The Black Alder Series (Books 1-3)

The Dream-2



Lauren Pov (before Kayla was taken) I had a dream. I knew I was dreaming, but I couldn’t wake up. I figured I would have to see it through first. I was somehow at my old packhouse, walking up to Alpha Liam’s room. I knew this path well, as it is the path I take often to see Kayla. I floated through the door somehow and saw Liam talking with some man I hadn’t seen before. He was a tall, lean man with jet-black hair. I couldn’t see his face due to my back being on me. It looked like Liam and he were in a heated debate.

“I’ve come for the girl,” the man states.

“The little bitch belongs to me. Another man who wanted her has proven himself by bringing her back to me in exchange for her power. What makes you think I won’t give her to him when I’m done with her?” her?” Liam snorts.

“I have traveled for years to find her. Do you think I will give up on getting her this easily? I will kill you and anyone else who stands in my way.”” The man threatens.

Liam growls and slams the man against the wall.

“How dare you come into my house and threaten me?” Liam growls, choking the man, but he simply laughs. You can tell he isn’t afraid of Liam; rather, it’s the other way around.

“You can’t kill me, and even if you do manage to find a way, I won’t be gone for long. I will put my spirit into another body and come back to seek revenge. Who are you to challenge me? I am Lord Alfarez. Alfarez. The man turns into a dark mist and then reappears back in the chair, sitting comfortably.

“This other person you have employed has enchanted the door so that I cannot access it. You will open this door and let me in. I will have her,” he demanded.

“No!!” I yelled.

The man instantly turned to look directly at me, his eyes wide and full of something that looked like shock as he saw me.

Liam took that opportunity to punch the man and ended up knocking him out. Liam didn’t seem to see me, which was weird because the man looked right at me. How did he sense me? I remember Solem saying something about Lord Alverez killing Kayla’s entire family to try to get to her powers.

“Put him in the dungeons’ ‘, Liam boomed, and some PacPac members picked up Alverez’s body, taking him to the dungeons.

Liam then walked to the closet and pulled out a girl. He threw her to the floor. She pushed her black hair out of the way. It was Kayla.

My vision swirled, and suddenly I was back in the Firelands. I watched myself walk up to a hefty man. I spoke to him in my own voice, though it didn’t make sense.

“You must listen to me,” I told him.

“That is enough, Shikarien.”. The man commanded me

“But it will happen tonight; she must be protected,” I told him.

“Then she will,” he told me, and my vision swirled again.

You must You must remember. I heard a voice tell me, and then I woke up.

My whole face was pouring in sweat. That dream. The dream felt so real. And why was I in the Firelands again? How did Lord Alverez see me? Why did I dream of Kayla being tied up? I shrugged it off. Kayla was safe. She is probably sleeping right now. Since I’m up, I got dressed and headed to the hospital. People were in and out all morning.

Dr. Lauren, we need you in the OR. I heard someone say this on the speaker.

I was finishing performing surgery on a wolf who had broken his leg when Serene and Matt came bursting into my room.

“Kayla is missing; we need your help looking for her. My mind drifted back to my dream, but I needed to try to see if we could find her first.

We searched the whole ground, but nothing happened. It was getting late, and we went into the kitchen. I started to tell Serene about my dream when she stopped walking, her eyes becoming white.

“We’re under attack,” Serene yelled. “I need to go protect Luna.” “Can you help me?” she asked, her eyes turning back to normal.

Let’s go,” I told her. The scene outside was terrible. Bodies were everywhere.

I saw everyone fighting. Matt gave me a sad look before taking out another wolf who almost reached Serene. Serene was using her powers to protect Elena, but I could see she looked uneasy. My focus was directed back to the oncoming wave of wolves. These wolves smelled just like Liam’s pack. Fuck, these are Liam’s wolves.

A wolf tried to come around us, but I was able to yank its heart out mid-air. It fell dead. Serene looked at me in surprise. In truth, I have no idea how I learned to do that, but keeping my cousin safe was my priority as she protected Luna.

I saw that Solem had just joined in, and we beat Liam’s pack back right after that.

Solem and the twins rushed to the dungeons to question the prisoners.

“Get the injured to the hospital now,” I demanded as I picked up two wolves who were severely injured. The hospital was soon filled with the injured. Lucky for us, no one’s injuries and most would be healed in a few hours.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

My head went back to my dream. Liam’s wolves attacked. Kayla’s abduction. She had to be at Liam’s packhouse, and it looks like so is Lord Alverez. We had to get there before Alverez woke up and took her. I ran to the packhouse.
