Amelia's POV The air was cold, the tension was thick as a woolly blanket. My heart was beating a harsh pace that you could almost hear it thumping in the silent room. I waited for his next words, the words that could break me, make me regret jumping to conclusions and finally, make me fall for him once again. My eyes had met his teary-eyed ones, it was filled with regret and sorrow and I had a flashback of the scenario that had happened in Alpha Jerome's pack."I don't deserve you," he said in a breathy tone, making me heart unwillingly clench and my breath hitch as his stare had become too intense for this moment."I told myself that leaving you would help me restrain myself so I wouldn't hurt you anymore. I tried to convince myself that it was the right thing once I had left you. No, it wasn't punishment, no it wasn't because you're not worthy of bearing my pups and no it wasn't because I didn't have feelings for you. I-I just wasn't ready for you.You've been to good for me, I don
Grayson's POVIt was four in the morning when I woke with my mate sleeping soundly on top of me, her face buried in the crook of my neck and her lips planted where her mark would usually go. I felt content and proud to have her here in my arms as she slept. One hand placed on her right thigh and the other one on her back, she was warm and I liked the feel of her against my body. My wolf hummed in satisfaction at the look of our mate lying on top of us and I lightly smirked at the thought of her naked.I shook it off, I didn't want something going up at this time.My face moved to press my lips tenderly on her neck, placing light kisses up and down where her mark was and the curve of her neck. I felt her shiver involuntarily on top of me, but that didn't stop me from giving her kisses. She was very much adorable when she slept, I could feel her mouth twitch upwards as I continued my small assault on her body. She moved slightly, but my hands kept her in place until I stopped and her bo
Amelia's POV The morning was less eventful than a Bingo night in my pack, even though there was some excitement, nothing really ever happened and was really quiet, besides the occasional cheek kisses from Grayson of course. Breakfast consisted of the usual oatmeal and orange juice, with my hand wrapped around his, we spent it in the mess hall talking about what's like in therapy or back in his pack. He was very proud to know I was doing well in learning my duties as a Luna and I was very proud to know he was doing very well in his therapy sessions.He seemed to hold my hand as if it was made of glass and I relished in the feeling of his warmth around my cold dainty ones. It felt comforting and really nice to have someone cherish you like they are going to lose you, granted he was by my side every second of the morning, but I liked him next to me. His brother seemed really happy that we were sorting things out and he enjoyed the fact that we were getting to know each other, he practic
Amelia's POV I went back to Grayson's pack with a big smile on my face, my lips still tingling from his kiss and heart still beating rapidly from his touch. Luna _ had a smirk plastered on her face as she saw my expression after meeting with her son, she obviously felt smug from my face and nudged my on the shoulder with a questioning eyebrow."So, how was the meet-up?" she grinned as we drove into the forest. I blushed as I tried to fight the smile that oh so wanted to appear on my face, I tried to hold back all my emotions."Uh, it was interesting," I said as I tried to keep my cool, but after a few seconds, I failed myself and a big smile had etched its way onto my face and a very amused expression appeared on Luna _s face."Interesting huh? I can practically smell him on you!" she squeals in delight and it instantly made me wonder if she was actually younger than she looked, Luna _ was basically acting like a fangirling teenager. I felt the heat rise to my cheeks and looked away
Amelia's POV The sound of my beating heart rang in my ears as I dodged another attack, my right arm swinging to come into contact with a cheek and it made a very harsh 'whack' sound and I could feel my knuckles breaking under the pressure. Sweat dripped down my forehead as I swung my leg around which succeedingly knocked my opponent to the ground, losing their balance I swung my body on top of them and gave them two hard punches on the cheeks before the person had regained their strength and pushed me off them. I breathed in deeply as I saw my opponent smirk tauntingly and before I could do anything they punched me square on my jaw and I could feel blood seeping through the broken skin, I growled at them.I swung my right arm again which hit them on the nose making them take a step back as I hit them in the stomach causing them to groan loudly as they gripped their stomach. I took this chance to throw my punches quickly making sure to hit every pressure point until they shouted out '
Grayson's POV Having Amelia in my arms soothed me to the point my wolf was content, the past few weeks have been hectic, my wolf and my skin side are slowly coming into balance with each other and Irene and I have fixed up the patches that I had made to our relationship. Her mark on her shoulder had started to clear up well that only a little bit of redness still circled around my mark. It felt good to have her in my arms, her lips on mine and her mind completely opening up so I can tell what she's feeling, but of course, I could tell anyway.It felt weird to experience so much affection, but I liked it too much to let go of Irene. Her head was buried in the crook of my neck and my head was also doing the same thing as I peppered her neck with loving kisses making her shiver under my touch. Her scent was too strong for me that it made my legs weaken, the pull of the Moon to strong for either us to ignore. We both loved this moment too much to ever seem to let go, one of us had too. I
