Axel's POV

When I got back to the lookout, Timothy was pacing outside when he spotted me coming up in wolf form. When I got up to him he held out a pair of shorts and a shirt to me as I shifted back.

I pulled the shorts on before I started pulling the shirt over my head when he spoke. His tone held a hint of worry before I looked up at him to see his expression holding so much more.

"Axel, I'm glad your back, how is your Luna holding up?"

"She will be better when this is all done. But enough with the pleasantries, what's wrong Timothy?"

He ran his hand down his face while sighing deeply.

Thinking back to the way the rogues reacting to his scream of pain when I first sank my teeth through his soft, bitter tasting flesh, I began to see things I hadn't truly noticed as it was all happening.The way they all completely stopped what they were doing, mid fight, mid bite even, as their eyes snapped right to us before they left the positions they were in. They started rushing in our direction, ad if they were attempting to protect him from me, to keep him safe.How can they be connected to a hunter in such a

    You will NOT be going down into that placeRaven's POV This pregnancy has been insanely different for me. The way I wish to ravage my mate, continuously mark him when I'm turned on, as if he isn't already mine. It's as if my body wants to make the mark more pronounced for every moment he isn't by my side, so I know, others know, he's taken.I passed out rather quickly after we were together, exhausted and my body was highly sensitive so all his tiny touches or grazes on my naked skin had me wet again, but feeling his breathing even out, knowing he wasn't leaving me this time, my body melted into his as I fell asleep. I slept better than I had in such a long time, just having him close was all I ever needed. I could see that the sun was peering through the curtains but I groaned, rolling over burying my face into his chest when he chuckled at my actions.I felt his hand slide up my arm before he pulled back from me, brushing my hair from my face as it tickled my shoulder as it rolled

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.

    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 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'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.
