After losing both her parents and being injured at a very young age, then losing her grandparents less than ten years later, Zariah is put under the guardianship of the Alpha and Luna. She had been raised around alpha heir Isaac since she came to live with her grandparents. Isaac was protective of her from day one and never stopped. When Izzy turns eighteen, she gets her wolf, Onyx, and finds that Isaac is her mate. Although she is happy that he is the one, how can she trust the mate bond? After all, the mate bond killed her parents, and the mate bond killed her grandmother after her grandfather was killed. She wants to be positive that she can trust the bond before she accepts it. Meanwhile, she finds that her wolf is a rare wolf and there are dark witches who wish to drain her of her wolf's power. They also find out that there are two other alphas trying to kidnap her in order to use her for her abilities. She wonders if she will ever be done fighting. Whether it's the mate bond or assholes coming after her for her abilities, it seemed she would always be fighting. She was even fighting with herself! What would it take to end the fighting?

I asked, “How do you ever tell Zayla no? She has me around her little finger.”Aadi chuckled, “It’s not easy. Those eyes will knock you on your ass every time.” I laughed, “Yes, they will. I’m surprised they are developing so fast.” Aadi sighed, “I know. They are doing a lot of things they shouldn’t be doing for months.” I suggested, “Maybe it has something to do with them being my babies’ protectors.” Aadi concurred, “I think you may be right. It’s just… a lot.”I sighed, “I don’t know how you’ve not gone crazy yet. I have a feeling mine may be the same way. I just don’t know why. Maybe we should ask the Goddess when we go to sleep tonight. Or I may try to remember to ask if I get to lay down for a nap today.” Aadi argued, “No ifs, lady, you are under strict or
I chuckled, “Rolf, are you going to scold them?” He shook his head, “I can be gentle, mate. You should know that.” I laughed at his wolfy grin, “Yes, I most certainly do. I’ll just relax while you speak with our pups.” I laid back and watched as he lifted the T-shirt I was wearing and he got his face very close to my belly. He spoke in such a gentle and soothing voice that it almost made me cry happy tears.He soothed, “My little pups, you must be good to your mother. We need to do all we can to bring you into the world safely and keep your mother’s pain down as much as we can. She is a very good mother and she will be good to you. Both of you need to make sure you turn so that your heads are pointing down before you can be brought into the world. If you don’t, the doctor will have to cut your mommy’s belly and pull you out. She doesn’t want that for her or you. So, make sure you turn soon, so we can all be ready when the time comes. You are both beautiful babies and we can’t wait to h
Three months later, Isaac and I were at the doctor’s office and I was already huge. My belly felt so tight that it felt like it could bust open any day. Doctor Brawn walked into the room and asked, “How are you feeling?” I sighed, “Extremely uncomfortable. My belly feels very tight and my hips hurt.”She sighed, “Yeah, this part of the pregnancy is very uncomfortable, especially for first-time mothers. Unfortunately, there is nothing I can really do about that. A heating pad helps. Other than that, the only other thing I can suggest is over the counter non-aspirin pain relief. I would avoid Ibuprofen though. It thins the blood and you don’t want to have that in your system when the babies decide to make their appearance.” I sighed, “I figured that.”She asked me to lay back on the bed and I did as she requested. She did my examination first and smiled, “Well, Luna, your cervix is thinning, so you could go into labor soon.” I furrowed my brow, “Isn’t it too early?” She answered, “I woul
Isaac ordered, “Franco, take your mate to the hospital. I will get my mate out of bed and into her chair and we will be right behind you.” I rushed out of the bedroom, “Don’t wait on me. Just go. We are literally right behind you.” Franco ran at full speed with Aadi in his arms.Isaac moved behind me and started pushing my wheelchair at full speed through the halls. I asked Isaac, “Did you happen to link the doctor?” Isaac answered, “Franco already did that. The nurses will be waiting for him. I already told them to give her the Luna’s room.” I smiled as I looked up at him, “Thank you, love.”He smiled as he waggled his eyebrows, “You can thank me later.” I shook my head chuckling, “You are so naughty.” He leaned down to whisper in my ear, “But you like my naughtiness.” I chuckled, “I do, but the place for this particular conversation is not here.” He stood and laughed out loud, “I get it.”As soon as we reached the clinic, there was a nurse and a doctor waiting for them. Franco’s shak
That evening, at dinner, Heather asked, “So, mom, I’ve been waiting patiently all day. Are you going to tell us?” I looked at my mate and we both laughed. I answered, “I was wondering when you would ask. We are having a boy and a girl.” Heather smiled, “That’s perfect. Are you going to stop with them?” I shook my head, “No. The Goddess told me we will have a minimum of five.”Heather gasped, “Mom! Are you sure you will be able to handle it with your medical issues?” I smiled, “This is the Goddess’ plan for us. I will always follow her path for us. There are good reasons for each of them to be born, although I don’t know what they are yet.” Isaac added, “Besides, you know we love raising children. We had so much fun with you, Blaine and Lena.”Heather smiled, “Yeah, we did have fun. And you are young enough that you can still enjoy them. I keep forgetting that you guys were still teenagers when you adopted us. We are all so glad you did too.” I blew a kiss to her from across the table a
