Raven's POV

Sitting upstairs in our suite, I just finished feeding Hael is dinner then giving him a bath. Now I am in his room with him sitting on my lap as I read him his bedtime story:

One day the bear came to a clearing where a man was ploughing.

"Good day," the bear said. "What are you doing?"

"I'm ploughing," the man answered. "After I finish ploughing I'm going to harrow and then plant the field, half in wheat and half in turnips."

"Yum! Yum!" the bear thought to himself. "Good food that – wheat and turnips!" Aloud he said: "I know how to plough and harrow. What do you say to my helping you?"

"If you help me," the man said, "I'll share the harvest with you."

So the bear set to work and between them they soon had the field ploughed, harrowed, and planted.

When autumn came they went to get their crops. At the turnip field the man said: "Now what do you want as your share – the part that grows above the ground or the part that grows below?"

    I sat there thinking back to my time with LukeRaven's POV Continued We have been searching for the last few weeks continuously with Alpha Timothy Ryder to find anything and everything we can on Luke. It has been crazy around here and I'm just getting bigger and bigger as I wobble around carrying this big girl with me while Hael always runs ahead of me.Thankfully I have had Elena, Kenzie, Ayla, and Sylvia when she has time away from the school, all to help me out with him while Axel has been busy working on new structures for the packs to keep us safer.Ayla has been training under Malcolm, she gushes on and on about him every single night as we have dinner together, unless he is there of course, then I hear all about it when we are upstairs before bed.It has become a nightly routine that after I get Hael off to bed we make time to talk about her day before going off to bed. She also started school here this past week so she has had even more to talk about, especially considering s

    Taking it, I open it to see him, LukeAxel's POV Raven is home again, in the room on bed rest for the next week before she needs another check up. Luckily I have Elena up there with her during the day while the kids are at school and training.When I got in last night I could hear Raven reading Hael a bedtime story, when I peeked into the room I saw how as she was telling him a story, he was just fully enamored as he watched her intently. That's when I noticed she didn't have a book, she was telling him a story as she looked off, like she was watching the story unravel in her mind as she spoke out loud."Once the bear was caught in a net. He thrashed about this way and that until he was exhausted. Then he fell asleep. While he slept a host of little mice began playing all over his great body. Their tiny feet tickled him and he woke with a start. The mice scampered off, all but one that the bear caught under his paw."Tweek! Tweek!" the frightened little mouse cried. "Let me go! Let m

    I pulled her onto my lap, then settled her down betweenAxel's POV Continued "So you are saying that Luke could still be there? With the other guy that Ayla saw, around humans?Do you think they will hurt them?! I can't..can't... this can't be happening Axel, those people don't deserve to have to deal with them, not after keeping us hidden for so long and letting us make their home our home."I could feel her anxiety as she let everything sink in that I told her, but I can also feel her fighting to maintain her composure as she evens out her breathing.I forget sometimes, just how truly strong this woman is, how she can overcome more than anyone I've ever met. She has calmed herself down before I even managed to help with my touch. She closed her eyes, taking a few deep breaths before opening them to look up at me, concern written in her eyes yet a calm heart rate as she relaxes back onto the headrest of the bed."I assume you are going to contact the people there, let them know what

The waiting is killing me though, sitting here on this bed chair thing that's killing my back.I pray to the Moon Goddess that I can come off the best rest because I am honestly going stir crazy in the suite. I've had people in and out more this past week than ever before, so much interaction doesn't bother me really but it being done in my personal space seems to annoy me quite a bit.Today is the longest I have been out of there this entire past week. The moment I walked outside to head over here I breathed in so deeply I actually got a bit dizzy from all the fresh cool air that whipped around me.I didn't want to have a car take me here but I had no choice so even that didn't last long enough for me. Yet now, being in here all alone, the quiet surrounding me, only the small sounds of fe

Every cell in body went numb as I just sat there, the room spinning around me as I watched him disappear behind the trees, fading into the darkness that surrounded him because of the denseness of the woods casting off nothing but dark shadows.I wanted to scream out, to run to Axel, to hide Ayla away from seeing his face ever again. So many things running through my mind yet I couldn't even open my mind link to tell Axel what I had just seen.Was it my imagination?I heard a muffled voice calling out to me but my eyes were still locked on the screen in front of me, questioning my sanity as I waited impatiently for him to come back out where I could see him once again, yet nothing.I don't even really know how long I sat there staring at the screen but then I felt a small hand grip onto me snapping me fro

    Any movements on your end?Axel's POV When I had to leave Raven I felt a pang in my heart as I watched her scurry off to where Ayla was standing with our son. Unable to go to him, to stay with her, as I sent them off to be safe in the best way I knew how.Rushing out with Jason and David, we all took off, shifting mid air as we ran through the pack lands to the borders, each of us taking a separate one as Isaac already headed to the East. Retired or not now, he is still someone I count on heavily to help protect this pack.I hadn't shifted, in what felt like ages, Lucian claiming control as he took off running while keeping our pack link open for anyone to get a hold of us if needed.The wind whipping through our fur, the coolness of the air passing through to our body as we ran hard in this form. His legs extended with every step he took, the sense of freedom surrounding us as we came to a stop by the guards tower to the South where the main rogues had been spotted.Lucian pushed to

Being as dark as we are, without light you can't see Lucian when shifted at all, especially with our onyx colored eyes.Walking out the cold breeze hit my face making me take a deep breath before Lucian pushed forward as I removed my basketball shorts, he shifted slowly as his bones felt cold.Feeling each snap of our bones breaking before they realigned to form his enormous size. My face elongated as he howled deep inside our mind so he wouldn't alert anyone to our position.Padding our paws down, digging our claws into the cold earth around us we stretched out our body before shaking our fur out. The breeze whipped by us as it ruffled through the thick long midnight black fur in a soothing nature.I felt our neck stretch up as he inhaled all the scents that were surrounding us when one caught his attention drawing hi

They mainly go after vampires or witches that take qualms in hurting humans without a second thought. We on the other hand,

He has a lot of groveling to do with her, as well as the fact that she may not be so receptive to him at all. I know he has been desperate to have at least a chance to try to apologize.

