Chapter 77

Athena pov

Walking into my room I see a dark-haired man standing and looking out the window. His strong back is covered in scars and tattoos. The flex of his shoulder highlights the muscles down his back to his tight round ass. “Like what you see princess?” “You know I do and I hate that you still call me that after all this time.” Crossing my arms as my male turns around his silver eyes full of mischief. Backing away slowly looking for the door knob. “Where do you think you're going, princess?” “Oh ummm well you see this big mean alpha is stalking me and I am just gonna go get my mate to fight for my honor.” I fret. Bringing my hands up to my chest.

“And you think he will stop me?” he questions as he stalks towards me. Before I can answer he has me pinned to the door. The sparks rush over my skin where his skin touched trying hard not to moan at the feeling. “alpha please don’t I have a mate” “I don’t see anyone else here.” His husky voice dripped with lust. Having no other option I slam my lips to his. His large hands run down my back settling on my hips. He deepens the kiss. I can feel his excitement pressing against my stomach. A sharp kick to the ribs has me gasping for air. Stepping back Philip chuckles as his hands rub over my very large belly. “well guess he says no play time for mom and dad.” He chuckles. “he doesn’t have to kick so hard. He’s gonna be so much trouble, when he finally gets here. Have you thought of any names?” I smile at my loving mate. “well since he will be carrying both our names and later becoming the king of rogues I was thinking of something strong that can bring fear.” He says his silver eyes bright as if on fire. Nodding as I was thinking the same. “something that brings fear and means strong but I just don’t know maybe Ambrose would have had an idea but he’s not available still.” I huff. This picking name is hard my brother will have it easy he will get named at three. She will be turning one here soon.

“You know I wish that old bat was here being annoying as hell. Not just to help name our monster but we’ll I just miss him you know.” “I didn’t know him as long as you but he has made an impressive first not so good with the licking me away and all. Then he threw me into a heat right when you marked me. But ya I miss him and the endless supply of Bonnie’s cinnybonnies. I really want some now why did you mention them you jerk?” storming out of the room and out of the suite making it to the elevator before Michelle caught up. “I swear these hormones are gonna kill the guys before we have these pups.” She huffs rubbing her belly. Every mated female that was not pregnant was pregnant at the end of my heat. Ambrose's gift to the pack I’m sure. Dropping my shoulders I nod. “and the worse part Philip didn’t even do anything. I’ll be lucky if I still have a mate after this pregnancy.” “well just think if what you think is true then this is the only pregnancy you'll have so no more of this moodiness.” Nodding and smiling. “you always know how to cheer me up.” “speaking of old farts he needs to get back here he got me hooked on those little pastries and now he’s gone and we have none.” She pouts crossing my arms I nodded and pour too. The door opens to reveal Reena with her arms crossed standing in the middle of the car. “I take it that fucking piece of shit, witch is not back yet is he.” Shaking our heads. “that’s it.” She storms off the car and to my suite door. Throwing it open she yells for Philip. Looking at Michelle we both jump in the car hitting the g button. I feel we should go feed the horses.

Waddling as fast as we can to the barn. Making it inside I hear the loud moos from my babies. “oh my sweet little ones come here let’s see what’s in the office to snack on.” “you're going to spoil those cows too much and then no one will be able to breed them.” “oh, they are sterile. I don’t know why or how but they both were born unable to breed. So I can spoil them all I want these two aren’t part of the heard they are my babies.” “you know I bet it was the goddess. She saw you needed something to bring out your inner Luna and what better way than with babies that needed a mother.” “you have been reading again.” I chuckle as Michelle smacks my arm. “you know I sometimes question why we are friends” I huff shaking her head “cause no one else is willing to put up with either of us.” Laughing so hard I had to sit down. “ain't that the truth.” Both of us are very hard-headed with trust issues.

“How is Michael doing?” “oh arty he’s doing so much better. Clint is a goddess sent he’s so good with his night terrors and setbacks. Jaz has been such a wonderful helper too. I swear if anyone does anything to upset Michael she will eat them alive.” “I wonder if that’s an early mate bond seeping through. You know maybe the goddess let it slip through some cause she knows he will need a strong friend and someone he can fully trust. What better than his future mate.” I shrug. “I do hope so. They would make some adorable pups his red hair her blue eyes.” “or her blonde hair and his green eyes.” Smiling at each other “how about you do not marry off my daughter so soon.” Skylar’s sweet voice laughs behind us. “oh come on you gotta admit you thought about it too “ “oh well yes and I’m hoping for them to have at least five.” Skylar giggles.
