Esme's POV "Is the Cake ready for collection?" Jaxon asks me as he walks into the living room. The kids are all outside playing right now with their Uncle Charlie and Hunter which is giving us an hour to prepare some things before Reggie goes to bed. ]"She said round 4 pm is when we can get it but she also said to have two people carry it out. A lot of the cake is for the pack as well" I remind him because Jaxon gets gets the idea that all chocolate and cakes is his and he becomes a child when he doesn't get what he wants which I find adorable.I've always been a planner, a list-maker, and an organizer. I've planned events, parties, and even vacations and even though as Luna that is my job, I really do enjoy it. I managed to persuade Jaxon to let me have my own office so I can organise most of the things and then have my own desk instead of using his, granted it didn't take me long or much persuasion before he gave in and said yes. But planning Reggie's first birthday is by far the
Esme's POV 4 weeks have flown by!As I watched Reggie toddle about the living room, his tiny legs carrying him with my remote for the TV, I couldn't help but smile. His first birthday had been an unforgettable celebration, filled with laughter and joy and so much sugar I don't know who was worse...Jaxon or the children of the pack. Now, at thirteen months, he is a curious and energetic little boy, exploring his surroundings with a hint of trouble coming our way. Pulling things off the sofa while staring you directly in the eye...yep, that's my son for you, or pulling your hair when you have just gone for a cuddle...As I chased after him, I noticed his newfound mobility had made our lives a tad more chaotic. He had discovered the art of putting the latch on the front doors, so when someone wants to walk in they don't get very far but it always makes them laugh because they know how children can be, all of this leading to unexpected bathroom excursions and kitchen escapades. But despi
Finley's POVAs I stood in the room that my sister had prepared for the groomsmen I couldn't help but feel the twitch of anxiety and nerves running through my body. She said that she did it because if it was left to Jaxon we would be getting ready in the woods after a run which, Right now, wouldn't be a bad thing but apparently not with the look she gave him. My heart pounded with a mixture of Excitement and also Nerves. Today was the day I would marry the love of my life, The mother to my children and the one who has helped me fight many battles inside my mind when I first came here, who isn't afraid to call me out on my bullshit when needed which is a lot since she fell pregnant again. I must have repeated the words 'I get married today' countless times, but the reality of it still sent shivers down my spine. In a good way!Naomi has always looked so radiant, composed and beautiful to me and she always will be but with a seven-week baby bump, she was glowing even to the eyes of othe
Esme's POVAfter the last few days I have come to understand just how hectic and amazing this life is! Robyn and Jacob are looking after Zack while Finley and Naomi take a week off to go on their honey moon, me and Jaxon are planning the Spring Festival for the pack and I am so excited to get stuck in with it again! We aim to do many of these events when the weather is good, probably because we get bad winters. I mean we got such bad weather over Christmas that we had to get all of our groceries delivered to the pack house and that is A LOT of shopping for everyone."Hey princess! My mom baked these last night, mint chocolate brownies as per you requested" Jaxon says as he hovers over me wanting one. I've felt a bit of recently and I think it's the weather change for me and Robyn had been eating these Brownies when I had one and have been hooked ever since on them!"Oh! Thank you! My stomach doesn't get queasy when I eat these" I say while giving my husband a kiss on the cheek and si
2 years later Two years has flown by, everything happens for a reason but we certainly didn't expect a pandemic and being unable to go into town. I spent a lot of my time helping some of the children with their work, or in the woods shifting and running off my energy and a lot more times in bed with my husband when the children are napping or with the day-care staff.The smell of cinnamon and sugar hangs heavy in the air, a familiar comfort that tells me it's Saturday morning and that Robyn has been baking once again. Jaxon, is in the kitchen arguing with his mother about the batter and what he can and cannot have which I always find funny. He’s a sight to behold, his messy hair, the way his shirt rides up as he bends over in to the fridge, the faint dusting of flour on his body from when Robyn swatted him away. He’s a mess, but he’s my mess is what I always say.Two years. Two years since the world turned upside down, two years since we welcomed Lola into our chaotic, beautiful fami
Tomorrow me and my brother Finley turn 18. I get my wolf tomorrow and I hopefully also find my mate. I work in the packhouse doing jobs that no one wants to do and it gets tiring after a while because they make me do it all by hand."Oi, mutt. this kitchen needs to be cleaned ready for the ball tomorrow"Each year a pack will hold the annual ball and unfortunately for this year our pack will be holding out the event. Great. Just great.My mom and dad don't care about me they are more concerned about the other kids accept me and Fin, were like the black sheep of the family basically.They have never been bothered about us. Even when we tell them that I usually get abused by everyone at work she shows no emotion no nothing. My older sister is everyone's favourite. She's perfect in every way possible."Ouch!" I look up to see the devil in she-wolf form standing with her 6 inch heals on pinning my ankle down to the floor."Are you doing your job properly bitch. We have guests in less than
Esme's POV I got up this morning with nothing but pure excitement. I get my wolf today and I couldn't be anymore happier. Both me and Finn haven't had much good luck over the years so I'm hoping we both find our mate. Wishful thinking. "Good morning Esme! Happy birthday" Finn says with excitement cladding his voice. He's just as hopeful as me. "Morning Finn! You excited for today?" I ask waiting in anticipation for his answer. "I am I'm hopeful to get my wolf today! It's just a shame that I have to work as well" "Yeah I know. Your lips turning blue. How is your bruises on your stomach and back? Have they healed yet?" He asks with concern written on his face. "I'll be okay. It's my birthday today so no one will bother me. I'm very hopeful of that" I hadn't even been at work for an hour and Elisa had summoned me to do the living room floor by hand and also the kitchen floor by hand because they don't like me using the mops. "I expect all of this to be in pristine condition when
Alpha Dylan's POVI've known for the last 7-8 weeks that Esme has been my mate. It's illegal for a wolf to tell an underage wolf that they are there mate. So even if I wanted to reject her I couldn't.I really wanted her sister to be my fated mate she's the one I love not Esme. She's just a lowly omega who works for us doing the shit no one else can be bothered to do. She gets the odd beating if she's not compliant or if the job she's done is not up to standards.She must have her wolf because Jared my wolf is going absolutely wild in the back on my mind. He's wanting to accept her and mate with her but I can't have that. Once she notices me I can tell she already knows I'm her mate but I have to reject her and I have to do it today. Now even."No...No this isn't happening""Out. We need to talk. But not here."She walks outside knowing what's coming I hope. Jared is going wild and it's doing my head in.'She's our mate. She was made for us and she can become stronger. You can train
