7 years later.

"Mommy! Wake up! Daddy is breaking the kitchen!" I hear Lucy run into the room as I open my eyes to look at her. She lifts herself up on the bed and starts to jump on it.

"Mommy wake up!" She jumps higher.

"I'm awake," I laugh as she jumps onto me. I hold her as I sit up.

"What's wrong?" I ask and she grins up at me from my lap.

"Daddy is trying to make you breakfast," she laughs at me as I climb out of bed quickly.

Cole doesn't know how to cook breakfast. At all.

She raises her arms to me and I roll my eyes with a smile on my lips as I lift her up. I walk out of my room and head downstairs as I hear banging in the kitchen.

"Dad!" I hear Daniel groan. I step into the kitchen and put Lucy onto the ground. She runs to Ashton who lifts her up and makes her sit on his lap.

"Fuck sake," Cole groans as he throws a burnt pancake into the bin.

"Bad word, daddy," Lucy says as she shakes her head at him.

"Mom! You're not supposed to see this!" Daniel gasps as he notices me in the doorway.

I smile at him as he tries to cover the burnt toast on a plate.

"I saw it now baby. What are you doing, Cole?" I ask as he turns around and looks at me with a pan in his hand.

"Trying to apologise?" He shrugs his shoulders with a sheepish smile on his face.

"I made the toast," Daniel grins at me.

"I woke mommy up!" Lucy puts her hand up.

"I made the smiley face!" Ashton grins at me too.

I laugh.

"Go get ready for school. I'll make you breakfast," I say to them and they all nod as they run out of the kitchen.

I walk towards the fridge as Cole pouts at me.

"Come here," he holds his hand out to me.

"No," I say as I get the orange juice out and close the fridge.

"I said I'm sorry," he sighs.

"I don't accept it," I say as I hand him the orange juice and point to the glasses cupboard.

"I couldn't help it, baby," he groans and I try not to smile.

"Get the cereal out. They can eat that today. I'm going to go and get dressed quickly. You can do that without messing up right?" I ask him.

He rolls his eyes at me as I walk out of the kitchen and see Lucy climbing down the stairs. She sits down on the step and then slides down to the other and other until she reaches the bottom.

"Mommy! Can I go to school today?" She asks me as she looks up at me.

"Your school starts next week, darling. Why don't you get ready and I'll take you to the park this morning. We could go shopping for food. Daddy will burn everything," I say and she nods eagerly as she runs to the kitchen.

I head upstairs and head to the boys room. Ashton and Daniel. Ashton is my adopted son and Daniel is my first born child. His pregnancy was hard. Very hard because a lot of the pain was in my mind. I made myself so scared of giving birth to a baby that I was screaming before I even gave birth to him. Ashton and Daniel are the best sons I could ever ask for though. Ashton is a year older than him. I never knew the date Ashton was born on so I gave him a birthday to celebrate. The day we escaped. He doesn't need to know. I walk into their room to see Ashton tying Daniel's tie and he grins at me.

Daniel grins at me too.

"Mom, are you going to come to my play?" Daniel asks and I nod.

"Of course. Quickly get ready and then eat breakfast. Brush your teeth and we're off," I say to them and they nod as I walk out of their room and head to my room.

I close the door behind me and head to the bathroom. I brush my teeth quickly and take my clothes off. A quick five minute shower. I step into the shower and turn faucet to the middle and let the warm water trail over my body.

I quickly wash my hair and my body before I step out of the shower. I turn it off as I grab a blue towel and wrap it around my body. I walk out of my bathroom just as the bedroom door opens and Cole walks in. His eyes darken as he stares at me.

"No," I say shaking my head at him.

I walk towards the walk in closet and open the door as I hear him walk towards me.

"I said I'm sorry," he walks closer to me. I take a step back into the walk in closet as I face him.

"Cole, you got a boner in the graveyard," I say to him and he groans.

"You don't know how sexy you look in black," he steps closer to me.

I bite my lip to stop smiling.

Maybe I did tease him. Just a little. I wanted to see if he still found me attractive enough to get a boner in public. It worked. In a graveyard.

Cole grabs my arm and pulls me closer to him before I can take another step back. I let him grab a hold of the towel and pull it off, leaving me naked.

"10 minutes," I say to him as I step closer.

"20," he replies back as he leans down and places his lips on me. I moan.

"Daniel, go call Bethany," I tell him as I tie Ashton's laces up.

He runs upstairs and a few seconds later he comes downstairs with Bethany behind me.

"What's the point of going? We're late anyway," She groans as they wait near the door.

"It's education. Go help Lucy into the car," I hand her the keys and she frowns as she walks out of the door with all of them behind.

"I could take them," Cole mumbles against my neck as he wraps his arms around me from behind.

I lean into him.

"Do you think I'm a good mom?" I ask him softly.

He frowns as he places a kiss on my neck.

"Do you think I would have four kids with you if I didn't think you were a good mom?" He asks instead and I smile.

"I think there's something wrong with Ashton. He's too quiet today," I mumble to him quietly.

"First day of a new year. It's probably just nerves," Cole says and I nod as I lean back and place a kiss on his lips.

"I'll see you later," I grin as I pull away from him and walk out the door to the kids.

"Can you and dad stop kissing? It's weird," Bethany groans as I sit inside the drivers seat.

"You're going to meet someone that's going to kiss you too," I shrug my shoulders as I start the car.

"No she's not," Ashton and Daniel say together and high five each other.

