Amelia’s POV*Four months later*Its been months since everything that has happened almost shattered our entire world. I’m now five and a half months pregnant and could give birth at any time. Everything has semi gone back to normal since after I talked to Xander when I was in the pack hospital. We had to keep him in the cells for a few weeks to ensure our safety, but since he’s been out, he’s been a huge help to the pack and to Adrian an I. we ended up making him a pack warrior since he has proven himself to us repeatedly. Sure, it gets hard on some days to see his face as my Ex-abuser, but we know for a fact that, that part of him is long gone. My father ended up finding a second chance mate within the pack. She’s a lovely hybrid like me who kind of just kept to herself. Casandra and Garrett just announce they are expecting twins at that, but the one most shocking to us was that Lucas is gay and ended being mated to Xander. I have no idea how he managed all that time to hide it a

Adrian’s POVI’m falling and come crashing down with a jolt I jerk awake I reach for my breathing tubs so I can remove them. When suddenly I’m stopped, I look around and notice its Lucas, he’s yelling something, but everything is too distorted for me to understand. They all worked as quickly as possible to calm me down and to remove the tubs. Once the tubs are removed, I take a deep gasp of air.“Amelia where’s Amelia” I ask.“She’s right here Adrian” Lucas says as he steps to the side.“The pups are they okay” I ask.“Adrian the pups are fine” Lucas says.“See look” Lucas says as he steps to the side.When he moves, I can finally see her. She looks so pale I go to stand to walk over her when I stumble back once I get to my feet, but before I hide the ground, I’m immediately caught I look over to see Garrett, Lucas on the other side.“We got you boss” Garrett says with a somber look on his face.I just look over and smile at him. They may be my Beta and Gamma, but they are also my chi

Adrian’s POV Waking up knowing my mate is pregnant is the best feeling in the world. I’ve known for a couple of weeks now. Being an Alpha wolf, we can sense our mate’s pregnancy early on way before our Luna’s can, so today I decided that heading into to the office early this morning would be a perfect idea. I would go in early, get off early and spend the day with her since we haven’t had much alone time lately with my duties as an alpha and running the pack and with her learning the Luna duties, we have both been swamped. I hurried on with my work going through file after file of businesses I owned in the city, going through all finances for the pack and paying bills that were needing to be paid. I was just about to walk out of the office to find my loving mate when I heard the loud boom that sounded like a bomb going off then the house started to rattle. I hurried out of the office and ran smack dab into Garrett and Lucas Casandra and Alexander not far behind them. I frantically

Weeks later everything and everyone was settling in nicely. My grandfather went back to his pack but checks in daily and our relationship has improved quite a bit. My father decided to move to our territory and got a little cabin close to the border. Cassandra and Garrett are doing great. Cassandra has been the best thing to happen to Garrett and he is low key obsessed with her. Adrian has been acting strange lately but every time I ask, he says I will find out soon enough. He’s been very clingy and cautious with everything I do lately. Other than that life has been great it has been quiet, maybe too quiet but I like it. My father trains me every day how to effectively use my magic and I have been getting exceptionally better. He says not too much longer on training, and I’ll be just as good or better than him. I decided that since today was such a beautiful day with winter finally leaving us and spring welcoming us, I would take a walk. When unexpectedly there is a loud boom. The

Eighteen for eighteen years I have looked for her. I have looked everywhere for my daughter with no luck until today. I woke up to the witches going crazy in our coven having no idea what they were going on about I went to ask one of the elders. Upon arriving at the elders, they tell me there was a huge power surge that shook the coven how I slept through it baffled me. Until I looked up once I looked up, I noticed a purple hue beaming in the sky it was already starting to fade but I intuitively knew who it was from my daughter I just knew it she had the same purple hue as me. I hurriedly went home to pack my bags to follow it when I was suddenly stopped by my sister Cassandra. “Alexander where do you think you're going” she asks. “Cassandra look outside it’s Amelia, I just know it is it’s my daughter” I tell her. “What do you mean its Amelia? How?” she asks. “I don’t know but she must have come into her powers to throw off a beacon like that” I tell her. “It's bee eig

I couldn’t believe that my granddaughter was still alive after all these years I have regretted it every single day after I banished my daughter. I never stopped looking for her until I felt our bond snap, I know that isn’t possible once you have banished someone from your pack but for some reason with her it didn't. I think that was the point I think the moon goddess wanted me to feel everything that my daughter did after I banished her and I did I felt her being abused for years and I kept looking for her I had no idea where she could have been, but I never gave up looking I wanted my daughter and granddaughter home. I didn’t care if my granddaughter was a hybrid if they were home that was all I needed. When I got the call from the Beta of the Full Blue Moon Pack claiming they had a young lady there that they believed was my granddaughter I couldn’t believe it. I was overjoyed. I immediately wanted to head over but was told to wait for Amelia to wake up. That’s her name Amelia. Wh

