Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 138. Two Pros
CAST - As soon as Lila's car pulled away, I scooped up Declan. I could still see that worried look in her eyes as she left, and it made me wonder if she thought I wasn't up to handling the night shift. But I had this. More than that, I wanted this. Time with just me and my son, no interruptions, no one else to lean on. Just us.I carried him to the living room, where I'd set up a large playpen space filled with new toys. I'd gone a little overboard, but I couldn't help it. Declan deserved everything, every advantage I could give him. The latest interactive learning toys were spread out, each promising to help with development, motor skills, focus, and more.I wanted him to have it all. I wanted him to grow up strong and smart. More than anything, I wanted him to know he had a dad who would do whatever it took to make that happen.Declan's eyes widened as he saw the array of colors and lights. I placed him on the bright play mat, surrounded by toys, and watched as he reached for a

LINC - "I think we're having girls." She blinked, her head tilting as she tried to absorb the news. "Are they alphas?" I didn't answer immediately. Instead, I pressed my lips to her stomach. "I don't know," I murmured against her skin. "What are the spirits telling you?" She frowned. "Telling me? How could they tell me?" I straightened, watching her carefully. "My mom didn't hear them at first either. Not until she was pregnant with me. Then it was like they had been there all along, just waiting. She said it was like they couldn't contain themselves any longer. They were… eager. Hungry for someone to finally listen." She looked away. Her shoulders drew in slightly as she squeezed her eyes shut. "I… I don't know what I'm sensing. This is… this is…" she whispered as she started shaking. "This is crazy." A sudden gust of wind swept through, rustling the brittle leaves and winding around us. She shivered, and I couldn't help but giggle at her. "Don't use that word here," I warned

LINC - Lila was asleep, her breathing steady beside me. I slipped out of bed, careful not to wake her.I made my way into the backyard. I felt like I couldn't breathe. I needed space, and I needed someone who would give it to me. Cast. He would understand. In a messed up, fucked up way, he would get this. I crossed the yard. The dim glow from inside was just enough to guide me. When I walked in, the poolhouse was quiet. Cast was asleep, sprawled out in the rocking chair, and Declan was sleeping peacefully in his crib beside him. He looked worn, a blanket loose over his chest, his head tipped back. I lowered myself to the floor, leaning against the wall and just watched them.Declan's tiny fists were curled, his breathing soft, untouched by the complicated world around him. I envied him. Cast stirred as his eyes opened slowly. He didn't seem to see me for a second before he leaned forward."Didn't expect to see you here." He kept his voice low, careful not to wake Declan.I shrugg

LILA - I opened my eyes to find Linc and Cast sitting on the edge of the bed with Declan. Declan squirmed. Every movement told me he was ready to eat. And to see me again. That was the longest I'd been away from him since giving birth. I missed my little guy. So much more than I'd realized with all of this craziness happening… I reminded myself to not use that word anymore. The last thing I wanted to do was upset the spirits that shared blood with the two little alphas I was sharing my body with right now."Looks like someone's hungry," Cast murmured as he passed Declan over to me.I cradled Declan against me, settling him to nurse, but something felt off. After a few moments, he grew fussy, pushing away and making small, frustrated sounds as he gripped and scratched at my skin.My heart sank as I adjusted him, encouraging him to try again. He latched and kept trying, but he only grew fussier."Come on, big guy," I whispered, shifting him to the other side. I tried to keep my thou

LILA - After entering the pool house with Cast, I closed the door quietly, keeping my eyes on the floor as I tried to hold it together. Cast looked up from the couch. "Hey, thought you were getting some rest."Declan was asleep in the crib nearby, his tiny chest rising and falling peacefully. Seeing him like that, so untouched by the chaos around us, made my heart ache. I shut the nursery door, needing a buffer between his calm world and the storm I felt within.And then it all broke loose. Tears welled up as I turned back to Cast, trying to pull myself together, but it was useless. A sob escaped as I almost collapsed on the floor.He jumped up off the couch and was beside me in a second. He wrapped his arms tightly around me as I broke. "I'm so tired of this…all of it," I managed through the sobs, gripping his shirt. "I just want things to be…right. For once. Why does it have to be like this? It's like I don't even deserve to be happy. Nothing ever stays together. It all just falls
Last Updated : 2024-11-05Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 143. Where I Was Meant To Be
LINC - The night felt endless, each second dragging with remorse I couldn't shake. The pack house was empty and silent. Not even the Omegas were moving around. It was odd how still everything seemed, even in the middle of the night. The last thing I needed was still and silent. I didn't want to think about it. I didn't want to think about anything. About the gap that stretched wider every time I thought about the mistakes piling up. I wasn't this person. I wasn't this type of guy. I was smarter than this. Why didn't I just tell her as soon as I noticed the damn text on my phone? Then, she would have helped me through this. Would it have hurt her? Yes, but we would have leaned on one another through it. Instead, I panicked like a damn coward and didn't say a word. Not until it was too late... and to the wrong damn person. Fuck. I tried to keep myself occupied. I scrubbed the countertops, wiped down already clean surfaces, sifted through stacks of paperwork I'd ignored. A

