-Sapphire's POV-
Waking up, I sit up and rub my eyes. Thinking I had a crazy dream, I glanced around the room only to realize I hadn't had a dream at all.
"Thank god it wasn't a dream," I smile and look to my left, "huh? Where is Damian?"
Looking around my eyes land on a note on the night stand to my right along witha letter, picking up the note as I read it. It was from Damian saying he went to go train with the others at the clearing that is visible from the big windows facing the bed. Suddenly I remember last night. Jumping up and running to the bathroom, I look at myself in the mirror. Looking at the place between my neck and shoulder I see it; Damian's mark. We didn't mate but we at least marked each other and I couldn't be happier but something seemed off when Scarlet said we have to wait to mate, then Damian said the same thing. I don't know why we have to wait but maybe there's a reason we have too.
As I'm lost in thought looking at Damien's mark I walk back to the bed and look back at the night stand. 'Wait thats my brothers hand writing,' I think to myself, picking up the letter and opening it, I start to read the letter.
'Dear sister,
I am writing to you to let you know how everything is going at home and to make sure you're safe of course. Dad's worried sick about you and wants you home as soon as possible. I think he still wants you to marry Roland but I know that will never happen. Rose and I are doing fine and guess what?! I'm gonna be a dad. Rose wanted to tell both of us that night you left but I understand. Did you find that wolf in your dreams? Is he really your mate? You'll have to bring him home with you so I can meet him. I don't know how dad will feel about it but I guess he's just gonna have to deal with it. Here's my cell number if you need to call me,
Love your big bro,
Drake.'
'Rose is pregnant?' I think to myself as tears form in my eyes with a big smile on my face.
"I'm gonna be an aunt!" I gush and hug the letter.
"Really now kitten?" I hear a deep silky voice behind me.
I turn around and see Damian with a towel around his neck.
"Yes my brother's mate Rose is pregnant!" I smile big.
"Well then that's something exciting to hear," he purs walking over and hugging me.
"Do you think we can visit them at some point?" I ask hugging him back.
"Of course we can but not today kitten ok? In a few days we can," he smiles down at me.
"Ok," I say and skip over to the closet to get ready for the day.
-Theo's POV-
Walking out to the training field I see Damian sparring with the top elite warrior, William. I watch them from the ring side as Damian pins William down. William starts hitting the ground obviously tapping out in submission.
"My turn. Tag me in, Will," I grin as he gets up brushing off his face and dark brown hair. Jogging over to me he taps my shoulder.
"Go get him little bro," he mocks looking at me with his baby blue eyes.
"You're next so get ready!" I joke jogging over to Damian as he gets ready.
"You ready to get your ass kicked Theo?" He asks with a big smile on his face.
I smile big at him then notice a mark on his neck.
"You two mated?" I ask raising an eye brow.
"No, it was weird. Noir doesn't want to right now and neither did Scarlet but I didn't want her leaving that room unmarked," he answers.
"Well congratulations dude now lets get back to training shall we?" I smirk.
We both stand a few feet apart and get into a braced stance as William gives us the signal to start. I charge at Damian as he goes in to punch me. I jump over him and kick him in the back making him fall down.
"Yeah one point for me big guy!" I shout.
Damian gets up and turns to me with a cocky look in his eye.
"Try that again," he mocks as I run at him.
Just as I jump over him I feel a hand on one of my legs.
"Oh shi-" I start but get slammed into the ground before I can even finish.
Feeling a foot on my chest I look up at Damian with that cocky smile on his face.
"Should have jumped higher huh?" I smile up at him.
"Ya maybe you should have," he mocks at me holding out a hand for me to grab.
"Thanks man," I say grabbing his hand and standing up.
"So you wanna talk about it?" He asks.
"Huh?" I c**k my head at him.
"Come on you can't hide it from me, whats on your mind?" Damian questions as we both walk out of the ring.
"Its nothing..." I mumble walking into his back, "sorry alpha!"
"See what I mean? You're not focused at all," he notes turning and looking down at me.
I see his eyes cloud over from someone mind linking him.
"I gotta go. Sapphire is awake," he huffs as he grabs a towel and wrapping it around his neck and jogging off toward the mansion. I sigh and sit down on the bench next to William.
"You know he's not gonna think less of you if you really do feel that way," William starts looking over at me.
"I...," I start but fall silent.
"Hey come on you know you can trust me, little bro. Besides I have noticed you looking at other couples; mainly the same s*x couples," he adds.
"How can I tell my best friend of 10 years that I am gay Will!?" I hiss at him rubbing my hands over my face.
I hear him sigh, "dude you just need more confidence in yourself. Who cares who you like? You won't be any different than you are now," he grins and stands up. "Come on: this time I'm gonna kick your butt."
I smile lightly and get up walking into the ring and begin sparring with William.
-Damian's POV-
As I reach the 5th floor I can feel Sapphire's happiness over flowing, 'she must have read the letter from her brother,' I thought.
"I'm going to be an aunt!" I hear her scream with joy as I step into the door way.
"Really now kitten?" I pur as she spins around to look at me. She runs and jumps into my arms and explains what the letter her brother sent her says. She even asked if we could visit them at some point and I want to but right now it be best to let the pack get used to her look and sent first so they dont attack her incase they see her in leopard form.
We head downstairs for breakfast after she gets dressed. I show her to the main dining hall where my mother is placing our food at the head of the table.
"Well hello dear," my mother gushes hugging Sapphire. "How did you sleep? Were you uncomfortable at all?"
"No not at all," she chuckles.
"I see you've marked each other. That's wonderful dear, will I be expecting any pups in the near future by any chance?" My mother beams at us.
"Mom! We only marked each other for now. We are waiting to mate because Noir and Scarlet want us to wait for some reason," I explain with a little blush on my face.
"Awww that's too bad. I was hoping for some grand kids sometime soon but I guess I can wait a little longer," she says pouting.
"Well my older brother is having a baby so technically you still get one," Sapphire grins up at my mom.
"What?! Oh my goodness you read the letter from him then. You'll have to invite them when the baby comes then sweetheart," she gushes leading my mate to her seat between mine and her plate.
"Well at least I don't have to fight for a spot to sit near my mate," I tease sitting beside Sapphire kissing her forehead.
Before we could dig in the doors opened to the elite warriors walking in with Theo and his brother William. They turn to us and bow, sitting down at the table as some of the omegas bring out some food for them.
"So William was it me or was your brother getting a little sloppy," I mock.
"Who knows Alpha," he grins looking at Theo who looks annoyed.
"Ya ya haha laugh it up guys," he snears. "I did kick your ass though big bro."
"True but you always seem to just know how to do it," he grins.
"Because I'm your brother and we know how each other fights dumb ass," Theo snickers.
"True again little bro," he says ruffling Theo's hair up.
"Alright everyone, lets quiet down and eat and then it's back to business," I order.
"Yes Alpha," everyone said in unison.
I look down at Sapphire who is enjoying eating her blueberry pancakes. I cant help but smile at her as I dig into mine.
Suddenly someone bursts through the doors and runs over to me.
"My deepest apologies Alpha but there are Royal guards here from the Star Leopard Tribe here," the omega panics.
I look down at Sapphire whose face has gone even more pale than it already was. My only thought right
now is that they better not be here to take my mate from me or there will be hell to pay.
