We are finally married. It may have taken over five years give or take, but we still got to this point. The reception was amazing, everyone was mingling and having fun. Jake and Haley had some good news. It turns out they are mates, I was so happy for them. Maverick refused to leave my side all through the reception. It was actually adorable.Maverick was officially my Consort and I was his Luna. We were a team. After our wedding night we planned on moving to the palace that was built for my parents while they move into our house. It was a plan that my parents came up with, they said as the King, I was supposed to live there with my Consort.I am tired of being in these shoes, I look at Maverick and he understands that I am ready to go home. “Hello everyone, I would like to thank you for attending our wedding but your King is tired and I have to get her home. You can continue the party without us, good night.” He says to everyone, once he is done, we head out to the car. Axle is alre
Two Weeks LaterMaverick is holding my hair back as I throw up in the toilet, I have been throwing up every morning for the past week. I suspect I may be pregnant or it is a period symptom. “We need to go to the pack hospital today, I cannot keep watching you in pain,” Maverick says, “Yes, we can go as soon as we shower,” I tell him.We both take a shower, we always take a shower together, it is intimate and we like it. Once we are done, we dry ourselves up and dress up. When we are done getting ready, we head out. We do not take the car because the pack hospital is not far from the palace. I suppose we could have asked the doctor to come over but I prefer going to the hospital, I do not want the doctor to leave any other patient for me.When we arrive at the hospital, we are taken to a private room and we are told to wait that our doctor will be with us shortly. As we wait for the doctor, I turn to Maverick who is walking around the room, “What if I am actually pregnant? How would yo
Four Months LaterJolene is now five months pregnant and the pregnancy has been stressful to say the least. She has had difficulty sleeping, she always tosses and turns and I always hold her until she finally calms down, she also experiences bouts of dizziness and lower back pain. I have been giving her back massages every night to help with the pain.She had swollen feet for a while so we do not walk as much as we used to do. Although I make sure we walk at least once a week for exercise, doctor’s orders. She also has pregnancy brain. One day while we were eating, she carried her fork and started using it to comb her hair, and using her soup to wash her hands. I had to gently remind her that it was not water but soup. We have an appointment with doctor May, tomorrow to find out the sex of our baby. We have been going to prenatal classes and she has been taking medication to help her with the pregnancy. I know it is taking its toll on her, physically and mentally, but she has been so
I am currently in the hospital. I was admitted two days ago since my due date is two days from now. I miss going to bed with Maverick, I really hate being in hospitals for long. When I was younger, before I found out I was a Lycan, I used to get sick with human illnesses and was in and out of the hospital.Ever since then I have hated being in hospitals for more than two days. Maverick comes to see me every day. Actually, it is more like he does not leave my side until it is for me to go to bed. I am sure he misses me in his bed also. Judging from the bags beneath his eyes, he has not been sleeping well either.I am currently laying on the bed with one of the books that Maverick brought for me to keep my mind occupied while I was here so that boredom would not drive me crazy. Maverick is asleep in the chair by my bed. I look up from my book and study his face as he sleeps, all of a sudden, I feel a cramp in my stomach.&
Jolene was discharged from the hospital the next day and we came home with baby Harlan and baby Luna. I had gotten two baby car seats so we could put them in the car with us. When we arrived at home, our family and friends were there already and they had thrown us a small party congratulating on us.I saw Cynthia and Austin also, he was running around excited. The party was wonderful and we went around mingling with our pack members. they were all excited about the birth of our twins, they all kept coming to look at Harlan and Luna. the party went on till it was 7pm. Pack members started going home and congratulating once again before they left.Once it was just our parents and our betas and thirds left, with Cynthia and Austin, they all brought out gifts and handed them to Jolene. “Thank you so much for this party you guys threw me and for these amazing gifts, I really appreciate each and every one of you. We also have a
“Harlan, come here, we have to take our picture with the cake,” yelled Luna. Harlan left Austin and ran over to where Luna was standing, “Okay, let us get this done,” he tells her. I position myself between Harlan and Luna while Maverick sets the camera up, “Mave, do not forget the timer,” I tell him.He nods and sets the timer, once he sets it up, he comes to stand beside Luna. we smile and we hear a click. “Austin, do you want to be in the next one?” I ask him. He nods and comes over, Maverick resets the timer and this time, Harlan, Austin, and Luna are standing in the middle with Mave and I at the ends.We take the picture and the kids go off. They just turned seventeen and this was the year that they would find their mate. we were going to take Harlan and Luna on a trip across the supernatural world to help Luna find her mate in order to fulfill the prophecy. As for Harlan, I
When we woke up the next day, we took a shower and dressed comfortably for the trip, we were going to see the remaining werewolf packs first. Jolene and I headed down to the dining room, Harlan, Luna, and Austin are just coming out of their rooms and join us in the dining room.The cook sets the plates of food on the table and heads back into the kitchen. We all start eating and we finish our breakfast quickly. We head to the front door. Some of the wolves had helped us to pack our things into the royal car. It was a G-wagon, it could contain all of us comfortably and our things.By the time we get into the car and are situated, every one is nervous. This would be our first time leaving this area and exploring the supernatural world. Harlan is behind me, I am the designated driver. Austin is beside him, and Luna is beside Austin and behind Jolene. The witch that told us the prophecy also gave us map.
