“Easy love.” Caiden spoke as he grabbed me. We where at the beach for the day. The sun was warm but not to warm and the lake was perfect for werewolves. We don’t fell cold like humans do. The coldest winter and we would probably have a spring jacket on if your lucky. Though we don’t get to talk with our wolves till we are 18 we can transform into them at a young age. I was able to pull Marcus to his wolf form at the age of 8. That was around the age my mother was able to pull my brother. Unfortunately they where not able to pull me so I had to wait till I was 18 to see mine.
“Sorry, didn’t see the drop.” I spoke gently. I had miss stepped thinking the sand was the same level as the parking lot. Well nope. There is like a good foot or two difference.
“That’s why I got you.” Caiden chuckled giving me a gentle kiss on the cheek. I smiled happily. It has been a week since they told me we where mates and I was loving the love they where giving me. We did everything together as a family. Patric has gotten over the whole not having a father for five years. Caiden and Cameron sure made it up to him. The day he found out we literally went to the arcade and movies. The next day was in the game room with him and then we went for another run. Now here we are at the beach as a family.
Marcus has also warmed up to them and you can really see he is enjoying it. Still doesn’t trust them enough to let me go off pack territory with them alone but we will get there. My mates have really stepped up and been a father to both boys. Something they really needed. They also spent time with me. Pampering me with kisses and man can these guys give a mean message. No we havent mated or marked each other. They want to take things slow. One because of all the pain I have been in they want me to feel there love not there bond and two we don’t get much time alone right now.
Esmeralda has really grown to. Now that I have been in her life all the girly things she could never do with her dads she can now do with me. We have done manicures and pedicures. I have been given the load down on all the Disney princesses and princes. Not to mention I found out she had a love for art. This was something her mom was good at so I encourage her.
“Penny for your thoughts.” Cameron said leaning in and kissing my other cheek. I blushed red causing him to smirk.
“I’m thinking about us and how happy we are. This world has taken so much from me but now it seems it is giving it back little by little.” I smiled as I grabbed his hand. “My family is complete.”
“Oh I think we could do with one or two more pups running around calling us mommy and daddy.” Caiden whispered seductively.
“I was thinking 4 or 5.” Cameron spoke.
“Seriously.” Caiden said with an eye raised to his brother. Cameron chuckled as he began to walk away with the cooler bags and beach bags.
“I was thinking 2 to 4 more so we at least agree.” I piped. I knew Caiden was thinking about the pain I would go through with that many children and Cameron didn’t want it to be small with so much space and time. We as werewolves live 2 or 3 hundred years depending on our health and activity.
“Daddy come on.” Esmeralda called from the shore line. Patric was looking at the water all ready to jump in. He was wiggling and everything. Marcus was no where in sight however which worried me.
“Where’s Marcus?” I asked looking around for him. I began to start to panic a little before two arms wrapped around me.
“Sorry mom I really had to go.” Marcus said causing my fear to just wash away.
“Its okay sweet heart. You probably told me and I didn’t hear you.” I told him kissing the top of his head. He raced off to the other two as a hand wrapped around my waist. I looked up to see Caiden looking at them. I snuggled myself into his side as he held me tight.
“We should go help my brother.” Caiden chuckled as we watched Cameron struggle getting the sheet set up. We both laughed as we walked over to give him a hand. We had lunch all ready to go as the children came over. We happily ate before they left to the water taking me along with them.
“Not to far Patric.” I said as he jumped out to just above his shoulders. He turned and smiled at me as he kept going. I just shock my head as I let my feet touch the water. It was cool but refreshing.
“Come on mom.” Marcus called from where he was treading water. Esmeralda was still on shore where her ankles where covered. I walked up to her and nudged her forward. She shook her head before I turned to Patric whom was struggling a little.
“Patric cup your hands.” I called to him. He did what I said and began to swim a lot better. I just chuckled.
“Mom.” Esmeralda gently spoke. I turned back to her with a smile. “I cant swim.”
“Its easy.” I smiled at her. We began our lesson and with in a few minutes she was swimming like a pro. Oh how we ladies learn. I quietly swam out to them and treaded water as they swam around me. I was so happy with them all before a shiver went up my spine. I looked around worried but I couldn’t see anything.
“Mom.” Patric half choked half said as he jumped on my back. I smiled as I held us both above water.
“Tired baby.” I asked him gently.
“No mommy.” He giggled. I smiled as I began looking around again. Something was not right but I couldn’t pin it. I let it go as we began to swim some more. When the children where tired that was when we went in. I dried them off as there dads packed up.
“Daddy I can swim.” Esmeralda exclaimed happily. I smiled happily at her knowing she would only improve as we would be out here as much as we could.
“I think Daddy should put in a swimming pool.” I chimed in as I looked at both of them go pale. I now knew the reason Esmeralda couldn’t swim was because her daddies didn’t. “It seems like there is more then one that needs to learn.”
“As long as we get the sexy one to teach us.” Cameron smirked. I blushed causing the children to laugh.
“Come children let’s get you changed. Cameron and I are going to drop you off with Grandma as we head home.” Caiden sighed a she held up our clothing bag. I looked at him worried causing him to smile. “It’s nothing love. Just a surprise meeting.”
