Laura povI stand staring at Lawrence in absolute shock and worry."your my mate",he growls."this is insane what is moon goddess doing?",he stares down at me and I feel nervous. "I told you what is going on Lawrence I don't know why you insist we are mates. I feel so lost",I feel sadness hit. Moon goddess has a warped sense of fucking humor. She made such a stink over Jonathan, Kat and myself try this mate shit but then gives me a mate. She gives me what I want but won't let me feel the bond or tingles. Tear fill my eyes as I turn away not wanting everyone to see me break down."let's go talk somewhere",he moves in front of me and wipes my cheeks. I sniffle. This can't be happening all I ever known and wanted was Jonathan. Walking to my place I'm still crying as Lawrence walks beside me. He looks mad but doesn't voice it.Once inside we sit down and I start talking."three years ago my sister decided to fake kill me, he growled loud, she is dead now so no worries. Anyway she kept m
Jonathan povThe surgery seem to take forever and I couldn't sit still so pacing helped. Laura managed to get Joshua to sleep which I was thankful for but Helen kept giving them the evil side eye."doesn't make sense that your letting a person that tried to kill your son hold him",she glared at Laura. "I'm right here Helen and Kathryn let her hold him when she got sick so back off",she didn't look happy at all."stop right now Helen we are here for Jonathan and Kathryn not here for you to flip out about shit we have no business in",Duke growled at her."it is my business, she snarled, my daughter is my business and her, she pointed at Laura, tried to kill both in two different attacks. Her being here isn't safe for my daughter or grandson ",Duke growled loud at her and she backed down. "either know your place or fucking leave, I growled at her, who we decide to be around is not your concern or business. I told you I'm alpha and you need to back down. Anymore disrespect and I will or
Kat povI go visit my mom and I am let in but she looks pissed."so you came without alpha bitch",I ignored her insult to my mate."mom you know this isn't right, she glared at me, you refuse to see Duke",she sighed."I almost refused to see you as well. All of you put me here for depression ",she loved to accuse everyone else but herself. "you know damn well postpartum depression isn't the only thing mom, she sighed, ever since your first mate left you with me you haven't been right. I fucking know your still harboring pain over that. You never got closure",her eyes filled with tears. I nailed that nail on the head."you wouldn't understand Kathryn, she growled, you don't know what I went through ",here we go the pity party again."oh I understand more than you think mother, she glared at me, Jonathan didn't want me at all and was loud and clear on the way here. Most pack members accepted me but others didn't. Laura was the greatest Luna and he told me that. She was perfect I wasn't
Duke povI stay in the hospital with Lucas and don't care if beta duties get fine or not. Lucas is sedated so he rest and not stress to breathe. Helen is led in and I ignore her still."Duke please look at me",I don't I can't with out flipping my shit on her."no",I say with anger and she sniffles. I watch Lucas breathe and pray he will never okay soon."I'm sorry I was so mean Duke, she starts talking, I didn't mean to be like that. I'm sorry I said you and Jonathan were like my ex mate your both not. I'm sorry you feel I don't love Lucas or you, she sniffles, I do love you both and I know now I should of got therapy years ago. I'm getting it now",yeah a little late for it now. I sigh."congrats Helen",her face falls but fuck that she did all of this and my trust and love will be earned back. I stroke Lucas's cheeks and stand up. "I'm sorry Duke",she looks at me but I walk out. Jonathan linked me so I have to go to his office.Once in his office he looks tired but mad as well."how
Jonathan povThe meeting went okay but pack members were fearful now. Training was set up and Lawrence's pack was included and many looked at us weird for getting along so well. Pups were in daycare with guards because I knew deep down the war was about their wolfs. My son and Duke's son had extremely strong wolves like us and thet would rule a large pack in the future. Both needed to live to have a future and I would do what I must to ensure they survived. "we start training tomorrow and I mean we train for every scenario. Our pups have to live so the Fury pack has a future. Meeting adjourned ",many leave worried and I can feel through the pack bond fear. I watch Duke sigh as he sits beside me thinking. "bro I don't know this feels weird",he mumbles looking at me. He still has dark circles and I believe he lost some weight over this. Helen requested a visit bit he hasn't gone to see her yet."we got this Duke, he sighs, go visit your mate she requested to see you",he sighed."right
Johnathan povDuke hasn't woken up yet and I'm worried he may not because of the poison. He survived surgery which is good but I need him awake and by my side to fight."why hasn't he woken up yet?",Helen paces patting Lucas's back. "he needs time",I growl annoyed with her. She asked a million questions after doc walked away and I was beyond annoyed with her. I answered till they became the same questions but worded differently. "don't snap at me Johnathan I'm just worried about my mate",she is ridiculous. "funny your all fucking worried about him now but before you only cared about yourself. You didn't ask about your son or mate so do me a favor shut up. If not take your ass back to the mental wing of this hospital ",her and Kat gasped. "Johnathan ",Kat said startled. "no I'm dick of her bitching and sparky opinions. Your mate picked up the ball you dropped and didn't bitch once but he sure as fuck questioned your mate bond and love. You got hung up on the worthless drunk that l
