I shifted quickly into my wolf form, a surge of power and adrenaline coursed through my veins, fueling my determination to protect my children at all costs. My bruised and battered body from the previous encounters with my uncle made me feel weaker than I had ever felt before, and I struggled to match the strength of Vincent's lycan form.With a fierce growl, I lunged at my uncle wolf, its disfigured form not stopping it from snapping and clawing at me. I knew better than to allow my neck get caught under his canine as we fought for supremacy.Vincent's wolf was larger and more muscular, and he used his size advantage to overpower me, landing vicious stab with his sharp claws and snapping jaws. I tried to evade the attacks, but I was slower and less agile due to my injuries, and each strike sent waves of pain through my body.As the fight continued, my vision blurred with pain and exhaustion. I could feel my energy draining with every passing moment, and my hope of winning this fight
"Uncle Lin!" Emily cried out, her voice filled with emotion as she fell into my arm, her brother closely behind her.I held them close, reassuring them that they were safe now as I hugged them to my chest. "You're both alright," I whispered, my voice shaking with emotion. "I promise you, I won't let anyone hurt you ever again. It’s all over now."I pulled back after a while so I could look at both their faces, Emily had a little bruise around her wrist right where she was bond with restraints. Ethan turned out tougher than I though but above all, I was grateful a little bruise here and there was all they had sustained.“Where is Mom?” Ethan had asked, looking around.I ran my finger through his hair as I stare him in the face, finally seeing myself in his eyes as they reflect a familiar blue color.“We're going home to see Mom" I told them both, my heart swelling with love for my children. "You'll see your mom, and everything will be alright."With Emily and Ethan by my side, I began
Meghan's POV.It’s been a month since I got discharged from the pack’s clinic and things were starting to return back to normal again. I have my kids with me and I was lying next to the man who has proven himself over and over again that he was exactly the man he says he was.After all we went through with Zack and that horrible man that turned out to be his uncle, Lin has been super protective about I and the kids, never letting us out of his sight without the lingering presence of a guard.Rachel has become my shadow as far as I know and I can’t even dare to complain, not with how much she had helped cared for mw and the kids. My mother had practically disappeared into thin air even though sometimes I see her making hasty appearances in my dreams with a sham of apology after trying to kill my mate and kids.I heard Lin muttered in his asleep and caress his arms soothingly before I felt him release with his chest rising and falling steadily. I couldn’t sleep, not with the nagging voi
Once breakfast was eaten, and the kitchen was filled with the lingering aroma of pancakes, Lin took my hand in his and looked into my eyes with the love I have always witness in them."Meghan," he began, his voice gentle yet filled with purpose, "will you do me the honor of officially becoming my mate and our pack's Luna?"My heart soared with joy, tears of happiness filling my eyes. "Yes, Lin," I replied with a nod, my voice full of emotion. "It would be an honor mate."With a smile that lit up the entire room, Lin leaned in, and our lips met in a sweet and tender kiss. It was a moment of pure love and acceptance, sealing our bond in a way that words could never fully express.In the weeks that followed, Lin and I found ourselves basking in the joy of our reunited family. The love between us seemed to grow stronger with each passing day, and we cherished every moment we spent together. We also rutted like rabbits since Rachel was there to take care of the kids but that is neither her
After the ceremony, I was only able to pack very little things, mainly my make up and some lingerie Rachel had gotten for me at the last minute.While Leon and Rachel promised to watch over our kids and pack while we are away, I was still worried but Lin was certain everything will turn out great under their care.Lin had made reservation for us to spend our honeymoon away in Hawaii. I was filled with dread and anticipation as we drove through the beautiful island, the sky was fairly warm by this time of the year.Clear blue cloudless sky with the sun shinning brightly on my face as I leaned back against the headrest of my seat. The air smells of coconut with a hint of Jasmine.My heart swells with so much love as I gaze at Lin's face. He looked especially handsome today with the wind blowing his hair. As though he could feel my gaze on him, he turned to smile at me, his eyes glistering as he grab my hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.“We are almost there, love”I nodded, returning hi
A month had passed since we returned from our honeymoon yet a lingering unease had started to claw its way into our lives. The connection between Lin and me remained strong, but I couldn't ignore the subtle shift in his demeanor. He was still tender and loving, but an unspoken weight seemed to burden his shoulders.His laughter no longer rang out as easily as before, and the light that once danced in his eyes had dimmed, replaced by a distant contemplation. I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, that something lurked beneath the surface of his composed exterior. But every time I ventured to ask him about it, his face would close off, a curtain of secrecy descending between us.One evening, as the sun began to dip below the horizon, casting a warm glow over our pack grounds, I found Lin standing by the edge of the forest. The way his gaze was fixed on the trees, his fingers idly tracing patterns in the dirt, told me that his thoughts were far away. Gathering my courage, I
As the weeks passed, the unspoken shadows persisted, casting a somber hue over our days. Lin's anxiety remained palpable, his smile often fleeting. I spent my days by his side, finding comfort in our moments together, even if the depth of his pain remained hidden from me. Each time his fingers brushed mine, I could sense the weight he carried, something he was trying to sort through.One night, I woke to find our bed empty, the moonlight casting a soft glow over the room. A knot of worry tightened in my chest as I realized Lin was nowhere to be found. Clutching the fabric of my nightgown, I ventured out of our chambers, my steps quiet as I navigated the familiar corridors.My heart guided me to his study, a place that I had realized was pretty much a sanctuary for him. I approached the door, my hand poised to push it open, but before I could take that step, the door swung open, revealing Lin standing before me, his expression a mix of surprise and concern."Meghan," he said, his voic
Minutes after that I watched with a mixture of pride and wistfulness as Ethan and Emily bounded off, their energy and excitement radiating outward for all to see."Be good, you two!" I called after them, waving with a smile.Ethan turned back and gave me a thumbs-up. "Don't worry, Mom! We'll make you proud!"I chuckled, my heart swelling with affection for my spirited children. "I have no doubt you will."As they disappeared around the corner, Lin approached, his gaze lingering on their retreating figures."They're growing up so fast," he mused, a hint of nostalgia in his voice.I nodded, wrapping an arm around his waist. "I know. It feels like just yesterday they were taking their first steps."Lin's fingers found mine, his grip gentle and reassuring. "They'll be just fine with Leon."I leaned into his side, finding comfort in his presence. "I know. It's just hard not to worry."He pressed a kiss to my temple, his warmth seeping into me. "You're a wonderful mother, Meghan. The kids a
