CHAPTER FIVE
PART ONE
CHILDREN OF THE PROPHECY
"Yes son, it is a little embarrassing to you kids, but it must be said, you must understand the importance of all of this, your uncle and your name sake B.J. died to make this prophecy come to pass, so you must all hear this.
"Hear what daddy?" Ashley asked.
"You will see princess," I told her as B.J. rolled his eyes and Hayden patted his hand.
I think I will start with the prophecy, "I said as I looked to Tatika."Will you do the honor of explaining the prophecy sir?" I asked him.
"Sure," he said as he began. "The prophecy starts with you mother, Lynn," he said as the kids looked at her."She was very important to the prophecy, but she was hidden away as a child, only to be found years later by your Uncle and your fathers brother Billy Black, and you B.J. are name after him as well as your father, as he patted B.J.'s knee. He brought your mother home to the tribe," I walked over and sat next to Lynn as Tatika explained.
"Billy had imprinted on her," Lynn lowered her head in remembering Billy; I kissed the top of her head and wrapped my arms around her holding her close. She looked at me and smiled, as a tear fell down her check.
"Imprinting?" Hayden asked, confused, Tatika stopped and looked at me. I looked around the room.
"Everyone in the room is an imprint or has imprinted, it doesn't mean it happens to everyone, but it will be very instrumental to the pack for awhile," I told them, looking over at Paul.
"You got that right," Paul said sarcastically, then smiled.
"But what is it?" Hayden asked, still confused. I looked over at Paul again; I needed his approval to tell her. He nodded his head for me to continue.
"Imprinting is what B.J. did to you, What Seth did to Ashley, what your dad did to your mother, and what I did with Lynn," I told her as I kissed Lynn's hand and Paul did the same to LeAnn.
"You mean we all fell in love," Ashley answered. I smiled at her.
"Yes princess, but it's more powerful than that," I told her, I stood up and walked around touching them as I explained.
"It's like when you see her or him, everything changes, it's not gravity holding you to the planet, it's her or him, nothing else matters, you would do anything, be anything for her or him, it's like a million tiny strings of thread made of steel binding you together, there's nothing that can break those threads, well almost nothing, you kids have felt this bond since you were very young, it is a way of life to you, but if one of you get to far away from one another, you will be in pain mentally and physically, the heartbreak would be unbearable, this only happens in the pack, or in the line of Chief, you children are chosen, that is why it happened to you so young. It doesn't happen to us until we are older about you age now; there is some rare occasion when it happens when it happens to younger kids, but not very often.
"That is so romantic daddy," Ashley said. I smiled at her.
"But where there is good, there is also bad, this too has it's bad side, you my children are from the Chief's line, there are differences with us, although, you will not go through this, it may happen in your life time, if there are two male's in the line, they can both imprint on the same woman. It is very rare and has only happened twice that I know of in a hundred years. Your Uncle Billy and I have done this, and it is a good thing we did or your mother wouldn't be here today, or either of you," I told them as I looked at both of them.
They looked confused."I don't understand dad," B.J. said. I sighed hating to tell them this part.
"It is important that you take care of yourselves, When your Uncle Billy died, it devastated your mother. She was his imprint. An imprint cannot live without its mate. The bond is so strong that it pulls still after death, it pulls until the mate joins him or her in death," I told them as I sat down with Lynn again and pulled her close to me, remembering that I almost lost her.
"I remember that day, it was the most heartbreaking day of my life, seeing your mother after Billy's death," Paul told them, then shivered in the thought, LeAnn touched his hand, as he looked at her and smiled.
"But, she's still alive," B.J. said to Paul.
"Only because of your father," Paul continued. "Your father also imprinted on your mother. Line of the Chief remember?" Paul said, as B.J. nodded.
"Only he could save her," Paul said.
"How did you save mom dad?" Ashley asked.
I looked at Lynn, she smiled and touched my cheek and I was relieved, I knew she loved Billy and still to this day thought of him a lot, when someone would be talking about the past, or bring out pictures, she would see one of him and excuse herself, I would go to find her and she would be brushing away a tear, where she was reminded of him. I never became jealous of this, I knew she loved him and I also knew she loved me as much as she did him, actually it helped me in a way, I had no one else to who felt the same way I did about my brother, I missed him and it bother me as well, so we shared that bond of love for my brother. Yes it was a different kind of love but it was unconditional, and we both felt that towards him.
"Let me baby," she said as she looked at the children and continued.
