Chapter 971 Reinforcements (2)

One after another group of people teleported, revealing determined expressions of Cristian, Maddox, Tatiana, Pierce, Darla, Caleb, Mindy, Gideon, Varya, Grady, and several other high-ranking warriors from four allied packs.

Talia turned to look at Damon, and she squeezed his hand excitedly. The feeling of camaraderie filled her heart to the brim. 'Our friends are here,' Talia said to Damon through their mind link. Tatiana, Kalina, Lidia, Daria, and Varya quickly gathered and formed a circle. Tatiana started singing, and her sisters joined her. It started low, but then their vocals picked up to twinkle and swirl, creating an ethereal tune that resonated with nature. Talia's eyes widened when she realized that energies were revolving around five Wilkow sisters and then spreading to their allies. Talia could feel it like a breeze that carried vitality. It was fantastic! "It is something that runs in their family," Tony said from the side for everyone to hear.

Talia knew that the Wilkow family lived among humans, as loners, without a pack, yet their wolves didn't turn feral. That made them special, and this magical tune added to it. Talia took a mental note to talk to Kalina and Tanya about it later.

Whatever boost they were getting, Talia was welcoming it. "Where are my daughter and grandkids I?" An angry voice was heard, and Talia turned that way to see the latest batch of newcomers.

Evanora was walking toward Damon and Talia with her two helpers from the Silver Flame Coven, Serena and Freya.

"Are these the bastards who dared to touch my bloodline?" Evanora was fuming.

"Yes," Talia responded. "But take it easy. We still don't know where Yasmin and the kids are, so we can't kill them."

Evanora's face was arranged in a deep frown. "We can cause them pain."

"We all want that," Talia said, and she wished that Evanora had a mind link so they could exchange information without the Guardians overhearing them. "Now that you are here, I have no fear they will be unpunished. Let's take our time to find out as much as we can, and we can punish them based on the severity of their crimes." Talia pointed at Declyn. "That one claims neutrality, but we shouldn't turn our backs to him."

Evanora regarded Talia for a long moment, and then she responded with a nod. Talia took that as Evanora's agreement to subdue her thirst for blood.

More allies were a good thing, but it would be troublesome if people acted on their impulses.

Evanora noticed that Serena and Freya were curiously observing the Wilkow sisters and their ritual, and she did the same.

Talia was happy that Evanora didn't go nuclear. She wondered how the old witch would react once she found out that the Guardians were probably involved in gruesome experiments that included people with abilities.

Axel arrived with the next group. 'Sorry we are late, Axel spoke to Talia through their mind link. 'We would come earlier, but three witches found their mates as we reached the Dark Howlers pack, and it caused slight delays. Evanora brought fifty-seven witches from the Silver Flame Coven. Other than the three newly mated witches, James distributed most of them to help with teleportation and as reinforcements to our warriors and allies. Evanora insisted on coming here.'

'You are not late,' Talia responded, happy that three witches had found their mates. There was love no matter the hardships.

Talia glanced at five Guardians, who now got closer to Gregory, obviously confused by this development.

Talia turned to address the newcomers "Thank you for coming!" She gestured toward Gregory and his five helpers. "Creatures that call themselves Guardians captured my mate with the intention of breaking us apart. In order to lure me here, they also kidnapped Yasmin and her two babies. They are using other Alphas and rogues to attack our packs and cause disruption. I believe that Yasmin is there.. Talia gestured toward the castle that was peeking above tree canopies behind Gregory. "But until we confirm their location, we shouldn't kill them. Each of them has abilities. Those five are standing in our way, and there might be more. I ask you to help us defeat them so we can rescue hostages and ensure that women don't need to fear they will be kidnapped and used for the greed of the Guardians!"

The Guardians were furious to hear Talia talk about them like they were not there. But they didn't miss the oddity of the Wilkow sisters, and there was something in Evanora that made them cautious. Also, in addition to Talia and Damon, there were nearly thirty more people, most of them werewolves. "Those are some big words," Gregory sneered. "Do you think you can deliver on them?" "It's the shitface!" Keith exclaimed as he recognized Gregory from the incident at the Blue River pack So far, Keith was focused on Talia and Arya, and only now he took a better look at their opponents. Gregory felt like he was about to faint from anger. "How did you call me? "Shitface!" Keith doubled down. "You heal well, old man. I need to rearrange your features again!" Gregory's expression stiffened as he remembered Keith overpowering him with ease. Arya looked at Keith apprehensively. He was energetic and full of fighting spirit, and she felt neglected. "Arya," Keith called. "Let's teach this old man a lesson together. He dared to covet our Luna." Arya liked that Keith included her. This was her chance to show that she could be useful and loyal to Talia. Maddox walked to Damon and Talia.

"I hear you got kidnapped," Maddox said and glanced at Gregory and five other Guardians. "If I knew it's just this much, I wouldn't come. Even my pregnant mate insisted on coming because we thought you were dying."

"Thank you for coming to my rescue," Damon responded dryly. He knew that Maddox would harp about this for years to come.

"Anytime you are ready, we can take care of them and then go home," Cristian said from the side.

Damon made a face. "Don't get too cocky. They are the Guardians. Remember the ones that can suppress Alpha aura? Last time your aura didn't work, you got beat by a Lieutenant." Cristian's face stiffened. Talia couldn't believe this. Was this the time for petty quarrels? Men and their egos. Everything was a competition! Talia spoke to Gregory. "What you did is inexcusable. However, if you release Yasmin and her kids unharmed, we will consider leaving you with your lives."

Gregory didn't think that these thirty-something people were dangerous. Even without his ability, Gregory's physique put him above an average werewolf.

The only one that worried him was Damon. However, Gregory suspected something was off with Damon. Why was he not attacking? Was that troublesome ability a one-time thing? That was a possibility. Without his ability, Damon was not an obstacle, and neither was any other person from the people gathered.

The only thing Gregory wanted to avoid was harming Talia. But then he noticed several other females that caught his attention. There were Wilkow sisters and some other females that were not she-wolves, but he could feel they were not humans.. Now that he thought about it, why not capture all of them?
