I woke up the next morning with my mate’s arms around me. I started stretching and found aches in places I had never felt aches in before. Isaac and I had made love three more times the night before and I was already ready for a break. After untangling my body from his hold and taking a quick shower, I dressed in my leggings and sports bra and sat in the kitchen, drinking coffee for an hour. I filled up a cup and took it to the bedroom. I sat it on Isaac’s side of the bed and went back to the kitchen, deciding to make breakfast. I made a couple of sausage and cheese omelets and took them to the bedroom on a tray. I sat on the bed and started eating. As soon as the smell of the omelets hit Isaac’s nose, I saw one eye open and I giggled, “Good morning, mate.” Isaac groaned, “Good morning. What time is it?” I chuckled, “It’s almost six a.m. I thought you might want to go to the gym and work out with me a

I looked at Alpha Kenny with a guilty expression and shrugged, “He had it coming. He was thinking of a way to prank the gamma, so I pranked him.” Alpha shook his head and chuckled, “And the thing with Gina?” I replied, “Serves Shawn right for rejecting her for one of the sluts. She needed a confidence boost and I wanted to show her how strong she can be.” Alpha nodded approvingly, “At least you are doing some good while you’re causing chaos.” I laughed my most evil laugh as he turned to Queen Winnie, “How is she doing?” Queen Winnie replied, “She’s catching on a lot faster than I expected. Her great-grandmother took a lot longer to be able to control one wolf.” I asked, “Didn’t Onyx help her?” Queen Winnie replied, “She was a sweet woman who didn’t take much interest in her gifts until she was nearly kidnapped by a rogue dragon. Then she felt like she was on a tight deadline.” Onyx huffed, “She wouldn’t listen to me at all. She was more stubborn than you are.” I laughed, “Onyx i

I woke up with a pounding headache and in a room that was decorated for a woman. I was on a comfortable king size bed with pastel pink bedding. The curtains were also pastel pink and looked to be silk. The windows were huge and let in a lot of light. Everything in the room looked to be high end and far from the dungeon I was expecting. I sat up and put my hands to my head, “Onyx, are you there?” She yawned, “Yeah. Whatever they gave us was not wolfsbane. It was just a sedative.” I added, “That gave me a headache from hell.” Onyx suggested, “See if there is anything for it in the bathroom.” I stood up and sat back down, “The room feels like its floating or something.” Onyx agreed, “It does. Try again but go slower this time.” I slowly stood up and walked to the bathroom. The room was huge with marble floors and walls. The shower looked big enough for four people to shower with their own shower head. There was one wall, by the sink, that had floor-to-ceiling mirrors. There were two me

I shook my head, chuckling, “Look, it’s a duplicate Alpha Tolvar.” He shrugged, “I could think of worse role models.” I cringed, “Yeah, I could think of a lot better too.” He chuckled, “Wow. So, my chosen mate is a smart ass.” He then slapped me, hard, across the face. I fell back onto the bed, then bounced right back up to my feet and punched him in the nose, breaking it. I sneered, “If you think you are going to beat this she-wolf into submission, you need to rethink your strategy, boy. This she-wolf has already taken out nearly every man your father sent to come after me. If they hadn’t drugged me this time, you would’ve had two men in our cells instead of one. So, you will not be able to tame me.” He sat up with a stiffened spine, “My mate is also a strong she-wolf. Please, let’s start over. I will not hurt you again.” I chuckled, “You think that hurt? You hit like a girl. I’ve taken much harder hits than that during training.” I sat down at the table and chairs in the corner o

Isaac POV I got out of the shower and went to dad’s office. I looked around for Zariah and asked my dad, “Where did Zariah go?” He answered, “She went to her house to take a shower and get ready to go.” I nodded, “Thanks.” I started to run out the door when Rolf started whimpering. I furrowed my brow, “What’s wrong Rolf?” Rolf answered, “Onyx says she has been taken by Big Creek pack.” I gasped as I ran back to dad’s office, I motioned for dad to follow me then started running to Zariah’s house. The first thing dad noticed were the two warriors on the ground. I was focused on getting inside the house. When I got to her room, I started panicking. I found a guy on the floor, just outside of her closet. It looked like my mate had taught him a hard lesson in underestimating his opponent. I wanted to punch him again and ask where she was. I mind linked dad, “Dad, you should come in here. You should bring a couple warriors with you.” While I waited, I looked in the bathroom and could t

Zariah POV I was hurting worse than I ever have hurt before. The luna started whipping my back and I know it probably looks horrible. I could feel that it was shredded by the time she finished, but then she insisted that Nathan start. She nagged, “You will beat her into submission. Make her bow down to you.” He continued whipping me until there was no skin left to rip. He then poured wolfsbane into the wounds. I was doing my best to think of happier days during the whipping, and it did help. There was no way I was going to give them any indication of weakness. I managed to keep from screaming in pain when Onyx whimpered, “Let me take most of the pain. If I go away, I will be back. I will be healing myself. Okay?” I sighed, “Okay. Thanks, Onyx.” While he poured wolfsbane into my wounds, I let Onyx take the pain and she yelped, then whimpered, then retreated to the back of my mind. I immediately missed her presence when Nathan started kicking me in the stomach and face. I was sure th

