward us. And she shook her head with us and I felt Roy whimper inside my head unable to see his mate in pain. After some time, I saw the red smoke coming out of her body and she stopped turning and tossing to the ground. After 5 minutes the smoke stops and I stare in wonder as I see her hair grow long and become smooth and silky while her skin becomes smoother and more flawless.
If she had looked beautiful before then right now, she looks like an angel in human disguise, even more, beautiful than before. She slowly opens her eyes and her hazel sparkles like a star. I feel Emma withdraw her hand I immediately hold her in my arms.
“Nikki, are you okay? Are you hurt? Are you still in pain?” I ask her while looking at her for any injury or any sign showing that she is hurt.
“I… I am fine,” she said with an exhausted smile on her face.
“Here, please have some water, you will feel better,” Emma said and made her drink some water.
“Feeling better?” Emma asked and she nodded her head at her.
“We better take her a little deeper inside the forest,” Emma said and we looked at her questioningly.
“She is going to shift into her wolf form, after half an hour, which will make her smell even stronger to attract the creatures, and I will also be going to need you to shift in your wolf form because she will need you in your wolf form so that you can help her shift, heirs are going to be even more painful than for any other werewolf, come fast, we don’t have much time,” Emma said and start walking towards the forest. I take Nikki in my arms and follow her.
“This place will do,” Emma said after walking for some time.
“Keep him down on the floor, and shift in your wolf, and hold her in your arms,” she said to me. I kept her on the ground shifted in my wolf and hovered over her, making sure that I didn’t crush her down with my body.
Emma looks around her surroundings until she finds the thing she is looking for; she walks towards the tree and grabs a branch from there. She makes a huge circle around us and then sits beside us. We heard a few footsteps and turned to see my family, Kelvin, and Ryan walking toward us.
“Please, do not cross the circle,” Emma said to them and they nodded their head at her. She turns and closes her eyes while murmuring something under her breath in a foreign language.
