"No...th..ing" She stammered and kept looking at Cecelia like she was expecting her to say something. "Is she threatening you?" I asked, and she shook her head, eyes wide. Maybe this is the wrong approach."What's your name?" I asked with a gentle voice."My name is Christina, Luna," she answered."You know I am the Luna, and it's not just a title; it is because I have the Alpha's ears; I am the mother of his children. So if you tell me anything, I will make sure that the Alpha comes to your aid." I finished and held her hand.She looked like she was going to talk, but then the stupid witch hissed."What is all this long sermon for? Are you trying to rub it in my face that he is with you? Can't I discipline a disobedient servant who has the guts to tell me that she cannot get something for me, that she only works for the Alpha? Or did you tell her not to get it for me?"I hissed, then asked Christina, "Do you work for me?"She nodded. "Yes, I work alongside Shantel, and she sent me o
"Are they going to stop kissing anything soon, or should we interrupt to make sure that Claire is okay with this?" I asked Hayden and the men, but they only snickered."I promise you they do not want to be interrupted, and your friend wants this," Hayden replied."How would you know that?" I asked Hayden.He just shook his head. "I just know.""We can smell her arousal from here; that's what Alpha can't say. Can't you see the way she is clinging to him? I won't be surprised if they mate on the cold, hard floor," Josh said and started laughing.Lucien growled, causing Josh to stop laughing and take two steps backward."Next time, you should think before talking," I said. Lucien and Claire disengaged from each other, but they were still holding hands, and her cheeks were flushed. They started coming to us."She looks like a red tomato," Josh whispered, and I smiled."I heard you, Josh. One more word about my mate; I will knock off all your teeth," Lucien threatened.Claire stopped. "Wai
"It was more than wonderful," she answered, and I chuckled."Good for you; now come let me take you to your room," I said, and she followed me."This is the twin's room; they will have plenty of questions for you tomorrow. I told them then that you went out, but will see them tomorrow," I said while leading her to her room."You know I love messing with them, so that means tomorrow will be fun.""Have you eaten? Should I make you something real quick?"She shook her head and said, "No, we stopped at a restaurant and had some steak."I nodded. "Okay, let's get to your room then."We got to her room, and I opened the door and then went in."I will let you get settled in, then we will talk tomorrow," I said, and I was about to close the door when she called my name."Alex, wait, do you have a minute?" She asked, then sat down on the bed.I looked at her in surprise, then nodded, "Of course."I stepped back in and closed the door. She sat down."Do you mind sitting?" She asked, then smile
Hayden and Lucien started to laugh, but Claire whispered, "I will hurt you," and started stuffing food in her mouth.I stuck out my tongue, but then Lily shouted, "That is bad, Mom.""Sorry, princess, it won't happen again," I apologized. I forgot that both of them were here."Serves you right," Claire whispered."I thought we were not supposed to talk while we ate; that is what you and Dad say all the time," Elijah whispered to me, but most people heard him."Yes, Darling. We are just happy to see Aunt Claire, but no other person will talk again," he said while Claire gave me a look. It looks like the children will be teaching us manners today. I smiled at them then started to eat, and after a while, we finished eating. They took the plates to the sink, and I helped the servants clear the table, even though I could feel Hayden's disapproving eyes following me."Time for school. Go get your bag," I said, and they ran inside to get them from the table.I turned back to the table. They
Hayden povMy phone rang, and Lexie turned around since her back was to my front and opened her eyes."Ignore it and go back to sleep," I said, and I started rubbing her sides. She signed, then closed her eyes and placed her head on my heart, then went back to sleep. The phone rang two more times, and it stopped.Jim must have taken a hint and stopped calling since I was not picking up. We had only spoken briefly before I took Lex to lunch. While she was doing her makeup, I rushed out and had a few words with him, and I promised to call him back later to find out if he found anything more. But we came back from that amazing lunch. I did not have any time because we went from feeding the twins, doing their homework and dishes, and then putting them to bed, but then she put her hand on me, and we rushed into bed, falling asleep afterwardI carefully lifted her head and placed it on the pillow, then sat up and quietly left the room with my laptop. I opene
Alex's pov"Bye, mommy and mommy!" the twins shouted."Bye, Lily and Elijah." We answered and watched them run inside the school while Finn and Jax were following them.Hayden started the car while I was still looking at their school."Do you think it is a good idea to have Peter guard me? Just Josh is fine. I can take care of myself, and I don't want him there when me and his mom start trading insults."Hayden shrugged. "He volunteered when I was talking about it with Lucien; I did not force him or even ask him, and I even told him what could happen in there, including throwing insults, and he says that he can handle it."I face-palmed myself. "You don't understand." was all I replied to him because he truly did not understand."No, you are the one thinking that something will go wrong, but I'm sure it won't."I did not say another word; I was just busy staring at our pack members when we stopped in front of the arena, and He kissed me."Have a nice day," h
I screamed and rushed to them, shaking them both."Elijah, Lily, get up," I said, but they did not answer; instead, they kept convulsing and holding their hearts."Help, help!" I screamed, lifting Lily.Peter, Jax, and Josh rushed in immediately, eyes wide."Help me! Something is wrong with the twins!" I screamed without waiting for them to ask me what happened."Call Doctor Joel and Beta Lucien." Josh barked and took Lily from me, and Jax lifted Elijah from the bed, then broke into a run.I tried to follow them, but Peter and Finn pulled me back."Why are you holding me? Let me go now!" I screamed, trying to twist out of their hold."You are not dressed, Luna. Josh and Jax have taken them to the hospital; nothing will happen to them. So get dressed.""I don't care about dressing, my..." I swallowed the remaining words when I looked at myself. I was wearing tiny shorts and my bra. My wrapper must have fallen off when I was screaming. But I did not have to start dressing while my twins
I sat down, counting the minutes waiting for them to get in here because I wanted to have my twins back already.The door opened, and Hayden entered, followed by a blonde woman, then Lucien. The woman walked closer and looked at me like she was trying to decipher me. She was insanely tall, maybe older than me, but not that old, and her eyeballs were all white with no black in them. I tried to look closely to see if it was a contact, but then I caught myself."It is not contacts, that's my original eye color, and you must be Luna Alex," she said, stretching out her hand."Yes, and you must be the seer," I replied, taking her hand."Yes, I am, and my name is Heaven; I already met your mate."I nodded. "Thank you for coming at this hour of the night to help us.""It's no longer night; it's already one in the morning. Those are the kids, right?" She asked and pointed at where the kids were.I nodded. "Yes."She started to go to them, then I followed her, and so did Hayden. He stood beside