Amelia's POV I sat down at the right side of the head of the table, the future Luna must sit here, next to her mate at dinner. It was something that I had learned from my Luna studies and luckily this was one of the things that I could remember from the amount of information being crammed into my brain. I felt awkward sitting at the head of the table, each family member was staring at me with their judgmental eyes and views and I took a shaky breath as my nerves haywire everywhere. This was the first time I was having dinner with the whole entire Roman family and right now, it didn't seem like a family at all. I miss my family.I tried to avoid their piercing gazes, trying to concentrate on the hand which was clamped over mine, his thumb rubbing over the top of my hand as he tried to create a conversation with his family, but failing miserably as they gave short answers. I sighed as the maids finally brought plates of food on the table, roast chicken, mashed potatoes, ribs and other
Third Person's POV All eyes were on the infamous pair. Grayson's stance was stiff, his eyes zoning on every family member, trying to see if any of them would protest of what would happen, challenging to speak up to the Alpha. But, none had spoken, their tails tucked underneath them as their necks were being pointed towards him, showing submission and he breathed out in triumph. His eyes went over to Amelia who painfully clutched his left hand to the point he could not even feel it, orange pursued within her showing how tense she was, how uncomfortable she was and the faintest of blue which indicated her sadness. His heart jerked at the sight of her, his wolf pleading to comfort her, but he knew it would make matters worse if he was to do that in front of everyone. Everyone was too uncomfortable and the air was thick to do something so calming. "Dinner's dismissed, sorry," he told everyone and stood up quickly, tugging on Amelia's hand as an indication to follow him. She took the h
Third Person's POV They watched as their precious little twins laid in their respective cots in the baby room in the hospital, Amelia and Grayson held hands as they laid their sorrows together as they remembered their deceased little pup who they thought fit to cremate later during the week on the grounds of the pack, for hope that their pup will take care of the other expecting mothers. They didn't cry about the loss of their pup anymore, they knew that Archer would be watching over them with love and care even though they couldn't take care of him. The doctors had informed them that Armelle had kicked the little bubble that preserved them causing her to go to a premature birth, Aiden had died as he his heart was weak from not developing properly and River had simply come out healthy. It warmed their hearts knowing that at least two of them as well, it had taken Amelia four days to full recovery and all that was left of her pregnancy was a tiny bump, two small stretch marks and so
Third Person's POV Amelia had screamed her entire being out, tears spilling out of her eyes as she called out for Grayson. He didn't come. So she cried even more. She felt herself being prodded and touched, she could feel the numbness, but that was it, she didn't feel anything. Fear had swept up in her veins as she couldn't feel her pups, the thought alone made her scream. She was covered in blankets, eyes closed as the doctors did their magic. They were afraid something was wrong with the pups, so they chose to cut her open in order to retrieve the babies. Their blood dropped as they only heard tiny heartbeats, slow and weak. And they could only hear two. Grayson sat on the hospital chair, already hating to distinctive smell of chlorine and antibacterial wash. His family was trying to comfort him, but he didn't budge or say anything, he just cried. A once mighty Alpha from the start was torn in shreds in a hospital room, waiting for his future to arrive. He felt dead inside, but
Third Person's POV Amelia was six months pregnant, her stomach was full brown and was filled with kicking pups, each kick made her heart swell and every ultrasound they went to she fell more and more in love with her pups. No words could describe the amount of love she held for her babies, Grayson was growing more and fond of the idea of becoming a father and would always shower her with gifts. Last week, he had the baby room made as a surprise for Amelia and the triplets, the delight in her face as she looked around her, tears leaving her eyes and hands on her big stomach as she stared at their new baby nursery in awe. It was white with touches of colour, they didn't know the genders knowing they had triplets made it oh-so-easier. Beautiful handmade cribs were white and were big enough to house two babies. White rugs adored the underneath and little decor here and there pulled the room together. There was a breastfeeding station in the corner and multiple places to change the diap
