"Do you have everything?" Princeton asked as he carried the last of the suitcases to the awaiting car and I nodded. With one final glance at the house, I followed him out to the front where my siblings were already waiting in the car. "I don't want to go" I whined looking up at Princeton and he chuckled leaning down and rubbing his nose on my neck make me gasp as he skimmed over my mark and felt him smile against my skin"We can come back during the summer just you and me" he murmured, voice husky making body shiver at the suggestion and I nodded "Now let's get home, you have classes to get back to" he said pulling back and holding the door open for me to climb in and I groaned at his reminder. The drive to the pier was short and before I knew it, we were once again boarding the boat they had brought us to the island from the airport. The sun was shining brightly in the sky, birds were flying over head, seagulls squawking in the distance. "Big brother look" Jenna yelled and I looke
"What did you say?" I asked looking at Jessie who looked like a dear caught in the headlights. His heart beat was beating rapidly in his chest with his eyes wide."Um, I'm pregnant?" He stuttered though the answer came out more of a question then anything and I stared at him with wide eyes before blinking and a smile took over before I was practically running across the room and picking him up "Really?" I asked looking up at him as he bit his bottom lip, hands cupping the back of my head and legs wrapped around my waist "I think so. I mean I've been having dizzy spells and feeling nauseous. I took a test and it said positive but I have to go see the doctor to make sure" he murmured and I nodded"I'll link the doctor and see if she's busy" I said and he nodded biting his bottom lip, "don't be nervous Love, it's not as if I'm going to leave you or anything just because you're carrying out baby" "I just don't want you to feel obligated to be with me if you don't want too" he murmured
I stood in front of the mirror and lifted my shirt up to reveal my barely there bump. It was crazy to think that I was expecting my first child with Princeton. I was only 4 months along so far but since it's a werewolf baby with Beta blood running through its veins, the baby was growing fast. Princeton and I announced my pregnancy two months ago and the pack have been thrilled with the news, well all but one. Rachel. She was in love with Princeton and she hated the idea that I was his mate and that I was carrying his child. She's done everything she could think of to get me to have a miscarriage. She believes that if I lost the baby, that Princeton will leave me and there's always a part of me that fears that he's only worth me because of the baby and because of the bond. I know he's told me countless times that he's still chose me if we weren't mates even if it would go against all natural laws. "When do you think the baby will start moving?" I jumped at the sound of Princeton's voi
I sighed as I watched Jessie sleep. Today has been a long and rough day for him. His sister had a seizure and his brother was in the hospital because of his heart giving out during school. I leaned down and placed a kiss to his forehead before heading down stairs to let the pack know the the was okay. With one last glance at him, I walked out of our room and closed the door softly behind me. "Hey, Princeton" a voice called and I looked over and rolled my eyes to see Rachel walking towards me with the sway of her hips. I raised a brow. She had on a one piece black bodysuit that showed of her cleavage making me inwardly gag. Does she not know how to dress?"What?" I asked as I made my way down the hall and I could feel her following after me, her heels clicking again the wooden floors"Why don't you come to my room so we can have a little fun?" She asked her hand grabbing my arm to stop me from moving and I felt my skin crawl with disgust, "you've been stressed and that mate of yours i
Two weeks. That's how long it's been since Jericho fell into a coma. Two weeks of constantly wondering if he'll wake up and hoping that he'll wake up. Two weeks of watching the heart monitor beep and the ventilator pump air into his lungs. Two weeks of watching his chest rise and fall with each pump of air. Two weeks of watching his eyes closed with no signs of opening. Two weeks of knowing that the person who donated his heart was a fallen soldier who died during combat. Two weeks of knowing the family he left behind. In those two weeks, Princeton and I have become great friends with Staff Sargent Eric Ramos, a 21 year old energetic and talented man with a heart of gold that always put those he cares for before his own needs. His fiancée, a beautiful young girl with platinum blond hair and hazel green eyes told us about Eric and the way he was before and after the army.Elizabeth, Eric's fiancée was five months pregnant with their second child when news struck about his death. I had
"Mama why do you keep looking at Ellie like that?" I asked as I watched him stare at the girl across the room with a strange look in his eyes, something that he's never done before."There's something about that girl that seems familiar, but I can't put my finger on it" he replied as his eyes were trained on her. Ellie was currently laughing at something Jessie said and I couldn't help but smile at the happiness radiating from her after everything she's been through she deserves a little bit of happiness."What do you mean?" I asked turning my attention back to him and he sighed "It feels like I know her from somewhere or seen her somewhere I just can't-" he began to say before cutting himself off and a look of recognition dawned over him making me furrow my brows "Ma?" I asked and he blinked shaking his head"I can't believe it's really her" he whispered "What are you talking about mom?" Bella asked now noticing his strange reaction, Papa and my grandparents walked over as well al
We left the infirmary after Dr. Mel checked Jericho to make sure how his body was reacting to the new heart and after getting the all clear, we headed back to the main house only to stop short when we saw a familiar car driving up the driveway. I looked at Princeton to see his face blank meaning he was communicating with the the pack to let them know there was a human coming up the drive and to be careful to not shift in front of her. Lucas and Caleb soon came out to greet us and stood beside us as we waited for Elizabeth's black Range Rover drove up the dirt path before parking in the driveway next to Princeton's car and getting out once she had turned the engine off"Why is she here?" Princeton asked looking at the four of us but we shook our heads "We didn't invite her" his parents said "Neither did I. Hell I didn't ever tell her our address or where we lived" I said with confusion in my voice. And from the looks of it, they were equally confused only to let out a growl when they
The last thing I wanted after finding out that Jessie and I were expecting a son was to be attack just three days later. And the last thing I expected was to see Ellie with a gun filled with wolfsbane surrounded by a group of hunters. The same people that nearly killed my parents six years ago. Ellie, the same girl that had been at our side as we waited patiently for any signs that told us that Jericho would be okay a month ago. The same person who Jessie saw as a friend, someone who could confide in and someone that would be there for him if I wasn't. It was as if everything had slowed down the second I saw her getting it of her car and walking to the back only to come out holding a gun towards us while hunters began emerging from the surrounding area of the woods.Hours passed by before the fight was finally over and I had gone to get Jessie and the kids from the safe room while Marc and Molly took Ellie to the interrogating room to get answers. But like Alexa said, Ellie's scent wa