Chapter 16 I woke with a start all the events from the last couple of days dancing around in my head. I sit up frantically looking around the room. I’m still in the safe house then it hits me I slowly put my hand up to my left collarbone right below my neck and then to my right. They marked me then I remembered the attack on the pack. The pack I need to check if everyone is safe. I go to stand and head to the door when I feel myself start to sway my vision starts to go black when I feel myself start to fall towards the ground I was expecting the impact of the hard concrete floor when I feel a pair of strong arms wrap around me and his scent wraps around me stronger than before. “Angel” I rasp out. “Easy there babygirl” he says with a chuckle as he carries me back to the bed. “Angel the pack is is everyone ok” I ask him. “Lalani listen to me its been a very long last several days but I can securely tell you the pack is just fine” he tells me but I can tell that something is definit

The next morning, I woke with both my boys snuggled tightly next to me in the hospital bed. Trying not to wake them I slowly inched my way to the edge of the bed. Right before getting off, I felt strong arms wrap around me and knew instantly who it was. “Good morning” Angelino’s gruffy voice comes from behind me. I squirm trying to get out of his grip needing to use the restroom I squirm harder until I finally give up and turn to face him. “Angelino, I need to use the restroom” I tell him. Reluctantly he let me go and I hurried into the bathroom to do my business. After I was done using the bathroom, I decided I was ready to head home. I needed a shower and refused to use the hospital one. Once entering the hospital room, I seen Angelino and Angel waiting patiently for me. “Good morning boys” I tell them while walking back to the bed and climbing. “Good morning sweetheart” Angel says. “Good morning baby” Angelino says. “Would one of you boys like to find out when

It's been a few days since Angelino and Angel showed me the red room. I know we need to be marked and mated soon, with the Luna ceremony approaching fast, but I am terrified. I know Angel is experienced, and Angelino is not both of us still being virgins, but that isn't the problem. The problem is that I still don't know whether or not to have them both at the same time or separately. Everyone says at the same time it is easier because they can mark me at the same time. I want it to be fast, but I also want to enjoy it. Everyone says there is nothing like being with your mate for the first time and getting marked that's supposed to be magical, but I've also heard that it's painful and can make you extremely tired after getting marked. I don’t know what to do, the boys have been very patient with me making my decision, but I can tell they are getting worried due to the fact I have shown them what would happen if we don’t do it soon. I need some input from the outside. I wonder if my gr

After yesterday and last night events and nearly loosing Lalani I knew it was time we had the discussion about the mating and marking and the Luna ceremony Angel wanted to do it last night, but I insisted we waited until today after everything I knew she was exhausted and shook up, so we all decided to crawl into bed and go straight to sleep after of course we all ate, and Angel and I had a shower. I woke up earlier this morning than usual to see the damage and clean up all the broken glass in our room. We ended up sleeping in Angel room on the second floor together instead of our original room together till we could get the window fixed but little does Lalani know I have a surprise for her when she wakes up the whole room is going to be remodeled to accommodate all four of us especially a bigger new bed. As I was telling the contractor what needed to be done, I felt the tether from the link being pulled and immediately knew who it was. "Good morning, Angel" I tell him through the

After picking Lalani up and carried her out of the council meeting I could feel all the energy drain from her body as slept overtook her I knew this was going to be hard on her with her powers just not like this. She was so light in my arms and I couldn't help myself leaning over and taking in her scent she was so intoxicating and I couldn't wait to get home and mark and mate her after getting into the SUV I could see the relief on everyone's face as we got ready to head out we all knew what would happen if this didn't go as planned and I'm so glad that it did I couldn't imagine anything happening to Lalani after I just barely got her and she accepted me. Now just to figure out how this is going to work I definitely need to talk to Angelino after loading into the car I decided that we should have this conversation while Lalani is sleeping after placing her on the seat between me and Angelino while Angelino dad sat in the back with us while my dad drove while Lalani's dad was in the p

I'm not sure what I expected walking into the rickety old building that looks like a strong wind would blow the building down but the minute we walked in it was shockingly beautiful inside with its black silk walks and gothic cottage core design beautiful antics displayed all over the walls and in cases all over the room it was definitely quite different from the building on the outside. Slowly walking in hand in hand with Angelino and Angel we nervously head to the waiting room with our dads waiting for head councilman Mikeal to call our names I start to feel myself getting overwhelmed by emotions and the energy of this place that I didn't realize that my powers started seeping through until Angelino said something and caught my attention. "Are you okay my love" Angelino says. "MmHmm" Is all I managed to get out. "What is it baby" Angel says to me. I sighed not know what to say before I answered, "I'm just nervous what if they don't allow it, I mean I showed you all what wo

Maren turns to Oakley. “Now you.”Oakley stiffens. “Me?”“Yes. Sit.”He looks at Colton like he’s being betrayed. “You said I didn’t have to!”Colton shrugs. “I never said that.”“You implied it!”“I did not.”Oakley groans dramatically but drags himself to the chair like he’s being marched to his doom.Maren sits across from him. “Relax.”“I am relaxed,” he says, sitting ramrod straight.“You look like a terrified squirrel.”Colton coughs to hide a laugh.Oakley glares at him. “I’m not scared.”Maren pats his knee. “Of course not, dear.”He jumps like she shocked him.I bite my lip to keep from laughing.Maren checks his pulse — he flinches — and then nods. “You’re healthy. Anxious, but healthy.”“I’m not anxious,” he says immediately.“You’re vibrating,” she replies.Colton leans in. “He does that.”Oakley throws his hands up. “I hate this place.”Maren pats his cheek. “You’ll survive.”Maren turns to Colton. “You.”Colton raises an eyebrow. “Me?”“Yes. Sit.”

