Annabelle
I hung up with my daughter and frowned. It bothered me a great deal that my children's mates had gone through abuse at the hands of their father. My Adam had been ruthless, but he had cared for his family and sacrificed himself for us.
I picked up my phone and looked at the number Gena had sent me. My plan was to text Ava Lustrous and invite her over to my house for lunch. I labelled the number in my phone then opened a new chat.
Ava Lustrous
Hello Ava, this is Annabelle
I am Yarrow's mother.
Ava
Good afternoon Annabelle, how can I help you?
We haven't gotten to meet and with grandpups on the way. I wanted to see if you were available for lunch tomorrow. So we can get to know each other.
Ava That sounds grand! Where will we meet?
My home dear, 506 east Wolfwing Avenue. It's the big house with the Lexus out front.
Ava
Oh wow, ok I'll see ya tomorrow at noon!
I'll see you then dear Ava.
I smiled as I put my phone away and walked out to my pool, it would be nice to take a swim.
Chance
I awoke with my mate sprawled across my chest, my cock still deep inside her and semi hard. Gena moaned and began to grind against me as she woke already wanting another round with me.
"Mmmmm yes." She moaned as my cock hardened fully inside her and I began to groan at her movements.
She rode me like she had last night, making me arch into her and thrust up to help her climb to her climax. This time my hands were free and I held her hips moving her along as we rode out our pleasure together.
Her hand dropped to her clit and soon she was crying out her walls clenching tightly around me as she came, I let out a long low growl as I came with her, my tired balls still filling her to overflowing with my seed, despite her trying to drain me overnight.
"Good morning mate. Now that we are thoroughly fucked. We must talk." She said and kissed my head before sliding off me and heading to her bathroom. I heard the shower turn on and got up following her into the bathroom and large walk in shower. As the steaming hot water hit me my mating frenzy cooled and my thoughts returned to me.
"What ya wanna talk bout, my mate?" I asked and she frowned,
"Not here my love, over coffee. For now let me wash you." she purred and began to run soaked hands over me, making me groan as she explored my body.
The shower had been slow and methodical, not hurried like last night, she had let me make slow sweet love to her pressed up against the wall of the shower, and her cries as she came had been soft whimpers of pleasure instead of the snarls of ecstasy I had heard before.
Now as I watched her move around her kitchen in her tight jeans and form fitting t-shirt I wondered what was so important she couldn't tell me in the shower.
She set a cup of coffee in front of me and I thanked her then she slid her laptop onto the kitchen island in front of me and settled by my side.
"We need to talk about Nyx." she said and I froze.
'How much does she know, how much did Vanny tell her?' I thought in a panic.
"I know about the abuse, but you don't know about the affair." Gena said and I got a sick feeling in my stomach.
"A-affair? No way he's steppin out on momma." I said, growing angry at the thought. Gena sighed and pulled up several still images of my dad with a beautiful girl that was younger even than me.
"What the fuck?" I whispered then she pulled up the video and my stomach sank.
He was fucking her, aggressively, he was cheating on momma. I saw red and snarled standing from my chair as she shut down the video and stood with me placing a soothing hand on my cheek.
"We are confronting him today, about the abuse, about the affair. My mom is in charge of helping Ava through the fallout. Will you stand with us?" Gena asked and I nodded.
"Momma's gonna be crushed, she gave him everythin. Everythin!" I slammed my fist into the counter and felt bones crack. Gena embraced me and pulled me into the middle of the living room.
"Chance, my mom will handle Ava. She is a kind soul and will be perfect comfort for your momma." She said and I held her close and began to cry, "Oh, oh no, big guy." She whispered and pulled me to the couch where she held me till my shaking and tears stopped.
Yarrow
Vanny paced my office anxiously chewing her nails while Gena sat calmly in an agitated Chance's lap trying to sooth him.
"Vanny, honey, please you'll agitate the pups if you don't calm down." I scolded and she finally came and curled into my lap letting me run my hands over her pregnant belly.
