Julia POV I looked to Eric in surprise. He put his phone on speaker phone and nodded to me to speak. “Hello?” I replied. I heard a swift intake of breath from the other end of the line. “Julia?” I heard come out in a somewhat strangled voice. “Yes. Who is this?” I demanded. “I am your father, Julia,” the man responded. “How do I know this is even real?” I asked. I had no connection to this voice. No immediate sense of recognition. No feeling like I was talking to a parent. “I understand you have questions,” he started to say when I interrupted him. “Questions? I have more than questions. I have years of wondering where the hell you were. Years of wondering if you even knew I existed. My mother never mentioned my father, so how do I know this is not some sick game for you?” I asked, as my voice cracked. A small part of me wanted to believe there was someone out there who I was related to. But not like this. Not rel

Eric POV My body tensed and I stepped in front of Julia to protect her from whoever was in front of us. I watched the woman move forward towards Julia, but I held my hand out stopping her in her tracks. “Do not come any closer,” I cautioned her. I had no qualms about killing this threat. “Julia,” the woman said softly. I glanced at Julia to see tears streaming down her cheeks. What the hell. Who was this woman? “It is not possible,” Julia mumbled as Cami moved forward. “What kind of joke is this?” Cami demanded angrily. “Who is she?” I asked tersely, needing to know what we were dealing with. “My mother,” Julia responded in a strangled voice. I looked between the woman and Julia and could see the family resemblance. But how was it possible? She died? Didn’t she? “You are an imposter,” I said angrily, moving towards the woman. I would not have Julia hurt more than she already had been. “Do not come an

Julia POV “Why is that any different than what we already knew?” I asked, confused and angry at the situation we were in. I was in shock, I knew that. My mother was alive and standing in front of me. And all I could feel was bitterness and resentment. I should be rejoicing in her being alive, but I felt nothing but betrayal and hurt. “Guardian wolves are rare; a healing Guardian wolf is even more rare. We can heal other wolves as well as humans,” the man claiming to be my father stated. “That is a good thing. We could help many people,” I stated, unclear what the problem was. “Julia, sweetheart, you do not understand,” Eric started to say when I cut him off. “So, dumb it down for me, Eric. What is the problem?” I demanded angrily. Eric sighed, “If you heal too many people, you will die yourself. Once people realize you can heal wolves as well as humans, there are corrupt wolves who would sell you to the highest bidders;

Eric POV “Twins,” I heard over and over in my mind. I was elated to find out my mate was expecting our pups, but also terrified. We had so much on our plates. There was so much danger surrounding Julia. How would I be able to protect her and the twins? What did this even mean? Did this mean the Moon Goddess would bless the world with more Guardian wolves? “This is crap. We are leaving,” I heard Julia say as she turned to me seeking my support. “Eric?” she asked tentatively. I looked at her and wanted to tell her what she wanted to hear. I simply did not know if I could tell her that. “You do not believe them, do you?” Julia asked angrily. “I do not know what to believe,” I replied honestly. “If you are carrying our pups, we need to ensure your safety now more than ever,” I told her. “If she is expecting, I can protect her,” Cami said, stepping forward. “You cannot protect her like we can,” Lincoln growled at Cami.

Julia POV I was crushed. This should be the happiest time in my life, but it seemed it was the worst. How could so many things be falling apart like this? I started to walk past Eric, when he took hold of my arm and pulled me into his arms. I wanted to breakdown, but I knew I needed to be strong. “This is good news,” he murmured to me. “Then why does it feel like a death sentence?” I asked, my voice muffled by his chest. He leaned me back, “It is good news. You are having my pups,” he said as his lips gently captured mine. I pulled back slightly, “I am having babies,” I muttered as he chuckled. Getting used to the thought of having “pups” was going to take me a bit of time. “We have some serious things to discuss,” Eric suggested as I sighed. I knew we did, and I could anticipate what he was going to suggest. “I do not want to be without you,” I said to him, suddenly scared of the thoughts of being away from him. He loo

Eric POV I ran out of the building and towards the vehicles waiting for me. I knew Julia was safe with Jackson and Cami. I needed to get back to the Palace, make some adjustments as I did not know how long I would be away, and return to be with Julia. Twins. We were having twins. I could not believe it, but as I took a moment to breathe, I was excited. Thrilled at the thoughts of starting a family with Julia. I was worried about the future battle, but hoped she would have the pups before the battle came to us. We raced along the streets, until I felt a sigh of relief in seeing the palace. I immediately mind-linked Elizabeth, “I need to see you at my place immediately,” I said. Hearing the urgency through the link, Elizabeth agreed immediately, and I knew she would be waiting for me to arrive. I impatiently waited for the vehicle to stop before I jumped out and headed towards my house. The door swung open, and I saw both El

