Stella POV I sat on the edge of our bed as I finished putting on my socks. Our bags were packed for two nights away from the house. And the kids. We were about to leave for the Alpha meeting. I was glad it was in neutral territory, and not on my old pack lands. I dont think we would have gone if it were. I actually just don't think Trevor would have even let me go if it was. The risk was too high. I was already anxious leaving the babies. We had never left them for more than a couple of hours to sneak away for a quick date night, or even just downstairs to decompress and watch a movie or a football game together without kids pulling, poking or puking. I knew that Trevor could feel my anxiety through the bond, because he kept appearing in the hallway, peaking in, pacing. I stood up slowly, bending down to grab my overnight makeup bag that was sitting by my feet and made my way out into the living room where Trevor and his Dad were waiting on me to leave. "The bottles are in the fridg
"I'm not sure I should let you go down alone looking like that." I teased as Trevor finished buttoning up his dress shirt. He was in navy blue dress slacks and a white shirt with paisley blue design on it with a matching blue tie. The matching sports jacket laid out on the end of the bed. He giggled a little, tightening his belt and coming over to me by the patio door. I had poured myself a glass of red wine and decided I would take a nice bubble bath and catch up on my disgustingly addicting dating shows while he attended to first night of meetings without me. Lunas weren't allowed still. "Promise you won't be out all night again. And if you are, at least give me a heads up? I can't deal with another whiskey hangover." I joked with him. He rolled his eyes. "June will be here in a few minutes." He chimmed, walking back to the bed and grabbing his jacket and throwing it on over his large shoulders. He looked so handsome. The news was a surprise to me. "I didnt want you up here alone.
Trevor POV The night before hadn't gone like I expected it to, but it had all at the same time. I wasn't sure what I would say to Alpha Jones once I had the chance. But, when it arrived, I had decided he didn't deserve to hear a word from me. When he asked me about my children, I almost exploded. Luckily my Father stepped in quickly. Stella spent the morning with June trying on different dresses that she had brought with her, banishing me to my Fathers room while she did. She wanted me to be surprised again. The memory of the last Alpha ball had me sitting on pins and needles, but I wasn't going to admit that to Stella. I wondered if she could feel it through the bond, though. I could always tell when she was upset or scared or anxious, so I'm sure she could as well. "What time are we headed down to the ball?" My Father asked from the sofa he was laying out on, eating a bag of potato chips. Chip crumbs decorated his white tee shirt. "7pm" I mumbled. He sat up, the crumbs that had p
Stella POV Trevor filled me in on the elevator ride up with Jasper and what he had said. We let June and Jasper have a few minutes of privacy as we rode down to the hotel lobby. There were a lot of moving pieces that we didn't know how they would all fit in together just yet. The thought of June moving back to South pack lands had me on edge. She wouldn't want to stay with us any longer, now that she had found her mate. And if they were going public with it tonight, she would have to move in with him pretty quickly. "You look stunning." Trevor twirled the large ring on my finger, running his other hand up the inside of my arm. I leaned into him, resting my head on his shoulder. "Thank you" I whispered. The doors opened and we stepped out to flashes and news crews. It caught me off guard a little. Last year, no press was allowed in. This year obviously was different. Trevor grabbed ahold of my hand tightly and led me through the sea of white flashes. We made our way down the red car
Stella povThe room fell silent. The band stood on the stage, holding their instruments at their sides, looking for a sign whether to start up a new song or not. I kept my focus solely on my Father. He was inching closer, his body stumbling ever so slightly from all the alcohol he had consumed. I could feel the rage flooding through Trevor’s body through the bond. One more move, and he would attack. “You are such a disgrace.” My father hissed through clenched teeth. I stood my ground, not looking away or reacting. He was trying to get a reaction out of me. “We raised you better than this!” He pointed a finger at my alpha. I growled a little, Trevor’s hand gripping my forearm ever so slightly. “You left your pack for a man. You bred for him. Brought pups into a world where their parents don’t belong together. You made a mistake.” “Alpha Jones, I think it’s best you call it a night.” Jasper had made his way off the stage and placed himself between us and my Father. But my Father didn’
Stella pov“Let’s go! Get her in here!” I rushed my large wolf form through the elevator door straight into our suite doors where Collin was standing. He had a doctor ready in the living room. I gently let June down off of my tall back and shifted back quickly. I didn’t care who saw me naked. “What the fuck is going on! Where is Alpha?” Collin spat out as he tossed a blanket at me. I wrapped it around my shoulders and watched intently as the doctor and nurse cleaned out Junes wound quickly. I shrugged.“It went south so fast. He made me leave.” I whispered. Collin noticed the anxiety cross my face as I recalled having to leave him down there. June cried out in pain as they worked. Collin paced back and forth in front of the glass patio doors, his gaze darting between myself and June. “He’ll be fine.” He blurted out, staring at me. I couldn’t respond though. I stood frozen in the blanket, unable to move or speak. “I should go down there..” My eyes slowly moved up to make eye contact
Trevor povThe evening definitely hadn’t gone that way I had hoped. Maybe I was foolish for thinking the Alpha ball was going to happen with no drama. I sprawled my body out on the temperpedic bed, turning the tv on to the news. “They aren’t reporting anything! This is bullshit!” I yelled out to Stella who was washing up in the bathroom. “How can they report on every other fucking thing that happens in our lives, but this? Nah, they’re going to keep quiet.” I rolled my eyes. I heard the bathroom door slide open and rolled to my side, resting my head into my hand. The light switched off and Stella came out. To my surprise though, she wasn’t in her usual boxers and tshirt, but lingerie. Her long hair was hanging to the right side of her face, giving way to her neck on the other side. She was wearing a white corset that stopped right below her breasts, allowing them to bounce lightly with every step. The back was laced all the way up, giving way to a matching pair of lacy crotchless u
Stella POV I knew that my statement had caught Trevor off guard. It was the last thing that I wanted to do, that any of my siblings would want. My Mother was a good woman, a good wolf. She was always caring and understanding with all of us growing up. She was patient when most would have lost their cool. She had risked her life to warn me of my Fathers attack when I was pregnant, before I even knew I was pregnant. In the long run, she would always try and protect her pups, regardless of how old we all were. She had lost two already, and almost a third. Her loss was unmeasurable. I sat wrapped up in a blanket on a chair in the corner of the room, watching a lit candle flicker against the turned off TV. Trevor was fast asleep, legs spread covering most of the king sized bed. My mind was racing, wondering if my Mother was possibly thinking the same thing that I was. Did she know that she had to be sacraficed in order to defeat my Father? Was she still blindly following him even though

Trevor POVThe wedding planner sat at the kitchen island, watching my dad clean up the high chairs. She was short and slightly overweight with a dark bob. She wore black framed glasses and had on a dark blue womens suit with flats. She carried a large box with “ALPHA” written in giant black marker on the side of it. As soon as she heard us come down the hallway, she sprung off the island chair, softening her jacket down and smiled big at us both. “Good morning!” She chirped. I had only spoken to her a hand full of times. Mostly to pay for things and give approval when needed. Stella was handling everything else though. “Hi Mrs.Jordan. I am so sorry to keep you waiting! Crazy morning today!” Stella reached her hand out and shook hers, then motioned for her to sit back down. “I have the final guest list with me today as well as the seating chart. Caterer is all set and so is the DJ.” She smiled as she slid over a few different pieces of paper. It was smaller, with limited guests. But i