Luna’s POVI wake up to someone banging on my door, “Luna wake up, we have to get ready,” Austin says, I open the door, “How late am I?” I ask him. He looks through the open door and he sees the check-in guy from last night waking up slowly, “Luna, why is this dude in your bed?” he asks me slowly.I think of lying that nothing happened, but it is pretty obvious that we had sex. The guy is in only his underwear and I was wrapped in a sheet. “Uhm, funny story. I was really horny and bored, I knew you guys were ‘busy’ and so were mother and father, so I decided to go have some fun,” I tell him.“I met him, I got a bottle of wine and brought him up to my room. do not worry, we used protection,” I finish. “So, he did not do anything diabolic to you right?” he asks, “goddess no,” I say. “Okay, get him out of here and get
I was happy for this time I had, I used it to have another meeting with my family members, the idea was to find a solution to the vampires problem, I met and urge with those who I could to assist while sending a message to others to help before there is a shortage. The feed back was more than pleasant, we had more and more volunteers and all their blood work came out clean, before long the vampires had their kingdom in check, everyone who was poisoned with the bad batch were in no time cleared, Alaric on the other hand barely called and seemed to be very busy, I knew he was recovering and possibly scheming, but I was happy provided it was all rhetorical and whatever plan he might make possible was all faulted by us. Alaric came back after three days visiting his “mother”He drove into the compound and got out of his vehicle I rushed to him and hugged him tightly “Babeeeee! I have so missed you sooo much” I said as I pecked him He smiled sweetly at me“So how is your mum now?” I a
I woke up to the sound of Alaric voice, he was singing out loud and cheerfully as if he had won the lottery, I knew he believed he was winning in this silent battle he was having with me and my family but I knew he was in for a rude awakening I also perceived the nice aroma of breakfast, what ever he was cooking was definitely going to be very delicious He was cooking for me again I noticedHe really can be romantic but I smiled as I knew it was all a ruse, this was all a front to deceive and manipulate me but I was willing to allow him take advantage of me if this is his method of doing it. Alaric feels he is playing me whist it is the other way around, I want him as distracted as possible so he would not know how time flies. I could already smell from my room that he was cooking and that it was going to be delicious. There was a time I was worried about his food, worried that he might poison me or try to control meI was not really concerned about the control or him taking my
I knew past day I have given all my time to Blake because of how much I missed him, i know before Alaric comes for me I need to have a private meeting with all my family members, I knew this could possibly be our last moment together before the inevitable happens so I need to be sure everyone was on the same page. I made a mental connection to everyone I could, that we should meet in the dining room alone to go over our plan. I remove what I wore to bed and walk to the bathroom. I stand at the sink and brush my teeth. When I am done, I step into the shower and turn on the tap. I wash my hair and when I am done with washing my hair, I start washing my body. I finish with my shower and dry my body with my towel. When I finish, I wrap the towel around my hair so it can dry. I leave the bathroom and walk to the vanity. When I get there, I plug in my hair dryer and start blow drying my hair. Once I am done with drying my hair, I put on hairspray and I style my hair. I brush my hair until
As we stood there, disoriented and shaken, a distant sound caught our attention. The rumble of an approaching vehicle grew louder, filling us with a glimmer of hope.Within moments, headlights illuminated the darkened road, revealing the figure of a passerby. A kind stranger had stumbled upon our wreckage, offering a helping hand in our time of need.As the headlights grew brighter, casting a glow upon the wreckage, a wave of relief washed over us. The stranger approached with cautious steps; his concern evident in his eyes. It was Blake."Blake?" I murmured in disbelief, my voice barely above a whisper. I couldn't believe the twist of fate that had brought him to our side in this moment of desperation.He nodded, a mixture of surprise and concern crossing his face. "Luna, Alaric, what happened? Are you both alright?"Alaric, still recovering from the impact, managed a weak nod. "We were in an accident. The car crashed, and we need help."Blake immediately sprang into action, his quic
