After yesterday's water fight, we decided to dry off and order stuff online, paying extra for it to be fast delivered in the next three days. All for Jack. Who helped pick out his theme for his room. Which would be next to Ben's Incase he needed anything.

I left Jack in Ben's care for the day, a so had some things I needed to do at my own house, my sister having called me and told me about some movement in an enemy of her new family and of our owns.

But first, the knomes.

I sighed as I stepped into my garden seeing some of my plants thriving more then they should be. Which I guess I was grateful for but now for these pests. I rolled up my sleeves and grabbed out a clear crystal wand out, my eye lingering on the string of bright blue soul strand. Then my eyes went over to a hissing sound and I rolled my eyes at the creature before me, before slicking my wand and having it poor away.

"This is going to be a long day..." I said to my self as more of the knomes, of bared their tiny pointed teeth to me as their eyes glowed red. "A very, very long day..."

*****

"Hold on, you what?" I practically snarled through the receiver.

"Don't get angry! I just...need help one how you get it off his skin?" Ben said as he seemed a little freaked out.

I held my fingers to my nose as I breathed in deeply as I tried to not get to angry at the news that Jackson was now painted purple with permanent marker. "Just get some soap and rub it in, if that doesn't work then make sure he takes baths every night. It should come out in the next few days." I said sighing.

"Thanks Dimitri. Hey what are you doing right now?" Ben asked as I heard him shuffling around and Jackson yelling about some show.

I paused, looking to the mess in front of me, glass shards of different colors and some glass arms trying and failing to get away. "Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Why?" I asked before kicking said arm pack into the burning blue flames.

I heard a thump before he answered. "I was wondering about the secretary thing. About who were getting next?" He asked.

"I'll be hiring a male. And then you can have fun hearing us each morning." I smirked.

Groaning Ben responded. "Nooo, please D, let me have my usual fun."

I rolled my eyes. "No." I glanced to see someone familiar driving into my driveway. "Look Ben I've got to go, remember you can bring Jackson to work tomorrow, I am not opposed to having him around."

"Your no fun. But okay whatever, see you in the morning....like a normal person. Bye." He sighed out.

"Bye..." I said as I slowly hung up as I watched the large male of a man come stalking towards me.

This man was my sisters husband. Alec Whitman. He was tall and lanky but muscular as he worked out a lot to keep his family and pack safe. I swear he used to be this stick of a boy before he started to man up. He had a nice beard and mustache thing going, and it was red unlike his dark brown hair. His steel grey eyes always filled with soft wisdom and happiness. It suited him.

"Well if it isn't a rare occurrence of seeing an Alpha away from his family on a full moon." I said with a smirk and he smiled at me before he grabbed me in a huge hug.

"You are family Dimitri." He said softly as he released me.

I smiled, "I guess so. But that's not the reason you are here is it?" I asked him as I looked to the ashes of glass knomes.

"Unfortunately, it isn't..." he said softly.

I sighed this time before whipping my wand out and cleaning my mess up before walking towards my house. "Come on. You can explain to me what's going on over a cup of coffee. As I'm sure it's going to make me exhausted just hearing about what's happening."

Alec chuckled. "It sure will."

I opened the door to my house and moved to let him in. Before closing the door I looked up at the full moon, frowning as my guts were telling me, lost of things were going to happen in such a short amount of time.

And I wasn't going to like any of it.

But I guess being who I am, I'm going to be smack dab in the middle of it.

With a slam, my door was closed.
