I walk into my office and find Dad already there waiting for me, I look at the clock and itโs 7:55am and I shake my head, he was always like this, early for everything, except for Momma, but I guess he was early for her too, itโs the one story he doesnโt like about there story, she was even younger than he thought, but thatโs his story not mine. I sit at my desk and look at him as I sip my coffee, โso where to start?โHe nods, โall the financials are done for the month, the new housing is 90% complete on the eastern border and there are only a few outstanding items that need your immediate attention, the nightclub sale of our ยฝ and there are about 20 families asking for our pack to absorb them from the packs that were dismantled due to their Alphaโs involvement in the child abduction ring. I look at the sale proposal for the club and bite my lower lip, โIโll need to speak with Alpha Christov, see what he wants to do with this, if he wants to keep it or if we can sell it outright,โ I
Waking up to the smell of cooking is odd, then I remember Momma is here, by the time I got home last night, everyone was sleeping. I get up take a quick shower, get dressed and head for the kitchen. I walk in and Momma is sitting there with Beta Charles, his mate Catherine and Dimitri who looks like heโs 10 and grounded. I chuckle inwardly at him and head for the coffee, โGood morning, everyone,โ I say with all the excitement that I still feel from last night.I sit at the table and Momma scoops me up eggs, and a plate of meat and lays in front of me, she smiles, โGood morning, you had a good evening?โ She eyes my neck, and a small frown appears on her face.I bite a piece of sausage and nod, โI did, and you missed a good movie, your boyfriend was very upset that you left him,โ I chuckle and Dimitri grunts. I arch a brow at him, and he just shakes his head. She sips her coffee, โso you watched a movie with her entire family, they are close and as far as my boyfriend,โ she smiles,
I walk inside her room and my mouth opens to speak as I look at her, her face is familiar, like Iโve seen it before but not really. โHi, Iโm Alpha Abigail, this is my pack youโre in right now, are you doing okay?โThe girl looks at me and smiles and I tilt my head looking at her, โyes, everyone is very nice here, except I miss Terry,โ she sniffles.I blink my eyes at her, โTerry, whoโs Terry?โShe bows her head, โAlpha Terrence, he says we are mates and that I am to be the Luna of his pack,โ she shrugs, โbut heโs gone and there is no pack anymore.โ She looks up at me from her bed, โwhatโs going to happen to me now, Iโm an orphan, heโs had me in his home since I was just a little girl, my family was killed in a rogue attack and I was brought to him.โI look at her, โdo you remember where you are from?โShe shakes her head and stands and my eyes widen as I look at her, sheโs a few inches taller then me and sheโs not wearing shoes, โI remember being on an airplane and people were talkin
Dimitri and I stand watching our mother walk up the stairs and to her room, sheโs torn up over what happened so many years ago and itโs my fault, I should have remembered to remove the picture but too much was going on and she arrived a day earlier than expected.Dimitri looks at me, โIโm going to the dungeon, Iโm in no mood to play right now, so that bitch better come clean with something,โ I nod and walk with him. We enter the dungeon and find Sasha sitting on the wooden bench in the room. We enter it and she turns her head and glares at us, "WHAT," she screams. I walk over and pull her up off the cot and slam her into the wall, "who else was with you," I snarl.She blinks at me, "I told you already, well I told him," her eyes dart to Dimitri. I shake my head, "who else, there was someone else there, I would know Sebastian and Terrence's voices," I tighten my hold around her neck, "tell me because I have no patients today and no use for you at all."Tears flow out of her eyes,
Getting home late after cooking and an extremely hot make out session with Christov, I fell into bed and slept peacefully. I wake up and run to training with the warriors, I got a few strange looks but didnโt think much of it until I got home and Nonna giggles at me, โyou may want to have him lower those love bites a bit,โ she wiggles her brows at me.I head upstairs and into my ensuite and look into the mirror and groan, but I canโt fight the smile that curls on my lips at the memory of when he did this โlove bite,โ my cheeks turn red as I step into the shower. I get dressed and head for my office, I have so much to do today and just thinking about planning my own home is thrilling. I pull up my e-mails and almost jump out of my own skin when I see several potential buyers for the nightclub. I click on them until I see that one is from Midnight pack, my cousin Michael is interested in the nightclub? I pick up the phone on my desk and call, he answers on the 2nd ring.โMidnight p
I never thought I would be this happy but having Abigail as my mate has done it for me. When she cooked last night, I watched her every move, her laughter filling the kitchen as we talked about our future was everything I could have hoped for. We discussed so much, from what she wanted our home to look like to the 2 children we will have. I was a bit disappointed that she only said 2, we both come from large families and I know having many siblings was great growing up, but itโs her body that will endure the growth and pains of having them, so Iโll be happy with as many as she allows. When she left late last night and promised to come back today and cook dinner, I was over the moon happy, my mate accepted me whole heartedly and I couldnโt ask for more. When I saw Momma up and cooking breakfast this morning, I was glad she didnโt go back into her mourning for Elza, sheโs out there somewhere and we all keep hope in our hearts in finding her. When I told her that Abigail will cook
