Chapter 19Gabriel"It was weird for me to sit around a dining table with people other than my parents, I couldn't even remember the last time a sat down to have dinner with them, I should start thinking of how to make it up to them and start creating free time to spend with them. Maybe Rachel would like to go with me.My mind wanders away like this for a bit, before I remember something I want to talk to Rachel about."Hey, Rachel?" I asked sweetly and she glares back at me.Aww. I feel the love."What?" She snapped at me and my wolf sighed in contentment after hearing our mate's voice. "So pathetic "."What do you think of Steve as my beta?" I asked and she snorted on the water she was drinking." What ?" She chokes out her cough."I had plans to make Steve my beta, am curious to know what you thought about my decision". I say simply and her brow raises in disbelief."Why?" She asked and both her parents sit quietly and watch us." Because you will be my Luna and use you know much
Chapter 20She looks so fucking smart when she doesn't stuff like reading." I have never read a book just for the fun of it"."Do you have any book you think I might like?"I asked because I was trying to get on her good side and partly because I don't want to be pathetic and ask her to let me head." Hmm, maybe". S gets out of bed and is wearing a tank top with little pajama shorts and I couldn't help but groan at the sight. She smirks at me like she knows exactly what she is doing before she hands me a book from the shelf." It is a book about a famous general. Their strategies and old letters that they wrote, and things like that". She says with a shrug and climbs back on her bed." That actually does sound good". I admit before removing my shoes and sitting on the floor next to her bed where my pillow and blanket from last night still lay.I kept adjusting my position, making a show of trying to get comfortable. I turn to lean my back against her bed, making the bed shake and I
Chapter 21His evil plan is working on me, I can't allow that to happen.I have a few online classes to work on, so I decided to go to the library, changing my environment always seems to help me focus, I'm not sure how long I have been engrossed in my book before I hear the front door slam shut and loud booming voice." There you are, I have been looking everywhere for you sweetheart". Gabriel yells across the building making my face heat up in a blush, he is bound over to me and sits next to me on the couch, slinging his hand over my shoulder and kicking his feet up on the table."Gabriel" I yelled in a low voice. "This is a library, you are supposed to be quiet". I say and he looks confused."Really?". He asked, looking around him. I thought that was just in movies and stuff" I rolled my eyes at him and looked back at the screen."What are you studying?" He asks, looking down at my computer before he gags at the image of a cadaver. "What the fuck is that?" He yells and I smark his
Chapter 22" Thank you, Gabriel, but no one wants me here". I said sadly. He sighs and works over to me, wrapping his arms around my waist."I wasn't you here sweetheart, everyone else will learn to deal with it, once they spend more time with you they will see just how amazing you are. Just like I do". He murmurs, tucking his face into my neck, allowing him the contact as it feels soothing to me. I wrapped my arms around him and he was still for a moment before melting into my touch."Let me think about it, okay?" I ask pulling away and give him a small smile. He nodded, his green eyes sparkling. He reaches out and grabs a cookie, shoving the whole thing into his mouth." Hey! Those are mine" I yelled and he gave me a smug grin."They will only become yours if you agree to move in. Thinking about it means you have the share". He smiles, handing me one as I giggle at him." How did you know about my obsession with Oreos?" I asked curiously, digging into my snack l. He shrugs and hit m
Chapter 23"I'm allowing Rachel to leave". I said and everyone except her looked alarmed. I felt a pang of hurt through our bond with her, but I tried to ignore it.What do you mean? Dad asked and I could see his anger rising."I thought about what you said, Rachel. About how I put myself first, you are right like you usually are. So I want you to go out there and do what makes you happy, I have spoken to two of our allied packs. They have permitted you to come to stay with them for a week. In three weeks you will go and experience other packs. They are all allied so you should be safe with them, but I did like you to take Ethan with you. When you get back you will decide to give me a chance, a real chance or you will decide if you want to transition to another pack and I will accept your rejection and let you go". I finished my word and everyone looked astonished, Rachel the most.Gabriel! You have to think of what is best for the pack first. My dad yells in anger, making everyone bu
Chapter 24RachelWaking up next to Gabriel is much nicer than I ever thought it was going to be. He is warm and soft and I just want him to stay curled around me forever. And then I remember the sacrifice he is making for me. I couldn't imagine how much it would hurt him to let me leave. Spending that much time away from your mate will hurt both him and his wolf. I honestly didn't think he had it in him, the willingness to put himself aside for a moment shows a side of him I would have begged for years ago. The thought makes me sigh as I watch him sleep, I reach out and trace his cheekbones down his strong jaw. The overwhelming feeling of sadness sweeps over me and I know that I will undoubtedly miss him. At least this new man I am going to see, suddenly his hand snapped up and snatched mine. I look back at his eyes to see them twinkling in mischief. He smiled at me a little before kissing my fingertips."What are you doing, sweetheart?" He said his voice was deep and raspy from his
