I added, “While she took me downstairs for that breakfast that was laced with a truth spell, she told me that I wouldn’t want kids after they had been used as a weapon against me.” Billy sighed, “I am so sorry you had to go through all that, Elisa.” I nodded to him, “It really kinda messed with my mind. She kept trying to tell me that Elliot would leave me, she told me that all mates do. I know better, but it felt like she was telling me the honest truth.” Billy looked me in the eyes, “She was telling you, her truth. That doesn’t mean it was yours.” I nodded, “I understand.” Taylor chimed in, “I’ve kinda been feeling the same way. What if I end up turning into a horrible mother? I can’t imagine abandoning a child in the middle of the forest, but that doesn’t mean I’m not capable of it.” Evan put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her to him, “You will never be like that, because you have a mate who will love you and cherish you forever. I could never imagine a single sc

I looked in the man’s eyes and saw nothing but happiness and is that love I see? Billy smiled, “Wade, I would like for you to meet your daughters, Elisabeth and Taylor. Ladies, this is your biological father, Wade Beard.” I smiled at him, “I am so happy to meet you, Wade.” Taylor smiled, “Same here. Elisa and I honestly thought our mother killed you.” Wade threw his head back and laughed a roaring laugh, that caused vibrations throughout our bodies and birds to take flight out of the trees. We could help laughing with him, even though we had no idea what we were laughing at. He reached out to us and Taylor and I ran to him. He wrapped his massive arms around both of us at the same time and gave us the most comfortable hug I think I have ever received. I never knew what a father’s hug felt like before, but this has to be it. It honestly made me start crying, which surprised even me. He must have sensed that I was crying and he asked, “Did I squeeze too tight?” I chuckled, “No

                                                                 Elliot POV Wow. Just. Wow. The last few days have been nuts. I damn near lost my shit when I found out that my mom allowed my mate to leave the castle unguarded. She had their driver, but that’s it. I know the threat of Dahlia is gone, but I can’t seem to shake the feeling that she still needs someone with her.  When she got back, I tried to make my excitement about the dress, rather than my paranoia.  I really hope I am just being paranoid. Then, over dinner, we start listening to stories of Dahlia and find out that Elisa’s and Taylor’s dad is still very much alive and well! Then we learn that Elisa is already a hybrid! I can’t help but wonder what this is going to do to her decision to have me change her. That would make for a ch

In the blink of an eye, we were in between the man and the girl. The girl was up against the tree, the entire front of her clothes shredded from the lashes of the whip. The entire front of her was bloody. She had two straps holding her to the tree: one around her legs and one just under her armpits. By now, she was unconscious. I just pray to the goddess she’s still alive. Before the man could lash her again, Taylor cast a protection spell on the girl and my dad charged the man with a loud, rumbling roar. Elliot took the whip away from him while Evan, Taylor and I took care of the girl. Dad had the man on the ground and was holding him by the throat, “What the fuck do you think you’re doing to this girl?” The man tried to talk, but dad chuckled, “Oops.” Dad moved his hand a little and chuckled, “Now, try again.” The first words out of the man’s mouth were, “Where did you come from?” Elliot growled, “That doesn’t matter. Who are you and why were you doing this to that poor gi

It has been a week since we took Hannah to Cold Springs Pack, and Luna Abby says she is doing great. I am so happy that she is finally getting a life that she deserves. Today, we are going there to testify to the council, now that Hannah is strong enough to handle the alpha’s punishment. I gathered everyone together, and we all teleported to Cold Springs Pack. Luna Abby and Hannah were outside, waiting for us. Luna Abby smiled, “It’s so good to see you again. I’m glad you made it. I know last time we met was a little too hectic. Would you mind introducing the mountain you brought with you?” I laughed, “Luna Abby, this is mine and Taylor’s biological father, Wade.” Luna Abby gasped in excitement, “You and Taylor are full sisters! And your father is alive!” Taylor and I laughed, “Dad, this is Luna Abby. Retired Luna of the Cold Springs Pack and originator of the multi species alliance.” Dad walked up to her and shook her hand, “It’s an honor to meet you, Luna.” Luna Abby smiled, “The
