The Fated Mates Fifty Six
"What the fuck do you mean?" Avery finally asks after a pregnant pause."There are two she-wolfs who are carrying children," the girl repeats, and Avery rises from her seat."Oh, Avery, Louisa," Lilith exclaims, slapping the table as she puts the pieces together.Avery raises a brow, sitting back down and staring at the woman in the corner.She doesn't say anything else, retreating back to her knitting."She lost her mate to this," Byron murmurs, "I'd take everything she says with a pinch of salt.""I can hear you. Being mateless doesn't make me deaf," the woman scoffs, scowling over her half-formed scarf.Avery tries to cover her chuckle with a cough at this remark, and she quickly shakes her head, forcing herself to focus."What do you want us to do though, Wilcott?" The other man asks, and Avery frowns at him."Alpha," she simply says, staring at him intensely, and releasing some of her dominance.The woman with the knitting cringes at the influx of power, Byron blinks rapidly, and

Avery secures her hair into a tight braid and then laces up her boots."You look like you're going into a war," Lilith comments, sitting up slightly from the bed.Kali nods in agreement, eating some of the popcorn out of their shared bowl."I would rather go into war than walk into this interrogation," Avery admits truthfully, sighing ruefully as she smooths down some flyaway hairs."It won't be that bad; you're being dramatic!" Lilith exclaims, getting off the bed and walking over to her friend.Avery looks at her, and shakes her head, rolling her shoulders back and trying to relax a little."You're so tense," Kali observes, watching the two move around the room, Avery side-stepping away from Lilith, who appears to be trying to straighten the Alphas collar."You would be too, if Mama Bird was chasing you," Avery grumbles, eventually stopping and letting Lilith fidget with her clothes.Lilith rights the collar, and she brushes some fluff off the black jumper Avery has on, scowling whe

"We need to hurry; we're going to be later than I thought," she mutters, starting the engine before she entirely sits down."I told you we would be," he reminds her, rolling his eyes and sitting in silence."Are you nervous?" She asks, trying to make conversation while she tunes the radio."No," he responds, staring ahead of himself."Right," Avery mutters, stepping on the gas and willing her car to go faster.She takes on the corners with little caution, and more than once Hayden has to hold himself back from cursing as he grabs onto the handle above the window.When she nearly smashes into a tree, Hayden has had enough, and grabs the steering wheel."You crazy bitch, are you trying to get us both killed?" He glares at her, and she slaps his hands off the wheel."I don't want to be any later than we have to be," she comments, not looking over at him.Well, that got his attention, Sonya quips."Well, we'll be very late if we're dead," he fires back, "I happen to have something to live

The next few hours, everybody was on autopilot.Everybody was going everywhere, but nobody knew what they were doing.Zephyr was called, but nobody could remember who phoned him.This had never happened before. The Alpha of Moonstone Mountain burst onto their pack lands with no warning in a flurry of horror.Avery had stormed into the emergency room, her trench coat swirling around her legs and her eyes flashing black.Nurses and doctors had gotten out of the way as quickly as they possibly could, and some patients fainted at the sheer level of dominance she was giving off.When Zephyr arrived at the hospital, he had found Avery pinning the paramedic she had recognised up against the wall.Her eyes were completely black, and Sonya didn't even make a note of Zephyr entering the break room.She was completely distracted by the possibility of bloodshed"Avery, have you found anything?" He barks, and she turns to him quickly, holding the woman up by her throat."No. I'm trying to get inf

Okay, honestly? I did not see that one coming, Sonya admits, absolutely baffled.Neither of them is really sure what's going on.Okay, that doesn't mean she had anything to do with Lilith's disappearance, Avery reasons to herself, and then clears her throat, returning to speaking to the man who's waiting for a response.What time was the call made at?, Avery asks, and the man clears his throat awkwardly.She can practically feel his nervousness through the link.Just before 2 pm, he quickly responds, and Avery furrows her brows, pulling out her cellphone and looking at her call history.She squints at the recent callers until she finds Kali's number, and then she frowns."Somebody tell me I'm not crazy, and that this number is two," Avery urges, holding her phone out in front of her.Louisa grumbles, and then peers at the screen and rolls her eyes."Yes, it says two," she drawls, putting her free hand onto her hip.Avery silently nods and returns to the man on the link.Thank you, she

