Ares’ povMan, did he take the reunion seriously. For someone who had just returned from a serious battle, you would think he would have preferred to rest or something. Jason reunited with me into the night. Over and over again, until we both fell asleep too exhausted to continue. Not that I’m complaining about it, but you know.The next morning came, but we were too tired still sleeping in from our previous night’s exercise. We trusted that one of the pack’s caretakers would take care of Adriana for us. I woke up to his handsome face beside me. I explored every inch of his face and body with my eyes and hands. Studying his body.“Hey, beautiful.” Jason whispered, as he saw me awake. “I can feel your eyes all over my body. If you still want more, all you gotta do is ask, and I’ll give you more.” he gave me a lazy smile.“Shut up,” I laughed. “How do you still have the energy for more?” Is he trying to kill me? I might heal quickly, but I don’t think I have the energy to continue. “It

Ares’ pov “Hello, sir. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve wanted to thank you for saving my life since I heard you were still alive, but I heard you needed time to recover after the ordeal you went through,” I said slowly. “I need no time to recover. I only wished to see you,” he said. “You look just like your mother. It’s wonderful to see again after so many years really.” “It’s all thanks to you.” I said. “If I may ask, what really happened that night, after you left?” when I had asked mum, she had told me, she never saw him return. “Ah, I remember it just like it was yesterday.” he started. “The kingdom stood on the precipice of destruction, its once glorious walls now marred by the scars of war. After leaving you both behind, I went to look for your parents. I held my sword tightly, slaying anything that came my way. The clash of steel against steel, echoed about the walls. I could hear snarling and growling in the distance as the others fought in their true form.`` We all li

Jason’s pov“I plan to meet with Luke later and explain things to him,” I said to Ares as I got ready to go to my home office. I looked over to watch her as I finished getting ready. She looked absolutely perfect.“That’s fine with me,” she replied, kissing my cheek. “I trust all of your decisions.” I smiled and gave her a deep kiss before leaving the room. I called Luke as I headed to the office.I’ve explained to Luke what our plan is, so today Ares and I plan to announce it to the pack. We plan to tell them the whole truth. After hanging out with our daughter, we gathered the entire pack in the hall.We waited until everyone was present, including the elders, which I had stayed at the back with, Felix, Hayley, and the guards on duty. Lyla said it would be safe. We waited until everyone was settled in before I started addressing them.“Good evening everyone,” I said to the crowd. “Your Luna and I have a lot to tell you this evening. Those of you that went to fight with us against M

Jason’s PovAs the others worked on the castle, I worked alone on the house. I had to tear down some worn out parts and replace them. Cole helped a lot by helping me send the things I ordered down to the pack.It took a lot of time, but I was finally happy with the result. All that was left now was to show it to her. I had already moved our things and Adriana’s to the house before I went to the office to get her. I walked in to find her bent over seriously looking over documents. She had taken it upon herself to take care of the pack work while we worked on the castle. Killian had been kind enough to send some people over, but knowing him, It’s definitely not from the kindness of his heart. He would want something in return. Maybe not now, but I know he will.When he saw Felix though, I saw him smile for the time. A real genuine smile. They chatted and caught up like old friends. He looked more human that day. Cain helped too, and so did James, who got closer to me as we worked toget

Ares’ pov“Wait, what?” I must have misheard him. There’s no way he said I’m pregnant. His face falls at my question.“You don’t want it?” he asked. I could see the hurt on his face. I didn’t mean to cause that. Oh my god, I’m really pregnant!“I’m pregnant!” I said this time with a smile. “We are having a baby.” he nodded, but was still reluctant to smile. My earlier reaction must still be rubbing him the wrong way.“Do you want this baby with me?” he asked again. I could tell from the mate bond that he was a little hesitant to hear my answer. “I know you said you wanted to wait for a year or two first.”“Of course I want this baby with you,” I said, smiling. “I just can’t believe I’m really pregnant. I was trying so hard. I didn’t want to put my hopes up. I saw your reaction, and even felt your emotions when we did the test last time.” I explained to him.“We are having a baby,” he said this time with a smile. I moved closer to him and he pulled me into his chest. “We are having a b
