When I wake up the next morning, the bed feels empty and Roman's scent is faint. I groggily open my eyes, and confirm he is indeed not in bed with me. I'm confused for a moment before the smell of bacon reaches my nostrils. I sit up in disbelief, there is no way the big bad Alpha is cooking me breakfast. I throw one of his shirts on and walk downstairs. My eyes widen at the sight before me. He's standing shirtless at the stove, a dish towel thrown over his shoulder, a pile of pancakes and bacon next to him, Red Hot Chili Peppers is playing on the speaker and he's singing along. I admire the sight, how long did the Goddess have to spend sculpting this man to perfection for me?

"You know you're supposed to have a shirt on when you cook, right?" I tease him as I walk up to him and wrap my arms around him

"Good morning to you too, and that rule is for humans who cry over a little tiny grease splatter burning them." he says leaning down and kissing me

    We spent 8 days at the cottage, the extra day happening after Amara used her tears and a couple other parts of her to convince me to stay. But unfortunately, we have to get back to regular life. Aston, of course, whined like a little baby whenever I told him we were staying one more day. We spent pretty much the entire 8 days having sex, and occasionally Amara would train. She actually would execute anything I had her do perfectly, so in reality we could have dived a little deeper into the training, if we hadn't gotten distracted. Yeah, we might have ended up fucking in the backyard a couple times. Now, after the run back, we're just walking into the packhouse"I'm gonna go find Violet! I'll stop by your office after." Amara says to me and kisses me quickly before running off. Ok then, I guess she isn't too upset about coming home. I chuckle and walk into my office.My eyes nearly jump out of my head when I see the pile of paperwork sitting on my desk. Fucking Aston! Did h

    My face is drained of color, and I feel dizzy. He knew, he knew without me even looking at him. So that means anyone else who knew about this prophecy or whatever would know, just by looking at me. I must sway on my feet a little bit because Roman pulls me to his lap. I take a couple deep breaths to calm myself, trying to keep my voice from breaking."How did you know?" I ask"Your aura. I've never seen anything like it. Fae can read auras, it's like a 6th sense in a way. Yours screams power, royalty, darkness, light, chaos..." Thayer says, pausing to think before continuing "I think it's safe to say any fae would know what you were. As for other species I cannot say. You've been a whispered legend for over a millenia, there's literature as I said, but some think it's a fairytale. The vampires have had quite some time to think about how and what they will do with you, them wanting you isn't exactly a secret. The vampire king reached out to me, asking for the Fae's legends

    There's a second of awkward silence as Amara exits the room. I refrain from letting out a sigh, trying to maintain my mask of indifference. I know she's going to try and forget her problems by sleeping, but we have to face this head on. I'll talk to her. Hopefully Sophie will help too. I don't really know what to say to make it better, my mate she may be but I still have a lot to learn about her."Forgive her, she's overwhelmed easily by all this, as I'm sure you can imagine" I tell Thayer"Of course. It would certainly be a shock to me if I woke up one day and found out all this information. I'll have one of my men transport my books to you as soon as I arrive home. We will be leaving later tonight so expect them tomorrow morning." Thayer says, getting out of his seat.I simply nod as he lets himself out, finally allowing that heavy sigh out. We have quite a long road ahead of us it seems. I look at Cici, Violet, and Serena who are all looking at me expectantly, so I

    I'm, quite violently, woken up by a familiar voice yelling at me and then jumping on top of me. It takes me a minute before realization dawns on me and then I'm squealing."What are you doing here?! How?!" I yell as I push Sophie off of me, sit up, and then tackle her again in another hug"Your grumpy Alpha asked me to come a couple days ago. Oh by the way, he definitely thinks I'm an idiot. I blubbered the whole way up the stairs. I don't know how you're not scared of him, he's a lot more intimidating in person. Which is saying something because the idea of him was already pretty freaking scary." she says"I've told you a million times he's a softie, and I probably put him in a bad mood because I may or may not have thrown a hissy fit before I came up here." I say and cringe"Girl, what did you do?" Sophie says rolling her eyes and laying down next to me on Roman's side. I stifle a growl that she is laying in my mates scent. She rolls her eyes, and punche

    To no surprise, Violet and Sophie immediately became best friends-Selene save us all. We did some walking around the shops, but with winter coming in hot we decided to just go to a restaurant for some drinks. After having a teeny tiny bit too much to drink and walking home-not even feeling the bite of the cold, we're now sprawled across the living room. My legs are draped across Roman's lap and Sophie's head in mine with the rest of her perpendicular to me on the chaise. Seth and Gemma are in the loveseat, Cici and Aston on the floor, while Violet is sitting on her mate, Blue. Max and Serena opted out of hanging out with us, saying they had their own plans. If I thought Roman was serious and brooding, those two put his ice-cold exterior to shame."Blue, when are you going to tell us your real name?" I ask her suddenly, taking a sip of my wine I've been nursing. We only call her Blue, but when Aston so gracefully asked what kind of name that was, she simply told us it was a nick

