I wake up at 5am like I do every morning and stretch. I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth. I brush my hair and put it up in a high ponytail. I put deodorant on and than change into my short shorts and a tank top. I go downstairs to the kitchen and get a drink.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Shouts my brother
Holy crap you scared me Eric. I tell him
I know that's the whole point. He says chuckling
I can't believe my baby sister is finally an adult. He says
I told you to stop calling me that. I tell him as I smack his arm
You'll always be my baby sister. He says with a smile on his face
Eric is my older brother. He's 20 and is in training to take over being Alpha of this pack. He stands about 6'2 and has shaggy brown hair with bright green eyes just like me. We get our bright green eyes from our mother while our father has piercing blue eyes. Eric and I have a lot of similarities but I don't think we look anything a like. Eric has an 8 pack while I just have a very toned flat stomach. I only stand 5'6 and I have long bright blonde hair. I look just like my mom and Eric looks just like my dad except for the green eyes of course.
So are you excited? Eric asks
About what? Leaving the pack to be with a viscous Alpha or turning 18? I ask
Eric looks at me and than says I've met Alpha Jackson on more than one occasion and even though he has a bad reputation he's not that bad. He just doesn't put up with any crap and because of that no one wants to get on his bad side. That includes our parents.
I take a deep breath and sigh. Okay I guess I'm just worrying for nothing. I say
You got that right. Eric says
When are you going to choose your mate? I ask Eric
I don't know. Dad says I need to focus on my Alpha training and once I become Alpha than I can choose a mate for myself. Eric says looking at me
Just than mom and dad walk in laughing.
Good morning kids. Happy Birthday beautiful daughter of mine! Dad says
Alright are you two ready for the last birthday family run? Mom says
Yes. Both Eric and I answer at the same time.
We go out back and undress behind different trees so we can't see each other. Once we're done we all shift and take off. Dad takes the lead with my mother beside him. Than Eric and I are next to each other right behind our parents.
After what seemed like hours we ran back to the pack house and shifted back and got dressed. We went inside the pack house and went straight for the kitchen because all of us were hungry and we smelt breakfast. We sat down and waited for breakfast to be served.Good morning Maria. I say
Good morning birthday girl. I made you special birthday pancakes. Maria says as she puts the plate down in front of me
I eat my pancakes in silence as I'm just enjoying my family's presence. Once I'm done I take my plate and cup to the kitchen and hand them to Maria.
Breakfast was delicious. I say
Thank you. I will see you at the BBQ in a few hours. Maria says
I walk up to my room and go straight to the bathroom. I hop in the shower and take an extra long steamy shower. Once I'm ready I get out and wrap the towel around me. I dig out my makeup I'm going to wear along with my curling iron. I plug in my curling iron and than get dressed. I wrap my beautiful long blonde hair in the towel and wash my face. Than I start to apply my foundation and concealer. Next my eye primer, eye liner, and mascara. Than I move onto some eye shadow, lip liner, and lipstick. After that I put all my stuff I already used in my suitcase. I take out my hair which is still a little damp and I put some product in my hair to help from damaging my hair. I curl my hair and put some hairspray in it but not the kind that makes your hair stiff. I do some other things and when I'm done I look in the mirror my long blonde hair was on point and even though it was curled it still went down to the middle of my back. I was wearing a nice semi short black dress that showed off the girls a little. The dress showed all of my curves but I didn't care because I was pretty petite so it's not like I had a ton of curves to show off. I wore beautiful black high heels that match my dress.
Oh look it's time for the BBQ. I tell Alicia
I walk downstairs and am greeted with smiles and hugs from all of my friends and family and even people who I weren't friends with but got along with. I opened presents which consisted a lot of stuff to go along with having a mate. We ate cake and had a great time.
I was dancing in the back yard with some friends when my mom walked over and said he's here.
Where? I askOver there. She said tilting her head
I look over and sure enough he was standing by the backdoor watching me. We made eye contact and he grinned.
Alpha Jackson stands 6'9. He has short dark brown hair with icy blue eyes, he's very tan and muscular. I could see his muscles through his t-shirt that hugged his biceps. He has pearly white teeth and a small scar above his eyebrow.
I looked at my mom and asked What should I do?
Go to him. Bow and say hello. She said
So I walked over to him bowed my head and said Hello Alpha Jackson
Get up. Alpha Jackson said
I was stunned but did what he said
He looked me up and down and than said dang your hot. I definitely made the right choice with picking you.
I just stood there awkwardly not knowing what to say.
You know you don't have to be so shy around me. I am your mate and you are mine. You don't have to bow to me or call me Alpha. We are equals. You may call me Jackson. Said JacksonYes if that's what you want. I say
This looks like a great party you have going on. Jackson said
Yeah it's my birthday party. I say
Speaking of which Happy Birthday and I also got you something. He said as he pulled out a little black box from his pocket
He opened the box and inside was a little gold ring. This is called a friendship ring. Eventually we'll be more than just friends but until we get use to each other just treat me like you would one of your friends. Jackson says as he slides the ring on my ring finger
Thank you. I say
Now I hate to cut the party short but we really have to get going. Jackson says
Okay. Can you give me 10 minutes to grab my stuff and say goodbye? I ask
Of course. Jackson says
I hurry up and say goodbye to everyone and grab my stuff. I follow Jackson out front to the driveway where two SUVs were parked. Samantha comes out with her stuff and just stands there for a minute not knowing what to do.
