Aria woke up early to wake the kids up,she got them dressed and her husband helped her in the kitchen. They had their break fast and embark on their journey.
The family finally arrived at their destination after one hour drive.The kids got down from the car in excitement and called out their grandparents.
Grandpa Santis,grandma Santis ,we are here....they shouted out in ecstacy as they run toward the door . But the old couple are suprise by the sudden visit of Leonardo and his family.
Grandpa Santis
Cosa c é che non va ,perche la visita improvissa(what is wrong,why the sudden visit)
Nothing is wrong father in-law,the kids are here to spend their holiday ... Aria said
Grandpa Santis look at his son and gave him a questioning look,but Leonardo just stare back at his dad and nodded.
Vieni qui miei Bambini ,mi mannchi e sei crescuito in altezza Riccardo ..... grandma Santis said and Riccardo smiled .
(Come here my babies ,I miss you and you have grown taller Riccardo..... grandma Santis said while checking her grand kids out
Take their luggages to their rooms..... grandpa Santis said .
Ok father in-law.....aria replied and take the luggages away.
Follow me kids,the journey must have been stressful,let me get you something to drink to quench your thirst first... grandma Santis said as she lead the kids to the kitchen.
Come with me ... grandpa Santis said and leave with Leonardo.
What's going on,this visit of yours is so sudden ,you would have call us before to tell us if something was not wrong ,but now you just show up without even informing us ...grandpa Santis asked Leonardo in a serious tone.
I think rumours has gotten out about the secret weapon,that is why there are rogues every where attacking some parks and I got a call from beta ricci last night and he told me to prepare for war,because the rogues are coming for our park and we don't know when they will attack,so I have to bring the kids here to make sure they are safe.... Leonardo explained to his father.
When are you going back ..... grandpa Santis asked
We will be going back after my wife is done helping the kids settle in .... Leonardo answered
Please son be careful out there,if you need any help just give me a call and I'll be there ....grandpa Santis said
Don't worry dad,just take care of yourself and the kids for me....Leonardo said .
Yes I will my son ,please be careful okay ,I love you son.
After a while Aria came to knock the study room door to inform her husband that she is done helping the kids unpacking.
We be there soon ... Leonardo said to his wife .
Grandpa Santis and Leonardo came out after ending their conversation .
Where are the kids ..... Leonardo ask his wife
We are here dad ....the kids answered behind him.
Ok kids ,we are taking our leave ,don't stress your grandparents and Riccardo remember what I told you ,okay .
Okay dad .... Riccardo replied.
Leonardo gave his mom a tight hug and a peck on her check ,aria did the same thing .
They hug their kids and take their leaves . The kids wave at them if though they were out of sight ,they were having a feeling like that is the last time they will be seeing their parents.
Will dad and mom come and take us when our holiday is finished... Lavinia asked grandpa Santis while she stares at him with her beautiful eyes ball.
Yes darling,your parent will come back to fetch you after your holiday is through..... grandpa Santis said and carried Lavinia.
Yey yey ..... Lavinia said excitedly.
Oh Lavinia don't want to stay with grandpa anymore ..... grandpa Santis said and start tickling her .
No grandpa I want to stay with you .....she said in between her laugh .
Grandpa Santis didn't stop and he start chasing all of the kids around the house and the sound of laughter filled the house.
*Back to the Mancini *
Knock knock !!
Who is there...the alpha asked
Beta George is here to see you .....the guard standing at the door said .
The beta walked in and showed his respect by bowing his head.
Any news about the other parks ....,alpha Marco asked
The rogue have attacked the wolf's den park,lunar light park and are now set to attack the moonlit glen park .
Have you contact their alpha and ask him if he knows what is about to happen to his park.
Yes I did and he said they are already prepared for what to come .
What about the weapon..
He said it safe ,but I think there is a little problem alpha
Which is ....the alpha said getting a little bit irritated
Rumors about the weapon as already gotten out and everyone is trying to get their hands on it ,and that is the reason why the rogues are attacking all the park.
How did rumour about the weapon get out ,I thought only I ,you and the moonlit glen alpha and the de Santis knows about it so how did rumors get out .
