Chapter 81

Amber(Christmas day)A knock sounded on the bedroom door pulling my attention out of the memories that seemed to be all I could concentrate on recently.Ever since I found out I was pregnant, I couldn't stop thinking about how the hell my life had gotten so off track.My parents raised me right. With good ideals and strong morals, I had spent the entirety of my teenage years focused on my goals. Graduate with good grades, become a teacher, earn a good wage, find a mate, have children and live happily ever after.It might seem like a simple boring life to most, but life is rarely boring when you live in a pack of werewolves and I guess I always strived for normal.Well, my life was anything but simple, boring or normal now. I was pregnant with the Beta' baby and he could barely stand to look at me most days."Come in" I called, my voice low but I knew they wouldn't struggle to hear me."Oh, my

Chapter 82

Roman (Christmas day) I slumped back in the lounge chair as Tristan saw the dinner guests out, including a rather red faced and angry Mr and Mrs Briggs. Not that I could blame them, the Briggs’ were a traditional shifter family, with morals stemming from the old days, back when any kind of relations outside of mating was severely frowned upon. Not only had Amber and I gone against their ideals, but had also managed to produce a child, something that, back in the day, the baby would be shunned for, the mother would be ostracised, and the father punished, corporally.  Goddess, a child.  The thought kept popping into my head like a freight train, unyielding and pushing everything else out of its way.  Amber is pregnant. And I had no doubt that the baby was mine, I was her first, and I would have smelt if she had been with anyone since, our scents rub off, and tend to linger, es

Chapter 83

Amber(Christmas day)Cali’s eyes glazed over slightly, in the tell-tale sign of a mind link and I watched as her face screwed up in a comical expression, under any other circumstances I would have laughed aloud, but I really didn’t have it in me today.“Tristan said your parent have gone home, they want you to call them later.” She informed and I nodded, my mind registering the look of love that was plain for all to see, any time she spoken about, or even thought of her mate.How I envied that. It was all I had every truly wanted, a family to call my own. A mate that loved me and a brood of children to occupy my time. Now it seemed that would never be my reality, because let’s be honest, even in this day and age, who would want to mate with a child in tow.“I’m sorry Amber but we have to get ready for the party. Do you want to skip it?” Cali asked wincing and I offer

Chapter 84

Roman(Christmas Day)The Christmas party was in full swing by the time I made it down to the ballroom.I offered obligatory smiles to pack members, but there was nothing to feel happy about, nothing to celebrate. I scratched at the new mark on my neck as I flagged a passing waiter and grabbed two drinks, downing one before placing the empty glass back in the tray and making my way deeper into the ballroom.Amber was flat out, no doubt burnt out by the stress of the day, hell, of the last week, I guess.Part of me wanted to be mad. She had known about the baby for days and not said anything. We could have sorted something out so that it didn't come to this. But I couldn't blame her for not telling me. Not really.I know the image I portray, I'm not exactly the most approachable of men, couple that with the fucked-up situation over the last couple of months, and well, I'm surprised she's talking to me at all.

Chapter 85

AmberWith my eyes firmly fixed on his, I pulled the tie on my gown and let it drop to the floor before stepping in the shower behind him and running my hands over his heated, wet skin."This isn't a good idea right now Amber." "Why not?" I asked distracted by the feel of his smooth skin under my hands as I stepped closer and ran my fingers around his sides, down his stomach and that enticing v line of muscle until they hit the hard erection that felt like a rod of steel wrapped in silk. Roman's hands dropped away from his body with a groan and a shiver, allowing me to take over as I wrapped my fingers around him in a firm grip, the way he liked.  I barely managed to slide my hand down his length twice before he pulled away and turned to face me, leaving space between us. "Amber, I'm not entirely in control right now. I don't want to hurt you." He stated and I watc

Chapter 86

CaliWhile I had come to love the idea of being a Mum, the pregnancy itself wasn’t doing me any favours. I felt like a walking time bomb. One minute I was happy, content, the next I was an emotional wreck, and I just couldn’t seem to get a hold on it.A month ago, someone shouting at me like that would have done little more that rile me, but today, well today it was taking all of my strength not to curl up in a ball on the floor and cry until I couldn’t think any more.I paced around my office, trying not to listen in to the argument that was still going on downstairs, but I couldn’t help it. Amber was my friend, my first friend, and to have to stand by and listen as her own father spoke to her like that was killing me, but I also knew that right now I just wouldn’t be able to handle it and that was the thought that finally had the tears spilling over.Eventually the shouting stopped and now I had to actively

Chapter 87

AmberI barely felt present throughout breakfast. Cora asked her questions from her seat beside Ezra, and Cali seemed perfectly content to answer her, or maybe she just noticed how preoccupied I was.‘What’s wrong?’ Roman’s voice echoed in my mind, and I looked up to see his warm eyes on mine.‘Nothing.’‘You’ve barely said two words since we came in. look, I get this isn’t exactly the romance of the century and I am far from being the ideal candidate but I’m trying here. It would help if you were in this with me.’ He stated an edge to his voice that I hadn’t heard before and I took a deep breath and focused on the people around me.He was right of course. There had been zero romance involved in our mating. Considering he had literally been forced into this he was less than the most ideal candidate and yet he was the one sat smiling and laughing with our friend

Chapter 88

 AmberIt was pitch black by the time I returned to the pack house, laden down with medical supplies and my head swimming with more knowledge than I ever hoped to remember.The doc had been through, that was for sure, covering everything from stitches to punctured lungs. I was really hoping that I never had to deal with that one.And the supplies I carried were vast and plentiful, although the doc had made a point, on multiple occasions, to tell me that for most types of wounds, the best treatment was my own saliva. Which is just gross, but well, if it comes to that.It's just one of the things that comes with being mated, when biting each other our DNA mixes allowing us the ability to heal each other through our wolves. It wasn't commonly discussed, it was quite an intimate act, healing your mate.I shook off the thought, there was no point in worrying about it now. It may never come to that. I hope it never comes to

Chapter 89

AmberIt was cold out and I wrapped my arms around myself as I stood with the crowd, listening to Michael explain the rules, both to the challengers and the spectators.There were more people here than I expected, somewhere close to forty if I had to guess. The crowd had been silent for almost the entire instruction until Michael started discussing how only a mate could provide assistance, but that mates were not allowed to enter the challenge zone, only the safe zone. Most of the next instructions were drowned out by the mutterings of the crowd."Well how is that fair, the beta doesn't have a mate.""I still think the beta will win. Have you actually seen him fight? His wolf's a beast.""I still can't believe Trent is doing this.  I always thought he liked the leaders. He was certainly always respectful, and isn't his daughter a beta?""It’s about time someone took the beta down a peg or two. He needs to learn a le

Chapter 90

 RomanDespite my frantic dash towards the middle of the challenge zone, the first four hours of the challenge were mostly uneventful.Trent was better at steal and concealment than I remembered, he had even managed to completely mask his scent. Not something most wolves could do.I hadn't bothered masking mine. I had been all over the land since the bell sounded, mapping the terrain. There was a freshwater pond half a mile from my safe zone and another closer to Trent's safe zone which made sense. They weren't going to throw us into the woods with zero sustenance for an unplanned amount of time.Food on the other hand could be a problem. The middle of winter, with the ground frozen the bushes bare and the trees covered in a thin coating of frost wasn't the most prolific time to be hunting. Nature was taking its toll on me, and we were genetically designed for this unlike the animals that frequented these woods, and still I c