I growled, “The bitch needs to die. So does her mate. He didn’t lay a hand on me, but he ordered my abduction.” Isaac growled, “Yes, she does need to die. He needs to die for causing it to happen in the first place.” Queen Winnie comforted me, “It will happen sweetie. I think your alpha has already ordered it. I have also released the luna from being controlled by the dark witches. She is still showing very little going on in her mind.” I added, “That may explain why the witches chose her to begin with.” Queen Winnie visited with us for a while and then left with the promise of continuing our training tomorrow. She explained, “There are things you can do while relaxing on your porch or the porch of the pack house.” I agreed completely before she gave me a hug, then hugged my mate, then popped out. I turned to Isaac, “She is such a sweetheart.” My mate laughed, “She’s funny as hell too.” I chuckled and then groaned as I rubbed my ribs, “Apparently, my ribs are not completely healed.

I was released from the hospital two days later on the condition that I take it easy and rest for a week. The wolfsbane that had been in my system was finally gone, but it had drastically slowed the healing on my back. Onyx had only just barely healed the wounds, but I was definitely going to have scars. Isaac calls them my battle scars and he’s proud of how I’m handling it. I’m proud of the way he has been handling the trauma he sustained by seeing me like that. I know it bothered him. Queen Winnie and I were sitting on the porch to the pack house, watching some of the warriors train with Gamma Axel. I asked, “Does anyone need an attitude adjustment?” Gamma Axel gave us an evil laugh, “I actually do have one warrior who could use one.” After he pointed the warrior out to me, I concentrated on his thoughts and looked at Gamma Axel, “That man is so full of himself, there is no room for anyone else. It’s a wonder I was able to get in there at all.” Queen Winnie laughed out loud as Gam

I shook my head, “There is absolutely no way that could happen, son. You guys are just as much my real children as the unborn ones are. I have never had a favorite child and I will never start. The pack knows this too. That means, Blaine, no matter what sex our future children are, you will still be the Alpha heir. You are the one the Goddess wants leading this pack.”Blaine shrugged, “Then I guess I’m all in.” I smiled, “Thank you, son.” Isaac smiled, “I’m really proud of you both. Your mom was super worried about hurting your feelings. We even agreed that if you were not okay with us having a baby, we wouldn’t even try.”Heather furrowed her brow, “Mom, why would you do that?” I shrugged, “Because I want you two to feel like you are part of our family, even if it means not doing something I want. But that’s what parents do all the time.”Blaine gave me one of the most serious looks that I have ever seen and I even felt a little alpha aura come out, “Mom, don’t ever sacrifice your hap

I gasped, “Are you serious?” Doctor Spink answered, “I’m very serious. There is a lot of scar tissue, but it hasn’t started affecting your uterus or ovaries. We may need to have you take some hormones to be able wake up your ovaries. Are you still having your periods regularly?” I nodded, “Yes.”She smiled, “This may not be so hard on you. The recovery from your surgery can be painful, but I can give you medicine for that.” I suddenly heard Onyx in my head, “If she can get rid of all that scar tissue, I can prepare our uterus and ovaries. No hormones necessary. They will just make both of us moody.”I asked, “How soon can we do the surgery?” She asked, “Have you eaten or drank anything other than water this morning?” I answered, “No. I figured you would need fasting blood work.” She smiled, “Good. I would like to have your pre-operative blood work today and schedule your surgery for ten days from now. Does that sound good to you?” I nodded, “That will give me time to prepare for it.”S

Three months LaterAfter three months of going to Iced Moon Pack to see our grandbabies and to help Lena and Lucas settle into their new roles as parents, we finally had a little more free time. It’s hard enough to adjust to the new life with one child. I couldn’t imagine how it would be with three. They have already started sleeping through the night, so I felt better about less frequent visits.Once we were able to stop going up there so often, Isaac took me to see a special OB/GYN surgeon in Saint Louis. He led me to the office and he checked me in. The receptionist gave me a clipboard with a questionnaire to complete and we went to the waiting room. I finished completing the form just in time for the nurse to walk out and call my name.Isaac pushed my wheelchair as we followed the nurse to an exam room. She shut the door and turned to us, “I’m Julie. I am Doctor Spink’s nurse. I just need to go over some information with you and I need to take your vital signs.” I nodded, “Okay.”A