    I want to stand up, but I know my knees will wobble. So I stay sitting, focusing on my mate's and my soul sister's touch to keep me grounded. Roman must mindlink everyone except Seth and Sophie to leave, because everyone gets up and quickly evacuates the living room. Honestly, I barely notice. I'm still staring at the man who I'm supposed to call dad, and trying not to fall into the abyss of my emotions while I do so."I..." I start to say but trail off, not really knowing where I was going with it, but I feel like I need to speak. I didn't really expect it to be this emotional, ignorantly I guess. In the abstract, it was much easier to think about him. But with him, my father, standing here in front of me, reminding me that I have a parent who's alive, is bringing up so many feelings.Stupid, stupid feelings. I don't know a damn thing about him. He could be a sadist, he could be a homophobe, he could hate women. I mean, he's the demon overlord from the underworld,

    In all honesty, the rest of the night was fun. After I introduced everyone, who thankfully already were briefed on the circumstances, My father didn't contribute a whole lot of conversation, he was just observing, and if roles were reversed I would have stayed quiet too. He did talk here and there though, not enough for me to learn much about him. Nonetheless, I felt lighter having him there. I guess I didn't realize I expected him to be nothing short of a monster. I had just shown Sophie and my father to their rooms, and now Roman and I were walking up to ours."So today was certainly...a day" he says"Today was the equivalent of 4 days" I sigh"How are you doing, feeling?" he says, taking my hand in his and kissing my knuckles, I smiled despite what was about to come out of my mouth"I think I'm just trying to process it. It's not like it was a shock that he showed up, I'm just surprised that I was so emotional over it, you know? I didn't really expect to feel

    We take our table numbers and I lead him outside to a more secluded area. I don't plan to hide what I am from the pack, but I'd rather not start rumors before Roman and I can even announce it. Although, I'm marked by their Alpha, so I can sense the confusion when they feel that power radiating off me, mixed with their Alpha's scent. Well, I guess that cat's out of the bag."So Seth is your only living family?" my dad says as we sit down"Yes, that I know of anyways. Both my parents died in a vampire attack, and their parents died before that. Both were only children. Do you have any family in the underworld? Did you take another mate after my mother?""I had two children prior to meeting your mother. You have a sister and a brother, your sister is my heir to the throne. As for family, my mother is still alive, and I have 4 siblings, you likely won't meet them. And no, I haven't and don't plan to take another mate. I have my heir, and your mother was the only queen my

  • Be my Alpha   Epilogue

    Surrounded by Violet, Serena, Cici, and Sophie, I look at myself in the mirror as Aylin finishes my makeup and Gemma does my hair. Aylin must hold more magic than I thought because she managed to cover up these bags under my eyes. I almost look like I did pre-motherhood, minus the breast pump milking me like a cow. Remind me why I insisted on having my Luna ceremony, the equivalent of my wedding, after I had Delaney? Because I wanted to drink at my own ceremony? It seemed so logical at the time. Now, I wanted to go back in time and slap me upside the head, Aylin style. Delaney screams in Sophie's arms in protest at how long it's taking me to pump. In the hospital, the nurses and pediatrician on the postpartum unit said she lost too much weight by the time she was 24 hours old. It was before my milk supply came in, so they put it down to lack of production, but when I filled up a syringe with colostrum, they had a lactation consultant come see me. She had said Delaney's latch wasn't ef

    Three weeks laterI breathe through another contraction. They're coming every five minutes now, but I didn't exactly feel like going to the hospital just to be sent home for another false alarm like I did last week.'Uh, you going to explain why I feel like I'm being ripped apart from the inside every five minutes for the last two hours?' I hear Roman's voice come through my head as I feel the contraction start to come down'It's still early labor, probably. No sense in going to the hospital yet, if it even is actual labor.' I tell him'Alright, well, I'm coming back in and getting the hospital bag, so we're ready. The books said once they're every five minutes, we should think about heading in,' he reminds me.I don't respond just as I'm hit with another contraction and suddenly feel like I peed myself. Oh, good Goddess, here we go. I put my walls up so he doesn't have to feel anything.'Scratch that, my water just broke,' I say, and not even twenty se

    One week laterThat's precisely what we did. We had funerals for those that wanted their loved ones buried and ceremonies for those who opted for them to be burned on pyres. Aston, being a ranked member, was burned on a pyre with the entire pack present. We put some of his ashes in an urn necklace for CiCi and then released him into the river.While I've seen Roman tear up, or get choked up, that night, he cried with his head in my lap. He fell asleep after hours, and I didn't dare move a muscle all night. My heart was already broken for him; Aston was Roman's Sophie, but something about seeing my brooding Alpha mate break down like that killed a piece of me.CiCi wasn't doing any better; one of us was still with her almost all the time. I spent a couple nights with her, but mostly Serena was staying with her since they were always connected at the hip anyways. It was an effort to get her to eat or even go outside, but I wouldn't give up on her; both she and Aston des

