The boys trained harder than they ever had in their lives and they took it very seriously. We all wanted revenge but knew we couldnt just bust in there like a pack of rabid dogs. we had to be smart so we didnt risk another life. Roman tought us to control our inner animal better so we dont get angry and shift without any control. "An angry wolf, is a dead wolf." he said. There was already plenty of anger in my brothers eyes, mine as well. The pain that hit us all as Aiden died was unlike any we have ever felt in our entire lives. The absence of our brother was heavily felt everyday and every night. my brothers and I would even run late at night when we couldnt sleep and howl for our brother. Ethan suffered more than the rest of us. He had permanently lost his other half. He hasn't slept since the incident. I told Lydia about Aiden and she completely fell apart and agreed to give us the child, but she wasnt sure if she could be in its life. Dean and I agreed to raise the baby as one of our own.
The boys went out for a run while I stayed home and watched my sons play on the floor. Noah and Lucas have started their shifts way earlier than they should've. They would cry every night when it would start. The pain they were going through made me scared. There isn't much about baby werewolves except the fast growth rate and the high chance their small bodies couldnt take the change and kill theml. My kids suffered every night and it killed me knowing there was nothing I could do to stop it. Dean always gave me the same sympathetic look before sitting on the bed with his head in his hands. Some nights we would wake up to pups whining as their bones shifted around looking for their proper place. Dean and I weren't allowed to touch them because a bone could easily break. The growing was nothing but exceptional. They were only a few months but they looked 2.
Noah and Lucas looked over as my phone rang. It was Isaac.
Isaac: JJ some thing is wrong.
Jade: What are you talking about?
Isaac: Its Aiden!
I froze immediately at the mention of his name. I took a deep breath before responding.
Jade: Calm down and tell me what the hell is going on.
Isaac: ...Aiden's body is missing!
My eyes opened wide and my teeth clenched in anger. I grabbed the boys and buckled them in their car seats as fast and I could before speeding off.
When i arrived, the whole pack surrounded the grave i had made for my fallen brother. I walked up next to Dean and looked at the hole in the ground, body-less. "Something like us definitely dug him up." Roman said looking at the claw and finger marks in the dirt. Dean grabbed my hand and squeezed it knowing the fury burning inside me. I squeezed his hand back to refrain from crying and screaming. Aidens scent was still fresh in the dirt along with an unfamiliar someone else. "You mean to tell me some sick bastard stole my brothers body!" Ethan shouted. "Ethan calm down now." I said in a stern voice. Ethan exploded with a firey rage, "You dont tell me to calm down!" It was only a matter of seconds before my back slammed against a hard tree with Ethan's hands in a death grip around my throat. Instant panic hit me as i struggled to get away. I clawed his face in attempts to blind him before pushing him over and pinning him to the ground. "Enough!" I roared at him. In an instant his eyes began to water, so i got off of him and pulled him up into a hug. "It's ok. Just go back to the house I'll meet you there soon, we are gonna get this son of a bitch." I whispered before kissing his forehead. He walked off towards the house.
None of us recognized the smell of the mystery werewolf. While we sniffed around, Dean got a call on his phone that made his face turn pale when he hung up. "Dean?" I waved my hand in front of his face but his expression was blank. "Baby, what's wrong?" I asked shaking him. After a few moments of silence he finally spoke, "...They have Sami and AJ." he said quietly. His face became red and he crushed his cell phone in his hand like it was nothing. "Dean, I know you're mad but please calm down." I tried to calm him down but he only grew worse. "Dean," I grabbed his face and made him look at me, "Honey look at me, acting out of rage is gonna get us killed, we need to wait for the right time. We'll get them i promise."
The rest of the day was filled with intense silence. Dean held Lucas for some type of anchor on his rage. No matter how angry he was, it could never come close to over powering the love he had for his family. Noah was playing with Roman and Seth down stairs. When it was time for bed, the kids were fast asleep. Dean laid close to me and held me tighter than he ever has before, I knew he needed it so i didn't tell him he was crushing me. i held his hand close to my heart and fell fast asleep with him.
A cold breeze was rolling through the balcony door, I thought Dean closed the door but maybe not. Sat up and look towards the door and froze in shock. One of Mason's mutts stood next to the crib holding Noah. He turned around and laughed at the look of fear on my face. Dean must've heard him cause he sat up immediately. When he saw who the intruder was holding he leaped out of bed and reached for our son but the mutt stuck his claw out on his index finger and held it to our sleeping sons throat, " Ah, ah, ah, not so fast. You wouldnt want me to redecorate this lovely bedroom with your sons blood now would you?" the mutt said mockingly. "What do you want?" Dean asked through clenched teeth. Tears were already flowing down my cheeks in fear for my baby boy. "Consider this a...dinner invitation and your bouncing baby boy here is insurance, you try anything he dies." he said with a wide creepy grin. "You dont wanna keep your pack waiting." he said as he got up on the balcony railing. i instantly freaked out and reached for my baby sobbing. "Oh dont worry he'll be fine as long as you two are corporative." The mutt said with a sickening smile. "Get dressed, formal clothes only. We'll be outside." He laughed as he jumped off the balcony. I immediately ran to the balcony and looked down to see the ugly mutt holding my son. "Come on Jade i dont think we should keep him waiting." Dean said hurrying to pull clothes out of the closet and keep calm. I was so close to breaking down until Dean grabbed my face gently and kissed me, "We'll get him back, I promise." He said as he hugged me tightly. I nodded and we began getting dressed in our formal clothes.
We walked outside to see the mutt putting Noah in a limo. I carried Lucas to the car and put him in before sliding in followed by Dean. He instantly grabbed my hand squeezing it. He must've been so angry that he was starting to shift. I rubbed my thumb on his knuckle and looked in his eyes pleading him not to turn, "Dean please for our sons you cant shift not now." He clenched his teeth and nodded. The rest of the ride was dead silence. We pulled up to the large house that I was bitten in. I wanted my children but before I could grab them, two big mutts grabbed thw boys and carried them in. I held back the tears that threatened to spill and walked into the house hand in hand with Dean. We were escorted to a long dining table. Everything in the house looked gothic. There were dishes covered by shinny silver tops. We were shoved in our seats next to the rest of the pack. The smell in the air seemed like i had smelt it before but couldnt put my finger on it. Mason sat at the far end of the table in his usual spot. He looked me up and down and nodded in approval. His stare made me feel uncomfortable. Dean noticed this and grabbed my hand under the table and stroked his thumb over my knuckle. I took a deep breath and focused on Dean's touch rather than the king of mutts staring at me. The rest of the pack was at the table, the men looked angry and the women looked terrified. The mutts joined us at the large table with very cocky attitudes. There was something really fishy going on and i wasnt sure i wanted to find out what it is. "Glad you all could join us for dinner." Mason said with fake enthusiasm, "This was prepared specially for all of you." He stared at me with a smirk. "Eat." He said demandingly. I swallowed hard and looked at Dean. He looked just as unsure as i was. I reached for the silver cover and hesitantly and slowly pulled it up. The sight damn near made me faint. There on the platter was Aiden's head with cut off eye lids so his eyes stared directly at me and his tongue was severed and stuck hanging out his throat like a columbian neck tie. I couldn't take this anymore i was so deep in rage i didnt care who was around, i wanted Mason dead now.
