Chapter 26

  Jakes POV

  "Please tell me your not seriously going to go through with it? Are you even listening to how f**king crazy you sound right now. Nick please man even you know how f**ked up that sounds surely?" I asked them.

  "Jake calm down mate they haven't said what their going to do yet. I th…" I cut Benson off before he could finish.

  "Calm down! You want me to calm down? Sure I'll calm down, just as soon as you morons come to your f**king senses. Seriously William you have tried to contact Selena for days now with no success, and then out of nowhere she calls on you, making you collapse cutting your f**king head open in the process and then tells you the witches can draw from you and my mate while she's in some sort of f**king coma. Please tell me where the sense is in that. Henrik said the spell is risky as it is and that she needs to be strong enough to wake up once it's done, drawing from her is only going to weaken her! If I'm wrong tell me because this is the most f**ked up thing I have heard all day!" I lost my temper and just roared at them.

  "Ok you really need to calm down. Your shouting your mouth off in a hospital of all bloody places. Jake listen to me." I took Jakes hands and made him face me. "All William has done is tell you what he's been told by the moon godde…"        "Marie you don…."

  "Jake do not interrupt when I'm talking to you it's rude and I'm sure your parents raised you better then that. As I was saying, William hasn't said he is going to do what has been suggested he's only informing you as Angels mate what has been said. I understand why your pissed off, believe you me I do, I really do. I raised that girl for sixteen years making her into the kind, compassionate young lady she has become and the thought of her not coming back scares me. Ask anyone that has ever known me. I don't scare easy. The last time I was this scared was when her mother, my 'best friend'entrusted me with her daughter just before she died. I really don't want to fail Vanessa. And I know that William doesn't want to either. At the end of the day Angel is his daughter and whether you, me or Nick like it, the truth of the fact is he gets to make the final decision." Marie just looked at William hoping he would choose correctly.

  Marie was right, I didn't like it one bit but what choice did I have. I looked at all the faces in the room they were all staring at me. Turning around I stormed out slamming the door shut behind me. I must have looked like a stroppy kid but I couldn't give a f*ck. Angel was, is my future and if something was to go wrong I'd never forgive myself for not trying everything I could.

  "William needs to let Henrik draw from them" Hunters voice was calm as it rang out in my mind.

  " What the f*ck Hunter you can't be serious. You heard Henrik she needs to be strong. You of all people should be on my side" I scowled him.

  "I don't know how,  but I know she will be ok. I can feel it. I can't explain but the goddess is right I know she is"

  Ignoring Hunter I went to my alphas suite and locked the door. I walked to the lounge section and sat down on one of the black leather stools at my bar. Picking up my crystal decanter and a glass I poured myself a drink. America Eagle Tennessee Bourbon the only drink that took the edge off. As notes of toasted oak, vanilla, fudge, bittersweet orange and spicy white pepper touched my tastebuds I began to calm down. Why should I care that it's only 11' o' clock, not caring certainly seems to be the theme today.    After I felt myself completely relax I stood up and walked into the bedroom I just wanted to be near to Angel incase everything went to shit and she didn't come back. Sitting at the edge of my bed once again was Selena.

  "Good afternoon Jake, I think you know why I'm here. What I told William is true. Drawing from him and Angel will be enough to wake her. She is less likely to experience the side effects if done this way. You know I'm invested in your futures together so why on earth do you think this is the wrong way?" She asked me her smile not once leaving her face.

  "You ignored William for days now all of a sudden you have a resolution. Seems a bit off to me" i told her with a stern voice.

  "I didn't respond as I didn't have an answer to give. I can not solve all problems Jake. I wish I could but I simply can not constantly intervene. I have had to make a deal of my own just to get this information. You must let this happen. Jason knows that the Geminis cast spells during a full moon and in doing so would likely attack. They may be more powerful at this time but whilst casting such a spell they won't be able to defend themselves and wake Angel. She will be lost if that happens. He will not expect you to have it performed during daylight. Do the right thing if not for yourself and your pack do it for her" she said as she gently caressed Angels face.       Before I could ask her more about the deal she made she faded from sight. I walked into the bathroom letting the cold water run into the sink. I stared at myself in the mirror not knowing what to do or think. I splashed the cold water over my face and headed back to my office. I mind linked Benson and told him to bring Henrik with him to my office. As they arrived and sat down I asked Henrik if what Selena said was possible. He said it was and he was surprised he hadn't thought About it himself. Benson asked him how long they would need before they were ready, to which Henrik said they would need two hours. Two hours to prepare and ready themselves and then I would finally have my sleeping beauty back.

  Henrik's POV

  I told Jake we needed two hours but truthfully we could have cast the spell there and then. I headed back to the guest quarters where the members of my coven were waiting. I had only bought five members with me leaving the remainder of the coven back home. When William originally found us I told him the price for our help would be the power that lies within his blood but as we arrived at the Moonlight Pack Sadie had once of her visions. Her visions were always changing and were based on the decisions we make. This one however was different. This one she said would be set in stone if William paid up.

  This particular vision showed the death of my coven, each and every one of us. It showed us being under attack after helping wake Angel. William and the rest of the pack fought to protect us and their own but failing in the process. Sadie said that had William retained his powers he and Angel together would save the day with no casualties on our end. I felt bad that the wolves would still be affected but we had to look out for our own.

  Gathering the quartz stone, the grimoire and our covens symbolised cross we placed them in the centre of the room creating a circle round them as we joined hands. We each closed our eyes and chanted a blessing over the items. Once completed I put the items in the bag and we made our way to the alphas suite. Before the afternoon was out we will have woken the Princess ensuring the survival of my coven.