    Roman's POVI hated battle, but I hated the aftermath even more. I made a list of all the fallen I could identify, so I could visit their families later. The ones I couldn't, their family or packmates who saw them fall would have to report to me, and I'd go from there. Max and Seth took Aston's body to the morgue before we were even back.Fuck that hurt. My best friend since we were in diapers, the one who evened out mine and Max's broody demeanors with his stupid ass jokes. Gone. Fucking gone. What was the point? The point of all this death and destruction?I stopped in my tracks, shutting my eyes as they became glossy. His death will gut me until the day I die. The day I die? I'm immortal. Fuck. I could live another thousand years, and I wouldn't have seen him for over nine hundred and fifty of them. How is that fair? And CiCi. I have yet to find anyone who wasn't of Alpha blood, or royalty in Armaros' case, that lived past the first year of their mate dying. But we

    I watch in horror as Silas grabs Adonis' face, Silas' red eyes glowing into the night, and Adonis...Adonis goes limp. I waste no time before concentrating on Silas' body and start burning him. He screams, and Adonis goes absolutely feral and proceeds to rip his own body apart. I pull my powers back immediately, and they both stop thrashing. Adonis' eyes are glowing red now, and terror, like no other, seizes me when Silas grabs him by both ears, twisting his neck, and Adonis does nothing to fight back.I look to my father, who is holding his own against the group of vampires attacking him, but can't help me or be distracted without risking his own life. Then, I look around for Aylin, Az, Seth, or anyone to jump in and help, but no one is around."No one is coming to rescue you this time, my sweet Amara," Silas hissesI only stare at him and then at my mate. Maybe...maybe...I slam my mental talons into Roman's mind, but he only whimpers and starts to thrash again.

    It's been four days, and Roman's shadows still haven't found any evidence of Silas moving toward his home; it looks like he will be coming to us. He's been rallying all his people into one spot; even people from his kingdom were seen moving out, so everyone is on edge, including me. I suggested moving in once he had them all together, but Roman said it's better to let him think he has the element of surprise, and it will give us the "home-field advantage." I wanted to just get it over with; the stakes are so much higher now. Given that we're unsure if he will lead with those half-Kudde beasts he made, Roman had the security system expanded so my family and I would have time to take off and neutralize that threat.Thayer, Dahlia, and all the troops he planned to send are here. Roman called and updated him on the situation, and he said he'd rather come now if an attack is imminent, so they could get familiar with the land. It was no question whether or not we would be atta

    "Let's hear it then. Start with his kingdom's main territory.""His kingdom is not far from here. While he does have armies there, their numbers could be better, and they're his lowest-ranking soldiers, all of his best he took with him. Since he's been tracking Amara over the last couple of months, his favorite Duke has been in charge over there. Outside the wall of the castle and its main village, you'll find crowded poverty. He allowed his people to starve, telling them it would start wars if we hunted humans, wolves, or fae after they stopped donating blood to us. In reality, he cut off all contact and trade with them, allowing his people to believe they were trying to starve us out. That's how he got most of his willing soldiers initially. From there, he made life for anyone who was his soldier comfortable. If you fought for him, you and your family could move over the wall, where you were given the bare minimum food and housing."The room falls into a disgusted silenc

    I was finally discharged after my next ultrasound. My powers and Tamisra returned about two hours after my first ultrasound, so I insisted I was ready to go home. But considering it was already eight at night, Roman and the nurses convinced me to stay. I'm at least allowed to eat again, and goddess, I'm fucking ravenous. I feel like I can't eat enough. Roman and the nurse, Jess, tried to get me to slow down, but at my ultrasound, Dr. Crowen said as long as I can handle it, I should eat whenever I want to keep up with baby girl's growth rate.Speaking of, she gained another two ounces overnight. It didn't sound like a big deal to me, but I have no knowledge of anything in the medical field. Dr. Crowen said it was very significant, given that wolf pups are expected to gain two ounces weekly at this stage. Everything points to me going into labor at the end of the month, which I don't want to think about.But this isn't exactly something I can just block out. Thankfull

    There's a knock on the door before it opens, and the same person who took me to my MRI, Justin, I think, comes in with a wheelchair. After my MRI, they brought me to a different room with a bigger bed that looked a lot more annoying to move.Honestly, I could have walked. Now that my supernatural healing kicked in, I feel fine. Starving, but fine. The doctors said I have to eat very slowly to get my digestive system working properly again and that if I ate an entire jar of peanut butter like I wanted to, I would just throw it back up immediately and feel like shit. So, my new best friends were crackers with peanut butter and a side of chicken broth."Hello again, Alpha, Luna. Dr. Crowen is ready for you in the ultrasound room," he says as he locks the wheelchair.I sit up and swing my legs around to get out of bed. Immediately, Roman and Seth jump up, trying to help me. I roll my eyes."I told you both, I'm fine!" I say, getting up and sitting in the chair
