~Tyler’s Point of View~ We make all the introductions and go through all the motions of small talk, even having dinner. Grace has a cook like I do, but with all these kids I’d say it's more for their sanity than anything. Three of them had to eat different things from what we did, and I assume it's just easier than a fight. Because I was that picky kid, and thankfully the staff were instructed to do as I said, even before I was in kindergarten. “I called in the babysitter for the night, she’ll get the kids to bed so we can talk. If you have a million questions, throw ‘em at me! I wish I could have had someone to ask outside of these two. Though now I’m actually close with my father’s mistress who is a shifter, but that’s another story,” Grace says, as we move into the family room. I raise my eyebrow at her omission. I love how open and friendly they all are, and it’s not fake. It’s not forced. They’re not afraid to show me that no matter how much is in your bank account, everybod
~Winnie’s Point of View~ “Hi,” I whisper, as I open my eyes to see Tyler’s green ones staring at me. Pure happiness fills me and Hailey is so content she’s still sleeping away. The feeling of his warm skin under mine is all I want forever. He is mine, and I am his. “Hi beautiful,” he says, rubbing my back. I can hear the pups already awake, I can feel the connections of my brothers’ animals, they’re up too. But this moment is so perfect I can’t let it end. “This must be what Christmas morning feels like to a human child,” I whisper, as he grins. “This Christmas will definitely be…” he trails off as his face changes. I look at him in confusion. “I… I completely spaced on using a condom last night,” he whispers. My eyes grow wide, realizing the gravity of his words. I hadn’t noticed either, I was so damn excited. Is he mad? “Ohh, uhm, well my fertile time isn’t until next week but…” I say, as Hailey wakes up like a drunken sailor. *Hi ho! Morning,* she chirps. He gives a dry l
~Tyler’s Point of View~ ~One Month Later~ I watch my beautiful bride from across the room and just fall more in love with her with each passing minute. She couldn’t be more perfect, more than I deserve… But I try not to dwell on that. It was a damn shame I didn’t trust any of my family enough to even bother telling them about asking to marry her, and then actually marrying her. We’d made a statement on social media that our wedding would be in a few months but we jumped the gun and married right in Grace’s backyard just a week after our engagement. It was perfect. Vic was my best man and Grace was her maid of honor. Scotch was the ring bearer and Winnie gave her a beautiful bow to signify marrying her too. Both of her brothers gave her away, she claimed that was what she wanted. I don’t know much about her dad, even now though he was there. In the span of a month I found the girl of my dreams, her wolf, and now… she’s having our baby. She got pregnant likely from the weekend we g
~Winnie’s Point of View~ ~One Year Later~ “I’m so nervous I should have worn an adult diaper! Ohh, having so many babies has not been kind to me,” Grace whispers as our limo pulls up to the premier. We all absolutely burst out laughing, and I go on so bad I’m afraid of crying and ruining my make-up. Grace had taken a small, non-speaking role in the film but also refused to be in the credits. She wore a wig and definitely looked different, but someone will notice. All of her children had non-credited roles too. I rub my little baby bump and Tyler does too. Our little guy Hawley is at home with all of his cousins, but his twin sisters get to come along for the big night. I can’t believe I’m pregnant again but I couldn’t be more excited. When I see my name next to Ty’s in big lights, my stomach flips. Finch and Jack both reach for me, and pull me so hard I fall out of the seat. “We’re so damn proud of you,” they both say, at the same time. I giggle and rub their backs. *Don’t cry
~Daphne’s Point of View~“It was an honest mistake. Don’t fire me please, you know how much I need this job,” I whined, pathetically.The look on my manager’s face told me all I needed to know. I was already as good as shit canned. One too many mistakes this month, most of which legitimately weren’t my fault but all ended up looking that way. It seemed like I was constantly defending myself and it seemed like that was all anyone saw.“Get your stuff Daph. You can get your check for this week on Friday, I’ll pay you for the rest of today,” Brandon said, sticking up his nose and walking away.My hand pulled back on its own, nearly ready to punch his lights out. I could hardly stand to add assault to my current predicament. I glanced at the clock on the wall and saw there were only 45 minutes left in my shift. How freakin’ generous of him. I was certain he knew already he’d fire me today, he was just waiting until I did tonight’s work.I sighed and took off my smock, dropping it on the f
~Daphne’s Point of View~I gaped at the building and fished out my phone again to look at the map. I had five missed calls and voicemails. All from the same number. Hmm, that cop I bet. Oh well, he can wait. My heart couldn’t handle what happened to Greta, but the fact was that she wasn’t in need of a home anymore and I was, desperately. I blew out a hard breath, it was already nearing dinner time and I just wanted a bed. Opening the door, a light smell of something cinnamon wafted in my nose and it was so damn nice. Like walking into a house where someone’s baking. It warmed me down to my bones.The walls were a nice cream color with little splashes of beige and light yellows. You’d think it was a bit institutional but they pulled it off so well. The lights were soft, and the furniture looked big and comfy. Is this like a rich people’s shelter?If it is, I sure as hell hope I can stay. I’d even take the damn waiting room couch right now, I was that tired.“Well hello,” a woman’s vo
~Daphne’s Point of View~“Holy cow,” I gasped, covering my mouth as the helicopter began its descent.“We have people to take your bags, you ladies can just hop off and a guide will meet you,” the pilot said.I heard him speaking but my heart thudding in my chest was all consuming. The water below was nearly clear and I could already see fish swimming. My eyes moved to the mountains in the distance, the forest. There was a bit of everything here. It was absolutely breathtaking. Out of a story book. There were three other women with me, they were Omegas as well. It took a week of Evelyn’s hard convincing and my lack of literally any other options to convince me to do this. Two other Omegas, Phoebe and Janet came in from somewhere in Canada a couple days ago and last night Maggie from Florida. They were all younger than me, perhaps far more impressionable. Basically all ready to be baby makers. That part, I wasn’t sold on.All of the ladies were a bit bigger, like me. Curvy or just pud