Duke povGetting called that my mate was having a panic attack scared me. She was struggling to breath after seeing something outside her hospital window. They had to sedate her again and I tried to talk to her through mind link but was blocked. I saw her in agony on the video and struggling to even talk. "Helen I'm here",I said close to her still form. She was sedated and had bruises on her wrist and arms from being held down. I couldn't be pissed because she literally panicked. Jonathan said this one looked worse than last one but I stopped watching and rushed to her side.Hours later she woke confused and scared while I sat watching her."hey sweetheart",she looked around trying to focus."he was out there",she slurred and tried to get up."stop it Helen, I ordered, who is he? why is he out there?",her eyes filled with tears and my gut clenched. Jonathan walked in and she sat up but couldn't hold herself up right. "he is out there",she said to him. He looked at me with shock and w
Johnathan povKat and I had Lucas and I had to tell her that her sperm donor was here. He was with the Rogues and I knew this would cause issues for her and Helen."your mom is at Duke's house getting rest and hopefully food",she looked awful."good I can't stand hospitals ",she rocked Lucas who was staring at her. I don't blame him she was stunning. "I ordered her to eat",she sighed. I still had issues getting Kat to eat right so I know Duke had his hands full. "mom was always thin and unfortunately I know why",she kissed Lucas when he made cute noises."I bet he caused her to think she was fat but she isn't and neither are you",she blushed. I loved my mate beyond words but I wished she ate more."Duke said he will make sure she knows he wants her but baby, I waited for her eyes to meet mine,if your dad tries anything Duke will kill him",she sighs."I don't know him Jonathan and I don't have a father daughter relationship with him so him dying won't affect me",I kiss her and take Lu
Duke pov Jonathan and I began training our boys for their future which I knew would be stressful. It was tedious both both excelled at learning for their positions. "good job boys",we finished the training and headed home. Next week was paperwork training which I knew both would hate. We don't always fight which I know both like to do. We train everyday to stay strong but learning the full beta and alpha positions comes with work you will hate. I don't know what I'm going ti do when I finally hand over the reigns since I've been in this position since I was eighteen. "I'm hungry ",both mumbled. "we ate before training ",I'm shocked. "growing boy dad",is said as they run off. I get a frantic dad mom fell before I'm racing to my mate scared shit less. Busting in the door I brace myself for the worst. "I'm okay I swear",I hear her as Lucas panics. "don't move!",he screams at her. "you did not just yell at me young man",she pipes back. "yes I did your being stubborn you fell h
May povIt has been years since the warlock and rogue attack and our combined pack and coven has flourished. Lucas is about to shift at thirteen into his wolf and his training will begin to control his wolf. Duke has been worried for years and I can't say I blame him. Lucas is extremely strong and watching him with his siblings brings me joy."mom, I turn to see Lucas covered in mud, I'm home",I gasp as the twins are also muddy."what on earth?",they look guilty but Duke walking in carrying the others makes my eyes go huge."we are sorry",all the kids chime in."who is going to clean this up?",I start to tear up I just cleaned the house. I'm expecting a pup next month and I'm nesting already."baby no don't cry, Duke begs and the kids look frantic as I sniffle, we will clean it",I turn and wipe my cheeks. "I'm sorry mama",is said as they hurry to the bathrooms. We moved because we have more pups and Duke loves it. We needed more room for them anyway. I feel arms wrap around my waist a
May pov Two weeks went by and I'm training daily to prepare for only goddess knows. Faith is the main one I train with and I absolutely love her. Morganna has been awesome and doesn't fight me on stuff just helps. "good job today May",Faith smiles as we drink from our water bottles. "thanks Faith I appreciate all the help",I drink more. "your a fast learner and I find you easy to train",we both chuckle. "thanks your the best teacher ever",we wrap up and I head home my guards beside me. "are you hungry May?",I nod no as we walk. "Duke said to order food and meet him in the office",I nod and pull out my cell phone. After ordering I head to see my man and get some kisses. He looks thrilled to see me and I'm kissing him till a throat clears. "who is this Duke?",a voice breaks my happy mood and I turn to see a female I never met before. "Fern this is my mate May",she looks me over and I see disgust enter her eyes. Duke misses it but I don't. "baby this is Fern the alpha's daught
