**John POV: **
We are back at this God-awful place. Maybe it is for the best and Abrams can finally see that Bastet is dead and retire. The sooner he can retire the faster I can take my rightful place. Abrams cannot die during this he does then McKee will have more votes than me. If that happens, I will only be Commander in Chief in name only. Everyone will look towards him for orders and not me. I hope McKee dies during this waste of a mission. My phone vibrates and it's Tiffany. Since I know I was being followed by McKee and John I had to make them think me and Tiffany were over.
Tiffany: Please come back to me.
Me: I will. Did you take the test?
Tiffany: Yes, I did.
Me: And?
Tiffany: It is negative, but I promise when you get back, we will marry and then work on an heir for you.
Me: You know for us to get married Bastet have to be deemed dead first.
Tiffany: But she is dead that Alpha killed her.
Me: Yes, but Abrams does not think so. And until she is declared dead we can't marry.
Tiffany: But you are her widower you can deem her dead. Baby I do not want to bring a bastard into this world.
Me: I know baby and neither do I. But since all this is work-related he is in charge of all that and he will not do it until he is sure she is dead.
Tiffany: And if she somehow survived? What would that mean for us?
Me: If she is alive which I doubt, she will still be my wife.
Tiffany: So, you are not going to divorce her?
Me: Baby, I can't if I get a divorce, I will lose my position within the company.
Tiffany: SO, WHAT WILL I BE YOU MISTRESS AND OUR CHILDREN BE BASTARDS!
Me: No, my love that is not it. It is very complicated.
Tiffany: Just contact me when you come back from the mission.
I wanted to declare Bastet dead for a while. However, given the manner of our business, all of the death certificates are handled in-house. I will not be able to do anything unless Abrams retires or dies. I rather him retire than die. Tiffany has no idea if Bastet is alive, I will be charged with treason and beheaded.
Abrams plans to move once all of the men arrive. He plans on killing everyone, and no one not even the council can stop him. If Bastet is dead, he will find peace and move taking a pack of wolves with her. Everything is set up on our end all we are going to do is wait for the other to confirm when they get here.
**Bastet POV: **
I woke up from my nap and I am sandwiched between Seth and Danny. I could wake up like this every day. Both of their hands are on my stomach protecting the baby within it. Unfortunately, she likes to lay on my blatter. So now I have to get my fat ass out of the bed without walking up to both Seth and Danny. I slide down the bed landing on my feet. Thank goodness that I was able to get out without waking them up. The moan that left my mouth when I was able to finally pee.
When I got out Seth and Danny were looking at me with sleepy eyes. Danny reached his hand out for mine and I took a hit. He walked me to the bed then Seth went into the bathroom. When Seth came out Danny went in the bathroom next. These two are too cute.
“Danny, would you like to go outside a play?”, I asked him.
“No, I need to stay and protect the baby”, he said looking at my stomach.
“Danny, I got it you can go outside and play”, Seth said.
“Okay see you later”, he said then hugged me and kissed my stomach.
“I do not get a hug or a kiss?”, Stone said playfully.
“Come on Dad I am too big to hug you", Danny said seriously.
“But Bastet gets a hug”, Seth said faking being sad.
“Yeah, because an Alpha is never too old to hug his mom”, Danny said with a smile and ran out of the room.
“I have a letter Sol wrote you. Full disclosure I am not sure what is in the letter”, Seth said worried.
**Luna Bastet,
I am extremely sorry for the heinous act to you. I misplaced anger I had balled up inside me and I should not have been disrespectful to you. I was in a high temper for a personal issue. At that time I saw you as the reason for my anger.
I feel very ashamed of my act I have blamed you for something you did not do. I tried to talk out my anger and frustration with you. For that, I am writing this letter. Please accept my heartiest apology. I hope that as Luna to neighboring packs and sisters-in-law as well we can build a healthy relationship with each other.
Sincerely,
Luna Sol **
“That was better than I expected”, Seth said
“Dude were you reading my letter as I was reading it?”, I asked him.
“Hell, yeah I was just as interested as you were”, he said with a laugh.
“Okay, I will write her back later”, I said as I folded the letter back up.
I knew from the start that her issue was not solely with me. I will write her to accept her apology. I would like for us to become friends' hell our mates are brothers. We are both Lunas and our packs are side by side. Lost in my thoughts I did not even see Seth bring in my food. Come to think about it my appetite has not been so great. I think the pressure in my stomach is messing with my appetite. We ate then he got a mind link from Morton.
