GINGER

I rolled into the house around three to Paige with her hands on her hips. "And where have you been?"

"Hi, Mom, nice to see you too," I replied, rolling my eyes.

"What happened to your arms?" She came closer. "And your pants?" I looked down to see that my linen pants were dirt-streaked and torn. Well, there went one leg-covering item.

"Nothing. Just another spill."

"You're not usually that clumsy."

"Maybe I'm getting old."

"Seriously, Gigi?"

I shrugged and turned to walk upstairs to change. Before I got too far, she said, "You smell like Alpha Tyce. That wouldn't happen to have anything to do with what happened, would it?" I stopped for a second, caught off guard. But I decided to just ignore her and continue on my way until I was safely in my room and able to close the door.

Fuck, I didn't think I'd be able to get away with wearing long sleeves too. I examined the scratches along my arms and wondered how long it would take them to fully heal. I groaned as I pulled a ma

I think Hunter and Heidi are gay and they are using each other as cover.

Interesting...and thus, the plot thickens! I've been on my toes this whole book, but now even more on the edge of my seat!

    JASMINE "Blake, Blake, wake up," I gently shook my mate's shoulder. He stirred and opened his mesmerizing blue eyes to me. His lips turned upward into a smile as he brushed my hair out of my face. "Blake, the pups—they're kicking." He instantly moved his hand to my belly, sparks drifting across my skin as he kept it there, little pops inside me. His smile widened. "I can feel them! Already alpha warriors." He pulled me against him and kissed me. "I wouldn't expect any less of course, with two alpha parents." I snuggled into him, listening to the drumming of his heart in his chest. "You've been getting better, Blake." "Maybe you're just getting used to it like I have." "No, I definitely think you're getting better." He didn't say anything and rubbed his hand up and down my back. I could barely bring myself to get out of bed to get ready for the day. It didn't help that I was constantly exhausted. Growing twins in six months was taking a toll on me, and I imagined alpha ones likely

    GINGER "Aren't you hot dressed like that?" Heidi asked only seconds into arriving. "It's cold in here." "Cold?" She looked around as if she could actually see the temperature. I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, I'm cold." "Maybe you caught something. Do you have a fever?" Heidi asked, putting her hand to my forehead. I swiped it away. "I'm fine." "Maybe you got mono." She snickered. "Haha! So funny! Why don't you get all your slut jokes out of the way now so I don't have to endure them all night," I replied. "We can't all be Miss Mated and Married perfect housewife." "I'm not a housewife!" She scoffed. "I told you, I've decided to start taking classes in graphic design at the local community college. There's just not a lot of job options out here in the middle of nowhere. But I think this will be good for me." "Weren't you trying to conceive?" "Yes, so?" She asked. "I can be both a mother and in school. Or working." "Who's going to watch the pup?" "I'm sure Mom will help. What, wer

    GINGER A few hours after my exit, Paige burst into my room. "What did I tell you about knocking!" I yelled. "As long as I don't walk in on you getting a golden shower or having anal sex with Tyce, I think I'm good." She snickered. "What about him wearing my panties?" I couldn’t help but let out a chuckle. "Well, I'm thinking the important things would be covered in that case. And, anyway, I've already seen him naked." "What! You have?" I was furious at the thought, and my fingers began contorting themselves to turn to claws, similar to the night I went to the club. "I am a warrior, you know. We're constantly shifting back and forth between our two forms." I calmed down after she gave her explanation, relieved that nothing more nefarious had gone on. "Especially Tyce since he can't mindlink with us. And it's literally all the other female warriors can talk about. You should hear them. I think they're worse than the guys!" "What do they say?" I asked, my ears perking up. She snic

