Chapter 9
TITO
The sun has set and the pack is getting ready for the full moon run. As I make my way down to the cottage, I notice that the lights are still out. Which is strange as Hennessy hates the dark and she should have arrived a while ago.
After the sht show with Skky I decided to lock her into the dungeon so that the pack can have a nice calming running without her crap. Sure, Skky tried everything trying to get me to change my mind and let her out something about how she will do better and that she will be nicer to Hennessy if I just took back the disowning. But the thing that Skky still hasn’t figured out is that no one in the family liked her nor did we like mom. We only tolerated them for Hennessy’s sake. The four of us made a pack when we all moved to our packs, hordes or coven’s that we wouldn’t have anything to do with them anymore. However, about a month later mom came back from her trip saying that she was pregnant, not wanting to have another sibling like Skky we vowed to help the new sibling as much as possible.
From the first moment that we touched mom’s stomach we were entranced by the new baby, there was excitement and we were all anxious for the baby to arrive. However, mom didn’t stop her slutty ways and unfortunately Hennessy was born a month early she was addicted to the potions that mom took and thankfully London’s coven stepped in and saved her which we were all thankful for. Mom wasn’t around and as soon as Skky would see Hennessy, she would say nasty words or do things that would put Hennessy in danger. So, from then on, we all vowed to protect Hennessy from mom and Skky.
When Hennessy turned one that was when things started getting worse. First Skky tried to kill her with poison and then it was taking her into forbidden territory when she would stay with the pack. When Hennessy was two and mom left her at a park in a not so nice part of the realm and while we could never prove it, we still believe she was hoping that Hennessy would disappear.
The worst came when Hennessy was four, actually it was just after her forth birthday and for some reason that I can’t remember now none of us could take her, which meant she had to stay with mom. Something that none of us were happy about, that was the day that mom was murdered and Hennessy was in the house when it happened. London was the one that raised the alarm when one of her coven members went to pick her up but no one was home. My brothers went around there a day later and what we walked into was a nightmare. We eventually found little Hennessy hiding under the floor covered in blood. When we pulled her out, she screamed so loud and so long that our eardrums burst but that was nothing to power that came from her when she was still scared.
Jameson was terrified Hennessy’s little body erupted into flames and if wasn’t for London’s split-second warning about holding her tight I am sure that Jameson would have dropped her. That was the first time that we all experienced and witnessed her power. We then spent every minute of the next eighteen years trying to find out exactly what Hennessy was. London had visions of Hennessy doing great things but for the great things to happen she needed to survive which was proving to be a little harder than we though. No one expect for mom and Skky to take such an instant dislike to her nor did we expect that they would try and kill her multiple times. With each “accident” that they deemed it they were progressively worse.
Approaching the front door and still no answer from Hennessy I opened the front door and walked in. I knew instantly that she wasn’t here, there was no heart beat no smell nothing. Pulling my phone from my pocket I instantly dialled London. Listening to the rings I prayed to the moon goddess that London would pick up the phone.
“Hi, you have reached London. I can’t answer the phone so do your thing” London’s voice recording said.
“Can’t find Hennessy, she should have been at the cabin by now. Find her now” Tito says
Hanging up I dialled Jameson. Listening to the ringtone I waited for him to pick up the phone.
“Jameson” then beeps. Chuckling and shaking my head I leave another message about Hennessy not arriving yet and to find her. Hanging up I call Tennessee. Once again, I am listening to the ringtone before I hear Tennessee’s voice.
“Yeah?” Tennessee says
“Hennessy hasn’t arrived” I state
“What the Hell she should have been there twenty minutes ago” Tennessee barks
“Well, she isn’t. She isn’t answering her phone either” I respond.
“Ok give me ten” Tennessee says
“Do you…” I say but doesn’t get to finish as Tennessee hangs up the phone. Growling and looking at the phone still clutched in his hand he calls his beta.
“Hey Beta, I need you to take a run and see if you can find Hennessy’s car, she hasn’t arrive yet” I mind link him its easier than using the energy for a phone.
"On it, Alpha" The beta responds
I walk around the cabin looking at it, noting that it needs some work. I make a mental note to get things fixed up before the next full moon. Before Hennessy is staying here again.
I am brought out of my musings when my phone starts ringing.
"What did you find?" I say
I hear Tennessee speaking at the same time Beta's voice comes through to my mind.
"Hennessy's car is crashed into a ditch but she isn't hear. There is a burntout car on the road and Hennessy's car in the ditch there is blood everywhere. The guys are maksing the blood now" Beta responds
"Hennessy is missing" Tennessee's voice come through at the same time as the Beta's words
Hennessy is missing!