Amelia's POV "You're happy with him?" Alpha Jerome asked me as he sat next to me on the couch near the window. Grayson was outside playing the little kids. My heart soared as I watched him laugh along with the children who try to wrestle him to the floor. My mind immediately thought that he'd make a terrific father, my future children will love him just as I do. "I am, very much," I sigh with happiness, a smile growing on my face as each child gave Grayson a massive hug. I heard Jerome give a hum of approval, I look over to him and noticed how his face was slightly sunken in, his arms and legs slightly skinnier and eyes washed with sadness. My smile turns into a frown and I watched him with a slight worry inside of me. "Are you okay, Jerome?" I asked him worriedly, spotting the signs of sick or tiredness. Jerome's eyes snapped towards mine and gave a small reassuring smile, but, it didn't reassure me one bit as I stared into his eyes, trying to find signs of any sickness. "My wol
Amelia's POV 3 Months Later Being around four months pregnant takes a whole toll on your body. I had been eating tremendously and had grown very curvy in a span of 3 months, my belly was probably the size of a basketball because of the triplets and Grayson has been continuously taking care of me. Surprisingly after two months worth of arguing he had asked Alpha Jerome if Grayson and I could visit his pack, I kissed the daylights out of Grayson for that. So tomorrow, we'd be visiting Jerome's pack and I'm super excited. "Ugh, I look like a whale!" I cried out trying to put a shirt on. It was meant to be in my size, but the shirt wouldn't go over my round belly. "You kids are making me fat!" I scold them playfully as I heard their little heartbeats echo in my ears. I felt frustrated as I stared at my very round belly, soon enough the kids will start kicking and then let the pain begin. "Baby you look beautiful," Grayson comments coming up behind me wearing a button up shirt and so
Amelia's POV It has been five days since we found out we were having triplets and the joy among my family and Grayson's was riveting and exciting. No one expected this to happen, it had to be a one in a million chance, twins were quite rare in the werewolf community, but triplets? That's a whole other story. Everyone was beaming with happiness, Luna Daisy was the most excited, she already bought gifts for the little ones and Gray was already trying to figure out the genders. I wanted at least a boy and two girls, Grayson, wanted two boys and one girl. After a whole lot of bickering and love making, it was safe to say we didn't really care about what gender our pups were going to be. But, we were already figuring out the names. For boys, it would be Arhger, River and Tyler, for the girls, it was Armelle, Allison and Dakota. The whole family was in love with the names, even going forward to getting personalized gifts. They said that if we didn't name our children like the ones on the
Grayson's POV My hand subconsciously rubbed against my mate's beautiful swelling belly, it had been two weeks since we arrived back home and already her stomach was growing quickly. She had made up with my mother a week beforehand and now Irene continues to do her Luna lessons and every day she becomes more and more used to the idea that she will become a Luna. My Luna. We had stayed in bed for the past hour after waking up from her morning sickness. Thump, Thump, thump The sound echoed into my ears, Amelia stirred underneath my touch, her eyes closed as she was about to sleep. I looked over to her, listening to the steady sound that had entered my ears, it sounded slightly foreign. but what confused me more was it sounded like there was more steady beats within that array of sounds, as if multiple sounds were playing at different speeds. It made my skin crawl with uncertainty, whatever that sound was, it made my wolf slightly on edge. 'What's that sound?' I asked and he shook hi
Amelia's POV After all the excitement had died down, Grayson's father, who insisted on calling him 'Father,' decided to want to have a chat with me, With a reassuring squeeze, Gray left me to have a one on one chat with his father. I could say my nerves were probably bouncing everywhere from this point as I realized my family had already gone inside and it was just me and him. I had completely forgotten his father's real name. I'd usually address him as Alpha, but now, I felt stupid. We sat down across from each other, my stomach squeezing up as he stared at me. His eyes showing an emotion I couldn't decipher as he twiddled with his fingers. I was surprised he was feeling nervous, he was an Alpha after all. I guess I started to do the same as I felt my fingers open and close in my hand. I heard him sigh before speaking. "My wife is a very traditional person, so was I, until I realized my son wasn't able to follow the rules. He met you and now, I can't help but feel this was meant
Amelia's POV The baby bump was beginning to become noticeable, it only looked like a little muffin top, but it meant more than just food in my belly. Every morning I had grown accustomed to the swelling bump around my stomach and the occasional morning sickness that had came with it. Grayson was amazing enough to wake up early in the morning to make sure I was okay, feed me and even bathe me because I felt too sick to do so. I wasn't sure why I felt so much morning sickness over a pup, but I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Today would be the day Gray and I announced my pregnancy. Grayson, being an Alpha could faintly smell that I was pregnant, and soon enough the rest of the pack and my family would know the gift that was growing inside me. We already planned how we were going to tell our family, we didn't know the gender, but we would want the family to know we were expecting. I wore a plain black maxi dress to hide the little bump along with a light blue shawl and white dun
