A wolf comes to stay.

“Oh Aida!” Blake walks into Lance’s bedroom finding me crying into his bedsheets. Clearly she has been sent up to check on me.

As soon as we came back from the hospital I needed some space, some alone time.

“He’s going to hate me!” I sob out.

“He’s not going to hate you.” She sighs.

“Blake, I am pregnant with his babies and now have Rory’s blood in my system.”

“Babies?” She gasps.

“Oh yes…didn’t you know the update?” I sit up too abruptly, making my own head spin.

“It turns out I’m pregnant with twins!” I moan, falling back onto the bed and covering my face up with the bed cover.

“My training is officially over!” I sigh from under the bed cover.

“It’s not, you just won’t be able to spar for a while.” She softly takes the covers back.

“In werewolf society they let females train in skin form still…”

“But we are Lycan society….” She muses.

“Don’t I know it!”

“Aida, you’re freaking out. You just need some time to let the shock settle down.”

“Shock? Blake

    News from the Sagar Pack. “Aida!” Emmett tuts at me as Brennan takes the tray and places it on the coffee table. Lorrel soon enters and tuts Brennan in return. “So Trey, what is it that you need to tell Aida?” Ricardo bluntly asks, getting straight to facts as he remains seated in the single armchair. “There have been complications at the Sagar pack.” Trey responds to the Lycan King. “Complications? How so?” Ricardo answers for me as my eyes stay fixed on Trey. “It would seem the pack are unhappy with how Aida has been treated and how the Luna has mothered a child.” Trey responds trying to keep his words politically correct. “The pack are only sorry for how she was treated now that she holds favour with the lycan royal family.” Lorrel responds. “You are probably right….” Trey starts to reply but I cut him off. “I may no longer be a member of that pack but I wouldn’t ever wish them harm.” This pack was my family, toxic or not. I would never betray them. “It would also seem tha

    A midnight reunion. As soon as my lips touch Lance’s, an explosive sensation of tingles erupt all over my mouth. He matches my passionate kiss and quite quickly I lose control, surrendering to his lead. He kisses me, like I was his lifeline. Like I was the oxygen he needed to breathe in. He wasn’t waiting around, this wasn’t about taking our time. This was about our bodies needing to be paired again. Our wolves needing to also bond. He flips me onto my back and rips my pyjamas shorts and panties from under me. “Lance!” My voice huskily shrieks out. Next he pushes my vest top up, exposing my tummy and freeing my breasts. I tried to pull my top back down but he growls at my attempts to cover up. I was very conscious that my secret might soon be evident from the curve of my belly. “You are beautiful.” He says as he licks his tongue from my belly button up to my throat. The sensation making me scream out in delight. He positions himself at my lower core. There is no need to work m

    Truth bombs. I’m not sure what comes over me. I know Lance would never hurt me but my pregnant body was trying to protect his young. I take a side step away from him which doesn’t go unnoticed by him or the others. He frowns at my movement before pinching the bridge of his nose out of frustration. He takes a moment to calm himself down. But I know, as does everybody else sat on that table, things were only going to get more heated. “After you left the Mulder pack with Axel to follow Lynx to talk to his rebel group…I found out that a girl in the Mulder pack was the daughter of Saskia. I visited the Sagar pack that night to…..”If I carry on any further, he is going to know what my mother did. The sacrifice she made. I look to Ricardo, as my breathing starts to become heavy. Ricardo understands why I am struggling to talk. “Aida arrived at her family pack to defend the child. Unfortunately things turned sour and Aida rejected the pack…” Ricardo continues on my behalf. “I don’t under

    A check up. Felicity is soon brought to the cells, already crying with red blotchy eyes. Four royal guards position themselves around her, keeping her boxed in. I step out of the way so that they can walk her into the cell next to Nadine‘s. But they don’t stop. They continue to the basement door. Were they seriously going to torture her? Lance leads the way, gesturing for me to follow. I almost reach the door behind him when Ricardo and Brennan cut in front of me, blocking both Lance and the door off from me. “What are you both doing? I’m happy for Aida to join us!” Lance says perplexed by their behaviour. “Actually, I think it best Aida sits this one out…don’t you Aida?” Ricardo sternly looks at me. He was right, I had to start being more mindful of putting myself in dangerous situations. “I will come and find you afterwards!” Brennan promises, placing a calming hand on my shoulder. I see Lance frown, confused by his brother’s and cousin’s even more protective behaviour toward

