After filling my plate, Kayla and I sat next to our mates when the leader of the dragon warriors said, "Luna Abby, Kayla, we were just telling Alpha Damien and Beta Zach that, when King Uther told us about who you are and what you did to get our Princess back to us, he asked for volunteers to come here and train with you. Every warrior stepped forward. He left it up to me to pick nine more to come with me. I chose our best nine warriors. I want you to know that you have our undying loyalty." I smiled, "Rescuing your Princess was a no-brainer for us. My mother had a huge part in getting her to safety." He laughed, "We heard. King Uther is talking about putting her in acting classes now". We all laughed and agreed to relax for lunch, then we would go to the conference room and talk strategy. I invited Gabriel over for that part. Gabriel agreed and came over an hour later.
As soon as Gabriel got here, we took him to the conference room with Draco, leader of the dragons an
After thirty minutes of arranging housing for all of the warriors that will be coming, we all stood together, as a group, on the porch of the packhouse, with a microphone in hand, as we watched everyone start running in. By the time everyone was there, we had nearly twenty-five hundred people standing in front of the pack house. I was floored as it finally hit me that I am Luna of all these people. It was such a humbling thought. The gravity of the situation finally hit me too. I felt even more determination to win this war. I could not risk losing even one life. Damien stepped forward, "We have been hinting at some things that would be happening soon, and that time has come. The Alpha from your Luna's and Beta Female's old pack has started an alliance with the vampire kingdom in order to start a war with us. He swears that your Luna will serve him, or she will die," there was a collective growl heard louder than I have ever heard as Damien continued, "The vampires are
Adam POV I told my dad that I was going to see Alpha Damien to talk to him about a possible alliance, since Abby refused to be my Luna. Really, I just went to be able to see her and try to get her back one more time. I really don't give a fuck about her powers. I don't care. I just want her back as my mate. When she walked into the conference room, which was better than what I have, she took my breath away again. She is beautiful. But her scent has changed. She smells like herself, but she also has his scent. I looked at her neck and she has now been marked. Shit! No chance at getting her back now. Now I'm just pissed. So, I try to appeal to her sensitive side and tell her my pack is falling apart, which is true. It's almost like no one gives a shit about anything anymore in
Damien POV I'm sitting here watching my mate train the she-wolves in MMA fighting style and I still have to pinch myself. I can't believe how lucky I am to have such a talented fighter and drop-dead gorgeous she-wolf as my mate. I don't give a shit about her powers, although they are coming in handy in training our warriors. They have become serious warriors with some serious focus and fighting skills. During our meeting when Adriana and Layla showed us what was going on in their old pack, I couldn't help but laugh when Adriana said the shit's about to hit the fan. She is just like her sister. I did put them in charge of keeping an eye on what is going on in that pack. They are very talented using the table, so I'm going to let them experiment with it. I can't
Abby POV Damien immediately mind linked Ely and told him to catch up with my parents and watch them. I called Draco and asked, "Can you have one of your dragons fly over my parents to make sure they aren't kidnapped? If you will come to the conference room, we can show you why." Draco agreed, "I just put one of my guys on it. I'll be there in a minute". When Draco came in, Damien and I told him, with Adriana's and Layla's help, what we learned and what we've done so far. I explained, "My mom just told Damien that she and dad are running in to town for supplies and he immediately had a feeling that they could take my parents to try to get me to go back". Damien put his arms around me, and I buried my face in his chest. I took deep breaths to take in his scent to
When I get to the area outside the woods, where I'm supposed to meet them, I test the spell that Winnie placed on me and thought of the team helping me, "Is everyone there?" I heard, "Yes, we are all here." Yara smiled, "Good. Keep an eye on my girl. I won't be worth shit if we get a shot of wolfsbane." Damien replied, "I know, Yara, just bring our girl home to me." She sighed, "I will, if I can. You all just need to keep an eye on us. I don't trust this situation at all". I continued walking until I saw my parents tied to a tree. I ran to them, untied them, and told them to run. My dad hugged me, "You shouldn't have done this." I argued, "You still have two more girls to finish raising. I need to do this. GO!" My dad took off in the same direction as my mom, then I felt a presence behind me, "So, this is the Luna that has Luna Dina all worked up. You don't look like you could kick anyone's ass." I turned to see the witch. I asked, "Do I know you?" She replies, "We h
Abby POV Is this really happening to me... Again? I feel like my entire body has been crushed. All I can see is black. I can hear Damien; I can't make out was he's saying. "Yara, are you there?" Yara replies, "She really fucked us up this time, girl. I have my work cut out for me this time. It's more than and two-day thing, for sure. Damien is telling Dina he will never have you... even on our worst day." I smiled to myself, "That man loves us a lot, doesn't he?" She smiles, "Girl, you know he does." It was then that I heard him say my name and I wanted to be able to tell him I'm alive. I knew, with werewolf hearing, that he would hear my heartbeat though. I need to conserve as much energy as I can. It's not going to be easy, healing from this one.
