Third Person's POV As Brian came out of the bathroom, River sat up and rubbed his eyes. River’s beautiful blue eyes blinked as his mate came into focus. Brian smiled at the adorable Omega and approached the bed. Brian sat down on the bed and pulled River into his lap. The Delta 1 buried his face in the Omega's neck and took a deep breath in, wanting to smell his mate one more time before he headed off to work. River was still not used to his mate’s affection and his body stiffened when he was first lifted into Brian's lap. But Brian’s gentle touch, the way his arms snaked around River’s body and pulled him close, had the Omega relaxing in an instant and he wrapped his arms around Brian’s neck. The Omega pressed his face into his mate's neck and his nose quickly found his scent gland. River smiled as he took a deep breath in and he felt Rain rolling over in his head and baring his belly. Brian pulled back and looked at the Omega as he brushed his hair away from his forehead.
Third Person's POV River couldn't stop looking at himself in the mirror. New clothes! And not just any new clothes, clothes his mate bought for him. The Omega ran his fingers through his hair, straightening it out before running his hand down his new shirt. Brian stepped out of the closet and paused when he saw the Omega was still looking at himself in the mirror. The Omega was still in awe over the new clothes that he got for him after work. The Delta 1 had never seen anyone so excited over new clothes before. As cute as it was, it also broke Brian's heart. "You look good!" Brian said and the Omega startled as he jumped and spun around. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you," Brian said as he grabbed his phone and slipped it in his pocket. "It's ok. I didn't know you were there." River blushed, embarrassed for being so jumpy. Brian walked to the window and looked out before facing his mate again. "Ready to go? It looks like everyone's here." Brian said, and the Omega qui
Third Person's POV Atticus opened the door and his chest tightened when he saw Harris standing on the other side of the door. Atticus didn't know what to say... He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, he would regret what came out. "What happened? What's going on?" Harris asked, and Atticus laughed as he shifted his weight. His laugh became louder and he ran his hand down his face. Atticus turned away from Harris, he had to. His anger was rising. How can his own mate set him up? Atticus was beginning to wonder how much of his story was true. Did Harris' first mate really do what he claimed, or did he kill Brody in cold blood? "You have some fucking nerves asking me what's going on!" Atticus said angrily as Harris stepped into his room. Harris closed the door behind him and approached his mate. "Atticus, what are you talking abou-" Harris' words were cut off as Atticus turned and slammed him against the wall, bringing his face in front of his mate's face. Harris was conf
Third Person's POV "Um, you know what, why don't we go visit Malaki? We can see if your Brothers and fathers want to go for a run with us at home." Noah said as he ran his hands down his son's arms and then took his hands, squeezing them. Jace's face lit up, he loved that idea. Noah smiled and tapped his cheeks "Hey Silas, why don't you take us and you can visit your boyfriend?" Noah said as he looked over his shoulder at the tall vampire and wiggled his eyebrows. Silas's eyes widened, his mouth opened before closing and pressing his lips together, glaring at the little fluffy shit. "He is not my boyfriend! A brother, yes! But my boyfriend, never!" "I get to rub your belly the whole way there!" Noah said excitedly as he stared at Ian's incredibly large belly. "Just be careful! He only has a week to go!" "You do realize I've had five of my own. I'm quite sure I know how to rub a pregnant belly by now!" Noah frowned at the overly protective vampire while hooking his arm
Third Person's POV Harris stayed in human form as long as he could but the enemy kept coming. He was outnumbered, and his men were dropping like flies. The Alpha ignores the pain he feels as each member dies, and he ignores the pain from wounds he sustained. Harris doesn't know who these people are, but they're not rogues, it's another pack, two of them. Harris turns around as another wave of enemies approaches. As he looks at the line of enemies, his stomach drops when his eyes land on two familiar faces. Brody's father laughs as he steps forward with Alpha William at his side. "Well, well, well... You're not so tough without your allies and magical friends, are you?" Brody's father looked at William before they both looked at Harris with an evil grin. "What are you doing? Your son challenged me. That was a legal fight! You're not allowed to seek revenge." "Who said I'm seeking revenge? All they're going to know is that I'm here to help my friend, Alpha William. You stole
Third Person's POV Annabelle, Ron, Nick, and Austin stayed near the pack house, fighting off the enemies alongside Harris' men. They were thankful their weak members were allowed to hide in the bunkers. But as the fight raged, they became scared when they realized the pack was being overrun. The enemy just kept coming, and Harris' men were falling. The team of four blood ran cold when their eyes landed on a familiar face as he emerged from the tree line. Ron pulled Annabelle behind him as the person that destroyed their pack approached with a sinister grin on his face. "William!" Annabelle whispered as she gripped Ron's back. There he was, the asshole himself who's been hunting them down, slowly killing what's left of their pack after destroying it. Alpha William laughs as he walks forward, stepping away from Brody's father when he realized who's been hiding in this pack. "Well isn't this a pleasant surprise! I get to kill two birds with one stone! How about that!" Atti
