Makahi POV:, This can’t be happening how the hell did Summer end up pregnant. How the hell could it be my pup she’s carrying? Listening to her tell me about a night I had no recollection of and one I would quickly dismiss if it weren’t for the fact that I was indeed drunk most of those days because even though the evidence pointed to them been guilty Maka still felt that she was our mate and some part of me wanted to believe it. So getting drunk was the only way I could stop myself and Maka from taking over and going after Jilahni. I also remember the morning I came down stairs and she was in the kitchen I didn’t care enough to question her, partly because I didn’t want to hear her complain about me canceling on her yet again. so I basically grabbed a bite to eat and got to morning assignments for my guards. I briefly saw her rush out but paid it no mine. Could what she said be true? that I’m the father!? I couldn’t be sure so I can’t allow her or the pup to be harmed which it doesn’t matter if I was the father or not I couldn’t let her die., Zane cleared his throat to get my attention because I was focused on summer and the pup she carried she was sobbing uncontrollably and winced in pain when the guard jerked her back by the hair and Maka came forward instantly ready to protect her and the pup with his life. “Now that we have all that cleared up. The only way to save your pup’s life is to mark my dear niece here which should be no problem since she was supposed to be your mate and Luna anyway.” Zane finished shrugging dismissively. “Are you out of your mind if let her go now I’ll make your death quick. Because If any one of you touch her or my pup will die slow.” I snarled. “Now now alpha I’m trying to avoid killing you and my pregnant niece but if you refuse, honestly leave me no choice.” Zane said as his claws lengthened and Summer begins to scream and fight the guards who were dragging her to Zane. “Damn it! STOP! What does it matter if I mated you’re niece why is it so important that I mate her what do you get out of our mating?” I snarled., “Let’s just say I believe a pup needs both parants.” He shrugged. “Bull**!” I snarled. “Whether you believe my motives or not is of no concern to me it doesn’t change the fact that you have only 2 choices and you better make it quick because my mate was in the middle of having my step children.” Zane said smiling trying to provoke me into attacking giving his guards more time to reach Ji’lahni who Montego mindlink me that she made it to the chopper but guards were heading their way. him and hunter were still at the exit waiting for me while Shadow was with Ji’lahni. Summer’s screaming broke my focus as Zane raised his hand with his claws out coming down to swipe at summer’s exposed belly. “STOP I’LL DO IT!” I yelled., Zane stopped just as the tip of his claws came so close to Summer’s belly that I saw a little b***d drip down her stomach. Turning to me with a triumphant smile “Smart choice son I didn’t want to add a she wolf and a pup to my list of kills today. He said retracting his claws. “Well send her to me.” “Please son don’t insult my intelligence again you don’t have time to play silly games. My guard here will bind your legs and then I’ll escort summer to you and once she is marked you’re both free to go. See simple right.” “How do I know you want double cross me once we try to leave.” “Why Alpha I’m offended am I not a man of my word?”. “You’re kidding right?” I snorted. “At this point you’re just gonna have to trust me, again you don’t have the time to waste tic toc times a wasting how much longer are you willing to have your pups without a hospital around remember Ji’lahni is human after all.” Just do it.” I snarled., One of the guards holding Summer hurried towards me producing a roped obviously laced in the girls b***d then dried out the guard had gloves on as he knelt to wrap the rope around my leg earning a growl from Maka he damn near jumped out of his skin whiched pleased Maka. The guard hurried away once the rope was secure the rope was burning into my skin but I refuse to give Zane the satisfaction of seeing a reaction. He grabbed summer by the hair and yanked her forward using her as a sheild. Which caused summer to cry out and stumbled, he just jerked her up right practically dragging her. My claws lengthen and my eyes changed to Maka and he growled. “Calm down Alpha she’s not hurt maybe a little bruised but not hurt.” Zane said as he shoved Summer in front of me pulling her hair back exposing her neck where my mark is supposed to go. Looking at Summer I could see the fear in her eyes and I felt sorry for her at that moment despite what she did her pup shouldn’t have to die because of it., Looking at her neck Maka was resisting, he knew Summer wasn’t our mate and didn’t want to betray Ji’lahni, because when we mate Summer we lose Jilahni forever. “Come on Alpha we don’t have all day if you’ve changed your mind I could just rip her throat out right here.” Zane said extending his claws again. “But before he could reach her neck I grabbed her and sinked my teeth into her neck and felt the bond snap into place as Maka howled in sorrow as I felt the connection me and Jilahni pups flickered out replaced with the connection with Summers pups snap into place tears spilled from my eyes as I hear Maka’s deafing howls as he retreated in the back of my mind. Retracting my teeth and licking the wound close I let go of Summer and she dropped to the ground still sobbing as I looked up I see Zane and his men were gone they must have left as soon as I bit Summer, they didn’t need her to bite me back, just me biting her was enough to ensure that we were bonded. “Alpha you need to move your a*s! We have to get outta here.” Montego mindlinked. Snapping me out of my misery, I reached down and picked up