Nathan’s pov

Leaving Lexi was hurting me and I paused at the top of the stairs debating on whether or not I should go back. My Lycan was pestering me to place my mark but I continued to deny him.

It felt strange for me to care so much about how Lexi viewed me and I regretted the things I had done and said about her in the old pack.

“She was our mate and you did her bad,” Vukas growled sourly in my mind.

“I'm going to make it up to her but I must deal with my insane mother first,” I tell him regretfully.

Hearing the screen door slamming shut below I stepped down the stairs to see the front door wide open and someone with a flashlight outside.

Heading out onto the small porch I called out, “What are you doing?!”

Surprised to see my brother waving the flashlight at me to join him.

Jogging up to him he asked me how Lexi was.

“She's good but told me she believes that if I destroy the bitch my soul will regret it,” I muttered sourly.

“Yeah right, well she doesn't know how badly Kali abused

    Lexi’s pov“Mark me,” I blurted.Nathan’s furrowed brow softened as his eyes rose to meet mine.“Seriously, Lexi?”Nodding my head I swallowed nervously.“I'm already carrying our child and feel that I should have your mark on me as well,” I said boldly.Watching his lip curl and expecting him of all wolves I had known to readily agree I was shocked when he shook his head.“Before I do that I need to apologize for my past behavior…,” he started but I placed my two fingers on his mouth.“I have forgiven you and Nolan and don't want to live in the past. The present is a far better place to exist,” I told him firmly.Pinching his lips he shook his head.“I kind of enjoyed feeling and hearing your bones breaking…I'm not a kind person, Lexi and it will give me great pleasure to rip out my mother's throat,” he said in all seriousness.Gazing deeply into his eyes and narrowing mine, I witnessed wrinkles appearing in the outside corners of his.“What are you looking for?

    Lexi’s pov'sRemoving my clothes I noticed that my abdomen had become a bit swollen and I asked my wolf how long my gestation would be.“It's hard to say since I am unsure about lycans and how long they take but I would assume three months,” she answered.“I will have to do homeschooling,” I muttered, then added, “ I'd like to get my high school diploma.”The door opened and I covered my breasts and crotch to see Nolan eyeing me with an appreciative grin.“What are you doing?”“I'm coming with you guys. You're my mate, Lexi and I care about your well-being,” He asserted as he started to unbutton his shirt.I watched his fingers undo each button and felt heat pooling between my legs.“Nathan is going to be extremely angry that you are going to go look for him due to the pup you're carrying,” he said roughly.“He is my mate Nolan and I have to be sure he is alright. I would do the same thing for you,” I explained.I watched with narrowed eyes as he hesitated with the last button on his

    Nolan's pov'sWatching Lexi close her bedroom door I turned and entered my room and could hear Nathan venting to poor Stanley.I poured two shots of whiskey at our small bar and turned when my brother's bedroom door slammed shut.“I'm so fucking tired of him referring to me as his wife! I am trying to converse with him as a male friend and he tells me that I'm just an ignorant wife with no idea what he needs,” Stanley growled.Handing him a full shot I chuckled at the silly guy.“He is having a hard time just feeling. He has always cut that part off and Lexi turned it back on. The guy is in emotional turmoil,” I explained as I swallowed my shot.Watching him down his drink I grinned.“Are you going to go sleep in your mate's bed,” he asked me.Shaking my head I told him that Lexi just wanted to sleep.Nodding he sighed, “I can stay on the couch.”“Naw, you can stay in my bed and I will take the couch. I don't mind,” I said truthfully and he looked surprised.“How are you completely op

    Lexi's pov'sI woke up wedged between Nolan at my front and Stanley spooning me. Scooting myself downward past their feet I freed myself from them both.Grabbing some clothes I went to my bathroom and changed before sneaking out of my room and heading to the kitchen.As I passed the boy's room the door opened and Nathan stood there glaring at me. His freshly showered scent tantalized my senses causing my lip to curl on its own.I paused when he asked me where his brother was.“He is in my bed with Stanley,” I answered with my brow raised, waiting for him to challenge me.Growling low he brushed past me and stormed into my room.My heart raced in my chest yet I frowned when he didn't look back. I exhaled deeply in my disappointment. “Why is he so damn stubborn,” I muttered to Nova.She responded, “Because he's a Lycan and very different from a typical wolf. What are you expecting from him?”That's the same thing Stanley had told me last night when I opened up to him about what I was