When we reach the small wooden cottage nestled between two large oaks, I stop.It’s… cute.Warm. Inviting. Covered in vines and flowers.Nothing like the sterile, cold infirmary I grew up with.Colton turns to me. “Ready?”I nod, even though I’m not.Oakley squeezes my shoulder gently. “We’ll be right here.”And for the first time in a long time…I believe him.The healer’s cottage sits tucked between two massive oaks, sunlight filtering through the leaves and scattering across the roof like gold dust. It looks… peaceful. Too peaceful. Like something out of a storybook.I stop a few feet from the door.Colton notices immediately. “We can turn back if you want.”I shake my head quickly. “No. I’m fine.”Oakley, walking beside me, leans in. “You don’t have to be fine. You just have to be here.”I swallow hard and nod.He’s trying to sound casual, but I can feel the tension rolling off him. He’s new here too. He moved in with me — or rather, because of me — and even though

The kitchen still smells like pancakes and warm butter when I push my empty plate away. Oakley is licking syrup off his thumb like a child, and Colton is pretending not to notice. The morning sunlight spills across the table, soft and golden, catching on the edges of the dishes.For a moment, everything feels… normal.Too normal.I’m not used to normal.Colton clears his throat — a quiet, controlled sound that snaps my attention to him instantly. He’s leaning against the counter, arms crossed, posture relaxed but eyes sharp. That Alpha energy radiates off him even when he’s trying to be gentle.“We should go over the plan for today,” he says.My stomach tightens.Plans. Schedules. Expectations.Those never meant anything good in my old pack.I sit a little straighter without meaning to.Oakley groans dramatically. “Here we go. The Alpha Agenda.”Colton shoots him a look. “It’s not an agenda.”“It’s absolutely an agenda,” Oakley mutters.I try to smile, but my fingers curl

The bathroom is still warm when I step out, steam curling around my ankles like fog. My hair drips down my back, the ends soaking into the collar of the shirt I pulled on. It’s soft, oversized, and definitely not mine — Oakley shoved it into my hands last night when I was too shaken to argue.It smells faintly like him.I try not to think about that.The hallway is quiet, but the scent of breakfast drifts toward me — sweet, warm, comforting. Something buttery. Something sugary. Something that makes my stomach twist in a way I’m not used to.No one has ever made me breakfast before.Not for me. Not because they wanted to. Not because they cared.I take a slow breath and walk toward the kitchen.The moment I step into the doorway, I stop.Colton is at the stove, flipping pancakes with a focus that looks almost… intense. Oakley is whisking eggs, humming under his breath, magic flickering faintly around his fingers like sparks he’s not paying attention to.They look up at the sam

The shower starts down the hall — a soft rush of water, steady and rhythmic. The sound settles something in me. She’s awake. She’s safe. She’s breathing.Oakley stretches like a cat, rubbing sleep from his eyes. “Okay, Alpha Broody, let’s make breakfast before she comes out and realizes we’re both disasters.”I huff a quiet laugh. “You’re the disaster.”“Please,” he says, already heading toward the kitchen. “I’m delightful.”I follow him, the tension in my shoulders easing with each step. The kitchen is warm, sunlight spilling across the counters. It smells like coffee and quiet mornings — something I haven’t had in a long time.Oakley pulls out eggs, bacon, and pancake mix. “She likes sweet things in the morning.”I blink. “How do you know that?”He freezes for half a second — barely noticeable, but I catch it.Then he shrugs. “I pay attention.”I narrow my eyes. “Oakley.”He cracks an egg a little too hard. “What?”“Talk.”He sighs dramatically. “Can’t a man make breakfa

Kieara falls asleep slowly.Not peacefully. Not easily. But eventually, her breathing evens out, her body loosens, and the tension in her shoulders melts just enough for her to rest.Oakley is curled at the foot of the bed, magic humming softly around him like a protective shield. He’s half-asleep already, head tucked into his arms, exhaustion pulling him under.But me?I don’t move.I don’t blink.I don’t sleep.I sit in the chair beside her bed, elbows on my knees, hands clasped, watching the rise and fall of her chest like it’s the only thing anchoring me to the earth.My wolf lies just beneath my skin, restless and alert. Stay awake, he growls softly. Watch her.“I’m not going anywhere,” I whisper.He settles, but only barely.The room is dim, lit only by the soft glow of the lamp. Shadows stretch across the walls, but none of them feel threatening now. Not with me here. Not with Oakley’s magic humming. Not with her wolf curled protectively inside her.Still, every tim