“Alright.” I said letting it go as I helped the children change. We where all packed in the car before long and on our way to the hospital. I still had that feeling something wasn’t right but I let it go. It was probably just me feeling unease as I was enjoying myself.
“Mom.” Patric piped up. I looked back at him and smiled. “I’m hungry.”
“I think there is a McDonalds beside the hospital. We will stop for a snack and then go see Grandma.” I told him smiling. Caiden, whom was driving, pulled out his wallet and handed me a hundred dollar bill. I frowned as I took it causing him to smile.
“Daddy pays.” He spoke gently as his hand played on my thigh. My breath hitch as I looked over at him. He was concentrating on the road but I knew he heard my reaction. I placed my hand on his and gently squeezed.
“Daddy has to pay as mommy forgot her purse at home.” I said with a smirk. He looked over at me shocked.
“Eyes on the road.” Cameron called from the back all annoyed. I knew it was because his brother was touching me without him.
“I can do two things at once.” Caiden called back.
“Not with your eyes.” Cameron gently snapped.
“Oh no someone is jealous.” Patric piped up. Well this caused all of us to laugh. As McDonalds came up we all got out. Cameron, the moment he got out of the back, had his hands on me. As the children got out of the car he planted a kiss on my lips.
“The children are hungry.” Caiden said with a chuckle from his drivers seat. Cameron growled as he let me go.
“We finish that later.” He said looking at me and I smirked. I knew we would. He left after that as we walked in and bought some food. Marcus made sure I ordered first. He was always worried I wouldn’t order something but I have strict rules. I am not aloud to go without a meal. I also have to have snacks in between meals until the guys feel I have enough weight on me. This is something that has become more strict since I found out they where my mates.
“Happy meal mommy. Happy meal.” Patric piped up. I smiled as we clicked his meal in next and then the other two ordered there meals. We took our number to the desk and we paid. It didn’t take them to long before our order was ready and we ate. None of us took very long to eat as we where hungry and where out to the hospital before to long.
“I am glad you here.” The doctor cried as he saw us walk out of the elevator.
“What’s wrong?” I asked worried.
“Neta take the children to my office and give them some paper and colors.” The doctor called to a nurse that was walking by. I nodded to the children to follow her and they did. “I have been trying to get a hold of the Alphas all day.”
“What’s wrong?” I now gently demanded. He began to run down the hallway, me on his heels. As we got to moms door he opened it and there on the bed was a frail old women. Luna looked so sick.
“She has gotten worse. And last night took a big toll.” He spoke. “I’m afraid we are going to lose her.”
“No.” I demanded as I walked up to her. A nurse passed him an envelope to which he walked over to me. I opened it to see the cancer has spread. I was not having any of this. I reached my hand over my Luna and closed my eyes. I forced the magic to do as the doctor had instructed me. It was not easy and it was very draining but when I opened my eyes my Luna looked healthy again.
“Av.” The doctor cried as he raced over and caught my falling body. “What did you do?”
“Mom.” Marcus screamed as he came over and grabbed my hand and shoulder.
“I am not loosing another Luna.” I barely whispered.
“Mom, please say your okay.” Marcus cried as he squeezed my hand. I tried had to squeeze it back but I just couldn’t. “She used way to much.”
“What did she do. She stood with her hand over top of the Luna for a while before she began to fall.” The doc spoke worried.
“We need a bed so she can rest.” Marcuse said gently. I knew he was worried for me. The last time I used to much I just about died according to him.
“Nurse.” The doctor called. Someone came in shortly after. “We need to prep her a room.”
“Yes Doctor.” The nurse spoke before I heard her scurry away.
“Call Andrew.” Marcus spoke gently as the doctor laid me on the floor as my head fell in Marcus arms. The doc got up and ran out of the room. “Its okay mom. We will get you a place to rest.”
“Baby.” I barely whispered.
“No mom. Please don’t talk. You save your strength. I know why you did it and understand. Now we just get you rested.” He gently said kissing my cheek. I smiled gently at him as we sat there. The nurse came back with the doctor as he lifted me. Marcus held my hand as we walked to the room the nurse made us. I was placed on the bed.
“Andrew is unreachable. I have tried the Alphas again but couldn’t reach them.” The doc sighed “One did answer and they said they would be here soon.”
“Who?” Marcus asked.
“Olivia.” The doctor said.
“I wont leave grandma’s side.” Marcus instantly said. He looked at the doctor and growled harshly. “She is not to see my mom.”
“Yeessss sir.” The doc spoke shocked a she bowed his head. I weakly smiled know it was the Alpha gene coming out.
“I will get Esmeralda in her with Patric.” Marcus spoke as he jumped up and raced out.
“He’s a….”
“Alpha by blood.” I barely got out.
“I promise Luna, Oliva will not enter here and I will keep trying the Alpha and Beta. Your Luna will be safe.” The doc spoke with a gentle bow. I was so glad he was a werewolf. I knew he would keep his word. Sleep took me just as the other two came running in. I could feel them hold my hand as I drifted off.
