Chapter 60 - A Pissed Off Alpha And A Heroic Luna.

Cole's P.O.V.

"It doesn't matter Cole because I've already made up my mind"

"What do you mean?"

I looked at her confused as I felt fear and panic rise within me because if Natalia orbs on her own then there's nothing I can do about it until she shows her ass up here again, it's not like when we shift into our wolves were if she shifts then I can too and I can go after her and try to stop her from doing something stupid and dangerous, she's completely on her own with her powers.

"I mean Cole, that long before I was your wife and even longer before I was discovered to be your mate and the long lost daughter and princess of all supernaturals, I was and still am a badass f*****g bitch, if I can survive twelve years of abuse and the infamous torture f*****g room then I'm sure I can survive a stupid little p***y like Mason"

"Natalia"

I say sternly with a lot of panic unwittingly seeping through my tone.

"Bye Cole"

NO!!.

"NO!!, COLE f*****g STOP HER!!"

"NATALIA!!...FUCK!!"

I pick up my chair and throw it against the nearest wall.

"Cole, calm down"

"DON'T f*****g TELL ME TO CALM DOWN, DAD, MY f*****g WIFE JUST ORBED OUT OF HERE TO GOD KNOWS f*****g WHERE AND SHE'S MOST LIKELY GONNA GET HER STUPID, REBELLIOUS ASS IN f*****g TROUBLE AND I CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO f*****g HELP HER!!"

I was absolutely furious, livid, apoplectic, any word that can describe pure unadulterated rage, I'm currently it.

"Cole, dads right ok, you need to calm down"

I was gripping my hair as I turned around to face my brother, if one more f*****g person tells me to calm down, I'm gonna lose my f*****g shit.

"Look Cole, Natalia is a smart girl, she's..."

I laughed loudly interrupting my brother.

"You can't be f*****g serious, right?"

"Oh for Christ's sake Cole, will you for once in your life just shut up and listen"

I looked at Emily in disbelief and anger.

"Emily, I know you're my wifes best friend and she'll happily spit roast me if I harm so much as a hair on your pretty little head but I'm warning you to watch your tone with me because I am very angry right now"

"And do I look like I give a flying shit?"

She walks around the table until she's standing right in front of me glaring at me like it's affecting me, sorry chica, only one glare has me quivering in my boots and that's only because Nat looks sexy whilst doing it.

"If you haven't noticed yet douchebag, Natalia is one of the strongest women on this god damn planet and it's not because she's a hybrid or a royal or a f*****g Luna, it's because she's Nattie, she's fought too hard and survived way too much to be defeated by Mason so if I was you I'd sit my ass down, calm down and whilst you're at it, have a little bit more faith in your wife unless you wanna find yourself sleeping on the couch for the rest of your marriage"

"She's right Cole, if I know my daughter like I do then I know she'll be fine"

I look up at my father in law and I had to try really hard not to glare, he maybe family but he's still the king of all supernaturals and he can have my head on a spike faster than you can say Natties back.

"Fine but if she comes back with so much as a hair out of place on her perfect little head then I'm gonna become everyone's worst f*****g nightmare including hers and I won't f*****g rest or be happy until I've got that spoilt bastard princes head mounted onto my f*****g wall"

I storm out of the dining room and run out into the back garden, I need to shift and let off some steam before I end up killing someone.

Natalia's P.O.V.

"Just keep an eye on those little bastards ok...prince Mason will rip our hearts out where we stand if they get out"

"Keep your panties on will you Zac, they're kids, they're not going anywhere"

"They better not"

I listen to the sound of retreating footsteps and look around the corner to the guy who is guarding the door, hmm, this is gonna be a piece of piss.

"Sword"

I whispered for the antique blade that's mounted on the wall, hopefully, this will do the trick.

"Hey toilet breath"

The rogue turns around and I throw the sword straight into his heart killing him.

I walk up to him and give him a few gentle kicks in the leg making sure he's really dead before kneeling down to get the keys from his pocket.

I then stood up and very quickly and quietly opened the door.

"Max...Charlotte"

I whisper shouted.

"Auntie Natawia"

"Sshhh!!...don't talk ok, you'll alert them"

I quietly close the door before using one of my powers to create an orb and give us light.

"Are you two ok? he hasn't hurt either of you has he?"

They both shake their heads no, that's good news.

"Do you by any chance know where he's brought you?"

Max shakes his head rapidly.

"He put masks on our eyes so we couldn't see anything"

"That f*****g asshole...oops"

I covered my mouth with my hand as my eyes widened, I may curse like a drunken sailor but I try my hardest not to curse around kids.

I had hoped that they didn't hear me but unfortunately, thanks to Charlotte's next words, they did.

"Auntie Nattie cursed"

"I know she always does it, unccy Cowe calls her potty mouth"

Does he now?.

