Lily’s pov
Hearing that Osiris didn’t trust me enough to tell me the truth hurt at first. But when I thought about it I wasn’t sure if I could have lied the whole day. If I could have bit my tongue when Alpha Gabriel and Charlotte talked to me. Would my face have revealed the truth? Osiris told me that the pack wanted to get me out of the dungeon before he got here. I was really honored that they would go against Osiris and get me out. That they would risk their lives for me. Osiris would be giving a speech later today to clarify everything that happened, but he first wanted to check if Asher and I were okay. He carried Asher up to our room while Osiris held on to my shoulders. “I am so happy you’re both safe,” Osiris said “and I am so proud of your quick thinking. I knew you’d escape Alpha Gabriel.” I turned around as soon as we entered our room. “Can you hold Asher for a bit, while I take a shower. It was
Osiris’ pov Lily came home and I felt the surge of sadness come from her. I take it seeing Charlotte didn’t go well. I didn’t know how hard it was losing your mate, but I had my share of loss. The only reason I showed mercy was for Lily’s sake and really hoped it wouldn’t bite me in the ass. “My love, do you want to talk about it?” I said as I looked at Lily. “No, I just want to hold Asher and sniff his little head for now.” I handed Asher to her. We had spend the time she was away at my office. He laid asleep on my arm while I tried to type with my free hand. It went slow, but I didn’t care. Having him with me was worth it. I mindlinked Emma, maybe Lily would feel better sharing with happened with another sister “Lily just talked to Charlotte and seems upset. Could you come here?” Emma replied “Yes Alpha Osiris. I will be there soon.” She paused “thank you for always taking care of the pack and my little sister.” I smiled, happy Emma was a part of my pack and my fa
Lily’s pov It’s a month later and I still feel really bad for Charlotte. Some part of me is also angry at her, I wish she would see that Osiris did the right thing. In time I hope the pain of rejecting Gabriel will hurt less. Rejecting would hurt less than feeling your mate die right? “Yeah, rejecting hurts less than losing your mate.” Arya said, “but she didn’t just lose Gabriel, she lost her life as a Luna of a pack and she knows how wrong Gabriel was. I think it’s everything Lily. Just give her time. You have enough on your plate.” I did have a lot on my plate like Arya said. I was dealing with Asher who is now almost two months old and he is making more noises and he smiled for the first time. Like a real proper smile. I planned on going with Osiris everywhere he went, but I don’t want to bring Asher to the Dark Wood pack or the Blood River pack just yet. Not until everything has settled down. Getting everyone to bow down to Osiris hasn’t been easy. At least at
Chapter 86 Osiris’ pov I couldn’t wait for our date. It had been months that Lily and I had the whole night to ourselves. Not that I was complaining “it kind of sounds like you are though” Santos said. “Well, I did really miss being able to be with Lily without worrying Asher could wake up at every moment or waiting until Lily finished nursing him.” I replied. It’s worth it though and Lily are going to be together forever, so what are a few months without much sleep or sex. “You still miss it,” Santos chimed in. I couldn’t help but laugh “yeah, I still miss it.” I didn’t have Lily to myself for that long, but if I had to share her with anyone it would be my baby boy. Lily hadn’t told me where we were going, only that I should dress nicely. In her words “if I am finally going out after months I want to dress up for you.” I couldn’t wait to see her. My love was beautiful even with no sleep, pajama’s on and messy hair. But it was always special to see h
Lily’s pov Our date last week went great. I was so nervous to leave Asher, but once I knew he was safe and happy with Emma, I decided to focus my attention on my mate. We eventually managed to have sex in five different rooms, but my sexy lingerie only lasted two rooms. Being alone with Osiris was so great, but I also felt guilty for leaving Asher. Was this what it’s like to be a parent? You always feel guilty about something? This week however Osiris has been in a mood. It’s almost like he’s back to how we first met. He is avoiding me, barely talks to me and when he does it is in short sentences. It’s like his mind is somewhere else. I don’t know if I did anything wrong “even if you did do something. Osiris is an adult and he could just talk to you about it.” Arya said clearly annoyed by Osiris’ behavior. “Can’t you ask Santos what is going on?” I asked. “He says it’s personal. I am his mate. There is nothing personal anymore.” Arya said pissed off. “Just b
Osiris’ pov I had tried to avoid Lily as much as I could. I didn’t want to expose her to my mood. I thought I was doing a good job at hiding my feelings, but I was clearly mistaken. Every year I had this anger and guilt inside me when the anniversary of my parents’ death came closer. I thought having Lily would change things, I was dealing with my feelings. I wasn’t holding everything in, I had met my grandmother and uncle and I was happy. Why did this day still had such a hold on me? Lily’s touch made me stop thinking for a second. She was trying to relax me by kissing my neck, but it just made me want her. “You should really stop kissing me like that.” I said, not wanting to ruin the moment by getting turned on. Apparently Lily didn’t mind as she grinded against me, making me lose all self-control. We grinded against each other, until I couldn’t take it anymore. I picked Lily up and placed her on the table spreading her legs. Lily was wearing a long dress, I pulle
Lily’s pov I had no idea how much work planning a wedding was. From the moment Osiris had asked me to marry him I had thought about our wedding, but I just figured it would be a small ceremony and I would wear a cute dress. Like a bohemian forest wedding or something. Arya giggled at my thoughts “a bohemian forest wedding?” I replied “I don’t know. Werewolves usually don’t get married. All I know is from movies. I just want to promise myself to Osiris and then have a great party to celebrate his birthday.” I decided to talk to Mia, Jara and Emma about it. Maybe all the girls combined could come up with an actual plan. Asher was asleep so I mindlinked to meet me at the packhouse and I brought the baby monitor with me. “So you are going to wear white?” Jara asked. I didn’t really like the color white, but it was the thing people did at weddings right? “I guess?” I said, not really sure. Emma smirked “you know what we should do. We should ask mom to help. She i
Osiris’ pov Lily’s mom arrived yesterday and I spent most of the day in my office, hiding like a coward. They’re planning the wedding together and I should help, but I have no opinion on some of the choices they’re making. I don’t even know the difference between some of the colors they mentioned, I thought green was just green?! But no there is forest green, moss green, “just stop Osiris. I can’t hear about this anymore” Santos cried out. I guess he hated wedding planning even more than I did. All I knew is that I wanted Lily to be my wife, to have my last name so Asher and us all were a unity. I would have taken her last name if she rather chose that one, but I am happy she decided to go with mine. The thing I did get to choose for this wedding were my suit and the wedding bands. Lily seems to like my taste in jewelry, so she said I could chose them for the both of us. Today I am going to Mia’s store and then the human town close by to buy the rings and su
Lily’s pov My mother couldn’t stay long, although Charlotte was doing well, my mom still feared leaving her alone for too long. Apparently the first few weeks had been really rough, if it wasn’t for Amelia Charlotte might have hurt herself. I tried to apologize, but my mom stopped me “Lily I don’t blame you or Osiris. The only one to blame for this is Alpha Gabriel and Charlotte is slowly realizing this too.” She gave me a big hug “we are going to focus on you for these two days I am here and I only want to hear about the wedding and your future husband okay?” I smiled and hugged her tightly “thanks mom.” I really was grateful for my mom, but as soon as she pulled out a big binder and started asking me questions I started to regret inventing her. No way a wedding was this much work right? “We bought all the dresses yesterday, so today we are deciding the floral arrangement, the decorations for the party and the menu.” She paused, I thought she was done, but