    JASMINEOn Saturday morning, I was looking through some reports on the casino, upstairs in my office, when I recalled that Blake had recently printed out the PowerPoint slides from a presentation we'd been given earlier that week. He had taken some handwritten notes and I wanted to make sure I took them into consideration before I responded to the CEO's email that was awaiting a reply, so I descended the stairs to go find them in his office.As I approached, I noticed the door was slightly ajar with light trickling into the hallway, and voices in a passionate conversation, possibly an argument. Curiosity getting the best of me, I snuck closer so I could better hear what was going on."Fucking Artemis, Lucy, now is not the time. Blake could come back any second. Put your clothes back on.""C'mon, Luke, don't you think it's time we get started on the beta heir? You know the pack's going to be expecting one now." It was quiet for a moment and then Lucy's voice continued, "That's right, b

    GINGER The morning after the sisters' potluck disaster, I woke up to find the house empty. Paige was nowhere to be found. I figured she must have had Saturday duty along with my dad. My mom also wasn’t home, and the family car was gone. I breathed out a happy sigh. It was nice when I got the house to myself. I could just wallow in my misery alone without anyone bothering me. I spent the entire morning and early afternoon in the backyard, laying out in the sun while reading and listening to music. The sun was bright without a cloud in sight—the perfect day to sunbathe. I knew I'd regret it later since my fair skin didn't take well to the sun. But my sunburns eventually faded into tans, so I suffered through it. Around mid-afternoon, a group text came in from Lucy, with a bunch of phone numbers included I didn't know. Lucy: Club tonight! Packhouse 10 sharp! I was going to ignore the text at first, but then, I thought, it would be nice to get out and ignore my problems. I double-che

    GINGER By the time nine o'clock had rolled around, Paige still wasn't home. I quickly shot her a text to make sure she was okay. I then showered, noting my skin did not take well to the sun at all and it would definitely be peeling soon, only adding to the injuries to my body that I'd need to cover. Pretty soon my only option was going to be a full-on burqa. I made sure to keep the water cool in order not to scald myself. I tried to put a bra on and found it painful when parts of it would touch the skin my bikini hadn't covered. It was becoming quite clear what a bad idea it was to go clubbing that night as I'd also have to cover my legs and arms. I hadn't thought this through fully. But I had already committed to go and didn't want to back out now. In the end, I pulled on some fishnet stockings, and wrapped a scarf creatively around my stitches, thinking maybe I could set a new trend, chuckling to myself. On top, I had on a pair of black shorts, and a long-sleeve blouse with loose

    GINGER I didn't know what I was expecting when we stepped out of that room, and part of me probably should have expected what I witnessed, but it was still quite shocking. Lucy was completely sloshed—especially considering she was a werewolf. If I didn't know better, I'd think she was one of my college friends rather than a beta's mate. She was grinding up on all the guys that had come with us, wobbly on her feet, practically falling over as she flung her body against theirs. One of them took a bottle of beer and started pouring it from above into her mouth while everyone looked on cheering. "Oh, fuck," Tyce shouted next to me, and headed toward the group. "Alpha Tyce!" Lucy yelled so loudly I could hear her over the music. "Pour some more in my mouth." I couldn't hear what was said after that, but I watched as Tyce clearly tried to persuade her to go with him. There was a struggle between the two of them as he put his arm around her shoulders, and she pushed him away from her. It

    GINGER Tyce helped Lucy into the backseat, where she laid down, and the valet opened the passenger door for me so I could get in. Most of the way back to the pack was pretty quiet. Tyce played music on low and Lucy was soon passed out sleeping. As we pulled into the packhouse driveway, Tyce took my hand in his and asked, "Would you want to hang out a bit longer before I take you home?" I nodded. He gave me a big smile and said, "Great! Let me just get rid of Lucy. Wait here." Not long after, Tyce came out with a tired-looking Beta Luke. They opened the back door, and Beta Luke peaked into the car. "Alright, Lucy, let's go." "Lukey!" She stirred from the back. "How much did you drink?" He asked, scrunching his nose. "I was just having some fun, baby!" She replied, getting up and stumbling as she tried to climb out of the car. Luke easily caught her, pulling her up by her arms. Luke heaved a sigh. "Okay, let's go inside." I watched as he practically carried her back toward the pack

