And Alpha Dean is angry... but I personally don't really blame him, do you?
Arianna: “Mama,” I called, walking around the empty house. The smell of cookies in the oven made my chest swell, it was something that mom always made for me when she wanted to give me a treat. Her presence always meant that there was food and dessert being cooked, and that was something that I loved. “Yes, baby girl?” She said, peeking her head from the kitchen’s door. I ran toward her and she smiled before lifting me in her arms. She was away with daddy for a few days, and I was at preschool when the two of them arrived. “You came!” I said, clapping my hands as I looked at her before she laughed and wrapped her arms around me. She kissed my cheeks, and purred as I giggled. “It seems to me that I have no place in that hug, do I?” Daddy said, making me squeal. Mom laughed and put me down before I ran to him. He was my hero, and though I didn’t know what it was that he did, I knew that he was always protecting the pack against those who wanted to hurt us. It was something that ma
Dean: I took a deep few breaths before entering the room where my mate was laying on the hospital bed. I had to admit, my anger was getting the best of me the more I thought of what happened, but I also knew that it was something that I was forced to deal with. To say the least, it was something that I dragged on myself when I let my guard down, and that was a reminder to me why I shouldn’t be doing so. However, the idea of her being my mate was something too surreal for me to believe and the fact that she would betray the bond was something that I wouldn’t have expected. But then again, for someone who masked her scent for months, lied and played a whole act, only choosing to admit when she saw that the humans would have been killed, I shouldn’t have expected any less from her. She looked up at me, her eyes meeting mine momentarily before I walked toward her as she curled up under the blanket. Her heart raced against her chest, and though she had a heart monitor, I didn’t bother
Arianna: I glared at the door for a second too long before shaking my head, knowing that at this point, I wasn’t going to be able to do anything about it. I clenched my fists, trying to control my anger as I did before shaking my head as I took a deep and slow breath. Not only was I held against my will with a stupid cuff, but I was also going to be dragged to my enemy’s home. “You brought this upon yourself, Arianna.” I muttered to myself as I looked down at my stomach. “Why didn’t I take the stupid pill when I was supposed to? Hell, it would have saved me a whole fuss. Sexual active or not, why the fuck did you not take the pill, Arianna?” I shook my head at myself. I was getting angry with myself over something that I wouldn’t have predicted, but that was the main mistake that I had. I didn’t put different plans IF things went wrong, and it wasn’t me being pregnant that was wrong. It was the fact that I created a monster out of the man that I was supposed to call father. And
Dean: “You do realize that you are going to be a lot easier than your mother is, right?” Dad asked and I shrugged. “At this point, it didn’t really matter. She made her choice when she chose to lie to me, and that is something that she will be paying for.” I said, and dad smirked. “I am going to ask you this question, as your father and Alpha, Dean.” He said, making me frown in confusion. "I do believe that you remember how your mother and I met. It was a story that we told you a thousand times.” “She almost killed you to ensure that her father became Alpha.” I said and he smiled and nodded. “She was loyal to her family and her cause, and that is exactly what that woman inside there is.” He said, making me frown in confusion. “I am not going to defend her as I do not know the real story behind her stealing the necklace. But I am going to remind you that IF I judged your mother the way that you are judging her at the time; neither you nor Irina would be born right now.” “She caus
Arianna:I got up from bed, frowning as my shoulder ached, but I knew that I couldn’t lay on this bed forever. The fact that I had nurses on my head on an almost hourly basis was something that annoyed me, but I also knew that it was because the Alpha asked them to be. Being as intolerant as I was, I knew that whatever painkillers they were going to give me, they were not going to do me good. I would need more to keep the pain from waking me up at night, and that was something that I knew very well.I sighed and walked to the bathroom, I needed to freshen up and wash my face after all the crying. And Dean’s mother didn’t make the stress that I was in any better. If anything, she simply treated me like carrying the child was my fault. The one thing that I was thankful for about her entering the room that night was her removing the cuffs and taking them with her. Her son didn’t think of putting them back again. Maybe she asked him not to, or maybe he just chose not to do so. Either way
Dean: “Mama, don’t worry, we will be fine.” I said, assuring mom who shook her head at me, clearly not liking the fact that I was choosing to allow Arianna to be with me. I wasn’t going to leave her here in Russia, and the idea of my child going to New York to live in an enemy’s pack was not something that I wanted to consider. That would, of course, require them to leave the woman alive to begin with. And even if they did, they could end up taking the child from her to simply break her, and I wasn’t going to put my kid in such a situation. “I am going to have to worry, Dean. The woman stole something from you and needless to say, they cost you a lot more than anyone should have been able to afford. What if something happened to Ilya?” She asked, using Elijah’s Russian name. She often did that when she was annoyed, and I knew that she was more than a little annoyed right now. Though I knew that she had the right to be upset, I didn’t want her to be. If anything, me being away from
Arianna: I watched as the door opened, revealing the Alpha who looked at me as if I’ve grown a second head. His beta was in the room with me, and had I thought that his sweet gesture was permanent, the beta proved to me that I was wrong. The man has been quiet since he got me to sit on top of the bed after I was ready with the shirt and pants, and no matter what I asked or tried telling him, he was quiet, making sure that I was just sitting on the bed. And needless to say, he hasn’t even bothered looking at me as if I was now some pest that he wanted to get rid of. The Alpha’s eyes were fixed on mine for a few seconds, making chills run down my spine as even my wolf grew nervous under the intense gaze of the Alpha. I didn’t know where things were going to take us, but I had to admit, I didn’t like it. If anything, I couldn’t help but grow more frightened as time went by, and that was something that I didn’t like. “Ready?” Alpha Dean asked, turning to look at his beta, clearly ign
Dean: I looked at Viktor who smirked as he saw me walking out of the room, my chest aching as I slammed the door shut. His eyes met mine momentarily before I shook my head as he proceeded to scroll through his phone. “Let out your sarcastic comment.” “The two of you are the definition of lovers wrapped in a gift box.” He said and I laughed, shaking my head at him. “Needless to say, at least, the two of you have your heads over your shoulders. You know, we tend to have the lovely habit of sending headless presents.” “She is with child, and lucky for her, the child is mine. Sending a headless present is going to have to wait for a little while longer.” I said and Viktor frowned in confusion. I wasn’t going to keep a woman who cost me my pack. No matter her cause and whatever bullshit loyalty reason, she was going to be the message that everyone, and I meant it, everyone who dared double cross me got. Mate or not, no one, and I meant it, no one, was to think that they could play me