"We still have about thirty minutes before he's supposed to be here guys. Come on big guy, I need you to chill out some of that rage." Gena said and kissed Chance on the nose making him visibly relax.
"We'll be having pups at almost the same time, Vanny! We can raise them together!" Gena said happily.
Suddenly the door burst open and an unamused voice said, "Great, more mixed pack blooded mongrels."
Nyx Lustrous stood in the doorway eyeing Gena and Chance in disgust, but Vanny leapt to her feet and snarled, "Sit down father!" Nyx looked at her in surprise and then rage before quietly sitting in the chair across from the desk. Gena slid from Chance's lap and they both stood behind the desk.
I stood too, "I've spoken with the elders, yer banned from Moon pack." Vanny said and Nyx leapt to his feet snarling.
"Ya can't ban me from Moon pack! I fuckin built this pack!" Nyx roared and Vanny spat back.
"And ya fuckin abandoned It to chase tail!" Gena hit the video on the laptop sitting front and center on the desk, showing Nyx the video of himself with Kena.
"Kena has been banned from the Blood pack for her part in this." I said, my voice emotionally empty. Nyx slammed the laptop shut and growled his eyes desperate as he glanced at Chance.
"And what, ya gonna stand against me too now that ya got a pretty little cunt to fuck?" Nyx growled and Gena snapped.
Chance took a step back as his mate roared leaping forward and swiping a transformed handful of claws across Nyx's face.
"My mate is strong enough to stand against you regardless of me." Gena scoffed and went back to Chance's arms, Nyx growled, wiping the blood from his already healing face.
"Go home and pack yer things. Row and Chance are goin with ya, to make sure ya don't mess with momma's stuff." Vanny growled and I moved next to Nyx my eyes piercing into him a reminder of who was stronger.
"Ava is with my mom, getting an explanation of your abuse, and your affair. With video." I said and he paled, his eyes taking on a defeated look.
He quietly followed me from my office with Chance behind him, I heard my Vanny burst into tears and Gena comforting her. It would be good to have this wolf out of the pack, he was as much to blame for the war as my father or Adonis.
Annabelle
I smiled as I put the last strawberry flower on the intricate fruit salad I had made. I smiled at the beautiful table of finger foods and delicate tea sandwiches I had made for my lunch with Ava Lustrous. My only hope was it would take some of the sting from what I had to show her, that video was so vulgar.
The doorbell rang and I gave a little hop of excitement as I raced to the door and stopped for a moment to smooth the form fitting, knee length, cream colored dress I had chosen and run fingers through my long silky blonde hair. 'Why am I suddenly nervous?' I thought.
Maybe because her children clearly got their looks from her, and they were stunning. I opened the door and she stole my breath away. She was small only five feet tall, with shoulder length red hair like her daughter, bright blue eyes, and a sprinkling of freckles over her nose.
Her smile made my heart stop and her scent was like fresh apples and cinnamon, I wanted to bathe in it.
"A-ava! So glad you came!" I said and silently cursed my stutter, I wanted to take her to my bedroom not my kitchen. 'What the hell is going on!?' I thought I hadn't lost my composure like that since Adam.
I moved so Ava could come in and she marveled at my home, "Why thank ya darlin, I am just blown away by yer beautiful house!" Ava said as she followed me to the kitchen.
"And whatever fragrance ya have on is divine." she drawled and I froze.
"Ava I'm not wearing..." I trailed off as she looked at me curiously, her eyes a little clouded with something I couldn't read.
"Thank you Ava." I said simply and pulled out a chair for her, she gushed at me and sat oohing and aahing over the intricate set up. I sat next to her at the end of the table and placed my hand on her knee.
"Dear Ava, I'm afraid I brought you here under some false pretenses." I said and she looked up suddenly from my hand blushing.
"What? I don't understand, Anna." she said and I shivered at the nickname.
"Today, your mate is being banned from the pack." I said and her hands flew to her mouth, her eyes wide and rapidly filling with tears.