Eric POV What the hell just happened? “What do you mean you lost her?” I yelled into the phone. Elizabeth looked on with concern, wondering what to do to help. “Stay there. I am on my way,” I muttered as I hung up the phone and turned to walk out of the house. “Wait! What is happening?” Elizabeth demanded. “They lost Julia,” I said angrily, annoyed at being delayed from getting to my mate. “How?” Carter asked trying to help me focus. I took a breath, “They said she just disappeared in front of them. And now there is a wall in their way, and they cannot see or hear her,” I said desperately. If Lincoln or Laura did anything to Julia, I would hunt them down until the day I died and then I would destroy both of them. I could only pray to the Moon Goddess that both Lincoln and Laura would do everything in their power to protect Julia until I can get to her. “What about the tracker?” Carter said to me. “What

Julia POV “Blessed or cursed?” I heard from behind me. I whipped my head around and leapt into the person’s arms. “How did you find me?” I asked as I kissed Eric’s lips. “Remember when you lost your phone?” he asked as he returned my kisses. He was feeling my body for any injuries, assuring himself I was fine. I nodded, “I put a tracker in your phone. I wanted to do everything I could to ensure I would not lose you,” he shared with me. Tears filled my eyes, “I am grateful you did,” I replied as he hugged me tightly to him. He gently placed me on my feet, holding me under his shoulder. “What the fuck were you thinking?” he demanded of Lincoln, as he nudged me behind him. I knew Eric was tightly strung and ready to fight. “I was thinking of how best to protect my daughter,” Lincoln replied calmly. “You do not get to do that!” I yelled, before continuing, “You have never been my father and because you showed up, does not eras

Eric POV “Julia!” I yelled, as I raced to her side, catching her before she hit the ground. Her body was lifeless, but she had a heartbeat. I lifted her quickly and started to run with her, “Hold on baby, just hold on,” I kept saying to her, repeatedly. I needed her to fight to stay alive. I arrived at the hospital with the medical team waiting. I knew Jackson had called ahead; I was focused on getting to the hospital. I felt Cami and Jackson around me, but I could not focus on anything but my mate. I placed Julia’s body on the bed gently and followed the team racing towards the emergency room. “Prince Eric, it is best if you wait out here,” the head doctor said. “No fucking way,” I said as I moved around the doctor and entered the room. There was complete chaos. Orders were being yelled out; actions were being taken. I realized what looked like chaos to me was actually organized chaos. These professionals knew what they

Julia POV “Julia, I am sorry,” Laura started to say. I held up my hand, “What are you sorry for? Just say it,” I said, as Eric stood beside me. “Yes, do not delay on our account,” the middle woman stated. Laura growled at her, and I stood in shock. She growled. How was that possible? “What are you?” I asked her, as she looked back at me. “It is difficult to explain,” she said when I cut her off, “Well try,” I said angrily. “I am a hybrid wolf, but my wolf is dormant,” Laura stated. “You just growled, how is it dormant?” I demanded, feeling a sense of betrayal, I did not know was possible. “I was born with the gene of a wolf, but my wolf is too weak to shift, so we never have,” she shared. I simply stared at her trying to process her words. “So, you knew you were a wolf, and that Lincoln was a wolf, but you never thought to mention it to me?” I yelled. “Oh, this is getting good,” the tall witch said. “S

Julia POV “What?” I questioned as I slowly turned my face to look at the woman claiming to be Martha. “She is crazy,” the woman stated but Laura continued to hold onto my arm tightly. “She was the one who just told me to get Lincoln released,” Laura claimed. I removed Laura’s hand from my arm, moving to stand in front of her. Jackson had already moved in front of Cami and Beatrix, while Eric tried to move in front of me. I saw Cami put Beatrix in her bassinet, and then turn to move beside Jackson. He tensed in anger, but did not take his eyes off the woman standing in front of him. “I am Henrietta’s twin. Of course, I look like her,” Martha stated, sounding more bored than anything. “You never said you were twins,” I murmured as I noticed Cami’s fingers moving from the corner of my eye. I said nothing but continued to watch Martha. “It did not matter. I want her captured as much as you do,” she replied, looking at her nai