    Lexi's pov'sAfter the laughter died down Nolan nudged my side.“After breakfast let's go to the pack school,” he suggested.Nodding I told him alright and heard my mom calling my name.“Dear, I have another cell phone for you since you have lost your old one,” she said softly and placed a new phone on the table near me.“It's your same number and I put in mine and Jonathan's number in the contacts already,” she said with a grin.Thanking her I tucked it into my back pocket but was blocked by Nolan grabbing my wrist.“Let me put in mine and Nathan's numbers,” he mumbled.“Mine too,” Stanley added.I smiled at them both and handed over my new phone.“Keep yourselves occupied today. Luna and I have interviews to conduct,” Johnathan announced as he stood and took my mom's hand.Lily quickly cleared the dishes and took them to the sink to wash.“I can help you clean up,” I offered and she shook her head.“Thanks, sweetie but you have to get to school with the boys,” she answered.Pinching

    Lexi's pov'sAs I showered I frowned over my thoughts.“Nathan is too injured for him to enjoy any sexy time,” I muttered to my wolf.“Perhaps you can show him tenderness and not just think about mating. You could be his caretaker, give him a tender hand to show him that you care about him, like he has done for you,” she offered and I rolled my eyes.“I need his mark, Nova!”“He won't give you his until you give him yours,” she growled back.Rinsing my hair I sighed.“I have to wait until I'm eighteen then,” I muttered sourly.“You wait for that age because of the certainty to be confident that the male is your real mate. We both know Nathan is your mate so I am perfectly capable of giving him a mate mark,” Nova informed me.Getting out of the shower and standing in front of the mirror I felt irate.“Why didn't you tell me this prior?”Feeling her pawing in my head she huffed and said, “I needed to be confident.”Staring at my reflection my eyes landed on the mark Nolan had put on the

Thankfully Lily said, “She is waiting for me to finish up with Nathan’s meal, Luna.”“Johnathan will be happy that you can help him. He wasn't cooperating with his dad,” my mom said softly and I nodded.Smiling at me but still looking concerned, she hugged me.“Please be careful, Johnathan has told me that Nathan can be unpredictable,” she muttered

    Lexi's pov We were at the dining table in Adalyn and Darius's new home finished with a superbly prepared dinner done by Darius's chef. Darius was currently out on his back porch sharing a blood bag with Olivia while my daughter sat with them. The three of them had become inseparable since my daughter's wedding to the bloodsucker. Olivia was even calling them Mom and Dad which tugged on my heartstrings and theirs as well. Kieran was running around after his brother Elliot who had matured quickly like him. They were wrestling with each other in the living room. Patting my full belly I smiled at my two mates and said, “ Our lives are better than I could have ever imagined.” “You don't have any regrets,” Nathan asked me. Pausing to think about it briefly I nodded. “Just a couple. Not finishing school and not getting the chance to rub all of this in the faces of the assholes in my old pack,’’ I sighed. Nathan's cell phone rang and he got up to take the call. “You

    Lexi’s pov Heading into Kieran's room I quietly rummaged through his dresser to find a pair of elastic waistband shorts and a t-shirt. As I went past his new toddler bed I could see my son sleeping peacefully and smiled. "He's such a good boy,” I murmured and saw his lip curl up in his sleep. Tucking the cover around him I pecked his cheek and headed silently back to my room. Entering the bathroom I see Olivia attempting to wash her hair and not having success with all the tangles. “I can comb out the knots and braid it for you if you like,” I offered and she peeked over at me and said, “Yes, please.” Getting on my knees next to the tub I told her that I would help her rinse her pretty hair. “It is like yours and my mommy's,” she commented with a frown and lowered her saddened eyes. “Were you at the fire in the caves?” Her eyes shot up to mine and froze. “How do you know?” “My father and my dear friend Lenny were staying there too,” I said softly. “That's my Po

    Lexi’s pov After checking that the upstairs mating sounds had stopped we made our way to our bedroom. Showering with both my mates I laughed at Nathan commenting on how Darius's prowess was weak compared to him and his brother. “There's two of you and only one of him so I would take your bragging down a notch,’’ I teased. Kissing each of them in the shower was thrilling for me and I savored each of them for their own uniqueness as I rubbed my bare flesh against theirs. “Well I think we should make some creaking of our own,” Nolan suggested and I grinned slightly, feeling a bit randy myself. “Let's move this party to the bed,” Nathan said while nipping my shoulder. Giggling coyly I nodded and held each of their hands as I backed up to the mattress. “Get you sweet ass in the middle and we will come up on each side of you and dry you with our tongues,’’ Nathan added as his glowing eyes traveled up my nude body I scrambled quickly to the middle and awaited them. Just as we were

My throat grew tight and my eyes damp on such a special occasion.We had traveled pretty close to the waning scent of our pack's urine marks when a new scent filled the air causing my hackles to rise.“It's humans that are trespassing on Jonathan's pack lands,” Nova whined.Nudging my daughter on her side, she turn

