Chapter 181 181
"What I saw down there is horrible, I want clothes for all the men, women and children you make it happen now. I'm not sure what exactly Raven has in mind, but I will not tolerate any more of this. I'm sure mother has no idea about any of this." I said to Calvin.
"Lilly,....." no don't even give me any excuses Raven and I will come up with a solution, and you will do what we tell you to do." I said angrily. Calvin went to have clothes brought.
Raven and I stood there waiting.
"What do you have in mind, my love?" Titan asked Raven.
"Clear some land build house and move the human population up here they have curfews. But they can become working members of the pack. There is no other choice. I will not let you dispose of them like they are people not some rabid animal." Raven told him.
"So now we have to start paying them?" Calvin asked. I looked at him my eye turning violet.
"Yes, brother. If they can not leave and they become working members of the pack you will pay them. You should have never locked any of them up like you did." I screamed at him.
"What was I suppose to do just let them go?" He asked me.
"Yes!" Was all I said.
"It is time, guards bring those boxes and follow me Titan have a tumbler of ice water send down for me please." Raven said.
"When will you be back up?" Titan asked.
"When this is resolved, I suggest the two of you start looking where you can put their compound." Raven said. Then took Valens arm and we headed back down to speak with the humans. When we went back down the guards had better lighting for us. We went into the room. To our surprise there was a table now set up with chairs, an oil lamp was on the table. There were cups and tea and coffee pots.
"We kept the comfortable chair for Ms. Raven to sit in, Tim will not be joining us." Rascal told me. Valen helped Raven sit. I then stood waiting for them to sit once they did, I sat down.
"In these bags are clothes for who ever they will fit. Those who can't find anything to fit we will get their sizes and have clothes sent down." I explained. I noticed the older women handed out the clothes to the younger adults and children before taking anything for themselves. One of the guards came in and gave Valen Ravens water tumbler. Valen gently took her hand and touched it to the tumbler.
"Thank you Valen." Raven said.
"I'm going tell you what Lilly and I have in mind. This will not happen overnight, but it will happen. The first thing that will happen is a fence will be put up in front of the building you will be able to go outside until nine pm. Then you must stay here until the door opens at six am. We will ensure there are toys for the children to play with as well as tables and chairs for you to sit outside, not everyone will be able to go out at the same time so you will need to decide who can at what time. There will be guards posted around the fence so trying to escape will get you only put in the real dungeon." Raven said.
"That sounds reasonable. But what is the long-term plan." Carry asked.
"We will build you homes to live in. You will be permitted to get paying jobs in the community. Anyone trying to escape will be killed. “I told them.
"So we are still prisoners?" Wayne said.
"We are hoping we all can work together and be able to live together. You will follow the same rules as the pack does, and yes I said pack. It is what we are." I said.
"So, your really werewolves?" Carry asked.
"Yes, but we are not your idea of what w werewolf is. We laugh at your movies of us. We are as human as you are. We cut we bleed. You will see when you start coming up and outside." I told them.
"What other choice do we have?" Rascal asked. I looked at Raven she became very serious.
"We will take all the children to the orphanages in the city. Then lock and seal the doors. When you have all died we will bury your ashes together in an unmarked grave outside the pack lands." Raven said her eye deep purple and her wolf Spirit coming forward.
"Raven, calm yourself, please," Valen said as he knelt down to her level.
"Those are your options, Lilly we need to go." Raven said. Something was wrong but I did not know what.
"You have four hours to give us your decision. Doctors and nurses come now. Valen take Raven out, guards lock and seal the doors. Four hours I will be waiting for you decision. If I do not hear from you we will come and take the children." I said firmly then walked out. Hearing the door lock. I ran to catch up with Raven. When we got outside she went right to Titan.
"It is time mate to greet our new pups." She told him.
"How long have you been in labor?" Titan asked. Raven smiled since breakfast.
Titan picked her up and ran to the pack hospital with her.
"Why did he not put her in the car?" Calvin asked. I shurgged my shoulders.
"Who knows come on let's go get everyone." I said.
HAWKIN'S POV
We just had breakfast and the ladies were in the kitchen baking. I dialed Titan number but all it did was ring. Clare had given me Raven's number I hoped she would answer. But I got the same thing it went to the answering machine. They must be dealing with pack issues. It was now three in the afternoon I tried Titan's number again.
"Hello, who is this?" He said answering the phone.
"Alpha Titan, this is Hawkins, I have some great news for you and Raven. I told him.
"I doubt that what do you want Hawkins?" He asked annoyed.
"Clare and I took the children to the carnival and market last night...." he cut me off.
"That is nice Hawkins, I don't really have time for your tales about your family outings." He said in a low growl.
"Sorry, I will get right to the point, we found Raven's mother. She is here at my home baking with Clare right now." I told him. There was silence on the other end had we got disconnected.
"Titan?" I asked.
"Who is this? I'm Alpha Calvin what did you just tell Titan?" He asked.
"Hello, Alpha Calvin, I told him my mate, and I found Raven's mother she is here with us. I would like to make arrangements to get her to Raven as soon as we can. She is very anxious to see her daughter," I told him.
"You, found her? you're not playing some sick joke?" He asked.
