I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I would love to read your comments.
When we got to the dining room, we went to the buffet and I grabbed biscuits and sausage gravy with hash browns, bacon and a large cup of coffee. We went to sit with Alpha Kenny and Luna Kyra and were greeted with smiles. Luna Kyra smiled, “Good morning. Are you ready for the second biggest day of the month?”I laughed, “Yeah. It’s getting a great start too.” Luna Kyra asked, “How is that?” I smiled, “They are taking Elana off the ventilator as we speak.” Luna Kyra gasped, “Oh! Can I come with you?” I laughed, “Of course.”Alpha Kenny suggested, “I’ll stay here and let you know when guests start coming in.” I sighed, “Once again, we are going to have another day of organized chaos.” Isaac sighed, “But at least this is the good kind of chaos.” I laughed, “I guess you’re right.”After breakfast, we went to the hospital. As soon as I laid eyes on Elana, she looked so much better. I asked, “How are you feeling?” She replied in a weak, gravelly voice, but she was smiling, “I feel so much be
Miss Franklin and I walked into the pack house and I introduced her to Alpha Kenny, Luna Kyra and Isaac. I asked, “Would you like to go to the dining room and get some coffee? We can sit and talk there.” She nodded, “That sounds great.”When we sat down, she asked, “So how did everything go after you were picked up?” I recounted all of my life’s major happenings since the age of four and she was floored, to say the least.I finished, “Enough about me. I heard Mister Franklin passed, how are you doing?” She shrugged, “I’m okay. My mate was my life for many years. I’ve just been trying to move past it. He wouldn’t want me to lay down and die for him. I’m too young for that. I still have a lot of years left, so I’m hoping for a second chance mate.”I asked, “Do you still own the store?” She shook her head, “No, I have passed that on to my son. He’s an adult now. I just work there for something to do now. I’m not there all the time anymore either.” I smiled, “That’s really good. You deser
I growled, “Put him in cuffs and take him to the cells. He killed my parents and tried to kill me.” Alpha Kenny scowled, “Are you positive?” I nodded, “I will never forget the eyes of the wolf who stared me down after ripping my father’s throat out. But I will know for sure if you force him to shift.”Alpha Kenny turned to the man and commanded him to shift. The man stripped out of his clothes and shifted into the same wolf who I now had no doubt killed my parents. I nodded to Alpha Kenny, “He is the wolf who killed them and tried to kill me.”Just then, I heard Miss Franklin’s gasp from behind me, “She is not mistaken. He is one of them. I watched the whole thing happen, alpha. I wouldn’t forget him either.” Alpha Kenny commanded him to shift and get dressed, then he was put in silver cuffs and taken to the cells.As soon as he was out of sight, I broke down and started crying uncontrollably. Alpha Kenny held me closely until Isaac ran to me, “What’s wrong? What happened?” Alpha Kenny
I gasped, “Oh, goddess, Miss Franklin! That’s terrible. I’m so sorry.” She sighed, “It was not long after you and your parents were attacked. They went crazy for a while, just killing people for the fun of it.”I gasped as I asked, “Were they looking for me?” She nodded, “I knew about your wolf. The goddess told me. She gave me the gift of sight so that I could watch over you, no matter where you are. I would be able to warn whoever was closest to you.”Jayla suggested, “Why don’t we give you our numbers too? That way if you see something urgent, and we are the only ones with her, you can call us.” Miss Franklin sighed, “I would love that. Thank you. We must protect the special wolves who will save our species from a horrific death.”I asked, “Miss Franklin, do you get visions?” She nodded shyly at me, “Only when the goddess wants me to see something. She told me that I needed to get to you. Then she told me where you are and how I can contact you. I didn’t expect to get an invitation
Miss Franklin and I sat in the observation room while Isaac and Alpha Kenny chained the guy to a chair. Queen Winnie stood at the doorway of that room with a scowl on her face. I could tell she was in his head when the guy, who had been swearing at my future father-in-law and my mate suddenly got quiet and still.I turned to Miss Franklin, “She’s in his head, controlling him. That’s what I was trying to do, but the evil in there was too much. I need to get used to it though. There are some dark witches who are trying to find me.”Miss Franklin gasped, “What are you going to do?” I shrugged, “I’m not sure yet. I’m well protected here, but they have been coming around occasionally to ask the guards if they’ve seen my wolf. Thankfully, no one except my inner circle of friends have seen her. Therefore, they are not lying. They haven’t seen her.”Miss Franklin laughed, “You really are a true luna. You are even protecting your pack from having to lie for you.” I shrugged and chuckled, “Yeah,
