The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 84

“Hey, beautiful, what are you thinking about?” Gavin comes up behind me as I’m

standing at the window, absently staring out at nothing, and slips his arms around my

huge waist as he rests his chin on my shoulder.

“Oh, you know,” I sigh, “Life, conniving she-bitches, you know, the usual.”

He chuckles, “Hopefully it will soon be over, and we won’t have to deal with her.”

“That doesn’t make up for the lives she’s ruined, though.” I say as I rub my belly.

Gavin straightens, “Hey, look at me,” he turns me around, “we may not have planned this

pregnancy, or having the union ceremony so soon, but I wouldn’t change it for anything.

I’m happy with my life with you. Are you not happy with me?”

“Oh, Gavin, I am extremely happy with you! Have you forgotten who turned who down

about mating in the first place? You didn’t want this yet, and boom, we are pregnant and

now you are forced to unite with me.”

He chuckles, “I only wanted to make sure that it’s what you really wanted. I have wanted

you since the first night we met, Quinn, but I didn’t want you regretting anything by

choosing me so fast.”

“I will never regret choosing you, Gavin.” I reach up and place a kiss on his lips. Alpha

junior decides right now to give a powerful

kick.

“Holy shit! Was that my boy that just kicked me?” Gavin’s face is priceless. He’s felt him

move before but never when he kicks, and let me tell you, it’s a powerful one.

“Yes, he is a very naughty little boy when he kicks like that!” I raise my voice, so the pup

can hear me.

Gavin gets down on his knees in front of me and puts his mouth tc my belly, “Hey, little

man, please take it easy on your mama. She loves you very much, and we don’t hurt the

ones we love.”

I run my fingers through his hair as he talks to our son. It’s a nightly ritual for him to talk

to our pup before we turn in, but it started off by him apologizing in advance for poking

him as he makes mommy happy. I laughed the first time he said that, and now it’s

evolved into long conversations, long after I fall asleep.

“We are going to be later if we don’t leave in the next few minutes.” I tell him.

“So, what if we are late. I’m spending quality time with my son.” He rubs my belly and

then tries sneaking a hand between my legs.

Laughing, I scoot away from him, “Oh no you don’t! This dinner is on our behalf, we can’t

be late.”

“Fine!” Gavin sulks but stands back up anyway, “After you Alpha.”

“You can probably start calling me Luna, since that’s what I’ll be here soon enough.” I tell

him.

“Hm, I like that. My Luna…” He brings my hand up and kisses it as we walk out of the

room.

As we pull up to the Storm River pack house, I’m reminded that I

have to pretend that I don’t know Dr. Sands. I’m also not supposed to beat Lila’s ass for

doing what she did. I pray to the Goddess Selene for the strength to get through tonight.

Gavin opens my door and takes my hand to help me out of the vehicle. Thank Goddess

we brought his because I haven’t been able to get into mine for the past two weeks. The

last time I drove it was when I came here three weeks ago bent on beating a she-bitches

ass, pregnant and all but Declan talked some sense into me. A week later, I had grown

too big for my car.

There is only one reason that I am excited to be here and that is because Amelia

returned just this morning, and I have missed her so much. Speaking of my adoptive

mother, she is the first to coming running out to greet me. She throws her arms around

me. and covers my face in kisses.

“Oh, my beautiful girl, just look at you! You’re glowing!”

“I think you said that wrong. I think you meant growing, not glowing!” I chuckle.

“Oh stop! You are radiant, my dear!” she turns to her nephew, “My dear Gavin!” Bringing

him in for a hug, he returns it with one of his own, “Your mother told me about the bullshit

that you my brother is pulling. He is such an asshole, thank God you got my genes, and

not his!”

“It doesn’t matter, Amelia, because Gavin will always be my Alpha, and he has Dark

Moon now. Yeah, I would love for him to take over his own pack, but I am honored to

have him lead mine.”

“Spoken like a true Alpha and Luna!” She squeezes my hand, “Let’s get you inside and

off those feet. Sheesh, you two sure do make big Alpha heir!” Amelia runs her hand over

my stomach and then starts to lead me up the steps, but Gavin stops her.

“Aunt Amelia, give me a moment.”

“What…” She watches as he picks me up bridal-style and starts up the steps.

I shrug, “I stopped fighting him weeks ago.”

The former Luna chuckles and follows us up. We were the last ones here, Cici and

Spencer arriving earlier so they could visit her parents before the dinner, but they are

here now. Along with

Carter, Aspen, Keenan, and Kimber, Declan comes forward with the doctor following. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Quinn, I would like you to meet Jonah Sands, a friend of mothers.”

I grin, “It’s so nice to meet you, Jonah.”

“The feeling is mutual, Alpha Quinn. I’ve heard so much about you, it feels as though I’ve

known you for a while now.” He chuckles.

I proceed to hug all my other friends that are here waiting their turn, and when I get to

Kimber, my smile brightens just a little bit more. I was so worried for her because of her

issue, but now standing here and looking at her with her own hand resting on top of a

much smaller pup bump, I can’t help but send up a thank you to the Goddess.

“Holy shit, you’re huge!”

I grit my teeth at the sound of her voice, but before I turn around, I put myself in check

and put a big ole smile on, “Lila, hasn’t anyone told you that it’s rude to comment on a

woman’s weight?”

She slaps her hand over her mouth, “Oh, my Goddess, I am so sorry! I was just

surprised that’s all, Alpha Quinn; no disrespect meant.”

Oh wow, what’s gotten into her I wonder, but then I see her peek over at Declan and

then bow her head when she sees him glaring at her. Hm, I wonder what that’s about.

“Don’t listen to any negative comments, Quinn,” Declan says as he comes over and

hugs me, “You are as beautiful as ever.”

Gavin’s wolf growls and Declan chuckles, “Calm down Mace, I’m not stealing your Luna.”

He says it playfully, but I can still see the pain in his own eyes as he says it.

“Sorry about that, Mace has become very protective in the last week, it’s really weird.”

Gavin states, and it’s true. Mace has even growled at Spencer and Cam for getting too

close, and they both have mates!

“Well, I’m sure Duke would be protective too, so no worries.” He chuckles.

I glance over at Lila and see that her attitude has soured, most likely due to Declan’s

statement. According to others, Declan didn’t pay much attention to Lila’s pregnancy and

wasn’t very protective either. I look at Dr. Sands and come up with an idea. I will need to

approach him privately about it, but I think it may be our only chance.

Hm… what do you suppose Quinn wants to talk to the good doctor about??
