I smiled, “I’m glad you’re looking forward to seeing her, but I think we need to get you settled into your room, get you some clothes and shoes, and get the doctor to see you. Is that okay?” Calista nodded, “Will the doctor hurt me?” I shook my head, “Our doctor does everything he can to try not to hurt you. Okay? We just want to make sure you aren’t just happy, but healthy too.”
She smiled as she ate, “Thank you, Princess.” I told her, “You can call me Elisa or anything you want. Okay?” She asked, “I know you aren’t my real mom, but can I call you my mom?” I smiled, “That would be my honor.” Then she turned to Elliot, “Can I call you my dad?” Elliot smiled with a tear in his eyes, “That would mean the world to me, little one.” Then dad walked up to her, “You can call me grandpa, if you want.” She giggled, “I never had a grandpa before.” Dad smiled, “Well, you’re in for a whole new kind of treat. My job is to spoil you rotten with all kinds of treats and to love you like cra
I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I would love to read your comments.
I laughed as I turned around, “I wouldn’t think I can. It looks like I actually did. So, yeah. I can take what was never yours to begin with. Calista is a child, not property.” Alpha Johnathon’s face turned bright red, “I will kill you for taking her away from me.” Just then Alpha Damien approached him from behind, “Alpha Johnathon, you came a long way. To what to we owe this visit? Are you really so angry that you are willing to risk being thrown into the dungeons and tried by the council for child abuse and conspiracy to mate and mark a minor child against her will?” Alpha Johnathon started stuttering and stammered, “Well, how do you know it was me who did it?” Alpha Damien replied, “Nobody else in your pack knew she was even there. She will be seen by their doctor, and I know that doctor will find scars and marks. He will be able to tell how old the scars are and how she got them. So, do you really want to start shit at this very moment when you could enjoy your freedom for a few
I stepped out of the medical room and greeted her, “Mom! She’s seeing the doctor. No need to get all bent out of shape.” Mom chuckled, “I’m sorry, honey. I’m just so excited to have a granddaughter. I can’t wait to spoil her rotten.” I laughed, “She’s seeing the doctor right now. As soon as she is done, we will bring her to the living room. It should only be a couple more minutes.” Mom smiled, “I will be waiting patiently.” She walked into the living room, and I went back to the medical room. I was chuckling when I walked through the door and Calista asked, “What’s so funny, mom?” I laughed, “You have a grandma who is dying to meet you.” Calista giggled, “I can’t wait to meet her too.” The doctor interrupted, “Well, it looks like we are all done here. I will let you get dressed and I will get going. I will write a report and send it to the council. It was very nice meeting you, Calista.” Calista nodded her head once, “Thank you, doctor. It was very nice meeting you too. I ho
When Elliot and I went to bed, I did my nightly routine, then got dressed for bed. When I got in bed, Elliot was waiting for me, “Come here, love. You need to rest for our pups.” I smile as I snuggle closer to him, “Mmm, my favorite place to be… In your arms. I love the way you pull me close.” I could feel him smile as he buried his face in my neck, taking in my scent, “Rest easy, love. I’ll be here when you wake.” I giggled, “Unless our new daughter wakes us.” Just then, there was a tiny knock on our door. I smiled, “Sounds like she’s not waiting for morning.” Elliot got out of bed and opened the door, “Yes, my princess?” Calista was rubbing her eyes and crying, “Dad, I had a bad dream. Can I sleep with you and mom?” Elliot looked at me, and I nodded. He picked her up, shut our door, and walked to our bed, “Of course, you can, baby girl.” Elliot put her between us on the bed. She put her arm over me and kissed my cheek, “I love you mom.” My heart immediately melted in
