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

Chapter 44: Meeting the Pack Amelie Daisy is not having it. She pushes Gideon’s face away, “No, daddy! I want Amawee.” It was cute, but I could see a little hurt in Gideon’s eyes, “Daisy, how would you like to hold my hand and walk. We need to go inside to see everyone. Can you hold my hand?” I learned a long time ago Alpha children were different from other children. Male or female, they still carried Alpha blood and tended to be fiercer when they wanted something. The flip side is that they tend to be more intelligent, and you can be reasoned with. Daisy reaches for me, “I hold Amawee’s hand.” Gideon sets her down, and she takes my hand, and we all walk together to the front of the house where everyone is waiting. “Amelie, this is my Beta Tyson. His mate Shay and their son Easton.” They all bow their heads. Tyson is tall and thinner build than what I was expecting. He has light brown hair, pale skin,

Chapter 45: First Day as Luna Amelie I thought t was going to be a small dinner with the Beta and Gamma families. I had no idea it was with the whole pack that stays in the compound in the main dining hall. When we get to the doorway, Marcus is standing there and announces us. "Alpha Gideon and Luna Amelie. Attention!" Everyone stands at attention then bows their heads. I've never experienced anything like this before. I'm so nervous I don't know where I should or shouldn't look. I walk behind Gideon with the twins holding each of my hands. Out of the corner of my eye, I catch a table of she-wolves, and I can tell they don't like me. This must be the "fan club" Matt told me about. "Inari, we are going to need to concentrate our Luna aura in our gaze. You ready?" I was going to let them know who's boss from the start. "Hell yes! No one messes with our mate and family!" Inari snarls

Chapter 46: Family Bonds Amelie Gideon turns and looks at me while he rubs the back of his neck. "OK, come on, girls," I say and pat the spot next to me. I can see the happiness on Gideon's face than a flash of disappointment. The girls crawl in bed and wiggle under the covers. Rose is next to me, and she looks up and touches my chest right above my heart. "When you have our flowers, can we call you mommy?" Tears start welling up, "Yes, you can call me mommy." Daisy pops up, "When will you have our flowers?" Gideon joins the conversation. "When do you want Amelie to have your flowers?" Daisy stands up in the bed, and with all the determination her little body can muster, she yells, "Right now!" I can't help but laugh. She's so fierce for a three-year-old. "OK, but you need to understand that there is going to be blood. So don't get scared." Gideon tells them. "We're not s

Chapter 47: Don't Mess With the Luna Amelie "Owe!" I wake up with a tiny arm smacking me in the face. I turn, and Gideon is waking up with a foot in his face. "I think we are going to need a bigger bed," I whisper as I slowly get up. There is a slight panic in Gideon's expression, "They can't sleep with us every night." I smile and head to the bathroom to get ready for the day. It's my first unofficial day as Luna, and I have so much I need to prepare for the Luna ceremony and pack duties. I knew what kind of Luna I was going to be. My focus would be on improving the lives of my pack members. I had a lot to dig into to do that. I knew I was going to enhance pack meals first and do some minor redecorating in the packhouse to prep for the Ceremony. I needed a team, and I knew just where to find them. I quickly get dressed. It's starting to warm up a bit, it's still ch

Chapter 48: The Luna is Here to Stay Gideon I should have never let a Jericho into my pack. Any Alpha children who apply to join my pack I personal review and interview. I felt sorry for the young Jericho girl a few years back. Maybe I was blinded by the loss of Mandy. I remember my interview with Von. She said she was trying to escape her family reputation and wanted a fresh start. Her family does have a horrible reputation, and the Blue Crescent pack has the highest rate of deserters. I have taken in many who have left because of her father, Blake Jericho. Von came here shortly after her brother Nox became Alpha. From what she said, three years ago, he more or less pushed her out, scared that her mate might challenge him for the Alpha title. She was a pack warrior, so she decided to apply to the Druit Guard instead of going Rouge. Now I wonder if that was her intent. I have had many a she-wolf try and

Chapter 49: Girl Power Amelie "Ladies, as the ranked females of this pack, we will focus our attention on improving the lives of all pack members. We also need to refine our pack's reputation from militant enforcers to investigators and relief responders. Should others fear us? Yes, but they should also see us as hope." They all stare at me with wide eyes. During the month together at the Ashwood pack, I got to know Gideon and how the pack operates, and I outlined changes I felt needed to be made. Some would be quick and easy. Others would take years to develop fully. My ideas and solutions floored Gideon. He gave me free rein to use my authority to improve the pack. He said he knew I was always meant for him to make the pack stronger than he could ever on his own. He permitted me to use whatever resources I needed. So am taking the ranked females under my wing. Shay the Beta, Jorden the Gamma, and Becky
