Elysian: [ beautiful or creative; divinely inspired; peaceful and perfect ] Reign's POV I'm awoken by my mother who shakes my shoulder gently, her voice playful when she whispers, "You're going to miss breakfast if you keep sleeping in the book store." She laughs as I push the book I was reading last night off of my face and rub my eyes tiredly.  "I left a note," I mumble as she takes my book and puts it back in its rightful spot.  "I know, but you always complain when no one comes and gets you for breakfast," she teases as a yawn escapes me. "You're lucky Nora and John like you enough to let you sleep in their shop." "They love me, I'm their best customer," I say as I stretch, before moving to stand, as I do so my back cracks and I groan softly before taking mamas outstretched hand and letting her lead me back to the pack house for breakfast.  When I enter the pack house I'm met with the most mouth watering smell of food, lots and lots of food, I look around to see bacon, eggs and everything you could think to have for breakfast, I snag a piece of bacon from the table before running up stairs to get dressed. I dress in a white sun dress, spraying on some deodorant and wash my face before running downstairs as not to miss out on all the food.  I reach the large dining room and take my seat on the right of my brothers mate, Colette, who sits next to brother, Damon, who sits next to my father. Papa smiles at me from his spot at the head of the table before we all start to grab our food with the scoops and tongs supplied, I get a scoop of eggs and a waffle with lots of bacon before smothering my whole plate with maple syrup and waiting for everyone else to get their food.  Once everyone has filled their plates we wait for mama and papa, the alpha and Luna, to start their food before we all dive in. Breakfast is filled with light conversation and laughter, I smile at everyone not conversing with anyone due to always having my mouth filled with food. Mama laughs at me as I fork another piece of waffle with bacon on top and put it in my mouth before moaning at how good it tastes, "This is why I get you to come get me in the mornings when I sleep at the book store." I say to mama, my mouth still half full.  "I figured," she smiles before I lean over and take a hash brown from the restocked pile.  "Love you mama," I say as I take a second hash brown to place on top of my waffle which already has bacon and maple syrup on it.  "I love you too, just not your weird food combinations," she laughs before turning to a conversation with my brother and his mate, Papa sends me another smile as he catches my eye before going back to his conversation while I finish my plate.  When I finish my breakfast I excuse myself from the table, taking my plate to the kitchen, grabbing a book from the shelf next to the back door before going outside to the garden where I lay down and read, as I flip through the pages I hear a soft giggle, I smile softly as the familiar two and a half year old runs at me with her dad, my best friend, running after her. "Aunty Weigny!" She yells excitedly as I sit up and push my book to the side before she engulfs me in her little arms.  "Hello little Ambie," I smile as she pulls away and fixes the frangipani flower in her hair before giving me the yellow flower she has in her hands. "Thank you, baby." I say as I place the flower on my ear like hers. "Did you run away from your daddy?" I ask making her giggle and nod as Asher runs over with a soft yet angry face pointed at Amber.  "Hi daddy," she giggles as she hides her face in my neck as if it would hide her from his angry gaze.  "Hey baby," he says, melting at the sound of the little girls voice. "Please don't run away from me again, okay?" He asks as he slumps down next to me and pinches her nappy covered bottom, Amber yelps before giggling and nodding.  "Wove you daddy," she says before getting her face out of my neck and plonking her butt down on the grass between my legs.  "I love you too, pumpkin," He says back before turning to me.  "Hi," I laugh and he smiles before his eyes glaze over mind linking someone, probably Maya, his mate, to tell her where he and Amber went. Once his eyes are clear again I nudge his shoulder with mine, " You guys missed breakfast." I say, not knowing why they weren't there.  "I know," he says with a smile before I see Maya skip over with a beaming smile on her face.  "What's got you guys in such a happy mood? You guys missed breakfast," I laugh, my brows furrowing as whenever they miss breakfast they get mad.  "I'm pregnant," Maya blurts out making me freeze before squeal in excitement, another baby for me to carry around before my mate comes and I have my own, I bring my fists to my chest and shake them in excitement.  "Oh my gosh! This is so exciting! There's going to be another baby for me to hold!" I giggle as Maya smiles wider.  "It's triplets," Asher says making my jaw drop.  "No way," I say trying to find any signs that he's lying, but find none. "This is so cool!" I scream as I tackle my best friend and his mate in a hug. "You only have two hands Maya which means I get to hold at least one all the time!" I tease, having already had to beg to snuggle Amber when she was born because Maya always wanted to hold her.  "Um no," Asher says, his eyebrow raised as he jabs a finger into my side making me squeal and giggle.  "Um yea," I say poking him back making his squirm.  "Uh no," he says again and Maya has to stop us or we'll be arguing all day.  "Break it up, there's three in there, one for each of us," she says before I push Asher away and lay my head on Maya's belly to try and hear the babies heart beats. "You won't be able to hear it yet, Reign, they're only the size of a bean right now," Maya giggles but I ignore her and move my ear, determined to try and hear something. "Asher's already tried." She giggles pushing me away and sitting up, I sit up with her and turn to see a pouting Amber.  "What's wrong baby?" I ask as she crosses her arms and gives me an angry face which forces me to try and hold back a grin at how cute she is.  "I wan tuddles too," she whines cutely, I laugh before smothering her in a hug and rolling onto my back so she's laying on my chest with her arms around my neck and her little legs resting on my hips.  "Love you baby," I whisper as she plays with my curls.  "Love too, Aunty," she whispers back as I kiss her cheek.  "You're gonna be a big sister," I giggle making her giggle and nod.  "Mhmm mummy got wots of babies in her tummy," she giggles as she moves a bit to poke her tummy and then mine. "Wiw you has babies too, Aunty?" She asks moving her head so she can look at my face.  "One day, hopefully," I whisper knowing I want lots of babies but I'm not sure if my mate will too, I look over to Asher and see his eyes filled with sorrow knowing that it's hard not having found my mate yet, unlike everyone around me who is mated and pregnant.  "Has you seens your mate?" She asks innocently, I shake my head as I smile at how little and innocent she is.  "Not yet, bubs, but when they come you can come tell me if they're good or not, alright?" I say and she nods eagerly before I sit us up and place her in my lap.  "The alpha Kings daughter.. son.. I don't know what to call them, she's female but has a male wolf," he starts waving his hands around as Maya corrects him by saying it's a her. "Well whatever she is, she's coming next week to try and find her mate, apparently she just turned 20." He says making me nod in rememberence before turning back to the two year old who has turned in my lap and is playing with my hair.  "So pretty," She whispers to herself as she pulls one of my curls down before watching it bounce back up and giggles softly to herself.  "Well I can't wait to meet her," I say as Amber continues to play with my hair.  "Will my hair be like yours one day?" She asks while pulling on another curl.  "Maybe," I respond as she yawns softly. "What time did you wake up this morning, Ambie?" I ask as she leans against me tiredly.  "She was up at five this morning," Maya answers, as I start to stand before picking Amber up. "Where are you going?"  "I'm taking Amber up for a nap, i had a late night last night too so I could do with a nap as well," I say, before wiggling my eye brows suggestively. "So I'll look after this one while you two have some alone time." "Oh we will," Asher says back. Earning a punch from Maya.  "Just don't dint the babies heads in with your beer can of a man hood," I tease referring back to our teen years when Asher thought that saying his manhood was like a beer can was attractive.  "Shut up," he grunts under his breaths before I smile, kiss Maya on the cheek and punch Ashers shoulder playfully before sprinting off with Amber yelling a goodbye.  Once inside I stop off at the kitchen to steal another piece of left over bacon and another waffle, Amber steals a few strawberries before I skip upstairs to my room, both of us snacking on our food. "All finished," Amber sighs as she wipes her face and lays her head on my shoulder.  "Do you want some waffle?" I ask holding the last piece of my waffle in front of Ambers face, she shakes her head tiredly, I chuck the piece of waffle into my mouth as she does so, opening my bedroom door with my foot.  Once inside my room I tuck amber into my bed and crawl in beside her, "Love you, Aunty Weigny." She yawns, scooting closer to me while I pull the blanket over us.  "I love you too, Ambie," I respond before kissing her head and watching her eyes flutter close, letting mine do the same, until we were both sleeping peacefully.