Your mate is waiting for you in the first SUV. Jackson says
Thank you. Samantha says as she heads to the first SUV
I follow Jackson to the second SUV and the driver gets out and puts my stuff in the SUV. We climbed in the back and we took off with me looking back at the pack house I have spent the last 18years of my life living in.
I was in complete awe of Mathias. It had been a few hours since I had him and so far I’m the only one who has held him besides the nurse and doctor. He has been nursing like a champ and he was already such a good little pup. My mom and beta Alex were still at the hospital with me and there was still no sign of Alpha Jackson. I was hoping he would be here by now but nope. At this point I was getting really really tired. Alright mom. I’m exhausted. I need a nap. Can you take Mathias so I can get an hour nap before his next feeding? I askOf course. She says as she takes himI watch her as she walks over and sits in the chair across the room. I then roll over and soon sleep takes over. I’m walking alongside a river on a full moon night. Its chilly and I’m bare foot. What am I doing here? I ask Alicia Maybe another dream? Alicia says I continue walking when I see a glowing white figure. I’m completely mesmerized by her. I drop to my knees. Listen to me. You need to tell Jackson that
A few days went by in a flash. Jackson was super busy with pack business and I was getting ready for our pup. I had Samantha and a few other shewolves helping out with training since I’m so big I can’t do much now. I don’t think Jackson cares much for me right now because we haven’t done anything in days when before it was everyday and normally multiple times a day. Because I will be having our pup real soon Patricia and Sasha have taken over my Luna duties for now. My mom and I have gotten everything ready for the pup so now we’re just waiting for him to be born. I’ve been enjoying my time with my mom and I really don’t want her to go back but I know she has to soon. I woke up when I felt warm liquid soak the sheets. I look over at the clock and it read 6:02am. I started climbing out of bed when I noticed Jackson wasn’t in bed. Hmm wonder where he is. I said to AliciaProbably in his office like usual. She saidI walked into the bathroom and pulled down my pajama shorts. They were
The nursery finally was done being Painted so I started setting everything up in the nursery. Of course I wasn’t allowed to put anything together. I didn’t bring up how many pups we are going to have again because I know that I’m going to lose. I’m the Luna but Jackson still treats me like I can’t do anything for myself. I thought maybe after that big fight he would change and let me do more but nope. Now I’m due in 3 weeks and have so much to do but I’m not allowed to do some of it. Hey what are you doing? I mindlinked Natalie and SamNothing. My mate is at training. I’m on my way over. Natalie mindlinks backI’m working unfortunately. I was hoping we’d see each other more once we moved here but it’s like impossible. Sam mindlinks back Can Sam please get done with her omega duties today? Natalie is on her way over but I also need Sam’s help to. I mindlinked JacksonOkay fine. I’ll let the head omega know to let her off. Jackson mindlinks me back.Problem solved. Jackson said he’ll
I was in the kitchen eating breakfast while b****t feeding Nathanial. Mathias was sitting in his high chair throwing cheerios on the floor. Leena sat in a high chair next to Mathias looking at him like why are you throwing your food. Sayla is in her high chair sleeping. I’m so exhausted. I tell AliciaYeah well you have four pups and you’re pregnant with your fifth pup. What do you expect? Alicia asksI don’t know. I was hoping to take a break from having pups but when I brought it up to Jackson he said he wants as many pups as the moon goddess grants us. We are having our fifth pup already. My body is tired. Mathias and Leena both start to cry. Ugh not again. I open my eyes and look around. I’m still in mine and Jackson’s bedroom. I look at the clock and it says 2:37am. Ugh why am I awake? I ask AliciaBecause you’re pregnant and always have to pee. She repliesI get up and go to the bathroom. When I’m done I decide to get ready for the day because I know there’s no way I’m going
My morning sickness was starting to subside. I still felt nauseated but I hadn't thrown up in two days so it's a start. Today would be the day I start to train the women of my pack. It's my job to pick out their strengths and weaknesses. Jackson put me in charge because not only was it my idea to train all women 16 and older but they're women and I'm a woman so they would more than likely be more comfortable with me training them than Jackson or any of the pack warriors. Jackson says there's nothing to fear but I can feel it in my bones that something will be going down in the future. I just don't know what and if I'm correct the women need to know how to defend themselves. I went outside and walked the 5 minute walk to the training field. I was only 10 minutes early but some of the women were already starting to arrive. When it hit 9am the field was pretty full. Alright ladies. I need all of you to stretch for the next 15 minutes. I tell them as I sit down on the ground and start do
Tomorrow is the big day. The day the whole pack will find out that I'm pregnant. I'm sure the members that have seen me have their suspicions but no one has said anything to me. Hey you're going shopping with Sam and Natalie. Jackson says walking into my office. Why? I have clothes. I ask You're starting to show and you've been stealing my clothes because most of yours no longer fit you. Jackson says When will they be here? I ask Now. Jackson says Okay but wait hardly anyone knows I'm pregnant. If I go shopping for maternity clothes than more will know. And they won't say anything because they know we're announcing something tomorrow plus your the Luna. Jackson says Girl c'mon. Natalie mindlinks meWell I have to go. I tell him I go to leave my office when Jackson pulls me back to him and kissing me passionately. I feel my undies get wet and I know he knows. He puts me down on my feet and smiles. Okay you can go now. Jackson says So not fair. I tell him I get downstairs
