Austen's POV Hours passed with Chloe, Lucas wanted her to take her time so we sat eating something small then went to sit with the children for a while.It helps her to be around them but I noticed, after a while of being with them that she was starting to seem off again.Knowing I was hungry again, since we didn't really eat anything big before I decided to go down to make us some food before meeting Chloe back in her suite.She started putting the kids down to bed as I went down to the kitchen.After about 30 minutes I headed back up with some sandwiches, chips, veggies, along with fruit since I know how much she likes having strawberries with sliced up bananas.Watching Chloe go through the turmoil that was eating at her.We were sitting down eating, well I was while she sat there trapped inside her own thoughts, even though she is still in this room with me she isn't really here.She was mumbling about dream walking to find him but I'm not exactly tly positive what that is all ab
Chloe's POV I walked back into my room after getting the kids down, waiting for Austen to bring some food. I've been avoiding the hospital, seeing him there, like that, with nothing I can do was breaking me.Lucas kept telling me to take my time, it made it easier to stay away having him tell me to, but it still felt really wrong at the same time.I keep thinking, wanting to find a way to help, I don't want to lose him. I want the pups growing up with both their fathers, I want them to know Alaric, have him see them grow, teach them what it is to be a Lycan.Even though I know Lucas loves them as his blood, he doesn't know what it is to raise Lycan pups, neither do I honestly. Being as I'm still learning to adjust to being one, I have control but the thought of explaining or helping someone else know what it's like scares me.Being rational with it, I know by the time they are of age I will know what to do, but I don't want to, I want him here to do it.It sounds selfish, even as I
Chloe’s POVSitting back in the darkness of my mind, still feeling the sobs rack through my body as I no longer fought against Callie for control.My body, my mind, everything just felt weak right now, I was broken.It took everything in me to keep us from killing that poor girl in the house, we definitely hurt her, but i fought back, hurting myself to keep from ripping her to pieces. I hope she was able to get some help, hopefully she will heal properly from the gash that sliced through her like a knife cutting through softened butter.The feel of her flesh slicing through our claw felt amazing, almost intoxicating so it took all of me to stop it from happening again.Callie wouldn’t listen to me, she has tried to block me from speaking to her, her rage is consuming her but I am so tired I just don’t know how to get through to her.She ran us off into the woods after I broke our front paw then sliced through my hind leg with my other claw. The pain was overwhelming as I hear her grow
Chapter 101Lucas’s POV When I saw her stalking slowly towards me, her arm raising into the air to strike against me, I kept trying to speak to her, praying she will hear me somehow. I went to close my eyes but before I could she suddenly stopped, like she was fighting herself, Chloe was fighting to get through to Callie, same as I was. Looking up at her when I watched my beautiful mate shift, her body hitting the ground as she curled into herself. She was covered in dry blood, dirt, sweat, everything, yet she still looked simply perfect to me. I knelt down, pulling her into my arms while carrying her up the stairs to our room, her eyes opening to look up at me as she realized she had control again but the heartbreak in her eyes broke my heart more than it already was. We had lost him, our mate, our family, our King. The kids lost a father, someone that loved them so whole heartily, someone I will do everything in my power that they know about, grow to be like him, strong, lovi
Chloe's POV When I woke up in the morning with the kids giggling with one another I smiled at them before reaching behind myself to feel emptiness.My heart stopped for a moment when reality hit me again that he wasn't here, that I had lost him from my life.Bringing my hand up to his mark I ran my fingers across it gently as a tear slipped down my cheek. Wiping it away while I looked at the smiling faces of our babies while looking over to see Lucas looking at me.The love that filled his eyes along with sorrow he was trying to hide from me.Locking eyes he had a small smile on his handsome face making me smile back at him.'We are so lucky to have him' 'We always have been Clo.... I'm sorry for what..''Don't Callie, you have nothing to be sorry for, we are both suffering.'I could feel her curl up in the dark but I also felt a wave of relief run through me from her. We both need to be there for one another to work through this loss, to learn to live without our husband.*****Aft