~Vance’s Point of View~My tiger paced in my head, fuming. We had found and tracked the Omega, she should be ours. My heart raced just thinking about her luscious body.But technically, Barrett put his hands on her first. He was the one who pulled her from the river and that fact made me absolutely sick. Had I gotten to her first, won her … it would mean everything. To me, to my brothers and our entire family.She was so damn lucky to have only basic cuts and scrapes, she could have died. What the hell was she thinking?The fact that there were four Omegas today, four, was unreal. My brothers and I knew for sure we would get one, we had to really due to an ultimatum laid down by our parents. The time for playing around and waiting for the perfect female for us was over.But when my tiger smelled her, no other would do. She was IT. THE ONE. The one we’d been waiting for, and I had to have her. Once I laid eyes on her, I knew she was mine. There would be no chasing after another. I imme

~Winnie’s Point of View~ I’ve never had very vivid dreams but last night it was as if Hailey was personally controlling everything. Dreams of pups, running and playing. They have Tyler’s green eyes and my thick brown hair. They’re a bit mischievous like Finch and I adore it. But does Tyler even want kids? Human males his age are not even remotely thinking about families, settling down. He’s completely career obsessed. How can I fit into that world let alone with a family? Not to mention he’s a whole world away from where I live. Where I need to be to feel whole and at ease. Even Atlanta is half a country away. I pop my eyes open to find I’m alone, and I’d be lying if I didn’t admit it stings. But I remember him from yesterday morning and realize he’s probably working out. The bedside clock shows it’s just past 9am. His bed is impossibly soft, the sheets are silk against my skin. Who knows, maybe they are actual silk. Whatever they are, they’re him. His musk and his warmth still wr
~Tyler’s Point of View~ “Let’s move in the house,” I whisper, finally pulling away to catch my breath. My dick is literally inches from thrusting inside her, it’s suddenly all I can think about. There’s never been a time, even my first time when I was fourteen that I’ve not assumed a woman is just using me. They always want something, always. There hasn’t been a female who hasn’t asked me for money, for gifts, for help with their career. They want a picture with me to post online. Winnie obviously doesn’t need money, that’s a huge plus. She really doesn’t need to work or need a career. So what’s her angle? We both get out of the pool naked, and I certainly don’t miss the color in her cheeks when her eyes scan my body. I hate to admit I’ve seen shifter porn but at this point, who hasn’t? Those guys are not only ripped but they’ve practically got elephant trunks that put human porn stars to shame. There’s no way she couldn’t get one with the snap of her fingers. I know my dick is mor
~Winnie’s Point of View~ *Hmm, so good. I mean maybe not as tender as I’m used to…* Hailey moans, tearing apart a raccoon. I hear footsteps in the woods, and the sound of a dog trotting. *He’s looking for us, sooo cuuuute! He likes us,* Hailey coos, as she pulls another piece of meat. I swoon just thinking about it. I shouldn’t have, but when I went upstairs to get undressed I searched online whether or not he has a girlfriend. Basically … no. But there were hundreds of pictures of him with women. “Hollywood’s serial bachelor.” Apparently there was also a film he did a few years ago where he played a gay male in the army and he kissed men and had sex scenes. So yeah, there’s a definite rumor mill about whether or not he’s in the closet. Is that something I can just ask him? *Why not! We deserve to know,* Hailey says, matter of fact. In the scene we did today, we should have kissed. We were literally right there, lost in each other’s eyes and in the moment. Inches apart. Then e
~Tyler’s Point of View~ “We killed it! Killed it! Guaranteed Oscar performance,” I rave, though I could give a shit about the awards. Suddenly I’m filled with the need to make this happen for Winnie as much as I want it for my career. Not to mention I’m desperate to see what they offer me to sign on. This role is exactly what I need to be taken seriously as an actor. Hawley is strong but sensitive and caring. He’s a beast in bed but also in the wild, determined to prove he’s just as much of a bad ass as any hybrid. That’s already how I feel looking at Winnie. I’m suddenly more overprotective of her than I’ve ever felt over anyone. I hear the low growl of her stomach and decide I’m not ready to go home. We need to celebrate. The five people who were in the room as we filled it with our magic, our hot and intense chemistry were absolutely fucking blown away. Audition my ass! That’s how you fucking do it! Be the first one in, kill it and get the roles on the spot. Tyler Hudson auditi
~Winnie’s Point of View~ “No I can’t talk to your dog,” I laugh, my belly practically hurting with the very idea. Though I had to wonder if a telepathic fairy could pick up on emotions or perhaps thoughts. I’ll tuck that away. He doesn’t look convinced by my response and his face looks beyond sexy. Then again, I’ve been around this backyard with him all night and there hasn’t been a single second I haven’t wanted to jump his bones. Goddess help me. I already had promised that later this week I’d take him to Atlanta to meet Grace. I can’t even begin to imagine how incredibly lonely he must have felt all these years not knowing there are others like him in the world. I feel beyond blessed and lucky to have had such a close family. To have older brothers that are always there for me and have always been there to teach me any and everything. Until they weren’t. The day they left was devastating to me and while I do have other siblings they’re not Jack and Finch. I yawn and stretch