I smile as I see Cole walk out of the house and towards me.

"Lucy? Want to stay with me? I'm going to the pack house," Cole asks her from the front seat.

She squeals and pulls her seat belt off her seat and nods her head. I laugh as Cole grins at her and walks around the car to get her out of the car.

Lucy waves at us goodbye as I start to drive to their school.

Cole and I had moved out of the pack house the moment I had found out I was pregnant with Daniel. Seven years ago. We were five minutes away from the pack house but we spent most of our time there. After Daniel, five years later I had Lucy who was about to be three soon. We were happy, and everything was perfect with us. We had routines and then sometimes we went crazy and did nothing for one day but just shift and run and see which one of the kids could catch us. Obviously none of them could.

Daniel and Lucy were wolves. They weren't born with my blue eyes which would indicate they were a tiger. I was okay with it. Cole was okay with it too. They were going to be wolves like Ashton and Bethany.

"Bye Mom," Bethany says as I park the car outside their school. She gets out of the car and runs to her friends as Daniel looks at Ashton who looks away from him.

"Mom," Daniel says to me and I turn to look at him in the back seat.

"Ashton doesn't want to go to school," he frowns at Ashton.

"You go to school and I'll talk to your brother," I say to him and he nods as he hugs Ashton tightly and then gets out of the car quickly. He runs inside the school.

"You want to go to the park with me?" I ask Ashton who nods his head quietly.

I smile at him as I drive off to the closest park to their school. After driving in silence for five minutes I pull up next to the park. I turn the car off and push my seat back a little.

"Come here," I say to him as I hold my hands out. I watch as he takes his seatbelt off and climbs over the handbrake and into my lap.

"What's wrong?" I ask as I wrap my arms around his body and hold him close to me.

"Nobody likes me in school and everyone likes Dani," he mumbles quietly as he rests his head against my shoulder.

"Why don't they like you? You're amazing," I ask as I frown.

"You can't tell Dani, okay mom?" He looks up at me and I nod.

Daniel is exactly like Cole. He gets angry without listening to a reason. He loves his family a lot. He expresses his emotions a lot. If he's sad, he'll make sure everyone knows it even if he has to stand in his room and scream loudly. If he's angry, he'll go outside and pull all the grass out of the ground near the tree and come running inside and throwing it on Lucy. He won't ever hurt Ashton. He's scared of Bethany because he's seen her use her powers when we train together, but Lucy is small. When he's happy, he'll let everyone know.

"Has Daniel been fighting in school?" I ask him and he nods.

"Only for me, Mom. I tell him there's no point in fighting because you teach us not to fight, but he says dad always told us to protect one another. So he fights with everyone for me," Ashton smiles a little.

I smile, shaking my head.

"Tell me why they don't like you?" I ask him.

"They say you're not my mom and the Alpha is not my dad," he mumbles under his breath. I sit up straighter.

"Who said that to you?" I ask frowning.

"The boys in school. Their mom's talk they said. Is it true, mom? Are you not my mom?" He asks looking up at me.

I try to think of a way to tell him.

"Ashton, you're a special boy, you know that right? And special boys sometimes have two moms. I am your mom, but your real mother? She's looking up at you from the stars. Just like my parents," I explain and he frowns.

"And my dad?" He asks.

"Your father is the star right next to your mother. Your dad is at home with Lucy. You are our son, Ashton. You're special to us," I say to him and he nods to himself.

"So I am your son?" He asks and I grin and nod.

"Of course you are. You're an Alpha's son. No one can say anything to you," I say and he nods his head.

"I am an Alpha's son," he says to himself and then looks up at me.

"Can we go back to school?" He asks and I nod.

"Of course," I say and he grins as he climbs off my lap and sits back in his booster seat. I pull my seat forward and turn the car on as Ashton grins at himself mumbling that he's an Alpha's son.

I start to drive back to his school.

Bethany already knew that she wasn't our real daughter. No one bullied her in school either. Tomorrow I would go talk to the school.

Ashton asked me today if I'm his real Mom, I tell Cole through our mindlink.

What did he say? Cole asks hesitantly.

That he's an Alpha's son, I grin as I hear Cole chuckle through the mindlink.

One more thing, I say.

Hmm? He hums to me.

I'm pregnant, I say as I park up next to Ashton's school.

WHAT? He shouts into my mind and I block him out as I turn to Ashton who takes his seatbelt off.

"I've got to go home now. Your dad might have fainted," I say to him and he looks at me confused but nods, " Go to school with your head held high. You're my son and no one can say anything to you. They can come and talk to me if they think they can laugh at you, okay? I'll be here later for Daniel's play," I say to him and he nods.

"Love you mom," he says as he gets out of the car and runs to school a little late.

I smile.

I can feel it. This one will be different. I can feel it being stronger. It will be like me. A tiger. My cub. And I will tell it, to never hide itself from anyone. To stand proud among wolves and to let everyone know that you are equal to them. You can be superior, but never below them. I will tell it to never hide in fear. To never not shift. I will tell it to be free and to be happy, because it has me as it's mother. It has Cole Damien as it's father. It has the Blood Moon Pack as it's family. It will never fear anyone. It will never hide from anyone. It will be free because I will protect my baby. Cole will protect it. We will shower it will love, so it will never feel any different than its siblings. I will never let it hate itself. I vow to protect every child of mine. Even if I never gave birth to two of them, they are my children. I will never stop loving them.
