Zaya POVMy stomach was beginning to turn flips. The ice cream was not settling on top of all that Italian food Tari cooked. I’d eaten my way through a second and third plate once everyone left the table. Once I was alone, there was no need to hide my growing appetite.Godric kept giving me strained looks as he said good night to Luna Tari and Audrey. Then again when he decided to invite Alpha Brax to his office.The growing distance between us only made me want to eat more. That’s how I ended up stress eating a third of a gallon of ice cream.Godric was probably wondering why I didn’t tell him about Anna. And I found myself wondering should I have told him. Did it or would it have made a difference?I filed those questions in the back of my mind to ask Luna Ariel later. Maybe she could school me on better communication with my Alpha.I laughed a little as I thought to myself. ‘Maybe they should make that a New Luna Course for all newly made Luna’s.’I heard Alpha Brax leaving the hou

Zaya POVThe next morning I awoke to an empty room. Just me and the sun beams bouncing off the windows. I checked the clock next to our bed. It was well past breakfast time. I’d been finding it harder and harder to wake up in the morning now that I was sleeping for two.This time I didn’t bother rushing to get ready. I’m sure by now, the guys have made up some good reason why I couldn’t join them.I rolled over in the bed to face the window. The view was still beautiful, even though the November air already begun to turn the leaves orange and yellow.Though I didn’t need to see the trees to know a change in weather was coming. I could feel it in the air the past few nights. The air just a little more chiller than usual. It even made the ice cream a little harder to swallow. Though that didn’t stop me.I lay there for another hour thinking about last night. I touched my stomach as it did flips at the thought of Godric.We lay in the water with my back against his chest, not saying a wo

Godric POVAudrey was blocking the door, and my brother was standing there dumb founded. Aurey on the other hand looked angry and concerned.I was about to see history in the making. I could think of two records my brother was about to set today.I was sure he was about to be the first male to slam a door in his mates’ face. His hands gripped the doorknob so tight that I could see his hand turning white. I knew he was fighting the urge to do it and be done with whatever this was. And if he didn’t close the door in Audreys face, the two of them might be the first mates to come to blows right here in an Alpha’s office. I could just imagine Audrey taking the first swing and she looks like she lands a hard blow.Chris told me she has excelled past half our army in training. So of course, I felt bad for my brother.I know Alex hadn’t prepared himself for this conversation. None of us had. Even though we all knew this day was coming sooner than later, we were not prepared.Maybe because w

Zaya POVI patted the space on the bed beside me for Audrey to take a seat. She hesitated and I understood why.She didn’t know what we were about to tell her, and after all that she had been through, she knew to brace herself.“Please sit, Audrey.” I cradled my stomach and pushed out a smile. The pain was nowhere near gone, but it was far from gut wrenching.As soon as she took a seat, she said, “Okay. What is going on? All month, the two of you have been acting weird. And I have been trying to place why.” She pointed to me and Alex.Alex’s lips parted to say something, but I interrupted. “You are right. We have and I’m sorry.”Alex and Godric both looked at me. Maybe surprised at my apology. They probably just expected me to spill the tea, but I needed her to know how sorry I felt. I’ve never wanted to keep anything from her.I stared deep into her eyes as I spoke for all of us. “We are all sorry, Audrey. We have been lying to you but for a good reason. Trust me.”“Lying to me?” She

Alex POVIn the quiet corners of our harmonious room, a palpable shift had taken place, leaving a lingering sense of distrust in the heart of my mate.She’d been pacing the room since we left Zaya to rest. Godric had stayed behind for obvious reasons. He needed to keep an eye on her and to give us time to discuss the news.Audrey had taken the news pretty well at first but by the way her feet are digging into the carpet, she wasn’t taking it as well as she let on across the hall.Her raised voice broke through the silence, “Weeks? You’ve known for weeks?” She shook her head as if she were repeating her own words inside her head.We were safe to speak freely in the walls of our own room. No one else was on this floor of the Alpha house except my brother and Zaya. The guards had been ordered to post at the bottom of the first landing instead of his office door.“For weeks, you had known she was pregnant, and you said nothing to me?” I could hear the disbelief growing in her voice.Audre

Zaya POVI awoke from my nap feeling a lot better. As soon as I tried to shift from my side to my back, I was met with Godric’s broad back.Some weeks ago, Godric began to sleep facing away from me. I wasn’t sure why, but seeing his back in the morning instead of his face actually hurt. Like a small pain deep in my soul.Questions would swim around my head, like annoying fish. Was he tired of seeing my face in the morning? Did he wish to sleep alone? Did I annoy him some kind of way?It hurt to think he no longer wanted to see my face I the morning.And now, seeing his back again, but this time in the afternoon, I realize it is not just seeing me in the morning.I rolled all the way over and shoved him until he woke.“I’m up. I’m up.” He growled with a raspy voice.“Good because we need to talk.”He shot up, half awake. He stared at me for a moment. “No, you need to rest.”Godric fluffed my pillow and then repositioned his pillow before laying back down.“Godric. Please. I need to spe

I would never admit it aloud, but today was more than I could handle. And I still had more to come. First Zaya got sick. Which is probably normal with any pregnancy. Though inside, it hurt me to see her that way. Bent over in pain and unable to truly offer her any comfort. Then Audrey finds out our secret. And now I had to agree to letting Anna in on it. Which is dangerous itself. She just mated with a wolf that is not from our pack. I had a hard enough time making sure my brother didn’t tell his mate who is one hundred percent loyal to my mate. I wasn’t lying when I said we all trust Anna. But soon, she will be a part of her mate’s pack. Eager to win their approval and trust she could fold under pressure and give in. Sure, Alpha Brax is loyal to the invisible crown I wear, and he has always claimed to be loyal to my family as well. But only time will tell if someone is really who they claim to be. With all this on my mind, I still must deal with the update Crane was about to g

Godric POVSo, Mason chose his sister. I guess that shouldn’t concern me. Alex is my brother and my Beta. The moment that I knew I was going to be Alpha King, I knew Alex would be my Beta.Who better to trust with your pack and your life than my own blood?I sat back in my seat. “Maybe she wanted to get the lay of how things are done after stepping into her new role. That isn’t odd for a new Beta or even Alpha to do things like that.” I said.With a steely gaze, Crane moved closer to my desk. Leaning in for emphasis. “Or maybe, she wanted to see who was going to be there. You still must consider that the rogue pack didn’t bring anything to trade. Could be that they had nothing to trade. But then again, why buy everything and bring a truck in expectance to do so. My assessment is that they are planning something.”That was my assessment too. My mind trailed off thinking about why Mason’s sister tagged along with probably some low-level pack members. We attended the first trade. But tha
