Isaiah P.O.V. The word about our interaction and tour through the pack with Flora, and as we returned to the packhouse people were greeting us with smiles and kind words. It especially seemed to warm Ivy, and I couldn’t help but melt a little when children came running up to her, each of them wanting a hug and giving her a wildflower. At the end she hugged about 20 kids and had a whole bouquet of flowers in her hands. She thanked each of them, the crowd watching her interaction with them closely. Murmurs about how natural and kind she is spread through the crowd, and when the last kid was gone, I pulled her to me and whispered in her ear. “I am so proud of you, my love.” She blushes deeply, which only makes me smile even more. She’s so cute when she does that.I lead her inside, where she goes straight up to the kitchen and asks an Omega to help her find a vase for the flowers. “I can take them, Luna and bring them wherever you want them? The kids probably got them from the meadow
Ivy P.O.V.The growl emitting from my mate after the Councilman is done speaking is both thunderous and dangerous. It’s a sound coming from deep within him, warning and a threat. “Ellesar, what do you mean Isaiah brought Ivy here without permission? Does she look like someone who was forced to come here?” Isabella shouts, and the Councilman shrugs his shoulders. “I am sorry Queen Isabella, but I must abide by our laws, and they clearly state..” “Fuck the laws!” Isaiah shouts. I grin. He is sexy when he is mad like this. Then I blush. What kind of thoughts is that? This is not the situation to get excited. “I got permission from King Edor, before taking Ivy home. And she is clearly a member of my pack. You cannot force me to do shit, and I am not rejecting my mate. I don’t care if he is going to war. He is a perverted old fool if he thinks he can win.” “Isaiah. I have known you since you were born. We have always had a good relationship with your parents, but this is getting out of
Isaiah P.O.V. I have been working on my computer for things at the firm and the pack for the rest of the afternoon. Ivy has been with my sister and Lillith, which I think is awesome. I am so happy they are bonding and making friends with each other, so I have only checked in occasionally to make sure everything was okay. I even contacted the kitchen to have them bring the girls snacks and drinks, which made Ivy thank me over mindlink. That girl is seriously adorable, and I can’t wait til she is ready to be mated and marked. I have been thinking of when and where I can propose to her. I know it sounds insane since I have known her for so little time, but when a werewolf meets his or her mate it is usually game over. There are rare cases where a mate is rejected, like the instant with my mother and her first mate. He was a cheating, bullying bastard, and she rejected him on sight and fled her pack because they were mistreating her. She then met my dad, who did not make the greatest fir
Ivy P.O.V.After my talk with the girls, I was so ready to complete the mating process with Isaiah. They made it seem so intimate and wholesome, with a hint of possessive and carnal energies. Everything inside me wanted him in that moment, but when time actually came to it. I backed out faster than you can say mated and marked. I don’t know what it was, but sitting with them all at dinner, Isaiah being all sweet and romantic had me doubting everything I was feeling. Doubting myself completely. Who was I to have the King of werewolves mark and mate me? I am just a nobody. An abomination. A slave in the eyes of my own family. I have never known love, not since my mother died, and everything I knew was abuse and degrading. Tears flow freely down my cheeks as I enter our room. I supposed I should have gone somewhere else, but this was the only safe space that came to mind as I ran from the kitchen. Isaiah doesn’t even follow me, which only fuels the negative spiral I have entered. Rav
Isaiah P.O.V.I position myself at Ivy’s wet entrance. She is so amazing! She has taken such huge steps towards recovery in her short time here. I am in constant awe of her and the way she is coming out of her shell. When I got her naked on our bed, I kept thanking the Moon Goddess! Ivy is by far the most gorgeous woman I have ever seen, and she is mine. When I ate her delicious pussy, I almost came myself! She tastes just as heavenly and she smells, and as she came on my face I was sure I was going to die of happiness. By her expression and questions I gathered this is her first real orgasm. I’m proud of myself. I’m not going to tell her that obviously, but I love how I get to do all her firsts with her. I know Kind Edor did things to her, but I don’t think he ever went all the way. He was probably just waiting. The thought makes me murderous, and I show it to the back of my mind. “This is going to hurt at first, baby, but keep your eyes on me and breathe through it. I promise it wi
Ivy P.O.V. Isaiah made good on his promise. The sun was coming up over the horizon before he let me rest. I was sore all over my body, but the kind of sore that made a girl deliriously happy. We made love on the bed, against the walls, in the shower, on the couch. I don’t think we have a surface in our bedroom or bathroom that has been used for sex. One should think I was in heat, but I would know if I was. Raven has been rolling around in my mind, her tongue out and making all kinds of happy sounds. We even let her and Apollo out a few times. I had finally fallen asleep, but not for long, or so it felt, when I heard the most beautiful voice in the world. “Baby? You need to wake up now. Come on, little faerie.” I roll over, giving my mate a dirty look. “No more sex.” I say with an attitude. Isaiah chuckles. “No, baby. I made you a hot bath.” He says, kissing my forehead. I don't even know if I can stand on my legs at this time? I grumble, but Isaiah just lifts me into his arms an
