I hadn't been hearing a word James had been saying as I stared at Kieran as he smiled at me, his thumbs rubbing circles across the tops of my knuckles as he held my hands.I was brought back to reality when James announced it was time to recite our vows.I grinned as Alina brought up Willow who reached for her father as soon as she was within arms reach."Da!" She yelled smiling as he took her.I reached around her neck where she held our rings on her necklace.I chuckled when she licked my face as I drew back."Mama!" She yelled.I smiled widely at her words as everyone chuckled."I love you too baby girl." I said as she reached for me and I took her in my arms.I smiled as Kieran nodded his head in defeat.I chuckled as I placed my ring in his hand and he took it, twirling it in his fingers as he stared down at the small band and it grew quiet with anticipation."Charlotte Marie Saxon, I love you with my whole heart. From the day I saw you, I knew you would be my life from that mome
I don't even remember how long I was punching her until Kieran's familiar arms were peeling me off of her, the scent of blood surrounding me, my hands and wrist spattered with liquid crimson that only fueled me.I knew he only did it because our guest were making their way towards the dining area and a crowd was forming.I was growling as I stared down at her unconscious form, my wolf fighting me, wanting to show herself and finish the job."Alina please entertain our guest while I get Charlotte cleaned up. Leah and Ez, take her to the holding cells beneath the gym." Kieran ordered before anyone could even think and I was in his grip and in our room in a second where I was battling my wolf internally and still struggled to calm down my breathing.I could hear Kieran's voice as he shouted my name, trying to get my attention, but I still saw red.It wasn't until he pinned my arms above my head, and growled in my face, his eyes turning to that of his wolf's as he showed himself to me unt
I chuckled as I danced with Alina and Leah danced with Katrina to a heady beat that burst through the territory's space, bouncing off the trees.Alina keeps trying to feed me "shots " which I gracefully keep throwing over my shoulder, hoping I haven't hit anyone, but pretty sure I have and I don't understand how Alina is acting tipsy when she hasn't had a single drink.I cringed internally when she handed me yet another of what she thought was a shot but was really watered down apple juice and she took hers as she threw her head back. I quickly threw mine over my shoulder, cursing when I heard someone's voice let out an expletive of their own.I tensed when I saw the familiar rift of short cropped red hair.Kieran was in front of me in a second, his large frame covering my front as he stared down at the man as their heads touched.I peered around Kieran, watching in awe as the man bared his neck in submission, acknowledging Kieran's dominance."I mean no harm to you or your family. I
After dancing and eating and drinking for what felt like forever, the night was finally winding down around midnight as our last guest from out of town left, leaving just our pack members who still buzzed with excitement.I smiled as I held a sleeping Willow as I watched Kieran ate with Ezra, trying to outdo each other in who could eat the most slices.I smiled as I saw Alina come forward after getting of the phone."That was the pilot, the jet is ready. " she said grinning.I was so tired I barely remembered that we were going on our honeymoon. After saying our goodbyes I found myself in the back of a car with Kieran who held Willow as she slept, and I must've followed her because when I woke up we were landing.I gripped Kieran's arm as he chuckled.I could smell humans, and as if on cue a woman walked towards us. I knew she was the flight attendant because of how she wore a white button down that was tucked into a pencil skirt. I also knew she was a human because of how she was inf
Kieran circled me quietly, like a shark in the water as it stalks its prey."Your heat has started Mrs. Lupin." He whispered in my ear. His voice alone sent shivers of want down my spine and had me yearning to feel his cool touch against my warm flesh.I shivered as his fingers brushed my arm as he took Willow from my arms and I watched as she payed her head on Kieran's shoulder as she closed her eyes."Kieran you know what will happen if we do this." I said gesturing to Willow who was quickly falling asleep in her father's arms.m, much to my amazement because she hardly ever does that for me.Kieran nodded with a smile.I definitely wanted more pups, but was now the best time? Bran's sister Clara was in our custody, Bran was on our side. And things were good now. We were happy. The kids would be close in age and would be able to bond more.My face must've given away my answer because Kieran flashed me a devilish grin that had my insides fluttering under his look.Kieran turned on his
I was finally feeling better after a week so Kieran extended our vacation another week since we had spent majority of it in the bungalow , on our final day of our vacation Kieran decided it would be a good idea for us to go hiking as a family and I was so excited to see some of the wildlife and Willow absolutely loved butterflies and they were plentiful on the island.The only part Kieran wasn't excited for was that my heat wasn't only enticing to him, but human males were drawn to me and despite the rings on my fingers would still try to flirt or hit on me which I found absolutely amusing because I could hear how fast their hearts were beating and smell the anxiety coming off of them, and when Kieran introduced himself as my husband, it immediately turned to jealousy and anger.I was currently in the middle of a bath with Willow who decided her breakfast of scrambled eggs belonged in her hair.I smiled as she sat in my lap in the tub, playing with the rubber shark she had picked out
I wiped my face, not caring what I looked like as I walked into the house, my slightly protruding belly hidden by the hoodie I wore.I walked into the living room quietly, where my mother lay on the ground, still holding my father's hand as she wept with her face in the crook of his neck.Everyone turned as I entered.I stood at the edge of the living room as I stared down at my father's lifeless body as it lay under a blood stained sheet. I didn't understand how this happened."What happened?" I asked quietly to Elise."Bran is dead, so his title would usually go to his first born, but since he doesn't have a pup it went to the next sibling and-"Clara is Alpha. She can shift." I said putting it together."Your father went to take her some water and food and she shifted for the first time. She was uncontrolled, wild, the power a first shift gives you is brief, but if aimed at someone other than an another alpha, it can be murderous if accidentally provoked. Clara...she wanted to kill
I gave birth to James and Eric Lupin thirteen hours after reading the letter. I named them after both their grandfathers, strong and respectable men. They both took Kieran's dark locks, and James having Kieran's hazel eyes, but Eric having stark blue eyes just as his sister, myself, and his grandfather after who he was named.I wasted no time in getting back into shape, two weeks after having the twins I was up and training hard as ever.I took in a breath as I threw my last punch at the bag that hung on the tree outside our house, the bag flying off the chain and landing in the dirt feet from me.I wanted to hurt that bitch so bad that it infuriated me every time I trained. Especially since the council would be visiting us at any moment to organize the Challenge.I turned, walking inside with my gloves still on, stopping when I saw Kieran standing, eyes blazing as he stared at the kitchen were James and Elise sat with my mother who both held their grandsons as James spoke.I turne
