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

I gasped, “Andrew, what are you talking about?” He replied, “I’m watching the rogues coming in and I am seeing around three hundred wolves.” I sighed, “Well you guys have them out numbered by two hundred. Plus, you have one hundred Lycans included in that. One of them is equal to three werewolves. You guys have this.” He responded, “Okay. I get it.” I finished, “Let me know when it’s done. I would really like to hear about it.” Andrew replied, “Will do.” Joshua approached me from behind and put his arms around my waist and laying his hands on my growing baby bump. He asked, “Are you okay, love?” I leaned back into him and sighed, “Andrew mind linked. He wanted to tell me he’s glad we’re here because this battle looks like it’s going to be bloody. He saw around three hundred wolves running toward them.” He sighed, “Well, I guess I’m glad we’re here too. I wish we could have fought with them, but I am so glad we’re here together.” I agreed, “I would be lying if I said I’m not worried. I

I asked Joshua, “Do you think we could take a vacation somewhere tropical sometime?” He nodded, “Oh, I think we could arrange that. It may take a while, but I’m sure we could do it. We should wait until after you have the boys though. Flying can be hard on a pregnancy.” I shrugged, “I understand. We could make it a family vacation.” He smiled, “That does sound great.” I sighed as I cleared the table and washed the dishes, putting them in the dish drainer to dry. I dried my hands and went to the living room and sat on the couch with Joshua. I leaned against him, allowing him to wrap his arms around me. I asked, “Have you heard anything about the battle?” I felt his chest rumble as he answered, “Uh-uh. Not a word.” I asked, “Should we link someone and ask?” He answered, “You can try, if you want.” I searched the mind link for Andrew and waited for him to answer, “Hey Alpha, I was just about to link you. I can see an old cabin from where we are fighting. I hope you aren’t in it.” I asked
The Beta's Scarred Mate: A Loner to Luna Prequel Author's Note
I have had several comments asking for the fry bread recipe, so I thought I would include a free chapter with the recipe. I never measure anything when I make it, so this is the recipe closest to what I do. Authentic Indian Frybread 4 cups flour ▢1 teaspoons salt ▢1 ½ tablespoons baking powder ▢1 ½ or more cups hot water ▢2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil ▢1 quart vegetable oil for frying Instructions In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add in the water, mixing with a spoon or your hands until combined. It will be sticky. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of oil over the dough to keep it from drying out. Cover and let rest 2 hours. This is not a risen dough so the dough will not rise, but it does need to rest. Pull off golf ball sized pieces of dough and stretch or roll out until very thin, without ripping it. The thinner the better. Pour enough vegetable oil into a pot to cover it with 2 inches of oil. Heat to 350 degrees F. Workin

As a way to kill some time, I made some fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans and hot-hot for dinner with a blackberry cobbler for dessert. Joshua laughed when he sat at the table, “You would think we are having company for dinner.” I laughed, “Well, we will have leftovers for later.” He smiled, “Very true. I could have blackberry cobbler for breakfast. That would just be perfect for me.” I laughed as I shook my head, “I just wanted to kill some time. I’m worried about this battle. It’s taking a lot longer than it should. I can’t help but worry if they brought more rogues to the battle.” He agreed, “I’ve been thinking the same thing. All we can do is wait for a mind link.” I nodded, “I’m not going to try to link any of them. I don’t want to distract them.” Joshua nodded in agreement and sighed, “After dinner, why don’t we play spades?” I smirked, “Now I know you’re bored. You’re actually asking to get your butt kicked.” He just laughed and shook his head as we continue

After eating my breakfast and taking a shower, I put on a pink sundress and looked in the full-length mirror in the bedroom. My belly was already huge and I was five months pregnant. I couldn’t help but wonder what I was going to look like in three months. I decided to just accept it because there was nothing I could do about it. It was just another price to pay for bringing two new lives into the world. I rubbed my belly and sighed, “Kyle, Kenny, I don’t care what you do to my body. I will heal from it quickly. All I want is for you boys to be happy.” Then I felt it. One of them kicked… hard. I laughed as I rubbed my belly, “You aren’t going to take it easy on mommy; are you?” I walked into the kitchen and poured a cup of coffee. I joined my mate on the couch and asked, “What movie caught your eye? Should I make popcorn?” He smiled as he put his arm around me and I leaned into his chest, “It’s a bit early for popcorn. The movie is a modern version of the story of King Arthur and the

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, “
