Amelie
"Umm… You, miss Amelie. I can smell the Alpha on you, and you have the Alpha's mark now" He gestures his head toward my mate mark.
Crap, I forgot, since we are still at the Ashwood Pack. Here I'm the Alpha's daughter, but to the Druit Guard, I am their Alpha's mate and Luna. "Sorry Benjamin, I'm not used to it yet. You don't have to call me Luna while at Ashwood."
His eyes widen, and a spark of fear shows on his face, "I'm sorry, Luna, I can't do that. I value my life, and Alpha Gideon would not allow it."
He's not wrong, and I cannot override an Alpha order, "I understand, but please be mindful when Luna Celeste is around also to use my first name to lessen the confusion. The same you do with my father and Gideon." I always hated all the titles but knew they were necessary to keep order.
"Yes, Luna, do you and Miss Becky need assistance?" He is standing at attention

Chapter 31: True Family History Amelie "Come in, kiddo!" I didn't even have a chance to knock. Dad knew I was at the door. I open the door and see him and Celeste sitting on one of the sofas with books and scrolls on the coffee table in front of them. "Have a seat. We have lots to go over." Dad gestures me to set in the sofa across for him and Celeste. This seems more serious than what I thought, "Are we going to need the bourbon again?" Dad laughs, "It is serious but not in the same way. Come on, sit." "OK, what's with all the books and scrolls?" I take a seat on the sofa. Dad unrolls one of the scrolls. I look at it, and I see some names I recognize. Then I see mine, and I have two lines coming from my name, one going to Tate with an X through his name and one going to Gideon. It's a family tree—a really old one. "As you can see, it's our family tree. I want you to look carefully at al

Chapter 32: True Family History Pt.2 Amelie "Dad, are we… part elf?" I lean in, waiting for an answer. Dad laughs, "No, we are as pure werewolf as you can get. Raphael was sent to America by the moon goddess through the prophecy of the elves. He was also instructed to help the native packs and to settle our pack where we are now. The moon goddess herself directly controls our bloodline. Look again at all the Alpha's daughters before you. Do you see anything else?" He pushes the scroll closer to me. I look at every ancestor analyzing. "One thing I see is there is never more than three children from the Alpha. All the daughters became Lunas. Oh! I recognize the pack names! These are the strongest packs in those states! Wait, Hope? She's in Texas. The Golf Cost Pack is the strongest there?" I was worried about my little sister. I did not want her to be a target. "They have been on the decline since the Alp

Chapter 33: The First of Our Kind Gideon We step into the bedroom. “Amelie, what’s going on?” She’s pacing and biting her thumb, “I think you might want to sit down.” I sit on the bed, “So are you going to tell me what’s going on or chew your thumb off?” She turns and gives me her one-eyebrow raise, “I just learned some critical information today. Dad said if you have any questions, I can’t answer; he will. He expects you will want to talk to him tomorrow.” She’s talking so fast, and her pacing quickens. I stand up and grab her shoulder to stop her and make her look at me. “Amelie, tell me what the hell is going on!” She looks at me wide-eyed. She blurts out, “the moon goddess is messing with your bloodline!” “Please make sense. You sound crazy right now.” I sit down on the bed and set her next to me. “Take a deep breath and start from the beginning.” “I am a direct desce

Chapter 34: The Alpha in Charge Gideon “I don’t have all the answers to your questions. But I can give you what I do know.” I stand up and stretch a bit. I stand in front of Amelie and start with what I know, “I know my family is incredibly old and came to the US with the Ashwood pack. I know my great-grandfather created the current structure we have now with the Delta Force. My family has always allied with the Ashwoods and been the vice-head of the Alpha council. That’s all the facts I know. However, if what you tell is true about your lineage, I am honored that the goddess has chosen me and my bloodline to be part of direct influence. That means my descendants and pack have a strong future.” Amelie looks up at me and just blinks her eyes a few times, and her mouth drops open. “I ah… didn’t think about it like that. To tell you the truth, I feel like it’s divine manipulation. Like I’m just a tool, a walking incubator

Chapter 35: Alpha to Alpha Gideon "Come in, Alpha Gideon." I didn't even knock yet. I open the door and enter Alpha John's office. He has old books and scrolls all over the coffee table. "Amelie and I had a lot to talk about last night. I was hoping to get more detail from you today. My men are working on James' tracking training in the woods today. So, we should have plenty of time. I sit on one of the sofas. John sit's across from me, "Before we get started, I have something to say. I am honored that the goddess chose you to be mated with Amelie. She deserves to be happy, and I am trusting you with that happiness. With all this family tree and bloodline crap, it's easy to lose sight of other things and put your children's happiness. My children carry a heavy burden, and so do their mates. Amelie has always had it the hardest. I knew people would talk behind my back about having a

Chapter 36: Alpha to Alpha P.2 Gideon "Maybe it wasn't Tate but Karen. Amelie said the emotional and physical abuse and control got worse once she moved in with them. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find too much about her. She is in her early to mid-fifties. Would you or your father have crossed paths with her?" I look at John, hoping he has something. "If I did, Amelie would never have been in that situation, to begin with. I would have locked Amelie up and never allowed harm to come to her." I can tell he blames himself for everything she's been through. "I think she was your second chance mate, but you are her destined mate. I know this sounds insensitive, but you would not have your daughters if Amelie was not your second chance. I do believe Amelie was meant to help you raise them. Not many wolves know what it feels like to have stepparents." "I hope you can accept them

Chapter 37: Heat Amelie It's so hot! I kick off the blanket. Gideon is still asleep. I try to be as quiet as possible and move to a cool spot on the bed, flip my pillow, and try to get back to sleep. Nope! Burning up! Do I have a fever? I feel fine; I'm just so hot. I get up as quietly as possible and go into the bathroom. I splash some cold water on my face, but it doesn't help. I turn on the shower and undress. I get under the cold water, and it feels better, but I'm still so hot. I get out of the shower and grab a towel. As I'm grabbing a towel, I look at myself in the mirror. I look back again, and I saw my eyes were flashing between their usual dark grey to Inari's topaz yellow. Then as I walk closer to the mirror to get a better look, they turn solid topaz, and I can feel I don't have control of my own body. Inari is in control. "Inari, what's going on?" I'm frantic. I have no idea if this

Chapter 38: Love or Bond Amelie "Am, is this the first time you have gone into heat?" I feel a bit of possessiveness coming from Gideon. It's like he wants this experience only ever to be his. "I think so. I thought I had before, but after experiencing this, I know I didn't before." I push my feelings of love and security through the bond. Gideon hums when he feels my emotions, "These two days will be intense. We will swap back and forth with our wolves and continue to solidify our bond." Gideon's hands slowly trail down my back. I feel him push his emotions through the bond. The rush overtakes me. It's not a feeling of lust or desire but need and longing. I cup his face in my hands, "You are the greatest gift I could ever receive." I pull him to my lips. It's different than any kiss we have shared before. It's like a greeting in a way. As if we are embracing for the first time. I guess, in a sense, we ar
