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

I sat back on the couch and covered my face with both hands, “What the hell is going on?!” I mind linked Jacob, “Jacob, we have new news and you are not going to like it.” I could tell he was hesitant to hear it, “What is it, Alpha?” I replied, “The rogues took Andrew. You have got to see if you can find Alpha Odell there. If he’s up here, we will squash him.” Jacob added, “And if he’s here, we will do the same. I am choosing the warriors now.” I reminded him, “I want you to stay with the pack. He is trying to get to me by taking as many of my ranked members as he can. I want you to increase security around you and your family. I have a feeling he will try for you next.” Joshua asked, “Are you okay, love?” I shook my head, “No, I’m not. They are doing this to get to me. I know it.” Joshua agreed, “Yes, they are. They left a note. They want you at the place they took Andrew from at midnight tonight or they will kill Andrew.” I growled, “Alpha Odell will be dead long before then.” Joshu

I started relaxing in my mate’s arms when Jacob linked me, “Alpha.” I answered, “Jacob, how is it going?” He replied, “It’s going well. They found Alpha Odell and his mate. They met him on the road. They turned around and followed him to our pack. They had parked down the street from my house and his warriors started walking toward my house. The guards that I had set up around my house were able to take care of them. Alpha Odell and his mate came to the pack house with some warriors. Our team around the pack house was able to get them. They captured Alpha Odell. They made him watch as they killed his mate.” I growled, “He needed to feel some pain. So did they kill Alpha Odell?” He asked, “Do you want us to?” I explained, “That’s what the Goddess wanted us to do. He will never stop trying to take over all of the surrounding packs or coming after me.” He acknowledged, “Then that’s what we will do.” After ending the mind link, I smiled at Joshua, “They captured Alpha Odell and his mate.

We spent three more days in that cabin and, reluctantly, went back to reality. The next morning, I went to my office and sat in my chair. I sighed thinking about how much I missed this room. I walked to my coffee maker and made a cup of hot tea for myself. I sat back at my desk and started on all of the budgets for the pack departments. I had been at it for a while until I caught movement in front of me. I lifted my gaze and found my sister-in-law sitting in one of the chairs across my desk from me, a silly grin on her face, “So, when do you want to go baby shopping?” I chuckled, “You would think my boss would want me to work a full week before I took another day off.” She laughed, “Nah, we need a girls’ day out.” I smiled, “I would like to invite my uncle and aunt up for the weekend and I would like you, Matt and Honi to meet them. I want my Aunt Piper to come with us to shop for baby stuff and the décor for the boys’ room.” She nodded in agreement, “I think that’s a really good idea.

The rest of the week went the same as Monday until Friday morning. I was sitting on the front porch of the pack house with my mate waiting for my Uncle Ace and Aunt Piper to arrive. We received the mind link from the gate guards that they are on pack grounds, so I knew they would be here shortly. Alpha Matthew and Luna Jessie walked out to the porch and Joshua and I took our places beside them. At that moment, two SUVs parked in front of the house and it looked like Aunt Piper didn’t wait for the vehicle to stop before her door opened and she ran out. I giggled like a schoolgirl as she ran to us without waiting for her mate, her giggle matching mine. When she reached us, I took her hands into mine and then wrapped my arms around her in a hug, “Aunt Piper! I’m so glad you’re here.” Uncle Ace caught up with her and hugged me tightly as he whispered in my ear, “The mission was a complete success.” I laughed out loud, “Yes, it was!” We laughed as Aunt Piper looked at us with narrowed eyes

When we reached Bath and Body Works, I went straight for the citrus hand soaps, “I love these scents for the kitchen sink. I love the vanilla scents for the bathroom, because that’s the scent of my body wash that I like.” Honi asked, “What does Joshua think about the different scents?” I laughed, “He says the vanilla smells like birthday cake.” The ladies laughed at the naughty thoughts that I know went through their heads. I tsked, “You were having the same thoughts that he said out loud.” We all laughed as I filled my basket with all of my soaps and body washes that I wanted and I got my body spray too. Jessie raised an eyebrow at the amount of soaps and washes I was getting and I defended, “What? I know I won’t be able to get up here for a while, after the twins are born.” She nodded in understanding then went to grab more of the things she liked, “You’re a bad influence. Matthew is going to look at this receipt and ask why I needed that much soap.” I responded, “Just tell him ther

At Olive Garden, we followed the hostess to our table and ordered our drinks. As we looked through the menus, I already knew what I wanted, so I just waited for the rest of the ladies to decide. Honi asked, “Well, dear, are you having chicken parmigiana?” I laughed, “Nah. I make that at home. I’m going for the fettuccini alfredo with grilled chicken.” Jessie smiled, “That does sound wonderful.” I added, “I have made something similar, called pasta con broccoli, but it never tastes the same as their alfredo sauce.” Aunt Piper asked, “Is that the same recipe your mother used?” I smiled as I nodded, “That one was handed down to us from our mother. It’s one of Ace’s favorite dishes.” The waitress took our orders and I asked that they all be put on one ticket and to give it to me. All the ladies looked at me and I shrugged, “Joshua asked me to pay for lunch for everyone. He wants to do it to thank you all for making me get away from the pack for a day.” Aunt Piper smiled, “Well, remind me

All the way home, Aunt Piper told us stories of when she and my mother were kids and Honi told us stories of Joshua’s and Matt’s antics when they were little. Jessie and I were enthralled with all of the stories and I was so happy to be learning things about my mother. I did find out that my dad was friends with Uncle Ace while he was growing up. They were from neighboring packs and went to the same school. Aunt Piper suggested that I talk to him to find stories about my dad. She smiled, “I know he has some really funny stories of the things they got into.” I smiled, “I can’t wait.” When we got home, Joshua, Matthew, and Uncle Ace stepped outside to greet us. All of their jaws dropped as they watched the omegas file in and out of the pack house making repeat trips with armloads of bags. Joshua smiled, “Please tell me a large portion of this is yours.” I smiled, “I spent a lot of money today.” He laughed, “That’s good.” I threw my arms around him, “We had so much fun and we heard all k

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, “
