Saoirse POV One Month Later My life flashed before my eyes as I stared at the two pink lines on the pregnancy test... positive. My heart raced wildly. I felt like I couldn't hear or breathe. I looked at Mira and Elda, my eyes darting between them. A silent plea for help was etched on my face. "What should I do?" I asked, feeling uncertain. "There's no way to know who's the father for now. I mean, we could try magically, but exposing a developing baby with strong magic is not advisable, even more in your case." Said Mira. The looks of pity on their faces were making me feel worse. "Don't worry, Saoirse. Blaze will never blame you." Elda tried to reassure me, but it was not working. I never thought he would blame me, but now I was unsure. "I blame myself. I did nothing to stop Renzo. I even enjoyed it. It was after the act that the guilt started eating me alive!" I dropped the pregnancy test. It was the cruel proof of my weakness. The proof of my unworthiness as a mate. "
Blaze As we ventured deeper into the forest, all sense of orientation was lost. If it hadn't been for Elda and Mira, we would have gotten lost and died of starvation. I hated being here. I wanted to go back to my mate and my children. It didn't help my mood seeing Renzo giving me mocking glances from afar. The witches were easily neutralized. Without their ring leader, they weren't a match for us. They were taken as prisoners, and with their help, it was easier to navigate through the forest. Alpha Mars was in good spirits. Most of the wolves were from his pack. He had sent Julia and his son to his pack before coming here, so he will be heading back home along with Venus and his men. I was grateful to find my cousin still alive among the prisoners. Layla will be thrilled. I saw them leave ahead, and only Renzo, his warriors, and some of mine stayed behind. I gave Renzo a hateful once-over before heading to my car. "What? You're in such a rush to leave, Alpha Blaze?" Said Ren
Saorsia's POV The car ride was an ordeal. The babies cried nonstop, no matter what I did. After waking up, I recalled the pain I felt. Something was wrong with Blaze, and I couldn't go back to him. Jimmy urged us to keep moving forward. If he were dead, I wouldn’t feel our bond, but it was still there, making it more difficult to resist the need to return to him—my mate and the love of my life. "You gotta calm down, Lady Saoirse. Your children are sensing your distress. That's why they're crying so much," Pietr said. I looked at him, tear-eyed and heaving. There was a huge lump in my throat. "How can I calm down when I don't know what happened to my mate?" I shrieked. I had no idea how long it had been since I passed out, but everything around me felt unfamiliar. Suddenly, my phone rang. I reached for it frantically. It was Elda. "Hello!" I panted through the phone. "Saoirse! Wherever you are, don’t tell me, and whatever you do, don’t come back. Things are crazy here. Vlad a
Blaze's POV During the first few days in captivity, I would just wake up sporadically. The poison was lethal to werewolves it was a miracle that I survived. If it wasn't for Dido and her remedies, that wouldn't have been the case. As I sat down across from her, I didn't know if death would be the better option. "Eat your food, Alpha Blaze, my beloved." The way she rolled my name on her tongue revolted me. I have tried to escape this place countless times for months, and I would always end up back here in this cabinet. She would always let me. She never stopped me because she knew there was no way out for me. If it wasn't for Renzo, this would've never happened. During these excruciating months, my loathing for him has multiplied immeasurably. I have no news of my mate and my children. How are things running at my pack? Has Saoirse given birth yet? Is the child mine or Renzo's? My only priority should be getting back to her, but I can't help letting my mind wander when there's no
Blaze This was a decisive moment. There in front of me was my former friend. The man that now I loathed the most. He was demanding my mate to go to him. If this was not a good reason for murder I didn't know what was. Today, he will die. It was time to stop his madness. My sister was better off without this man. He doesn't even spare her from the embarrassment. He just admitted blatantly to have fathered another child with a woman other than his mate, my mate! I will not give him the satisfaction to keep gloating about it. "You'll die today, Renzo! I snarled dangerously. My head was throbbing with uncontained rage. I stepped away from Saoirse, ready to shift, but she held me by the arm. She put a hand on my chest, sending delicious waves through my body. I really missed that soothing sensation that only one's mate is capable of giving. She let go of me and started walking towards Renzo. Wait, what?! "Saorsia, get back here!" I commanded. Renzo's eyes were glinting with triumph.
