The Prophecy

by Amanda DeShane

  “I agree, but we are going to have many people here, we will need more room. We can expand our bigger kitchen and put in a freezer room and pantry room for dry food storage. We will need more floor space for seating more people and maybe a few fridges and stoves for cooking for multiple people at once.” Explained Aurora.

  “We will also need five tables that will sit twenty people or more at a time.” Said Karis as he picked up his cup to take a drink of his pop. He liked root beer so much that he conjured it in caseloads.

  “So that’s 16 units per floor that house two people each, that’s 32 people per floor. So, if we make four new floors down and find a way to block off or key code our current floor our bedrooms are on for ourselves as an extra safety measure.” Said Eli as he loaded more mashed potatoes on his plate. Aurora stared at him when she first had eaten with them; she had been surprised at the amount of food they could put away. Now she understood since her shift that they all ate a lot because they burnt more energy with shifting and everything else. “Oh, and key code, our hoard room. Our dragons wouldn’t be happy letting just anyone into their territory down there.” Said Teagan. “So, what do you guys think is it doable?” Said Aurora.

  “I think it’s a perfect idea I just hope we can pull it off.” Said Deacon as he wiped his face with a napkin.

  “Okay, so who is picking up the witches and warlocks and teleporting them here?” Asked Aurora as she looked at everyone expectantly and reached for her cup to take a sip. Eli raising a finger in the air said. “I can help with teleporting five people in.” Karis nodded, then added. “I can teleport the other seven in.” Aurora looked to Karis.

  “You have a way to erase their memories and have asked them to make our wards around this place as strong as possible for in the case of an attack?” Asked Aurora. Karis nodded his head and replied.

  “Yeah, that’s all lined up and taken care of.” Another idea popped into her heard.

  “We need magical soundproofing, not just the outside walls but our individual walls too for security and privacy reasons.” Said Aurora as she blushed. Teagan laughed and replied.

  “Yes, I am sure we can figure that out. Its possible right Karis?” Asked Teagan as he placed his fork on his plate. Karis smiled knowing full well where his brothers' mind had gone.

  “Yes, don’t worry about it; consider it done.” Said Karis. Aurora couldn’t believe they were making this all happen; it seemed so surreal to her that soon they would have a full underground compound and hopefully more people with different skill sets to help fight this war. Now all they had to do was wait one more day to make it all happen.

  Classes were canceled for the next week for her and most other students in light of the recent attacks on the school. She had not seen the attacks, but she had heard about it. Everyone was sent to their dorm rooms for safety reasons. Aurora got up and snuck past her sleeping mates. Eli lay flopped at the foot of the massive king hanging bed. Snoring heavily dreaming about something making her chuckle. He was cute when he slept, and he moved his feet, kicking like a dog when he dreamed. Must be his inner wolf she thought. Wearing a grey spaghetti strap tank and fluffy flannel pajama pants that had pink hearts on them, she strode out the bedroom door. She walked to the stairs and went up to the kitchen to seek out coffee. Turning the sink on the water gushed and she made quick work of filling the bright green kettle she had picked out online for Karis to conjure. Plugging it into the outlet, she then turned and opened one of the new stainless-steel fridges. Grabbing the creamer and a blueberry bagel she returned to the counter. While waiting for the kettle to do its thing, she cut her bagel and placed it in the toaster. With their plan to expand and have more people here to fight the war using this as a secret base, they had Karis conjure five fridges for the main kitchen and six big deep freezers. At the moment, only one fridge was in use. But all five would be set up in the kitchen soon. They had mapped out a doorway to make a pantry room and another door for a freezer room where they could line the walls with freezers. Shifters and most other species in Asgard ate a lot, so they would need the extra resources. Karis made plans to conjure a microwave, stove, and fridge for every apartment too. But with that many people and no idea what might happen at any given time, they needed to make sure they were set for a few month's food and supplies wise. She knew firsthand that shifters and Valkyries ate a lot; she had to get used to cooking bigger meals lately for everyone. The first time she cooked for everyone had been comical. They all stared at her, then Teagan had asked. “Where’s the rest of the food?” He was serious too. Later he felt bad about it. She had not realized how much constituted a shifter meal. Eli had cooked with her the next night to show her. Shaking her thoughts back to the present, she thought about how Karis had told her that it was possible to make the floor that the kitchen was on a bit bigger. So, they could put in extra seating like a cafeteria type of thing except homier and more inviting.

