Luara's POV After running for hours, we all made it to my territory. When cross the boundary line, we found wolves waiting for us at the border.They let us all through, Andrew helped accompany my father's wolves and directed us back to mine and Bryan's house.I ordered them to all stay outside, I needed to talk to Bryan in private, and I didn't want anyone to know our business. I reassured them by confirming that if there was a problem, I would call for them. At first, they hated the idea but one glare from me and they agreed.I made my way up the front steps; the door were wide open so I walked through. The moment I walked in I noticed a scent that I recognised alongside Bryan's but I could decipher whose scent it was.Curiosity got the best of me and I followed it, intrigued and interested on who's scent that was.I quietly walked up the stairs, I could sense that there were only two wolves in the house. Walking along the corridor I assuming that I would end up outside of Bryan's
Luara's POV Bryan presence rapidly changed as he stood straight, his stance turning intimating as he took a step closer to Melinda. He growled darkly at her, warning her to listen as he captured her attention while taking it off of me. "This information stays between us, it is not information you are allowed to share. If you fail to do so, I will carry out the threat I promised before."From the dark look in his eyes, his wolf was definitely lucking at the surface. His eyes had changed from emerald green to pitch black, his eyes narrowed on Mellissa as his wolf took over using his authority as an Alpha to command her to abide by his rules and demands.His words reminding me of the day that I had stopped him from taking her life as he dangled her by the scruff of her t-shirt as she sat in a prison cell months ago."Don't you have a mate to be with?" Bryan asked, his voice sounded calm, but you could hear the deadly tone in his voice as he raised his eyebrow in question.Melinda con
Luara's POV "A baby girl?" Bryan repeated.Greg smiled, nodding. "A little girl." He confirmed, typing away at his computer.Bryan's smile was infectious, and I rarely got to see it but when I did, it made my stomach flutter with butterflies."I have printed out a few scan photos for you to keep. We need to arrange another appointment for a few weeks to see how the baby is doing." Greg said as he handed me an envelope with the scans in."There's a few concerns that I have," I began. "I have still yet to feel her move and as you know already, I have no pregnancy scent."Greg looked at me, and bit on his bottom lip. "I'm not sure why you have no scent but all babies are different, I can tell on the scans that she is very much healthy. Hopefully, she'll start moving around soon." He said, reassuring me.I pulled my top down, as I began moving from the hospital bed, hearing Bryan thank the doctor before pulling me out of the infirmary and through the pack house.He held my hand, we bo
Luara's POVA few gasps were heard as we all stared at the young boy, holding onto my belly gently. He stood staring at me fiercely but not in anger, but adamant that I was carrying his mate.I looked up at Bryan, who was staring down at Melvin intensely before staring back at me, just as confused as I was."How is this possible?" I said out loud, a question that was swirling around my mind again and again.My daughter began kicking which made the young boy hold tighter, moving his small hands to follow her kicks."No." Bryan stated, staring down at Melvin."Mine." Maverick repeated."No." Bryan demanded, his voice tight and insistent. His eyes splitting into slits as he stared down at the young boy as Melvin's expression echoed his.Bryan lowly growled in warning, from the look on his face he could kill. His anger showed, and I moved to stand up as Melvin mother who I now realised was Prince's mate, grabbed him, pulling him besides her."Have you told your son to do this?" Bryan snar
Luara's POV Maxwell and Lucas had both arrived along with a few wolves they brought with them and we were all currently sitting in my father's dining hall as his office was too small to hold the meeting due to the amount of wolves who had arrived with each Alpha.The atmosphere felt extremely tense, and with so many Alphas in the same room, it was almost too overwhelming.Maxwell took a seat next to Bryan, with me to the left of him. My mom and dad had both sat on the same side of us while Prince, Elena and Lucas sat on the opposite side facing us.Bryan informed me this morning that he had phoned Maxwell last night and had explained the situation we have regarding Melvin.Maxwell was cautious and made it very clear. "So I've heard that a certain young Alpha is my granddaughters mate." It sounded like a question but came out like a statement and it was aimed at Prince, his eyes glowing.Like Bryan, he was concerned that this could be a trick and it wasn't something they were going t
Luara's POV Time had been passing by quickly, it had been nearly a month since we came home from my father's territory.I was a few days from being in the 13th week of my pregnancy, meaning I only had three more to go.To say I was petrified would be an understatement but with Bryan and Melvin by my side, it was easier.Melvin had been staying on our territory a lot over the past few weeks.Our arrangement with Prince and Elena was that we would have him on our territory from Monday to Wednesday but it always seemed to be an up-hill battle every time it came to him going home.He would throw a complete toddler strop, kicking up a big fuss until Bryan lost his temper.It was a complex situation as it was only going to get worse the longer it went on and with our daughter yet to be born, Bryan was beginning to get even more frustrated.We were all concerned that it would get to a point where they would have to stay together constantly, just like the mate bond intends. We were due to sp
Luara's POV I felt my body wake yet my eyes stayed glued shut unable to open, all I could hear was people frantically moving around me until a hand began to stroke my face gently and I unconsciously moved into the comforting hand. "Luara, can you hear me sweetheart?"Lopez's comforting voice surrounded me as I laid there still and feeling numb. My whole being felt heavy, as if a house had fell on top of me.I moaned in pain as I opened my mouth a little needing air, my airway feeling constricted."We need to get her to the infirmary." Lopez cried as she kept stroking the hair out my face as I continued to struggle to open my eyes, deciding it was best to keep them shut to not waste any energy I might have."I'll pick her up as gently as I can, you go get Bryan." Luke ordered, Lopez was frantic and was unable to think clearly.His hands carefully go underneath my body, one arm supporting my back and the other my legs. I was engulfed in Luke's scent as he slowly picked me up into his
Bryan's POV I stood up, swiftly catching my daughter as Luara lost her grip, her muscles going limp as she lost consciousness.A pack nurse immediately rushed over, reaching out to grab my daughter from my hands as I carefully placed her into her arms.My chest felt heavy as I stared down at my mate in panic, my heart beating rapidly as I grabbed the standing heart monitor that was monitoring Luara's heart rate.Her heart beat was rapidly losing strength as her chest began to rise and fall slowly, the sound echoing through the room, her heart's rhythm slowing and weakening with each agonizing second that went by. My head swung to the side at I glared at the pack doctor, "Do something, bring her back!" I growled frustrated as I began walking towards him.He backed away, trying to move from my line of sight as he quickly moved round the hospital bed. "Alpha, you need to calm down." He ordered weakly, his hands making vulnerable hand gestures as he tried to defuse the situation."Yo