Both kids chuckle and I smile, it feels so good to see them again and to hear their little laughs.

"Yes auntie Nattie cursed but we're not gonna tell anyone are we and if it does slip up then we'll just tell them I was under duress, ok?"

"But you're not underdressed, Nattie"

"No, I mean...forget it, we need too..."

"WHAT THE f**k?"

Oh shit.

"We need to get out of here, right now, Charlotte come here"

I pick Charlotte up and grab hold of Max's hand.

"Whatever you guys do, don't let go, ok"

"What's going on, Natawia?"

"I'm scared"

"Don't be, I'm taking you both home"

The door bursts open and I smirk when I see my very angry uncle who was huffing and puffing like the big bad wolf he's not.

"Hi Mason, bye Mason"

I orb out of the room that's not fit enough for a rat to be in let alone two young kids just as Mason lets out a very angry growl.

After a few minutes, I orbed myself, Charlotte and Max back to the mansion, more specifically, the living room.

"COLE!!, MOMMA!!, D..DADDY!!....WE'RE BACK!!"

I don't know why but I was feeling faint, really faint like I was gonna pass out, what the hell is wrong with me?.

"Erm Nattie, there's something I need to tell you"

"Not now, Lucky"

"NATTIE!!, NATTIE!!, OH MY GODDESS, YOU'RE OK!!"

Cole bursts into the room and immediately engulfs me in a hug.

"Of course I am, why wouldn't I be?"

"Nattie, please listen to me"

"Not now, Lucky"

Everyone bursts into the room and almost instantly, alpha Jay and Nate took Max and Charlotte from me and I smiled seeing how happy everyone is now that their babies are back home.

I was brought out of my happiness when I felt a hand cup my face gripping it, it wasn't enough to hurt me but enough to let me know the person doing it wasn't happy with me.

"Don't you ever f*****g do that to me again, Natalia, do you hear me?....Natalia"

"Yes, yes I...I hear yo..."

"Nat...Nattie"

I collapsed in Cole's arms and into darkness as Cole and everyone else continued to shout my name in panic.

One Hour Later...

"Mmm"

I moaned from the feeling of someone stroking my hair.

"You're finally awake...only took you an hour"

Cole mutters as he continues to stroke my hair.

His actions shows that he cares but his voice shows nothing but anger, great just what I need.

I open my eyes and look up at my sexy pillow who is looking down at me all stoic but I could tell he was pissed with me.

"Don't be angry with me Cole, please...I got the kids back, didn't I?"

"Yes you did at the expense of your health"

Urgh!!.

"Whatever, Cole"

I detach myself from him and get up off the bed.

I still felt a little weird, actually, I felt quite nauseous if I'm being honest but I felt ok enough to walk into the en-suite bathroom without falling over even despite my legs feeling like jelly.

"Don't whatever me Natalia and don't f*****g walk away from me either"

"Urgh!!, what is your problem, Cole? I was able to get my nephew and niece back before Mason hurt them, didn't I? why are you still so angry about this?"

He looked at me with shock and a lot of anger, he looked so angry that I thought he was gonna destroy the place to stop himself from hurting me.

"What's my problem?...my problem is my wife orbing herself into danger and fainting when she comes back, that's my problem"

"Oh for crying out loud Cole, I didn't faint because I orbed, I do it all the time and I've never fainted like that"

I rubbed my forehead feeling a headache coming on.

"Then why did you faint?"

"I don't know Cole, maybe I'm coming down with something, maybe it's because I haven't eaten anything all day, there's a lot of things that could have caused me to faint"

"No there's not, Nat"

"Yes there is Cole, you just refuse to believe there is because you want to use this as an excuse to get on your bluddy soapbox and get angry with me over me not obeying your stupid commands when instead of getting angry with me, you should be happy and proud that I was able to bring those kids home to their families"

He closed his eyes and let out a sigh as I noticed him calming down quite a bit.

"I am babe, it's just..."

"Yoo-hoo, is she awake yet?"

"Urgh!!"

Cole groaned.

"Do you see her sleeping on the bed? AAHHH!!"

Cole gave me a what the f**k? look.

"Don't talk to Emily like that, you're angry with me not her"

I whispered to him before going back into the bedroom.

"Hey Em, what's up?"

"Ooh yay, you're awake"

Emily squealed and I groaned.

Red cheeks, tipsy stance, squealing like a chipmunk on helium and a nearly empty glass of white wine in her hand...oh god, she's trashed.

"Yer I'm awake Em...erm, how much have you had?"

"Oh, only one"

"Just one?"

I quizzed her not believing her at all.

"She means one bottle, nice to see you awake Nat now you and Mr Grumpy pants over there come and join us in the fun, we're opening the Absolut next"

Emily squealed once again before leaving the room with Amy, I turned to look at Cole who was already looking at me and I could see that he's still angry and annoyed with me, urgh!!, this man of mine.

