Chapter 35: Alpha to Alpha
Gideon
"Come in, Alpha Gideon." I didn't even knock yet. I open the door and enter Alpha John's office. He has old books and scrolls all over the coffee table.
"Amelie and I had a lot to talk about last night. I was hoping to get more detail from you today. My men are working on James' tracking training in the woods today. So, we should have plenty of time. I sit on one of the sofas.
John sit's across from me, "Before we get started, I have something to say. I am honored that the goddess chose you to be mated with Amelie. She deserves to be happy, and I am trusting you with that happiness. With all this family tree and bloodline crap, it's easy to lose sight of other things and put your children's happiness. My children carry a heavy burden, and so do their mates. Amelie has always had it the hardest. I knew people would talk behind my back about having a

Chapter 36: Alpha to Alpha P.2 Gideon "Maybe it wasn't Tate but Karen. Amelie said the emotional and physical abuse and control got worse once she moved in with them. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find too much about her. She is in her early to mid-fifties. Would you or your father have crossed paths with her?" I look at John, hoping he has something. "If I did, Amelie would never have been in that situation, to begin with. I would have locked Amelie up and never allowed harm to come to her." I can tell he blames himself for everything she's been through. "I think she was your second chance mate, but you are her destined mate. I know this sounds insensitive, but you would not have your daughters if Amelie was not your second chance. I do believe Amelie was meant to help you raise them. Not many wolves know what it feels like to have stepparents." "I hope you can accept them

Chapter 37: Heat Amelie It's so hot! I kick off the blanket. Gideon is still asleep. I try to be as quiet as possible and move to a cool spot on the bed, flip my pillow, and try to get back to sleep. Nope! Burning up! Do I have a fever? I feel fine; I'm just so hot. I get up as quietly as possible and go into the bathroom. I splash some cold water on my face, but it doesn't help. I turn on the shower and undress. I get under the cold water, and it feels better, but I'm still so hot. I get out of the shower and grab a towel. As I'm grabbing a towel, I look at myself in the mirror. I look back again, and I saw my eyes were flashing between their usual dark grey to Inari's topaz yellow. Then as I walk closer to the mirror to get a better look, they turn solid topaz, and I can feel I don't have control of my own body. Inari is in control. "Inari, what's going on?" I'm frantic. I have no idea if this

Chapter 38: Love or Bond Amelie "Am, is this the first time you have gone into heat?" I feel a bit of possessiveness coming from Gideon. It's like he wants this experience only ever to be his. "I think so. I thought I had before, but after experiencing this, I know I didn't before." I push my feelings of love and security through the bond. Gideon hums when he feels my emotions, "These two days will be intense. We will swap back and forth with our wolves and continue to solidify our bond." Gideon's hands slowly trail down my back. I feel him push his emotions through the bond. The rush overtakes me. It's not a feeling of lust or desire but need and longing. I cup his face in my hands, "You are the greatest gift I could ever receive." I pull him to my lips. It's different than any kiss we have shared before. It's like a greeting in a way. As if we are embracing for the first time. I guess, in a sense, we ar

Chapter 39: Getting Emotional Amelie "Time to get up," I feel Gideon nuzzling my neck. His touch makes me want to enjoy the moment, "Can't we stay in bed a little longer." "Come on, up." He bites my neck playfully. It is instantly making me want to keep him in bed. "We are leaving tomorrow, and we have a lot still to prepare." "If you keep that up, neither of us will leave this bed." I pull myself closer to him. I nuzzle and kiss his chest. It's become my favorite place cuddled up next to him. He picks me up, "We will have time again tonight, my storm." He carries me to the bathroom and puts me down; he turns on the shower. We jump in, still teasing each other but hurrying at the same time. Every second we are together, I can't help but smile. We get dressed and head down to the kitchen. Benjamin and Becky are already down there. It has become routine for us to interrupt t

Chapter 40: Unexpected Amelie My tears dried quickly, "What? Why would there be upset she-wolves." Rage and jealousy started to bubble in me, and Inari was completely locked into the conversation as well. Fear was the only emotion on Matt's face, "Oh, I mean, Alpha Gideon was an eligible widower, and you know there is a group of she-wolves who would try and get his attention. I mean, it never worked, of course. Kind of like a fan club. Honestly, the only females Alpha paid attention to were his daughters." Inari and I calmed a bit but knowing that other women tried to claim mine was irritating. The only woman who didn't bother me but I was jealous of was Mandy for apparent reasons. The goddess fated her and Gideon. I couldn't hate her for that. "It's fine. Let's go back in. I need to clean up before my mother gets here." I need to get my emotions in check; I feel all over the place. I go back inside and

Chapter 41: A New Blessing Gideon Shortly after the girls leave, we all decide to do a training session with James outside. Logan and John are in their late 40’s but all wolves age slowly, and being Alpha’s, we are naturally more robust, so age doesn’t play a factor. We had enough to run some combat drills since we also had my men and some of John’s guards. Logan was always ready for a fight, and I could see he was itching to relieve some stress. We run drills and work on two on one tactics all morning. James is lying on the ground panting from fighting off two of my men, “Can we go eat before you officially kill me?” We all laugh, “alright, let’s go. I’m sure Becky is almost finished with lunch.” I help up the young Alpha. He has made some significant improvements in a short time. John puts his arm around James’ shoulder. It makes me miss my father and my girls. I can’t wait till

Chapter 42: Change Again Amelie After Gideon went up to take a shower, I turned to dad and Logan, “What was that all about?” Logan has moved over to mom and has wrapped his arm around her waist, “I did the same thing when your mom was pregnant with your brother Riley. It’s instinct, and it’s hard to control.” Logan was not one for PDA, so it was sweet to see them like that. Dad also cuddled up to Celeste, “It’s natural he will work through it. Just be prepared when it happens.” Seeing the love fest going on made me want Gideon. I turn my attention to the kitchen to help Becky with lunch. When I turn around, Becky and Benjamin are all cuddly too. I can’t help but start crying for no real reason, but I only want Gideon right that second. As soon as I start crying, Gideon comes rushing into the kitchen, no shoes on, a shirt in hand, jeans on only. “What is it what happened?” H

Chapter 43: Druit Guard Packhouse Amelie I stand frozen in front of my childhood home. Behind me is a caravan of SUVs and a moving truck. In front of me are the people who have raised me and stood by me, waiting to say goodbye. I have been through this before, but it feels more definite this time. Like I know, I will never call this my home again. It makes me a little sad. I’m happy I found Gideon. I am beyond excited to be pregnant but leaving the place that has given me so much safety and security for so long after everything I went through is harder than I ever imagined. Gideon walks up and puts his arm around me. “We need to get going. It’s not a goodbye. It’s your family; you will see them soon.” He can feel emotions swirling and twisting. Just his touch and his understanding put me at ease. “It just feels so final.” I sigh and lean into him. He rubs my shoulder, “Well, I guess it is
