Joshua and I went home that night talking about how sweet my uncle and aunt are and how happy I was that they moved back to our territory. When we got back to the pack house, we walked up to our room and got ready for bed. I got in bed and snuggled close to my mate, sighing in happiness, “Goodnight, love.” He smiled, ‘Goodnight my mate.” Josh and I woke up the next morning to my alarm waking us. Josh was the one waking me this time, “Good morning, love. Time to get ready for our doctor appointment.” I smiled, “Ugh. How much time do we have to get ready?” He smiled, “It’s your turn in the shower. Take your time. We have an hour still.” I sighed, “Thank you for giving me plenty of time so I don’t have to get ready in a hurry.” I smiled as I walked to the bathroom and turned on the water. I got undressed and stepped under the warm spray. I washed my body and hair quickly, because even though my hair was significantly shorter, it was still super long and took forever to brush all the tang

When we got back to the pack house, Andrew, Douglas and Jacob were all waiting for us in the office. I smiled as I shook my head at all of them. I sat in my chair and asked, “Are you ready for this?” They all nodded as Joshua dialed Matthew’s office number. He answered on the first ring, “Hey there, guys. What’s up?” I laughed, “Hey Matthew. Are Jessie and Honi close by?” He replied, “Mom is with Jessie in her office. I will get them in here. What’s up?” I smiled, “We just have something we want to tell you all at the same time. I have Andrew, Douglas and Jacob with Joshua and me on this end.” I heard Jessie yell from the doorway, “Good morning! We are here. Are you okay, Izzy?” I smiled, “Yeah. We just saw the doctor. Jessie, I am going to need your help in decorating the twins’ nursery. We have two boys and they are growing like crazy.” Jessie yelled, “Ha! Matthew, you owe me a hundred bucks!” I laughed, “Jessie, you’re so funny.” Honi yelled, “Andrew, I owe you fifty bucks.” Andrew

I thought to myself, “UGH! Rogues.” I decided to move to our bedroom, since it was farther from the door. The windows were covered, so I wouldn’t be tempted to look outside. I was in the middle of getting under the covers when someone knocked on the door. I got a little frustrated and decided to let them knock. I had a change of heart in case it was someone needing shelter and started to get out of bed. I heard scuffling outside my door and got a mind link, “Co-Beta, do NOT open your door.” I answered, “Thank you.” I continued to hear scuffling and when it stopped, I wanted to open the door to find out what happened. However, I received another mind link, “Co-Beta, do not open your door. There are rogues who were able to get into the pack house and you seem to be the target.” I replied, “Please keep them away from the safe room! Keep the children safe! Don’t worry about me!” I heard, “But Co-Beta.” I stopped them, “No! My life is not more valuable than theirs. You get downstairs and I

As Matt walked out of our suite, I wondered what he meant by, “It’s the least I can do.” What happened downstairs? I didn’t want to bother him to find out because he did have a grown ass man slung over his shoulder. I sighed as I looked at the bloody mess on our living room floor. With a sigh and a shake of my head, I went to the kitchen to get my steam cleaner. I filled the reservoir with sanitizer and started steam cleaning and sanitizing the floor in our suite until my mate walked in. I turned off the cleaner and jumped into my mate’s arms, “Oh my Goddess! I’m so happy you’re home. I was so worried about you!” He responded, “I was more worried about you, but Matt informed me that I didn’t need to be. He said you were more lethal than one of our warriors.” I laughed, “I guess my Alpha wolf came out. I set up a station at the end of the hall to be able to shoot anyone who got in.” He smiled as he looked where the door should be, “Looks like you made the right choice.” I smiled proud

As the warriors were led to the dungeons, I asked, “So, speaking of the dungeons, has anyone spoken to the guys that I shot yet?” Joshua chuckled, “I think we’ve been trying to give them a couple hours to heal a little before we injure them further, love.” Andrew laughed, “You shot someone?” Josh laughed, “She even stepped on his wounds to get him to talk a little.” Andrew raised his eyebrows, “Seriously? Shy little Izzy?” I laughed my ass off, “What can I say? My mama wolf came out. Besides, I’ve forced myself to be the Co-Beta this pack deserves and the Alpha our pack deserves.” He chuckled, “You’re doing such a great job too. I have a feeling that once this mall gets off the ground, we are going to have a mass influx of pack members too.” I laughed, “We might want to talk to the builders about starting another new neighborhood.” He asked, “Any idea where?” I laughed, “There should still be room in the east lots. Let me know if we need to buy more land.” He nodded, “Thanks. I’m sure

