The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 38

Declan

Holden Storm arrived a week early and gave his mother one hell of a ride during delivery. After twenty-six hours of labor, she was able to push out the eight-pound, four-ounce little heir. I was in total awe of my son from the moment he was born. I was hoping to see some of myself in him, but he looks like his mother. The only thing that could possibly be mine would be his eyes, but his mother has brown eyes as well, so yeah, he’s all his mother. It doesn’t make me love him any less.

He’s a handsome little guy, though. Even Dr. Langley said that he is the best-looking baby that he’s ever delivered. He’s definitely going to be a ladies’ man when he’s older, I’m going to have to teach him to stay far away from the women like his mother. Of course, I won’t name her personally, but you get the gist of it.

I’m a very hands-on father and I do whatever needs to be done to make sure all of my boys’ needs are taken care of. I am the one that gets up with him during the night for his feedings, as long as Lila has pumped enough for me to feed him without having to wake her up. I’ve temporarily moved Lila into the Luna’s Quarter’s making sure that I stress the point that it is only temporary. Only until Holden starts sleeping through the night, then it’s back to the second floor for her.

It’s already been a few weeks since we brought my son home and he’s already grown so much. Unless he is eating, sleeping, or I’m away on pack business, you can always find him in my arms. It doesn’t matter how much book work I have; I will have him in one arm while I write with the other. My son will never go without knowing what a father’s love is. My father was the best, and I plan on being just like him for my own son.

I’m in my office blowing raspberries on Holden’s tummy when my cell rings. I glance over and see that its Deke calling me, so I put it on speakerphone, “What’s up, Cuz?” I blow more raspberries.

“I need you to meet me at the border of Dark Moon’s territory, if you’re not busy.” My cousin states, stopping me in mid-blow.

“Why are you going to Quinn’s territory?” I ask, as a bad feeling comes over me.

“Her Beta called and informed me that while Alpha Quinn was out for a run, she came across a dead she-wolf hanging from a tree. She believes it’s my Beta’s eldest daughter.” He explains with a heaviness in his voice.

“Of course, I will meet you. I will leave as soon as I find Lila, so she can take Holden.”

“Thank you, Declan. I wouldn’t ask you, because of your situation, but I think I may need help once my Beta realizes that it’s his daughter.”

“You didn’t tell him?” I ask.
