THE SHIFT

In the midst of the subtle chaos that had ensued with Freya and Lucille groaning in pain, Nathan stood with an air of solemnity in the large living room. His gaze was fixed on his two daughters, who were slithering on the floor like frustrated, pained, snakes. Beside them were their mates.

"Kane!"

Kane turned sharply to his Prince, his attention divided between his almost wailing mate, and his stern Prince.

"Take Lucille outside. She is about to shift. She would need the calmness of the forest air."

Kane, without the slightest hesitation, obeyed. He carried Lucille in his arms, and hurried out of the room, without turning aside to notice the positions of the others. However, Shane and Clem followed after him, including Dobah, to offer protection incase of unpredictable circumstances.

"Peter, are there rooms which we can use to work for healing magic?"

Peter nodded, eager to be useful in this situation.