After we told the guys everything we found out, Joshua growled and pulled me closer to him, “Mine.” I put both hands on his face, “I’m yours, love. Nothing is changing that.” I finally told them, “Paul is willing to cooperate by allowing us to clone his phone and let us see all the texts between them. He is willing to continue texting with them, feeding them the information we tell him to give them. In return, he would like to join our pack.” Alpha Matthew nodded in agreement, “That’s very reasonable. But why is he rogue to begin with?” Luna Jessie told him the story of how he was born into the rogue lifestyle. Alpha Matthew agreed, “He can join our pack. Did you tell him we would make him a member of the pack after all this is over?” Luna Jessie nodded, “Yes. He knows. He wants to be able to help.” All the guys nodded their heads in understanding and Alpha Matthew consented, “We need to get started on a strategy.” I growled, “We need to take out Alpha Odell. I can’t challenge him at

While we waited for Alpha Rinehart to arrive, I started going through the cloned phone. There were only two threads on the text messages. One was labelled “Pack” and the other was a group chat labelled, “Pack and Alpha O.” The group chat made me smile because even though Paul had not returned from the battle, they had not removed him from the group. Joshua saw me smile and asked, “What has you smiling, love?” I chuckled, “There is a group chat on here titled ‘Pack and Alpha O’. They haven’t removed him from the group yet. They’re still talking. Alpha Odell is asking if they got you.” Alpha Lucien asked, “Can I see that? I want to see what was said already.” I handed the phone to him and he scrolled to the top of the thread and read his way down to the most recent, growling loudly. I asked, “What is going on?” Alpha Lucien replied, “He has been trying to get to you since he found out your parents were killed. He has known all along you weren’t killed with them, but he couldn’t find you

Joshua and I packed enough clothes to last over two weeks, just in case. When we were done, we went downstairs and found everyone back in the conference room. When we walked in, we noticed an extra man sitting next to Alpha Lucien. I smiled and approached him, “Alpha Rinehart, it’s so good to see you again!” I held out my hand to shake his, but he took that hand and pulled me in for a hug, “Oh. My. Goddess. It is you. Child, I tried so hard to look for you. When I found out that Alpha Ben had you, I tried so hard to get you out of their hands. I’m so happy you have your pack back and you have such an excellent mate.” I smiled, “Thank you. It was the Goddess’ will that I went through all that I did. It toughened me up to become the Alpha that I was born to be. I’m fine. Now we need to deal with a threat that could, potentially, affect every pack around you. It’s already threatening mine. I’m trying to keep my pack from realizing the threat is affecting them.” Andrew shook his head, “Iz

It has now been twenty years since that awful day. We have had so much happen since then. Kenny took his rightful place as Alpha of the Red Moon Pack when he was eighteen and Kyle took his place as Beta of Cold Springs pack at the same age. Kyle met his mate, Kelly, when an Alpha from another pack brought his family to visit the pack. This is common practice when an alpha wants his daughter to find her mate. They had a boy and a girl and we are so happy to be grandparents! Kenny hasn’t found his mate yet, but I’m sure he will. He is about to go overseas for a summit with a wolf pack in Russia. There is really no point in an alliance with that pack, because it would serve no purpose. We wouldn’t be able to provide aide in a timely manner and we wouldn’t be able to invest to be able to see where the money is going. I have a feeling he is just going to see if his mate is there and I am very happy he’s at least trying to look. Andrew stepped back from his duties as Co-Alpha and built a h

Five years later, I had just given birth to my sixth, and final, child. My son, Ace, may be the youngest, but he is an Alpha through and through. He was a huge baby, weighing fourteen pounds, six ounces and he was twenty-four inches long. It seemed like giving birth to him took forever! He’s a sweet boy, but very impatient. He does love having his butt pounded and being rocked roughly though… just like his brothers and sisters. He started sleeping through the night at one week old and nearly scared me to death. I got no sleep that first time. I was up every hour, checking to make sure he was still breathing and listening to his heartbeat. He has been doing everything earlier than his brothers and sisters. He’s the chubbiest little boy I have ever seen and I giggle each time I see him laugh. Yes, he is one month old and already laughing. I mean laughing so hard his fat rolls jiggle and I love every second I get to see him do it. So do all of my other children. Kenny and Kyle are in sch

The next morning, Joshua and I went to the doctor and found out that I am only one month pregnant, so there is plenty of time. It also looked like there was only one this time, so I was grateful for that. When we left the clinic, Joshua took me to his car, “Get in. I need to show you something.” I got in the car and I giggled as I watched my big, burly mate nearly skip to the driver’s side of our car. When he got in and started the car, he was almost giddy as he started driving. I laughed, “You are acting like a kid with a huge present in front of him.” He laughed, “I can’t wait for you to see this.” We were only on the road for ten minutes and we pulled into the driveway of a house that looked exactly like the house we had designed. It had a huge, fenced-in yard and the house had a Victorian design with lots of windows, curves, and a beautiful porch with a porch swing. I smiled, “This is really pretty. It looks like the house we designed for our family.” He smiled, “Because it is the