  Paisley’s room would move to their private level; it would have four bedrooms and the big room they currently had plus the pool area. The whole floor would be key coded. And every apartment would be key coded too for security reasons. They also had agreed to make a security room on their private level. Aurora had pointed out that you just never knew what people might or might not do if they brought one hundred people here sworn in or not who knew how they would act or if everyone would get along. Better to be prepared than not.

  She and Paisley had picked out large dark wood tables that had benches that could seat twenty people. They figured five of those once the floor space was rearranged. And they would need far more cupboard space. The kettle started its shrill sounding alarm to alert her it was ready. Unplugging it, she grabbed her new favorite tall yellow mug. She made short work fixing up her bagel with cream cheese and making her instant coffee. Suddenly big arms wrapped around her, she would have jumped, but she could smell her mates' scent.

  Teagan gruffly whispered. “Mm... you all bright-eyed in the morning with coffee and breakfast I like. I could just eat you for breakfast.” She giggled and swatted him.

  “Teagan, you should know better. You never get between a woman and her food and morning coffee.” She teased as she picked up her mug and plate with her bagel and headed for the stairs. “Where are you going?” asked a somewhat disappointed yet intrigued Teagan.

  Aurora flung her response over her shoulder. “I need some me time with a good fantasy novel, my coffee, and food. The couch with cushions and a roaring fireplace are waiting for me. I will come to play a later, handsome dragon.” She said as she turned her head and winked at him.

  “You are getting rather good at flirting and teasing. It’s killing me inside. “He complained as he fell over grabbing his heart pretending it was killing him. A chuckle floating down from up the stone spiral staircase leading to the library was the only answer back he got.

  Today was the day they had been excitedly waiting for. Remodel day! Aurora had let Mrs. Madam Rosemary know that she wouldn’t be attending class today because she had a pressing war issue that needed to be dealt with. She was surprised when Mrs. Madam Rosemary had nodded her head in approval and said that she would have class notes sent to her tablet so she wouldn’t fall behind. Maybe it was because she had grown up in the human realm and saying something like that to a teacher there would have landed her in the office and a phone call home. But the difference between that reality and this one felt odd. Grabbing a robe and her green short shorts, she stepped into them. She had slept in only pink lace undies and a white tank last night. It got a little hot with five bodies in a bed. Padding barefoot, she walked out the door and up to the kitchen. Coffee was a must, and they had been up late the night before planning what needed to be done. So, they could explain their wants in detail to the witches and warlocks that would be portalled in today. With a spring in her step, she filled the kettle with water and waited for it to boil. Opening a cupboard, she grabbed her tall yellow mug that was her favorite. Setting it on the counter, s
he paused and made a mental note to ask Karis if they could replace this counter with a marble one and a stool sitting area on one side. The kettle whistled, signaling it was ready, so she reached over and unplugged it from the wall. She made quick work of making her coffee then went to sit at the kitchen table they had found here when they had cleaned the whole place. Paisley walked into the kitchen rubbing her eyes wearing pink polka dot pajamas and bunny slippers. Aurora started laughing so hard she couldn’t stop.

  “What are you laughing at? Is it my hair or something?” Asked Paisley half asleep still as she walked to grab a cup and make herself coffee too.

  “I’m sorry, no, it was the bunny slippers and you being a wolf shifter.” Explained Aurora as she continued laughing and gulping for air. Paisley quirked an eyebrow.

  “I like my bunny slippers what's wrong with them?” Asked Paisley. To which Aurora howled with laughter. Then trying her damnedest not to laugh tried to explain.

  “You’re a wolf shifter, so essentially you’re a wolf wearing bunny slippers what do wolfs eat?” Explained Aurora. Paisley finally got the gist of it and giggled.

