Rose pov Rose was adjusting her pillows for the hundredth time that day, trying to find a comfortable position in the hospital bed Jeremy had set up in their bedroom, when she caught the scent of pine and alpha power. Her head snapped up in surprise as Gunner appeared in the doorway. "Gunner?" S
Jeremy pov The moonlight filtered through their bedroom window, casting a soft glow over Rose's sleeping form. Jeremy sat in the chair beside her hospital bed, his wolf entirely focused on the gentle rise and fall of her chest. She'd finally fallen into a peaceful sleep after a day of particularl
Rose pov The first contraction hit Rose like a thunderbolt, jerking her awake in the pre-dawn hours. Through their mate bond, Jeremy felt her pain instantly, already moving to her side before she could call out. "Jeremy," she gasped, clutching her swollen belly. "The baby—he's coming." She looke
Jeremy pov The first hint something was wrong came when Rose's hand went limp, releasing her gentle hold on baby Alexander. Jeremy noticed immediately, his wolf's senses heightening with alarm. "Rose?" He touched her cheek, noting how pale she'd become in just moments. "Love, open your eyes." Fe
Jeremy pov The soft knock at the door made Jeremy's head snap up, his wolf still on high alert after Rose's scare. He relaxed slightly when Gunner's familiar scent reached him. "Come in," he whispered, careful not to wake Rose, who had finally fallen into a peaceful sleep. He was still worried a
Gunner pov The first sign was a flutter in the mate bond – so slight Gunner almost missed it as he sat between Molly's bed and the twins' crib. But then it came again, stronger, like a spark catching flame. "Molly?" he whispered, hardly daring to hope. Luna and James, now three months old, stirr
Rose pov The pack gathering was in full swing, celebrating Molly's recovery and the three new cubs. Rose sat in a comfortable chair, baby Alexander sleeping peacefully in her arms, when she caught the scent of unfamiliar wolf approaching – female, unmated, and radiating deliberate attraction. This
Jeremy pov The first warning was a shift in the wind, bringing unfamiliar wolf scents – too many, too aggressive. My head snapped up from my dance with Rose just as Roman and Kaiden let out an alpha's warning howl. Loud howls that alerted everyone danger was near. "Rogues!" The cry went up as da
Liam pov It happened naturally, on a quiet evening in the pack house gardens. Grace was sitting with me on our favorite bench, watching the sunset paint the sky in gold. Her nightmares had grown less frequent, and her gift of true-seeing showed her nothing but genuine love and protection in my eve
Liam pov Grace's scream tore through the night, jerking me awake from where I had been sleeping in the chair beside her bed. Through our mate bond, I felt her terror as the nightmare gripped her. She was thrashing around and begging for them to stop. "Grace," I called softly, careful not to touc
Liam pov Once Grace was stable and sleeping under Beth and Sophia's care, my rage could no longer be contained. My wolf paced beneath my skin, demanding vengeance for our mate's injuries. "We hunt," Alex said simply, recognizing the look in my son's eyes. Through our pack bonds, we felt mom's wo
Liam pov I was patrolling the outer boundaries of Fireside and Paw pack territories when I caught the scent - vanilla and wildflowers, mixed with the metallic tang of blood. My wolf surged forward instantly, recognizing something vital even before his human mind understood. I found my mate and she
Liam pov I noticed it during afternoon training. Luna and Alexander were sparring, their movements perfectly synchronized, when something shifted in the pack bonds. My sister stumbled slightly, her silver-touched eyes widening as she met Alexander's golden gaze. The mate bond snapped into place wi
Liam pov My enhanced hearing caught the sound of soft crying coming from my mother's bathroom. I had just finished an intense training session where I had mastered a complex combat technique, making my father beam with pride. But now, his wolf stirred with concern at my mother's distress. "Mom?"
Beth pov I stood at the window of my study, watching my children train in the yard below. Liam, now fifteen, moved with the fluid grace of both wolf and warrior as he sparred with his sister. Luna, thirteen, matched him move for move, her silver-touched eyes flashing as she combined human strategy
Melissa pov My labor started during the full moon, as if the goddess herself had chosen the timing. Beth sat beside my bed, little Luna sleeping peacefully in her arms, while Caleb paced nervously and Sophia prepared my birthing supplies. "I don't know how you did this twice," Melissa gritted th
Beth pov The chaos had finally settled, leaving peaceful moonlight streaming through the windows of our house's master bedroom. I reclined against a mountain of pillows, my newborn daughter cradled in one arm while Liam snuggled against my other side. Alex stood watching his family, his heart so f