King Uther got down on his knees and stretched his arms out wide while Calista ran right into them. She wrapped her little arms around his big neck and kissed his cheek, “I’m Calista, your granddaughter.” King Uther laughed as he hugged her tightly, “I’m King Uther of the Dragon Kingdom of the North, your great grandpa. The lady behind me is Queen Chumani, your great grandma.” Calista giggled, “I have A LOT of grandmas and grandpas. That makes me happy.” While Calista was talking to her great grandparents, Prince Aidinth and Princess Chloe walked in. Calista took one look at Princess Chloe and gasped as she slowly walked to her, “Are you my grandma too?” Chloe smiled, “I am. Are you happy about that?” Calista nodded and ran into her arms, “You’re so beautiful!” Chloe smiled, “So are you, sweetheart.” Prince Aidinth smiled, “I’m your grandpa too.” Calista smiled, “Hi Grandpa! Can I call you Poppy? I need to call each of my grandpas something different so you know who I’m talk
I walked into the conference room and found Elliot and my dad absolutely fuming and on the verge of shifting. I asked, “What’s going on?” I looked at the images projected on the wall, and nearly lost my shit right alongside them. The Alpha had another child on the table and was skinning his arms! My first thought was, “This bastard is going to die.” Then my second thought was, “Why didn’t I hear this child?” I asked, “Are you guys ready? I’m not waiting for a plan on this one. This child needs us now.” As dad and Elliot stood, I put a protection spell on all of us, then put my hands on each of their shoulders and we were suddenly in the same room as the Alpha. Dad immediately grabbed the Alpha and restrained him with silver cuffs. Elliot immediately tried to grab the boy, but realized the boy was already gone. I turned to the Alpha, “When did this one die?” The Alpha just shrugged, “No clue. I was having so much fun, I stopped paying attention.” I shook my head, “Thi
I watched as everyone in the crowd stopped and bared their necks in submission as he continued, “My father and I will not leave this pack until you all have a competent Alpha. Who is the current Beta?” One man stepped forward, “I am. I was the Gamma, but after the rogue attack, Alpha made me Beta.” Alpha Nico asked, “Are you aware of the pile behind this building?” The man furrows his brow, “What pile? Alpha has been putting all his work on me, so I’ve been locked up in my office since the attack. I swear to you that I have not been out of the house since the attack.” I take him around back, and he growls, then he pukes, “Why the hell are these children dead and why have they not been buried?” I furrowed my brows at him, “Do you expect me to believe you didn’t know what your Alpha has been doing since the rogue attack?” He lowered his head, “I’m sorry to say I didn’t know. Are you going to tell me why these children are here?” I sighed, “Your Alpha tortured these child
It has been three months since the day we rescued Doyle and Calista has visited her aunt and uncle at the river for the first time. She has been at the river every day since then. If we don’t get to take her, Taylor and Evan would take her with them while they are on land. Her swimming skills are now at almost expert level now, but it’s getting too cold now to swim in the river, and she is not happy. “Mom! Do you have any ideas what I can do? I can’t swim because it’s too cold. What are some things I can do in the cold weather?” I smiled, then replied, “Would you like to learn how to cook? That’s a fun thing you can do on a cold day.” She smiled, “I would like to learn that, but I’m wondering if I can paint or something like that.” I replied, “Hmm, how about diamond painting?” She cocked her head to one side, “What is that?” I took her in my craft room, and showed her the one I was doing, “You see these tiny little crystals in different colors? You see this sticky paper with
After shopping in the mall for two hours, we found the gaming system that Calista wants along with games that she wants to play, and games that she and her uncles would like to play together. I went to a maternity store and bought some maternity clothes because my belly is getting too big for my clothes. I’m four months pregnant and I look seven months along. I’m so ready for this pregnancy to be over. I can’t believe I still have another five months! Maybe I will have them a little early. After finishing up and eating dinner, we all went home. When we got there, Calista thanked Elliot and me when we finished setting up her gaming system and her uncles started playing games with her. Elliot and I walked back downstairs and sat on the couch. I laid my head on Elliot’s lap as we started watching TV. Elliot smiled, “I love sitting like this.” I sigh, “Enjoy it while you can. When these babies are born, I’m not so sure we will get much time for this. Especially in the beginning.