Ayla's birthday was at midnight, turning sixteen so she will be shifting because of being an Alpha Female so we had everything set up for Raven to stay with her, walking her through her very first shift.Normally I would do this, but because of their relationship, how it has blossomed to the extent it has, she asked if it could be Raven with her, along with Elena and MacKenzie being there. She was nervous but excited at the same time the prospect of getting jer wolf excited her but I could tell she was scared that now she would scent her mate if he was here.Her worry stemmed from it possibly not being Malcolm, as well as the fear that her mate may have passed when her pack was killed. She has become such an important part of this pack so quickly, everyone loves her, she has had no pr

The burnings of rogues were completed, curfew was finally lifted in the pack.Ayla was back to school with Malcolm and MacKenzie, Maddie even started so Alicia has been up here helping Raven out along with Elena, basically the two were taking shifts so that Raven could get some rest when Aurelia did while they kept Hael occupied.Malcolm has started up his training classes again, Ayla is in every single one of them, she is really doing great and has decided that she would like to run classes for young girls when she comes of age. When I spoke with her last night I was quite surprised by her, but also ridiculously impressed with her at the same time."Axel, I know I will never be an Alpha, that I can't inheret this pack, and honestly I don't want to, I never did even with mine.

    Luke? Can you hear me?"Axel's POV The car held tension as we made our way over to the dungeons, the fact that I now not only had my Raven with me, but Ayla as well, had me all in my feelings as I tried to block them out from Raven.I know she needs this, more than getting the information, which in all honesty doesn't matter now because the other two are already dead, the main one as well, this is for her own peace of mind. Now I guess for Ayla's too.I just pray that she will be able to handle this situation, the smell down there is bad enough, but the looks of him, dying, it's not exactly a pretty picture, let alone one for a fifteen year old girl that watched the same man kill her father. When we pulled up, I had already warned Byron and Anthony that we were headed over there so they were standing guard along with another two of my men who will be staying top side as the others accompany us down to the cells, just in case I need help.If Ayla passes out, or has a panic attack I h

    I can't talk you out of this, right?Raven's POV Continued His breath hitched as I ran my tongue across the tip of him, tasting his precum that was sweet, his moan as my lips wrapped around the head made feel wet again. I gripped him in my hand before running my tongue down him, holding onto him as I traced my tongue down to his tight balls as sucking them into my mouth, his hand running through my hair before getting a good grip on me as he pulled tight to pull my head back, his eyes fully black as he looked down at me, his bottom lips pulled between his teeth as he growled at me.My hand continuously stroking the length of him before I ran my thumb across the tip, spreading his cum around the head of him, my head still cranked back as he tried to control the beast that was fighting for control."Don't worry my love, I can take you."His eyes snapped at me, a deep grumble went through him before he pushed my head back down, I licked across his sack before I cupped them with my othe

I was fully ready to go home though, desperate to spend more than an hour or so a day with my son.Ayla has brought him up every day, twice a day but it just isn't enough when I'm used to being with him every single day. Not doing his bath with him every night, or bedtime, story time, none of it, has been killing me.Luckily I get to go home today, I healed wonderfully, thank you Luana. Only thing I need to keep up with now is pumping, I'm producing way over what she is eating at the moment so I have to pump or I leak out everywhere.

    I'm still at a loss of what all went downAxel's POV Continued Everyone had come to visit us at the hospital once Raven was transferred into a more comfortable room on the second floor. Watching Hael when he came in was priceless. He climbed up onto the bed with the help of Ayla, right onto his Raven's lap while looking down as his baby sister, his eyes widened as he watched her little hand tighten around her mama's finger. "Baby... mine..""Your baby sister, this is Aurelia my sweet boy."They sat there for a little bit, until I could see how tired Raven was, so I picked Hael up before holding him as Ayla sat down on the bed next to Raven."She is perfect, she already looks so much like you it's crazy. Can I, ummm..""Of course you can hold her, scoot closer."I watched as Raven moved over a bit more as Ayla squeezed in next to her as Raven helped place Aurelia into Aylas arms. She cried as she looked down at her, introducing herself when Raven corrected her."Your sister, Ayla, n

I scented our daughter over Raven, but when I tried to feel out to her, Lucian started pacing as he told me that Luana seemed nervous.When I watched her face contort, showing me she was in actual lain, that's when I knew, this wasn't like before, this was different and as I placed my hand upon her stomach, I felt it tighten."We have to go, Luana says it's time, she sounded a bit worried."She was in labor, but she seemed scared, not the usual calm Raven that I have grown to be so accustomed to. Her body shifted as she winced from the pain when I suddenly lifted her into the air. I know words were spoken to the others as I carried her out of our suite, down the stairs, her arms around my neck as I got her to the car.Driving to the hospital I had trouble keeping my eyes on the road, my hand on her the entire time, not that I think she even noticed, but it was the

Walking around the corner I was hit with quite the sight.Hael in his high chair, the biggest smile spread across his little face, food strewn around everywhere as he laughed, Ayla ducking down behind the counter with what looked to be pancake batter in her hair as she had her hand covering her mouth to stiffle her laughter.Looking up I see Axel, he had flour, batter, and eggs covering him, his eyes locked onto mine as I stood there shocked, his hands in the air as he shrugged his shoulders before a smile broke out on his face when I see him grab up a bowl before leaning over the counter to where Ayla was trying to hide, he dumped the
