Worst case scenario: a head just flies off. Problem solved *dusts hands off*
THEO Jackson and I sat side by side as we watched as Brynn and Mira worked on sparring. It had become part of their daily routine for the past few weeks. Mira started out with barely any stamina or strength, but she worked her ass off and had made great progress thus far. Integrating her into our little family was not difficult at all. The transition was smooth as if it was always meant to be this way. Every time she called me Papa made my heart feel full. I had never really thought about when I would become a father, but I knew that I would one day, either biologically or through adoption. Mira was our miracle that came when we least expected but wholeheartedly accepted. “I think that Mira’s going to be able to kick your ass sooner or later,” Jackson said, smirking at me. I chuckled and nodded. It was a fact that I loved because it meant that she would be able to protect herself. It made me proud. “You’re absolutely fucking right about that. Look at who’s training her. Brynn’s a
THEO This would either be a flawless mission or a fuckshow waiting to happen. There was so much riding on today’s meeting. The Council was extremely impressed that my girl was able to secure the meeting. Those involved were Brynn, me, Jackson, and Diego would be our limo driver. There were specialized cameras and mics that were undetectable by tech scanners. They were the Council’s designs. I had one on the first button of my dress shirt. Brynn had one in the necklace they loaned her. Tris was not entirely excited about this mission because she was unable to accompany her daughter, but she swore that she would watch over Mira for us. We would be home before bedtime if all went well, but we had to be prepared for anything. “You two look like a million bucks,” Diego said as he appraised our suits. I was wearing a tailored black suit with pure gold cufflinks. The gray tie had a diamond encrusted V on it to symbolize the Veritas pack. Brynn looked like a fucking siren in her sleevel
BRYNN It was a great thing that we were dealing with idiots. They always made our work easier, so we definitely were not complaining. We were told to follow the red Porsche, so that was what we were doing. She was leading us right into the heart of their pack. “I believe it’s a safe assumption that it went well?” Diego asked, humor evident in his voice. “Oh, it went really fucking well. Make sure you watch the recap of it later on. These two make this shit look like a walk in the park,” Jackson stated proudly. Humans had many rules that had to be followed for undercover work. The Council’s rules worked like this: we could not hand over a loaded gun and tell that person to shoot someone or else they would die. However, what Theo and I did earlier was fine. We enticed them and incentivized their involvement. The bitch had every right to say no, but she did not. Therefore, she opened the doorway for us. Likewise, she invited us into the pack. It was recorded, so they would have no ro
THEO The undercover infiltration went a lot easier than we thought it would. I had to give it to my girl that she was a fucking badass extraordinaire in all things. She was a pro with it even though she was new to it. She would have made an amazing undercover agent for our pack, but thankfully she had a more important role, which she was also a pro with. My mother insisted that Brynn took to her Luna role better than she had. That was a huge compliment because my mother had been a brilliant and fantastic Luna. One thing that I knew about my mother was that she would never lie about it nor would she pass out that compliment just to boost my girl’s confidence. The Council’s warriors easily detained those who fought against them. People were easily confused, frightened, or angry depending on their role in this pack. Not everyone was innocent here, and we would be idiots if we just blindly accepted them. There was no way that they were unaware of what went on in this pack. It did not ma
BRYNN Theo’s arms snagged around my waist as he pulled me against him as we waited for Lindsey’s portal. ‘Fucking hell, baby. You’re trying to kill me with this getup. Not sure when you bought these leather pants, but you need more of them,’ Theo’s mindlink was dripping with promise. I tilted my hips and rubbed my ass against his crotch. Oh yeah. My man was definitely loving these pants. ‘It’s a good thing that I grabbed six pairs of them in various colors.’ His head dropped against my shoulder as he groaned with that information. I loved messing with him just as much as he loved messing with me. It was great foreplay for later. We were going to go visit with the Alpha and Luna who just got their pack shut the fuck down. Perhaps I could make it entertaining enough that Theo would take me into an empty room and reward me. The rest of our entourage joined us as well. Jackson, our Lamias, Dustin, and Dahlia sidled up. Mira would be spending the day with my mother. They were taking
THEO Jackson and I were head back from a meeting with a neighboring pack. They were hoping to gain our support with trade negotiations with their pack. They would supply us with propriety shifter medicine, formulated for every part of a shifter’s life while we would supply their warriors with specialized training. Mike and Tris definitely fell back into their routine as if they had continued training alongside each other all of these years. I supposed it was like falling off a bike. Many pack members were so fucking excited about the rigorous training protocols that were very serious. My phone started ringing. Why was my mother calling me? “Hey, Mom. What’s up?” I asked her. “Do you know when you’re going to be back here?” Her voice was controlled, but I could still hear some strain in it as well. I looked around where we currently were to determine that. We were not too far from the border. “Twenty minutes or so. Is everything okay?” There was noise in the background that I co
BRYNN We were heading over to Nightshade for a very important meeting. We were not really told anything other than the fact that it tied into the gifted wolves that had been going missing from various packs. It was something that the Council had us all on full-alert for. Nightshade was a sanctuary for gifted wolves. Shadow Falls, Dante’s pack, also had a fair share of gifted wolves as well. Hell, even our pack had quite a few since we were taking them in too instead of it just being those two packs. We were a team after all. “Momma,” Mira said as she skipped into the room. Goddess, she was so adorable in her sundress with the two braids that her father put in her hair. Some might not guess it, but Theo definitely took with ease to being the father of a little girl. She was definitely a daddy’s girl too. “Yes, sweetheart.” “There’s someone that I need to see at the meeting. Can I go with you just for a minute?” she asked with her patented puppy dog eyes that could make even Satan
THEO I did not know Ziyah’s story, but it had to have been really fucking rough for it to elicit that reaction from the vision. I felt an echo of the emotions that my girl experienced from the vision, and that echo indicated that her story was not an easy one. Elle called Brynn out on us expecting, and I was really fucking happy. We both were. My girl was carrying our pup inside of her. I could not wait to see her stomach grow and the first time I got to hold our pup in my arms. Each new first would be absolutely phenomenal just like each new first with Mira was. Ziyah and Dante came back into the room. She held herself with composure even though I was certain she was not feeling that on the inside. I was thrilled that Dante found his mate. Brynn and I had both been immediately fond of him from the first time we met him. There was just something about him that easily drew you in. Not to mention that he had a fucking hilarious wit, which could put anyone at ease. Plus, he saved our
