Dean: I watched as Arianna got up from the couch to freshen up as I told her while I walked out of the room after picking up my clothes and extra toiletries that I had in my travel bag. The woman didn’t know that I had a different suit within my same floor and area, but that was something that I didn’t plan on informing her about just yet. It was a locked three bedrooms that I kept to ensure that my children, when I had them, got to stay in front of me, giving us our own privacy in our suite. No one was allowed in except for the maids that I assigned to clean the whole floor. I smiled at the sight of the room as I opened the door, my heart swelling as I realized that my child would be staying here in a few months. This room was going to be the nursery first before it turned to an actual bedroom as the baby grew older. I knew that I would be giving my children their own suites when they’ve passed their early teenage years, it would give them their privacy when they needed it, but I w

Dean: “It is expected for them to argue.” I said, answering Nikolai who was at the pack. The man wanted to go to the living room earlier only to hear my mate and sister arguing. And though it was something that I hoped against, I wasn’t dumb; these were two strange women with one another. I doubted that Irina was going to leave Arianna without causing a fuss, and knowing Arianna, I knew that she wouldn’t stand if it was hell standing in her face, telling her to stop. “I have to admit, your mate’s personality is a lot stronger than we all thought that it was. She made even Irina speechless.” He said and I chuckled. “She is going to be causing us a lot more trouble, that is one thing that I know very well.” I said, shaking my head at the idea. “Just be sure to keep the two of them from killing one another until I am back and I’ll be taking care of them when I am back.” “Don’t worry, they won’t do that under my watch.” He said and I hummed in response as I read through the papers th

Dean:“Dean, the two of us know that you bringing your mother into this is going to cause us more trouble than we can afford. Needless to say, you know that she hasn’t accepted the woman being around you to begin with.” Dad said and I nodded, agreeing to his statement. It was something that I knew and my main concern right now, but I knew that I had to find a way to compromise with both her and dad about this.“I know, but it is too dangerous for you two to stay here…”“You know for fact that I can defend her and myself, Dean. If anyone has taught you your skills, it was me.” He said and I smiled. I took his hand in mine and kissed his knuckle as a manner of respect. I knew that I wouldn’t be who I was today if it weren’t for him and his patience with me. The two of us have had our differences when I was a kid and my early teenage years, but the older I grew, the more I understood that he simply wanted what was best for me.“I know, old man. But that doesn’t mean that I would be comfo

Dean: “How is she?” I asked, frowning as I stood up from the desk that I was sitting at. Mom and dad who were with me when I got the initial call from Nikolai waited for me to hear about what happened. “She is at the infirmary right now. The baby is safe, but she was on the verge of losing the baby.” He explained and I frowned as I ran my fingers through my hair. “What the fuck happened between her and Irina? Why would Irina be hitting her like that? Hell, what gives her the right to think that she could insult the pack’s Luna by raising a hand on her in front of the pack members?” I asked, frowning as my anger got the best of me. “Marcellus said that Irina kept trying to discriminate against her in front of the pack. Arianna wouldn’t have it and she told her off. Victoria said that when she tried to leave, Irina wouldn’t have it and ended up getting physical.” He explained and I took a deep breath to calm myself down, not wanting to lose my calm demeanor as I knew that things woul

Dean:I knocked on the infirmary door before opening it. I walked inside and watched as Nikolai stood up to look at me. He nodded at Arianna who was asleep, her heart calm and her stance somewhat relaxed. “How is she?” I asked, my voice above a whisper. “She is okay, we had them giving her painkillers to rest. The baby is fine, but she is seriously going to need to take care of the fact that she has to stay out of all stress.” He said, his voice as low as mine was as he looked at my sleeping mate. She was curled under the blanket with an IV on her wrist, there was no need for a heart monitor, we could easily hear her heartbeat, but the fact that she’s been through this much stress was something that I didn’t like. “Irina?” I asked, and he looked down at his feet, avoiding my eyes. I didn’t need to think twice to know that he was going to tell me something bad, and listening to her room, I knew that she was banging on the door, clearly knowing that we’ve arrived.“She broke most of
