Chapter 165
We made it back to the packhouse safely, relieved that Anton had not been caught and hurt more. I was worried sick during the whole ride back, but glad to see that he was alive and being taken care of. Alexei informed us that Anton needed a transfusion of venom to heal, and we soon had him being treated at the pack hospital. Cheryl was emotional seeing her mate being treated, and I let the boys stay with Robert and Kevin while I stayed with her to support her.
As we got settled in, I realized that the new packhouse was nearly ready, but we still needed to get the residents moved in. We had planned to have about 40 people work in the various areas, and were still waiting for them to be assigned. I mindlinked the children and let them know we were back, and they quickly settled in with Robert and Kevin. Justin and I later went out to get the families settled in, and the boys even asked if Henry, Jon, and Atlas could spend the night with them, which was a great way for them to bond.
Chapter 166
As I ran home to shower, I couldn’t help but think about the past year of abuse and trauma I suffered at the hands of Blake. With every step, my anger and frustration grew. I had been so close to killing Raven, Blake’s mistress, but she had managed to escape. I knew something must have happened to cause Blake to become so enraged with her, but I couldn’t escape the feeling that she was just pawns in his twisted game.
After my shower, I dressed in a new outfit and headed to find something to eat. I was glad to have some time to myself, something I hadn’t had in a long time. I had a lot to think about and plan, and I knew that taking down Blood Walker and Black Adder wouldn’t be easy. But I was determined to teach them a lesson and reassert my dominance. I also couldn’t help but think about Cassandra, my deceased mate, and the pain she had caused me by leaving me.
Chapter 167
Seven months had passed since I, Cheryl, decided to become a vampire and be with Anton forever. Our new home, built by Anton, was a wonderland for our boys, with six bedrooms, a game room, home office, and a home gym. The “hang-out” area for boys featured arcade games, a large TV, and plenty of seating. Each room was soundproofed, and the snack area was stocked with all kinds of treats. The pool table, foosball, and air hockey tables made the boys’ room a popular spot. Anton spared no expense, and his thoughtfulness made me love him even more.
Anton’s office was filled with books and storage space, with a picture of us on his desk. He was training our boys with their friends, and Justin was impressed with his teaching skills. I was also training with Anton to stay safe, and our bond was growing stronger every day. I was grateful to have found a pack where the vampires were accepted and respected. My decision to become a vampire had been the best one I’d ever made, knowing that I’d get to be with Anton for the rest of my life. I loved his thoughtful nature, and the way he made me feel. I was content knowing that our time together would only get better.
Chapter 168
I woke up in a hospital bed, surrounded by worried faces. Anton rushed in, concerned about what had happened, and I told him I had been tired lately and may have overexerted myself. The doctor was on his way, and Anton stepped out to make a call. As the others waited, I tried to reassure them that I would be fine with some rest. Doctor Gurin and Doctor Max arrived, and after checking me over, they asked everyone to leave the room, suspecting something odd was going on. Anton was worried, and Alexei stood by his side, trying to calm him down.
As the doctors continued their examination, they revealed that they suspected a problem with my pregnancy, now a fact that was not publicly known. They asked me to pull down my leggings for a ultrasound, and I felt Anton tense up as Doctor Max approached me. Alexei smoothly intervened, and Doctor Gurin took over the examination. As they looked at the screen, they seemed focused on something, and Doctor Gurin whispered that it was impossible and that the Goddess and Maacah must have done this.
Chapter 169
I’m still trying to gain control over the pack, but it’s not happening easily. My mate, Blake, is still in a cell, and I’ve been trying to get my hands on Reagan, but she’s hard to find. I’ve been sending men to watch the gate at Black Adder, where Raven and his pack are located, but I haven’t gotten a visual of her yet. I suspect she’s with Raven, but I’m trying to bide my time to avoid suspicion.
Forest, my son, just entered my office, looking angry and frustrated. He handed me his phone, and I saw a picture of Cheryl, now married to a vampire, Silas. I was stunned, and then I saw more pictures, including one of Reagan and Raven together, looking happy for Cheryl. I’m shocked and can’t understand why Cheryl would marry a vampire, and why Reagan and Raven would hide their presence at Black Adder. Forest is ashamed of his mother’s actions, and I’m struggling to figure out my next move. I need to get my money back, and I need to take control of the pack. But it seems like everything is working against me, and I’m starting to lose my temper.