Azalea Renzo and I appeared in our living room. Our 2-year-old kids were mercifully not playing here at the moment. When Renzo left early this morning, I overheard his conversation with Shane. Shane told him that she was back and that she had gone to rescue Blaze. I asked Renzo to let me go with him. I wanted to see my brother. But Renzo dismissed me like a nuisance and left in a rush without sparing me a glance. He took some warriors with him and left Shane in charge. Later, I made Shane take me as well. He would have either taken me, or I would have gone on my own. The scene I saw when I arrived shook me to the core. Renzo was kneeling in front of Saoirse, begging her to take him back. Of course, I played stupid, like I always do. But I can't anymore. This is pure torture. He calls her in his sleep and begs on his knees for her. There are rumors that they have a child together. Blaze wouldn't have allowed that, so I won't torture myself thinking about gossip. Renzo stood the
Azalea Renzo, or I must say Vlad smirked at me and sat on one of the chairs as he watched me writhing with pain. My eyes were clouded with tears. My children, what will become of them? Renzo's parents were abroad on a business trip, and the rest of the pack members were scared to go against Renzo's orders. Shane opened the door abruptly at that moment. I guess my screams of pain were loud enough to have alerted him. "Luna! Why are there no doctors with you?!"He bellowed, but then he turned his head and saw 'Renzo' casually sitting on an armchair with one of his ankles on top of his knee. Vlad looked at him nonchalantly and gave him an evil smirk. Shane understood that Renzo was not in control at the moment. I had long ago told him about my suspicions. "The Luna is strong enough to give birth on her own. Aren't you sweetheart?!" Vlad said. My blood recoiled. A guttural scream escaped from my throat when the contractions started getting worse. "Beautiful," Vlad said with a creepy
Blaze My Wolf growled. Last night, I saw the pictures of both baby girls. I instantly felt which one was mine, but I also felt a connection to little Selene because she is part of Saorsia, too. Renzo has no right whatsoever to make demands. The door was still open, so I entered without knocking. "My wife will let you meet Selene when she deems it right, Renzo. I would appreciate it if you didn't push her with your demands, like always." I said firmly. "Come, love," I called Saorsia to me. "The children and I were looking for you." Saorsia came to me with her beautiful smile. It was surreal that she was here with me again. When we stepped out of the room, I pulled her in my arms and kissed her. My kiss was demanding and territorial. "I missed you," I said between kisses. We hadn't been alone since we got back together. Last night, we spent it with Liv and Aksel. I still can't get used to how big they are. I just saw Lynn and Lake still playing with their toys in the living room.
Blaze's POV *A Few Months Later* "When I find my mate, I will have a grand wedding like Aunty Dido," Selene declares confidently. "My wedding will be even more spectacular than yours!" Luna counters. All those big words that they can barely pronounce came from Elda. There is no doubt about it. "I'm sorry to break it to you girls, but you won't get married until you're at least thirty." They both gasp and clasp their hands to their cheeks in shock. "Blaze," Saoirse calls me, and I immediately want to go there. Although she whispered, her voice carried all the way to me, thanks to her powers. "Okay, girls, your mama is calling me. Let's go back inside." They run ahead, giggling. Luna's copper hair shines in the sunlight, just like her mother's. Selene's hair is silver blonde. After Vlad died, her black side turned silver, too. Only her eyes remained, one black and one blue. When I reached Saoirse, the girls were already inside. Saoirse was waiting for me by the entrance. Her
Azalea's POV I woke up in Renzo's arms and glanced at the clock on the bedside table. We were late. Renzo and I had made love until dawn last night. As I moved slightly, I felt his morning wood pressing against my thigh. "Renzo, we're late. Your sister is getting married in a few hours," I said. He grunted in response, but instead of releasing me, he pulled me closer and kissed me on my mate mark. A wave of delicious sparks travels through my body. It goes without saying what happened next. Renzo was the most passionate lover. I bite my lip to avoid screaming with pleasure as he pounds inside me. Renzo carried me to the bathroom after we were finished. Last night, he was feeling a bit sentimental. Over the past few years, he and his father have tried to make amends for Dido's struggles for most of her life. She became the little princess of the pack. She will come to live in my brother's pack. I will miss her too; she adores my children, and they do too. She has a very mischiev
Saoirse's POV A guttural scream escaped my throat. Grandma lay on the floor, blood pooling around her, her unsettling smile contradicting the horror of what was happening. I glanced over at Vlad, anticipating what would unfold next. My children, Aksel and Liv, focused their energy, projecting a brilliant light through Vlad's back and chest. I could feel the tension building; he was losing strength, and I knew it. Dido stood resolutely beside Selene and Luna, ready for whatever threat might come. Pietr did the same. "He’s dying," Renzo said, satisfaction evident in his voice. Vlad's black eyes looked empty. He was in agony. Grandma's sacrifice would not be in vain. I focused my energy as my children did and projected a powerful light that pierced through Vlad's skin. His shrieks were terrifying. He was gone, as far as I could tell. I turned to see my grandma. She was gone, too. I felt my heart squeezing. I fell to my knees beside Grandma, and Blaze was instantly beside me. "Saoirs
