first of all. thank you for letting me know about misnaming my chapter. and also for letting me know there is already an Alpha Asher story. I have to think about a new name now. Maybe like the Iron River's Alpha or something. Or something to do with Asher's mate, but I haven't decided yet who that will be. anyway back to this chapter. hope you liked it. have pysicical therapy later for my leg, so won't be able to write then. will try to write in the evening.
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
Mei’s pov Eddie walked towards me and put his hands on my face, cupping my cheeks. “Hey beautiful,” he said and he kissed me. I didn’t push him away, instead I kissed him back. My tongue playing with his. Eddie lifted me up from the floor and I put my legs around him. Goddess, he felt so good. The way he kissed, the way he pressed himself against me. He pressed his bulge against me, letting me know he was feeling the same way I was. Why was my cheek wet? Was I crying? I woke up. Shit, I had a dream about Eddie. Shit, I was leaning against Eddie! And I had even drooled on him, because my cheek was wet and so was his shirt. Shit, shit, shit. I didn’t like Eddie. I couldn’t like Eddie. Not only was he family in a weird sort of way, he also was the next Alpha in line. I had no desire to be Luna of their pack. When I was eighteen I would go back to Singapore and I would start my life there. I had always planned on going back, although it was getting harder. At first I was angry at Ch
Ela’s pov “That smells so good that I don’t know whether to eat you or whatever you’re baking.” Easton said from the other room. Ariel looked at me mortified. “Ariel is here, Easton.” I mindlinked Easton, laughing loudly. Easton came out, apologizing to a very red Ariel. “I am so sorry. I didn’t hear you and that smell of whatever you’re baking was too strong for me to smell your scent. Sorry!” Ariel looked a bit shy, but I knew she and Troy were living together and doing probably the same things me and Easton were. She had really changed since living with Troy. She was more confident, she shared more and she looked happy. “It’s fine,” Ariel finally said, “I wanted to bring some cookies to Luna Lily anyway. You enjoy whatever you decide to eat.” I almost chocked on the cookie I was eating and laughed loudly, while Easton just stared in shock at the once timid Ariel. When Ariel left, Easton shook his head. “You have some weird friends, Sweets. Talia shares everything and now shy
Ariel’s pov I loved Ela’s enthusiasm, but I was in no hurry to open any business. I never thought I would be able to go to school, to live with my boyfriend and to have a normal life. I sometimes still felt like I didn’t deserve it, but Samantha was always there to tell me otherwise. “Hell yeah, I am. You deserve every good thing you’re getting and more, Cherry.” I pinched myself often, never in my wildest dreams would I have this life. My dad made me think I would die young and Beta Tyrion made me think I would only experience pain in this lifetime. But waking up next to Troy was the best feeling ever. I have never felt so loved before. “Okay enough with the summary of our lives. Let’s get back to what you were doing, Boo.” Samantha said. I had spoken to Luna Angelina at Kate and Leia’s party. I was really surprised to see her there and it reminded me of my time there. Of how I tried to help her and Alpha Jayden. But also how I helped Beta Tyrion while they were locked up. Those
Eros’ povIt has been a few weeks since Kate’s birthday party and Eddie is back to normal. He had been really grumpy and wanted to change his name, but since coming back from the Iron River pack, it's like he is his old self. Well, maybe not totally. He still seemed to be dealing with something, but at least he isn't so angry and mean anymore.Mei was acting weird too and part of me wished her mother was here. A teenage girl needs her mom, but luckily Charlotte had become really close to Mei. Hopefully she could help het.“Can’t believe you want another baby, after seeing how they change when they’re teenagers.” Angelo joked.Charlotte seemed a lot happier too. We didn’t just have sex on the days she was ovulating. The schedule went out the window and I got my woman back. If we were meant to have a child together, we would. But not like this. I didn’t want Charlotte to feel this stressed out and feel like she was failing at something, that wasn’t something she could control anyway.Th
Lily’s pov “So Charlotte is pregnant! She called me and she’s twelve weeks now and doing well.” I told Osiris, really excited. Of course Osiris took this differently than I did, “you want to try for another baby, my love?” Although he sounded really good and I knew I wouldn’t mind trying, I wasn’t really ready for three kids right now. Asher would start school soon and Kate just started walking. I finally had some time for myself. I felt guilty for sounding so selfish, but it was the truth. “It’s not selfish. You are allowed to choose.” Arya said. “Let’s just enjoy Katie and Ash for now.” I replied. Osiris didn’t mind my answer, “we can pretend to try?” he said seductively. After “trying” for an hour, we finally went to sleep. I had a busy day ahead of me, but being with Osiris was always high on my list. I’d rather have sex than sleep. "Yeah, you say that now. But back when Kate and Asher were waking up every couple of hours, you really wanted your sleep.” Arya said laughing.
Meadow’s pov I have hated this pregnancy. I know it’s not nice to say and I feel guilty for thinking it. But I want my body back. I want to be able to see my feet and not feel them all the time. I want to spend a lot less time on the toilet and I want to eat things without getting acid reflux. I was burping all day long. But most importantly, I want to meet my son. Our son. I wonder what he looks like. If it is going to be a blond boy like Chris. If it will have my personality or his. Chris has been so good to me and he loves me like this. He finds me really attractive right now. During my second trimester I was so horny and everything felt wonderful, but now that I am in my third trimester, I feel like a whale and I am tired and not in the mood. Luckily Chris is a patient man and I will reward him for it once the baby is born. “You mean when the baby is keeping you up all night?” Aurora said. Okay, maybe Chris needs to be a little more patient than I thought. I sighed. Fine. They
