Chapter 0389 - Knox ~ "Immobilise, as in..." I press further. Ezra indicated there was something that Kaia and Hector were hiding, but this...it seems a little far fetched.
But then I've just witnessed my own mate heal a child with her own hands. With a red glow emit from her hands...therefore at the moment I'm willing to be a little open minded.
"It's exactly how it sounds." Hector responds his eyes rolling into the back of his head as he seems to be struggling more with Kaia's admission more than she is.
"You're cursed too?" The execution in her words tugs at my heart, the sadness in Josie's voice isn't hard to miss and I was so determined to get her hthat I didn't stop and ask how she was coping. Whether it caused her pain, whether it took energy from her to complete.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuddenly the very thought of that haseven more on edge.
Josie was a natural healer, which completely makes sense now. How she has a natural flare for remedies using plants and herbs, how she has the patience like a saint.
But what if a concoction can't heal an injury, a disease...what if it needs to cfrom her directly. It terrifiesbecause she is the most selfless person I have ever met...she would stop at nothing to heal somebody if it was in her power to do so.
"Cursed, absolutely not..." Kaia reaches for Josie's hands, where she pulls them into her chest and holds them there.
"My darling, this is a blessing, you are blessed, not cursed." "I don't understand, why didn't you say anything?" Josie melts into her Mum's touch.
"We already knew raising three children under such a limelight would be a challenge to your anonymity....we didn't want to put you three in danger. It is already rare to be the children of two alphas, let alone have special gifts. We have done the best we can to hide things from the past and prepare for the future." Meaning they have rewritten history. I'm not going to inform Josie of the past, not when it still has the ability to bring chaos to her future.
But that doesn't mean I won't be asking Hector questions. He may be her father and I may overstep the barrier between us, but I will protect her by any means necessary.
"Why would we need to remain anonymous?" Josie asks the question that I was dying for her to ask. Perhaps she is realising how guarded she truly has been. Yes she's been allowed to train, yes she's been allowed to use guns...but all under the careful watch of the Dark Phantom Alpha.
"Listen tovery carefully Josie, you mustn't tell anybody of your ability. Especially as you are trying to make sense of it all. You need to assfrom now on that nobody can be trusted." Hector warns, his arm landing on Kaia's hip as he pulls her closely into his side. His eyes moving to mine.
For over 19 years he has kept his mate safe, done the unspeakable I'm sure.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI'm starting to get a window into Hector's soul, get to see the true notorious Dark Phantom Alpha that I heard about as a child.
Why do I feel as if he has lived a life I am also fated to live. Both mated to a moon blessed wolf.
The office phone starts to ring, Hector growling as he moves towards his desk.
"What is it?" Kaia asks him as he picks the phone up and puts it down straight away.
"I told them we were not to be disturbed." He clicks his tongue m ve before moving back towards us.
"Can you explain to Dad andwhat happened, how your ability presented itself?" "Yes." Josie nods before taking a deep breath in and continuing.
"I had already seen to Petra, she was having difficulty breathing. Then I moved on to Kieran after assessing Petra as not needing anything more than oxygen for the tbeing. We..." She stops to look atand I nod in agreement before she continues. "We both put Kieran's shoulder back in place. He was no longer screaming but he was still uncomfortable from the pain...I just wanted to help him, to take it away.
