Chapter 194 194
"Ok, tell me how you got there?" I asked.
"Seriously?" She asked.
"Honesty I'm trying to help you," I said.
"We all met this guy Calvin at the bar."
Calvin growled I hoped they did not hear it. I was pretty sure they were humans.
"Go on, he brought us, not at the same time of course, to his penthouse he offered us good money for our services, when he was done with us he locked us in here. He would come and take one of us out when he wanted to have our service. He started beating us. Then he never came back." She told me.
"You will be out of there today. I'm calling the police to get you out. Are you in a basement?" I asked.
"Yah, you really going to get us out of here. Yes and the guy lied to you his name was not Calvin. It was Eric. Sit tight they will be there soon" I said Cut it. I linked Deisel. He shut down the monitors. I went out of the pack house and called Ted.
"Ted, go to Eric's penthouse look in the basement he has four street walkers locked up. We just found surveillance monitors in his old office." I said.
"Sending in a team right away, we will take care of it." Ted said and hung up. Then went back upstairs.
"Deisel get rid of all this stuff." I ordered then went out in the hall.
"You ok Lilly?" I asked.
"Yah, I will be fine. Thank you for helping them." She said.
"Not a problem you will have to send me pictures of your office when it is done." I told her giving her a hug.
"Calvin, how is Ella?" I asked.
"She is doing a lot better. She is busy with our mothers getting things ready for the mating ceremony." He said.
"Couple more days old man, you will be marked and mated and very happy." I said.
"I'm happy now, what do you mean by very happy?" He asked.
"Because I will be out of your hair, for another ten years." I told him.
"Hope it will not be ten years, that is to long," Calvin said.
ELLA'S POV
I woke up to someone knocking on my door.
"Who is it?" I asked putting the pillow over my head.
"Ella, it is Celestia open the door. I have our breakfast." She said. I threw the pillow to the end of the bed and went to open the door.
"Why are you here so early?" I asked dropping back down on the bed.
"You have another bad night?" Celestia asked.
"I'm fine, what time is it?" I asked.
"You look like crap," Lilly said coming into the room and it is one in the afternoon.
"That late?" I asked.
"Ella you have huge dark circles under your eyes. Have you been drinking the herbal tea before bed?" Lilly asked. Celestia handed me a cup of coffee.
"No, I hate the taste of it." I confessed.
"Do you remember what today is?" Lilly asked.
"A day your not going to let me sleep, obviously," I said sarcastically.
"I will put you in a cold shower Ella, it is your mating ceremony day," Lilly said.
"Will you stop that is tomorrow, right?" I asked looking at her then at Celestia who both had worried looks on their faces.
"I will be right back,” Lilly said and left the room. Celestia just stood there looking at me.
"Ella, I know your having a hard time dealing with everything, I just want you to know I'm here for you." She said.
"I know, I don't know why it bothers me so much at night." I told her. The door opened and Lilly came back with Bethany.
"Oh, my word child. Clare did give you herbal tea?" She asked.
"Yes, I have not been making it." I told her.
"Go get in the shower, I will make you a tea and you will drink it. " Bethany said. I went and showered taking extra care with my hair I wanted to wear it down for our ceremony. How could I forget today was our mating ceremony. I sat down on the floor and cried.
I heard the door open but did not look to see who it was.
"Ella, are you on the floor?" Raven asked. I jumped up and wrapped my arms around her crying on her shoulder.
"Why did you not come down to me or ask for me to come up," she asked.
"You're busy with three pups, I didn't want to bother you." I told her. Raven moved me so I was standing in front of her, and she put her hands on my face, touching it softly then she covered both my eyes with her hands.
"Just stand still, my hands are going to start to feel very cold but don't move I'm making your eyes better. After about two minutes she took her hands away my eyes felt refreshed when I looked in the mirror they were not swollen and there were no black circles.
"Thank you, but how?" I asked.
"Not everyone knows all the powers I have." Was all she said. Raven kissed my forehead and called for Vaken.
"Drink your tea!" She said before she left.
I put on my house coat and came out of the bathroom. Bethany handed me a cup of tea.
"I put a bit of honey in it." She said. You need to drink that every night before bed. I will see you later Luna." She said as she left. I sat down and drank my tea it did taste better with honey in it. Soon I was relaxed and calm. Unlike Shadow who was going on about how we would complete the mate bond tonight with Ace. Lilly looked at my eye with a questioning look.
"Ask Raven," I said.
"Never mind that explains it," Lilly said.
"Are you sure you want to wear your hair down, not have some of it up?" Celestia asked. I gave in and let her pull the side back and add a bit more curl to my already wavy hair. I was happy I did it looked amazing.
Lilly and Celestia were going to stand up with me. But I felt like someone was missing. There was a knock on the door and in came Raven's mother. She walked over to me and kissed both my cheeks. Will I do as a replacement she asked. How did she even know. Tears fell from my eyes as I nodded my head. She pulled me close I had always wanted more children." She said smiling.
"Now, dry those tears, so Lilly can put on your make up. Here I have something for you." She handed me a small rectangular box. I opened it, inside was a diamond pendent with tear drop diamond earrings. They were supposed to go to Raven on her mating ceremony. But she told me it was ok to give them to you. They were my mothers and her mothers before that." She told me.