Julia POV We left Cami and Jackson shortly after Martha went to her room. There was much to be done, and I wanted to check on Laura. We entered our place, when I heard a scream come from Laura’s room. We raced in, just in time to see something disappear in front of Laura. “What was it?” I demanded as I went to her, trying to get her to focus on me. I could see the fear in her eyes. “It was her,” she whispered. “Who?” I asked, getting her attention on me. “That witch. She was here and she threatened me. She promised she would kill me, if I did not help her get Lincoln free,” Laura said in a whisper. I looked to Eric, who nodded and turned away from us. He quickly turned back, “He is secure,” he stated, confirming that Lincoln was still in the dungeons. I nodded, looking back to Laura, “He is not free,” I assured her. “She is going to keep coming to me, until I give her what she wants,” Laura said, fidgeting with her hand
Rejecting the Prince's Mate Chapter 100 - On Guard
Eric POV We shared everything Lincoln had shared with us, before we put the baby down to sleep in the bassinet and continued to strategize how we were going to counter the attack from Henrietta. “I need to call in some backup,” Cami murmured as she continued to watch the baby. “Do you think they can help counter Henrietta?” Julia asked. Cami looked to her, “This is the most powerful witch, next to Henrietta. If anyone can fight her, and win, it will be this witch,” Cami replied. Nodding to her, “Then call her,” I suggested. Cami stood and made the call. Within minutes of her standing, there was this loud sound that seemed like a freight train was landing in the living room. Jackson immediately swiped the baby up in his arms, as Cami stood back, as if she knew what was happening. I pulled Julia closer to me as we all simply waited. Suddenly there was this flash of smoke, and as the smoke cleared a tall woman,

Julia POV After leaving Lincoln and his haunting words, we went back to see Laura. I was surprised to see her sitting up in her bed, sipping on a glass of water. She had looked afraid, until she saw me and relief lit up her face. I moved closer, holding out a hand towards Laura. She put her hand in mine, and I felt a moment of peace. Like this was the mother I had remembered. She had tears in her eyes, “I know who I am,” she said, as if she had come out of a trance. I smiled, as tears shone in my eyes as well, “I am glad; I am really glad,” I responded before moving towards Laura and hugging her for the first time since she came back. Laura held on tightly, and we just held each other as tears streamed down our faces. “I am sorry I was not stronger,” she offered, but I stood up wiping her tears away, “You have nothing to be sorry for. Lincoln is evil, and he took advantage of you,” I assured her. “I should have known better
Rejecting the Prince's Mate Chapter 98 - Creepy
Eric POV I watched as Julia showed the warriors various techniques to counter her attacks. They were very cautious with her, which I appreciated. It did not stop me from worrying. I saw her rub her back a few times and asked if she needed a break, but she scowled over at me, rendering me silent.Carter was taking notes and developing plans for the warriors to fight one another in their training. I knew it was helping, I just hated that this was Julia’s destiny. I was incredibly proud, but I wanted her to be safe. Inside the palace with our pups. But I knew she would be on the front line, and I would be beside her when the fight did come. And it would come; it was just a matter of when. Julia provided her last words of training for the day and moved towards me. She was tired, I could easily see it in her face, but she would not give an inch. I wanted to carry her home, and put her in the shower, but she would pretty much destroy me if I even

Julia POV I watched Cami come forward, with the baby wrapped up in a soft blanket. Cami had her cuddled close to her chest. I wanted to move forward to hug her, but Jackson was there first. He wrapped his arms around Cami and the baby girl. He kissed her forehead, before looking at the baby. “She is beautiful,” he commented, as Cami nodded in agreement. “She is special. I can already feel her power,” Cami murmured. We all knew what that meant. Another child that would require our devoted attention to protect her. “Have you thought about a name?” Elizabeth asked. Cami looked to Jackson, “I had thought about Beatrix; it means she is blessed and brings happiness,” she replied, waiting for Jackson’s opinion. He paused for a moment before looking to the baby. “I think Beatrix is a perfect name for this little angel,” he replied as Cami moved closer into his arms. I felt tears fill my eyes at the beautiful nam

Cami POV “One more push, Louise. One more, and your baby will be born,” the doctor said, gently encouraging Louise through another contraction. Louise slumped back, “I can’t,” she said, as tears rolled down her face. I held tightly to her hand, “You can do this, Louise. You are strong,” I said, encouraging her. I could see the pain of the contraction starting once again, Louise sat up and pushed one final time. Within seconds, the doctor cheered, “Good job, mom. Your baby girl is born,” the doctor said, as I wiped the tears streaming down my face. I knew she was talking to Louise, but I could not help the instant love I felt for this baby girl. The doctor lifted the baby for us both to see. Louise held her hands out, wanting the baby in her arms. The doctor started to move forward when Louise slumped backwards. The doctor passed the baby girl to me, as she tried to revive Louise. “What is happening?” the doctor shouted, a