Chapter 170
I’m surprised to see Forest with Graham, but I still don’t want to talk to them. Graham says he has an offer for me, but I’m skeptical and tell them to leave. I’m still hurt and angry about what they’ve done to me, and I don’t want to forgive them. Graham tries to apologize and says he wants to help me get Cheryl back into the pack, but I’m not convinced.
Graham reveals that Cheryl is pregnant, which comes as a shock to me. I’m struggling to keep my emotions in check and turn my back on them. I think about Cheryl and how much I miss her, and how we could have been happy if it weren’t for Graham’s manipulation. I realize that I hurt her and that Forest is not Alphamaterial. Graham’s offer to help me get Cheryl back is tempting, but I know he has an ulterior motive. I’m waiting to hear what else he has to say, but I’m not sure if I’ll play along or not.
Chapter 171
Three days ago, a meeting was held at Black Adder to discuss the upcoming attack on Black Moon. Graham, the Alpha of Black Moon, was struggling to come up with a plan and was running out of money. Cole, Raven, Reagan, and other pack members were present, and they needed to come up with a plan to progress. However, Graham’s ego was not making things easy, and Cole proposed a plan to test him and make him react. The idea was to make Graham think that they were all spending the pack’s funds and that Cheryl was doing much better than before, which would infuriate him.
The plan involved taking pictures of the pack’s luxurious rooms and implying that they were all spending the money as a group. They also sent a message to Council member Arnold Emerson to help with the plan. Meanwhile, Blake, who was still at Black Moon, was a wild card and could potentially play a role in the plan. The group knew that Blake was vengeful and had an attachment to Cheryl, which could lead him to play along with the plan to get her back and then leave Graham and Forest high and dry.
Chapter 172
Reagan arranged for the needed materials for our pack’s training, which included weapons and a chance to reuse arrows. We’ve realized that Graham’s plans may extend beyond just wolves, so we’re preparing for any contingency. We’re also protecting the vampires who will be assisting us, including Alexei’s coven. To build trust, the coven has been attending our pack dinner three times a week, and we’ve started a question-and-answer session once a week. Cheryl and Anton’s love story is a popular topic, and they’ve been open about their bond and what it feels like. The pack members have been asking questions too.
Tonight, my mates and I are celebrating our anniversary, the first time we were together as a triad. We’ve planned a special dinner in our room, and the boys are spending the night at Cheryl and Anton’s house with their friends. The babies could arrive at any time, and I’m excited to give the boys more time to play together before they arrive. As Cheryl’s pregnancy progresses, Doctor Gurin is monitoring her closely, and Anton has installed a portable ultrasound machine in their home. I’m curious about the changes in Cheryl and how the boys are adjusting. This evening is special for me, and I’m looking forward to a relaxing bath and a celebratory dinner with my mates.
Chapter 173
I’m trying to control my rage and disappointment towards Forest, Graham, and the others for betraying me. I can’t believe they thought I’d just follow them without question after all the abuse and pain I suffered. I’m praying that they’ll get killed during the attack, and I might even take matters into my own hands. I need to speak to Aaron, but they’re always watching me, asking if I’ve forgiven them for the daily abuse. I forgive them for the broken ribs, bruises, and torn ligaments, but that’s not what I want. I want revenge.
I’m focusing on training my warriors, making sure they’re prepared for the attack. I know Graham and the others are not paying attention, and I pray that they’ll get what’s coming to them. I’m also trying to get a phone so I can communicate with Aaron, but I know it won’t be easy. I’m stuck between my anger and my desire for revenge, but I know I need to keep my focus on protecting my warriors and preparing for the attack.
Chapter 174
Two months had passed since I found out I was pregnant with twins, and I could feel the babies getting close to arrival. Anton was ecstatic, and even Doctor Gurin seemed happy about this unexpected turn of events. We had decided to keep the news a secret until the babies arrived, and Anton had prepared the nursery rooms to perfection. I was excited to meet my twins soon and had mentally planned out the rooms, including the colors, decorations, and bassinet deliveries.
As my due date approached, I couldn’t help but worry about the impending battle with Blake’s coven. Anton wanted me to stay behind to protect Robert and the twins, but I wanted to be with him during the fight. The thought of being separated from him scared me, and I knew I had to be strong for both of us. I was also concerned about the babies’ future, especially since phasing into a vampire while pregnant was unknown territory. Despite these fears, I felt grateful for Anton’s love and support, knowing he would do everything to keep me and our babies safe.
