The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 125

It’s only a week before my twentieth birthday and I’m becoming more nervous. On one hand, I don’t want it to come because I don’ t want to come into my full powers, but on the other, I’m anxious to see if Declan really is my mate. What I won’t give to have that special connection with someone. I had one with Gavin, to an extent, and he will always have my heart, but it was never the connection of fated mates and I know he wants me to be happy. I’ ve always had a stronger bond with Declan, so it makes sense that the Goddess would have fated us to each other.

I’ve been slowly coming around to believing that the Alpha of Storm River really is my fated mate. Why we have had to go through everything that we have, I’m not sure at all, but the Goddess always has a reason for why she does things the way she does. It’s strange that she would present the obstacles that she has, for example, Lila. Wouldn’t it be easier to just let Declan and I be with each other, and choose one another if we were fated? Why have us go our separate ways, and each bear a pup from another. I thought mate bonds are supposed to be sacred. It’s almost as if the Goddess pushed Lila and Gavin into our lives. I won’t complain, though, because I definitely got the better end of the deal.

I chuckle at the thought, and for a moment, I swear I could hear Gavin’s chuckle as well as the breeze comes through the office window. I smile towards the window, “I miss you, Gavin. I hope you know that you will always hold a huge chunk of my heart.” In that moment, a familiar scent, one that I will never forget because it’s his scent, dances on the breeze, making me smile.

Instead of staying stuffed in my office, I go in search of Demi, who has my son at the moment. I want to take a walk on this gorgeous

afternoon, and I want my son with me. He’s growing too fast for my liking, and I want to spend as much time with him as I can. All too soon, he will be crawling, and then walking, and then next thing I know, he will be starting school. I know all too well how busy an Alpha and Luna can get, so I want to make sure that I always find time for my children.

I find Demi in the back yard, watching Ayden play on the playset while holding Ash in her arms. I had sent my Beta to the human town to find the biggest playset to put up in the back yard. It now looks like a miniature park in the backyard, and even though there is a park close by, I love the fact that I can sit out here to watch the kids enjoy themselves without leaving the pack house.

“I was just going to come find you, Luna. Ash is starting to get fussy for his feeding.” Demi informs me.

I glance at my watch, “Oh wow, I hadn’t realized it was that late already. Here, I was going to take him for a walk anyway, so I’ll find a nice quiet spot and let him feed.”

I cradle Ash in my arms as I walk across the backyard towards the tree line. I know the perfect secluded spot under a cherry blossom tree. I visit it often when I need to feel close to Gavin because it’s where we came a few times to have our private moments. Who knows, it could have been one of those moments that created this little bundle of joy in my arms.

Leaning back against the tree, I lift my shirt up and bring my son to my breast. He’s a hungry little pup as he latches on in an instant and starts sucking vigorously. I can’t help but laugh, “I’m sorry for making you wait, little man.”

Closing my eyes, I listen to the sound of the small field that the
