I swallowed the lump that was forming in my throat. “Having kids apparently makes you very emotional.” Santos joked, lightening the mood for me. Lily held Asher in her arms, taking advantage of this moment to give him some attention. She is such a good mother. We all ate dinner together, like one
Jayden’s pov I still feel guilty for leaving my brother behind. Angelina helped him by sending his boyfriend to the Iron River pack, but I had such a hard time not following my dad’s commands. I just wanted to make him proud and be the strong Alpha he is. When Damian was beaten half to death, I re
“In a few days’ time we will finally take over the Iron River pack and I will prove myself worthy to be the next Alpha. When I gain the favor of the pack, they’ll won’t mind if I kill you and take your Luna as my own. I need a mate anyway, after I killed mine.” So Angelina was still alive! I didn’t
Charlotte’s pov Dad and I were heading to the Silver Heart pack for a surprise visit. Beta Tyrion couldn’t turn down an Alpha visit, not from an ally. It was bad form to come over announced, but we were family, so the circumstances were different. I was really anxious and Erica was helping me stay
“Luna Angelina is on bed rest at the moment. She is pregnant and has been having a really though time. She asked not to be disturbed.” My father mindlinked me, “did you know she was pregnant?” I shook my head and looked at him, “no, it must be really early in the pregnancy. Maybe she wanted to sur
“You bastards.” Beta Tyrion said before he growled and shifted. When we had the meeting yesterday we all fought over who would be the one to end Tyrion. Osiris wanted to do it, but he was too big to fit inside the trunk of the car. Gamma Jara and Emma were both eager, but we eventually decided it s
Osiris’ pov I took some of my soldiers, Damian and the ones Edward brought and found a spot where the border was weak. We didn’t have to kill anyone on border patrol, because one of the soldiers on watch was an old friend of Damian. When we told him why we were here, he not only let us through, but
Lily’s pov Life with two kids was a lot different than with one. How did my parents do this? Osiris was gone one day and already I was freaking out. I was trying to nurse Kate, while Asher kept wanting my attention. I had a tough time keeping my eyes open for most of the day and I had to watch out
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