    Seeing into his soul. Once the feisty lycans had finished their family argument, I heard them all return to their rooms to get cleaned and changed, before joining me. Axel was now back at the palace as he was before when recovering from being shot. He literally walked back to the training base and swiftly returned with a bag, demanding that he stayed. When Lorrel tried to argue the point, he literally pointed a finger at me, Brennan and Ricardo saying something wasn’t right, and he was determined to find out. He even used the phrase, something smells fishy. Mav on hearing about the family fighting again, arrived a few minutes ago with Colette and Rayna, in his attempts to calm another storm. No one would fight around a baby. Lance wasn’t talking to me, he literally planted a kiss on my lips and stormed out of the palace with Mav to go for a run. It was now dinner time and Lance and Mav still were not back. Perhaps they had gone to check on Felicity in the cells. I wanted to see

    A sprig of lavender. Once again Lorrel was clearly a dab hand at sorting out this kitchen after a lycan family bust up. You would never know that Lycan wolves were in here earlier trying to bite one another. She left a plate of food in the oven for me and a note in the fridge for a cold bottle of orange juice. Brennan had told us I needed to increase my iron level and the only way to absorb iron through food was to drink vitamin c enriched drinks or have an orange directly after eating. I was feeling cheeky, so I placed the plate on a tray and took it into the sitting room. I turned on the television and found some reruns of the hospital drama I liked when staying at the Mulder pack all those months ago. Lorrel had plated me up a sausage casserole and apple pie and custard for dessert. She really was amazing. With my tummy and the babies now happy, I decide to finish the current episode I am on. I lay back, letting my tummy rest from all that food. I must have dozed off because

    The ultimate sacrifice. “AIDA?” I can hear a voice coming towards me. My vision was starting to blur from the smoke inhalation. “Here, I’m in here…” I start to bang on the table, hoping whoever it was would hear my call. My ears couldn’t identify the person reaching me, my ears seem to have become tone deaf temporarily from the blast. For all I know it could be a female shouting for me. I open my eyes and take in the surroundings. Pockets of fires were burning around me but could easily be contained once help arrived. I look up to see the fireball had now disappeared and left black burning smoke in its wake. The hot smoke now burning through the floorboards. Even though there wasn’t any large fires in the kitchen, I couldn’t account for the top floors or even my exit. It could be the hallway was blocked with smoke and I’d have to somehow break out through the kitchen into the small family courtyard. The only problem with that was it was so secure…I wouldn’t be able to climb the hi

    Mind fog.I’m not really sure where I am. I wake up to the sound of beeping and the sound of my heartbeat. Since when did I have two heartbeats? I follow the noises until the realisation hits me, these are the strong heart beats of my babies. As I gain more consciousness, I wish I hadn’t. My body aches. My lungs, my leg and my eyes all burn in their own way. I groan as I open my eyes. “Aida?” Brennan comes close and stands over me. “What happened?” “You don’t remember?” He looks at me with a frown. “Remember what?” My brain was foggy, I couldn’t keep a simple thought or memory at the forefront of my mind. The painful dull ache taking preference over any memory. I slowly sit up, with help from Brennan and see Axel asleep in a hospital chair. I look down to see my tummy is wired up to the machine, Brennan wanting to keep a close watch on the babies. I try to talk but my throat is sore. I swallow which adds a little lubrication. “What happened?” My brain fog still wasn’t clearin

    A pledge. Lance POVAida had been extremely quiet on the drive back home. After packing we said our goodbyes and wished Trey good luck for his training with Giovanni. “Are you okay?” I place my hand on her thigh, as I check the rear view mirror. Both babies were sound asleep in their car seats and I was leading the security convoy back home. Brennan insisted on returning sooner than planned with us, he wanted to give Aida a full check up. He quietly said to me that judging by the twin’s early arrival we need to consider March onwards for her delivery. “I’m just a little shocked that’s all.” “You’re putting your block up, I can’t feel you. Aren’t you excited?”“Yes of course, of course I am. I just…I just wanted to do the training…to help keep them safe.” She looks out of her side window, not letting me look at the emotions on her face. “Angel, you don’t need to train to keep them safe. I have an army of warriors to keep them safe, I will keep you all safe.” …..“Aida would you

    Boxing DayChristmas was everything and more. We didn’t buy Lex and Leona much because..well they are babies and didn’t actually know it was Christmas. The day was more for us and I thoroughly enjoyed making those memories as a family. Blake’s and Trey’s ceremony was beautiful and I can see why people waited for a special marking. But Lance had waited for so long to mark me that I didn’t regret our love story for one moment. Our wedding would be our celebration in front of our family and friends and the ceremony got me excited to start planning when I returned from training with Giovanni. I would definitely ask Blake to help with the planning. Their ceremony was under the winter night’s sky with the stars acting as twinkling fairy lights against the strong moon’s glow. She had been growing her hair out for the occasion and instead of the pixie cut when I first met her, she had managed to grow it out into a long bob, which she styled wavy with winter berries styled in a number of r