Sumner turning to run towards the exit. Summer wrapped her arms around me and breathe in my scent and instantly calmed I had to fight the urge to bury my head in neck and breathe in her intoxicating scent the bond already growing stronger but strangely I still felt a pull to Ji’lahni even with Summer wearing my mark. I’m so screwed I just hope I can get Ji’lahni to understand and wait for me to find a way to undo the mates mark. But I already know this will not end well for any of us. Because I’m bringing the woman who caused all our problems with me and to make matters worse I will have to protect Summer from Ji’lahni and the girls because they’ve been waiting for the chance to kill Summer but now everything has changed and not in a good way., Ji’lahni: POV, “Oh My God!” I screamed when I saw my cousins racing towards me I had about 5 minutes before another contraction hit so I am going to make the most of it. When we reached each other we cried and hugged each other and cried some more. Before Shawna slapped my arm.” Hey! Pregnant girl in labor here.” I said rubbing my arm. “Well you better be glad that’s all I did. Don’t you ever sacrifice yourself to save us until we tell you too.” Mina said crossing her arms looking at me angrily hers eyes watering up. “I’m so sorry I honestly thought I was dying and I knew yall would never let me do it if I told you. So I did what I had to do to make sure yall made it out. I’m the oldest so I have to protect yall.” I said as my eyes watered., “OH cut the s**t you’re only 2 months older then me so down play that damn a*s card.” Shawna rolled her eyes. Lynn and Mina nodded in agreement. Just as another contraction hit. I screamed and my cousins quickly helped me onto the chopper all the guards on the chopper where all staring opened mouth at me as I screamed in pain I grabbed the guard closest to me by the hand and he yelped in pain trying to remove his hand from my grip I think I heard one of the others whispered “is his hand turning purple.” The pain was on 10 at this point and I reached out with my other hand to grabbed onto anything for leverage and they all scattered like roaches but one of them was to slow and I grabbed his hand just as the doc check my dilation. Only then did the contraction ease. “Well we are still in the beginning stages your only 3 cintermeter so that’s a good thing.” The doc said. “WE! We’re not anything I’m the only one going through this s**t. You’re just digging my cookies giving me bad news every single time.” I yelled. As I laid-back on the cot trying to get comfortable but it wasn’t happening., “What is taking Makahi so long I want to get out this God forsaken hell hole. I swear if I have my babies in the chopper I will knocked all his teeth out.” I g*****d still trying to get comfortable I knew there wasn’t a comfortable spot on this cot but my body wasn’t getting the picture. ” I’m sure the Alpha will be here any moment.” The doc said smiling reassuringly. I turned away from him because I really wanted to punch him in the face. Giving up on this cot from hell feeling closed in with the urge to just get up and walk around. “I need to get out of here and just walk around I’m really uncomfortable.” I said making a move to get up. Grabbing my shoulders. “I don’t think that’s a good idea Luna.” One of the guards said. Glaring at him. “I promise you if you don’t get your hands off me I will rip them from your body and shoved them so far down your damn throat that you will have to bend over just to wave at people.” I snarled. The guard quickly let go and raised his hands like he was under arrest.” Now help me outta here so I can walk around until Makahi show up.”, I’m sure I will feel bad about this later but right now I don’t give a damn. Lynn came beside me handing me a water bottle and a sandwich. I almost cried because lord knows I was hungry even with them contractions. I bite into the best bologna sandwich I have ever tasted and what topped it off was the lemonade I thought it was water but I should have known my family would come through. I sighed after I ate half the sandwich and lemonade I felt the beginning stages of another contraction I started to breathe heavily the guards who were trailing us came to my side and held me so I wouldn’t fall they even put their hand in mine even though they knew it would hurt. I almost came to tears at how they rallied around me to protect and support me. “Thank you.” I said tearfully. “it’s our honor luna.” They said just before their eyes lost focus which I now understand is when they mindlink., “We have to get you back to the chopper the Alpha is close.” the guard said as they literally picked me up like I weighed nothing at all with the girls running trying to keep up with him. Once back at the chopper everyone was scrapped in ready to get out of this hell hole. I was having a contraction when Makahi made it to the chopper so I didn’t see or hear the commotion that erupted until it passed. All I saw was Mina and Shawna were fighting the guys holding them as they yelled and screamed saying “I’M ABOUT TO KILL THAT b***h! LET ME GO!.” Mink yelled. “Look somebody has to die whether it’s you or that b***h over there the choice is yours.” Lynn said calmly while trying to approach whoever just got on the plane with Mykahi. I wiggled and squirmed my way to a seated position trying peeped around doc to see who a*s we were about to kill. When I finally use doc shoulder to pull myself up. As if he could sense me he looked straight at me with sadness in his eyes he looked like someone had died. I frowned then my eyes dropped to what or shall I say who he had cradled in his are. My eyes widen in shock.. “I KNOW YOU f*****g LYING! “ I yelled just as another contraction hit., Search the website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
