An Unexpected War by Kylie (free e books to read online txt) 📕

brown-black hair curls onto his head like a bunch of vines. A single tendril of hair rests at the middle of his forehead. He has a masculine build. His skin is ruddy. He has wide feet. He looked at me, and froze.
"Delilah?" He asked.
"Hey long time no see, teacher man." I called, waving the remote as a hi. I gave Calico headphones, and pressed play to the movie.
"There you go Coco." I said, running a hand through her hair.
"I never thought I'd deal with any of that school again. I guess I was wrong." Tom said.
"Yeah, school changes people. Now I'm running from what I've been told is certain death. Wonderful, huh?" I said, sitting down next to Calico. Tom sat next to me.
"Anything good happen in your life?" I asked.
"Eh well, the usual, except now I'm a 'gaurd'" Tom air quoted the word gaurd.
I laughed.
Tom's eyes travelled to my stomach.
"Are you pregnant?

" He asked, surprised.
"Who knows. For all I know, there are bricks in my stomach. Never should have eaten at that restaurant." I said.
Tom laughed.
"Leave her alone Tom, Kai'll get angry." Ethan said, watching Dora with Calico.
I laughed.
"Wow, Uncle Kitty likes Dora!" I laughed.
Tom raised an eyebrow.
"Coco nicknamed him Uncle Kitty because he turned into a kitten to sneak in the door." I explained.
Tom laughed at Ethan.
"At least Delilah didn't nickname you. Then again, Douchinator has a good ring to it, Uncle Kitty." Kai laughed, from a few seats away.

***************************************

I woke up, my mouth closing. I had fallen asleep on Tom's arm, who was looking at me funny.
"What? Was I saying random stuff in my sleep?" I asked.
"You were literally purring." He responded.
"And its amazing, I can't remember dreaming." I said, scratching my head. "Or falling asleep. Wow, now I remember how my mom got me to sleep as a kid. She put on foreign language shows. I shouldn't have watched Dora."
Tom laughed.
"You are the weirdest person I have ever met." He laughed. "Everyone else except for the pilot are asleep, while you slept like a happy kitten."
I pouted.
"You make a really good pillow." I said. "I wasn't drooling, was I?"
Tom laughed.
"No. I don't think so." He said.
I looked over; Calico was curled up on Kai's lap, and both of them were asleep. The other boys, Kyo and Ethan were asleep on the ground.
"You remember when I got this?" I pulled out my phone, showing him his number in my phone.
"It was a longshot." Tom said. "I KNEW you had a mate, but still, I-"
"You were so desperate, it was written all over your face." I giggled.
"Singers turn me on. And you just HAPPENED to be able to sing. Like, really good." Tom said, pinning me under him, his hands holding him off of me.
"If Kai wakes up, we're dead, so stop making it misleading." I said, pushing him off of me.
"You're no fun. Want some wine?" Tom asked.
"Can't. Knocked up, remember?" I snapped.
Tom froze, halfway to the mini fridge in the jet.
"You really ARE pregnant?" Tom asked.
"Mostly because I know someone with the power to make girls pregnant with a glance. Hard to explain. She's like the Aphrodite of the present world." I replied.
Tom looked at me, before getting the bottle of wine, and some apple cider.
"Ooh, gimme gimme gimme." I grabbed for the apple cider. Apple cider is my favorite. It's like, the bomb. If I met a man made of ice cream and apple cider, I'd marry him, then divorce by eating him...Ah, good idea.
"Fine." Tom swigged the wine, before giving me the apple cider bottle.
Tom continued drinking the wine, and he almost finished the bottle, when I snatched if away from him.
"That's enough for you. You'll get drunk." I said.
Tom looked at me, before grinning.
"Nah, I ain't not drunk...Now tell me, how do ya feel about going to that back room, and fucking with me?" His words were slurred. He was drunk.
"Tom, I need you to stay here, okay?" I asked.
I started to get up, but Tom, he did something I didn't expect. He pulled me back, pinning me under him. His lips crashed onto mine. For a split second, I let him kiss me, but then thrashed and kicked.
"Stay still, you're making it worse." He crooned, his words slurring. "You don't know how hard I'm getting over here."
I pushed at him, breaking the kiss long enough to start a scream.
Tom covered my mouth with his, muffling the scream.
"Don't be like that." He muttered.
That was it. I was going to be raped by a drunk guy in a jet. To my surprise, Tom flew off of me, hitting the jet wall. Kai stood in front of me, anger literally steaming off of him.
"I never did trust you around alcohol, Tomothy buddy." Kai hissed, changing into a mountain lion and tackling Tom, ripping at him, until Tom's clothes barely covered him.
"Stop, don't kill him. He's drunk." I snapped.
Kai dragged Tom onto a couch, before changing back, and rushing into some clothes.
"Did he touch you, do anything more than forcefully kiss you?" Kai asked, patting over my body.
"Nothing more." I said.
Cannon and Ambrosia kicked. But what was weird, I swear I felt three kicks at the same time.
I gasped, clutching my stomach.
"But, she said twins-"
"What?" Kai asked.
"I...I felt three kicks instead of two." I said.
Kai looked confused, but then woke Kyo up. Kyo has wide brown eyes the color of varnished wood. His luxurious, wavy, orange hair is short and is worn in spikes. He is very tall and has a boyish build. His skin is tanned. He has a weak chin and large hands.
"What?" Kyo snapped.
Kai muttered something to Kyo, and Kyo came up to me, lifting up my shirt.
"Oh whoa, what are you doing-"
"I'm not violating you, you idiot! You'll see." Kyo snapped.
His eyes blazed a white light, and he stood there for a moment, his eyes like that. Then they faded to a brown.
"Yep, triplets alright. Two boys and one girl." Kyo said to Kai.
"It was like he was back under the shade of a tree, instead of out in the sun, so it was hard to see him." Kyo continued.
"Three?" I asked.
"YES, YOU IDIOT!" Kyo snapped.
"Shade...I like that name. Cannon, Ambrosia, Shade." Kai said, as Kyo went back to curling up on the ground.
And that, is when I passed out in Kai's arms, from shock and sleepiness.