"I loved your Uncle Billy, he was my husband and I was his imprint, I also loved your father, and I was his imprint as well, there wasn't anything anyone could do about it, it just was what it was, they were both my soul mate, we belonged together, but I was married to your Uncle Billy, and I keep a safe distance from your father, Billy knew, I loved Jacob, they both knew how strong the imprinting could be, so we all dealt with it. Your father went through a lot of pain back then," she touched my face and looked me in the eyes, as I smiled at her."I hated how much pain I caused him, but there wasn't anything anyone of us could do about it. Your Uncle Billy was very sick, he was dying," she said as her voice cracked. I hugged her to me.
"He never told me because he knew what pain awaited me after his death, imprinting is that powerful, we made love the night of his death, the next morning I awoke and he was gone. Your father had talked to Billy the day before, he told him that he must save me, that he had to break the bond between Billy and myself." I told them.
"I thought you couldn't break the bond?" B.J. asked.
"In the pack that is true, but Billy and your dad is in the line of the Chief and they are brothers, two males in the line remember?" I told them, as he shook his head.
"There is only one way to break the bond on a imprint, first you have to be in the line of the Chief, second, two males in that line, third…is you have to make love to the brother of the deceased, the one who imprinted on you as well. In my case it was Jacob, your father. Billy knew this and told your father he had to do this, to save my life, your father love me as much as Billy did, but Billy was his brother he still loved him, it had to be hard for your father to do this but he had no choice, he had to save my life, so we made love the night after Billy died. Two things happened that night, your father saved me and we bonded closer, although I still grieved for my husband, I was drawn closer to your father, and we became what we are now," I told them, and she squeezed my hand.
"So making love can break the imprinting bond?" B.J. asked.
"Only in the line of the Chief and if you have a brother that imprinted on your imprint," I laughed.
So you literally saved moms live," B.J. said."Yes son," I told him.
"Go dad," Ashley cheered, as I chuckled.
"What about us?" Hayden asked a little frightened.
"You will be my son's wife, which puts you in the house of the Chief," I told her.
"But what about mom and dad? there not in the house of the Chief, what if one of them die, god forbid I hope that doesn't happen," she asked a little upset.
I looked over at Paul to take over."Honey, if anything ever happens to your mother, I couldn't live without her, I would be in so much pain, with her loss I couldn't bare it, would you want me to suffer that bad sweetheart?" Paul asked his daughter.
"But you are my father, it would cause me great pain to lose you both," she said.
"I know honey, the pain would be a hundred times great for me than it would for you, you would heal, where I would not," Paul told her.
"I don't think I like this imprinting stuff," she said. We all laughed.
"I don't like it much either honey," Paul said chuckling.
"We all don't like this imprinting stuff either sweetheart, but it is what it is, there's nothing to be done about it so we live with it. I told her.
"If imprinting is so rare why are there so many imprinting now?" Ashley asked.
"That is part of the prophecy sweetie, I will finish so you will understand," Tatika told her.
"As your father has explained, that he imprinted on your mother shortly after her return to the tribe, the prophecy says that the female will carry the seed of both brothers, the seed will impregnate the said female," Tatika said.
"So the female is mom, right?" B.J. said.
"Yes son," I told him."I don't understand," B.J. said, confused.
"The night Billy died, he made love to your mom, the next night I made love to her, both seeds were planted," I told him.
B.J. stood up, he swallowed hard, his eyes got as large as saucers, he started hyperventilating, "What are you saying dad?" he said as he started shaking, I jumped up and made it over to him, placing my hand on his shoulder, and tried to calm him down.
"Calm down son, it's okay," I was afraid he phase before we could finish telling him what was going on."I am you father son, please calm down, we will explain all this too you, it will all come together as we go along, please," I told him.
Hayden pulled him down and placed her hand on the side of his face, he leaned into her touch and he immediately calmed down. I looked over at Lynn as we smiled at each other, noticing how B.J. reacted to her touch.
I stooped down in front of B.J.
"I am your father, but Billy is also, it is part of the prophecy, and you will see why when your grandfather finishes," I told him. He just looked at me.
"Your mother has great powers and your fathers do," he said as the kids looked around at all of us in disbelief, and I chuckled."As Seth does," Tatika said smiling at Ashley, and she looked over at Seth and he smiled at her.
"What kind of powers?" Ashley asked, still looking at Seth.
"Tell her Seth," Tatika told him. Seth looked at me and I nodded my head to tell him to go ahead.
"Um… we are, well the pack are protectors of the people," Seth said.
"Like the police?" Ashley asked.
"Sort of but we protect the people from something else," he said.
"What's that?" she asked again. Seth looked at me again, I shook my head as to tell him to go on.