Chapter 175
As Cheryl gets ready to discuss her concerns with Anton about attending the impending battle against Black Moon, she’s already worked up and passionate about her argument. However, Anton surprises her by pointing to a picture of their happy family, including the boys, and reminding her of their reasons for sticking together. He uses his hands to rub Cheryl’s stomach, and the babies react by kicking, which they both find exciting.
Anton reassures Cheryl that he understands her fear of losing him, but promises to stay safe and come back to her and their children. He also takes time to remind Cheryl of their strengths as a couple and the support they receive from their coven and friends. Although she still worries about his safety, Cheryl begins to calm down, knowing that Anton has everything under control. They spend the rest of the evening having a romantic dinner together, with Anton recreating their first date meal, which has become a special memory for them.
Chapter 176
Anton stayed by Cheryl’s side throughout the labor process, holding her hand and whispering words of encouragement. She was grateful to have him there, unlike her previous experience with Blake, who only showed up at the end to see the baby after the labor was complete. Anton was a source of comfort and support, and Cheryl felt like he was really enjoying the experience, proud to be the “dad” and telling anyone who came into the room that the babies were his. The babies, Maksim and Milena, were born around 8 am, and Anton was overjoyed, holding them both in his arms and gazing at them with love.
As the family gathered to meet the new additions, Anton was beaming with pride, and the boys, Kevin and Robert, were excited to meet their new siblings. Cheryl couldn’t help but smile as she watched Anton interact with the babies, and the boys holding them for the first time. Anton was thorough in checking the twins’ health, and he was ferocious in protecting them, even interrogating Doctor Gurin with questions. The family was full of excitement and love as they welcomed the new twins, and Cheryl felt grateful to have Anton by her side throughout the experience.
Chapter 177
As I began to test Blake’s loyalty, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of disdain for him. I needed his help to take down Black Adder, but I didn’t trust him. I had been having him followed since he agreed to help us, and I was determined to know his true intentions. I revealed my plan to him, knowing he would be angry, and indeed he was. I intended to hurt him, to pay him back for all the times he had punished me during my imprisonment. I was angry and needed an outlet for all the pain he had put me through.
I noticed that Blake was quieter now, and I hoped it was because he was planning to take down the leech who had stolen my mate away from me. I had also gathered a group of rogue vampires to help us with the battle, and I was glad to have their support. I planned to test Blake further, to see if he would truly be on our side or if he would betray us. I was willing to do whatever it took to ensure the success of our mission, even if it meant killing him off as a threat. I was determined to catch Black Adder off guard, and I would do whatever it took to make that happen.
Chapter 178
Blake is frustrated with Graham, who he believes has been poking around and making assumptions about the pack’s dynamics. Blake knows that Graham thinks they are inferior and easily manipulated, but he’s determined to prove him wrong. To deter Graham, Blake deliberately arrives late to the meeting, standing in the room where Garrett and Marc are waiting, which makes them uneasy. Blake also critiques Forest, who he thinks is incompetent and spoiled, and reveals his disappointment with Forest’s lack of leadership skills.
As Blake reflects on his past mistakes, he realizes that he was blinded by his own biases and that Forest was the wrong choice to succeed him as Alpha. Blake mentions that he deceived himself into thinking Kevin was responsible for his problems, when in reality, Jimmy took Kevin away without consulting him. He also admits to regretting his decision to let Forest become the next Alpha. Graham’s plan to attack Black Adder is revealed, and Blake is determined to stop him, knowing that Graham will stop at nothing to punish those he blames for his downfall, particularly Raven, who he believes is responsible for his problems.
Chapter 179
Brandon’s phone rang in the office, and he answered it, recognizing the voice of Blake from the Black Moon pack. Blake warned Brandon that Graham, the alpha of the Black Moon pack, is testing his loyalty and has given him a date for an attack on Brandon’s pack. Brandon’s pack is not going to give Graham any room to try to lay siege on them, and they are stocking up for their final preparations. Blake also mentioned that Aaron, from the Black Moon pack, has rejected Graham’s offer and it’s probable that Graham is angry.
Blake continued to inform Brandon that Graham intends to attack, and it will either be before or after the date he gave Blake. He also warned Brandon that Graham is controlling the loyalty of Forest and others with money, and that Garrett and Marc will be joining them in the fight. Blake’s main goal is to protect Cheryl, Kevin, and the baby from Graham’s harm, as he has been cruel to them in the past. He promised to do his best to keep them safe and to warn Brandon if he hears anything.
