We will learn more about Celestials in the next chapter. They will remain in this series because there was a reason why Selene had them saved.
ELLE “To what do I owe the pleasure of this call?” I asked Dante. I smiled down at my mate who was telling the twins about his day so far. It warmed my heart to see him bonding with our pups already. I did the same thing, as did Faye, and Tyre. The four of us were extremely excited about this new development. “Can’t I just call to fucking show my motherfucking appreciation of my epic sister?” Dante deadpanned. “You can, but I know you well enough to hear the stress in your voice. So, tell your epic sister what’s going on.” I smirked as Kade switched from telling them about his day to telling them how feisty I was and how it was one of his favorite qualities of mine. I bit my lip to stop me from laughing. There were many qualities that I knew he loved, but those were not very appropriate to share with our offspring. Those would definitely stay between us. “The Eyes have enlisted the aid of a powerful witch to locate her. Luckily, we were all together when the spell was cast, and
ELLE I fell asleep in my mate’s arms just like I did every night. The last thing that I always remembered was being encased in arms that were my home, my safe place. However, this time I did not wake up in his arms. I woke up in Selene’s realm. It was still home for my soul and definitely my soul’s safe place. It was my soul that recognized the bond to this realm, the bond within who I was. Sparks danced along my arms as Kade wrapped his around me, pulling my body firmly against his. “If it is not my favorite mateship, pairing, and family,” Selene’s voice floated along the wind. She looked exactly like she did the last time we were here while at the Blue Crest hospital. The difference was the crimson draped dress that she wore. If we were being honest, she could wear a brown paper bag and still make it look good somehow. “It’s so good to see you,” I told her. “Yes. It definitely is,” Kade added. She chuckled softly before embracing us individually. Her hugs always energized my
KADE I held her hair back while she was sick to her stomach. I hated that this was part of her pregnancy. There was little I could do other than take care of her in other ways. This included daily massages, food craving runs, and whatever else her precious heart desired. I handed her a wet washcloth when she was done. She then brushed her teeth before turning to me. “You don’t have to be in here when I’m sick, baby. It can’t be pleasant for you,” she said, wrinkling her nose in the most adorable way. My arms wrapped around her body and pulled hers into mine. I nuzzled her neck before placing a kiss on my mark. “I appreciate that, but I would rather be nowhere else. You’re going through this because our pups are growing inside of your womb. I’ll be here to support you in every single way that I can because you’re doing an amazing thing for us.” She pressed herself into me, resting her head on my chest. I had never felt as content in my entire life as I did with her in my arms. El
ELLE “It is not an issue per say,” Valis hedged. “It just requires precautionary measures.” I pinched the bridge of my nose in order to keep my head on straight. Valis requested a meeting with us regarding the feeding room fireworks. He had not given us any additional information until he got in front of us. Kade had me sitting on his lap which was the best seat in the house. Our leadership was also here. I had to give props to our Lamias because those three had taken to their roles right away and had the mindsets to help our pack flourish. They also helped take over some of the duties that revolved around ensuring that our pack members were doing good. The three of them even took it upon themselves to help out with the orphans a little bit each day. “Perhaps you could elaborate on that,” I suggested gently. Valis had become very close to our pack. His coven did so many great things for vampires and non-vampires alike. He was an honorable man that we were blessed to know. “Celes
ELLE I got together with Bonnie to ask her some questions about her pregnancy with Mia. Her pregnancy was different because Mia was half vampire. Thus, her development was similar to our pups. Bonnie did warn me that Mia ended up breaking a rib and left her body riddled with bruises from how strong and active she was. She found that Mia settled down when Bonnie sang to her. It was suggested that I search for whatever will soothe the two future ninjas in my womb. My mother mentioned that many unborn pups will calm down when their father’s rub over whatever spot they were fighting against. Kade was ecstatic about that idea. Kade and Tyre were both really taking to their role as fathers to the pups. The true genuine glee that ran through the bond soothed my soul and reminded me how loved these two would be. “Helga sends her regards. I swear you’re her favorite in this entire pack. It used to be me,” Kade pouted. He slid over my white chocolate mocha with whipped cream and caramel dri
KADE I continued sending a steady stream of calm through the bond to my mate because I very clearly understood what this environment did to her and the emotions it evoked. We both understood that this was for the greater good, but it was still a difficult situation for us to be in. “How were you able to accomplish such a feat? I thought they were nearly impossible to capture,” I said with just the right mixture of curiosity and amusement in my voice to fool them. Lady Bitch smirked as she exchanged a smug look with her companion. “It certainly is nearly impossible, but we waited until she was in heat and unable to fight us. Our men easily took out her guards with bullets coated in a poison which is lethal to their kind,” Lord Assfuck explained. An amused chuckle sounded from me even though I wanted to snarl and rip their heads off instead. Elle’s fingertips danced along my neck to keep both of us in check. The constant brush of sparks was that tether for us. “I want to taste her,
ELLE Kade placed a kiss over the healing wound before he knelt in front of me and listened to our pups. They were safe, but he just needed reassurance. He had been worried about something happening to them and me during both of these feeding room rescues. I ran my fingers through his hair and reveled in the fact that this man was mine for the rest of our lives. He placed two kisses on my stomach before kissing my lips too. Then we faced a group of very confused people. “We’ll go get you all some clothes and see when the food will be ready. We know that you’re very confused right now but just know that you’re absolutely safe here. That was the second feeding room that we’ve personally dealt with, but our three friends over there have done many more,” I said, pointing out our three vamps. The pregnant woman approached me while carrying the baby. There were many emotions on her face, but the most prominent one was gratitude. “Thank you. My child will live because of what you all did
KADE Thirty-seven of the innocent humans that we saved ended up wanting to stay in the pack. Elle’s parents offered to house them once the pack was up and going. It was amazing to see how quickly Gramps’ crews were building up Shadow Falls. It was not just them though. Volunteers, both shifter and human, were also helping out. It started out with a few dozen, but then it became a few hundred volunteers. More people kept turning up to help out. They could have the pack functional in the few months at this rate. “Miss Elle. Alpha Kade,” Denny called out as we approached their new house that was almost completely finished. My wonderful mate insisted that he still called her Miss Elle instead of Luna because he was very special to her. That boy was so giddy after that. “Good afternoon, Denny,” she said. “How’s your day going so far?” I asked him. He was holding a sleeping Angel, and I had never seen the kid happier before. She would definitely have the best older brother anyone coul