I walk over to him wrapping my arms around his waist and resting my head on his chest, I understand why he's so mad at me but he needs to understand that I had to do what I did and I'd happily do it over and over again if it means saving someone I love.

"I'm sorry, Cole"

"I know, babe"

He sighed wrapping his arms around my shoulders.

"You mean the world to me Natalia and I don't wanna lose you"

"You're not gonna lose me, Cole"

I pull away from him a little and look up into his eyes, I cup his face with my hands and gently caress his cheeks.

"Do you forget your married to a strong woman and not some timid little girl who needs constant protection?"

"I know, babe"

He says whilst chucking slightly.

"But you being a strong woman doesn't give me a free pass not to worry or care about you Natalia, just because you're a hybrid doesn't mean that I can allow or agree for you to go off into dangerous situations because you've got powers"

"I know"

Cole leans down placing his forehead onto mine.

"You're my soulmate, Natalia Vasquez, you may be a strong, powerful woman but to me, you're my whole life and if I ever lost you...I'd die....please...just please promise me that as selfish as this may sound, you'll think of me first before you make any more stupid decisions"

I take a deep breath before nodding my head.

"Ok"

He smiled and I smiled seeing that beautiful smile of his.

"Good girl"

He kisses my forehead and lips before grabbing hold of my hand.

"Now, let's get downstairs before a bunch of drunk rowdy wolves get even drunker and destroy our home"

I chuckle as Cole leads us out of our bedroom and down the hallway to the elevator, I told him I didn't mind walking the stairs but Cole told me he didn't want me to walk down four flights of stairs in my condition, urgh!!, a girl faints one time and all of a sudden she's weak.

"I'm pretty sure you've fainted before, Nat"

"Whatever, Lucky"

After the elevator ride from hell and I only say that because it didn't help with my nausea at all, we went into the kitchen or at least it was the kitchen, it now looks like a bar/restaurant/night club thanks to this lot.

"You all have made yourself way too comfy in my house"

"That's what you do with guests"

Christian said with a mouth full of pizza.

"Hey dork, didn't your momma teach you any manners? you're not supposed to talk with your mouth full"

Christian smirks as he winks at me, dickhead.

"You don't make guests feel comfy enough that they won't leave, Christian"

Cole hands me a bottle of water before sitting down and pulling me onto his lap.

"Don't be mean, Cole"

Christian says with a full mouth once again which I chuckle at, this boy never learns maybe he will now after Destiny shouted at him, you don't really wanna mess with a girl who is skilled with every weapon known to man.

"Eww babe, say it don't spray it"

"Sorry baby"

Christian kisses her cheek which Destiny grimaces at, she doesn't like greasy things and isn't too happy that my brother has just kissed her after eating greasy foods.

"What were you all talking about anyway?"

"Oh, we were just talking about when we first realised we were in love with our mates that's all, it's quite interesting actually"

Amy answers sounding genuinely fascinated.

"Is this normal chit chat for a bunch of drunken reprobates?"

Cole responded and I chuckled whilst eating the nachos that Brody gave me.

"Maybe, now it's your turn to answer, when did you both realise you were in love with each other?"

Amy asked and I looked at Cole knowing the answers to both but I'll never reveal mine, it's too cliche and cheesy chick flick movie storyline to tell anyone.

"Well, I've always been in love with Natalia but I guess I truly found out on my eighteenth birthday"

"Urgh!!, finding out she's your mate is completely different to realising you're in love with her, Cole"

Emily rolled her eyes before finishing her drink.

"Actually Emily, I didn't find out Natalia was my mate until she turned eighteen"

"Really?"

She asked confused.

"Really"

"That's weird"

"It's not weird Emily, it's just how it works"

I looked over at Emily who had a look of confusion on her face.

"Nothing new there"

I chuckled at Lucky, she can be a right bitch when she wants to be.

"Wait, so you realised you loved Natalia when you were eighteen and she was fifteen but you all didn't discover you weren't siblings until she was eighteen"

"That's right"

Cole says awkwardly after taking a sip of his beer.

"I couldn't control how I felt about her even if at the time we were under the assumption that we were siblings"

"Aww, that's so sweet and kinda sick"

Everyone chuckled at Amy who was baulking at the thought of a brother being in love with his sister.

"What about you, Nat?"

"What about me?"

"When was the moment you realised you were in love with Cole?"

I look down at Cole who was looking at me with eager eyes and a smirk playing on his lips.

"I don't remember"

I buried my face into my nachos hoping that they'd get bored and leave me alone but nope, they're all way too drunk and determined.

"Oh come on Natalia, you don't have to be shy, we've all told our stories now it's your turn to tell us yours"

Urgh!!.

