I didn't manage to eat much as I felt queasy but I put it down to the stress.I sat and laughed with everyone the best I could but I didn't know what else to say or do I just wanted to curl up in bed with Jax and Sleep.After the BBW we called it an early night and laid in bed watching the vampire diaries all night before sleep finally took us both.The next day Robyn had told Jaxon that we were going to have a girlie morning shopping and he gave me his black card so I could go shopping.

Jaxon's POV "NO FUCKING WAY" both Finn and dad say at the same time. Esme laughs out loud and my mom is smiling so brightly that I think Charlie and Hunter have become majority confused. "Charlie and Hunter can you go and see what Esme has gifted me for an early Christmas present" With curious faces on their faces they go to the box and Hunter Gasps so loudly I think his balls fell out. "YOUR PREGNANT!!" Finley says with a beaming smile on his face. He's quick to jump on Esme and give her to most biggest hug I have ever seen him do. They're both laughing and when they're done he lifts his head up to reveal the tears in his eyes. "Oh little brother don't cry!!" "5 minutes Es...." We all start laughing because they always say the older twin never lets the younger one forget about it and they're has been several times where she's reminded him of this which makes me laugh. My dad comes to give me a hug and to congratulate us on this big news! My brother and Hunter both pounce on E

This is the best piece of news I have ever heard" Finn says while walking with me and gulping down a full can of cola."I told Robyn first, I needed to know and I needed someone who can relate you know I hope your not mad"I've been extremely emotional recently and I can kind of guess why now. I'm happy and excited but I'm super scared."Why would I mind? Knowing my big mouth I'd have gone and jumped on Jaxon and told him myself" he says while laughing and eating."Dude we just had pizza and you're still eating...are you pregnant?"He starts laughing at me in my face"What are you laughing at?" I ask him."Your funny looking face Es" I'm a little confused why he said that. It wasn't even funny.I don't give him a second before I turn around and begin to wal

Millie's POVI didn't want to lay in bed all evening, but as time went by and my music playlist kept going, I lay in bed feeling defeated, like I usually did whenever I couldn't perfect something or when one of the mean girls would corner me and I couldn't handle it.My phone is on Do Not Disturb, and I'm sure my sister will be sending out a search party at this point and I don't blame her. I've avoided her calls and my mother's calls all evening because I feel like a total idiot for ever thinking someone like Kai would want to be with someone like me.My music is playing loudly so I don't have to listen to Natalia knocking on my door. Only, when I finally open my tear-streaked eyes, Kai is standing at my bedroom door with a worried and angry look on his face.When I got home earlier I made quick work of looking him up and sure enough, he is the CEO of a fair few restaurants and hotel chains and I understand he can't exactly claim to be an Alpha to a pack of wolves but I found myself

Kai's POVAt 3:40, when I was expecting Millie to turn up, I called her, but it went straight to voicemail. I don't worry too much about it because LA traffic can be a nightmare at this time in the afternoon, but I do drop her a message instead.Kai: Just let me know when you have arrived and I will come and meet you. I send the text, and it says delivered, but as the minutes tick by and my nerves begin to put me on edge, I send another message. Kai: Got some nice plans for the evening. When the meeting is done we can get the night started.Again, the text is sent as delivered so I know she is getting them but she doesn't read them. "Sir?""Yes?" I say looking up to find Cassidy standing in the doorway. She's one of those women who lives on daddy's money but doesn't like to do her job without being fired every damn minute of the day. Pushing her arms together to show me her cleavage which doesn't work because I would rather not look at her in that way so I keep my eyes trained on h

Millie's POVAt 3:30 on the dot I pulled into the carpark, Kai told me to pull into.Pulling my phone out of my pocket, I texted my sister to let her know I was fine and asked her to stop ringing me every five minutes.Walking into the building, I manage to get through the reception area and straight up to Kai's floor. I'm only wearing skinny jeans paired with calf-high winter boots and a long top with a cardigan, and I feel comfy and snug. This is what it feels like nearing November weather: not too cold but not too hot either, but in the late afternoon and evenings, it does get really cold here."Hello. May I help you?" the pretty woman behind the desk asks. I don't know what my facial expression is doing, I think I'm smiling but my body is as straight and tense as a metal pole pipe."Hi, I'm looking for Kai?""Appointment?" she clips at me. Her work attitude throws me back a little. He knew I was coming here so surely she should be alright with me heading straight through to wherev

