Everly's POV

“How long has she been feeling unwell?”

“Since the last full moon.” I nod a little, running a hand across the hot forehead of the young wolf in front of me.

“Has she met her mate yet?” I flick my eyes up to the mom, who shakes her head viciously.

“No, she would tell me about that.”

“Right.” My eyes float down to the fourteen year girl old curled up in the doctor's waiting room. She had come in a couple hours ago, but because she was only complaining of mild discomfort and stomach pain, she wasn't made a priority. I was waiting for the doctor to bring Eli and Ella back from getting their shots, so I figured I would see if there was anything I could do for this uncomfortable girl.

She’s currently staring at me, a message clear in her eyes. I raise a brow at her, and press my lips together.

“She’s fine. You can take her home, but you two need to have a conversation about why you won’t let her be with whoever her mate is.” The mother gasps, and the daughter quickly jump

  • The Chosen Luna's True Mate   Chapter One Hundred and Five

    Twenty minutes later, I was sitting in Sebastain’s old office, me in his chair, him on the other side of the desk. It was a weird feeling, to be looking at him from this perspective. My first instinct was to give him his chair back, but then I realized how weak that would make me look, so I fought against it. He hadn’t said anything to me since we’d come face to face, but he also hadn’t taken his eyes off of me. A few of his old pack members, mostly members from the guard, had surrounded him and started asking him questions. Where had he been, what had he been doing? Was he back for good, if not, then why was he here? Some of them were irritated sounding, and betrayed, still feeling the burn from his disappearing act. Some were curious and maybe a little hopeful he was making a comeback. I tried not to linger on that too much, reminding myself things had been a bit rocky since I’d taken over. It was only natural they’d miss the strong leader who had carried them to the top of the wer

  • The Chosen Luna's True Mate   Chapter One Hundred and Four

    So much paperwork. File upon file. Page upon page. It seemed like everytime someone so much as took a pack of crackers from the supplies closet I was made to fill out a form. I mean it was one of the reasons this pack was so financially stable, because no dollar was left unaccounted for. But being the one in charge of maintaining that level of thoroughness kind of sucked.It had been three days since our little encounter with the confrontational wolves at our borders. Today was supposed to be the day Killian would bring the twins by for some play time with me, but because of the growing tension, I had told him not to come. The same men had been seen multiple times lingering near the border late at night, sneaking around, probably trying to find a weak spot in the guard system. But because of their presence, I’d only increased the number of guards we had on the borders, and made sure we had a twenty four seven rotation of wolves keeping a close eye. The other’s have been very cooper

  • The Chosen Luna's True Mate   Chapter One Hundred and Three

    “Having any morning sickness? Lower back pain?” “No throwing up so far, and no more than usual.” I answered the obstetrician who was currently asking me questions as she tried to get a picture of the baby inside me. I was laid back in one of their sticky, plastic covered seats, my shirt lifted and my pants unbuttoned. “That’s great. Let me know if anything changes, okay?” I nod, giving her a tight smile as my eyes flick back to the sonogram screen.“Anything?” I ask. “Mmm it won’t be the best image because it looks like your baby is hiding from us, but I can get you one today. If you’d like.” She says, stopping her sonogram probe that had been gliding over my exposed belly to show me the small, barely recognizable life form inside me. The image was black and white, grainy too. I remember when I had gotten one for the twins I had been so excited at any chance of seeing them at all. Now I was wondering when they were going to get some better equipment for this medical facility, becau

  • The Chosen Luna's True Mate   Chapter One Hundred and Two

    Three days later and I was starting to get nervous that Beatrice wasn’t actually going to accept my offer. I guess I just kind of assumed most, if not all wolves would jump at the opportunity to be Alpha. Even though I myself was in the middle of trying to hand off the title to someone else. Either way, I’d pretty much expected her to sleep on it, and come back the next day, full of energy and ready to lead her people. I was not expecting her to go full on ghost on me, avoiding me everytime I came within fifty feet of her. I had spotted her across the training grounds just now, and had waved to her as I began to approach. She had quickly turned to one of the other guards she’d been with, said something, and darted off into the trees before I had time to talk to her. So I was currently just lingering around the training grounds, waiting to see if she’d come back. If she didn’t want the Alpha spot, that was fine, I guess. But I needed to know for sure before I moved onto someone else

    “You’re kidding, right?” Beatrice asks me after a moment of staring at me with a slack jaw. I consider, then shake my head “Seems like a weird thing to kid about.” I say earnestly.She laughs a little incredulously, shaking her head. “Why?” She finally asks. I shrug a little. “Well, I don’t know you well enough quite yet to completely hand it over to you, but from what I’ve seen so far, I’m at the very least interested.” She looks like she’s having a hard time believing my words, which I really don’t understand. She seems strong, physically and mentally. Seems smart and knowledgeable about her pack. People seem to listen to her, respect and look up to her. I still wanted to get to know her a little better to make sure she wasn’t going to make the personality shift all my previous candidates had made. But there was really good potential in her, that much I could tell for sure.“This just seems… out of nowhere.” She says, sitting back in her seat a little.“I mean, not really. I’ve b

    We walked into my office, Beatrice close behind as I held the door open for her. She mutters a quiet “thanks” and I move behind the desk as she plops into the chair on the other side.“So.” I say once we’re sat. “Tell me about yourself.” She raises her eyebrow a little, like she was expecting something else, which I’m sure she was. “Uh. I mean… What do you want to know?”She rubs at the back of her neck a little, looking suddenly awkward. “Anything. Where you grew up. What your parents are like, what you spend your time doing.” “Well. I grew up here, in Sebastian's pack. He… found me, after my pack was wiped out by a group of rogues.” Her face changes a little when she brings up her former Alpha, contorting into a pained, regretful expression. “I think I was seven when he found me. He was barely a teenager himself, but I still remember how big he had seemed to me when he’d first found me tucked away in a bush. I don’t even know how long I’d been hiding, but he’d said it looked like