King Edor P.O.V. The call I have been waiting on since I pressed the Council into not accepting Ivy as their future Queen is finally here. I was hoping for some good news, but alas they have failed me as well. Everyone fails me these days, and I am not used to that! I knew it would be difficult for them, but I also know the wolves abide their Council’s ruling the majority of the time, but of course the fucking King had to make an exception of Ivy. My blood is already boiling when my contact speaks again, and this time I just explode. “What the hell do you mean it didn’t work? Aren’t you the fucking Council? Didn’t you tell him that I will go to war if she is not handed back to me ASAP! What did you actually do to get her back to her home?” I scream into the phone. The man on the other end sighs. “King Edor, it is not that easy or simple. She is mated to the werewolf King, and he is not going to hand her over. Rumor even has it he has mated and marked the girl now, and then it’s goi
Isaiah P.O.V.Yesterday went by in a blur. After we ate lunch with the ranked members, and then went to my office and called Head Councilman Ellesar. He was delighted to say yes to our invitation, and they will arrive in a fortnight, and this way I would be able to meet the newest members of our Council as well. He had to replace a lot when mom and dad were crowned Queen and King because of dissatisfaction with them and treason, and now he had to replace them again because of old age and a death.Then I took Ivy with me around the pack. The more they see and interact with her, the more they will accept her when she is crowned. I plan to have her coronation as Queen in a month along with her Luna ceremony, but she doesn’t know that. I have also thought about proposing to her that night as well. Pack members seem to love her, and I can see why. Ivy is an easy going sweetheart, but she is no pushover, and she will show you her tougher side if it ever becomes necessary. At dinner we talk
Hi all my lovely readers. This is where the new book following Astra, Jasper, Jonas, Flora and Jenna will be updated. It has been decided that the book is so tightly knit to the second book, that I have to update it this way, which also means I will not start updating until the new year, so I have a bundle of chapers to start out with, and it will be a project on the side as I am also looking at signing something new and exciting. But don't worry, I will not let that affect my quality or updating rate, as I hope the extra time until I start it regularly, will give me the opportunity to uodate 3 times a week as I use to. That was the sereious part. Now for someting more related to the new book. After the war is won, and Isaiah and Ivy say goodbye to Jasper, Astra, Jonas, Flora and Jenna, everything seems to be fine. They know Jenna has been acting kinda weird and clingy towards her children and Flora, but everyone has been brushing it off to grief over her mate's death. Jasper howev
Isaiah P.O.V.Ophelia turned out to be a great asset to our motley crowd. And the kids immediately took to her, finding her training fun and relaxing at the same time. Eli, Gabe and the twins understood the importance of practicing meditation and other forms of mental defense. Emmet and Ilina just thought it fun and different, although they had a harder time sitting still both of them were determined to be as good as their siblings. Most of the time Ilina fell asleep during meditations, which Ophelia said was fine. We fell into a good routine after Ophelia also joined us, and soon it was time to prepare the kids to leave the Realm of Magic. We were all sad to go, but I think Ivy was the saddest of us all. She really felt at home here between her parents and all the wonderful creatures we got to meet. On our last day we decided to bring the kids back to the stream, giving Ophelia and Archeron time to pack and be ready for the next day. We have been here for so long, the kids kinda fo
Ivy P.O.V. We have been here for a little over a month now, although I know that is not even half of that in the Mortal Realm, I cannot help but feel a bit bad for just leaving everything to Aiden, Alisa and Isaiah’s parents. They have been doing a great job so far, and only had to call for me twice until now to help solve disputes in the pack, and once for something regarding another pack and a treaty violation. I love to help, and it was nice to see everyone again. Isabella also had some time to yell at me for getting pregnant again, cry because this is definitely the last one and almost faint when I said it’s twins. One of each. We had the doctor another scan just before they called me for the treaty thing, and we got the news. Isaiah is over the moon, and the younger kids are beginning to understand that momma has to be a bit more careful because of the babies in her belly. Ilina has been so loving ever since I came a little further along. Mom says it’s because she can sense them
