LeviA couple of days after Betas Amber and Carlos arrived, we decided to go make our attempt to find Nigel and bring him and his daughters back with us.Since Amber didn’t get to spend a lot of time with Queen Lily when they first arrived and knowing Lily's family will be arriving soon for the birth of her first child, Amber and Hope decided to walk us to Araphyra.We stop, as we always do at the Troll Bridge to say hello to our friendly, neighborhood trolls and to show off our sons. They informed us that two of the troll couples are pregnant and will be having their own troll babies soon.“It feels like it’s always spring here in the fae lands, with pregnancies and babies everywhere you turn,” Amber says as we walk.Matthan has settled into a new eating routine and is now going two to two-and-a-half hours in between his nursing schedule. We called ahead to tell Queen Lily that we’d like to see Dr. Traeliorn while we’re here, rather than having Hope and Amber return on their own whil
HopeAfter putting our boys down last night, I was excited when Levi followed me into what I’m hoping becomes our bedroom. I’ve missed my mate so much and the idea of being with him again, of feeling his love wrap around me made me happy.When we got into bed, he curled up behind me, wrapped his arm around my waist, and kissed the top of my head.“Goodnight, Hope.”I could feel his body’s response to me, the same response that my body was having to him. Now that I’ve gotten some sleep, I actually feel capable of doing something other than passing out.“I’ve missed you, Levi,” I say, pressing against him.“I’ve missed you too, Hope, but this isn’t going to happen.”I stop moving. “Because you’re still angry with me?” I ask.He moves away from me and pulls me onto my back so he can look into my eyes.“Because we did this your way last time and it didn’t work for either of us. This time, we’re doing it my way. This time, you’re going to give me everything, your heart, mind, body, and soul
LeviI wake to the sound of people talking. I’m disoriented enough that it takes me a moment to realize I’m not in the packhouse, I’m in Eventide, in a castle that shouldn’t have anyone but me and Hope.I get up and quickly change my clothes, tuning into the conversation. When I hear Beta Amber’s familiar voice, I realize they arrived while I was sleeping. They’re in the nursery next door, so I walk over, seeing Beta Carlos holding LJ and Beta Amber rocking in the chair, giving Matthan a bottle.“Levi,” Beta Amber says, greeting me.“Hello, Beta. Sorry I wasn’t awake when you arrived,” I say, nodding at Beta Carlos.“Nonsense. Hope said you stayed up all night so she could get some sleep. Not to worry, now that Carlos and I are here, you should both be able to get some sleep.”I walk over to Carlos and kiss my son’s head.“He’s a big boy. Hope says he’s predominantly Alpha wolf,” he says.“Yes, and he eats like one,” I say, chuckling. I walk over to Amber, kissing her cheek before kiss
HopeI’m so used to having no free time in my day, that having Levi here, having the ability to let someone else feed my pups, is still taking time to sink in.After lunch, I pumped again, said goodbye to everyone, then Levi and I began the trek back to Eventide.“Tell me about your call with your mother,” he said as we walked. I did, then asked him about his conversation with Dad and my sisters about Nigel and their other sisters.“I think they’re going to call Orsa and tell her,” Levi says.“I need to call her anyway and see how she’s doing. I’m sure just being pregnant is stressing her out. Knowing she’s pregnant with twins is probably going to make it even more stressful for her.”“One thing at a time, Hope. Let’s get back and get the boys settled, then you can pump again while I begin setting up a bedroom for your parents.”“You’re going to set up the bedroom?” I ask, staring at him.“It’s not like I don’t know how to make a bed, Hope. I’ve lived on my own for several years, no om
LeviWhen Hope told me she’d be right back, fear had instantly taken hold. It’s going to take time for me to trust that she’s not running away from me again.I felt a tug of jealousy as I watched Artis and Bjork holding my sons. They’ve had more time with them than I have. But that’s all going to change now.I push the jealousy aside and sit across from them. They’re both good with my sons, talking to them and rubbing their faces against them.“We really are glad you’re here, Levi. Orsa may have been the most outspoken about it, but none of us believed that Hope should have kept her pregnancy from you.”“She shouldn’t have,” I say, and leave it at that. My issues with Hope are between the two of us.Bjorn walks in with his sprite mates a few moments later and I’m stunned at the transformation in him.“I’m glad you finally made it, Levi,” he says, walking up to greet me.I stand and shake his hand, staring at him. He’s obviously just shifted out of his bear form because he’s only wearin
HopeLearning to pump was strange but watching Levi give Matthan a bottle was more than worth it. I always knew he’d be a great dad. I just never thought that I could give him the pups I knew he wanted.‘But now we have. You have to stop thinking like you always have, Hope. You heard him. If we’re going to fix our bond, we have to fix our thought process,’ Qadira says.‘You mean I do.’‘We are one, Hope. What you do, impacts me. What you think, impacts me. We are not separate entities, even though we have a separate consciousness. I am as much to blame for our broken mate bond as you are.’‘No, you aren’t. I’ve always been the one who didn’t feel worthy of Levi.’‘But we are worthy. Do you see that now?’I look across the room and watch my mate feed our son.“I’m going to work very hard to believe it.’“The other thing that pumping will do,” Dr. Traeliorn says, pulling me away from my thoughts, "is helping us see exactly how much milk your sons are taking in. Just because Matthan is nu
HopeAfter a fun night with Levi, we slept a few hours before getting up to spend the last few hours at the beach before having to check out and head back to the pack. Now that I have my apartment in the city and I know that Alpha Liam is expecting me, I want to pack up my things and head in with hi
HopeI know my family loves me. They’ve always been very clear about that. They love me no matter what. But Levi? Levi understands me. It’s a subtle difference, but it speaks volumes about why the Moon Goddess chose him to be my mate. It also speaks volumes about why I think he’s too good for me.‘H
LeviMy life is perfect. The only thing that would make it more perfect is if Hope would have agreed to let me mark her. But I know my mate. She never expected to be worthy of a mate, even if I knew she was.I carry her out into the water, partly because I want to feel how Qadira responds in the wat
LeviOh goddess she tastes even better than I thought she would. When I feel Hope give in to our kiss, I deepen it, needing to taste more of her, needing to possess her, needing to claim her. I want her to know that I want her, love her, and need her in my life.I have no idea how long the kiss last