LILA - I didn't want to go, but I couldn't avoid the test for my online class. I told myself it was just a day of independence, but the silence in the car was louder than I'd expected, settling around me like a reminder of everything I'd left back at home... Declan, Linc, Cast, the reality of this life I'd built. A life that sometimes felt too full, with responsibilities I'd never seen coming. Three kids under two. Plus, two guys who can act like children themselves sometimes. A wave of unearned nostalgia washed over me as I parked and walked onto campus. I hadn't spent much time here in person since my classes were mostly online, and now I regretted going that route. Coming here more would have done me some good. Getting away from all the crazy energy and situations at the pack house was like stepping into another world at this point. Students passed by in clusters, laughing, their lives so bright and carefree. They were my age, maybe a year or two younger, but it felt like we we

LINC - Cast and I had Declan for the day, his first without any nursing from Lila. She'd woken up completely dry, and I'd seen the sadness in her eyes as she handed him over. It hurt more than I'd expected, and I could sense how it made her feel clearly through the bond.It was a hard thing to be suddenly forced on them. To be suddenly taken away like it never mattered to begin with. Not just for her but for Declan, who started wailing the moment he realized his morning would be different.He wasn't handling it any better than his mama was. He'd been cranky since breakfast, his cries filling the house as he thrashed, wailing no matter what we tried. The switch to formula was supposed to be gradual, something easy to ease into. But here we were, diving in all at once, without the person who knew best how to calm him.We were a mess, the three of us, that was for sure. Declan let out a low, rumbling growl, something he'd recently started doing whenever he got frustrated. Cast grinned a

Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 95. This Was It
DECLAN - We took the long way back to the packhouse. It took far longer than the ten minutes I'd agreed to. Suki was going to give me hell for that. She’d probably time it down to the second and bring it up at dinner, then again at breakfast. I was already prepared to ignore the first three times before I gave in to whatever atonement she had planned. Honestly, I was looking forward to the punishment. Gaia and I fell into old habits. She challenged me to spot tree knots shaped like animals. I told her she was making them up when she did. She called me arbitrary and pronounced it correctly. I lobbed a pinecone at her head. She caught it, grinned, and tucked it into my hood when I wasn't looking. It was familiar. Just two people who used to know every inch of each other, finding the quiet rhythm again without forcing it. When the porch came into view, I slowed. "You and Dorian should stay," I paused. "The east wing at the Roman packhouse is yours if you want it. No strings. Just.