I sent a mind link to Leah. M: They? L: (Laughing) TWINS! Alpha, you're going to have twins! M: OH. MY. GODDESS. We have to win this war now. I have to make a better world for our babies! L: You are so funny, Alpha, these babies are going to have the best parents ever. Don't you worry about your mate or your babies. You just concentrate on winning this battle. I joined my warriors, Beau, and Cade on the battlefield. Cade asked how Abby is. I said, "She's going to live. We also found out that we are having pups". Cade looked at me and smiled. Then he and Beau did a double take. I laughed as Beau asked, "Pups... as in more than one?" I nodded and chuckled, "Twins". Both men gave me a high-five, "Congratulations!" I smiled, "Congratulations to both of you... grandpas". Beau laughed, "I don't know if I'm quite ready for that yet." I warned, "Better get ready." That was when we heard Adam's wa
I looked up and saw Adam lunging for my mate. I jumped up and grabbed him before he got to her. I snarled, "You touch one hair on her head and I will rip you apart right here. My mate will not be harmed in a war that she cannot fight in.” I took him out to the hall and told the guards, "Take him to the dungeon." Then I thought of something, "Put him two cells away from Dina," I told them. I can't have either of them trying to help the other escape and I want Adam to be able to hear that fucking whine. How the hell was he able to live with that? It doesn't matter. I will let my mate decide his fate. Besides, we are in the middle of a war. I guess his Beta is now commanding everyone. They are still fighting. I mind link Beau. M: I just found Adam in Abby's room. I have the guards taking him to the dungeons. How are things out there? B: I think the king of the vampires is controlling them! M: Why do you think that?
Twenty Years Later I’m sitting in my favorite spot with my mate sitting behind me in my favorite lounge chair. We are both drinking our morning coffee as two mountain lions walked up to the deck. They both bowed to us, and I smiled, “Good morning, Dusty. Good morning, Lilly.” Dusty found his mate in his own pack on his sixteenth birthday. We had a party for him that night and he introduced her to all of us. She is such a sweet girl I really couldn’t wish for anything better for him. Robert and Katie are so proud of them. They had four children and they only have two still at home. I am so proud of the parents they are. The two children that have already found their mates and left are absolutely awesome. Linden found his mate and decided to build another house close to our land. His mate understands that he needs to be close to family and his siblings are all he has left. His father passed away when my triplets were only two years old. It was an extremely hard time for him. We made s
Robert and Katie laughed and shook their heads as Robert smiled, “Now that would make me rethink my choice to be a parent.” I laughed, “I think she did.” Just then, Calista ran out onto the deck, “Good morning, mom.” She sat in my lap and hugged me tightly. I turned her around and introduced her to them. She smiled, “It’s very nice to meet my Uncle Dusty’s parents. I love him so much!” Katie smiled, “I’m so glad you love him, Calista.” I asked Calista, “Is anyone else up?” She smiled, “Dad is up with Raze and Eva.” I laughed, “Is Willow awake yet?” She shook her head, “She was sleeping peacefully when I came out.” I smiled, “Thank you. I guess you would like some breakfast, huh?” She smiled and shook her head shyly. I smiled, “Okay.” Then I turned to Robert and Katie, “Would you like to join us?” They agreed and followed me and Calista into the house. I cooked a big breakfast and had it all laid on the table. As soon as it was all prepared, it sounded like a herd of horses coming down
When Taylor was done feeding the boys, Evan and I took the boys in the living room to visit with everyone else. Uncle Dax was the first to hold out his arms. Evan smiled as he held out the first baby boy, “You are now holding Cain, and the boy mom is holding is Dylan.” After Doctor Harper was done with Taylor, I walked with her to another guest room in the house and smiled, “I remember how all I wanted after all that was to take a shower. Is that what you would like?” She replied, “Definitely.” I smiled, “You go ahead and take a shower. That shower has a bench in it so you can sit. I would highly recommend using it. I will get you some clothes.” I opened the closet door and found a perfect pair of soft sweatpants and a t-shirt that looked lusciously oversized. I grabbed a pair of underwear and a bra and put them on the bed. When Taylor walked out of the bathroom in a towel, I asked, “Feeling better?” She smiled, “That did feel better.” I got you a comfy pair of sweats and an oversized
Seven months later… Taylor and Evan are staying in the guest house with dad and Linden. Taylor wants me to be there for her when she gives birth. She’s afraid Evan is going to pass out. Evan agrees with her, but he still wants to be there for her and to see his babies being born. He swears we will try his hardest to stay conscious. We all laugh and Elliot smiles, “I don’t blame you, dude. I almost passed out a few times.” We were all eating breakfast one morning when Taylor gasped, “Oh dear. I’m pretty sure I’m in labor.” I smiled, “Evan, you need to be keeping track of how far apart the contractions are. Let us know when they are around five minutes apart. Taylor, you need to tell him when each contraction starts and ends. Okay?” She nodded in reply and I called Doctor Harper. Doctor Harper said she would start driving here now, so we will be ready. Wow. The whole family showed up! Within 2 hours, Elliot and I were sitting in the living room with dad, my mom, Evan’s parents, Aidint
