I stared at the photo in my hand. That was our baby. Lily got off the bed and stood in front of me. “Osiris I promise to do everything I can to protect this baby. I will follow all the doctor’s recommendations and I will even let someone follow me around if we’re outside of the pack. But when we’re
Lily’s pov Osiris and I have been back to normal ever since that doctor’s visit. Well, maybe not normal. Because as soon as my second trimester started my hormones caused me to become more horny than usual and I’ve been craving Osiris’ touch non-stop. At first he was scared that he would hurt me or
He mindlinked me “you made the same look at the food as you do when you’re looking at me.” This time I giggled, “well you are a tasty little snack.” Osiris pouted “little?” Dionne said something to us, which made us stop mind linking each other and focus. “I asked would you like to see the new b
Lily’s pov I’ve been hanging back at the packhouse while Osiris goes through the finances with Neron before we leave. After taking a short nap I went down and talk to Jean. She had changed a lot since my first visit here, she seems less tense and scared. She has really opened up to me how it has be
Dinner was great and I didn’t eat three deserts, I ate like five. Every time I grabbed another desert Osiris started to giggle. He hid his laugh behind his hands, but I could see the sparks in his eyes. The chef had really done a great job, I was so full that I wasn’t sure what part of my stomach wa
Osiris’ pov Everything between me and Lily has been great, like really good. I still find it hard at times to let go, I’m imagining all the things that could go wrong or could hurt Lily and the baby. Especially now that she’s passed the halfway point. I know it’s much harder for her than it is for
Lily’s pov Osiris had asked, well demanded that Jara and Emma stay at the packhouse with me. Meadow was still staying at the packhouse and Mia had to work, so she couldn’t join Riker. So we had a packhouse filled with girls. After dinner Emma surprised us all with someone who came by to give us mas
Osiris’ pov “I am going to kill them all” I shouted. Perhaps I didn’t needed to say this out loud, I was currently having dinner in the dining hall with half of the pack. I stood up, ready to shift, when Riker stopped me. “What is going on? What do you need?” I growled “I am going back home now, yo
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
