Jason's POV"Lisa said that you wanted to see me," my mom said as she walked into Uncle Michael's office. She looked over and Mark and me and had a concerned expression.I had asked Uncle Michael and Mark if they could be with me when I asked my mom what she was hiding. I was nervous to ask her alone. They agreed, and Uncle Michael thought it would be a good idea to talk in his office."Is everything okay?" she asked."Mom, I need to talk to you," I said, and she sat on the chair beside me"What do you want to talk about?" My mom asked "Is there something that you are not telling me?" I asked; she looked at me with confusion on her face."What do you mean? Why would I hide anything from you?" She askedI didn't know what to say to her, so I looked over at Uncle Michael, and he understood immediately"Cindy told Jason that Cheryl told her that you are hiding something from him," Uncle Michael said"And you believe her? She did lie to you about being your mate," She said"I know, and t
Rose's POVGood evening Luna, Alpha," one of the Pack Members said as Derek and I walked into the Packhouse. "Good evening, Janet," Derek said as we walked to his office with his arm over my shoulders. It had been four days since the Ceremonies, and I was still not used to being called Luna. I told Derek that I would rather the Pack Members call me by my real name, but he said that would be unacceptable and lead some members to undermine my authority. It made sense, so I would have to get used to being called Luna.Aunt Lisa was already at his office door before we made it there. She had been teaching me everything I was supposed to do as Luna, and I was thankful for that. I thought I was just supposed to stand by Derek's side as Luna, but I was wrong. While Derek keeps the Pack safe and secure, I am the mother of the Pack. I make sure that everything runs smoothly. I manage the money and make sure that the Packhouse is clean and has enough food for everyone. I learned that besides
Derek's POV (Earlier that day)"Hey Derek, are you busy?" Jason asked as he walked into my office."No, come in," I said, and he sat on the chair across from me. I was hoping he was here to accept becoming my Gamma. Jason was of Beta Blood, but Jace was my Beta and had been loyal to me even when his family betrayed me.After Landon saved me from the Vampires and Rogues by sneaking back into Blood Moon territory, I decided to let him go instead of killing him like I usually would have done a past Pack Member that returned to Parkland after being banished. He did save me, and we have known each other since birth. I know that if it weren't for Vivian being his mate and manipulating him, Landon would never have made the decisions he did. I just wished he would have realized she was playing him before he created them."Yeah, I thought about it, and I accept becoming Gamma. But, I have something I need to talk to you about, and I need you to keep it to yourself," Jason said."Okay, what's w
Rose's POV"mmm," I moaned I woke up to the feel of Derek's mouth sucking on my pussy. "Derek," I moaned as his finger went inside me while licked my clit.I put my hands in Derek's hair and moved my hips as he ate me out deliciously. He bent his finger and hit my g spot, causing my orgasm to hit me, making me cum in his mouth. He licked up all my juices happily and then kissed me on my lips, making me taste myself."Happy Birthday, Flower," he said, and the alarm went off. "Thank You," I said, still breathless from my orgasm. He chuckled, knowing the state I was in"Come on, let's get you ready for school," Derek said and picked me up bridal style and went to the bathroom."I still don't understand why you won't finish school at home," Derek saidWe were in front of the school, and Derek had been trying to convince me to finish school online because he didn't want me to stress while pregnant. He also didn't want to be away from me, and I felt the same way. It was hard to be away f
Rose's POV"Are you sure I look okay in this?" I asked"You look beautiful, Rose," Kate said"I look fat," I mumbled"You are pregnant, not fat, and you look amazing," Kayla saidWe were getting ready to go out to some club that Derek chose. He and Jace used to hand out there all the time. I didn't care which one we went to as long as I got to be with Derek.My problem was finding an outfit that fit me properly. Since the babies are growing faster than a human pregnancy, I am also getting bigger. I go shopping constantly but usually for comfy clothing, blue jeans, and t-shirts. I have some dressy attire for events Derek and I have to go to as Alpha and Luna, but none of them are for clubbing. "I feel like this dress is too small," I saidI had on a pink strapless short dress. It looked pretty, but I didn't feel it fit me right."Why do you think that?" Lacy asked"Because my stomach is showing," I said, turning for her to see what I was talking about"Rose, you are pregnant; it's sup
Derek's POV"Derek Jace's mom has a gun and is trying to kidnap Kate and me," Rose said through mind-link"Where are you now," I linked back"She is taking us through the back door. She said the bullets are laced with wolfsbane," I quickly stood and ran to the back door. I mind-linked Jace, letting him know his mother was here and what was happening. When I got there, I saw Veronica walking behind Rose, and Kate headed toward a car."Veronica, Let them go," I growled, and Veronica turned toward me, giving Rose enough time to turn and lift her body toward Veronica. She raised her hand and made the gun fall out of Veronica's hand. A man in his forties jumped out of the car and grabbed Rose's arm. I growled as I went over to where he was and grabbed him by the neck. He released Rose's arm, and I threw him to the floor. "Take him to a cell," I said, and two guards grabbed the man and leftTake Veronica to a cell as well," I said, looking at Veronica. I couldn't believe she would try t
TWO WEEKS LATERRose's POVI woke up to see Derek not beside me in bed. I looked at his pillow, saw a note, and picked it up."FlowerI am sorry for not being there when you woke up; I know I feel that since you followed my traditions, it is only fair for me to follow the ones you grew up with as well. Since it is bad luck for the bride and groom to see each other on the wedding day before they walk down the aisle, I made sure I was out of our house before midnight. Kate, Kayla, Your mom, and Mine should be there when you wake up.I love you, Flower, and can't wait to see you at the alterLove, DerekI couldn't help the tears that escaped my eyes from reading that. I placed the letter on the nightstand and decided to take a shower. After I was done showering, I put on some blue jeans and one of Derek's black shirts. While brushing my teeth, there was a knock on the door. I looked out the window to see Kate, Kayla, My mom, and Aunt Lisa in the front yard. "Good morning Sweetie," my mo
Derek's POV"He will never take my mate," I growled "He is Chloe's father and old. That is so gross," Jason said "He and nobody else will take what's mine," "Hey, I am just telling you what I heard. I thought you would like to know that some old guy is saying that he wants to make your mate his," Lance said "Why would you risk your life to tell me this?" I askedHe obviously wanted something."I thought you would never ask. I was wondering if I could crash here for a while. Not in a cell but on your Territory. Some of the Rogues don't like me much," "I wonder why," Jason said, and I rolled my eyes"Why would I let you stay here?" "Because I will tell you everything else that I know," "This is ridiculous. How do we even know that he even knows anything else?" Jason asked"You'd be surprised what you learn from being a Rogue. For instance, I know that your old Beta, Jace, helped his mom escape your Pack after attempting to kidnap your Luna. I also know that his mother is working