The four of them keep walking, but Hayden isn't happy.He doesn't want to be in danger of dying when he has the chance to finally see his son again.But he also doesn't go back on his word, so he's struggling to continue.His wolf is at war with him, torn between self-preservation and a need to protect others.Avery is having a similar battle, but the need to protect her friend wins every time.She can sense the tension in the air, and she glances back at Hayden."You can go back if you want to," she shrugs, and he clenches his jaw."I'm no pussy," he snarls, and she rolls her eyes away from him."I never said you were," she says quietly, "I'd just understand if you wanted to go to the surface."He doesn't respond, and they walk for another few meters until Louisa stops suddenly."What's wrong?" Avery asks, and Louisa slams her hand over her sister's mouth immediately, pointing to the wall beside them.Avery raises an eyebrow and tries to talk, and Lilith frantically shakes her head,

It's so dark in the tunnels that it's almost impossible to see more than five feet in front of yourself.I'm the one doing all of the work, Sonya reminds her irritably. Her phone rings suddenly, and she pulls it out of her pocket after she pushes the boy against a wall to keep a hold on him."Yeah?" She asks, and she hears coughing on the other end."Ave, I'm sending Zephyr in," Louisa chirps, and Avery nods.She realises her sister can't see her through a phone and resists the urge to groan."That's perfect, thanks, Lou," she sighs, and Louisa hangs up.She was civil in that sentence, Sonya gasps dramatically. Avery ignores her wolf and pulls the boy away from the wall, continuing the descent.It eventually levels out, and the front boy starts shaking.Avery notices there's a large emission of power somewhere nearby - nothing that she can't handle, but she can see Hayden is trying not to flinch, and the boys are both vibrating with fear."What is that?" Avery asks her prisoner, and

A tapping noise greets Avery as she opens her eyes."Shh," she mumbles, rolling over.As she rolls over, she rests her weight on her face.A hiss leaves her lips, and she bolts upright, clapping a hand over the bandage covering her cheek."Wasn't that stupid," Hayden mutters, looking up from his cellphone."Why am I here?" She grumbles, and he sighs, pulling his legs off the arm of the chair he's slumped in."You fainted. I had to carry you all the way here, and you're a lot heavier than you look," he grunts, and Avery scowls at him."You could have left me there," she snaps, looking down at the hospital gown she's in."Who changed me?" She asks sharply, and he rolls his eyes at her."One of the nurses, they wouldn't let you wear filthy jeans to lay down on their clean beds," he sighs, settling back into the seat."Oh," she mutters, "why did I faint?"Hayden sighs again, shaking his head at her."I'm not a doctor, so I have no idea. I pressed the call button when you started making no

Roman stammers, caught off guard by Milo's question. "Well, uh... I suppose it could be," he mumbles, rubbing the back of his neck nervously.Avery's laughter fills the room, and she walks over to Roman, placing a gentle hand on his arm. "Milo, sweetheart, your dad and I have already made a commitment to each other. But finding this ring again just reminds us of the importance of our bond," she explains, giving Roman an affectionate smile.Milo rolls his eyes playfully. "I know you guys are already together, but still, proposing with a ring that got thrown into a lake? That's pretty cool," he says, grinning mischievously.Roman chuckles, relieved that Milo isn't disappointed by his response. "Well, I can't argue with that," he says, pulling Milo into a playful headlock. "You're a smart kid, you know that?"As they engage in their playful banter, Hallie tugs at Avery's hand, looking up at her with wide eyes. "Mommy, does that mean you and Daddy are gonna get married again?"Avery's hea

"Mom, what's this?" Milo asks, his hands flying through Avery's old wooden jewellery box.The nine-year-old is excitable and energetic, and Avery is half asleep still."What's what?" She asks, covering her yawn with her hand while she leans in the doorway.Roman can hear the two of them from the bed and inwardly groans.If Milo is awake, that means four-year-old Hallie and one-year-old Parker are going to follow soon."This circle," he says innocently, pulling a small metal ring out of the box."That's a ring, sweetheart," Avery explains, walking over to where he stands.She wraps an arm around him, pulling him to her and kissing his temple."You don't wear rings," Milo frowns, his nose scrunching up when Avery kisses his head."I found that when I stayed at dad's pack, literally years ago," Avery realises, gently prying the old ring out of Milo's hand and examining it.Some of the original chain is still attached, but it's mostly broken off, which she understands is almost definitely

