Life with Them

Normal POV

"INCOMING!", someone yells. Jesse turns around to find a troubled Kawaii~Chan, holding a cake. "Jesse~Sama, can you help Kawaii~Chan with her cake please?", she asks. Jesse smiles and nods. Jesse waves her hand, and the blue magic starts to surround the cake. She then waved it to a table nearby. Obediently, it floats over to its destination and sits neatly in the center. Like winning an award, Jesse bowed. Kawaii~Chan quickly thanked her before running off. Jesse smiled again and headed to the nearby table and set down her present for Alina. "The little ones sure do grow up", she muttered and sighed. "So you're finally confirming that your old?", a familiar voice said. Jesse looked up to find her daughter, Anna, a beautiful woman, staring at her with a smirk on her face. "I never said that", Jesse' said and her eyebrows knitted together and her lips formed a frown. "I'm just kidding, Mom", Anna chuckled and pushed back a few hairs behind her ear. "Sure. Anyways, can you go with Leona to go greet Aphmau and Garroth?", Jesse asks and Anna nods and quickly runs outside. Jesse looked around and picked up a few streamers. The barn was decorated with balloons and streamers. In the middle was table, that held the birthday cake and a few presents. Today was the day, Aphmau, Jesse's warrior, will return and today is also the birthday of Alina.

Anna's POV and Thoughts

After catching up with Leona, which was very hard to do since she was a werewolf, we walked onto the dock. Today, Mom didn't seem like her normal self, well she is getting older, about 573 years old. I should ask her later. "Leona", I say and she turns to me. "Anna, you should let me do the babysitting, you can go to the party.", Leona says, gesturing to shoo me away. "Are you trying to get rid of me?", I ask and cross my arms. "No.", Leona shook her head. "I'm sorry, but my mother ordered me to go greet Auntie Aphmau and maybe babysit the little ones. Come on. Race you?", I ask and pull my feet in a running position. She smiles and she nods. I know she's a werewolf, but its fun. She doesn't move and I mutter a "GO". We both start running except I'm a little behind. My legs, in rhythm, start to go faster, my arms in rhythm as well. Then she's behind, and I'm speeding to the ship. I skid to a stop and she, mouth-wide open, looks at my feet. She continues to look at them, and I curiously look down. My feet were surrounded by a weird blue fire. My first instinct is to jump in the water, but my feet held in place. The mysterious blue flame licked my unburnt feet. After a while, it finally vanished into thin air. "What was that?", Leona asked, her face full of concern. "Oh, haha. It was a trick, i used magic to make me go faster so that I can be the babysitter. You caught me!", I lied and chuckled nervously. I had no idea what my legs and feet did, but I can't risk seeing disappointment in my mothers eyes. "Oh! Haha, that wasn't a very good trick, but you have to teach me how to summon blue fire.", she smiled. She ran ahead, hesitantly, I followed, but my lips changed into a frown. Later, I would tell my mother what happened, but for now I must fulfill my duties.

"I can't explain what is going, you just have to follow me and trust me.", Dante said after rushing into the barn. Aphmau gave a quick nod and we all ran, following Dante. Son after, Dante brought us to the small deck near Aphmau's house. "Katelyn, I'm glad you made it!", Aphmau shrieked in thrill. Katelyn was standing in front of the entrance to the boat. "It's good to see you, Aphmau", Katelyn nodded and smiled but something told me was wrong. At the bottom of my heart, I felt this was gonna be horrible. "Oh, I've missed you so much. You have no idea!", Aphmau said and smiled. "I can imagine you feel the same as I do, but enough said I brought you a birthday gift for Alina.", Katelyn said, her face looked serious. "But why are we out here? The party is back at the barn", Aphmau said. "Because I need your help with this particular package.", Katelyn moved out of the entrance. And there stood a familiar figure, my eyes widened with fear. In a iron cage, stood Zane in shackles. "What the?!", Garroth words came out with confusion. "Surprise", Katelyn said. Her eyes laid on me and her face changed to horror. "Oh I forgot Jesse was here. I'm sorry. I didn't know you would be here.", Katelyn said, in a jumble of words. "Jesse, my fiancé that betrayed me.", He said and looked at me with eyes that could burn the devil himself. "Zane", I whisper and a tear goes down my cheek. Suddenly, my vision turns darker and before I know it I fall into a deep slumber that might determine my future. TO BE CONTINUED IN THE NEXT CHAPTER~ sorry it was short
