Lycan Cross help Sophia and they both walked into the mansion where he was greeted with the presence of his family members including Naomi his younger sister who is supposed to be at his mate pack. Lycan Cross introduced Sophia to his family, who were already gathered there. "Everyone, this is Sophia," he said, his voice confident. "My mate and the mother of my child."Sophia smiled, feeling a sense of familiarity as she greeted Lycan Cross's family. She had already met them before, and they welcomed her with warm smiles.Lycan Cross's father, the former Lycan, nodded at her, his expression stern but not unfriendly.

I couldn't believe it had been a month since Alpha Pere and I started dating. It felt like just yesterday we were exchanging sweet glances and stolen moments. Now, we were inseparable, and I couldn't imagine my life without him.But amidst all the romance and bliss, I realized I had neglected my friendship with Uriel. We used to be inseparable, sharing every secret and laughter. But since I got back together with her brother, I hadn't made time for her.I felt a pang of guilt and decided to reach out to Uriel. I sent her a text, hoping she would forgive me for my absence."Hey, girl! I'm so sorry for abandoning you. Life got busy, but that's no excuse. Let's catch up soon?"I waited anxiously for her response, hoping she wouldn't be too mad at me.After a few minutes, my phone buzzed with an incoming text from Uriel."Hey, stranger! I've missed you so much! Yeah, let's catch up soon. But don't think you're off the hook that easily. I want all the deets about you and my bro"I breathed
I sat in the meeting with the chief and the other village elders, they spoke in hushed tones about the prophecy of the moon goddess. But my mind was elsewhere, still basking in the joy of being reunited with my mate, Illebaye. I couldn't help but smile, thinking about the way she laughed, the way her eyes sparkled in the sunlight.The chief noticed my smile and raised an eyebrow. "Alpha Pere, do you know something we don't?" he asked, his voice filled with curiosity.I simply shook my head, still smiling. "No, chief. I just... have a lot to be grateful for."The others looked at me quizzically, but I just leaned back in my chair, my heart full of love and contentment. I had Illebaye back by my side, and nothing else mattered. The prophecy, the meeting, the village's expectations - all of it faded into the background as I thought of her.I couldn't wait to return to her, to hold her in my arms and never let her go again. The moon goddess had brought us together once more, and I vowed
I walked towards the house, the door swung open and Illebaye stepped out, a warm smile on her face. "Hey, love," she said, her eyes sparkling in the fading light. "How was the meeting?"I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her close. "It was good," I said, breathing in the scent of her hair. "The wise one shared some amazing things about your role in our pack's future."Illebaye's eyes lit up with curiosity. "What did he say?"I smiled, leading her back into the house. "Let's go inside and I'll tell you all about it."As we walked in, the aroma of cooking food enveloped us, and my stomach growled in anticipation. Our son, Ethan Jnr, was sitting at the table, his face lighting up with excitement as we entered."Daddy!" he exclaimed, running to hug me.I laughed, scooping him up in my arms. "Hey, my little man," I said, kissing his forehead. "I missed you so much."Illebaye smiled, watching us with a warm gaze. "We missed you too," she said, her voice filled with love.As we sat down t
Uriel dialed Illebaye's number, her heart racing with anticipation. She had been waiting for this moment for weeks, and finally, she was going to see Illebaye again.The phone rang a few times before Illebaye answered, her voice sweet and melodious. "Hello?""Hey, it's me," Uriel said, trying to sound casual despite her excitement. "I'm on my way to see you. But I need you to wait for me at home, okay?"Illebaye's voice was hesitant. "Okay...what's going on?"Uriel sighed, feeling a pang of guilt for being secretive. "I'll explain everything when I see you. Just please, wait for me at home."There was a pause before Illebaye spoke up. "Okay, I'll be waiting."Uriel hung up the phone, feeling a sense of relief wash over her.Uriel stood in front of her closet, trying to decide what to wear. She wanted to make a good impression, but she also wanted to be comfortable. She finally settled on a pair of dark jeans and a white blouse, hoping it was the right choice.As she dressed, Uriel's m
Uriel smiled, feeling a sense of gratitude towards Illebaye. "Thank you so much for always getting my back. I really appreciate it. You know, in the past, I was the person who would always have your back, but right now, it seems like things have changed, and you are now stronger than me."Illebaye's expression turned warm and empathetic. "Uriel, we're in this together, always. I'm not stronger than you, we're just stronger together. We've been through ups and downs, and we've supported each other through thick and thin. That's what friends are for."Uriel nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. "I know, I just feel like I've been leaning on you so much lately. And I don't want to be a burden."Illebaye laughed, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "You're not a burden, Uriel. You're my friend, my sister. We're in this together, always. And besides, I'm happy to be there for you. You've been there for me so many times in the past."Uriel smiled, feeling a sense of gratitude towa
"How's Ethan Jnr doing?" Uriel asked, a warm smile on her face.Illebaye's expression turned proud. "He's doing great, thanks for asking. He's actually at school right now."Uriel's eyes lit up with interest. "That's wonderful! I'm sure he's growing up so fast. What grade is he in now?"Illebaye thought for a moment before responding. "He's in 7th grade now. Time really flies, doesn't it?"Uriel nodded in agreement. "It sure does. It feels like just yesterday he was a little boy running around, and now he's growing into a young man."Illebaye's smile grew wider. "I know, right? I'm so proud of him. He's such a smart and kind boy."Uriel's expression turned thoughtful. "I'm sure he is. And I'm sure he's going to do great things in life."Illebaye nodded, her eyes shining with pride. "I know he will. I just want to make sure he's safe and happy."Uriel's smile returned. "I'm sure he will be, Illebaye. We'll make sure of it.""You know one of the reasons why I forgave your brother and ac
"Mom!" a voice shouted from outside the mansion.Illebaye and Uriel exchanged a knowing glance."That must be Ethan Jnr," Uriel said with a smile. "He hasn't changed. He's still as energetic as ever."Illebaye chuckled. "He is indeed. And he's just like your brother, Alpha Père - always full of energy and life."Uriel's expression turned wry. "Well, I think he's more like Lycan Cross, to be honest. Always speaking his mind and standing up for what he believes in."Illebaye nodded in agreement. "Alright then. I'm sure he has something important to tell me, that's why he's screaming my name."Uriel nodded. "I know. Let's go see what he wants."Before they could say another word, they both turned and saw Ethan running towards his mother, his face flushed with excitement."Mom!" Ethan exclaimed, out of breath. "I need to tell you something!""What is it, sweetheart?" Illebaye asked, concern etched on her face."I overheard my classmates saying that the Lycan has chosen a new mate," Ethan
