Lexi's p.o.v"Okay." I answered not wanting to argue with him.He looked at the roof then back at me with a wide smile."I can't believe we hit a jackpot." He whispered then lay down on the bed.I lay beside him, facing him. I wanted to observe him quietly because he looked very happy and he was no longer asking me questions."I think the moon goddess has finally realized how she did us wrong and now she's giving you to us as a mate." He said.I bit my lower lip sadly and thought back to Amelia's words. We were only going to stay here for a few days. Did he know that?. If not, then when was I supposed to tell him?."Lexi." He called snapping me out of my thoughts."I'm happy to have finally met you." He whispered.His voice was soft yet I could detect pain in it.I moved closer without a second thought and lay my head against his chest.He quickly shifted and wrapped his arms around me."This will be very hard for me, but I'll survive." He whispered then looked at me with a smile.I d
Evan's p.o.vI carefully tip-toed out of the room and walked out of the pack house happily."I can't get enough of how beautiful she is." I whispered silently to my wolf as he purred proudly.After she had asked me to wait for her to sleep, I reluctantly agreed because I wanted to spend more time with her. A lot of hours went by with me watching her resting, she looked like a freaking angel.When I noticed that it was nearly the break of dawn, I decided to go back to my tent."What the fuck." I muttered under my breath then slowed down my pace when I picked up Ryan's scent. It was obvious that he was waiting for me."Brother." I called in the form of a greeting when I reached where he was standing.He folded his arms then clicked his tongue, a habit he had whenever he was annoyed at me."Did you enjoy her?" He asked sarcastically."What?" I asked back in disbelief."Did you fuck that slut?" He asked, this time in a cold tone.I grabbed him by the collar and tightened my grip."I dare
Ryan p.o.v We all sat in the living room quietly. My eyes were on my mate and so was Evan's. She sat between Whitney and Uncle looking all comfortable. They were so over protective over her and that was pissing me off. "Whitney, you can't stand between mates, that you should understand because you too are mated." Alpha Ian said calmly then stood up and looked at Lexi. "And I believe she has a choice over all this, after all we are talking about her and her mates." He said. "Alpha, I do understand how it feels to find a mate and I do want Lexi to be happy. But understand that she's too innocent and naive. For a long time she stayed alone without anyone looking after her or telling her anything about the world. On the other hand we have these two assholes who have fucked around a lot, drunk as much as they wanted and disrespected a lot of females." She said as I sat upright with a low growl. "Yeah right. Growl as much as you want you don't intimidate me. I heard it all from your
Lexi's p.o.vI was upset over his disrespect and seeing him on his knees made me happy.An arm around my waist made me look up. Evan stood next to me with a sad expression on his face."That's enough, violence is never the answer." He whispered softly.I took in a deep breath, released it then moved my hand on top of Ryan's head.His screams stopped and his trembling body relaxed. His forehead was covered in sweat and his breathing was loud and labored.Evan turned and faced everyone."I'm so sorry for all this. I ask for your forgiveness and pardon. If I hadn't said all that, I couldn't have angered my brother. As much as I would love for us to talk about this till the end, I can't let my brother continue kneeling on the floor in that state. So if you will excuse me, I'll take him to his tent." He said then turned back to look at Ryan.He was about to lean in and grab his hand when I quickly grabbed his arm."Don't help him. He is a bad person." I whispered.He smiled then moved his
Amelia's p.o.vI was nervously standing in my bedroom waiting for Ian to come back with news from the pack clinic.After that conversation we all had about Lexi, I went to do a blood test at the pack clinic and a few days went by easily. Yesterday when the doctor asked me to come over with him to see the results I pretended to be tired. Ian being the understanding mate that he is let me be. I would have done the same today but Ian wasn't going to take it. He decided to go for the both of us and that came as a relief at the same time it scared me.I quickly turned and looked at the door when it opened and he walked with a sealed envelope in his hand.He had a calm expression on his face but also looked very tired while I was silently panicking."Keep calm." Aurora growled at me."What did she say?" I quickly asked, ignoring her."A few things about your health." He answered, then looked at the envelope with a cold expression."Also this is for you." He said seriously.I looked at it
Whitney's p.o.v"You have been too happy lately." I said to Lexi calmly who was eating next to me."Yesterday Ryan and Evan took me out for a drive." She answered and looked at me with a smile."It's usually like that with the three of you, don't you get tired of having someone drive you around?" I asked seriously."No." She answered and then continued to eat."They are still young, so they are enjoying most of the things they come across and experience." Leo whispered next to me.I was about to tell him how old he sounds with his statement when Ian and Amelia walked in."That looks delicious." Amelia said then sat down opposite us with Ian."Should I serve you two?" I asked in a respectful tone."No, I'm not here to eat." She answered.I glanced at Leo for a second then back at her."Is there a problem?" I asked in concern."No, not at all." She answered simply.I sighed in relief then relaxed in my seat."The pregnancy test I took a few days ago came back positive." She said softly.
