“I just want to be clear,” Leon started to say, “I don’t trust that fucking guy one bit.” Sam had already left along with the remaining members of his pack after they have pledged their loyalty to me. Since I found out that he was seeking refuge in our pack something in me started to feel uneasy. Levi was on the edge since we left the packhouse. I just have to remind him not to cause any trouble that would give Athena any stress. Knowing our Luna’s state and thinking about the safety of our Litlle Wolf was enough to keep Levi’s anger on the leash. But I can feel the strong hatred he has for the guy. Frankly, I feel exactly the same way that he feels. I guess it was one of the reasons why I did not tell Athena everything about the call. “There is another thing that’s bothering me,” Calvin said. He was quiet and calm the whole time that Sam was here but I know that he is studying the scene that was unfolding before him. I also that he was trying to get a vision. “But then again, I d
I know that something is bothering Drake. I can sense it. His conflict, his frustrations, his anger, a bit of jealousy? I also know that he has arrived earlier than the time he had entered the packhouse. I can see the tiredness in his eyes, and I know that the cause was not only because of what was on his mind. But because I know that I was also part of it. He was so worried about my and our Little Wolf’s safety. That is why I stopped being stubborn, well for now. Once we were done with dinner, Drake did his usual routine of making sure that I took a shower or a soak in the bathtub. He knows that I am uncomfortable sleeping if I didn’t take a bath. I love how he was always gentle and caring and how he usually considers Little Wolf in everything that we do. The way he includes our Little Wolf in every conversation and the way he talks to our baby as he promises our Little Wolf everything that he wanted to do with our baby and the things he wanted to give our baby. Yes, Drake is the
It’s been two weeks since Sam moved to Purple Hill. And in those two weeks, Drake stayed at home and worked in his home office. I followed everything that the doctor has advised me to do. I know that we had been cleared a month after my first trimester but Drake was so adamant about my and Little Wolf’s safety that he refused to let me leave the packhouse. I am almost in my sixth month and it definitely showed. My bulging tummy was a big proof that we are expecting. I remember last week when I ended up crying while I was putting all my clothes in the garbage bag because they no longer fit me. Drake found me crying in our walk-in closet with a heap of clothes scattered everywhere, with an almost full black garbage bag in one hand, while I was wearing his t-shirt that felt like a body-fit blouse on me. Yep, I didn’t know I would get so big. The next day, our living room was filled with several racks of maternity clothes and he asked me to take everything that I was comfortable with
It had been three weeks since Mikey visited the packhouse, and nothing big seemed to change. He still greets me and Little wolf each morning. And every afternoon he waits with me until Nori arrives whenever he’s late. Every day we ensure that he safely goes back to the orphanage that was now managed by a different person. Nori found out how the last manager treated little pups who lost their parents. When Drake found out the manager there was stripped from his position and was moved to one of the prison cells in the city. Nikki decided to bring some of the meals that she cook at home to the orphanage. And ensure that the little pups eat properly. Every day she also brings freshly bake cupcakes that Mikey loves. Speaking of Mikey, I noticed that he had been absent for two days now and today is his third. I need to remember to ask Nori to bring me to the orphanage to check on Mikey. Drake was not busy today that’s why he was the one who took me to work. But I know that he was getti
I never knew that behind those bright smiles hide a very sad story. Nori was out for two days which didn’t bother Mikey much because I was always with him and he was always with his Luna. I look at Mikey and I wondered what he was really feeling behind his innocent smiles. Is he also hurting?“Mikey,” I called his name as I help him get ready for school. “Don’t you want to know why you’re not with daddy Nori right now?” I asked softly.“Dwad ish hwaving a hward twym,” he answered. “Swo, Mwaikey well bwee a gwood bwoy swo dwad wont worry.”I hugged the boy, he doesn’t deserve this. He deserves so much more. I always believe that once you become a parent you held a much greater responsibility in molding the young mind of an innocent child to be a better person than you are. It is your responsibility to make sure that all of your child's needs are met. When I talk about needs it does not only mean financial support. Because that’s not the only thing that a child needs. He/she also needed
The next morning the cool dad and cool son tandem are back. As Nori arrives in his black SUV, wearing the same white shirt with a leather jacket and blue jeans as Mikey. “Alpha,” Nori greeted Drake who was smiling. “Luna,” Nori greeted as he bow down before me. “Wuna,” Mikey said as he gently rubs my tummy.“Not too much baby boy,” Nori warned. Mikey nodded. “I will be very busy this week,” Drake said to Nori. “There’s just a lot of things happening and…” Drake trailed off, instead of saying anything else he closed his eyes as he runs his hand in his now messy, but still good-looking, golden-brown wavy hair.“No explanation needed,” Nori replied waving his hand, “I’ll take care of Athena.” “I feel restless now that she’s nearing…” Once again my Alpha is lost for words. I know how much he wanted to be with me, particularly because I am nearing my due date. He is very meticulous, especially with everything that concerns me giving birth to our Little Wolf. We have a bag ready to brin
Nori came to pick us up earlier than scheduled. Mikey was so happy to see him and I am happy to see them together. “Ready,” Nori asked. I was about to say yes when I notice that I forgot the lunch boxes. “Wait,” I said, “I forgot the lunch boxes, Nikki’s gonna kill me. Let me just get it quickly.” I turned without waiting for Nori to answer and walk as quickly as my swollen feet would allow me to. I went straight to my classroom and was surprised to see the door open. I remember closing it earlier when Mikey and I went out. I entered the room and walk straight to the teacher’s lockers to get the lunch boxes. The hairs on my arms rise as the cold air hits my body. ‘It's that same smell again,’ Leia said. I sense her in alert mode. The smell of burnt wood was stronger than before. ‘It’s near,’ Leia acknowledge what I was fearing. Given my situation, I know that I can’t move freely. I look at my locker and check if there was something in there that I could use as a weapon. ‘Worst
“You’re not going to work baby?” Drake asked. I shook my head, I sat on our bed as I watch Drake prepare for work. Upon hearing my answer, Drake stopped tying his tie and walked toward me. “Baby, if this is about yesterday,” Drake started to say but words stopped coming. I can smell his guilt as he thinks that it was his fault that’s why I decided to stay at home. “I made my own choice baby,” I said as I trace my fingers on his jawline. “I spoke with Nori and I won’t come back until he caught the person that has been following me. Would you be able to help me explain with the school?” “Of course baby,” Drake replied, “If you’re going to stay here and I will work here in my home office.”“You don’t have to,” I said. I didn’t mean to cut him off but right now I just want to have a little time by myself. Pregnancy has made me emotional and most of the time irrational. I shake my head trying to remove negative thoughts.“What are you thinking baby?” He asks.I smiled at him, the kind
