**Epilogue**
**Cleo POV:**
Valenzano Jr. looks just like Valenzano from his olive skin to his black hair. However, his hair is curly like mine, and he is strong, just like his dad. I still find it funny that he didn't come out crying like a normal baby, he came out growling like he was ready to take over the pack already. As for our daughters Azeneth and Eve, they are the apples of Valenzano and Vintage eyes. Azeneth looks like me but with straight hair. Eve is a mixture of Valenzano and me. She has his eyes, my hair, and my hair color. Her skin color is a mix of Valenzano and mine, she also has freckles.
When we brought them home, Vintage would shift and sleep in the nursery with them. Valenzano got me pregnant again as soon as my six weeks of recovery were over. Which held me from getting turned. The two girls' identical twins, Nefertari, and Reign look just like me. West said having so many girls is punishment for all the hearts he broke before I met him.
They love our daughters and are very protective of them. One day, a little boy pushed Eve down the slide because she was taking too long. She ran past me and went straight to her dad. Long story short Vintage, August, and Francis’s wolf came out ready to beat up a little boy and his father. Of course, I, Jazz, and Claret had to talk some sense into them. Our girls have them, and their wolves wrapped around their fingers. Just yesterday, Vintage shifted and gave them piggyback rides or should I say wolfly back rides.
However, with our son they are different. They are really rough with him. It scares me sometimes, but I know they are just preparing him for when he becomes Alpha. Vintage and Valenzano Jr., have growling matches all the time and I can see the pride he holds for our son. I still can't figure out if they know Vintage is their father too.
Valenzano says they can. But I think they see him as a huge puppy. It's been five years since they were born, and my family have been blessed. West and Jazz have three pups of their own. I guess multiple runs in the family somewhere down the line. Valenzano got kind of jealous that West had all boys from his first litter. Right now, I am in the garden watching Vintage, August, and Ann, who is Jazz wolf play with the kids.
Vintage wanted more pups as soon as possible after the twins. But I told him I was not having kids again unless I was a werewolf and he agreed. My wolf is named Athena and she is all white. I was turned after all our kids were out of diapers. Because Valenzano said with my new super sense of smell I won't be able to handle diaper changing? I held up my end of the bargain. We mated when I turned, and I got pregnant that same day. The way Vintage took me all night, I was in bliss.
I liked being in wolf form so much that I stayed in my wolf form for my whole pregnancy. It was the first time in centuries that a Luna gave birth in wolf form. Vintage stayed in his wolf form my whole pregnancy as well. We had a lot of fun. Athena and Vintage ruled the pack perfectly. So, we have three more girls: Daniella, and Jacquline. I named them after Daniels and Jack, and the other we named Fresca, after her grandfather, Francis. So if we are keeping count that is three pregnancies so far.
Jazz was turned after she got baby fever after seeing her nephew and nieces and was turned later that week. Currently, they are all boys. She has gotten pregnant back-to-back like me. However, Valenzano did make it his mission to have a set of all boys. Did I mention I am pregnant this time with four pups, and they are all boys? Valenzano rubs it in West's face every chance he gets. We have names already picked out Vintage Jr., Caesar, Odysseus, and Adam.
"Cleopatra, how are you feeling", Vintage asks as he licks my stomach.
"I am feeling good just wish I could shift and play with everyone", I said as he rubbed his head against my stomach.
"Are the pups giving you a hard time", Vintage says with worry. After me having three pups as a human and two in wolf form, he still worries about me.
"No not at all, I am just enjoying watching everyone play", I said as I kissed his nose.
"Cleo girl, how you are feeling", Ann asked. Ann is Jazz wolf, she is a pretty reddish-brown wolf.
"Ann, I am fine, just relaxing, wishing I could shift", I said with a sigh.
"Well, this month is the last time I can shift due to the pups soooo, I feel you", she says with a smile.
"What...Wait, you are pregnant again?", I asked with excitement.
"What...Wait, you are pregnant again?", I asked with excitement.
"Yup and we are having three pups", she says with a smile.
"Goddess, the way we are reproducing we are going to extend the pack lands", I said, shaking my head.
"Already on it", August said.
"That is one of the perks of being a shifter. You can have children until you want to stop, unlike being a human, when a woman gets to a certain age you can't have children", Vintage says with a smirk, then licked my face and played with the kids.
"Hey Cleo, can you turn on the radio app you have on your phone", August asked. And I did one of my mother's favorites song come on.
*This stuff is starting now, It's the same feeling
I always seem to get around you
There's no mistaking, I'm clearly taken
By the simple mere thought of you, oh
This stuff is starting now
This stuff is starting now
This stuff is starting now*
I started to dance a little in my seat, then I heard Jazz yell at me saying don't hurt myself" with a laugh. She knows this is one of my favorite songs my mother used to play at our pack cookouts. My dad used to play it at barbecues.
"What do you know about this song Cleo?", Claret asked as she sat beside me.
"My mother use to play this song at every cookout. She used to tell me that the best R & B songs were made in the 80s", I said as I rubbed my stomach.
My eyes roll in my head, and I toss and turn in my bed
*In the morning when I think about you, yes I do
Simply put, you're the reason why
Even though I'm real shy, real shy I attempt to look my best for you
Indeed I do, just for you
'Cause you affect me, fascinate me
I thank heaven for the things that you do*
"I remember I went to their concert. I had the time of my life, me and my best friend. We even made it backstage", she said with a smile, probably remembering her time at the concert.
"Wait Francis, let you go to the concert?", I was shocked I heard stories about Francis. And let us just say Valenzano gets his possessiveness from him. I feel sorry for my son's mates.
"Yup", She said as he got up and start doing the same dances my mom used to do when this song was played.
"CLARET, IF YOU DONT SIT YOUR WIGGLING ASS DOWN YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SIT FOR A WEEK", Francis yelled across the lawn.
I laughed my ass off because she actually sat her wiggling ass down. I could have sworn I heard her call him an asshole.
"Please tell me how you convinced him to let you go. I might need some pointers after I have these pups", I said.
"It was easy. I didn't give him head for a month until he gave in. Every time he asked, I asked him to go to the concert. He said no, then said no. I even walked around the house sucking on blow pops just to piss him off. He finally gave in. And on the day we left I sucked him dry", she said, laughing.
"Goddess, mom that's fucking gross", Vintage said as he sat beside me.
"Language, the pups can hear you", Claret said in a motherly tone.
"They can also hear you to mother. And Cleopatra doesn't think that shi...stuff she did with dad will fly with us", Vintage said.
It's like candy
You sure are sweet, sweet!
You're so tender
You're taking my appetite, but it's all right
"You Cleopatra, that song does describe you very well. And tonight, I will taste how sweet you are", Vintage said as he ran to our kids.
Left with my thoughts as I watch them dance in their wolf form, I can't believe how my life has turned out. I would never have thought in a million years I would be a mother, a wife, or a Luna. And to think, my happily ever after started with a rough thirty days with my Alpha. Sometimes I often think about what would have happened if I had left the night I wanted to. Thank Goddess I will never know.