Third Person's POV Atticus hears a groan and he turns, taking Harris out of Asher's arms, and placing him into his arms in an instant. The smaller Alpha groans as he moves his head. Atticus' heart beats faster, anticipating those beautiful brown eyes to open. The larger Alpha's heart skips a beat when those eyes finally open. Harris blinks his eyes until his mate's face comes into focus. The smaller Alpha takes a breath in as he looks at Atticus. Harris brings his hand to Atticus' face as he searches his eyes. His heart skips a beat when flames flicker in the larger Alpha's eyes, and he can smell the scent of ash. "Draven!... You're so beautiful!" Harris said softly as he looked into those eyes of flames. A rumble rose from the larger Alpha's chest and he closed his eyes as he pressed their foreheads together. "My beautiful mate! I love you!" Draven's deep, thick voice spoke to his mate. The Alpha's body became warmer, much warmer, and the scent of ash became even thicker w
Third Person's POV Tristan turned around and saw his mate staring at him. The smaller Beta looked down and began dragging his toe through the dirt nervously, afraid to look at Cyrus. The larger Beta came closer, fingers gently gripping Tristan's chin, lifting his face, forcing the smaller Beta to look at Cyrus. When Tristan's eyes met Cyrus', he did the only thing he could think of, he flashed his pearly whites, "Hi!" Cyrus raised an eyebrow, somehow that reminded him of Brian. "Little mate-" "Hey, I'm not that little! Just because you're incredibly large, doesn't mean I'm little! I'm... Average!" Tristan said, folding his arms over his chest and grinning. Cyrus' lips tugged up and Tristan squeaked as he was suddenly lifted and crushed against a rock-hard chest. "You're cute!" Cyrus said as he buried his face in his mate's neck and took a deep breath in. Tristan melted in Cyrus' arms and his head dropped to his mate's neck. "We'll talk about that secret of yours later, b
Third Person’s POV The sound of Evelyn's laughter rings out. The little Omega covers her mouth while she laughs at the icing all over Nadja's face. The Elder was taken off guard this time. Evelyn didn't give him a chance to anticipate what was coming. She simply called his name and when the elder turned she stuffed a cupcake into his face. As shocked as Nadja was, the beautiful sound of her laughter was worth it. He sat there for a moment before bringing the napkin in his lap to his face. Evelyn continued to laugh as she stood up and took the napkin from Nadja. The Omega sat sideways on his lap as she cleaned the icing from his face. After wiping the icing from his eyes they fluttered open and Evelyn froze, her breath caught and her heart skipped a beat for the first time. Nadja froze when he heard her heart skip. For a moment the Elder couldn't move. After a moment Nadja reached up and took the napkin with one hand while bringing his left hand to her creamy white cheek. “Thank y
Third Person's POV Grayson laughed as he ran from his growling brother. Ezra didn't find it funny when his brother froze his entire bowl of soup as he dug his spoon into it. The little King tried to ignore his brother as he brought his cup of juice to his mouth just to have the frozen contents slide out and hit his nose. Ezra growled as he reached out and shocked Grayson. The Future Alpha King yelped and then took off running with Ezra hot on his tail. Silas ran his hand down his face as he watched the two brothers chase each other around the yard. Grayson, now 10, created a snowball in his hand and threw it at his brother, hitting him square in the nose. This only infuriated Ezra and the 8-year-old thrust his hands forward, shocking Grayson. Grayson grunts as his body falls to the ground mid-sprint. Grayson blinks his eyes just in time to see Ezra lunging for him. His eyes widened as he tried to roll away but he was too late. The younger brother landed on top of Grayson and quickl
Third Person's POV It's been 5 years since Harris had their first child. A year and a half later their son Niles was born. He's an omega, a dragon/werewolf hybrid at the curious age of 3 and 1/2. Atticus doesn't know if they'll have any more kids. But his heart is content knowing he and his mate brought two dragons into this world. Not only that, they honored his Father and the Dad he had for such a short time. Michael got over his anger with Noah removing his tubes rather quickly. Asher on the other hand had to keep his walls up constantly. Onyx was devastated. He had hoped for more children, even though Noah expressed his desire not to have anymore. Onyx couldn't wrap his head around why Noah would take something like that from him. He didn't understand it, even after Asher's explanation. Onyx wished he would have kept a closer eye on Noah. The Alpha wolf was adamant that he would have never let the Omega take something like that from him. The Alpha wolf was so angry at Noah, tha
