Epilogue

**Luna**...**Four** **months** **later**


"Mama! Have you seen his pacifier?" I call out from the kitchen where I am elbows deep in my diaper bag.

"Check the couch!" My mom calls out from the doorway.

I rush over and dig around the cushions looking for the missing pacifier, and strike gold.

"Ha! Found it!" I call out running to rinse it off and adding it to the bag.

I check once again to make sure I have everything.

"I'm sure whatever you forgot the guys will get for him." My mom reminds me and I nod.

She's right. The guys are good about making sure our little man gets what he needs.

"Are you nervous?" My mom asks when the three of us file out the door.

She hands me my little man and I smile down at his adorable chubby face.

Jaxson was born at exactly three months. A beautiful healthy baby boy that looks just like me. All golden hair and golden eyes. It was the most amazing moment of my life and I have adored every second he has been on this earth. He is an amazing baby and is so loved.

The day I woke up in the hospital and find out about him I decided that he was my fresh start. Every other bad thing that happened to me before him was left in the past. Sure I have my bad days just like anyone else, but I try to enjoy the happiness that comes from being his mom.

The pack adored him the second they met him and adore him as much as I do. He couldn't have been born into a more loving family, even with all of our demons. Just like me, the guys left their troubles behind and let Jaxon's birth be the first day of a brighter life for them.

"God we are so late!" I grumble as mom and I rush toward the car.

"They will understand. It isn't the first time." She offers me and I laugh.

She's right there. Having the little guy means we are pretty much late everywhere we go. Today though I can not be late, it's too important. I quickly strap Jaxon in the car seat and climb into the passenger seat while mom starts the car.

The drive is short since we are staying close by but parking is a mess.

"Should I take him?" Mom asks when we finally find a parking spot.

"No I want to go together and then you can take over," I tell her and she nods.

We climb out of the car and grab Jaxon and all of his stuff. Did you know how much stuff you need in a diaper bag for a day trip? A lot! My mom takes the diaper bag and I strap Jaxon into the carrier so that he can rest comfortably against my chest. With this many people around I think it comforts him.

"I see them," Mom yells over the crowd pointing off to the left of us.

I follow her finger and see a facial face. It takes a moment for Bennett to spot us but when he does he gives us a sweet smile. We head for him and he immediately greets my mom with a kiss on the cheek and a warm hug.

"Hey, guys." He says before turning to me.

Our eyes meet and I feel a wave of emotions.

"Hi, Luna." He says just loud enough for me to hear.

"Hey," I say back and then we are quiet again, watching each other.

"Oh for heaven's sake you two. You act as though you haven't seen each other in years." mom says laughing.

That makes Bennett smile widen and he steps forward and reaches out for me. With Jaxon between us, it makes things a little trickery but he is able to lean over and give me one of his breath-stealing kisses.

"Any time away from you is too long." He says against my lips and I swear I swoon from his words.

All my guys have had that effect on me since day one.

After I asked them to leave me alone that day I knew we could never be apart again. Only a door separated us and I felt the loss as if a part of me had been torn from my body. The thought of leaving them and never being close to them again was bad enough that all my fears and sadness weren't enough for me to push them away. I needed them no matter what, and they needed me.

In the end, they promised me that they would never sing the song from the night of my accident again. Even with my objections, they removed the song both from their tour and their album. I told them that it didn't matter and that I loved them too much to let them cut out a part of their music for me. They told me that they couldn't bring themselves to ever sing it again knowing what it represented to me, so I had no choice but to let it go.

They did however replace it with a song they wrote about me. To my horror, they named it Luna and sang it act the very next show after my release from the hospital. Fans were shocked but ended up loving the song. The guys and I continued on the tour until Jaxon was born. The label was able to work things out allowing us all to enjoy a couple of months to enjoy parenthood before the guys started up their tour again. Unfortunately with Jaxon being so young, I have had to miss quite a few shows but we still travel with the band.

My travel nest now has all of Jaxon's stuff too. Mom and Ben have joined us and taken Bennett's trailer while he stays with Jaxon and me. Well, all the guys squeeze in with us, but officially Bennett and I are roomies. We have all been inseparable since the day Jaxon was born and I wouldn't change a thing.

Well, maybe one thing.

I wish Bailey was here to share all these changes with me, but there will be someone who can. To my utter surprise, mom and Ben are expecting a baby. My new little sister will be born in three months and she and Jaxon will get to grow up together. She can never replace Bailey, but knowing someone in this world that is connected with her will be a part of our lives makes it feel like she will be with us.

I couldn't ask for a better life.

"Ready love?" Bennett asks reaching for Jaxon. "He'll be just fine with me and grandma."

I pout and look down at my baby boy. "Yeah, I guess."

Bennett helps me remove Jaxon from the carrier and takes him.

"The others are waiting for you." He says leaning down and kissing me. "Enjoy the show okay?"

I nod and he waves me off.

He and my mom are taking Jaxon for a few hours so I can watch the guys perform for the first time in months. I wonder in the direction of the stage and show my pass to security as I go. As soon as I see my guys my whole body warms and I rush toward them. I wrap myself in Kai's arms first and he greets me with a searing kiss then passes me to Rowan. Down the line, I go until I have greeted each of my Alphas.

"Glad your here baby," Rowan says kissing me on the forehead. "How's the little man?"

"Perfect as always," I say happily.

He chuckles and pulls me into one more hug.

"Just like you." He whispers into my ear and I can't hold back my smile.

These guys sure know how to make a girl weak.

The announcer calls out the name of the band and my guys step back from me.

"Showtime baby!" Kai yells leaving a smacking kiss on my lips before running on stage.

I laugh and wave as the others join him.

"Ladies and gentlemen thank you for joining us tonight! A lot has happened for our band recently and we appreciate your kindness and understanding. We also want to thank the amazing woman who is the inspiration for our first song. Luna, you are the best thing that has ever happened to us!" Milo says into the mic.

All of the guys are watching me with so much love and appreciation that I can't help but cry.

This past year has been a whirlwind, but it led me here. It led me to my pack and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.




THE END.
