Zaya POVWe were right on time with getting Annas home all packed up. Alpha Brax was successful with the Elders and his business came to a conclusion yesterday. Which meant, the Half Moon Pack would be leaving almost immediately. All that was left to do was to say goodbye.Last night we threw a big party in the open field next to our home. The entire pack came out to celebrate Anna and her union with Trent. We also spent a little time saying our goodbyes to the Half Moon Pack. There was food, music, and several bonfires to keep the fall chill away. There were also tears and laughter. We danced and partied until the sun came up. It almost reminded me of the festival I attended on my first night with the Blood Moon Pack. I hoped it was just as Anna imagined and that she was pleased.Tonight, her last night with us, we gathered to say goodbye one last time. Though this time it was just family. Because we were in fact her family. Who knows how long it would be before we would see her ag

Godric POVThe dinner had long since ended. After Anna left, my mother gave us quite a long talk about duty and honor. I couldn’t wait for it to be over. I couldn’t wait to be alone with my mate.There was only one question coming to my mind. Only one thought, which I voiced as soon as we entered the comfort of our own room. “I thought you told her the other day.”Zaya stood opposite me on the other side of the room. “Well, I didn’t. Okay.” She folded her arms and started to pace back and forth.“Why are you upset? This is what you wanted right?”“What I wanted?” She paused to get a better look at me. “I didn’t want one of my closest friends to feel alienated in front of everyone she loves.”I sighed, “I didn’t want that either. And that is not what I meant.”With her arms still folded, she shifted onto her other foot. “Oh. You meant me wanting the world to know that I’m pregnant.”I simply nodded.“Why did you have to call her out like that? It could have been any one of us to tell.

Zaya POVLuna Ariel was not exaggerating when she said that we had a lot to do. Godric and I met with her the next morning to discuss everything we should have done the moment I was pregnant.“I remember being pregnant with Godric like it was yesterday. His father laid out all the bells and whistles for me.” She said aloud.Godric let out a sigh. “Mother, please. Just tell us what we need to do.” I assume his frustration had less to do with her rambling and a lot more to do with how bad he felt about his lack of whistles.She huffed. “There really should be an Elder hear for this. If for no other reason than ensuring I don’t miss anything.”This was the moment he would tell her that I asked to sit with his mother first before meeting with the Elders. I insisted on having my first real pregnancy conversation with her before having it with anyone else. It just felt right.He replied, “Mother, we can meet with the Elders later.”“Alright. Alright.” She said while finally taking a seat on

Zaya POVThings were moving fast. We had two days to prepare after Godric and Alex spoke to the Elders. Godric and I talked every night about what we would say, and what we weren’t going to say. How are we going to announce the expected pup. And the exact words we would avoid using.He made sure to drill in my head that we weren’t going to discuss any details surrounding the day or time that I got pregnant.I tried to tell Godrick that no one was going to ask about the details of how we became pregnant, but he wanted to cover all our bases.We agreed to not reference anything about the rogue pack. Or Evander. Nothing that would suggest this baby was conceived directly after my return. Nothing to suggest the pup was conceived the night of my Luna crowing ceremony.Audrey helped me pick out a nice simple white dress that flowed around my waist so no one could see my baby bump and assume I was further along than I what we wanted them to believe. The dress she chose was really nice.“Are

Audrey POVInside the walls of our secluded town, chaos bloomed. Today began the preparations for a great celebration and everything had to be perfect. String lights were being hung from every building. Red and white ornamental lanterns decorated every tree.Or at least they were supposed to. The ornaments were missing. No one knew anything about anything. It was like they were purposely giving me a hard time. Everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong.So far, half the prepped food disappeared over night. Someone dropped the cake, which actually showed up to the big house completely wrong. Someone ordered orange flavored cupcakes, when I specifically ordered traditional chocolate and vanilla. The three, not four bonfires that I requested, were stacked with aspen wood, instead of oak to burn brighter and longer.The ceremonial flower crown Zaya was going to wear was missing. The cherry wood throne chair Godric commissioned from our resident carpenter wasn’t ready. And to to

Zaya POV A group of young kids met me by the entrance of the house. They were so young. No older than eight. Two of them grabbed my hands, while the others took hold of my flowing white dress. Together they led me to glowing fields not far away. The entire time, they laughed and giggled. At what, I have no idea. Maybe it was out of pure excitement. Maybe they had just finished a thrilling game and were still filled with adrenaline. As we approached, the shouting voices and laughter from the party started to dwindle. The music stopped and soon the only sound that could be heard was the raging fires. Everyone turned to face us. They all stared with big smiles as the children led me closer. I began to focus on the path before me. The children one by one fell away until there was one. A little red head girl, wearing a red and blue dress. I noticed we were approaching my family. Both of my parents and his mother stood to the left of the pathway. Godric, Audrey, and Alex stood to the r

POV Godric1 Month LaterIt took too long to get a response from Mason. He accepted the letters from the messengers that I sent to his territory, though he wouldn’t let them go past the border.I don’t blame him for being cautious, but I don’t appreciate my people not being able to gather any details.And I also don’t appreciate Mason’s lack of response. The first two letters, my people returned empty handed.The third letter, my people returned with a promise that he would call soon to talk.The elders were getting antsy and so was I. I expected a phone call within the week, but nothing.Then I realized, he was definitely stalling. He didn’t have a number to call. Every time we met with Evander, it was face to face. And agreeing to meet for the truce was done by letter.So I sent one last letter requesting him to meet on neutral ground today.We had much to discuss. The recent foot traffic from rogues was growing by the week and none of the surrounding Alpha’s were happy.Though none

Godric POVTensions ran high as the Elders debated Mason’s intentions. They held a meeting less than an hour after our return.Elder Grey yelled across the room. “We cannot assume they will start another war!”Elder Elias responded, “We cannot assume they will do nothing to avenge Evander.”One by one, they all started to shout over each other.“We’re talking about rogues here. They aren’t trained enough to lead a large-scale attack.”“You don’t need training to shift or carry a weapon.” Another said.Others agreed with him.“And you don’t need a sign from the Moon Goddess to know Alpha Mason is planning something.”Alex’s ears perked up at that comment.Elder John spoke up, “How are you going to defend the pack and we have yet to find out how Evander crossed our borders unprotected.”More whispers and more voices echoed in the room.The Elders were angry and impatient, but so was I. This unruly conduct wasn’t helping matters. Remembering my fathers words to keep the Elders in order,
