All Chapters of Mother, May I: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

We go through the attendance lists for about 30 minutes. I find everyone on my list, as do Tio Gael (Uncle Gael) and Caleb. Aubrey is the one that doesn’t find all of her wolves. “Who’s missing,” Tio Gael asks. “Sebastián Lobos, Zion Everly, and Kennedy and Blake Leblanc,” Aubrey relates. Looking up at Tio, she adds, “The four of them are best friends. Makes sense that they’re all missing together.” “Any idea where they would go,” Tio Gael asks, a bit exasperated. “We told them all to hang around here and they are the only ones that went off.” Amethyst, one of the kids of Jamal, Bella, and Gregory, is nearby and speaks up. “I overheard them saying that they wanted to practice some of the moves that we were practicing in warrior training this week.” Amethyst is a hybrid/witch wolf and is supposed to eventually take over as the Priestess of the Maiden coven here in Arcadia. However, she is much more in touch with her wolf than her sister Freya and I wonder if she really w

I don’t know who gives us the all clear or if we even get it to climb into my car and haul ass back to the city. It’s only 10 miles away, but with Kennedy’s intoxicating scent filling the car and our insatiable need to touch each other, I nearly pull the car over to take her on the side of the road five times before we even hit the city limits. Thank the goddess and all that is good and pro sex that my house is on this side of the city, close to the academy. It’s a matter of two minutes before I screech to a stop in my parking lot. Both of us are out of the car and Kennedy has me pinned against the hood of the car, kissing me like she needs me to breathe in seconds. I moan at her possessive touch, arching my back when one of her hands cups my breast in a firm hold. “Kennedy,” I moan when her lips leave mine and trail down my jawline to my neck, featherlight kisses a sensory juxtaposition to the kneading squeezes she has on my tits. “You smell so damn good, baby,” she whisp

I’ve never been so nervous in my entire life. This is the very first time that I will meet my parents. And with some of the decisions that I’ve made in my life lately, I’m wondering what they’re going to say to us. This could either go really, really well, or really, really badly. I look behind me, watching my mates watch me leave with Selene. All three of them are are standing, watching me with their hands wrapped around each other’s waists. There’s a happy glint to their eyes, but I can see that their happiness is tempered by their discontent that I’m not with them. I wish I was. I wish that I could have allowed myself to do it. I just, I don’t feel like I’m worthy. And that’s the thing that’s holding me back from being truly happy with my mates. I can be intimate with JoJo and Alexander for reasons outside of their powers. Alexander has literally been in my life since the day I was born. He has been my brother, my briend, my lover, my boyfriend, and then my mate. A

I launch a punch at Nate’s head, which he blocks. He does the same with the roundhouse punch that I send towards his face with the other hand, but I use his hold on my arm to gain leverage over him. I jump, wrapping my legs around him and using my momentum to pull him to the ground. With my legs wrapped around his arms, he can’t catch himself. He lands with a hard grunt and I begin wailing on him. Punch after punch lands on his temples, jaw, nose, and cheeks. Nathan manages to buck me off, but he’s definitely worse for wear. “What the fuck, Tomas?!” he says, spitting blood out of his mouth. “This is supposed to be sparring, not beat the shit out of each other!” Instead of responding, I roll to my feet, crouching in a defensive position. “Mas! Come on! Talk to me. It’s not as bad as you’re making it out to be,” Nathan growls out and I can see that his injuries are already starting to heal. That, combined with his words, piss me off. “Not as bad as I’m making it ou

“You look stunning, Fati! I’m so excited that you are finally taking your place as Luna,” JoJo gushes at me as she puts some finishing touches on my hair. “And I think taking Caleb as your beta is an excellent idea.”JoJo has been extremely excited about literally EVERYTHING that that has to do with my luna ceremony since Hermes brought her and Alexander back to Arcadia. Jacob has been visiting his parents for the past week. I think that part of JoJo’s exuberance has something to do with her anxiety about Jacob and not hearing from him since Selene took him to her realm.“Thanks, JoJo,” I say, trying desperately to match her excitement. I mean, this is my ascension ceremony. You would think that I would be excited about it. Instead, I feel kind of empty. Like I didn’t accomplish what I was supposed to before I became a luna. “I think that Caleb will be a good beta, as well. He’s compassionate, meticulous, and has a good head on his shoulders.”“He’s been searching for a pur