So, I had stayed inside, curled up in my blankets, trying desperately to distract myself with a book. However, it proved to be useless, and I ended up spending most of the afternoon watching TV in silence, occasionally sipping an occasional cup of coffee when I was bored.It had started raining halfway through my fourth cup of coffee, and the raindrops were falling onto the windowsill as I sat huddled underneath my covers, my knees pulled up to my chest and my arms wrapped tightly around my legs. A few minutes later, the front door swung open, and a mixture of anticipation and apprehension filled the air. My heart skipped a beat as I sat up, hoping it was him, hoping for a chance to reconnect. But as I heard the loud clattering noise, my hope turned to confusion, and I couldn't help but follow the sound."Dad!"The word escaped my lips before I could stop it, a combination of surprise and uncertainty. There he was, my father, walking further into the house, his presence stirring up a
They sat there for a moment. The only sounds in the room were their quiet breaths. Their footsteps echoing softly throughout the empty restroom. The ticking of the grandfather clock somewhere far away in the distance. They listened to its rhythm until Luna pulled back, resting her head on his shoulder again. Alaric looked down, catching sight of the bracelet she wore around her wrist. A simple silver band with tiny white flowers embroidered onto it. It reminded him of the sunflower bracelet his grandmother had given him when he was younger. He smiled faintly at the memory, running his thumb across the band. "It's funny. Before Mom died, she bought me this bracelet, too," Alaric murmured, his fingers tracing the delicate patterns on the bracelet lightly. "The sunflower represents hope…" he mumbled. Luna lifted her head, her eyebrows knitted together as she looked at him in confusion."Hope?" she questioned. Alaric shook his head slightly, smiling weakly. "Yeah." He paused, trying to f
She'd grown up without parents or a loving family, and though she'd managed to make some friends here in The City, she was far too lonely for her own good. He had never known any other woman who felt the way he did when he first laid eyes on her, and if this was their only chance at happiness together, then Alaric would not pass it by without making it count. He knew she liked men - he'd caught her eyeing up a few of them on occasion - and he hoped that once they got past the awkward stage of 'letting their feelings show', this could be a relationship where he wouldn't have to worry about disappointing her. There were so many things about Luna that made Alaric's chest feel tight and warm inside. Her smile, the sound of her voice, even the way she smelled. It all left him feeling so… so… "And besides," said Luna, smiling back at him with an impish look in her eyes. "Who wants a boyfriend who makes their job a nightmare?"They both chuckled, but neither could resist looking down at th
I couldn't contain my excitement as I reunited with my family, feeling the warmth and love radiating in the air. We gathered in the cozy living room, enveloped in laughter and joy. Embracing my parents tightly, I soaked in the comforting familiarity of their presence. It had been far too long since we were all together.Seated on plush sofas, we began sharing stories, eagerly catching up on the events that had unfolded during our time apart. My father animatedly recounted his latest adventures in his workshop, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm."You should have seen the intricate clock I crafted," he said, a gleam of pride in his voice. "Every cog and gear working in perfect harmony. It's a testament to the beauty of precision."My mother chimed in; her voice filled with admiration. "And your garden, dear. It has flourished under your loving care. The roses have bloomed like never before."As the conversation continued, I listened intently, cherishing every word as it painted a vivid
I woke up the next morning to my alarm screaming at me. It was so loud that I thought my eardrums were going to explode at the very next second, grumbling against my pillow.I contemplated on ignoring it or just going back to sleep after attending to it I finally chose an option that I did not thought of before I checked the time and it was six o’clock. A little bit of relief came to a sigh on my lips. I thought that I had overslept for a moment considering all the time I had procrastinated before coming to check the clock and so I stretched my hand and I turned off the alarm and sat up from bed. It was so early and my stomach was already growling, I couldn't imagine how hungry I was and so I needed to get ready for breakfast…I was craving something easy like cereal because I was already starving a lot.&nb
