I'm editing this story right now, adding some paragraphs and trying to see if i can spot some errors to fix. story will still be the same though, just maybe easier to read.
Amber's pov Working for Alpha Drake wasn’t that bad, he allowed me to start late so I could have breakfast with Elias and leave early so we could have dinner together. I only stayed longer when he had guests. I had most weekends off and I could take leftovers home. Saturday mornings I trained with some other working moms, Elias often joined me and sparred with some of their kids. He was strong and could fend off kids twice his age, but I’d rather he stay a kid a bit longer. Brian was usually sleeping off a bender in the mornings, but would join us for lunch most of the time. He wasn’t a great father, he was often gone for days at a time or he would smell of women and alcohol. But when he was sober and had a good day he would play ball with Elias or help me in the garden. I knew he tried and I saw how much Elias loved him. Every so often I would see Brian stare at his own reflection and look at the mark Susan has left. It was one of the only things he had left of her, the mark and t
Flashback: Axel and I have had the best summer and I knew I shouldn’t, but I started to think about a future together. I knew his family would never accept me as his Luna so we had been secretly meeting all summer. After school we would meet at the lake and picnic on a field overlooking wildflowers. We would talk for hours, well we wouldn’t just talk. But who could blame me, have you seen Axel, he looks like a model. He’s build like a statue, with bright blue eyes and when the sun hits his hair it looks like every strand is made of gold. We would kiss until it was time to go home, but after a while that was not enough and he would sneak into my bedroom window at night. My parents didn’t notice, they hardly paid attention to me anyway. My bedroom was all the way at the back of the house near the forest, so it was easy to sneak in undetected. Being with Axel was lovely, even though we knew it couldn’t last. Mates were chosen by the Moon Goddess and they would complement each other. I
Amber's pov "Did you hear me Amber? Alpha Axel Wensworth is the one who will be visiting us this weekend." I had heard Alpha Drake, but his words hit me like ton of bricks. Axel, someone I thought I would never see again, was visiting my pack. I was trying to push back the memories and the feelings of heartbreak that followed. I tried to contact Axel after I had found out about my pregnancy. We had been careful, using condoms every time. But during our last time, there was a tear in the condom. I was planning on getting the morning after pill, but the pack's gossip was in line behind me in the pharmacy. The next day Axel started to ignore me. I was so heartbroken that I didn’t even think of the condom until I started feeling nauseas. Abortion isn’t uncommon in the werewolf community, but in Alpha’s Alistair’s pack women didn’t have much choice and abortion was forbidden. I don’t know if it would have mattered if I had the choice, I knew what it felt like to be unwanted and Elias w
Amber's pov I felt numb the rest of the day, until I saw Elias playing in the garden with Thomas, Casandra's mate. The first time I met him I wasn’t sure how I felt about him, he was scary looking and build like a linebacker. But once I saw him with Cassandra and the kids I knew it was all bark and no bite. He was one of the kindest souls I ever met and would go to any length to keep his loved ones safe. I was so lucky he counted Elias as one of his bonus grandkids. Looking at my boy with a loving father figure nearly broke me, I tried to keep the dam from breaking before anyone would see. Unfortunately Casandra had already noticed something was off and quickly took me inside. "Tell me what’s going on, you can’t go to Elias looking like this. You need to calm down, tell me please so I can help you," Cassandra said. It wouldn’t hurt to tell her now, I thought to myself. It might come out anyway if I’m not careful. The more help I can get to hide Elias away the better. I told Casand
Amber's pov The next few days went by in a blur. Brian came back on Tuesday and I filled him in on the visit of Alpha Axel. He suggested to leave for the weekend, Axel might recognize him as well. He couldn’t stay away for the whole two weeks, but that first weekend would be most important to skip. Usually when Alpha Drake had guests, he would invite them over to his Mansion for dinner and would show them around town the next day. I guess Brian was scared of what Axel might do if he found out he’s been living with the Alpha’s ex and their secret love child. Brian had helped me when I needed it the most, but he was not a brave or strong man to be honest. Years of using alcohol to numb his senses, made him slow and he skipped out on training most days. He wouldn’t stand a chance against an Alpha. I actually felt relieved, not having to worry about Brian this weekend. My mind was busy enough with worries and thoughts about my old pack.Suddenly it was Friday night, the day before Axel,
Amber's pov I woke up after having slept barely a few hours. I was unable to forgot about the events of last night. Who was the mystery wolf and would he tell someone what he saw? I couldn’t focus on this right now, Alpha Axel and his pack would soon arrive and I needed to help get the Mansion and packhouse ready. We needed to set up all the rooms at the packhouse, fill the pantry and I brought some of my fresh vegetables and fruit. We needed to decorate the dinning room in the Mansion and make preparation for Dinner that night. I started at the packhouse, making sure each room looked nice. Alpha Axel was bringing his Beta and the Beta’s mate. Plus his Delta and some security. When everything looked great in the bedrooms in the packhouse, I went downstairs to head to Alpha’s mansion. I heard noises coming from the kitchen, people talking very seriously. Suddenly I smelled Eucalyptus and Sandalwood, I turned my head slightly trying to sneak a peak at the person that smelled so nice.
Axel’s point of view. Was that Amber? No it couldn’t be! I had been trying to follow the scent of the wolf I met last night. She smelled like wild flowers. Later that day I smelled it again, while meeting with Alpha Drake at the packhouse. We were early, we stayed in a horrible hotel on the other side of the forest and I couldn’t stand being there any longer. The food was horrible, the matras lumpy and dirty. And when I couldn’t sleep, I let my wolf out for a run. That’s when I noticed the other wolf, it was big but my wolf wasn’t scared. He just wanted to play and tackled her to the ground. Sometimes happened with the wolf's fur, it glowed. It looked magical. I instantly wanted to know more about it. I apologized to Alpha Drake for our early arrival, but once I explained the state of our hotel, he understood perfectly fine why we couldn’t stay there any longer. Alpha Drake was often mentioned in one of dad’s rants. He was the type of Alpha dad hated, he was too soft and kind and le
Chapter nine: Amber’s pov: "Amber?! Is that you?" Alpha Axel asked, a shocked look across his face. "I’m so sorry to bother you, I will leave you alone. I know you don’t want any contact, so I will head home now Alpha Axel," I mumbled very quickly and almost ran to my house. Leaving a stunned Alpha standing there. I knew I could have handled this better. It was kind of low to mention his last note. Five years had gone by, he probably had enough to deal with without worrying about me. I made myself some chamomile tea to calm my nerves and help me sleep when I heard a knock on the door. Before I could open it I saw a note being slipped under the door. I picked up the note and carefully read each word: "Amber, would you be willing to meet me for lunch tomorrow at the packhouse? A." Axels point of view: I slipped the note under the door and quickly left. I noticed she had a swing on the right side of her garden and lots of vegetables and flowers on the left side. I planned on aski
