Chapter 25
Kyra-
The temptation to kiss him was placing my mind, body, and heart at war again. I knew I shouldn’t be wanting to kiss him, yet I found myself taking another step forward. The moment I did, Caleb’s eyes darkened, and I could see the way his body stiffened.
His gaze lowered to my mouth, which only made my desire to kiss him increase. Slowly, I took one more step forward. It felt like my body was moving on its own. Kissing Caleb was pleasurable, probably more so than it should be.
I was just about to take another step forward when I felt the presence of my kids. That was possibly the only thing that stopped me from taking that final step before reaching him. If I would have taken another step, I probably would have kissed him.
“Mom?” I heard Kalen yell through the hallway.
As if I had been doing something wrong, I jumped back and quickly left the room. Kalen was peaking his head into the room Hunter and I shared, which was

Caleb-For the first time in what felt like a long time, I waited eagerly for the twins to answer. I did think that Kyra needed to spend some quality time with her kids though. Watching them just moments before, I felt that they needed each other more than Kyra needed me.As much as I hated it, I was an outsider to her new family. Okay, it wasn’t exactly new, but it was still new to me. The last thing I wanted to do was try to force my way into their lives as if I belonged.“We would like that actually.” Ryleigh spoke.“Good, then it is settled. You will join us for movie night.” Kyra said, smiling up at me.I wasn’t sure what I was more excited about. Kyra smiling again or being able to do a movie night with them. Over the years, I have spent many nights wishing I could return to the simpler times. When our biggest issue was trying to decide on a movie to watch.“Thank you.” I told the twins.

Kyra-“Stop!” I laughed as Hunter kept tickling me.“Not until you tell me what I want to hear.” Hunter said with a hint of sinister in his voice.“I already told you!” I yelled through my laughter as I squirmed around on the bed.“I want to hear it again.” Hunter said, moving his hands to my inner thighs to tickle me.“You are going to make me pee my pants!” I screamed, trying to pull my legs away from him.“Then say it!” Hunter exclaimed, moving his hands to my sides to continue tickling me.It wasn’t that I didn’t want to tell him, I was just enjoying the moment. Things have been stressful around here since he stepped down as Alpha. He kept himself busy for the most part, but now he had all this free time on his hands.Our children were fully grown, and we have even discussed possibly having another child. Not that I would mind, but so far, w

Kyra-When I woke up, I felt disoriented. I remembered that I had asked Caleb to hold me after I woke up in the middle of the night. Except when I woke up this morning, I was on the couch with a blanket over me. Caleb was nowhere in sight.Sitting up on the couch, I stretched my arms over my head. Oddly enough I felt like I got a good night’s rest. My stomach growled and I debated what I would eat for breakfast, although the moment I thought about food, I had to run to the nearest bathroom as nausea hit me.In the middle of throwing up my supper from last night, I sensed Caleb behind me. I felt him kneel beside me and then his hands pulled my hair back. I felt a slight shock when his fingers brushed up against the back of my neck.It was a familiar shock, but one I marked up to just static electricity. Caleb didn’t say anything, but the care he was showing me made the vomiting process feel just a bit easier. When I finished, I just sat up and

Kyra- “That is the thing. I don’t know.” Mel said, her brows furrowed together. “What do you mean you don’t know?” I asked, moving my legs to dangle off the bed when I sit up. “When I tried to see if I could see anything, my monitor started acting weird. Once I moved the wand away from where the baby is, it would return to normal. I couldn’t get the needle to pierce your skin even. If I had to guess I would suspect the baby is putting a shield around you. Which would make sense, considering that is an ability you have sort of.” Mel said, moving the monitor back to where she got it from. “I can’t shield myself like this.” I told her. “Now, but you can place up a barrier around you or others. It may not be the same thing, but it is similar. I can’t know for sure until I run some more tests. It is just an uneducated guess, being they don’t teach this stuff in med school. Considering who you are though, it is probably my best guess.” Mel said, sit

Kyra-“Did you want to talk to me about something Child?” My mother asked as soon as I closed the door to my art studio.“Dad wasn’t your first mate, was he?” I asked, not entirely sure how to proceed with my question.“No, he wasn’t. I have had many in the years prior to him.” She answered as she walked around the room.“What happened after you lost your first mate?” I asked, sitting down on my office chair.“I was devastated. It took me years to overcome my grief from losing my first mate. But you see, I am not like you when it comes to mates if this is where this is going.” My mother started running her finger along the shelving of where I kept some paintings, as she spoke.“These are wonderful you know. I don’t know if I tell you enough, how proud I am of you. You have a beautiful gift, and I am glad you are able to share it with others.” My mother

Hunter- “What makes you think you can get out of here?” One of the creatures that have been constantly bugging me since I arrived asked. For what felt like months, I have been trying to bend the bars so I can escape. They weren’t budging, but I was bound and determined to get out. I now knew time worked differently here, but it was hard to remember just how different it was. While it felt like months here, only a day has passed where Kyra was. If the fly creatures thought their torcher was bad, they had no idea just how bad it felt to be away from my mate for so long. I kept forgetting what the creatures were called, but when I asked them again, they just got pissed. I’ve come to just call them Shit for Brains One and Two. It kind of seemed fitting. Their intelligence level was extremely low. Not to mention they didn’t follow orders properly. When they had first tortured me, they had been told to not mess with me. That didn’t stop them though,

Caleb-For two days, I have been feeling off. Even with Kyra around, something just didn’t feel right. Nothing I have tried has seemed to help either. It wasn’t that I was losing my cool around anyone, quite the opposite actually. It was like I was too calm.Even things that would generally set me off, don’t even faze me. I wasn’t in a good mood either, I just felt like something wasn’t right in my head. Last night I had slept on my bed while holding Kyra. I had been happy about that. When I woke up this morning, something changed.While Kyra seemed to be in better spirits since her mother left the other day, other than I could tell she had a lot on her mind. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get her to talk to me about it though. All she would say is that she was processing it.There for a bit, I thought that maybe it was because she wasn’t talking to me that was dragging me down. Except it didn’t both

Kyra-When I came into Caleb’s office, I hadn’t planned on doing this. While I was sitting here though, I couldn’t get the thought out of my mind. I was still unsure of what it was I was feeling. What better way to explore it than to see what happens when I do kiss him.“I am sure.” I told him.Okay, so I wasn’t completely sure if I was being honest. The thought of kissing someone so soon after losing my mate did bother me a bit. Not nearly as much as it did, but enough that it did make me feel like I was cheating on Hunter.When my mother left, I had thought long and hard about what we talked about. At the time I hadn’t thought it helped, but the more I thought about it the more I realize it was exactly what I needed. After she left, I had a lot to think about.The letter she left with me was still unopened, but her words did strike a chord in my heart. It wasn’t that I was so closed off to the idea