Well I think there is a mole in the moonlit glen park.
Contact the alpha and tell him I said that he should give me the weapon now
Ok alpha .
And I need you to tighten the guards guiding the park and have more wolf join the park's guard. Announce to the park that I,their alpha said werewolves under the age 18 and above should start training to join the guards.
Ok alpha ,I will start working on it .....beta George replied
You are excused....alpha Marco said
After a while ,one of the guards came in and announce the arrival of Luna giada .
Tell her to come in ...he responded
Greetings to you my alpha ....Luna giada said as she bow her head .
Yes my Luna what is the matter.
I'm here to discuss the banquet that we are going to hold on the full moon with you alpha.
Well I don't think the banquet will hold this year Luna .
Why my alpha ....she asked respectively.
The rogues as been attacking other parks, holding a banquet now will make us look like we don't care for them and also we can't have a banquet because the rogues might take that opportunity to attack us .
Ok alpha I will announce to the park that there will not be any banquet this year.
Tell them it the alpha's command.
Ok alpha.
Is that all .....he asked
Yes alpha.
Alright then you are excused,see you at home .
Ok alpha bye....she showed her respect and left
The alpha and his family are seen having their dinner in silence, only the sound of forks and knife could be heard .
Luca sat farther away from his father ,he couldn't look up from his food because he was scared of his father .
Alpha Marco finish his food and left the table with out saying any word to his son.
Come here son ...his mother said
Thank you for the food mother .....Luca said
You welcome son ,hope you had enough food,or do you want more.
No mom ,I'm satisfied.
Ok son .Oh right ,are you still feeling anything in your body .
Yes mom ,the feeling keep getting worse.
Don't worry son you will be fine ,now go to your room .
Ok mom , goodnight mom love you .
Love you too my son ...she said as she hug him.
After making sure her son as gone to his room ,she went to her room too.
Marco we need to talk ....she said standing in front of her mate.
About what .
Your son .
Not again giada ,we already talked about this few days ago.
I know but you're still not changing,can't you see how much that little boy love you,how he needs your attention ,you came home today and you didn't even say a word to him ,he is your son Marco ,even if you don't like him don't let him know, because he still young. You could have at least ask about how his day was or something,but you just ate your food and said nothing to him.
Enough,have I not made myself clear that Luca is not my son ,I don't have a monster as a son .
I think you exaggerating Marco,there is nothing monstrous about my son ,or does having a different eyes colour make you a monster now ....giada asked her mate.
If that doesn't make you a monster then what does. Can you show any one else in this park that has different eyes colour except your son giada .
And that is what make him special Marco...giada said trying to make her husband see what she is seeing in her son.
No giada that is what make him a monster,do you think the park members don't talk about him having different eyes colour,they do but they couldn't say anything because they know he is my son .
Well what do you think the park will do when they find out you are not a good father to your son ,do you think they will still want you as their alpha....giada questioned her husband out of anger.
Don't you ever dare talk to me like that again ....Marco said in his alpha voice .
I'm your alpha and you must know how you talk to me .Do you understand
Yes alpha ,I'm sorry...giada apologise and bow her head .
Good ,this is the end of this conversation....he said and lie down and sleep.
Meanwhile
Luca summon his courage to say a goodnight to his father ,but stop in his track when he heard what his father said about him ,a lone tears escape his eyes as he turn around and leave.
Getting to his room,the little boy scream in frustration into his pillow.
Why is it that everyone hate me,my father also despise me ,why ,what must I do to get rid of this eyes,so that my father can accept me as his son.
He was still crying his heart out when he suddenly feel like he is burning,he thought it was because his window is closed ,he went to open his window,but the burning didn't stop, instead it was getting worse .
He tried to get up and feel the breeze to calm him down,but it is not helping him .
He start to feel like tearing his skin ,he tried to call for help but his voice is not coming out .
He tried to crawl to the door ,but stop when the pain was becoming unbearable,he could only lie down and bear the pain .
His eyelid was now getting heavy,he tried to keep his eyes open,but couldn't.
After a while of struggling,he couldn't keep his eyes open he give up and slide into total darkness.
