Ella’s POV We had arrived home later than expected and all I wanted to do was go directly to bed. My mother was asleep and my father hadn’t informed her yet that they had found me. He wanted to surprise her with bringing me to her directly so she could see me with her own eyes. After deciding to inform her in the morning that I was alive, I snuck into the house and into my old bedroom while dad went to join mom. My room was exactly the way I had left it six months ago, even the unpacked boxes still sat in the corner where I had left them. The room smelled a little stale and I could tell mom hadn’t cleaned it much probably in hopes my scent would still linger. Rummaging through the clothes that I had left behind I found and old night shirt and quickly got ready for bed. As I brushed my teeth, I looked at my reflection in the mirror as I tilted my head to the side. Hunter’s mating mark stared back at me in all its beauty as I ran my fingers across it. My heart began to warm by sing

Caleb’s POV After Alpha Hunter left, I found myself alone in my cabin as Ella’s scent still lingered behind. Ella clearly was upset after seeing the dress and obviously couldn’t face me and made a run for it to get away from the feelings she has for me that haunt her. Her love that she still has for me made itself visible through the moment and kiss we shared before Hunter walked into the cabin. I wanted Ella for myself, but I knew that she would have to come to me willingly because right now she was mated to Hunter which was by far the strongest Alpha I had ever met, and her wolf was Hunter’s mate. After Ella and Hunter had finished the mating, I could tell with the short-lived fight the two of us had, his wolf had grown in size and in strength. The fairytales of being mated to a white wolf were not exactly fairytales but actual tales from past Alphas. Ella’s power clearly radiated from Hunter and when Ella shifted the power from her wolf emulated showing me that her wolf had pick

Ella’s POV For the first time ever, I woke up in my mate’s arms and a feeling of love and protection consumed me. Never have I ever felt so much love and compassion from a person as I do when I’m with Hunter. The mate bond between the two of us pulses strong like another heartbeat within me drawing me to him. My body automatically pulls deeper into his embrace and I worry I will wake him. Hunter begins to hum and I know he is awake as he tightens his arms around me like an anaconda capturing its prey. “Did you sleep well Love?” He asks in a husky morning voice that melts my insides and makes me want to straddle him right here and now, but the thought passes when I assume my parents are both up. Last night I can only imagine what my father heard and I begin to blush thinking about it. “Yes.” I finally said as I tried to stretch my arms and legs that were now being pinned down by Hunter’s enormous body that somehow rolled on top of me. Hunter began to place gently kisses along my

Ella’s POV The realization of my situation hit me like a freight train. I was pregnant not just with one, but two pups and I didn’t know who the father was. There was no need to count the days between because it was within the same week which left little to no doubt that these pups could be either of my two mates.” Well wouldn’t this just make primetime gossip news at the beauty parlor.” I thought to myself before I realized Hunter was still looking at me and I was lost in my thoughts. “He didn’t say. Just said I needed to come into his office for more test.” I tell Hunter as I sat up and pulled one of my pillows to my chest holding it like a lifeline. Hunter remained silent and I know what was haunting his thoughts. He knew there was a possibility these pups that are growing inside of me might not be his. I broke the silence, “Anyway we can keep this between us for now?” Hunter finally looked at me and I see the sorrow that filled his eyes. “Yeah, I think that might be best.”

Ella’s POV Hearing “Baby girl” from Caleb’s lips made my heart melt. I didn’t realize how much I missed him till now. My mother with the help of my bodyguards finally caught up to me and I pulled away from Caleb not liking the loss of contact. “Caleb this is my mother, mom this is Caleb my other mate.” Mom with a slight slur to her words says, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Caleb. Could you please get my husband for me?” “Yes ma’am.” Caleb said as we walked into the house and Jesse appeared. Caleb told Jesse to take my mother to my father and they all disappeared within the house together. My two bodyguards still lingered behind me. I turned and shot them a look before saying, “I think Alpha Caleb is more than qualified to protect me.” Caleb shot them a look and they both took off towards what I believe was the kitchen. Caleb grabbed my hand and walked me through the house and out the back door onto a porch where he offered me a seat. The view of a beautiful garden drew my atte