After asking many more questions with no answers received, Isaac and Alpha Kenny walked into the observation room. Isaac wrapped his arms around me, “Love, if you still don’t want to see the gross stuff, you should probably go back to the pack house.” I nodded, “I think I want to do that.”Miss Franklin asked, “Would it be okay if I watch? I watched this asshole do unspeakable things. I want to see him suffer.” Alpha Kenny nodded as he put a friendly hand on her shoulder, “Of course. If you think of any questions to ask, just hit the intercom button in front of you.”Alpha Kenny asked, “Isaac, do you want to help?” He growled, “Hell yeah. I want this guy to suffer.” Queen Winnie added, “I’m staying down here to tell you if he’s lying or to read his mind if he resists talking.” I thanked Queen Winnie and walked to the pack house with Kevin, Jayla, Mike and Tayna. I had no desire at all to see and hear the things that were going to happen to Zev.I sat in Luna Kyra’s office and talked wi
Luna Kyra and I stood up so quickly that it caused the warriors protecting us to stand and take a defense stance. I suggested, “We need to get them out of there.” We all walked to the kitchen and identified the men from a distance. Luna Kyra sent a mind link to Gamma Axel to send warriors.Meanwhile, Kevin, Jayla, Mike and Tayna split up and blocked every exit from the kitchen and didn’t let them leave. The men looked at us and asked why they were being held. I asked, “Does the name Zev ring a bell?”All three men froze in fear and I smiled, “You can stop blocking your scents now. We know who you are. Get ready, boys. You are about to meet our Alpha and my mate, the Alpha Heir.”One of the men snarled at me, “We should’ve finished you off when we had the chance.” Luna Kyra laughed, “I, for one, am glad you didn’t. Our pack is going to have one kick-ass luna because y’all failed.”My head whipped over to face Luna and I grinned widely. Luna Kyra laughed knowing I was shocked at her use
I could smell my captor and it wasn’t a rogue, but he was from another pack. I just didn’t know which one. I could feel he was a higher rank and his wound on his hand healed within a minute.I continued screaming as he laughed, “Girl, don’t you remember that these doors are soundproof.” I closed my eyes and took deep breaths, calming myself. While I continued doing this, I mind linked Jayla, “Jayla! Get in here! I’m being taken!”The man picked me up and started toward the balcony, when the door burst open. All four of my bodyguards ran straight for us and I started feeling fangs on my neck. I laughed, “I’m already marked, dumb shit. Who are you?”Jayla stopped everyone and I asked the guy again, “Who are you?” The man answered, “I am Alpha Roman Addams from The Blood Mountain Pack. I don’t care if you’re marked. Once I mark you his mark will disappear.”I shook my head, “Not going to happen asshole.” I stomped his foot as hard as I could. I heard bones breaking and the alpha yelled as
I had just finished updating the books for the pack’s business when my phone rang. The school counselor sounded quite irritated when he informed me that Heather had finished the tests. I thanked him and told him we would be there shortly.I rushed to my mate’s office and smiled, “She finished. Let’s go.” Isaac beamed, “Okay.” He jumped up and we left. He started to head toward the truck and I shook my head, “It’s going to take longer to get me in there than it would to just walk.” Isaac chuckled, “Okay, then. I’ll push your chair then.” I nodded, “Okay.”We made it to the school in a couple minutes because Isaac decided to run most of the way. We went to the principal’s office and we found him trying to seduce his secretary by kissing her neck. Isaac cleared his throat and we watched him look at us while continuing his seduction.When he realized it was us, he stood straight up, cleared his throat and stuttered, “A-Alpha, L-Lu-Luna, how may I help you?” I just shook my head in disappo
The next morning at breakfast, Franco asked, “Alpha, is it okay if one of my little brothers comes down for a visit?” Isaac nodded, “Of course. How old is he?” Franco smiled, “He wants to look for his mate. He is sixteen.” I smiled, “Make sure to take him around the whole pack. Is he planning to spend a couple days?”Franco nodded, “He was planning to stay at least a couple of days. If he finds his mate in your pack, he is planning on asking permission to build a house.” Isaac agreed, “Of course he can. I will always welcome new pack members.”I reminded my mate, “I will be going to the school with Heather this morning to give permission for her to take the test to graduate early.” Isaac asked, “Isn’t she a bit young for that? She’s not even in high school yet.” I laughed, “She will be fine. She just isn’t being challenged enough right now. She wants to start college.”Isaac raised his brows at Heather, “Are you still wanting to be a doctor?” Heather nodded, “I am. I want to have my l
When we got to the kitchen table, everyone was there and Aadi looked like she was ready to burst. I chuckled, “Aadi, would you like to tell us your news first?” She laughed, “You got a visit too, didn’t you?” I nodded, “I did. But I will let you tell everyone what she told you first.”She grinned, “I know the path for both sets of twins.” Franco asked, “You do?” She nodded as she continued to tell everyone at the table everything the Goddess told me. She looked at me and asked, “Do you have anything to add?” I shook my head, “Nope. That covers everything she told me. I’m excited for them and they haven’t even been born yet.”Blaine asked, “Did she say when they would shift for the first time?” I answered, “I know your siblings will shift as toddlers. She didn’t give a specific age.” Aadi answered, “She didn’t tell me anything about when ours will shift.” I added, “But I would assume that if they were meant to go through everything together, then they would all shift together.”Heather