    Christmas with the family. It was now December, Christmas Eve to be precise, and I was so excited to not only experience Lex’s and Leona’s first Christmas but to start training with Giovanni on Boxing Day. I had weaned Lex and Leona completely off me and they were now on solids and cow’s milk. Colette couldn’t believe their development. I knew shifter children developed quicker than human babies, but Colette found it hard to get her head around it. In fact, Lex was almost a similar size to Rayna even though he was 5 months younger than her. Colette was heavily pregnant and her mood swings were increasing. She was quite adamant that she didn’t want to know the baby’s gender this time around and was quite blunt to Mav about it. They had moved back to their house near the Mulder pack, she wanted her space and I understood, she was uncomfortable nesting in someone else’s home. I still saw her regularly and Mav every day. We had even babysat Rayna a couple of times so Colette could get

    Saying goodbye. “Trust the Mulder Alpha, he holds the second of three!” Fern’s voice kept ringing in my ears. Is that what she meant, that Rory’s dagger was similar to the dagger Fiona used in the battle. Would it have killed me? It didn’t kill Fern, but is that because she has tied herself to Leona and Lex? It certainly was a powerful weapon. I could feel its power as soon as it cut my palm. With every cut it took longer to heal. I could feel a slight tingle in the wound, as I clasp it open and shut repeatedly. “Still healing?” Lance’s voice comes from the office door, his body engulfing the door frame as he lent up against it. “It’s taking longer this time.” I say as I trace my finger across the wound, even with Lance’s alpha saliva it wasn’t quite there yet. “Want me to re-lick it?” He smirks seductively as he walks into the office and closes the door behind him. “Well…if you’re offering.” I smile back at him before taking on a more serious tone. “I think Rory’s dagger migh

    Setting out the terms. I was woken up by a few things. Something hard poking me from behind, Lance also snoring behind me…so that explained the something hard poking me from behind. I also woke up hot and sweaty, which hasn’t happened to me in a long time. I don’t remember dreaming last night, maybe it was a hot night. It was August after all and the summer heat was still clinging on before the autumnal wind change in a few week’s time. Lex was stirring whether he also added to my early awakening or his stirring was a result of my awakening…goddess knows. I throw on my nude leggings and a vest top before taking Lex down with me before he wakes up his daddy and sister to change him and give him some milk. I’m not even sure what the time was but the morning still had a slight darkness to it which for summer would tell me is was between 4am and 5am. The moon was just starting her transition of handing over the light shift to the sun. Lex and I settle down on the sofa once he has b

    A chosen family. It was now dinner time and Rory had returned to the royal home having watched some trainees down at the training base. I know Rowan is keen to train and I wonder, when of age, if Rory will agree to enlist him. He hasn’t admitted it but I know he is impressed with Rafe’s training, especially as he has been heading up the Mulder pack security function recently. I had offered to make dinner tonight, even with Axel’s playful rude comments about my cooking. He said if there was a French fry in sight, he would order a takeaway in. Okay so that did spoil my initial plan but then I offered spaghetti bolognaise, garlic bread and salad for everyone and their mouths were already drooling from the mere prospect. There was fifteen of us sitting around the table, including my cutie Rayna. She was so proud to be sat in a high chair and eating the same dinner as the grown ups. Although she was making quite a mess of her outfit…and the floor for that matter but I didn’t care. I’m s

    Steamy time in the office. “Do I even want to ask who you have in mind?” I chuckle as he closes the door, after watching Rory walk down the corridor. “No, because right now I have you all to myself.” He seductively grins as he locks the office door. “That’s true!” I stand up off his chair and walk towards the other side of the desk, perching against it slightly.Blake had put my outfit together for me today. A tight black vest top with skin coloured leggings. She said my wardrobe space was huge and looked very sad with nothing in it. So I ordered a few bits on her recommendation, and clearly my fiancé appreciated my attire today. “Do you have any idea how sexy you look in those leggings?” His eyes turn to that of a predator, ready to devour me. His eyes remain on me, my skin heating under his focused stare, as he prowls towards me. My body reacts to his movement, my breathing quickening as my breasts rise and fall under my tight vest. He leans into me, encasing me against the de

    A forever friendship. Three weeks have passed and the dust was starting to settle. The Saunders pack had lost a lot of warriors and we have been providing lycan muscle to help protect their borders while they train pack members in case another attack occurred. However, you could be the best trained warrior yet a fight against witchcraft would completely reduce your chances of survival. This brought a new fire to my belly in ensuring the safety of the shifter community’s future. The Santos Lycan training programme was actually over subscribed and fully booked for the next two years. Alpha’s were keen to ensure their warriors were trained at the highest level. I think it also helped that they had pledged to me and knew I wouldn’t let anything untoward happen to their male and female fighters whilst on Royal Lycan land. Rafe had completed his training and I was sad to see him go. I missed seeing him around the training base. Alpha Ray and Luna Rennie came to his graduation, even Rowan