I was heading out the front door when Ava shouted from the staircase, running at me, "Abi wait, I'm coming with." I stopped and looked at her, "Ava I'm heading to Iron Claw to cook dinner for everyone, are you sure you want to come?"She smiled at me as unshed tears glistened in her eyes, "Yes, he called me and said he misses me and that he doesn't care what his Momma said," she took at breath, "he wants me Abi."I threw my arm around her shoulder, "then letโs go prove to Momma Bear that the two of us can take care of her unruly cubs." She giggled and we headed to my car. That was 2 weeks ago, and we have spent every evening there since and enjoy our time with Momma Bear and of course our men.Today is my 21st birthday, not that it's a big deal, but it is also the full moon and that is a very big deal to me this time, tonight I plan to lose myself to my mate and mark him, he doesn't know that but I do. It seems to be getting harder and harder to leave him every evening when I have
Today my mate will be coming home with me after her party to spend the full moon here. Momma pushed me out of my own room while she and Beta Catherine did whatever they thought was needed to make Abigail feel more like she was home. I chuckle inwardly, they donโt really know her the way I do, but if they want to make our bedroom a bit more girly and it makes them feel better, Iโll let them have at it.When we arrived and Tyler ran to Momma with a handful of wilted flowers I could feel her joy, sheโs always loved children, thatโs why she had so many of us, I guess she and Luna Charlie have lots in common. She scooped him up and walked away with him laughing. When I saw my mate standing there wearing a short tie dye coverup, bearing her long legs sexily with no shoes, my heart raced. Holding her in my arms and stealing a sweet kiss from her is my favorite part of my day and starting tomorrow morning, it will be the start of each day. We were having a great time, playing in the water
I stare into the most beautiful face Iโve ever seen, sky blue eyes blink open, as little pink lips part with a toothless yawn. I blink back my tears and smile down at our perfect little bundle. Christovโs large hand cradles the mop of black curls that adorn his perfect head, he whispers, โAlexader fits him Momma, what do you think?โA tear falls down my cheek as I look at our son, โAlexander is perfect, Daddy.โChristov eyes dart to mine and he smiles wide, โyou did so good little dove, so very good.โI nod, โyea, heโs perfect in every way isnโt he, I donโt think Iโve seen a more handsome boy.โHe sits down on the bed and puts his arm around me, kissing my temple, โhe looks like you thatโs why.โI laugh, โhe looks just like his Daddy and I think your pretty perfect.โA soft knock hits the door, and I know our quiet moment is over, I look up at him, โthere all out there arenโt they?โHe nods and smirks, โyea, and I think the hospital wants them all gone, they are taking up all of the
Today is Tyler's 6th birthday, he's more than excited for his party, which is being held at our house, which I didn't fully understand why, until this morning. My Momma arrived at 7am and fully charged and ready to be a grandmother. I woke up to the smell of her cooking and nearly fell on my face getting out of bed, Abigail had her leg wrapped mine and wouldn't let go. She smiled at me as I glared at her, "surprise," she said hesitantly. I lay back down and pulled her into me, well as close as her huge baby bump allows and she giggled, "Dimitri picked her up an hour ago at the airport," she says softly to me.I shake my head, "nice, so she is Tyler's big gift, or the little man knew she was coming and that is why he is so excited to have his party here," I cock a brow at her.She pouts, "you knew she was going to be here for our pup so she came a few days early," she pushes at my side for me to get up and I know she has to use the ensuite. I move and help her stand and watch as s
Iโm staring at Christov when it hits me, โbaby, you never told me what happened to your face?โHe looks at me confused, โthe scare in my eyebrow? That happened when I was a pup, my brother IvanโฆโI shake my head, โno, the claw marks, the ones I healed, how did it happen?โI watch as he visibly gulps and stands up coming over to me, he pulls me out of my chair and sits in it, placing me on his lap, โnow before you react, let me just say this, she was so sorry, seconds afterwards.โI arch a brow at him, โshe? Who is she?โ I'll kill the she-wolf that thought it was fine to hurt him.His arms tighten around my waste, โLuna Charlie, she was upset over the video andโฆโI growl, โare you telling me that my Momma attacked you.โHe looks me in the eye, โAbi, she was so hurt and angry and yes she did, but she wanted to heal me seconds later, but Braddock stopped her and I donโt blame him or her, in her mind I had done the unspeakable to you and I can understand it more today than I did then.โ