    Lexi’s pov Going back downstairs and heading to my mate's I could see Darius's eyes following Adalyn while I presented her to Nolan.“Hello father,” she said to Nolan who was glancing at me and Darius.“Hi daughter, come here and give me a hug,” he said firmly.Nathan came to my side and said, “Darius asked us for advice on courting a female, and Nolan ripped him a new ass hole telling him that he should have allowed her to grow up normally,” he snickered.Nodding my head I glanced at Darius and saw the worry in his eyes.“The poor guy has no idea how to win his mate's heart,” Nova whined in my head.“Mates don't mean automatic love,” I muttered back to her.“Nope they'll need to discover that love themselves,” she sighed.“I'm going to take Adalyn out after dinner for her first shift and run our wolves since I'm certain that she is also a moonless shifter, like her father and me,” I announced and all eyes fell on me.Darius Cartwright looked angered and was shaking his head at me.

    Lexi’s pov “Don't laugh at the scantily clad Lycan God, Lexi,’’ Darius snickered and I giggled at him.“What is up with the barbarian outfit?”Shrugging he said he didn't have a clue but only that it covered him the same way when he shifted into his human form.“Doesn't leave much for the imagination,” I mumbled, causing him to nod.“Sköll is a notorious lady's man,” he commented, being surprised I blurted, “I can't see how. It doesn't look as if he's packing much underneath his leather.”Putting his long finger to his lips he gestured with his eyes before standing up straight and greeting the God.“Introduce me to Luna,’’ I heard a demanding voice bellow.Turning I was face to face with a furry chest that smelled like a wet dog.“Luna Lexi, this smelly fella here is Sköll the Lycan's God,’’ Darius said teasingly, irritating the huge brown-furred Lycan.“Piss off Cartwright, I'm filling in for your smitten arse,” Sköll growled.Lifting my hand in greeting Sköll lifted it to his muzzl

    Lexi’s pov “What did you see?”Nathan looked back at me and said, “They were talking with my father and when he saw me he waved his hand at me indicating that I should go, which I did.”Huffing I growled sourly and looked down at my two pups.“I want to speak with them,’’ I asserted and my mate's both told me firmly No.“Why not? They're never going to stop bothering us! Let me explain to them that I have no interest in overthrowing anyone and wish to live in peace,’’ I whined.Watching them eye each other in the front seat I saw Nolan nod. Nathan turned to me and said, ‘’If they come to our house then you can speak with them but if they don't I don't want you to try and search them out, alright?!”“Fair enough,” I agreed as Nolan pulled onto our drive and continued up to our house.“We told Lily to prepare a room for the children and she said she would but for now there are two bassinets in our bedroom and two downstairs in the living room,’’ Nathan informed me.Thanking him I giggl

    Lexi’s pov “Where is he? Lexi, hello!?” Nathan asserted, waving his hand in my face.Frozen from what Nova told me I was blanking out from Nathan's question about our son.“Kieran is with Reese playing with Mila. He stayed the night there,” I said softly.Nodding, he smiled and said, “Oh that's right, I forgot I have been so busy lately. I just wanted to introduce him to his siblings.”Yawning, I glanced over at Nolan holding his son and Darius holding Adalyn.“I'm going to sleep,’’ I mumbled on deaf ears and laid back.“Three pups is enough wolf so I can accept the Goddess's decision,’’ I told Nova with a thought.“The Moon Council is sending another vampire to check on Darius's progress,” she whined and my eyes flew open and turned to see Mister Cartwright's jaw tense.He reluctantly laid Adalyn down and ran his hand down his face.Seeing me he said, “I will be in trouble for not complying with my assignment…and will be punished.”Furrowing my brow I glanced at Nolan and Nathan.“D

    Lexi’s pov two months later Sitting at the kitchen table I was watching Darius sucking on a blood bag and grimacing at him enjoying it.“How come you can be in the sun? I've forgotten the reason,” I questioned him.Peeking at me over the plastic bag he detached his fangs and wiped off his mouth.“I'm like you Miss, a descendent of royalty and royal vampires can endure the sun,” he answered then bit at the bag again.“How are you drinking that,” I asked curiously since he normally fed in private.Removing the bag yet again he sighed.“My fangs are like tiny straws and suck up the liquid. There are two miniscule shafts, one to consume and the other to convert,” he explained and I was intrigued.“Why do you turn to ash when you die?”Darius chuckled and shook his head as he eyed me.“Didn't you learn this in your pack school?”Shaking my head I told him that I didn't graduate due to the bloodsucker's attack.”Nodding he grinned.“We turn to ash so our corpses aren't taken and examined b