**Blaze's POV** I stood at the edge of chaos, my heart pounding as flames licked the sides of the mansion, casting flickering shadows around us. Saoirse and the other witches were poised and ready, chanting incantations, their voices blending into a harmonious urgency to extinguish the raging fire. Just then, Azalia appeared, her hair wild and one arm cradling a frightened Ireland. Close behind her, I spotted Andrew, Layla, and their children, Leah and Brandon, alongside Shane and Hanna with their own little ones. Yet, an unease drummed in my chest—my kids were the only ones still missing. "Blaze!! Renzo can't find the twins!" Aza cried out, and the frantic energy hung thick in the air. Liv and Aksel arrived with Saoirse's siblings, and I could feel the tension rising as Star whimpered and Ronan rushed over, carrying an injured Aela. "Mom, are you alright?!" Saorsie exclaimed, her worry evident. "She tried to go back inside to search for Selene and Luna!" Ronan growled, his fru
Saorsia's POV A bright white light engulfed us all of a sudden, I was no longer in the forest. I was in the most beautiful garden in existence. There was a cherry blossom tree blooming with pink flowers. White marble floors and floor-to-ceiling windows surrounded the beautiful garden. Under the tree, there was a white bench. I noticed a beautiful woman sitting on it. "Saorsia, finally my child." She said with a bright smile. Her white platinum hair cascaded down her back, touching the seat of the bench. She was wearing a silk dress, the color of gold. It was toga style it matched the crown that surrounded her forehead. "Se...Selene?" I stuttered. She nodded, and I quickly deepened my head down, vowing with respect. She smiled and touched the empty seat next to her, signaling me to sit down with her. I obliged. Just then, a beautiful wolf approached us. It was white with light blue eyes. "This is rain, your wolf." She said. The beautiful wolf nuzzled my hand as tears prick
Blaze's POV The night of the full moon finally came. Grandma Maeve took Saorsia and the rest of us to the middle of the forest. Pietr, Andrew, Saorsia's mother, and Ronan came. Our twins, Liv and Aksel, were here as well, and lastly, Healer Colin arrived as he was also part of the ceremony. We were all dressed in white for the ritual ceremony. Saorsia's ceremonial robe was stunning. It was incrusted with thousands of diamonds. Tonight was her rebirth. Her long white cape flew softly against the wind. Her porcelain skin was glowing under the moonlight. She looked at me and smiled with those sinfully rosy lips. I was as excited as she was, or even more. "We're gathered here to do the Goddess Selene's bidding. She has claimed another daughter since birth, and it is time that the Goddess bestows her gift on her. My chest tightened with indescribable emotions. My Luna will finally get her wolf. "Tonight, Saorsia, you, daughter of Hecate and daughter of Selene, will experience your
Saorsia's POV The party was at its peak. The garden was bustling with guests. We hired staff to tend to the guests so we could be able to focus only on the children. Blaze and Renzo were doting on the girls. They organized the games and made sure that everyone had fun. Luna and Selene were squealing with glee. At least when they weren't fighting over little alpha Jupiter's attention. I chuckled. Lynne and Lake were so big now. I look at my own children, Liv and Aksel. They should have been the same age as Lynne and Lake, but they were pushed to grow beyond their years. I felt sad just thinking about it. "Hey, why the sad face?" Blaze came out of nowhere. Wolf's speed was something else. "I can't wait to get my wolf," I said with a smile. "I was just looking at the children and thought that our firstborn children never really enjoyed their childhood." Blaze kissed my temple as we looked at the children's play. Shane and Hanna's kids; Sean and Milly, were here, as well as Leyl
Blaze's POV Saorsia's grandmother wanted to talk to us in private. Maeve carried herself regally as she walked towards my office. Her daughters Aela and Ronan followed us as well. We entered my office, and she motioned us to sit down on the large sofas that were facing each other. There was a coffee table in between. Saorsia and I sat across Maeve. "I will start from the beginning. It will be easier to understand." She said with a tired sigh. I put my hand on Saorsia's knee. She was as intrigued as I was. "When Aela was pregnant, she had a difficult pregnancy. A child that is not conceived with a fated mate rarely lives to see a full-term pregnancy, but Saorsia was strong since the beginning. Aela was on bed rest for almost all of her pregnancy. It really helped that Collin was a healer. If not, I'm not sure what could have happened. I prayed to the Goddess Hecate to spare my daughter and my granddaughter countless times, but it was the Goddess Selene who answered my prayers
. **Saorsia's POV** 5 Years Later I stand in the doorway, waiting for Selene. She had spent the weekend at Renzo's Pack, and the helicopter had just landed. Blaze and Luna went to pick her up in the jeep. Blaze treats Selene just like his own children; I could tell he loved her as if she were his own. I wore a content smile as I watched the jeep approach. As soon as it came to a halt, Selene jumped out of the car and ran toward me. "Mama, I missed you!" my adventurous five-year-old exclaimed. I hugged her tightly and planted kisses on her chubby cheeks. "I missed you so much too!" I replied, playfully pinching her cheek. Her black and silver-blond hair was braided into two loose braids—the work of Azalea, I recognized. She loves my daughter as well. What’s in the past stays in the past; we’re a big family now. Trailing behind Selene came her twin, Luna, whose red hair looked like it was on fire under the sun. "I missed you too, Mama!" she said, jumping into my arms. Blaze laug
