When I went to the dining hall Osiris, Beta Neron, Jean and Dionne were all sitting around and chatting. I knew Osiris was happy to have some family back and I really hoped they wouldn’t do anything to hurt him. I needed to tell him what Rose told me though, we needed to find out more about those fa
Osiris’ pov Lily was raging beside me, clearly pissed that I let Neron and Jean off so easily. Santos was equally pissed and trying to take over “they hired the rogues. They hired Arden. If it wasn’t for them our mate wouldn’t have been taken. They killed our pack members!” I tried to calm Santos d
Lily’s pov I was glad Dionne said yes, even though it was super awkward at first. I had just threatened her son and Osiris had banished him and stripped him of his title. I knew she understood why Osiris made this decision, but it must be hard for her. Everywhere we walked people stared at us, some
Osiris’ pov Goddess, how I hate numbers. Riker is meticulous with our finances and he makes sure everything is easy for me to find. He has excel sheets and diagrams, everything to make it effortless for me. It is not that I don’t know how to do this, Beta William taught me when my parents died. I j
Osiris’ pov “Alpha Osiris there is a large group of near the border. We are trying to keep them from escaping, but there are too many of them.” I knew Lily and Dionne would follow me wherever I headed so I ran to the location where my soldiers were as fast as possible. A group of wolves was fightin
Lily’s pov After Osiris finally put me down I dried off and put some clothes on. We had skipped dinner to fight and the apple pies were still in the kitchen. “All you think about is food,” Arya joked. I laughed “I can’t help it if the food here is so bland. I was finally able to eat something with
After eight orgasms Osiris finally thought it was enough and we slept in each other’s arms. When I woke up I mindlinked Emma, seeing Osiris with his family made me miss my own and my pack. She was happy to hear from us, she had heard from Jara about some of the wounded soldiers and the fight last ni
Osiris’ pov It’s been two weeks since we’re back at the Iron River pack. Like Emma suggested we asked my grandmother if she wanted to help us run the Midnight Blood pack in our absence. She accepted, but only if she could get the help from Neron and Jean. Dionne really seems to trust them, but I ju
I noticed Cyrus wasn't swearing because all the kids were here. I knew it was hard for him to keep the fucks in. Jara smiled, “when I came out, I was so nervous. My parents always raised us to accept everyone, but what if the pack didn’t accept me? But my little brother Riker was perfect. He told m
The end. Lily’s pov It has been a year since Riker died. Mia is moving out next month and Damian and Kane will move in. Things are changing, life is moving on. But tonight we are looking back. Remembering Riker and the impact he had on our lives. Osiris had invited everyone that was important to
Osiris’ pov “I think you should make Damian the official Beta. He’s been doing Riker’s job for almost a year now and he deserves it.” Lily said. I shook my head, “it feels wrong. And what will happen to Mia and the kids? They’ve grown up here.” Lily sighed, “you know what’s wrong? Not rewarding D
Cyrus’ pov “Dad, I know you have a brother and a niece, uncle Joshua and Melanie. But any more family, I should know of. I have to make this fucking family tree.” Leia said. “Language.” April yelled from across the room. I still sometimes spoke to my brother, Josh and Melanie, but not as often as
Mia’s pov “Mom can you tell us again how you and dad met?” Sierra asked me. She and Roman looked at me filled with anticipation. I had promised I would tell them about Riker and me. What he was like when he was younger and how everything started. I had been avoiding it. Scared it would make me cry
Osiris’ pov “So what was the first time you felt like something was your fault?” Was I really doing this? Going to therapy? I thought I could just talk to Lily and Cyrus, but they seemed to think I need more help. That it’s not just Riker’s death, but everything that happened. I don’t mind therapy
Cyrus’ pov “I have barely seen him now, for three weeks. He works and then at night he goes out and patrols. He didn’t even attend the funeral. I am so worried.” “Luna Lily, I’m sure he’s okay. He’s just dealing with Beta Riker’s death in a different way.” April said, trying to calm Lily down. Li
Lily’s pov Once Asher was asleep, I got dressed and went downstairs. Mia had broken the news to Roman and everyone was crying. Sierra was still covered in blood and staring ahead. “How can I help?” I asked Arya. “Maybe that’s what you should ask Mia? See how you can help?” Arya advised. Mia was
“No Ashie. No Ashie. You’re not weak. It’s okay.” I felt thorn. I didn’t know if I needed to go help Mia and Sierra, or go home with my boy. Or go and look for Osiris. I took Asher’s hand in mine and we walked back to Mia. Jara was there, apparently Mia had mindlinked her. “Okay, Mia has someone