DECLAN - "I'm sorry." I looked over. She kept her eyes forward. Hands shoved into the front pocket of her hoodie. Shoulders stiff. We walked side by side. The trees closed in around us while the porch lights faded behind. Neither of us said anything for a long time. Our feet crunched through the undergrowth. The breeze rolled between us. I didn't try to close the space. Neither did she. But neither of us veered away either. The remains of the old house peeked through the trees. Blackened beams and collapsed stone still scattered across the clearing. A skeleton. A memory. "For how I rejected you. And for not telling you why." I didn't answer until we reached the house. "You didn't just reject me. You vanished." She flinched. "I know." "So why?" She took a deep breath and stopped walking. Her eyes stayed on what was left of the front steps. "I'd gotten the call. The implant was finally approved, and they found a werewolf doctor who could do it. It was scheduled. It was final
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 93. So That's A Yes
DECLAN - That was her fated mate.It was written in the way he tracked her every move, in how he hovered just close enough to guard but not crowd. His posture said protector. His eyes, sharp and constantly scanning, said no one would get within reach unless she wanted them to. He moved like he'd been made for that role. Like every instinct in his body had clicked into place the moment he met her.He moved like he already belonged next to her.Judson finally spoke. "This going to be a thing now? Fated mates falling out of the sky onto your porch?" Then he squinted. "Wait. No way. Dorian?"The other man stepped forward, arms crossed. "Judson."Judson huffed. "Damn, talk about the sky falling. Of course it's you."Gaia looked between them. "Wait. How do you know him?"Judson tilted his head toward Dorian but didn't look away. "Med school. He was top of the class. Never let anyone forget it. Ever."Dorian crossed his arms. "And you were always one sarcastic comment away from getting kic
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 92. Wait
DECLAN - "You're not gonna pout if I drink the last one, are you?"Judson didn't even glance over. "Only if you waste it."I reached for the bottle closest to him, smirking when he didn't try to stop me.Crickets chirped loudly in the trees. The house behind us had finally gone still. It was peaceful.A lazy row of empty beer bottles lined the railing like some halfhearted scoreboard. Judson leaned back again, one ankle hooked over the other, shoulders loose. That rare kind of settled that only happened when nothing needed to be said.We were both quiet. Not the kind of silence that needed filling, just the kind that held space. The kind that made it really easy to notice how much I liked having him here. Judson wasn't soft, but he didn't crowd either. There was something about the way he held space, like he understood exactly how not to mess it up. I hadn't realized how rare that was until I felt it.Until headlights swept across the tree line.Judson didn't move, but I straightened
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 91. My Second
DECLAN - I squinted. "So... you left your pack?"Judson shook his head. "Not really. My sister's mate stepped in. Human guy, believe it or not. Doctor. Weirdly chill. He helps now with the medical side, which freed me up to go to college and train properly. They all said it made sense. I guess... I just haven't thought much about what I was gonna do after."He paused, then shrugged. "Now I get it. I wasn't supposed to leave the South yet. I was supposed to be here. Meeting her. If I'd been back in North Carolina, this wouldn't have happened. Or it would've taken years."He looked out toward the trees. "So no. I didn't leave them. I just followed where I was needed next."I blinked. "You live on the Riverwalk."He grinned. "I know. Kind of perfect, right? It's loud on the weekends and peaceful at sunrise. Plus, amazing food within walking distance."I stared at him.He raised his bottle. "Look, I didn't plan to meet my mate while helping chart bloodwork samples in a borrowed lab, but
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 90. Not Even A Little
DECLAN -When we pulled into the driveway, Dad and Linc were already waiting.They didn't speak, but I felt something in the way they stood there. At the time, I'd figured they were just sizing up Judson, doing the protective dad routine. But now, after everything Judson had said, it clicked in a way that made my chest feel too tight.They already knew.Not just about Judson. About what he might be. About how important he was going to be. Just like they'd known about Mom. Just like they'd kept it all quiet. For me.I'd spent so long thinking I was figuring all of this out on my own. That the timing was random, or fate, or whatever the hell else. But maybe it wasn't. Maybe Cassy hadn't just guided me.Maybe my whole damn family had. Perhaps they'd been walking beside me the entire time, keeping quiet so I could come to it on my own.Judson wasn't the surprise.I was.They stood at the edge of the porch, arms crossed, matching unreadable expressions locked in place. The second we still,
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 89. She Was Right
I stepped forward and stifled the growl as best I could. "Hey. Get up. Now!"The guy startled awake. "What?"Tory shot up in the bed, wide-eyed. "Declan, no! No, wait! This is... this is Judson."She looked panicked. But not afraid. Not at all."He's... he's my..."I stopped. Everything shifted. I looked at her. Looked at him. Looked back."You're mate."She nodded.I took a breath. Held it. Then stepped forward and stuck out my hand. Judson stood, still looking like he expected me to deck him. He shook my hand. I shook his harder.Tory glanced between us, then spoke up. "He's a nurse practitioner here. Was walking past the ICU when I first came in. Caught my scent in the hallway and almost dropped his coffee."Judson rubbed his hand where I'd gripped it "I tried to play it cool. Avoided eye contact, walked the long way around, you know, the usual 'don't poke the angry fathers and big brother' protocol. I thought I was being slick about it too. Barely even looked at her. Just nodded a
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 88. I Saw Red
We didn’t leave the woods.Not that day. Not that night. I didn’t want to, and neither did she.We ran until our legs trembled. We played, circling and snapping at each other’s heels, tackling and wrestling in the mossy patches of clearing. We swam again, slower this time, more tangled up in each other than anything else. We lay in the grass and the sun, curled together, drowsy and content.And then we shifted.Over and over.Human, wolf, back again. Each shift smoother than the last. No moon. No pain. Not really. Not like the pain I had braced for my entire life. Just choice. Pure choice and ability. The power that came with it was almost addictive. I always wondered what they meant when saying the power overtook the pain. It was raw. It was strong. I loved it.And I loved her.We didn’t talk much, not out loud. But we didn’t need to. We were in each other's heads and had no plans to leave. When we shifted back to skin, we couldn’t stop touching. Couldn’t stop reaching. It was like
Pregnant Luna - Lawful Rebellion 2- 87. Permanent
It hit all at once.One second I was halfway to my knees, still trying to breathe through the pull of her shift. The next, my ribs cracked outward and my body folded. I didn't fall. I collapsed.The pain was nothing like the moon-forced change I'd endured before. This wasn't guided or timed. This was raw. A hundred fractures all at once, my limbs pulling and twisting, muscles screaming as they rearranged.I couldn't stop the sound that tore out of my throat."Cassy!"I didn't even know what I was asking. Just that I was begging. My mind reached for her. I was desperate and frantic.Her voice came, faint and steady."You're never selfish, so you would've never asked."Bones popped in my jaw. My fingers stretched, then broke, shifting in crooked bursts. I slammed my hand into the dirt and gritted my teeth against the next snap. My skin burned. My eyes blurred.Oh shit.Did she make me...Cassy... Did you do this?Another bone cracked somewhere deep in my back, cutting the thought in hal
