Seventy-Three: Hidden Secrets

Poseidon

One would think that a god could get nervous, but that is exactly how I am feeling right now. I am sitting

in a room with three of my siblings, five of my nieces, one nephew, the King and Queen of the fae, two

werebears, and many werewolves. Not to mention my two daughters, whom I have managed till now to

keep hidden and safe. Those damn rogues just had to grow some balls and attack the packhouse. I

looked around, and Mykenzie and Kylani glared at me, and I sighed. I might as well come clean.

“Nyalia didn’t fall in love with a human. She fell in love with me. She told her father that because we

both knew that he would have never agreed to her being with me. He got along with us and we had an Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

alliance mainly due to Mykenzie and Kylani having his bloodline in them. So she told him she had fallen

in love with a human. When I met him she had placed a cloaking spell over me to disguise me as a

human. It helps that as gods we don’t have a scent. We were happy. Things were going well for years.

Then Nyalia found out she was pregnant with you Mykayla and we were ecstatic. I was absolutely

thrilled when I found out it was a girl. Then when your sister came along we were even more thrilled.

We were finally complete. We kept up the cloaking spell around the mortals to not raise suspicion. One

day I got home Nyalia said that she had seen a strange man lurking around outside. It took a couple of

days but then I saw him and it was a bear. I recognized him but couldn’t figure out why. I knew he had

caught the scent of the girls. I decided I needed to protect them. It just happened that Mykenzie and

Kylani were injured after being in a fight so I brought the girls to the hospital and while they were asleep

I made a small cut along with their wings and a small cut in both Mykayla and Bree’s palms and did a

blood transfer. The girls never got sick but it worked. Mykayla and Bree absorbed enough of their

power to protect them. Bree was born with the wings and her mother taught her how to keep them

hidden.” I explained.

“How did the transfer not kill us?” Mykayla asked.

“Because you have my blood and your mother’s blood in you. Mykenzie and Kylani have the same

blood in them so it didn’t affect you like it would say if Dustin came in contact with it.” I tell her.

“We were told our parents died in a house fire. I remember Dimitri picking me up from the basketball

tournament and telling me. Then take me back to grandma’s house where Bree was.” I say.

“I know, but it was partially a lie. I wasn’t at home, but your mother was. She did pass away. The fire

was intentional. I am pretty sure it was Penthesilea and Phlegyas and the three were bears. However,

they made it look like an electrical malfunction.” I explain.

We continue to talk about everything, and while I can tell that everyone is upset, they also understand

why we did what we did. Zeus is pissed at me for keeping my family a secret. He said he would have

helped keep them safe if he had known. I am not sure if Mykenzie and Kylani believe me or not. What

happened next, no one was prepared for. I watch as Mykenzie and Kylani stand up, and they throw

something at Mykayla and Bree. We all watch as they are consumed in the blue-green fire that

Mykenzie and Kylani can make. I watch as Mykayla and Bree stand there, and all of a sudden, they

start controlling the fire that has encased them. Then the fire goes out.

“Throw it back,” Kylani says calmly.

We all watch as Mykayla and Bree raise their hands and act as if they are throwing something at

Mykenzie and Kylani. Within a second, they are consumed by the fire, and a huge smile breaks out on

their faces. Kaleb runs over to Kylani, freaking out because she is on fire. He reaches for her and sticks

his hand through the fire to grab her arm. The fire doesn’t burn him, and I gasp. That’s when we learn

that he was gravely wounded in the battle and that Kylani bit him. I have a feeling it was more than that.

I give Chris a look, and he knows too.

“Kaleb when she bit you did you touch her anywhere?” I ask.

“Yeah, I touched her back why?” He asks.

“I think you touched her wings and you exchanged blood. That fire should have burned you. It won’t if

you have their blood in you.” I explain.

Kylani says she doesn’t remember having a wound on her wings, but they heal so fast that it’s possible.

I look at Kaleb and notice nothing different about him, but that is normal. I switch my gaze to my two

beautiful daughters. They look a lot like their mother. I stand up, walk over to where they are sitting,

and kneel down.

“I am sorry to have to deceive both of you but I needed to keep you safe. That was the only way I could

think to keep you safe was to pretend I was dead. I was always watching over you.” I tell them.

“WAIT, THAT MEANS DIMITRI KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON THE ENTIRE TIME. YOU ARE SO

DEAD.” Kylani and Mykenzie yell at the same time.

We all turn to see Dimitri’s eyes go wide as he runs. They take off after him, and all three are gone.

Chris, Reecie, and Kaleb take off after them, and I notice that Kaleb doesn’t need Chris’s help

vanishing. Yep, we definitely exchanged some blood. He is not a god now but immortal and unable to

be killed.

“LET ME GO! THAT BASTARD KNEW WHAT UNCLE POSEIDON WAS UP TO,” Kylani screams.

Kaleb comes in carrying her, and she is squirming trying to get out of his hold. He is not letting go.

Reecie has Mykenzie, and she looks just as unhappy. They give me death glares, and I look away. I

heard their mother laughing in the background. We continue to talk for the rest of the afternoon, and

Dimitri does come back. Everything is cleared up and explained to poor Marcus, Jason, Zane, Zak, and

Jace. It is rather comical to see their expressions when they find out exactly who we all are and who

the girls are.

“Deklan did you know this?” Zane asks.

“Of course, I thought all the supernatural world knew who the girls were. I didn’t know about the god

part of the family though minus their mother.” He answers.

It is explained that Mykenzie and Kylani kept out of the werewolf part of the supernatural world because

of their mother. She was the creator, so they really had no real reason to get involved until the incident.

We explain that except for about five other packs, they have befriended that the werewolf community is

ignorant of their existence; Aphrodite plans to keep it that way. She says that this pack is the only one

to know the whole truth about them and that it had better stay that way. Mykayla sits little Dominick in

my lap, and he gives me a huge smile. I have a grandson and another grandchild on the way. I see

Kylani cringe and grab her stomach out of the corner of my eye. I whip my head to look at her, and this

catches Ashton’s eye, and he looks at her. He yells for Imyra, and she walks over to Kylani with Kaleb

right behind her. I watch as Imyra gives her something and rubs some lotion on her belly. They explain

that when babies have a growth spurt, it causes Kylani pain because they grow faster than human and

immortal babies. I watch Kaleb rub her belly and notice how calm and tender he is with her. I smile

because these nieces of mine need people to care for them. They have been hurt way too many times

and been through too much shit. I have a feeling this pack is different, and I am glad.