Twenty Years Later I’m sitting in my favorite spot with my mate sitting behind me in my favorite lounge chair. We are both drinking our morning coffee as two mountain lions walked up to the deck. They both bowed to us, and I smiled, “Good morning, Dusty. Good morning, Lilly.” Dusty found his mate in his own pack on his sixteenth birthday. We had a party for him that night and he introduced her to all of us. She is such a sweet girl I really couldn’t wish for anything better for him. Robert and Katie are so proud of them. They had four children and they only have two still at home. I am so proud of the parents they are. The two children that have already found their mates and left are absolutely awesome. Linden found his mate and decided to build another house close to our land. His mate understands that he needs to be close to family and his siblings are all he has left. His father passed away when my triplets were only two years old. It was an extremely hard time for him. We made s
Robert and Katie laughed and shook their heads as Robert smiled, “Now that would make me rethink my choice to be a parent.” I laughed, “I think she did.” Just then, Calista ran out onto the deck, “Good morning, mom.” She sat in my lap and hugged me tightly. I turned her around and introduced her to them. She smiled, “It’s very nice to meet my Uncle Dusty’s parents. I love him so much!” Katie smiled, “I’m so glad you love him, Calista.” I asked Calista, “Is anyone else up?” She smiled, “Dad is up with Raze and Eva.” I laughed, “Is Willow awake yet?” She shook her head, “She was sleeping peacefully when I came out.” I smiled, “Thank you. I guess you would like some breakfast, huh?” She smiled and shook her head shyly. I smiled, “Okay.” Then I turned to Robert and Katie, “Would you like to join us?” They agreed and followed me and Calista into the house. I cooked a big breakfast and had it all laid on the table. As soon as it was all prepared, it sounded like a herd of horses coming down
When Taylor was done feeding the boys, Evan and I took the boys in the living room to visit with everyone else. Uncle Dax was the first to hold out his arms. Evan smiled as he held out the first baby boy, “You are now holding Cain, and the boy mom is holding is Dylan.” After Doctor Harper was done with Taylor, I walked with her to another guest room in the house and smiled, “I remember how all I wanted after all that was to take a shower. Is that what you would like?” She replied, “Definitely.” I smiled, “You go ahead and take a shower. That shower has a bench in it so you can sit. I would highly recommend using it. I will get you some clothes.” I opened the closet door and found a perfect pair of soft sweatpants and a t-shirt that looked lusciously oversized. I grabbed a pair of underwear and a bra and put them on the bed. When Taylor walked out of the bathroom in a towel, I asked, “Feeling better?” She smiled, “That did feel better.” I got you a comfy pair of sweats and an oversized
Seven months later… Taylor and Evan are staying in the guest house with dad and Linden. Taylor wants me to be there for her when she gives birth. She’s afraid Evan is going to pass out. Evan agrees with her, but he still wants to be there for her and to see his babies being born. He swears we will try his hardest to stay conscious. We all laugh and Elliot smiles, “I don’t blame you, dude. I almost passed out a few times.” We were all eating breakfast one morning when Taylor gasped, “Oh dear. I’m pretty sure I’m in labor.” I smiled, “Evan, you need to be keeping track of how far apart the contractions are. Let us know when they are around five minutes apart. Taylor, you need to tell him when each contraction starts and ends. Okay?” She nodded in reply and I called Doctor Harper. Doctor Harper said she would start driving here now, so we will be ready. Wow. The whole family showed up! Within 2 hours, Elliot and I were sitting in the living room with dad, my mom, Evan’s parents, Aidint
I laughed, “I understand completely.” Calista smiled, “I can sing for you, Uncle Dusty.” He looked at me and I nodded, “Trust me… You want to hear this.” Dusty nodded, “I would love to hear you sing.” Calista started singing the most beautiful and relaxing song I have ever heard and Dusty looks so relaxed and happy. When the song ends, Dusty chuckles, “Calista, you are awesome!” She smiles proudly, “I’m a mermaid/wolf hybrid and an omega. My mom and dad rescued me from my old alpha. He kept me in a tiny room under the stairs in his packhouse. He was planning on marking and mating me. They rescued me just in time.” Dusty asked, “What happened to your family?” She looked down at her hands in her lap, “My old alpha killed my parents and my brother. My parents hid me, but I saw him rip my brother’s head off. But I have mom and dad now and I have the best family ever. I have LOTS of uncles and grandparents and now I have a brother and SISTERS! I really am a lucky girl.” Dusty pulled her clo