When we announced to the pack that their will be a winter solstice festival, which will help in creating our solidarity, the Iron Claw members were excited, they had never experienced anything like it and truth be told neither had I. As I sat at my desk I looked at Abigail, her tongue sticking out of the side of her mouth as she concentrated on the financial report, itโs a huge undertaking now that our pack is so big, but I canโt help admire just how smart and beautiful my mate is. I finish up with all the new alliance contracts that will be sent out, now that we have combined both packs, all our alliances need to sign contracts again and it is all to their benefit, since we are now the largest pack.Gamma Dimitri and Gamma Gabe moved into their floors here, but our Betaโs have stayed in the original pack houses, keeping someone of higher rank closer where the pack members are was a decision we both agreed upon. We havenโt told our pack members about their heir yet, Abigail wants t
Luna Lana was over the moon about having a grandpup, her first and I canโt help but rub my ear as her squeal is still ringing it. We sit at the island in the kitchen, yes still naked and Christov eyes me up. I giggle, โsee something you like Alpha?โHis growl is playful as I move back against the farmers sink to give him a full view, he moves off his stool and stalks me like prey, his eyes swirling with undeniable lust when a hard bang hits the front door. His head snaps towards it as if he is going to kill whoever is on the other side and I chuckle. He grabs me by the waist and kisses me quickly and then moves towards the foyer. I scream, โChristov, clothes!โHe laughs, โweโre werewolves, people see us this way all the time.โI arch a brow to him, โreally, you walk around with my lollypop at full attention around the pack?โHe looks down at himself and I grab his hand, โcome on, we need to get something to cover you up.โ I yell out as we hit the stairs, โgive us a minute.โ I h
When he picked up me up I didnโt know how to tell him, I just found out Iโm pregnant and we hadnโt really discussed when we wanted to have a pup, but I was sure he didnโt want one now, not when we are so newly marked and mated. Not to mention that we still have so much work to do with combining the two packs, making it all work right. I need time to get it straight in my own head first, really know what I want to do with this. When he pulled up to our home, I had no idea it would be ready, but to see what he had done, to see all our furniture, arranged just as I wanted in the living room and the painting, oh my baby has talent. I couldnโt believe he had done a painting of our union, and it is beyond anyoneโs imagination. The falls, the wildflowers and the princess carriage, me in my mommaโs dress and him in his tuxedo, but what captured me the most, the golden dragon in the distance with a small boy riding it and the black wolf that sits on top of the carriage holding the reins in
To say Iโm excited is an understatement, weโve worked tirelessly all day moving furniture in to our new home, Abigail has no idea that the house is ready and surprisingly enough no one has let it slip. The news that our Beta couple is with pup and the shit storm that Gabe has caused in the Crescent Moon pack house has kept her far away. We made one decision about our new home, that both Gammaโs will move in immediately to this one, yea, Braddock isnโt so keen of having Gabe around all the time now since Teresa has just turned 14 and heโs 26. They will move in tomorrow though, tonight it is just my little dove and myself, yea, we are going to be busy tonight for sure.Abigail had picked out every bit of furniture a month ago, so having it all delivered yesterday and today was easy enough, the only thing that I didnโt do was set up the kitchen or stock it. I made sure we had water, juice and stuff for breakfast and of course, there is a bottle of Champagne in every room on ice and j
Itโs been a couple of weeks and now the dust has finally settled from our union and the council being here. Itโs Sunday and as promised we are heading to dinner and movie night with my family. I canโt lie and say I donโt miss the day to day chaos that is my family, but I do appreciate it more when I have some control of the amount I receive. Christov chuckles as he opens the door to the foyer, โready for it, because they know weโre here.โHe opens the door and to our surprise only Tyler is there, and he is sitting on the bottom step, with his little fists under his chin. We walk inside and he doesnโt even look at us, I walk towards him and kneel in front of him, โhey bud, you okay,โ I muss his hair, and he shakes his head and scoots his bottom away from me. I turn looking up at Christov and he smiles down at me as he kneels now in front of Tyler, โhey little man, whatโs wrong?โTyler looks at him and wrinkles his nose, โI donโt like girls anymore.โChristovโs expression is pricele
I sit behind my desk listening to Abigail and Cynthia as they talk about Sasha, Abigail is pacing the office, her rage is boiling over and Cynthia sits just watching her as she speaks softly and calmly to her, โAlpha Abigail, Iโve been talking with Sasha for 3 days now, she was just beginning to open up about what she had experienced when you came barging in.โAbigail stops dead and glares at her, โdid you ask if you could speak to a prisoner? Or do you think you do not need to follow protocols any longer since she is your sonโs fated mate?โCynthia flinches at the accusation and raises her hand to Abigail, โstop right there Alpha Abigail, I do not need anyoneโs permission to evaluate a potential victim, whether they are my sonโs fated or not, it is my job to assess, evaluate and report to you my findings.โAbigail arches a brow at her, โfine, so the rest of the prisoners, did you evaluations them, or just Sasha?โCynthia frowns, โjust Sasha.โAbigail frowns, โSo Iโm right, youโre con