Isaiah P.O.V.“Well, congratulations your Graces, you are indeed expecting twins again. I understand you wish to have them in your own home, which I understand. You should still be able to enjoy your stay here, but take it easy and with the slightest discomfort, please come see me again.” The female doctor, a former witch, says with a small smile. “I will monitor you from here, but perhaps it’ll be best if someone also notifies your doctor back in the Mortal Realm?” I nod, looking at Ivy, who seems far away. I take her hand, bringing it to my mouth. She turns her head in my direction, but she does not seem to actually see me. “Doc, may we please have a moment?” I ask, also asking Eli to go back to his grandparents. He looks at his mother with deep concern, and I know the empathic side of him is tapping into her, feeling everything she is. “I got her Eli. Please see your grandparents for now, son.” I tell him, leaning down and kissing his hair. He nods silently, following the doctor o
10 years laterIvy P.O.V.“KIDS I AM GIVING YOU 5 SECONDS TO GET OUT HERE, OR WE ARE GOING WITHOUT YOU! 5, 4, 3.. Thank you!” I’m standing outside the packhouse with Isiah, Eli who is 10, and knows by now not to piss off his mother when we’re going somewhere and our youngest, Ilina who is 2 and sleeping in her stroller. Isaiah shakes his head at me, and kisses my temple. I sigh. I know I’m more impatient today than usual, and that says something, because I’m always impatient when we’re going somewhere, but today is very special and we’re going to be gone for quite some time as a family. Out of house rushes our other children; Gabe who is 8, and the actual spitting image of the uncle he is named after, the twins Isobel and Elain who is 6 and finally our 4 years old Emmet. I put my hands on my hips and look them all over, while Eli and Isaiah snickers behind me. They’re just happy they are not the ones who are in trouble this time. “I am blaming us for being late solely on all of you
Isaiah P.O.V.We table this discussion for later, and follow dad out the door and out back where a ton of chairs is placed facing a small decorated platform for me and Ivy. I cannot wait to see her in her dress. I know she is a little self conscious right now, but she is just gorgeous and I love her so much! She is going to be a vision, I am sure of it. We take our place as everyone is finding their seats in the crowd. Aunt Jenna smiles at Jonas and taps a seat beside her. She has placed herself in the front, and with enough chairs free so Jonas, Astra and Alisa can sit with her I think. I just raise an eyebrow and make a last minute decision. “Actually, aunt Jonas is in my bridal party, so he is standing today.” I tell her politely, winking at Jonas. I mindlink Ivy, telling her about my abrupt change and explaining why. She laughs over the mindlink and tells me she’ll inform the others. Flora was made head of the flower girls, and had to stay with them, saving her from my aunt as
Isaiah P.O.V.“A toast to the happy couple! Congratulations, Isaiah! You really are a lucky man.” Aiden says, smiling at me. We are sitting at the breakfast table, just us guys. I raise my champagne glass to him, toasting in silence. The rest say ‘hear hear’ and drink with us. We are having a great morning so far, but I am starting to feel the small nervous jitters of excitement. This day has been long coming, but is finally here. Today I am going to make Ivy my wife! She is already the mother to our son, and seeing her take that role with such passion has been one of the greatest moments in my life! I know she thinks I am a nervous wreck when it comes to Eli, but I just can’t help it. With everything we have been through since I found her in the Fae Kingdom, I am going to keep myself on my toes regarding our son. No one is ever going to hurt him. I know that for sure because they will have to face the wrath of my soon-to-be wife, and I’ll handle the leftovers, but still. He is our so
Ivy P.O.V. Two weeks later We’ve had our little Eli with us for two weeks now and he is just a little angel! I must admit as much as motherhood scared me, and we had some minor setbacks, such as I am not able to breastfeed him, I really love being a mother. The thing with breastfeeding was a hard blow as I had heard so much good about it, but I was just not producing milk. Isaiah has been a trooper navigating my hot mess of emotions - going from high to low faster than Elsa chose to let it go in Frozen. We finally had some quiet time to sit down and watch some movies and be a family - meaning a Disney marathon. It was an amazing evening. Everyone in the pack has welcomed Eli with open hearts, and I could not be more proud. I have also decided to divide my reading time for the little ones with Isabella, as she really enjoyed herself when I was in labor. She has Tuesday and I have Thursday. The kids have been nothing but sweet and gentle with my son, cooing over him and doting whenev
Isiaah P.O.V.4 months later “ISAIAH!” Ivy screams from our room. Our wedding day fastly approaching, but we decided to wait to get married until she had our baby. She’s been a real trooper through the pregnancy, and has been bedridden for the last month because the little rascal may or may not come early if she didn’t. Not that she wasn’t doing everything right before to keep him in there for as long as possible, but sometimes that is just not enough and you have to do more proactive stuff to ensure a full term baby. She’s been having a tough time accepting that, and twice a week I have been carrying her to the downstairs living room, where she has been reading to the littlest pups in the pack. They have been so fascinated with her growing stomach and the fact the next little Alpha is in there. I adore her, swelling stomach and all. She is as beautiful today as she was the day I met her - minus all the bruises. “ISAIAH I MEAN I… OW!” I jump to my feet, hurrying into our bedroom. I w