Lexi's p.o.vI stood outside Ryan's tent debating whether to call out his name or not."Ryan, your mate is outside your tent." A man walking past me said on top of his voice."I know." Came his response.I brushed my hair backwards then hesitantly excused myself before walking in.Evan was lying on the bed facing the entrance while Ryan was half dressed buckling his belt."I'm sorry I didn't knock." I said then faced the side."I mean I'm sorry I didn't call out your name." I corrected my sentence and swallowed hard.He was shirtless and his body looked amazing. I felt very shy to look at him. I also didn't want to start thinking about how well built he was."You did excuse yourself." Evan answered."So what brings you here?" Ryan asked, then moved to where I was, standing in front.I looked him in the eyes then lowered my gaze to his hard chest."I..um..I..... Wanted to tell you something." I stammered."Brother, stop teasing her." Evan called out."Why shouldn't I when it's actuall
Ryan's p.o.vEvan stood looking at me furiously with his hands pressed on his hips."Are you insane?" He asked in a whisper.I clenched my hands in fists then took a few steps closer to stand in front of him."Do I look fucking insane to you?" I spat."You are way past insanity you stupid fuck?" He growled loudly and grabbed me by the collar."Are you saying this because of how I acted?" I asked loudly.He dropped his hand then brushed it through his hair while cursing under his breath."I was upset, okay!. I couldn't just stay still or keep calm. I didn't want to act up but I ....."I swallowed my words then weakly stumbled a bit."Ryan." He called in concern then quickly held my hand."I'm okay." I whispered softly."You know how our wolves are by now. They are different from everyone's. If you go against them, they will easily have a way to punish us." He said softly.I knew how our wolves were, but mostly how mine was. He made me weak to the point of passing out whenever he was ve
Kyle's POV It felt so unreal when my father called Larson and me into his office to tell us how we had to prepare ourselves because tomorrow the ceremony was going to take place.All we could do was look at each other and then at him in excitement. We were also nervous about everything."How are you feeling?" Larson asked me seriously.We were in the training field exercising."A little of everything. You know, scared, nervous, excited, and happy," I answered simply."What about you? How do you feel?" I asked."I feel so nervous and scared, but also excited because I have always looked forward to standing by your side when you take over as Alpha," he answered."I'm glad," I said honestly."Larson and Kyle, go to the border right now," my father's command came through the pack's mind link."Gosh, what now?" I whispered and then began to walk to the border with Larson right by my side."Maybe we are receiving other visitors," he said."Like who? Every member of our family is right in t
Ian's POV"Are you sure they aren't close by?" I asked Neo."I am positive, Ian. Tamara, Lexi, and Yuki went to give Tanya a tour of our pack. As for Blade, Larson and Kyle, they went to help Nana and Sharon with something," he answered."Okay," I whispered, then cleared my throat and looked at everyone seriously."I'm glad to have you all here today, and I'm also kind of proud of you, August, for choosing your mate instead of some women who took you out of your misery," I said, then laughed softly when he rolled his eyes."The main reason I asked most of you to come over wasn't only because of August, but because of my son and nephew," I said, and then moved forward."I have wanted to take a step away from everything and finally step back from being an active Alpha for a few years now. Unfortunately, Amelia was against it because she knew Kyle wasn't ready. That's why we sent him to the training camp," I said seriously."But now Amelia and I truly believe he is ready. We have also se
August's POV "Are you okay?" Tanya asked seriously.I wasn't okay in any way, but I wasn't going to tell her that.I was already nervous while driving, but now that we were here, I felt like I had made a wrong decision.I could see the twins laughing and mocking Tanya, and us fighting because of that. I could also see Felix making a lame comment about how I went for the daughter after the mother failed to make me stay."I am fine," I answered and then frowned when I looked at the entrance.Something was definitely wrong.Not only did we cross Ian's pack, but we were parked close to the pack house, yet no one was there to welcome us. Not even the warriors, when it was so obvious that Ian knew I had crossed his border."Shall we go and knock?" she asked."Yes," I answered and then got out and went to open the door for her."Thank you," she said softly when she stepped out."Don't mention it," I answered and then shut the door."Do I look okay?" she asked in a low tone.I looked at her
Felix's POV"Remind me again, why didn't we use the portal?" I asked Chase, who was driving the car."I told you already, Sammy. Lee and Jeannie will be running a little late," he answered and then gave me a warm smile."They just had to go and visit them; how annoying," I muttered."Family is never annoying," he said in a low tone, then focused on the road.He was right; family was everything, but I was still annoyed that Lee chose to go and visit his family with Jeannie right after Ian had told us about his plans for Kyle and Larson's succession.“Screw him,” I whispered softly."Hey, sweetheart, we have reached," he informed me simply.I looked at the pack house that was visible from afar after we had crossed the border, then sighed.I was really looking forward to seeing my baby girl more than anyone. Besides that, I missed Ian and Amelia a lot, but I wasn't going to openly admit it until they said it first."Remember what we talked about? No more showing disgust towards Larson. W