Chloe's POV It's been two months since we laid Alaric to rest. Today is the twins first birthday party, we are celebrating a week late to add in Aria and her son Mikey for his first as well.I have been spending most of my time with the kids, bringing them to do my Luna duties as well.No one is ever bothered having them there with me, they live getting to see their late Kings pups, watching them grow.They are loved by everyone in our pack, treated like family by all, including Mikey who I tend to keep with me as well.Aria has been helping me out a lot with Luna duties as well, taking care of things I don't have the time for, like checking homes, making sure everyone has what they need, no one here goes without.We have Mikey stay with me because the twins treat him as if they are triplets. Rose and Mikey are always together but David tends to go off to play alone.He always seems to walk off alone, not far but far enough where he can't join in when he wants to. I watch him a lot,
Chloe's POV"Push! Keep pushing Clo! You can do this!"I feel him wipe sweat from my forhead with a towel while his other hand is being crushed by my grip while I push with everything in me.Screams tearing from my throat at the excruciating pain when suddenly it stops, my head falls back hitting the small uncomfortable pillow on the bed when I hear him.A babies cry, my son, crying as he is placed down on my chest for me to wipe off.Lucas's eyes filled with tears as he peers down at his son before looking to me, smiling before he leans down to kiss my head."He's perfect my love, you did amazing, I'm so proud of you."I looked down at this perfect little bundle that I was holding in my arms as I feel a tear slip down my cheek when his eyes open, they fixated on mine instantly while he laid there.Just feeling one another, bonding to one another, seeing his gray eyes looking up at him, he was so tiny, fragile, but absolutely breathtakingly perfect."Welcome to the world my little pri
"Wake up Chloe!" 'Crap! You over slept again and now moms screaming for you, can't believe you hit the snooze button again' internally yelling at my self once again. I get up stretching my back and hop out of bed and run to the shower to grab a quick one to wake myself up. Finished showering and dressed, I put on my converse and look at myself in the mirror, jean shorts with a slipknot shirt my jean jacket and my red converse, yeah that works for today I guess. I walk down the hall and turn the corner to my mom tapping her watch at me and I rolled my eye's, "I know I'm late, I'm sorry mom. Can you give me a ride still tho?" I asked looking at her with my puppy dog eye's, she rolled hers back at me, smirked "Hurry up and get in the car, you know when you are late you make me late too". Finally we get the school as I jump out, blow a kiss back to her then race off to class. My day goes by like a typical day. I don't really like school, my classes are boring as they are way to easy for

Lucas's POV After we all sat around, contemplating what to do about Alaric I had to force Chloe to go home so she could see the kids.Her asking about whether her blood could help him put everyone on edge, worry she may try something stupid.Her giving him her blood before barley brought him back, didn't help heal him but kept him from dying.It nearly killed her though, the amount of bloodbshe lost in the process was far to much for her. We can't risk losing her, not after everything, plus Alaric would never be able to live with himself if we risked her. Him just finding out she did what she did on the field while upset him, but he also would expect nothing less of her, we know she would die for either one of us, or our kids.'Lucas, I'm home with the kids, going to spend some time with them then clean up and head back''Please Clo, take your time, I won't leave his side. I love you Chloe, so much.''I love you too Lucas'She cut the link off after that.Sitting here with Alaric, a
Chloe's POV I felt helpless.Waking up to see Alaric like that, seeing how tortured Lucas was by everything, feeling his emotions hanging on by a thread as he tries to remain strong for us.After talking to Damon, we all are just here, looking down at Alaric, my heart racing as I try to come to terms with what is going on."Now what do we do?How can we find out how to bring back his Lycan?"Damon sat down on the bed with me as he flopped an arm over my shoulders while Lucas never stopped staring at Alaric. I looked over at Damon as he sat there, no words being spoken as we all try to figure out something.Damon having magic, I'm praying he may be able to figure out something but my heart was breaking as I tried to focus in on Alaric. I couldn't feel anything.No Lycan.Not even him.I couldn't feel any emotions at all coming from him, it was as if he was gone already yet here he is, laying in a bed in front of my eyes.A machine breathing for him with a weak heartbeat on a monitor