"I can't do all of the work," Avery snaps, snatching the boiling pot off the stove and switching it off."Hallie, honey, hands away from the hot stuff," Avery strains to sound sweet, giving her daughter a small smile."Sorry, mommy," Hallie mumbles, the tiny child wandering back over to the kitchen table."I'm not asking you to do all of the work," Roman retorts, manoeuvring around their child to get over to Avery."I came home from a weekend-long Council meeting to the house looking like a junkyard. Which had been set on fire," she reminds him, her eyes flashing irritably as she mixes her homemade vegetable sauce."What did you expect to come home to? We have a three-year-old," he reminds her, equally annoyed and snappy.Hallie watches the two of them with wide eyes, swinging her legs from the high stool she managed to clamber onto."I am three months pregnant, working two full-time jobs, and raising our daughter basically by myself. I cannot do this," Avery snarls, slamming the pot

Her left hand rests on her bump as she brushes through her hair with her right, exhaustion apparent on her face as she fixes herself for her meetings.Putting the brush down onto the dressing table, she slowly hauls herself up from her stool, wincing as her back aches at the sudden movement.Roman can hear movement from where he is in the bathroom, and he quickly hurries out, his eyes widening as he spots his very pregnant mate moving around."Ave, I told you to call me!" He scolds, and she scowls at him, slapping his hand off her arm."I'm not an invalid, I'm just pregnant," she scoffs, waddling around the room to find a hat."Yes, very pregnant," he reminds her with a frown, grabbing a tan wool hat for her.It matches the only coat she wants to wear nowadays, so he figures that she can't be too upset at his pairing of the two.She stares at it for a moment, taking it off him gently and cramming it onto her head roughly, glancing at the time."I can drive you if you give me two minut

It feels like everyone Avery has ever known is staring up at her intently.She can feel sweat building up on the back of her neck, and she tugs gently at the silk scarf hanging around her neck as she glances up at Roman."You're probably wondering why we called this pack meeting," Roman begins, and looks down at Avery.He raises an eyebrow at her.Are you going to continue, or do I have to keep talking?, he asks urgently, and Avery has to hold back a smile.She likes knowing that he's just as nervous as she is, because he doesn't usually express much emotion, especially in front of either of their packs.Both packs together?Forget it.I might faint if I try to talk, she responds, and she isn't lying.Sonya has gone radio silent out of absolute fear, and Avery herself feels ridiculously light-headed.You can face down packs of rogues and vampires, but a speech makes you crap yourself? Really?, Avery grumbles to a slightly miffed Sonya.Those rogues aren't expecting me to make a speech

She lays the white plastic down on the counter, brushing the strand of hair that fell into her face away from her eyes."They're all positive," she murmurs, looking over her shoulder to a very pale Roman."I think I'm going to be sick," he whispers, sinking down against the cupboards."Don't lean against the wood, you'll get blood on it," she snaps, washing her hands in the kitchen sink.He absentmindedly reaches around to his back and begins unclipping his chest plate, staring at the pregnancy tests on the kitchen island.Avery slaps his hands away and unclips his armour for him, gritting her teeth."Stupid," she growls, and he looks up in alarm, raising his eyebrows in confusion."What did I do?" He asks, slowly hauling himself up from the ground."Not you, me," she sighs, shaking her head miserably."What are you talking about, you crazy girl?" He furrows his brows, wrapping an arm around her shoulders, pulling her towards him gently."I've constantly been shifting, and I just foug

"Yeah, I did, I'm not being responsible for getting them all back to their rooms later," she chuckles, glancing out the window."Do you know how many people are going home tonight?" Roman calls from the bathroom, turning the water back on."I think a few Alphas are, but I'm not sure," she responds, laying the makeup she's using for the dinner dance out on the dresser."Oh, I thought everyone would stay for the dinner," he shouts, and she nods to herself."Some of the Alphas are really annoyed that they didn't rank too well, I'd say they're running home with their tails tucked between their legs," she sighs, and she reaches into her suitcase to find her hair products.Do you want to join me in here?, Roman links her, and Avery raises her eyebrows, trying not to laugh.No thanks, I don't want to get my hair wet, she snorts, quickly replying to some of the emails while she waits for him to get out of the shower.As soon as he opens the bathroom door, she breezes by him, clutching towels