Kyle's POV "You sound grumpy," Lui said to me on the phone."Maybe it's because your sister hasn't picked up any of my calls. I miss her a lot, and I think you understand how I feel. Or maybe it's because Larson can't stop rubbing it in my face how happy he is," I answered seriously.Yesterday, when he went back with Tamara, I did want them to have a good time together.But when they came back laughing and walking hand in hand, I envied them. I wished Yuki could be here with me. I felt so lonely, and so did Lionel."I told you how she was busy helping Mom out with something. When she is free, I will tell her to call you," he answered."Well, we can't all feel the same way, can we?" I muttered."Dude, she does love you a lot; she is just very busy. Also, is that how a soon-to-be Alpha acts and reacts? Have more dignity and faith in everything and everyone," he said loudly."Says the guy who can't take his mate to that magical place we were," I answered in a mocking tone."How did you
Larson's POV "Do you like the smell?" Tamara asked with a smile.I inhaled deeply and then nodded."I like it," I answered simply.We were in a store looking at perfumes and trying to see which one suited me the most. Although she looked serious whenever she didn't like a scent, she seemed to have a lot of fun.My plan was to go out to eat, but when she saw the store, she asked me to pull over, and I couldn't say no."Although I love this a lot, let me check out that purple one at the far end of the shelf," she said and then went to grab it.I turned and looked at the jewelry display that was close to the entrance. Since we walked in, my eyes had been set on a beautiful blue diamond necklace and how amazing it would look if she wore it."She would love it," my wolf said, making me chuckle."I don't think so. Since we walked in, she didn't even spare a glance at the jewelry," I answered."Maybe she is being considerate of us," he said seriously."Please, we’ve been getting a monthly
Dusk's POV "Maybe a little rest will do," my father said with concern."I don't need rest right now, Father. I want to be stronger and better," I answered seriously."You will with time, but all I am asking you to do right now is rest," he said.I looked at him coldly and then nodded."Fine, I will rest," I answered and then went to sit on a beach that was under a huge tree.The training field was wide and a large area that most warriors used. But there was a certain side that was considered a resting place. Only a few warriors came there to rest, and we figured it would be a good place to use for my training.I hated being watched, and my father knew that. That's why I was relieved when he chose this place."You stay here; I'll be right back. Oh, and I'll ask your sister to bring you some cold water," he said and then walked away.Micah was my cousin, but because my father took her as a daughter, she became my sister.I paid no mind to that because I loved having her as a sister. I
Tamara's POV"Making a speech like that is a little too much," I said seriously in Larson's room.When he called my phone and asked me to come over, I didn't know what to expect, so I put on my best outfit and applied light makeup to my face.As soon as I reached his door, he opened it, grabbed my hand, pulled me in, and shut the door behind us.He was so excited that he couldn't wait for me to sit down when he told me how he and Kyle were soon going to be the acting Beta and Alpha.I was sincerely happy and proud; that's why I hugged him tightly and told him exactly how I was feeling.When I pulled back and sat down, he began sharing a few speeches that he would say on the actual day and asking for my opinion.I told him the truth, and he went on to make a few adjustments to those I liked."Maybe I shouldn't do any of them, seeing how I have never heard anyone ever doing it before," he said in a dejected tone."What? No, you should. Just because no one has ever done it, it doesn't me
August's POV "Am I not doing anything wrong, am I?" I asked Ried as I looked at the tray of breakfast that I had prepared."You are actually being awfully considerate," he answered, making me smile."That's the least I can do for being a jerk to our mate," I replied, then grabbed the tray and nervously walked to the bedroom with it.I wanted what happened between us to happen so badly; that's why I was happy when Ried took the initiative.Now that we had been making love and just being in each other's embrace for the past few days, I was thinking of myself as a selfish bastard who wouldn't let her rest, yet I couldn't stop myself.When Ried decided to be the first one to embrace her, I immediately accepted and took a step back because he was what I was supposed to be to her, and that was an amazing mate. He deserved to mark her before I could even do it.He was so respectful, even when I took over and decided to spend my time with her in bed.I really was lucky to have him as a part