Three months later, Isaac and I were sitting in the doctor’s office waiting to get another ultrasound done. My doctor had been treating mine as a high-risk pregnancy because we didn’t know what was going to happen after all of my scar tissue was removed. We were hoping my uterine walls held up. Doctor Spink was certain that all was okay with it, but my doctor just wanted to keep an eye on it.When his nurse came out to get us, we went straight to our exam room and she smiled, “Your baby bump is already starting to get big. Are you planning to find out what you are having?” I chuckled, “Of course. We’re so excited. I really hope they cooperate.” She laughed, “Oh, trust me, we’ve met our fair share of uncooperative babies. We have our ways of getting the information we need.”She took my vitals and Isaac asked, “Can we please get a female doctor? It drives my wolf nuts to see a male doctor examining my mate.” She chuckled, “That’s a sign of a good mate. I can ask Amy, our nurse practitio
Six days later, I was in my office when Heather walked in and sat in one of the chairs across from me. I sat back in my chair and asked, “What’s up?” She smiled, “I just got back from getting my schedule and materials for school. I don’t need to take any of the Math classes, or the literature classes. I have to take at least one civics class and a bunch of electives to get my Associate of Science degree. I will be able to take the majority of my classes online too.”I raised my eyebrows, “That’s great, sweetie. What does your schedule look like?” She handed a piece of paper to me and I saw that she is doubling up on her credit hours. I asked, “Sweetheart, are you sure you want to take so many hours in classes?” She nodded, “I’m sure. These classes seem to be fairly easy. I think Chemistry and Biology might be a bit difficult, but not impossible.”I sighed, “Okay. I might be able to help some, but Aadi might be even more help. What is your civics class?” She answered, “I think it will b
Thursday evening, we all sat down for dinner, then we all noticed that Heather’s seat was empty. I asked, “Ben, have you heard from Heather yet?” Ben answered, “She called me at lunchtime. She said she may be late. She still had four more tests to take.”I nodded in understanding, “I bet she’s overthinking some questions. My daughter is most definitely a genius, but she does doubt herself a lot. Ben, you will have to keep that in mind and reassure her of her intelligence regularly.” Ben laughed softly, “She’s most definitely perfect for me. I tell her how smart she is all the time. She’s also a badass on the training grounds.”Isaac laughed, “Yes, she is. Just like her mother. Before Zariah was paralyzed, she could kick some serious ass. She put me on my ass more than once. She may not be able to use her legs anymore, but she can still pack a punch too.” I smiled, “The Goddess always puts us with our perfect partner.”Ben smiled, “I couldn’t agree more.” Blaine sighed, “Mom, Elizabeth
That evening, Isaac and I went home and found Aadi cooking dinner. I asked, “How are things with you? You look a tad bothered.” Aadi answered, “Not really bothered. Not mad either.” I laughed, “Okay. So, what’s the problem?”She answered, “Franco’s brother got here at around eleven this morning. As soon as they got out of the truck, Ben started sniffing the air and he hasn’t been able to stop. Franco has been so excited about it that he forgot to run to the store for me. I’m craving cookies and cream ice cream. I really wanted that for dessert.”I chuckled, “How about calling him now and asking him to stop?” She sighed, “I understand why he’s excited. His brother has scented his mate. He’s taking him all around the pack to see if he can find her. I’m just having a hormonal moment.” I looked back at Isaac and He chuckled, “On it.” He walked out the door and walked right back in.I furrowed my brows at him and he smiled, “I think I know who Ben’s mate is.” He ran upstairs and walked back
“Thank you, Miss Franklin. I’ll tell mom you need to talk to her,” I assured as I walked out of the general store.Miss Franklin is the little grey-haired lady who owned the store. It was more than just a small grocery store to this little town. It was also the gas station, video rental, and a deli-style sandwich shop.Besides the bait shop and canoe rental next to the river two miles away, it was the only business in our town.Horseshoe Bend, Arkansas is a tiny town in neutral territory.It’s a town that has a great sense of community and it’s very close-knit.My parents always told me they didn’t like being in their old pack because the alpha didn’t pay the omegas for their work and treated them like dirt.They always told me that if I ever wanted to join a pack, make sure to ask if the omegas are paid.That was a good way to tell if it was a good pack.My parents were loving and doted on me, as the only child, but they never spoiled me.As unaffiliated wolves, they couldn’t afford ...