Kai's POVFor the last few weeks, I have been travelling down to the UCLA campus to meet Millie after her lessons.She passed all of her exams at the end of last semester and the more I get to know her the better I feel.She was hesitant to get to know me at first before I showed up here and took her for breakfast after her morning practice.I also found out that she has a good trust fund but she doesn't use it, she prefers to work at the local diner on evenings and weekends and I respect a woman who doesn't want to rely on her family for money.My phone rings in my pocket as I'm walking towards Millie's practice."Rhodes," I say into the phone. I don't usually answer like this but when one of the office's phones for something then I do."Good morning Mr Rhodes it's Hallie" Hallie is my soon-to-be-fired secretary. Don't get me wrong I'm sure she does a brilliant job of her actual work but all I see is her trying to flirt and get in my pants at work."Yes?" I say as I come to a stop.

Millie's POVThe music echoes around the room. The thrill of skating to a good song makes everything feel much calmer to me. Everything I have exceeded is because I have given it my all, and I am proud of myself for getting this far."Mills, You're getting there with your axel but you need to push yourself further. Before you do it, duck and twist your body to get the right angle you need" Coach Steven's says as she notes down my movements. She's been my coach for the last 3 years since Avery retired and started travelling with her husband."Yes coach" no say feeling the back of my neck hairs stand on end. My body is going crazy and Zia is going absolutely nuts in my head.I carry on focusing on my movements and what I can do to keep with the same routine as the song nears an end."I want you to keep practising your camel spin okay, your footing is perfect for it but you're pushing yourself to the highest level and it's going to cause you some pain if you keep doing it, Millie""Yes,

Kai's POVWhen I landed in LAX, I went straight for the car I had left there the day before. I should have gone straight home, but I decided to phone my Mom and see what I should do."Hi Baby, how did the deal go yesterday?"My mom is everything to us all. She may have stepped down from her Luna duties, but everyone still goes to her when they need something. I planned to not mention any of this until I got home, but I'm questioning whether or not I should go and see Millie.A fitting name for a Luna. It has a ring to it. I think to myself. I don't want to get my hopes up but I certainly don't want to waste another moment not meeting her."It went to shit ma. The Alpha has no clue what to do but that's not why I'm calling. I'm back in LA. Just about to leave the Airport actually and I need your advice" I say as I'm actually still sitting in the car park not moving. I need to know what to do. I'm a bloody Alpha and I haven't a clue how to approach this situation."Go on?" She says in h

It was really busy since it was the exact time most of the gates were opening and closing so I didn't manage to catch her scent for long but right now as I drive up the gates driveway to Midnight pack I can smell her scent once again.Pulling my car up as close as I can I step up to the door and knock.Patiently waiting for someone to open it.A little older woman opens the door and pulls me inside."Alpha...?" She asks as she scans a list and politely smiles at me. Most people fear me or they avoid eye contact but she's looking directly at me."Sorry, I'm sorry my bad love, I'm Magda, I work here and I'm instructed to have the Alpha's sent to their quarters""Sorry, hello Magda, it's Alpha Rhodes""Mr Rhodes.

Kai's POVIt's usual business as always. I run a pack of 640 and a chain of hotels and restaurants all across the US so I haven't gotten much sleep. My sleeping schedule is lost on me these days and having the added stress is...shit. So far this last month has exhausted me and the last thing I want to be doing is branding a treaty with a pack that shows nothing to its name. Its value of commitment and leadership is meaningless if the Alpha prefers to play nasty instead of helping their own people achieve goals and respect boundaries. I've been in meetings all week and the last thing I want to do is to be at River Crafts Pack discussing more business with them."Mr Rhodes?""Yes? Sorry, I'm running low at the moment. What did you say?" I ask Alpha Kade."I was asking if you had thought more on the treaty.