Chapter 25" How much longer?" I asked " Ethan will be here in the next twenty minutes ". He says and I nod before flying myself back on the bed, on top of him. He grunted at the contact but wraps his arms around me firmly and pulls me up to rest on his shoulder where I just seem to fit. I feel his body relax under me, but I still feel waves of sadness crash into me from him." You will call me every night?" He asks his voice raspy like he is fighting back emotions. I nod and press a kiss on his neck making him shiver."Maybe more than that" I admit , surprised by my own emotion. I can feel his smile against my forehead as he plants kisses along my head. I let out a contented sigh and closed my eyes absorbing his heat and affection. We lay in companionable silence until he clears his throat." Ethan's here, sweetheart ". He says with one last squeeze . I nod and stand up trying to avoid looking at him, scared that I will cry." Hey you alright?" He asks, rubbing his hands up and do
Chapter 26"Hi, I'm Dave ". He says in his high pitched child voice and holds out his hand for a shake."Hi, I'm Rachel". I tell him, gripping his hand. Ethan gets the same introduction and then the boy climbs on my lap, surprising me. Based on the look on his father's face, he's surprised too." How old are you?" I ask the little boy.Four, he responded and I nodded with a little smile.He sit on my lap and plays with my hair while his father explain the basic if the pack, the schedule for the day, where I am to meet people to your thing and where Ethan and I will be staying. Dave must have gotten tired of his father's spiel as he rest his head in my shoulder . I rub his back gently and before long the little fellow had fallen asleep m, much to everyone amusement.I'm sorry, he has never done that before. Alpha says and I waved off his concern." It's fine, he is precious". I say looking at him affectionately before handing him to his father.I will show you the house you will be sta
Chapter 94Ethan became emotional as his bride walked up to him. The wedding was officiated by the Alpha of the pack,Alpha Gabriel. They were both directed to say their vows and then the joining vine was tied on their hands before they were declared married.Before the Alpha directed them to kiss themselves, Ethan had covered Accalia's mouth passionately, leaving the guests screaming, pleasurably. The couple walked out excitedly hand in hand amidst cheers from everyone.With no delay,they all moved to the wedding reception dinner held at Ethan's home. The place was decorated beautifully and guests were directed to sit at the long table,filled with assorted food,cake,meats and wine.Ethan and Accalia took their place at the head of the table. Everyone had their plates full with whatever food they chose,dished by one of the staff. Helen sat close to Max and occasionally,she would help Adam to some food, especially the meats that he had an issue, cutting into pieces.Alpha Gabriel helped
Chapter 93Accalia gave a light laugh to everyone's surprise. "It was beautiful",she gasped as she was helped to sit up by Ethan."My mother was thrilled to see me. Same with my dad. They looked happy and blessed me. They made me promise to love you with all of my heart", Accalia said pointing to Ethan who was smiling in relief."Ahh! Who knew you could take all of that in?"Helen asked with surprise."I didn't say it,but I wanted to know how I became an Omicron. I needed to ask my parents. And I'm happy I did get answers. It turns out my late great grandfather was an Omicron before he died", Accalia said."They explained the ways of an Omicron to me and what I shouldn't do to avoid me getting in trouble. I really needed to hear what I heard, honestly", Accalia said, relieved."Wow! That's good. Each werewolf has its way,so it's good that you've found your own kind to speak to you",Alpha Max said."But.. something else was there, isn't it? We saw you jerking violently in torments", Gab
Chapter 92Just as Helen was stomping off angrily,she walked in on Gabriel and Ethan having a light conversation. The men noticed the foul mood, Helen seemed to be in and they got curious."Is everything okay?", Ethan asked looking around for Accalia."That depends! Ask your wife!",she said and walked off. Immediately,she said that, Ethan was taken aback at her response and he flinched. Helen had never been that rude to him. Dashing into the room,he left Alpha Gabriel,who was trying to pacify Helen in search of Accalia. He hoped there was nothing wrong with her.Ethan breathed out in relief when he swiftly opened the door and met Accalia and Rachel having a low conversation. Although, Rachel looked gloomy,he was relieved there was nothing wrong with her.He breathed the air and caught the whiff scent of a growing foetus and paused. Ethan tried to ascertain where the scent came from when his wolf eyes scanned through the ladies,and spotted a growing and kicking foetus in Rachel.Ethan
