Sorry for the short chapter, I had a busy weekend. Hope you liked it :)
Storm’s pov"Stop feeling so fucking nervous. You were born to do this, remember?" I told Aeryn, trying to help her."Don’t act like you’re not fucking nervous. I can feel your emotions, remember?" Aeryn replied. She always swore more when she was mad or agitated. Lately, she has been working on her swearing for Nivia. But I think it’s also because she doesn’t need that part of herself anymore. That voice inside her head, which was rebellious and held secrets, isn’t needed any more. Aeryn can just be herself."Who made you a therapist?" Brand asked, and I chuckled. "I know my mate better than I know my fucking self.""And I know you better," Brand joked, but he was probably right; he could look inside my head after all. "And you are nervous.""Don’t get me wrong, Schoonheid. I can’t wait to see you become Alpha, but it’s going to be a lot to adjust to. A whole fucking lot, especially since we’re going to be attacking the Blood Rock pack soon.""Do you think I should let you stay with N
Aeryn’s pov"Mommy loves you." I told Nivia before giving her as kiss."I love you too, mommy." Nivia replied and I took a deep breath to calm myself before going to work. Storm would take Nivia to Eve and Zayn’s house and would come join us later.It had been a few days since I had taken the title and while a lot had changed, inside the packhouse it had not. Mom and dad were still living here, since I didn’t want my brothers to have to move out a few years before their eighteenth birthday. Besides, I had missed my family for years, and I didn’t want to miss even more.Aunt Kat and aunt Sierra were thinking about moving out with their kids, although Isaac wasn’t really happy with the idea of leaving his best friends and cousins behind. And mom wasn't happy with the idea of her best friend moving out either, but maybe it would be good for my aunts to have their own place to start this new chapter of their lives. My parents had offered their room to Storm and me, but I liked our room. I
Aeryn’s pov"I am Brax, the son of former Alpha Braxton and the rightful heir of the Blood Rock pack. I am willing to give you one chance to lay your arms down and step away from this fight before you lose your life for a war that is not yours to begin with."Fuck! We never discussed this. This went against everything we talked about before coming here. Fucking stubborn bastard!For the last few days, we have been strategizing with Alpha Ari and Luna Kyra. Or Uncle Ari, as he wanted to be called, which was kind of weird considering I barely remembered the guy. But Elora and I started calling them aunt and uncle anyway, because they are family.Which is even more confusing. I mean, Luna Kyra is related to dad, and Alpha Ari is related to mom. Like a double family?"Get back to the point," Delta said. "The plan?"Yeah, so we figured that we would use the element of surprise since that fucker, Alpha Wesley, had hired a bunch of soldiers with guns. While at close range, a wolf was a lot mo
Storm’s povWe helped Brax and Elora for a few days, helping to bury the dead and fix any damage that had been done. Brax hadn't decided on a gamma yet, but he wanted me, Aeryn, and Rayan to spend a few days with the soldiers and see if we could start them on a new training program. Alpha Ari offered to have his gamma help out over the next few weeks as well.As much as we enjoyed helping Brax and Elora, Aeryn and I were both fucking eager to go home and see our daughter. This had been the longest we had been away from here, and while we got updates daily and short phone and video calls, it wasn’t the fucking same.I missed her scent and her little hands grabbing my hand when she wanted to show me something. Fuck, having Nivia in my life made me even angrier thinking about what Aeryn, Elora, and all the other girls at the school went through.Nivia is three, and that was the age at which Elora was taken. I would burn the fucking world down to find her, just like Asher had done.Having
Aeryn’s pov"Mommy!" Of all the names I had been called before, "Mommy" was the most special to me. Especially when it was being said by the cutest little three-year-old running towards us.Naturally, she had to hug Daddy first, being Daddy's little girl, but then I had Nivia's full attention. She told me all about the week she had while we were away. Apparently she had spent time with all her grandparents and great-grandparents; she had gone to the farm, had art class with Grandma Lily, and mom had given her some fun, colorful hairclips so she could look like her. Mom loved to rock different colors in her hair every month.It made me feel less guilty knowing how well taken care of she had been. This had been my first time away, but being an alpha meant I would be gone more often. And while I am aware that there is no substitute for parental love, the rest of my family came pretty damn close.Storm and I decided to give Riker the reigns for today and spend the whole day with our little
THREE YEARS LATERWhile being called "mommy" by Nivia is still my favorite name, being called another name came pretty fucking close."Alpha, how great to invite us!" An alpha I had not met before said, while looking directly at Storm and not me.Storm and I had encounters like this many times before, where they assumed he was the alpha and not me, and over the years we had developed an appropriate reaction.I would reel in my aura until one of those fuckers misspoke, and then Storm would say, "I am not the Alpha; she is. Meet Alpha Aeryn."And I would let all my alpha aura go, almost making it hard to breathe for the misogynistic fool.But I was 5 months pregnant with my baby boy by now, and my aura wasn’t as strong as usual, so instead I just let Storm have some fun.Storm growled at the alpha. "This is Alpha fucking Aeryn of the Iron River pack. You know, the one you’re currently visiting. Show some fucking respect before going to another pack and do your fucking research. And now f
Aeryn’s pov"It’s going to be okay, Aeryn."I rolled my eyes at my mate. "Really? You’re not the one that has to push that big ass head out of your dick!"Nivia was average size; she wasn’t small, but she was nothing like this baby. He was tall like his dad, and he had the big fucking head of his dad too. I was sure he was going to be a giant like Storm.Storm chuckled, and I raised my eyebrow. "Do you think it’s a good idea to laugh now? While I’m in labor? Think really fucking carefully about your answer, Storm, because I already hate you a bit right now."Storm got behind me and started massaging my back. "I know, krullebol. And you’re doing so well. You’re so beautiful, and you’re the best fucking Alpha and mother I know.""Flattery doesn’t work either," I growled, but I did enjoy the massage."You can push now," the doctor said after a few hours, and I wanted to say something snarky, but the pain was so intense that I was unable to speak.I just prayed to the fucking goddess that
hi! I'm in the car right now on the way to Disneyland Paris, and I had this idea in my head. so it is a rough draft, but wanted to get your input. i have most of the story figured out for airk and brax. but Argo not yet. he'll have a love-hate relationship with Mila, but that's all I got, lol.also still need a title.Brax's pov“Can’t they come another time?” I asked my beta Elora.“No, they have summer break now, and they haven’t seen me in months. I don’t get your problem anyway. You used to get along just fine.” Elora replied, raising her eyebrow.I loved my beta like a little sister, but she was way too observant sometimes and really noisy.‘You can tell her,’ my wolf Hudson advised, but I ignored him.Elora is the sister of our ally, Alpha Aeryn, and has two brothers. A set of twins that couldn’t be any different. They looked differently, they acted differently, and they loved different genders. While Argo was a womanizer, his brother Airk had come out as gay at a young age.I w