Duke pov I'm hugging May tight as she sobs in my neck. Jonathan and the witches run in and take in our living room which has chunks of human everywhere. "holy shit!",Jonathan exclaims looking at us. "I killed him!",May sobs loud. "baby you saved my life he was about to kill me",I felt her trembling. "I just snapped",she cried and next thing I know human bomb exploded all over our living room",fuck it is nasty. I ease us up and cough a little. My throat is sore as hell. "so Duke is the thing that triggers your witch",Liza looks around amused. "this is not fucking funny Liza, May scolds her, I know he was a bad person but I just killed him",May growls. "I don't find it funny May I find it awesome the others coming won't hesitate to kill everyone you love even your pups so one piece of shit down many more to go",she makes my skin crawl at times. "your blood thirsty,May glares at her, this will be your downfall",I'm shocked but I know her witch half is still on edge. "I'm spea
May povMy mate is laying there passed out and blood drips from his mouth. My witch whimpers seeing him like this. Mate is cried out and I swiftly come down and run to him. I was floating briefly but I feel powerful now."Duke",I cry touching him."May let us help",Faith moves to me."Duke",I sob wanting him awake."we healed him May, she touches my arm, he is alive". "thank you",I face my coven and get smiles.Jonathan helps Duke up and he even looks relieved he will be okay but I'm devastated. "Duke please wake up",I feel panicked. He has to wake I can't do this."he will my grand high witch", is voiced as all the witches stand and chant. Duke coughs and wakes with a start. He quickly gathers me tight to him while I cry."you did good my love, he cups my face and wipes my cheeks, I'm so proud of you baby",he holds me tight to him. "I love you",I collapse in his hold tight as pats my back."I'm fine",he sighs. I was so scared of losing him that I forget we are in a room full of peo
May pov I'm no leader I am stunned by the way things turned out. My mom is dead thanks to Fred and his assholes and apparently she left the witches to me. "thousands of witches want to join our pack",Jonathan sits stunned. "maybe I should leave",May utters tearing up. "what!?",I growl and she whimpers. "thousands of witches want to join so I can lead them Duke and werewolves hate witches, I state, I bet soon everyone here will hate me for being what I am",she chokes up. "no the fuck we won't, a warrior speaks up, your our beta female and we will never hate you",she hiccups as he looks down at her. She smiles a teary smile as he clears his throat and apologizes for talking that way. "its okay, I smile at him and he blushes, I was just thinking out loud. You would be okay being around witches?",he nods. "yes ma'am I don't judge others for their heritage or what they got at birth. Your are also half werewolf so to us your family as well",I teared up and wiped my cheeks. "thank
Duke pov "go go witch power",she said waving her hands it has been a few days of her saying random phrases and Johnathan and I losing it. I haven't laughed this hard in forever. "baby",I kiss her head."go...go...gadget arm",I'm howling and so is Johnathan as she keeps going."inspector gadget, I laughed loud, really my love?",her blush made me happy."I'm trying what I can, she sighed, up...up...and away",Jonathan looks so happy as he watches her trying to make her magic work. I sigh as she thinks of more phrases to try."baby relax",she scrunches her face." supercalifragilisticexpialidocious",she says and we howl in full belly laughs. The guards turn their back to us to compose themselves. "May,I pant, please stop baby",My stomach hurts from laughing so hard." the web ,go web go spider web",she is trying anything even Spiderman."Go Go Power Rangers Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" at this point me and Jonathan don't know what to do with ourselves as we're on the floor still laughi
May povI wake in tears because now we got two more pups. What if he leaves me over this?"I'm sorry Duke",I whimper as he rushes to me"hey my love it is okay we just got blessed with more that is all",he wipes my tears. My stomach went completely flat once our son came out. Doc delivered my placenta and made sure I was good to go before they focused on our pups. Both were healthy and sleeping."but it is two more I thought one was in there Duke",I sobbed. "baby I don't care how many you bless me with as long as your all healthy and safe. I really love you baby",I reach for a hug and he holds me tight kissing me. I need comfort and I hear Silas purr for me.Duke povMay refused to let go so I had to crawl in bed with her so she would settle down. "don't leave me",she whispers as sleep takes her again. I wouldn't leave her for nothing. I kissed her head and looked towards the door and swore I seen Helen smiling as she vanished. I'm a little surprised so I mind link Jonathan."bro I
May povHe rushed in and begged me to believe him and I do but it still hurt to hear. I'm pregnant so my hormones are crazy and hearing you won't amount to the level of love he had for her is devastating. The whole way home Travis tried to comfort me but I stayed quiet. I Iove him with my whole heart and I know he still loves her and I can't fault him over that. I'm the second chance and I'm the fill in. I sobbed before I started dinner so my mind would stop running to that. Thoughts are ugly at times and I wish I could forget everything I heard. "smells good",he rubs my belly and kisses my neck. I want to pull away but I don't. "I wanted to try it",I say softly. I can't seem to stop crying and I blame my pregnancy hormones. He just holds me and I let him. "I'm sorry you got hurt again baby I hate that bitch for putting the thoughts you aren't enough for me because you are. Your my everything and I love you May. Completely, Utterly and with my whole heart",he kisses my mark and I s
