Fate Or Mates 0193: Epilogue
ANGELA’S POVOne Year Later The Future Grove was no longer a field of hopeful saplings. It had grown into a young forest, sunlit and alive, leaves flashing gold as a late summer breeze threaded through. Pack members filled the space, scattered on blankets and fallen logs, not out of duty but because this was where they belonged. It felt less like a ceremony and more like a family picnic that had happily slipped its leash.At the center, beneath the wide branches of the lodgepole pine Aaron had planted with his own hands, a queen held court on a blanket. Annie.One year old and already ruling by force of will. Dark honey curls framed her face, wild and soft, her features an impossible blend of her parents. Aaron’s storm-gray eyes. My stubborn mouth. Both amplified by frosting. Blue frosting, smeared across her cheeks and chin.She brought her fist down on the smash cake with total conviction. Crumbs flew. Drew took a hit to the chest. Leo caught frosting on his sleeve. Neither of them
Fate Or Mates 0192: Napping On The Job
ANGELA’S POVThe three days in the clinic suite passed in a blissful, sleep-starved haze. It was a cocoon. Cora and her assistants handled everything outside the small, sacred circle of our new family. They checked my healing, brought food, spoke softly, and left. It was a buffer between the violence of her arrival and the world waiting beyond the walls.The world, however, did not stay away.By the second day, gifts began to appear in the clinic’s receiving room. Pack members came in ones and twos, nodded to the guards, set down their offerings, and slipped away. A carved rattle. A blanket of impossibly soft lamb’s wool. Tiny knitted boots. Their faces held the same quiet awe, something reverent. The mountain of gifts from the festival had been for the idea of her. These were for Annie.On the fourth morning, Mara smiled over her clipboard. “The Luna is healing. The pup is strong. Go home.”Aaron drove us himself in the pack’s largest SUV, moving at a pace that bordered on absurd. Ev
Fate Or Mates 0191:New Boss Have Arrived
ANGELA’S POVThe first true contraction did not hit like a punch. It twisted deep inside me, sudden and breath-stealing, cutting me off mid-sentence.I was in the sunroom with one hand on the back of a chair, half listening as Rainey explained the tragic pattern of a sweater she was knitting. For a beat I thought I had imagined it. The pain was that internal, that complete. Then it released, leaving a hollow space behind it, like an echo inside my body.Rainey stopped talking. “Angela? You okay? You just went kind of gray.”“I’m…” Another wave gathered, slow and unavoidable. This one closed around me, heavy and tight, a band of iron cinching low in my body. I gripped the chair until heat flared in my knuckles. “Okay. I think… I think it’s time.”Saying it snapped everything into focus. Terror and exhilaration cracked through me at once.Rainey did not panic. She sharpened. “Right. First one?” She was already beside me, steadying my arm as the contraction peaked hard enough to blur the
Fate Or Mates 0190: Five Minutes Of Peace
ANGELA’S POVLate afternoon sun warmed the porch while I held court, my hands resting on the impossible curve of my stomach. In six months it had gone from a gentle swell to a proud dome that made standing an event. Annie was quiet today, resting. Her presence felt like a steady, welcome weight.The peace shattered on cue.“Move, Leo, you’re blocking the best auntie!” Rainey’s laughter reached me before she did. My cousin barreled up the path with her three brothers in tow. Drew, Leo, and Jace each carried a wrapped gift almost as big as they were.“Best auntie? Please,” Drew said, hefting a box that looked like a small fortress. “She’ll need uncles who teach important things. Like skipping rocks and identifying trees.”“She’ll need an uncle with taste,” Jace said, straightening the ribbon on his sleek package. “And negotiation skills.”Leo lifted a carved wooden wolf. His smile said enough.I laughed, easy and full. “You’re all going to spoil her. You can all be the best. Maybe wait
Fate Or Mates 0189:No Rush Policy
Angela’s POVMore movement came, little rolls, a dance. A shaky laugh escaped him , half sob. He bent and pressed his lips to the spot.“Hey, little one,” he said, voice thick. “I’m right here. We both are. No rush.”He stayed there, murmuring soft promises until the kicks eased into gentle waves, like she was listening.When he finally moved up beside me, he cupped my face, thumbs brushing away tears I hadn’t noticed. His own eyes were bright.“She’s strong,” he said.“Ours,” I managed.He kissed me , soft, careful, still holding the wonder. I parted my lips, tilted into him, and the kiss changed. Deepened. Not urgent. Just inevitable.He made a low sound and slid his hand to the nape of my neck, angling me closer. The restraint in him was palpable (he was always careful now), but the want was there too, warm and steady.I curled my fingers into his shirt, feeling the thud of his heart.He pulled back just enough to meet my eyes. “Tell me if anything feels wrong. Promise.”“Nothing h
Fate Or Mates 0188: The First Kick
ANGELA’S POVThree months had passed since the tribunal, and the pack shower had turned the entire territory into one long exhale of relief.I stood beside Aaron on the raised platform at the edge of the main green, his hand warm around mine, and watched our people pour into the space. Long tables sagged under the weight of food every household had sent. Someone had dragged out guitars and a drum set. Children darted between legs, already half-wild with excitement.But everyone’s eyes kept drifting to the mountain of gifts.It had started small that morning, practical things from the elders: soft blankets, tiny knitted boots), but it had grown ridiculous and perfect. A painted sled no pup could use for years. A set of plush wolves that looked tough enough to survive a warrior’s roughhousing. And right on top, gleaming under the late sun, a toy drum set that had to be James’s doing. He caught my eye across the crowd and winked, utterly unrepentant.No one looked at me the way they had