I laughed, “I understand completely.” Calista smiled, “I can sing for you, Uncle Dusty.” He looked at me and I nodded, “Trust me… You want to hear this.” Dusty nodded, “I would love to hear you sing.” Calista started singing the most beautiful and relaxing song I have ever heard and Dusty looks so relaxed and happy. When the song ends, Dusty chuckles, “Calista, you are awesome!” She smiles proudly, “I’m a mermaid/wolf hybrid and an omega. My mom and dad rescued me from my old alpha. He kept me in a tiny room under the stairs in his packhouse. He was planning on marking and mating me. They rescued me just in time.” Dusty asked, “What happened to your family?” She looked down at her hands in her lap, “My old alpha killed my parents and my brother. My parents hid me, but I saw him rip my brother’s head off. But I have mom and dad now and I have the best family ever. I have LOTS of uncles and grandparents and now I have a brother and SISTERS! I really am a lucky girl.” Dusty pulled her clo
One week later… Mom spent the night with us last night because mommy, daddy and sister all needed to get a full night of sleep. We were all starting to get quite cranky. I don’t think I was ever more thankful for my mom when she offered to stay overnight. After feeding the babies at eight pm, I went straight to bed. I think Calista went to bed before I did and Elliot was waiting for me in bed when I got there. We all slept like rocks and I didn’t wake up the entire night. It was my best night’s sleep since the night before I gave birth to all of them. Don’t get me wrong, I love all three of my newborns. But they are definitely little sleep robbers! Ladies, let me give you a bit of advice. When other women tell you to sleep when they sleep, LISTEN! Trust me, it makes perfect sense. If the things you need to do can wait, do it. They have been wearing us all out. Raze has an insatiable appetite. We were at the grocery store yesterday, and a little older lady heard Raze’s hungry screams.
I held her close to me, “I don’t care how many little girls we give birth to; you will always be our baby girl. You just won’t be the only one anymore. Okay?” She smiled as she snuggled closer to me, “I like that idea.” I smiled, “Me too.” Then I asked her, “What do you think of being a big sister now that you’ve seen your new brother and sisters?” She giggled, “I am going to have so much fun. Especially with Eva! She’s like me!” I started yawning and Elliot sighed, “Are you ready to get some sleep, love?” I shrugged, “Yeah, I better sleep while I can. Doctor Harper left some formula on the counter with the bottles. There are plenty of diapers in the nursery next to our room. Would you please turn on the baby monitor before you come to bed?” Elliot smiled, “We have plenty of help, love.” I reminded him, “Doctor Harper told me to alternate between formula and breast milk. Next feeding, you all can feed them, but please wake me to feed them when they wake to eat after that.” Mom nodded,
I suddenly felt fear wash over me and I was almost paralyzed. What if I’m a horrible mom? I mean I would never do what Dahlia did to me, but what if I don’t develop that mother-child bond? I’m scared to death but then Elliot leans to comfort me and says in low voice into my ear, “You’re going to be fine, love. You are nothing but kind and nurturing. You’ve worked wonders with Calista. You have nothing to fear, baby. You also have tons of help at your fingertips.” I smiled as he kissed my forehead, “You always know exactly what I need to hear. I love you so much.” With that, I felt my stomach get tight and I lifted my torso to bear down, pushing to help our first baby through the birth canal. Doctor Harper encouraged, “That was a really good one, Elisa. Need another push.” Another contraction hit and I started pushing again. I was pushing and felt a sudden reduction in pressure. Doctor Harper smiled, “Here is your prince!” Our little boy started wailing as his father cut the cord, “He’
I sat in the living room with my feet up with dad, Elliot, Evan, Linden and Max. I was trying to relax, but my back started hurting. The ache started moving around to my belly and I could feel my belly squeezing tightly. It wasn’t so painful that it was alarming, it just really caught my attention. I raised my shirt to expose my belly as another contraction hit. As my belly contracted, I tapped Elliot to get his attention. As we both looked down at my belly, Elliot gasped as the babies were clearly visible as my belly squeezed around them. He asked, “That looks like it hurts so bad, and you are just sitting there looking at it. You are tougher than I am.” I laughed, “My back hurts worse than my belly.” Doctor Harper walked in, “Don’t get used to it. It won’t stay this way.” I looked up at her, smiling, “It will all be worth it. I can’t wait to meet them.” Doctor Harper smiled, “You are going to be such a great mother.” I asked, “Do you think a numbing spell would be a good idea?” She