"I seriously don't remember ok, now leave it alone"

"Pfft please, how could you forget the night Cole nearly died after his alpha coronation?"

What in the actual f**k?.

I look up at Massimo in shock and horror as he casually eats his food.

"How do you know that?"

I said barely above a whisper as Massimo's body and actions stiffened.

"What?"

"You heard me Massimo...how do you know when I fell in love with Cole?"

"Lucky guess, I g..guess"

"Lucky guess?"

Who the hell is he trying to kid?.

"Massimo, nobody and I mean nobody knows about that, I didn't even tell Emily and she's my best friend"

"Erm hello...what about me?"

Brody says in disbelief but a quick glare from me quickly shut him up.

"Look Nat, it's no big deal ok, just drop it"

"No big deal?...of course, it's a big deal Mass"

"She's got a point, Massimo, if she's gonna tell anyone something as important as that then she'd tell me first"

"And me"

Oh for Christ's sake.

I run my hands through my hair in frustration.

"How did you find out something like that if Nattie never told anyone?"

Cole asked and I looked at Massimo hoping to finally get an answer, there's no way anyone would know about this unless I either told them or they read my mind, it's impossible for anybody to know otherwise.

Massimo shared a look with Dimitri who was also stiff and had a very stoic expression despite his eyes showing an array of different emotions.

The two men looked like they were in a mind link with each other, Dimitris expressions suddenly turned angry and worried whilst Massimos held a different type of emotion that I couldn't decipher, he closed his eyes and sighed, he then turned to face me looking me dead in my eyes.

"Natalia told me"

"What? no, I didn't, I've never told anyone that, it's too embarrassing"

"Embarrassing, why?"

Cole asked sounding hurt, I turn to look at him trying not to show how annoyed I am with him because the answer is obvious.

"Babe, I was fifteen when you became alpha which means that just like you, I was under the assumption we were siblings so yes, I was embarrassed that I was in love with my own brother which is hella f*****g weird"

"You can say that again"

Both Nathan and Christian said at the same time whilst clinking their bottles like in a toast.

"Hush, now you...tell me how you know this?"

"I already told you, Nat, why can't you let it go?"

"Because asshole...oh god"

I jumped up and immediately regretted it when I felt dizzy.

"Nat, are you ok?"

Cole was quickly by my side wrapping his arm around my waist to keep me steady.

"I'm fine, Cole"

I think.

I look up at Massimo and Dimitri who were also standing and they were both looking at me with worry and concern.

"Your Luna isn't gonna ask you again Massimo, now answer the damn question"

Massimo and Dimitri both share a look before looking back at myself and Cole, Massimo let out a sigh before telling me something that made absolutely no sense to me or anyone else in the room.

"You told me...you told me in 2031...when I was ten years old"

"Twenty wh..what?....I..I'm so confused"

Did he just say 2031?.

"Yes he did"

Lucky confirmed.

"Natalia"

Massimo grabbed hold of my hand and held it in both of his.

"We're not who you think we are?"

There was silence as Massimo and I stared at each other but it didn't last for long when Cole started going apeshit.

"I f*****g knew it, Angelo, go and get some warriors, NOW!!"

"NO WAIT!!, I promise you, Cole, we're not a threat especially not to you or to Natalia"

"THEN f*****g EXPLAIN AND QUICK BECAUSE WITH JUST ONE CLICK OF MY FINGERS, YOU TWO ARE IN MY DUNGEONS FASTER THAN ANYTHING!!"

"Ok, everyone calm down, we can explain everything to you"

"THEN EXPLAIN, I WON'T ASK YOU BOTH AGAIN, DIMITRI!!"

"Cole, calm down"

I look up at Cole as he looks down at me, tightening his grip on my waist like he's afraid he'll lose me as soon as he lets go.

I give him a reassuring smile which manages to calm him down but I knew that it wouldn't last for long at least not until Dimitri and Massimo start talking.

"Speak"

Cole growled.

"Ok, our names aren't Dimitri and Massimo King, well at least not fully anyway...and we weren't born May 16th 2002"

What?.

"Well then...who are you?"

I asked confused.

Dimitri looks at me with swollen red eyes, he looks like he's gonna cry and for some weird reason it hurts my heart to see, I just wanna hug him.

"Our names are Massimo and Dimitri Vasquez...and we were born February 7th 2021, seven days before our fathers birthday and eight days before our mothers"

Wait? what?.

"Wait...aren't your birthdays the fourteenth and fifteenth of February?"

Emily asked whilst pointing a confused finger at both myself and Cole.

I nodded my head slightly as my eyes were glued to Dimitris.

"Who are you?"

I asked with a shaky voice already knowing the answer but I needed to hear it from them to prove that I'm not going crazy.

"We're your sons, Natalia"