We got a big surprise. Well, Heather wasn’t surprised, but she kept it a secret. We have three new grandbabies! Triplets! Lena had two boys and one girl. Blaine was so excited to have two nephews and a niece to spoil. Isaac and I were over the moon.The first baby born was a boy, Joshua Douglas, weighed just five pounds, six ounces. For a triplet, that’s a big boy. The next baby was a girl, Isabel Zariah, weighed just three pounds, ten ounces, and was in an incubator for a few days. They wanted her to gain at least one pound before she left the hospital. Finally, Kenneth Isaac weighed four pounds, twelve ounces and also spent a little time in an incubator to get him to gain a little weight.Isabel and Kenneth got to go home four days after Joshua. We were so excited to spend time cuddling with each of them before we had to go home. As I held each of them, I started wishing I had been able to have a child of our own. I started to get depressed but talked myself into putting that energy

Seven Months LaterI pushed my wheelchair as fast as I could from our bedroom to the living room and yelled throughout the house on the way, “Is everyone ready to go? We need to get to Lena!” Isaac, jogging behind me, started chuckling, “Slow down, love. The babies will come whether we are there on time or not.” I sighed, “But I want to be there as soon as they are born. We need to go.”Blaine’s tires squealed as he came to a stop in the living room, “I’m ready to go. We’re just waiting for Heather and Aadi.” Aadi joined us, “Franco will join us outside. He already got someone to cover his patrols for the next couple days.”I smiled, “He has been a real advantage for our warriors. We need more bird shifters.” Aadi laughed, “I got really lucky. He’s a very good mate. He loves all of you because you are my family.” I gushed, “Aw. He’s already part of our family too.”Heather rushed to the living room and yelled, “Okay! I’m ready! I even remembered my presents for the babies!” I asked, “W

Six weeks laterThe past six weeks have been an adjustment period for all of us. Blaine and Elizabeth have been looking for reasons to see each other, driving us all crazy. We have finally resorted to letting them take turns, every other weekend, taking our packs’ private jets to the other pack. We told each of our pilots they were not allowed to go anywhere else.We felt Lena’s absence each time we sat at the table to eat dinner and each time we loaded up in the truck. Blaine and Heather loved having the extra room in the back seat. Heather was very vocal about her opinion on Lena’s absence the first couple weeks. Thankfully, she has let up on that. Now my heart can heal and let my daughter live her best life.Isaac and I have felt her absence a lot. She always had such a different way of thinking about solutions to problems that we looked forward to getting her input. Heather, however, has another way of finding solutions. Her oracle abilities allow her to see the best solutions or t

We were almost done eating breakfast when Heather walked into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of juice from the refrigerator and a banana from the fruit basket. She started to walk out of the kitchen, but turned around and smiled, “I’m going for my run. It’s a ten-mile day. The girls are on their way. Also, I do not want to talk about the stuff I heard last night.”We all laughed as she ran out of the house to meet her friends. I smiled, “She is so much like me. I did the same thing. My friends and I got up to twenty-mile days. She’s doing very well at seven years old. She will get done with her run, attend warrior training, allow four hours for Luna training, then two more hours for Beta mate training.“Then she goes to our home gym and meets her Uncle Axle for Gamma training and more fighting style training. She wants to be prepared for everything. She doesn’t stop. She has asked to be homeschooled so she can do it on her schedule. She is staying caught up and getting straight A’s.

The next morning, I woke up a little later than usual, but still earlier than everyone else, aside from Aadi. She is always on top of everything. After I finished my morning routine, I went to the kitchen and found Aadi finishing up breakfast.Aadi smiled, “Good morning, Zariah. How did the run go?” I sighed, “Lucas recognized Lena as his mate and accepted her.” Aadi asked, “So does that mean she will be leaving us today?” I nodded, “I think they are planning to leave today, after she packs her things.”Aadi sighed, “I’m not ready for her to go.” She sat my coffee in front of me on the table and continued, “I’m going to miss the hell out of her. She helps me a lot.” I nodded, “I know. She is a big help to the pack, but that means she will be an amazing Luna for Lucas. That’s what I’ve been training her for. It’s all I can ask of her; to be the best Luna she can be. I’m so proud of her.”That was when Alpha Doug and Luna Kathryn walked into the kitchen. Alpha Doug asked, “Are you talkin

For the last two years, Blaine had known that Elizabeth was his mate and it had been making him crazy. He still had another two years before her first shift. Instead of making himself crazy over that, he had buried himself in school and Alpha training.He had also been working on training his wolf. The warriors were shocked and amazed at his solid black wolf with amber eyes that glowed. They were also shocked that his wolf could run and fight when his human form couldn’t move from the waist down. They were also jealous that his clothes stayed intact when he shifted.He and Lena had been looking forward to seeing their mates every two weeks. We had been taking turns with Alpha Doug and Luna Kathryn on travelling to one another’s packs. I was just happy our packs had private jets to use, which greatly reduced travel time.Lena had been spending the past two years in Luna training with me. It gave her a big distraction from the mate bond and she was happy to bury herself in it. She had be
