The next morning, I threw on a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt and walked downstairs. I poured a cup of coffee for myself, went outside, and sat on the deck to just ease into my day. I do love mornings. Especially mornings when I can just relax into my day. I was thinking of all the unpacking that needs to be done when a wolf family walked up to me. I said, "Look at you guys! Your cubs have grown so much since we've been gone!" I held my hand out to them, and the male nudged my hand to the top of his head. I petted his fur, and said, "You know I'm wolf too, don't you?" Then the female and cubs approached. I sat on the floor of the deck and the cubs walked up to me. They were climbing all over me and trying to lick my face when they heard a noise. Aidinth was at the door, laughing at me being mauled by a pack of wolf cubs. I said, "He's good, guys. It's okay."
I motioned for Aidinth to come out and they all stopped for just a minute, until he sat in a chair with a cup
If you like this chapter, please leave a gem. I would also love to read your comments.
I really didn't want to get them in trouble this early. I wanted to give them a chance to show me who they really are; good or bad, it can deal with it. I also can't lie to these guys. I'm horrible at it. So, I replied, "They killed a deer on our land. I heard the gunshot, and we went to investigate. They said they were actually looking for a wolf that killed one of their cows. They said they didn't know this land was occupied now." The wolf said, "He knew. We told him a while back. He asked about it specifically. He also knows that this is not deer season. Can you show us the spot you found them?" Aidinth said, "Sure can." We led them to where we found them, and the Game Commissioners could see what had taken place. I said, "I'm not so sure that I believe the whole wolf story, but there is a family of wolves, that I have become quite close to, and I really don't want them hurt. One of their cubs is a white wolf. I talked the mates into rolling the pup around in dirt a few t
After locking the doors, Aidinth carried me, bridal style, all the way to our bedroom. We were just about to get in the shower, when I heard a wolf howl, very close to our house. I said, "I can't ignore this. I think they need us." I ran downstairs and saw the entire wolf family at the door. I went to the garage and opened it. The wolf family ran inside, and I shut the door. I checked them all out, and the female's leg has been shot. "Aidinth," I yelled, "Call Layla! We need a healer." I petted her gently and said, "Poor momma, you just can't catch a break!" Aidinth ran into the garage, and I said, "The hunters started early. Momma here has been shot." He brought out a couple of old blankets that we had used for moving and laid them on the floor. I said, "Would you mind staying here for a minute while I get them some food and water? This is their normal feeding time." Aidinth said, "I also called Adrien, so everyone will be here soon." I said, "Thank you. I'm sorry for the cock-bloc
I immediately started to panic, not only for the wolves, but for my unborn children. I also knew that Aidinth would feel my panic. I heard Kina tell me, “I have already told Aidinth. Just hang tight. He will be here in a minute.” Then I heard Saige tell me, “I have already told Adrien’s wolf too. He will be here soon also.” I looked at the man in front of me and said, “What are you doing on our land and why are you hunting wolves to begin with? They’re endangered. You shouldn’t be hunting them to begin with. Your friends already learned that lesson last night.” He smiled at me, “I am well aware. That’s why I’m here. You are going to call the wardens off of us, or you will suffer the consequences.” I could smell he was human, so I knew he had no idea what we are. I laughed, “And what consequences would those be?” He sneered, “This isn’t the first house that has been burned down on this land.” Just then, Aidinth stepped onto the deck and said, “Babe, is everything okay here?”
When Koda and Layla left, we walked them outside and Layla introduced us to the two angels who would be watching over our house. Kemuel and Ramiel are both very handsome angels, and they look like fierce warriors. I’m glad to have them guarding the house. Now I don’t have to sleep with one eye open. We greeted the new guards, showed them the refrigerator, in the garage, with some snacks and drinks in it, and bid them a good night. When Aidinth and I walked into the house, I yawned, “It’s been a long day. We literally did nothing all day and feel like I’ve run a marathon.” Aidinth laughed at me, “You did more than me and I’m exhausted too. I think we just didn’t get enough sleep last night. We should try to sleep late tomorrow.” I laughed, “That won’t happen for me. I would literally, have to stay up until four am to sleep until noon. That’s just the way I am. Once I’ve slept eight hours, I’m up.” Aidinth sighed, “We will have to work on that. Won’t we?” I giggled, “Sou
When Aidinth and I got to the paint store, I had several colors of paint that I needed mixed, so we told the clerk what we wanted, and I started looking at supplies. I grabbed all the brushes I would need, a few drop cloths, and a small roller. I grabbed a few other supplies, and the employee showed each color to me, and I nodded with each one. “Perfect,” I said as I put the rest of our supplies on the counter. I was getting excited about starting the painting when my phone chimed. I pulled it out of my back pocket and read the text. The text is from Adrien. He says the white wolf may be in a bit of trouble. I whisper in Aidinth’s ear the white wolf may be in trouble. We need to hurry, or I can shift and be there quickly. He shook his head, “Please don’t shift with the threat of poachers still around.” I said, “Okay, but we should hurry.” Aidinth paid for everything, and we hurried back to the house, where the wolf family was waiting for me. Saige said, “
