Chapter 22

Heather was sounded asleep on her stomach for the pass several days, She couldn't even sit.

Scott and Ryan were talking among each other.

"Did I over did it with Heather?"asked Ryan who was drinking some orange juice.

"It's not like our mate to walk away from us without telling where she was at"answered Scott.

"How dare you"answered an angry voice.

Scott and Ryan turned towards the voices.

Charlie and Bill Weasley were informed in what had happen with Heather.

"Alison might had agreed we share custody of Heather-because the two of you are her mates. But you made a huge mistake"answered Charlie.

"What are you talking about?"asked Scott.

"We know you spanked Heather a couple days ago, she had told us"answered Bill.

"We have the right to punish our mate, we had no idea where she was at"answered Ryan.

"You just lost that right as Heather's mates, she was with us at her mother's grave. It was the anniversary of her mother's birthday"answered Charlie.

Foot steps coming out of nowhere.

4 of them turned towards the person standing there.

"Heather"answered Ryan.

Heather takes a step back. "I'm revoking my rights as your mate, Charlie and Bill Weasley will be sharing custody of me since it was my mother's wish"answered Heather.

Scott kneels down in front of Heather. "Please! You can't leave us"begged Scott.

Alison comes walking into the room. "Scott and Ryan the two of you are grounded to the grounds of the estate in Los Angeles for 3 months with out any contact with Heather for the time being"answered Alison.

"Alison you can't do that to us"answered Ryan.

Ian, Jasper, Demitri and Harry came racing to the scene.

"I have the right to punish the two of you, get your facts straight"snapped Alison.

Harry stares at Ryan and Scott. "How could you do that? Heather would have told you"answered Harry.

"Fine"answered Ryan leaving the mansion in Volterra, Italy.

Scott looks at Heather-in the safety of Harry arms, leaves the room.

2 days later

Alison was currently relaxing in the hot springs-private bathing area.

(Flashback)

Ian had whispered to Alison she wasn't a burden to him every night.

Loved taking care of her.

Alison was sounded asleep on the floor through-she had another nightmare.

Didn't even hear Christian, Max and Shawn come home early from patrolling the property.

Ian was out doing an errand so he wasn't home to begin with.

Alexis had fallen asleep in Max bed, hugging a pillow.

Usually when Ian isn't home, Christian and Shawn check on Alison.

When they found Alison it wasn't a pretty sight.

Her bedroom was shredded to pieces.

"I will alert Ian in what happen, Alison had another nightmare"answered Christian.

Christian knows about Alison's sleep walking nights.

"What should we do?"asked Shawn.

Christian texts Ian-to informed him in what had happen.

Just gotten a text message from Ian.

"Ian just text me-he won't be back until later tonight, just put Alison in his bedroom for now"answered Christian.

6 hrs later

Alison felt a hand gently rubbing her back a little bit.

Christian and Shawn had went out fix Alison's shredded pillows.

Ian had arrived 15 minutes after.

"The only thing that was shredded were her pillows"answered Shawn.

"Thanks"answered Ian saying good night to Shawn and Christian.

Alison was still sounded asleep on top of the bed covers.

Ian put the bag down on the couch in his master bedroom.

Went to the bathroom to change into his night clothes.

Slowly makes his way towards the bed.

Rubbing Alison back.

Alison opens her eyes sightly-stares at Ian.

"Alison, what happen?"whispered Ian.

"I had another nightmare, you weren't here"whispered Alison.

"I'm sorry"answered Ian.

Alison moves away from Ian-she was awake now. "I'm a burden to you Ian. Burden to the Elite Guardians"answered Alison.

Ian scoops Alison in his arms, rubbing her back a little bit. "Your not a burden, can't help what you made. Sorry that Holly left you-but have others here to help out"answered Ian.

"My father didn't even know about me to begin with. Why do you think he would want me?"answered Alison.

"Did Holly ever tell you who your birth father is?"asked Ian.

"Yes! My biological father is major Jasper Whitlock Hale-he's a vampire"answered Alison.