    TRIGGER WARNING: This final scene contains torture and is not recommended to the squeamish. It is not necessary to the plot of the book and was only added to give readers some satisfaction with tying up some loose ends. --- TYSON I picked up my ringing phone. "Sara caught the culprits," Trav said, not even bothering to say hello. "Damn," I replied. "She's already tortured them, but offered to let you finish them off. You know, for pack alliance reasons." "I have a feeling that allowing someone else to do the final deed is a gift of generosity in her eyes." I chuckled to myself. Trav's mate was something else. But I'd be damned if I didn't want to watch the motherfuckers that killed my grandfather take their final breaths. Before I hung up, I asked, "Can I bring Dad?" "Obviously that's still a bit of a touchy subject but…" his voice trailed. "But you know that Dad, more than anyone, would want to be the one that does it." I finished his sentence for him. Trav let out a breath.

    *Three weeks later* GINGER "Goddess, it's been such a long week!" I flopped onto the bed after showering and throwing on some sweats on a Saturday night in late October. "Your alpha schedule is no joke," I griped to Tyce. "I'm ready to go to bed now." "Do you think you could stay awake for a little bit longer?" He came over and sat on the bed. "Because I have a surprise that just came today." "A surprise? Have I been so busy that I didn't even realize it's my birthday already?" I joked. "It's a 'just because' kind of surprise." "Goddess, stop, Tyce. I can't do all this sweetness. I need a dentist! I think I'm getting cavities." "Okay, the surprise isn't really for you. It's for Splinter anyway. Are you ready for me to bring it in?" "Well, if it's not for me, you should ask Splinter," I teased. "Splinter already said he's ready." "Okay, rat whisperer." Tyce gave me a cute little smile that made my stomach flip-flop. Fuck, why did he affect me so much? Even though we'd now bee

    *Almost three weeks later*JASMINE"Gigi!" Paige and Heidi screamed as their sister made her way out into the airport arrivals area. They both rushed over, wrapping their arms tightly around her. Her parents followed, doing the same.Blake grabbed her luggage from her, and then I gave Gigi my own hug. "Welcome home, well, sort of," I said."Thanks," Gigi hugged me back. "And how are the miracle pups?" She asked, looking into my double stroller. "Wow, they're so big compared to the last time I saw them!""Do you want to hold one of them?" I offered. They were staring up at her with their big blue eyes."I'd love that," she replied, with a big smile on her face. I pulled Aria out of the stroller and handed her to Gigi. "You're so much cuter in person than over Zoom, Aria," Gigi swooned, cradling her in her arms."Welcome, Tyce," I said, pulling my cousin in for a hug next."Congrats, again, Jaz," he replied, hugging me back. "We've been looking forward to this run since you left to go h

    TYSON "Okay, so what's the story?" I asked Sara as she navigated the boat back to the Spruce Winter Pack. "There's not much to it. I swam back like I said I would. I found a storage closet, that I was easily able to break into and steal some clothes. Then I walked the dock and picked the boat that looked the least fucked up and hotwired it. And here I am." "Damn!" "She's amazing," Trav remarked. "Best mate." Sara glanced his way and gave him a smile. "You did really good, Blondie Baby Badass," Trav swooned. I choked, trying so hard not to laugh. I couldn't believe that was actually the nickname he'd come up for her and she was okay with it. But, I supposed, that was the mate bond. "Tyce, they're waking!" Blake called for me. I walked past Gigi and Jasmine, who were snuggled up together with the pups. We'd found a spare blanket in the boat that we'd wrapped around them to keep them warm. I entered the inner part of the boat, closing the door behind me, and made my way to the v