As Aidinth and I ate dinner, I was trying to decide what to cook for dinner tomorrow. Aidinth laughed, “Love, you need to get out of your own head. Anything you make will be amazing.” I asked, “What are some of their favorite dishes?” He replied, “They like spicy food.” I said, “I know! I can make Jambalaya! It has a lot of spice.” He laughed at me, “You are so amazing. I don’t know how you come up with your ideas, but I’m glad you do.” I just sat at the table smiling, when I heard another howl. Saige said, “The wolf family just wants to stay in the garage tonight.” I said, “Ask them if they’ve eaten.” She said, “They have eaten. “ I got up from the table and told Aidinth, “The wolves would like to sleep in our garage again. They have already eaten.” Aidinth smiled, “I do love that Saige can talk to them.” I nodded in agreement as I walked out to open the garage door just enough for them to get in. As soon as the door was shut, there was a loud, “BANG,” from outside. I ran i
After Selene left, I started the pot of Jambalaya and let it simmer for most of the day. I washed our laundry and did regular household chores for the rest of the day. It felt nice to be able to do these things. I was smiling and listening to music as I worked. While I was mopping the floor, I started dancing. I kept dancing around the house until I felt something up against my back. I was suddenly lifted and carried upstairs. When we got there, I laughed as I took my earbuds out of my ears. I laughed, “Can I help you?” Aidinth’s eyes were pure gold as he smiled, “Watching you dance has me so turned on, I can not ignore it.” I smirked, “Oops.” He chuckled, “You little minx. Let me show you what happens when you tease us by shaking that beautiful ass at us.” He picked me up and put me on the bed. He ripped all of my clothes off of me and skipped over all the teasing. He immediately buried his face between my thighs. He started licking my core and I immediately became a
“Well, so far, the babies are looking great,” Dr. Harper says as she does the ultrasound, “They are growing nicely, and their heart rates are normal. It won’t be long before we can find out what the sex of the babies are. Do you want to know?” I nodded, “I think so. I would like to be able to have names picked out.” She smiled, “I understand. I need to start seeing you twice a month. I just want to make sure everything is going well.” I nodded, “I understand. I will get in here every two weeks.” She smiled, “Perfect. I will let you get dressed, and we can talk some more.” She left the room and I got dressed. Aidinth wasn’t able to come to this appointment, because his dad had something urgent that needed to be done. I can’t help but worry about what it is, but I’ve been trying to reduce my stress lately, so I try to just push it to the back of my mind. Dr. Harper comes back in and says, “I’m really happy that you are working on your stress levels. I know it’s not easy for yo
What a ride we have had in these last ten years. Aidinth and I are still blissfully happy with each other, and our kids are amazing. We are still being called to areas around the world to host anti-poaching campaigns. My favorites have been to China, to protect the pandas, and to Africa to protect the wild cats. I fell in love with the wild versions of these animals. The werebears and werecats have been trying to protect themselves as well as the full blood version with a fierceness that I have not seen anywhere else. Mainly because they were getting desperate. Aidinth and I went there and ended up calling Luna Abby in for reinforcements. The poachers for these animals are willing to kill and die for the money they expect to receive for the parts they keep of these animals. It’s crazy and stupid. Money should never be the driving force behind what we do. These poachers do not get it though. We had a lot of poachers locked up in those areas. They won’t be getting out any time soon ei
Six weeks later, we are at home, and I am downright miserable. I am waddling everywhere I go, and Aidinth, somehow, still thinks I'm cute. Today, we have company. Both of my brothers came up to visit and brought Sergio and his wife with them. We have been having a blast. Luna Abby came up yesterday with Alpha Damien and told us that the anti-poaching event in Alaska went great. So far, they have locked up one hundred eighty poachers. They think some may have chosen to get out of poaching altogether. We were all absolutely thrilled at that news. Today, Adrien and Julien came over to meet Sergio, Zaiden, and Allen. They all went on a walk around the woods, and we visited while Luna Abby and I cooked dinner. In the middle of cooking dinner, I felt a warm liquid rush down my legs. I whispered to Luna Abby, "I think my water just broke." She looked at my feet and said, I think so too. She smiled, "Let's get the doctor. Okay?" I nodded and she grabbed my phone. I logged in and she
Saturday morning, I woke up and jumped out of bed. I am so excited about this Pow Wow. I love them so much! Aidinth has never been to one, so he has no idea what to expect. I am super excited, so as soon as I’m done in the shower, I get dressed and walk downstairs. I decide that I want to make Indian frybread, after I finish making breakfast, to set the mood for the Pow Wow. As Aidinth and I are eating breakfast, Luna Abby calls to tell me they are in the building and there must be five thousand people there. I was floored. She said that King Uther made it, along with a few of his warriors, and Gryphon plans on showing up with a unicorn and Pegasus. I chuckled, “Be on the lookout for Sid. You know how he likes to make an entrance.” Luna Abby laughed, “Oh yes he does.” We finished talking about the arrangements, and the plan for the presentation, then we ended the call because she had people approaching her to introduce themselves. I smiled, knowing the event is in good hands