Six months later, my little girl was already starting to learn sign language from one of the pack members in Cold Springs Pack. Her name was Lindsay, and she recently moved to the pack in order to accept a teaching position at the new school. When she heard that Jessica was an oracle, she offered to teach her sign language so she could have the ability to communicate her visions. I paid Lindsay extra for the lessons, because she was teaching me, Luna Jessie and our mates at the same time. That extra ability to communicate was invaluable for all of us. We didn’t expect our boys to be so comical about it though. Once in a while, Kenny would try to get Jessica going by standing between me and Jessica while she tried to sign to me for something. I would shake my head at him, chuckling, while he tried to sign back to her, making random movements with his hands. She would get so frustrated she would start yelling, “MA!” I laughed out loud and asked, “What do you need, sweetie? Is brother ma

Joshua and I slept like rocks that night. The next morning, I had to laugh. Joshua asked, “What’s so funny?” I laughed, “I can remember a time when a night away from the kids caused us to get horny as hell. Now we get sleepy.” He laughed, “I guess we need more than one night in a row. One night to catch up on sleep the next night to catch up on each other.” I smiled, “I like that idea. We will have to remember that for next time.” He smiled, “I think we need a weekend away at the enchanted cabin. Just the two of us.” I smiled as I felt his arms snake around me and a kiss on the back of my neck, “I think we need to make that happen soon. For now, we need to go find out what Jada found out.” He reluctantly agreed, “Sometimes, responsible parenting is the biggest cock-blocker.” I sighed, “But it’s worth it. Don’t even try to say different.” He chuckled, “You’re right. These kids are our biggest blessings. I would just really like to try for more.” I laughed, “We can do that any night, aft

That evening, we were in the dining room, eating dinner with all of Red Moon Pack. After everyone was done eating, I stood up and waited for the room to quiet. When I had everyone’s attention, I spoke up, “Red Moon Pack, I’m so happy to be back with all of you and so is my family. As you all know, our daughter was born. Her name is Jessica Marie. I have something to tell you about her that I need to keep within the pack. She is an oracle. I need all of you to keep this information about her in the pack. If word got out, it would set a target on her and our pack. There are still alphas who would use her abilities for nefarious purposes. Are we all in agreement with that?” I heard the whole pack agree, “Yes, alpha!” I continued, “Now, your alpha heir would like to make an announcement, then I will clarify it.” I watched as Matthew and Joshua stood Kenny and Douglas on the table. Kenny put his arm over Douglas’ shoulder and puffed out his chest. He yelled, “My beta, Douglath!” Everyone l

Two months later, Cold Springs Pack was really starting to transform. The school buildings, the rec center and the Jo-Ann Fabrics store were all being built at the same time. The roads leading to each had been created and parking lots for each had been cleared. I had the franchise agreement signed within a week, because I was able to pay all franchise fees for a term of ten years up-front. When they had that much money offered to them, they couldn’t refuse. Jessica started sleeping all night at one month old and Joshua and I couldn’t have been happier about it. I sometimes wondered if she had already started having visions, because she was waking up so much more than our boys did. There was no way to tell if she was. Joshua and I decided that we needed to go down to Red Moon Pack for a couple of days, just to introduce her and have our pack meeting about her. I know that since we already had two oracles in the pack, it won’t be a big issue for Red Moon to keep her abilities to themsel

Joshua’s back stiffened instantly so I started rubbing comforting circles on his back to help him chill out before he answered. Joshua linked, “Thank you, love. I needed that.” Then he turned to the man and replied, “A gifted wolf of any kind makes a pack much stronger. They are highly sought after by alphas with nefarious intent. An oracle has the ability to see into the future from a very early age. Our daughter will be training at Red Moon Pack with a couple of my mate’s cousins to learn how to deal with the things she sees and what to do with them.” The man lowered his gaze, “I’m so sorry, Beta Joshua. I didn’t mean to sound bitter, but Alpha said he would take questions after the meeting, but with all the other excitement, he probably just forgot. Your secret is safe with me. Co-Beta, thank you for all you are going to do for our pack. I think they are all really good ideas.” I smiled, “You’re very welcome. I want to see our pack happy and flourishing.” Joshua replied, “You’re fin

One week later, Alpha Matthew called a mandatory pack meeting for all pack members. Joshua and I had decided to eat dinner in the dining room with our children this evening, so that we could make it to the meeting. We were bombarded with pack members constantly walking up to us and gushing over all of our kids. Joshua waited until no one else was around us and leaned into me, “This is what happens when we don’t eat with the pack regularly.” I sighed, “Okay. I get it. Should we eat down here a couple nights a week?” He replied, “That might not be a bad idea. It may get to be a bit much for you to cook after you work in your office all day. Especially with these three, if you aren’t going to use the daycare.” I sighed, “I want all of our kids to learn by example. They will learn what a co-beta does and what a beta does by watching us. I think that’s really important. I would also like our girls to spend time watching Jessie too. Some of our girls may end up being luna.” Josh laughed, “