Chapter 91Accalia and Ethan got back to town quite late and they decided she was sleeping over at his place. Helen was arriving in town the next day,so Accalia had to meet her early and try her dress, before people would flock in to say hello to the Luna of the Northern kingdom.Accalia got up early,whipped some breakfast for Ethan who was still in bed before dashing out. She was in a hurry. Few steps from arriving at Rachel's home,she saw Helen arrive. She walked with two people who helped her around with her bags."Helen! I'm sorry Luna!", Accalia screamed excitedly.The ladies shared a warm hug and after some time,they disentangled from the hug. Accalia politely greeted the entourage that came with Helen and they bowed respectfully at her. Helen looked glorious and happy."Good thing I ran into you first, before the whole town hears that the Queen of the North is here. We should meet up with Rachel inside", Accalia said taking the bag of clothes from her."Right away!", Helen affi
Chapter 90The news of Accalia and Ethan's engagement was received well by everyone. The town wasn't exactly surprised because they had expected it, seeing how much Ethan loved Accalia. The couple had decided to make their wedding a very simple one attended by only close friends and family.Ethan still had his quiet personality but since he and Accalia got together,he was less of an introvert.When the news got to Helen in her kingdom,she was elated. She made Accalia promise to allow her make her gown for the day. Accalia didn't want the loud and large gown,but a unique gracious gown,fit for her.Accalia was going to move out of the house,soon to live with Ethan in his bigger house,so they decided to have a simple wedding by the side of the brook by Accalia's house,while the wedding dinner would take place at Ethan's home.With their decision to have a smaller wedding, Accalia and Ethan had few things to do. They had chosen their outfits and food for friends,so all that was left was t
Chapter 89It was just a week after Helen and Max's wedding but yet things had gone back to normal. But of course,the stories about the wedding was still in the news,with people reliving the memories.Life had gone back to normal for Accalia and she had started her oils and perfumes production,when she was back from the wedding. Ethan would always check up on her if she needed anything,but truly he was just being careful that she didn't fall unconscious again.It was a rainy morning and since, Accalia couldn't go out to sell some oils,cause of the rain,she decided to cook herself some hot oatmeal with raisins. She had just poured some of the oats into the boiling water and began to stir slowly,when she heard a knock on her window.The rain hit harder,so she didn't see clearly from the window but she knew that only one person would come in the rain to visit her. She rushed to the door and opened to Ethan,who was drenched with water. "Baby! To what do I owe this surprise?",she said tea
Chapter 88The wedding finally came to its end and the newly married couple waved their byes to all their guests, from far and near and thanked everyone who had gifted them. Max's chambers was quiet and the golden lamps in the large corridor gave the house a soothing feeling. Max held Helen's hands as they walked to their room. Adam had slept off earlier and his nanny had tucked him bed.Alpha Max had instructed all the staff that worked in his home, to go back home and get some rest with his families, because he wanted to be with his wife,and didn't want anyone to interfere or eavesdrop on them.Werewolves had a fantastic sense of hearing and he didn't want anyone to hear the moans that would escape from his wife's mouth. Helen stepped into the room and for the first time in the day,she breathed out.Max went behind her and unzipped her dress and the material fell to the ground, revealing Helen's underwear and corset top. He also helped her to unhook it and gently massaged the lines
Chapter 87Soon Accalia, began to feel warm smiles and hugs from everyone. People were impressed at how lively she was, and not even showing any sign of pain. Accalia bowed to the old Alpha and Alpha Gabriel."You look beautiful,dear and thank you for coming back home to us", Alpha Gabriel said, ignoring her bow and hugging her instead."Thank you my Alpha,it's good to be home",she replied."And if it isn't the strong and brave Accalia, who decided to gift us her treasured presence at my wedding", Alpha Max said cheerfully and hugged her from behind."It's my pleasure to bother the handsome groom with my unnoticed presence. Why would I miss the delicious meals,we planned to have on the menu today?", Accalia joked and Max was thrown in fits of laughter."Thank you for coming back",Max said and Accalia bowed politely.Ethan was about to wrap his hands around Accalia when several hands knocked his off and hugged Accalia instead. It was Eunice and her friends. They all looked beautiful in
Chapter 86" Baby I don't care about what or who you turned to. I'm just glad you are back. I was loosing my mind, everyone was", Ethan said holding Accalia's face on his hands.Her face had received some of its glow and her smile was still as beautiful as ever. She smiled at him and they kissed. It wasn't a kiss based on lust. It was a passionate kiss of hope and contentment."Your face and love we shared was the one thing I held on to in that dark place,I found myself", Accalia said."I have gone through so many hateful and frightening things in my existence but your love was the gleam of hope that led me through it all",She said."And I'm sure that of Helen and Rachel, especially Helen's loud chatter and laughter", Accalia joked.Ethan still stared at her dumbstruck at how lively she became from the motionless being she had been for several weeks. He was certain the whole town would erupt in excitement. "Ethan? Where is everyone? Did they give up on me already?",she asked suddenly