The meeting ended up lasting until late into the night as every unmated she-wolf wanted to see if Ben was their mate and we answered unending questions about the babies. I finally turned to Isaac and asked, “I wonder how many ways we can say that we don’t know what their path is?”Isaac laughed, “I don’t know, but I’m starting to wish we had not said anything about them.” I shrugged, “They’re just curious. All of our other kids had a purpose, so they are wondering about what will happen with these babies.” Isaac agreed, “I can understand that, but we already told them before the meeting ended that we didn’t know yet.”When we finally got home, it was late and even my night owl, Blaine, was ready to fall into bed when we got home. We said goodnight to the kids and went straight to our room. As soon as we were ready for bed, Isaac got under the covers and held his arm out to me.When I got under the covers, I immediately scooted over and tucked myself in with my head on my love’s chest
When we went home for dinner that evening, Heather and Blaine were clueless. However, Aadi was nearly bouncing off the walls in excitement, “Was I right?” I laughed, “You were.” Aadi giggled and hugged me, “I knew it! I’m so happy!” Isaac laughed, “There is some additional news. When we all sit at the table, we’ll tell all of you.”An hour later, we all sat at the table for dinner. Isaac sat his phone in the middle of the table, “I have Lena on the phone so she can hear the news too.” I smiled, “That’s an amazing idea.”I then turned toward the phone, “Hey baby girl! How are my grandbabies?” She giggled as she answered, “Growing like weeds! They’re starting to crawl already.” I smiled, “That sounds like so much fun.” She laughed, “It is. It’s exhausting too.”As soon as Heather and Blaine sat at the table, I started, “Well, I went to my regular doctor today. I am officially one week pregnant.” There were cheers around the table and on the other end of the phone. Isaac added, “There is
One week later, I was eating breakfast with my mate and Aadi when a queasy feeling took over my body. I rushed to the bathroom and lost every bit of the breakfast I had eaten. As I rinsed my mouth and used mouthwash, Onyx advised, “You should go to the doctor today.” I smiled, “I will do that. Thanks.”I went back to the table and drank more coffee. Aadi smiled, “Are you going to the doctor today?” I chuckled, “Onyx is telling me to, so I guess I better go.” Isaac asked, “Do you want me to come with you?” I nodded, “I think you should.”He asked, “What are we going to the doctor for?” I raised my brows at him, “You didn’t know what I was doing in the bathroom?” He shook his head, “To be honest, I was mind linking Stone with something I needed him to do today.” I smiled, “I’m pretty sure we are going to have a baby.”Isaac jumped out of his chair and let out a huge celebratory howl then knelt by my chair to look me in the eyes, “Are you sure?” I nodded, “Onyx is telling me I am and tha
I sat on Doctor Spink’s exam table after all of the x-rays and ultrasounds had been completed. I knew Isaac was nervous because he couldn’t sit down at that moment if he tried. Doctor Spink asked, “Are you having any pain at all now?” I shook my head, “No, just itching from the incision.” She sighed, “Yeah, that’s a common issue. Some lotion with Aloe in it should help that.”Doctor Spink took a deep breath and let it out audibly, “Well, it looks like the surgery was a big success. I see very minimal scar tissue now. There are no obstructions anywhere, so you should be okay to start trying for a baby. I would like to see you again in a year just to make sure the scar tissue didn’t come back. Otherwise, you can see your local doctor for prenatal care.”I smiled through my tears as Isaac held me, “Thank you so much. You have no idea how much we appreciate this.” She chuckled, “Oh, I think I do.” Isaac had tears falling as he shook the doctor’s hand, “Thanks so much, Doctor. This means
The drive home would have been excruciating if they hadn’t pumped me full of painkillers before we left. Doctor Spink knew that we had a three-hour drive ahead of us, so she tried to make sure it would be as comfortable as possible and I was so thankful.When we got home, I was gently lifted and placed in my wheelchair, then I was pushed into our house. We were immediately met by Aadi. She asked, “Does she have meds?” Isaac answered, “I need to pick them up from the pharmacy. They loaded her up on pain meds before we left.”Aadi nodded, “She should probably be in bed then. I will take care of her while you go get the meds.” Isaac kissed my forehead, “I’ll be back as soon as possible, love.” He walked out the door and I sighed, “That man is my life. You know that Aadi?” She chuckled, “I know that Zariah. You are his too.”She started pushing my wheelchair into the bedroom when Blaine rolled up to us, “Aadi, will you need help transferring mom?” Aadi chuckled, “I don’t know. She won’t b
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