One week later… Mom spent the night with us last night because mommy, daddy and sister all needed to get a full night of sleep. We were all starting to get quite cranky. I don’t think I was ever more thankful for my mom when she offered to stay overnight. After feeding the babies at eight pm, I went straight to bed. I think Calista went to bed before I did and Elliot was waiting for me in bed when I got there. We all slept like rocks and I didn’t wake up the entire night. It was my best night’s sleep since the night before I gave birth to all of them. Don’t get me wrong, I love all three of my newborns. But they are definitely little sleep robbers! Ladies, let me give you a bit of advice. When other women tell you to sleep when they sleep, LISTEN! Trust me, it makes perfect sense. If the things you need to do can wait, do it. They have been wearing us all out. Raze has an insatiable appetite. We were at the grocery store yesterday, and a little older lady heard Raze’s hungry screams.
I held her close to me, “I don’t care how many little girls we give birth to; you will always be our baby girl. You just won’t be the only one anymore. Okay?” She smiled as she snuggled closer to me, “I like that idea.” I smiled, “Me too.” Then I asked her, “What do you think of being a big sister now that you’ve seen your new brother and sisters?” She giggled, “I am going to have so much fun. Especially with Eva! She’s like me!” I started yawning and Elliot sighed, “Are you ready to get some sleep, love?” I shrugged, “Yeah, I better sleep while I can. Doctor Harper left some formula on the counter with the bottles. There are plenty of diapers in the nursery next to our room. Would you please turn on the baby monitor before you come to bed?” Elliot smiled, “We have plenty of help, love.” I reminded him, “Doctor Harper told me to alternate between formula and breast milk. Next feeding, you all can feed them, but please wake me to feed them when they wake to eat after that.” Mom nodded,
I suddenly felt fear wash over me and I was almost paralyzed. What if I’m a horrible mom? I mean I would never do what Dahlia did to me, but what if I don’t develop that mother-child bond? I’m scared to death but then Elliot leans to comfort me and says in low voice into my ear, “You’re going to be fine, love. You are nothing but kind and nurturing. You’ve worked wonders with Calista. You have nothing to fear, baby. You also have tons of help at your fingertips.” I smiled as he kissed my forehead, “You always know exactly what I need to hear. I love you so much.” With that, I felt my stomach get tight and I lifted my torso to bear down, pushing to help our first baby through the birth canal. Doctor Harper encouraged, “That was a really good one, Elisa. Need another push.” Another contraction hit and I started pushing again. I was pushing and felt a sudden reduction in pressure. Doctor Harper smiled, “Here is your prince!” Our little boy started wailing as his father cut the cord, “He’
I sat in the living room with my feet up with dad, Elliot, Evan, Linden and Max. I was trying to relax, but my back started hurting. The ache started moving around to my belly and I could feel my belly squeezing tightly. It wasn’t so painful that it was alarming, it just really caught my attention. I raised my shirt to expose my belly as another contraction hit. As my belly contracted, I tapped Elliot to get his attention. As we both looked down at my belly, Elliot gasped as the babies were clearly visible as my belly squeezed around them. He asked, “That looks like it hurts so bad, and you are just sitting there looking at it. You are tougher than I am.” I laughed, “My back hurts worse than my belly.” Doctor Harper walked in, “Don’t get used to it. It won’t stay this way.” I looked up at her, smiling, “It will all be worth it. I can’t wait to meet them.” Doctor Harper smiled, “You are going to be such a great mother.” I asked, “Do you think a numbing spell would be a good idea?” She