    GINGER "Is it possible for her to go into active labor so quickly?" Tyce asked. "I don't know," I replied. "They're alpha pups," Blake added. "I think things progress much faster with alpha pu—" He didn't finish his sentence as he let out another moan. "Fuck!" "Blake, I think I might be going into active labor," Jasmine cried out. "Try walking," I said. "I think walking is supposed to help." She nodded, and Blake helped her back up. She began walking in circles as we stood around and watched. Every few minutes, another contraction would roll over her, and she and Blake would flinch in pain. "Okay, we need to make a plan," Blake said. "It's very fucking possible she's going to give birth here on an island, in the middle of the ocean, in the woods." He winced, clenching his hands into fists, his arms shaking. "Goddess, what are the fucking chances? And I thought giving birth on an airplane would be bad." "Gigi, I think you're going to have to help deliver the baby, because you kn

    GINGER "Admit it, this is just as much of a farce as your shit framing job," Sara aggressively yelled. "What the fuck are you talking about?" Alpha Vic turned to glare at her. Before Sara could answer, a loud explosion rang out far ahead, as if a bomb had gone off. We all covered our ears in reaction to the loud boom, the smell of explosives thick in the air. "Oh, shit! What was that?" Alpha Vic shouted. Suddenly, a large group of mice sprinted under our feet, likely running from whatever that explosion had been. I tensed and looked toward Tyce. And I couldn't believe it, but he hadn't shifted. He stood there, still as a stone, his hands clenched, and it took everything in me not to celebrate right then and there. "The windmills!" Alpha Vic's father yelled, snapping my attention back to reality. Before anyone had time to react, Alpha Vic and his father began running in the direction of where the boom had sounded. "Gigi, stay here with Jasmine," Tyce shouted to me, and then took

    GINGER "Mmm," Tyce moaned into my ear as the alarm went off, waking us early on Monday morning. I was still getting used to waking up before the sun rose. But this seemed to be Tyce's schedule, and I couldn’t believe that he'd functioned all summer like this considering how late we'd stayed up on many nights. "Do we have to get up?" I moaned, snuggling closer to him. He chuckled. "Time for my morning injection. Then breakfast and morning run before temple." "Goddess, your schedule is so intense." "I thought you wanted to be a warrior," he teased, nibbling on my nose. "But if you wanted a quickie, I could be persuaded to stay in bed a little longer." "When I see proof you have complete control of your wolf, that'll be on the table again." I gave him a playful shove. "Hopefully on the table, the counter, the wall, the floor, the chair…" his voice trailed. He chuckled again, "and in the backdoor." "Okay, Tyce." I grinned to myself. "I'll make a deal with you. I'll let you put it i

    TYSON Before the end of the day, the packhouse had filled up with Blake, Jasmine, and her parents. Terri made the trek back from school. And then we got word that my uncle, whom we hadn't seen in years, had arrived for the funeral with his family. I supposed death was the one thing that really brought everyone out. I barely had the chance to introduce Terri to Gigi or even process everyone that was making an appearance when it was time to leave for the service. Gigi and I rode over with my mom, dad, and grandma. I got shafted to the middle seat with Gigi and my grandma on either side of me. My dad was uncharacteristically quiet during the drive. I got the idea that he was taking this a lot harder than he let on. My grandma, on the other hand, didn't hide her feelings at all as she sobbed quietly the entire ride. Blake pulled up in my car next to us as we parked. I'd given it to him to borrow for the duration of their trip. As my dad held my grandma's arm and pulled her along toward

    TYSON On Saturday, I spent the morning training and running patrol stations. It was nice getting out and doing something active to get my mind off things. After an early lunch, I trained Gigi for another two hours. "I'd like to start training you in your wolf form," I said. "But in order to do that, you're going to have to join my pack so I can communicate with you." "Okay," she replied, but I could sense hesitation and maybe even sadness. "Do you not want to join my pack?" I asked, coming closer, taking her hands in mine. Her skin was like ice. Even though we'd kept warm by staying active, her hands were still cold, and I didn't want to let them go, trying to warm them for her. "I do…" her voice trailed. "But?" She sighed. "Please tell me, Gigi. I won't be upset. I just want to know what's wrong." "It'll just be so final. I'll lose the last bit of attachment I have to my pack and family." She put her head on my chest and I pulled her closer to me. "I want you to feel at home