Chapter 5

--AARON'S POV--
"Master, my pack is ready to attack." The young beta girl said. She was about 14, maybe 15, and a mirror image of Lexi. I nodded. I had insisted that the main group (my part of the pack) and the betas stay behind, just in case. Almost all of the scattered packs in the state were equipped and ready for the attack, except for the biggest group, the pack that military man runs. They had 500 warriors, so it was natural for them to take longer. I sat in the tactics room, going over the plan with beta girl's pack. I had planned this out strategically.
"So, before you go in, take note on the wind. Do NOT go with the wind, it will make your scent known. Go from behind. I will repeat: Do NOT go with the wind, it will make your scent known. Go from behind. Single in on a target, and go for that one Sysan, until they are dead, then find another. We are looking for two targets: Tobias Freesly, and/or his son, Kaito Freesly. They are the only ones left of the Pride family. Kill them, the Pride will split up, and Chaos will erupt. After that, return here, so we can count casualties. Have I made myself clear?" I said formally.
"Yes, Master!" The group of 100 responded in unison.
"You are dismissed. You will leave tomorrow. Any sick, old, pregnant, pups, or juveniles are to stay here." I said.
The group left, leaving 2 women, 3 babies, a elderly woman, and 3 children under the age of 16, but over the age of 5. One of the juveniles was Delaoh, the other identical twins, one a boy, one a girl.
"I am relying on you to stay here, and keep this place up. My pack will be here to defend, but you will act in charge. Except for you children, you're not in charge." I said.
"AWW!" The 12 year old girl said.
"Don't argue with Master Aaron, he's mean." Delaoh said.
"Oh come on. You remember Delilah, right? She had my baby with her?" I said to him.
Delaoh nodded.
"Well, the Sysans took her, and I'm sorry if I'm grouchy. Truce?" I held out my hand to him.
He shook my hand.
"Truce." He replied.
"You're all dismissed." I replied.
The small group walked out. I slumped down in a chair, my head in my hands.
Delilah...

I thought. I hadn't contacted her since she left, but talking to Delaoh made me in need of a conversation with Delilah.
Aaron...I'm having triplets. Not twins. Tell Tessa she was wrong.

Delilah said. I'm fine. Don't worry, I'm still on both sides, I freaked out when Kai THREATENED TO KILL COCO.

I sighed. I had missed the sound of her voice. I replied quickly.
Okay. I'm not pissed off at you. Imma kill that son of a bitch, Kaito. Those are the only children he'll ever have with you.

Delilah laughed.
You're just jealous, since you made one, he made three.

Delilah laughed.
I blushed.
THAT IS NOT IT!

I replied.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.

She said.
Hey, I planned to stay faithful while you were gone, god, I'm not a whore anymore.

I said.
Um...I have a comeback for that, but who knows whose listening in on our inner dialogue.

Delilah said. And, ew, god.

I grinned, walking out of the room.
"Hey, Aaron, war isn't that fun, so who did you violate?" Shane teased.
"No one. I got contact with Lys. She's the same." I said.
"Hey master, how are you?" Chalice said mockingly. Her stomach was bloated, total sign of a human carrying wolf babies.
"Good, except that we're at war, and my mate's gone, along with my baby girl." I said.
"Can you talk to Lys Bear for me? I would do it myself, but I'm not a telepath." Chalice said.
"Sure, what sup?" I asked her, sitting on the couch.
"Delilah promised me she'd tell me yay or nay on names, since we're like sisters. And I can't really talk to her, so I was wondering if you could ask her what she thinks of the two names I picked out." Chalice said shyly.
"You're lucky I'm alpha, most packs, only the Alpha pairs can breed." I said. "But what names did you pick?"
"Caleb and Chloe, Arabelle and