As we sat on the couch eating snacks and laughing at movies, I couldn’t help but wonder what is happening with Luna Abby. I’m sure she is still flying or driving, but it’s eating at me. Aidinth pauses the movie and smiles at me, “You can’t get out of Princess mode, can you?” I shrug my shoulders, “I’m just wondering where they are. That’s all. I know Luna Abby will keep me informed. She’s amazing at that. It just bugs me.” He pulled me close to him, “Do you need to go bake something?” I laughed, “You know me so well. I may need to do that. Let’s finish watching this movie, then I will think about it.” That is when my phone rang. I answered on the first ring without even looking to see who is calling, “Hello?” To my relief, it was Luna Abby, “Hey Princess Chloe, I have Alpha Damien, Gideon Begay, his mate Willow Begay, his brother and second in command, Denali Begay, and his mate, Isla Begay.” I put the phone on speaker and said, “Hello everyone, I am Princess Chloe Bergeron
Aidinth and I sat on the couch, napping, laughing, and watching TV for the rest of the day. Once in a while, I would step outside to check on the wolves. It is so good to see their pups thriving. It feels good to know that I had something to do with that. The white pup has learned to camouflage himself on his own now. The only time he doesn’t is when he is going in our garage for the night. He knows that he is safe in there. I woke up this morning seeing much more sunlight than I am used to seeing. I looked around and realized I’m still on the couch! Did Aidinth leave me down here? I started to get up and found that an arm had a vice-like grip on me. I’m sure it’s just to keep me from falling off, but I really need to pee. I tapped his arm, and he instinctively loosened his hold, without waking up. I walked upstairs to our room, and did my business, then took my shower. I dried myself off and walked to the closet. I put on a pair of maternity leggings and a huge t shirt, bec
Wow. The last three months have been a whirlwind. It has been three months since the event in Louisiana, and it was a major success. The local humans have joined the game wardens in keeping an eye out for poachers. Sergio has discovered that it’s mostly people who come in from out of state that are poaching. The locals who were poaching got caught very quickly after the event. Their own family or friends turned them in. It was nuts for them for a little while, but things have settled down a lot for them. Right now, I’m sitting with Aidinth at the doctor’s office, waiting for my doctor to come in the room. As she enters, she smiles, “So, would you like to find out what you’re having today?” I smiled, “I would love to know, so we can prepare.” She brought the ultrasound machine in, but it didn’t look like the same one she usually uses. I asked, “What is different about that machine?” She explained, “This is a high-definition ultrasound. If we can get them in the right position
When we got to the airport, Aidinth watched the guys unload the car with wide eyes, “Was there anything left in the store?” I laughed, “I couldn’t help it! They had all my favorite clothes in every size that I’m going to need.” He laughed as he wrapped his arms around me, “It’s fine, my love. I know you need them.” Then he put his hands on my belly, “They did seem to triple in size overnight.” I nodded, “I know.” We got on the plane, and I sat down. I took a deep breath and suddenly felt a little flutter in my stomach. I put my hand on it, and it happened again. This time, I could feel it from the outside too. I must have had a weird look on my face, because Aidinth asked, “Are you okay?” I smiled, “More than okay.” I motioned for him to sit down, and he did. I took his hand and put it over the spot where the baby was moving. His eyes glistened with unshed tears, “That is the coolest thing ever. That’s my child in there.” I nodded and he kissed me tenderly, then he said, “Things are
As we made it to town, I started noticing kids just walking around town. I asked Queen Judia, "What's going on with the kids? Why are they just walking around?" She shrugged her shoulders, "I really don't think they have much to do. They are in town, because it's more boring at home, and there is no school today." I asked, "Do you have a fairly large area that I can use to give them something to do?" She said, "We have a park, but it's not that big. It's mainly for the little ones. But it is big enough to add on to it." I smiled, "Why don't we go over there first. Seeing these kids like this is really bugging me." Queen Judia laughed, "Let's go." When we got to the park, I agreed that this was mainly for little kids. I smiled, "Let's give the bigger kids something to do." I suggested, "First, how about an obstacle course?" The kids gathered around us, and I greeted them all, "Hey guys! I'm about to improve your park, so there is something for you all to do. First, how
When we got back to King Mateo’s castle, we ate a late dinner, and sat outside in lounge chairs by the water and just enjoyed each other’s company. We had been talking and laughing until I heard a hiss, and a ball was thrown into my lap. I laughed as King Mateo shook his head, “Chloe, you have spoiled him beyond belief.” I laughed at Hugo, “Youaren’tspoiled, are you, Hugo? You just love me.” Hugo nodded his head and made a hissing sound that sounded like a laugh. Everyone laughed at what he did. Queen Judia laughed, “Chloe, you make him do things that I have never seen him do.” I laughed, “That’snothing. Watch this.” Then I looked at Hugo, “Can I hug you, Hugo?” He nodded his head and I levitated him to my eye level. I was petting his face, and said, “I need a hug. Is that okay?” He nodded and I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him. Aidinth chuckled, “I never thought I would be jealous of an alligator.” I put Hugo down and tossed the ball f
