The Imperial Wolf Kate
Kate POVI hear a loud ruckus coming from outside. I wait to see what happens. Erick seems to be trying to defuse the situation. It must be my father and one of his sidekicks coming to talk to me about my predicament. I wish I could make it one day without some sort of situation involving myself. How will I raise a baby with some sort of issue always going on in my home? Hopefully, my father has the answer. He is the last person I want help from, but I will take help where I can get it right now.The argument seems to move into Erick's office. I should go and listen see what is going on down there. I go down the stairs and through the kitchen. Cassie and the nanny are cooking. I avoid eye contact, so I do not have to explain myself or what I am doing. It seems I have to do that a lot lately, and I am not in the mood to do that right now. Right now, I am only interested in what is going on in Erick's office, not explaining myself to anyone. I am the Luna, and I should not have to answe
The Imperial Wolf Erick
Erick POVThe air in the house is thick. Everyone is on edge with Desire here, and Kate is more straightforward than usual. No matter what I say or find out, I believe she will do what she wants, no matter the cost. We have to take in all the information and be careful. We cannot risk the baby, her life, or the pack. She needs to understand her role in all of this.I go down the stairs into the kitchen. Desire and Cassie are staring at one another. It looks like a stand-off. Neither one is really saying anything. Cassie worries about the pack and my family, but Cassie will always put the pack first.I grab Desire by the arm. "Come with me; we need to finish our conversation," I say to her.I take her into my office, and I slam the door. "Listen up, first off, and I will help you find Alexander, and not because Kate said I would, but because he can help Kate. After all of this, he will no longer, and you will no longer be welcome here," I growl at her."How does the Luna of this pack f
The Imperial Wolf Kate
Kate POVI get in the truck with Cassie. We pull out of the driveway and start driving toward the omega house. "The log cabin Isabella lives in is right beside the omega house; you have seen it before," Cassie says."Yeah, but it was vacant. No one lived in it back then," I say to her."Oh yeah, but after all of Lester's wolves joined the pack, we had to utilize as many of the old cabins as we could. This pack was once a huge pack. The numbers went down when Erick's father was Alpha. Mostly because of his mother," Cassie says."Why did Isabella choose a house so far away from everyone else?" I ask her."You will see when you meet her. She is a bit odd but delightful. She does not care much for other people and only wants to be left alone. I go check on her and make sure she has what she needs. She is an ancient lady wolf. I am surprised she is still alive," Cassie says."Well, I hope she is alive when we get there," I say."Oh, she is; she is too mean to die," Cassie says."I thought
The Imperial Wolf Kate
Kate POVCassie and I leave the old lady Wolf's house heading back to the house. I hold the box of pictures on my lap. "Are you going to open them, now? I mean, aren't you this least bit curious?" Cassie asks me."I am curious," I say, opening the box.As we drive past the Omega house, Erick's mother comes running toward the truck. "Stop, Kate, Stop!" she yells."Do you want me to stop?" Cassie asks."Maybe we should. It has to be serious if she is flagging me down," I answer her.Cassie stops the truck. "What do you want?" I ask her."Did she tell you about your family?' Erick's mother asks me."Is that why you flagged me down?" I ask her."That, and I wanted to see if it is true? I wanted to know if the Luna is pregnant. You better run and hide Luna Kate; the imperial is coming for you," she cackles and runs back into the house.Cassie steps on the gas. "I think she has gone mad," Cassie says."Let's not tell Erick about this, okay," I say to Cassie."I totally agree with you on tha
The Imperial Wolf Kate
Kate POVThings almost seem normal, even after I watched my husband leave to go look for Alexander. I felt at ease for the first time in a long time. Even though he left me to go to the old imperial camp, I feel safe, and I feel like he is safe. I know Erick and Desire can handle Macon. I hope Alexander is alive and can return home.I sit down at the kitchen table with Cassie and Austin. I drink a cup of coffee and watch Austin beam as he interacts with Cassie. "He loves you so much," I say to her."He is a special kid. I love him," Cassie responds."I can tell that," I say. Cassie feeds Austin a snack while I sip my coffee. Austin's nanny leaves for the night, leaving only the three of us in the house."John usually checks in on us at night, and I have not heard from him or Trip," Cassie says."Trip is probably enjoying his new baby and not worried about what we are doing over here," I say."Probably, but it is really unusual to not hear from John when Erick is away on business," Cas
The Imperial Wolf Kate
Kate POVI lay in bed crying for my husband. I need to be strong, but I cannot bring myself to stop crying. I want Erick home with me. Why did I send him to rescue Alexander? I should have stayed out of the damn vampire business. One of these days, I will learn to listen to Erick. If something has happened to him, not only will I have lost my husband, but the pack will have to lose their Alpha.Cassie knocks on the door leading into the master suite. "Kate, honey, are you okay?" Cassie asks me."No, I am not okay. I am freaking out. I want to know where Erick is at and why he did not come back," I answer her."Alpha Erick will be fine, and besides, he has that badass vampire with him," Cassie says."You like her, don't you?" I ask Cassie, laughing. The thought of Cassie being attracted to a vampire, I swear that is hilarious."I am happy to see you laugh. I like Desire. She seems like a badass," Cassie says."See, and I always thought you had a thing for John," I say."John is like my
The Imperial Wolf Kate
Kate POVTime seems to stop for no one. Belle is growing so fast. She is a month old today. Erick is the best father to her and helps me with her so much. I knew he would be after the way I watch him care for Austin. He never told me what happened when he went to look for Alexander and Macon. That thought of my father, even though we are not close, being out there somewhere hurts my soul. I want to find him. I want him to meet baby Belle and know her.Nothing that happened in the past was anyone's fault, not even his. The past is the past, and I choose to leave it there. I will never step on the spiritual plane again or try to mind-link with the wolves. I still feel a deep connection to nature, just like all imperial wolves, but I try to keep my knowledge and source of power to a minimum.Belle is extraordinary. She already has her fangs. I have to supplement her feedings with deer blood, or she will bite whoever is holding her. I do not want the wolves to be afraid of her. This is th

Kate PovThe floor creaks in the darkness of my infant's room, and then I look up to see him. "Father," I say softly."YESSSS," Alexander hisses at me. I am frightened but relieved to see my father."Where have you been?" I ask him. I have needed him and he has been missing."Hiding from your brother. You have to take her and hide from Isabella. You have to keep her safe, Kate. Go, do not tell Erick, just take her and hide her. He will understand. I will explain everything to him. Isabella and the Omega are planning to kill her. Take your child and GO!" Alexander says to me.“Erick will not understand. He will be furious with me if I leave with her,” I say softly.“You have to go, Kate! GO! Baby Belle is the most important thing in all of this. Her life has to be protected,” Alexander screams at me.I grab a few things for baby Belle. I put her things into a bag. I reach into baby Belle’s crib and pick her up gently. I run for the window. I hold my baby close to me. I look back at my

Cassie POVI drive all night to take Austin to see Erick and Kate. I am not happy about this, but John made it clear if I want to keep Austin, I had better bring Austin to see Erick. He assured me that Kate is doing good and not a threat to Austin or myself. John also told me Erick would not give me any problems about leaving with Austin after the visit.