  “I never thought about it that way, but I see now it’s a bit comical.” Said Paisley laughing. With her coffee made, she carried her cup over to the table and sat with Aurora.

  “So today is the day we have been waiting for. Are you as excited as me?” Asked Paisley as she rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. Aurora nodded and swallowed a gulp of coffee.

  “Yes, but I’m nervous too; if this is not done properly, then it could lead to someone knowing about this place, and that wouldn’t be good.” Said Aurora as she picked up her yellow mug to take a sip.

  “Yeah, that’s true. But think of all the virtual shopping we can do. We will have to decorate the rooms and everything. The people that join our cause will have nothing, so making sure everything is stocked is a good idea. And Karis has that handy ability to be able to get us anything we need and then some. Seriously girl that mate of yours is handy.” Said Paisley with a laugh.

  Aurora laughed along with her mainly because Paisley was such a girly girl, and well, Aurora was not into the shopping end of things. She counted herself lucky that Asgard didn’t have any malls. Heavy footsteps came up the stairs, and Eli walked into the kitchen. Walking over to Aurora, he bent down and kissed her on the cheek. “Morning, sweety.” Then he turned and filled the kettle with some more water and put it on to boil. Reaching into the cupboard, he grabbed his favorite cup, which happened to be a Star Wars cup — turning towards the girls, he said.

  “Todays the day, so in an hour, Karis and I will go get the witches and warlocks blindfold them and bring them here. I will teleport five, and Karis will teleport seven. Before we teleport them here, Karis will spell them to forget every detail about the hideaway even existing. Once they help with expanding this place and are teleported out of it, they will automatically forget everything.” Explained Eli as he made his coffee and walked to the kitchen table in five large strides.

  “Well, we had better go get ready than.” Said Aurora as she finished the last of her coffee, then got up strode to the sink and placed it there. In a hurry, she headed down the stone stairs to get dressed.

  Once in the bedroom, she padded past the bed only to suddenly get snatched and pulled back into bed up against a muscular body. Looking over her shoulder, Teagan starred back at her with a big grin on his face. His hands roamed downwards with every intention of going further. Aurora tempted to let him looked at a sleeping Deacon and Karis feet away from them.

  “Mm... I want to play with a little nub while they sleep and totally miss out.” He whispered into her ear as he held her tightly against his front. Aurora, totally aroused just at the thought of being had in front of the other two, tried to resist and attempted to struggle free. They didn’t have long anyway before they had to be ready for company.

  “We don’t have long dragon, and I need to get dressed.” Panted Aurora as she fought her arousal and wiggled, which only resulted in a groan from him. His reaching fingers found their mark, and she gasped and sucked in a breath.

  “Dammit dragon, we can’t do this here; they will wake up.” Said Aurora as she tried to reason with him. But there was no arguing with an aroused dragon who decided to go all caveman on your ass.

  “Let them; they can watch if they want.” He said into her ear as he continued slow circles on that nub that drove her crazy. Lifting her up he slipped her shorts and undies off in one pull. Then he sat her on his lap with her back to his front as he sat on the side of the bed. She realized he was completely naked, and his bulge with a mind of its own sat between her legs. He didn’t wait to seduce her more.

  “Since we don’t have long, I will be quick.” He said as he grabbed her hips, lifted her up, and plunked her down on his cock with no warning. Aurora gasped in surprise and pleasure. He then reached a long arm around her thin body and started rubbing her clit as he stood and picked her up with himself still in her. Walking over to the back of the couch in their sitting area, he placed her over the back of it. Then still rubbing that spot, he started to pound her. She tried to be quiet, but it was no use. He was wildly driving into her, and it was primal and arousing as she felt him drive home with each trust. Footsteps walked past them, and she could smell the musk of her giant mates arousal thick on the air. Teagan used his link.

