Hi, will write another chapter about April marking Cyrus tommorow or tonight. I am home now and had a great vacation. Wrote most of this chapter in the plane on my phone. I am really tired, so I hope I didn't make any mistakes.
Cyrus’ pov I got Ela to babysit Leia and I was so fucking exited. I had asked her at the party and since then, all I could fucking think about was marking April. Fuck it was going to be epic. Today was the fucking day. Oliver was at school and Ela would come over after Leia’s bottle and she would probably take a nap soon. Leia was an easy baby and she seemed to like Ela, so I wasn't fucking worried. All I could think about was having April to myself for a few hours and finding out what this fucking surprise was. April had left a fucking hour ago and told me to take care of Leia until Ela arrived. Apparently she had some things to prepare. “You’re fucking lucky man. April want to make this special for you.” Fox said. “What do you know? Did Thea fucking tell you something?” I tried to interrogate Fox, while watching Leia being mesmerized by her own hand. “I am not saying a fucking word man. Just wait.” Fox said mysteriously. Ela arrived, I told her what to and then I got a mindlin
Osiris’ pov “Are you sure I don’t need to handle Jones?” I asked Lily. He had insulted April and the pack, but Lily had gone to his house a few days after the party to talk to him. I had offered to go, but she wanted to handle it herself. Lily smiled, “no, it’s fine. He said he will leave and I think I scared him enough. But thank you, Os.” Her smiled turned into a frown, “I feel kind of bad. I have been feeling so guilty, trying to divide my attention between Asher and Kate. Trying to be a good mom and mate to you. I feel like I am not being the Luna I am meant to be. And getting angry at Jones, actually felt really good. Is that bad?” I smiled at my beautiful wife, the mother of my two kids. “No, my love. It isn’t bad. You’re just trying to find a balance. Maybe I can help? I have been thinking about offering Damian a job, asking him to help out. This way Riker can spend some days with Sierra and I can help out with the kids. It’s not only your responsibility. I am their dad.”
Lily’s pov “…Things have been going great. After I told Jones to leave, the rest who disagreed either got on board or also left. Luckily it was only a small group. The next Blood Moon will come soon and we’ll see who else will turn. I know some have shown interest, but it’s their choice. Kate is growing so much and Asher too! I feel like I got a routine down and I am able to spend time with them both. When Kate naps, I spend one on one time with Asher and when Asher is in preschool for three days a week, I spend time with Kate. How is Amelia doing? And the rest of the family? Dad will visit next week to see Samira, so I’ll ask him more than. Sorry to write an email, but every time I try to call you, one of the kids needs me and I am getting sick of not being able to finish any conversation. You must get it, every conversation I have with adults is very brief and skips to different subjects, because there is so little time to focus. I miss you and I’ll come and try to visit soon. O
Charlotte’s pov “Eddie, please. Just come with us.” I asked, hoping my brother would join us for Kate’s first birthday party. He already skipped going to the pack three weeks ago, when my dad went to see Samira. It’s like he’s suddenly becoming a teenager, one of those teenagers that hates everything and only wants to be alone and stare at his phone. “It’s Ward now. Not Eddie. Eddie is a child’s name. I’m going to be eighteen in two years.” Eddie said annoyed. I rolled my eyes, “fine, ‘Ward.’ Just come with us. I know Lily misses you and you haven’t seen Alpha Osiris in more than a year.” Eddie shrugged. “You mean Ward shrugged.” Erica said. Whatever, Ward shrugged and didn’t answer me. He walked out, but not before giving Amelia a hug. Even if he was a bratty teenagers now and taller than me, he was still good with his favorite niece. It gave me hope to see he still treated my little girl the same. Eros would stay behind and I would go with Eddie and Amelia to the Iron River pa
Osiris’ pov “Could you do that thing you do? You know, that makes people talk?” Lily asked when we were getting ready to bed. “You mean torture them? I thought we stopped torturing people.” I replied. Lily started to laugh and put her hands over her forehead. “O my goddess. No Os. No.” She laughed so hard, she had to take a break before talking again. When she finally stopped and took a deep breath, she asked me what she had really meant. “O my Goddess. That was funny. So no, everyone at dinner was so awkward. Eddie or Ward was so weird and dad looked a bit depressed. Charlotte was sad too, but I already know why. Could you maybe talk to them or whatever you did last time? Anything to make them open up to you and be normal again.” I shrugged, “I can try. But I have no idea if Eddie even wants to talk to me.” Lily stood on her toes and gave me a kiss, “thank you. Maybe he feels better opening up to you. And dad too. Maybe something is going on with Samira?” “So now we’re playin
Osiris’ pov One down, one to go. Apparently I did have a way of making people talk. Without torture. “Don’t make a habit out of it,” Santos joked. "I like it better when we do torture people. all this talking is boring." I took Edward towards the farm with Wolf. I needed to see Cyrus anyway, because we had decided to combine Leia’s and Kate’s birthday into one big kid party. The drive over Edward was staring out of his window, sighing heavily. “So what is going on?” I asked, not a fan of beating around the bush. “Nothing, I’m fine, Osiris.” Alpha Edward answered. “No disrespect, but you and your son are very similar. Eddie said the same thing and was lying too.” Edward growled, “fine. I am not okay. But I will be. It’s just stuff with Samira.” I shrugged, “so tell me. I don’t mind.” Edward sighed, loudly. “it’s like we’re stuck in the same place. She doesn’t want to meet my family, she doesn’t want to come to my pack. It’s all coming from me and there is no effort on her part.
Charlotte’s pov I had spoken with Lily about the whole thing, but I still felt sad. No amount of talking would get rid of this feeling of failure. If there was something wrong with me, I’d rather just know and then I could accept that another child wasn’t possible. But this limbo, where the doctors thought everything was fine, yet I didn’t get pregnant. This was horrible. They always make jokes how much fun ‘trying’ for a baby is, but in reality it is insanely stressful. Lily had invited us all to watch a movie together, but I just wanted to sleep. I took Amelia up stairs after dinner and brought her to the kids room. Lily had put an extra mattress in the kids room, so Amelia could stay there with her cousins. It was like a slumber party. It took a while, but I finally got her to bed and I went to my room. “I’m sorry Charlotte.” Eros voice said through the mindlink. “Why are you sorry?” I asked. “For not realizing how much stress you are under. It can’t be easy trying for a baby.
Lily’s pov “Hey Eros, Mei!” I said surprised to see them. “I decided to surprise Charlotte,” Beta Eros said, reminding me how much I preferred him over Gabriel. “She is up stairs in her room. We are going to watch a movie. Mei, you want to join us?” Mei looked a bit nervous for some reason, but Tao nodded and called her to sit next to him. Eros went upstairs, while we were all waiting for Osiris and Eddie to come back with some popcorn and snacks. When they came back, Eddie seemed to blush when he saw Mei. Osiris gave me a look. “What did that look mean?” I mindlinked him. “I am sworn to secrecy. But just watch your brother closely.” I knew I could get Osiris to tell me the secret, whatever it was. But I found it really cute, that Eddie trusted Osiris. I didn’t mind not knowing everything. Osiris took a seat next to me and the only other seat left was next to Mei. Mei and Eddie both looked very uncomfortable and when Eddie sat down, he apologized softly. “There is something