Third Person's POV Xavier stuck the bottle into the warmer and nervously glanced at Theo. The Omega rocked back and forth as Vivian fed from him. Damien was out cold on the couch due to Vivian having a hard time sleeping last night so the Beta was up with her. Xavier scratched the back of his neck as he struggled to find words for the Omega. He felt beyond guilty for the thoughts that went through his head at the hospital, and for the way he snapped at Theo when he asked a simple question about their child's name. Xavier hated the thoughts that went through his head when he felt Damien die and he hated that those thoughts didn't go away while he waited for Damien to wake up. The Alpha wasn't sure what to say, or how to make amends, or how to make things right again. Xavier wished Theo would be mad at him. He wanted the Omega to lash out, shout at him, yell, scream, or hit him. He felt he deserved it and so much more. After laying Vivian in her swing, Theo went back into the kit
Third Person's POV Xavier can't feel anything beyond the excruciating pain of the broken mate bond, and his broken heart. He can't even bring himself to comfort his hurt omega who is curled up in the fetal position on the floor next to him, sobbing uncontrollably. As much as he loves Theo, the Alpha can't function without his Beta who saved him all those years ago. Damien was the very air he breathed. His heart feels like it was ripped from his chest. He doesn't want to live without Damien. The Alpha's head reels as he feels the death of his little mate, and he can't figure out how to go on without him. Xavier sucks in a breath before leaning forward and screaming. Spit connects his lips as he screams while tears flow down his face and drip from his chin. The doctor works fast trying to stop the bleeding and clear out as much blood as he could so he could see. With the baby out, the doctor pulls the top of the uterus out and is shocked at how thin and weak it is. It's practically
Third Person's POV Harris slowly breathed as he held his stomach. Another nurse burst into the room and quickly began asking Harris questions. Harris almost felt dizzy with how fast everything was moving. One moment they were in the backyard relaxing, the next minute Finn was in labor, then Damien, and now he might be as well. It was all too much, too soon. Harris wasn't ready. What if they didn't have everything they needed? What if he messes up? What if he isn't good enough, and fails at being a Dad? What if it isn't a dragon, and he fails to give Atticus what he has been hoping for? Harris blinks his eyes several times and a face inches from his own comes into view. Harris realizes Atticus is holding his face. “Stop!... Everything is going to be just fine! We have everything we need and so much more. Of course, we're both going to mess up, but we're going to learn from our mistakes and do better. We're not perfect, no one is! But you will never fail at being a dad! You are going
Third Person's POV “My water broke!” Addison took a sharp breath in as Maddox rushed forward, scooping his mate into his arms and praying his little angel didn't sneeze again. No one had to say anything, it was like they worked as one mind as everyone rushed through the pack house and out the front door. The sound of two engines roared to life as the vehicles sped out racing towards the hospital. “How are you feeling? Are you in any pain?” Addison asked as she adjusted Lucian's legs over her lap. “No, not yet. Just a little discomfort in my back.” Lucian said and then slowly exhaled as his stomach became tight. Addison looked between Finn's stomach that was exposed and his face. “How bad was that one?” Addison asked when Finn's body relaxed. “Not that bad. It's just a little stronger than the Braxton Hicks.” Finn said as he rubbed his belly. The Omega closed his eyes and leaned back against Maddox as Addison caressed his stomach. Addison looked into Maddox's eyes and could
Third Person's POV As Atticus steps out the back door he breathes a sigh of relief seeing the many heaters on the patio. Fall has just arrived and Harris can't stand the cold. Dragons prefer very warm temperatures, but little dragons need and crave the heat even more. Harris' body is responding to the growing dragon in his womb, reacting as if he himself was a dragon. The smaller Alpha wears a sweater during the day while everyone else is wearing t-shirts. In the evening he snuggles inside a warm thick coat while everyone else is simply wearing long-sleeved shirts. Draven doesn't mind, in fact he loves it. He's a proud mate and father, ever protective and attentive. Their apartment is never below 78, and whenever they're snuggling or sleeping, Draven heats Atticus' body, warming their mate and growing hatchling. Addison holds the door open and watches each Alpha carefully lead their very pregnant mate out of the back door and onto the patio. Damien winces and Xavier is immediately co
Third Person's POV Harris swears his stomach wasn't this big yesterday. He feels like his stomach doubled in size overnight. Even though he's now five months pregnant, Harris was before somewhat able to hide it with large baggy shirts, but now there's no way for the Alpha to hide his ever growing abdomen. The car comes to a stop and Harris dreads stepping out of it. Especially since their little town seems so active right now. There are tons of people walking up and down the sidewalk, coming and going from each shop. Harris' hand protectively rests against his stomach, trying to hide his pregnancy. Harris nibbles on his lip before turning to look at his Alpha. “You know, we don't have to go shopping today. And, I can just get something to eat at home. Why don't we just go back!” Harris was hoping to change Atticus' mind, but the larger Alpha simply gave him a soft smile before climbing out of the car. “Damn it!” Harris cursed as he turned and looked out the window, watching all t