  “Brother, if you want to join, get the lube from the bathroom and lube her ass.” Footsteps sounded again a few moments later, and her giant mates aroused smell came closer. Teagan pulled himself out and lifted her up flipping her around, so she clung to his waist as he re-entered her while standing. Suddenly she could feel Karis close, and his hand found her clit, and his other one stuck a cold substance up her ass with two very thick fingers. Aurora gasped a little at the sensation as he pumped. Then suddenly, she couldn’t feel him and was about to look over her shoulder for him while Teagan kept thrusting into her, and she came. When Teagan abruptly lifted her off his cock and thrust her ass onto Karis’s cock, she gasped and groaned loudly as it stung for a moment, then she adjusted. Karis gasped along with Aurora, who hadn’t been expecting that, as Teagan remounted Aurora from the front, pushing into her once again. Pumping hard, he came as he rubbed her nub. Footsteps neared them, and Aurora bit her lip, looking up at an aroused Deacon as Karis kept thrusting into her from below. Deacon, very aroused, positioned himself at her entrance and pounded into her. Making her moan as he rubbed her clit. Both were moving at a wild speed, Aurora moaned, having given up on being quiet. Then she came as Deacon rubbed her clit making all of them come at once with the squeezing of her second orgasm.

  Having had finally gained the use of her legs again after that horny dragon of hers had grabbed her and gotten her into positions she had never dreamed of before. She looked at the clock on the wall. She had fifteen minutes before the guys left to get the witches and warlocks. The guys had just easily gone and pulled pants and a shirt on. Dammit, didn’t they know it took a woman longer to get ready? Running to their walk-in closet, Aurora came to a stop. Then starred at the rows of clothing. What would be best to wear that would communicate I am your strong leader; don’t mess with me, she thought. Grabbing a pair of black leather pants, black bulletproof corset, and her traditional blue and silver dress that had slits on each side that came to her waist, she ran into the bathroom to shower fast. Amber had given her the outfit the first day she arrived and told her it had been her favorite. Some things didn’t change from life to life.

  Once showered and changed, she ran up the stone steps, her combat boots making stomping sounds that echoed off the stone walls. She ran up until she reached the second level, where everyone was bound to be waiting in the command center. Paisley sat in a chair in front of the monitor wall doing something on one of the computers. Deacon and Teagan stood with hands in pockets waiting.

  “Any word from them yet?” Asked Aurora as she slid into a chair next to Paisley.

  “Yeah, Eli che
cked in; they should be here soon. Karis is just doing the erase memory after spell. “Said, Deacon.

  “Hey, Aurora, I think I found that program you were talking about that tracks Fenrir and his demons and whatnot. But it is password protected.” Said Paisley as she clicked away on the computer. Aurora spun her chair around and addressed the hologram.

  "Aurora #41 I have a question. “The hologram came to life looking at Aurora, “How can we help you?” Asked the hologram of her past self. “What is the password for the tracking Fenrir program?” Asked Aurora. “The password is B9T3D4E2.” Said the hologram. Paisley quickly entered the password then they all gasped in surprise when each screen on the full wall of monitors came to life.

  “What am I seeing here?” Asked Aurora stunned at all the different maps and dots moving slowly on them. The hologram answered, “The red dots are demons, the green dots are giants, the orange dots are other species, and the small yellow dots are Fenrir’s family, and the big yellow dot is Fenrir.” Everyone stared shocked. Then Paisley broke the silence. “You realize what this means, right? We can know when and where they are. We can strike or avoid them until we are ready to fight!” Said Paisley. Deacon walked closer to the screens. “Each of these maps is one of the nine realms! That explains the nine monitors.” Said Deacon.

  They didn’t have much time to talk about it more. Abruptly Eli and Karis popped into existence with the twelve witches and warlocks. Who gaped in disbelief and awe at the command room? Aurora almost wanted to laugh; it was comical. She guessed a lot of her people had lost hope. And a few figured that her past selves and her mates hadn't been doing anything of value to end the war. So, she could see how this existing came as a surprise to them. Seeing her, they all bowed respectably. Then stood at attention, waiting for direction.

  “Karis can you make it so Asgard won’t feel the ground shaking from this renovation?” Asked Aurora. Karis looking up and responded.
