Filed to story: Rylee the Orphan Luna Novel
“What if she tries to hurt our baby?”
“She can’t. Even if you’re not my ‘mate’, I made a baby with Megan, so that baby is the heir to an Alpha. If she even tries to come near you or our pup, she will be executed without prior approval from the elders, and she knows that. So, unless she is really stupid and has an actual death wish, she’ll back off for a little bit. Though, I can’t say you two won’t have a few words with each other,”
“I’ll gladly have a few words with her,” I grit my teeth.
“Rylee, you can’t use your powers, at least not in front of other pack members, you know that,” I nodded my head.
“What about the birth? I can’t give birth here,”
“Why not? Humans have home births all the time dearest, it will be the exact same thing,”
“What are you going to tell the pack when you have to step away when the time comes?”
“I’ll just say that I need time to myself. That I’m officially feeling the effect of losing my mate and that I need time to officially cope with the loss. Since everyone will know the truth before then, it will make it easier for me to get away, and give them time to prepare,” “What about Angelo and Michelle, are you going to tell them too?”
“I’m going to have to. Remember, Angelo saw you at the hotel that day, he’s going to remember you, and he’s going to know something is up if he sees you and our pup,” I just nodded my head. “Besides, I think you, my sister, and Michelle will be able to bond with your newborns together,”
“Oh, that reminds me, how are they? What did Melody have? Michelle?”
“Dot had a little girl, her name is Leighann. Michelle had a little boy, his name is Nicholai, but everyone calls him Nick for short,” Wyatt showed me a picture of them, and I couldn’t help but coo. The minute that I did, my pup kicked me hard.
“OW! Ugh, why are you getting jealous?” I asked my pup.
“Hey, you be nice to your momma,” Wyatt said putting his hand to my stomach and immediately I felt him or her turn and calm down.
“Well, now I know who he or she is going to be listening to more often,”
“You don’t know what we’re having?” he asked me, and I shook my head.
“I want it to be a surprise. That’s why a lot of the baby stuff is gender-neutral,” Wyatt looked around and saw how I had my room split up into a nursery. He went over to the crib and picked up the stuffed wolf and showed it to me. “What? I needed to find some way to show our baby who their father is,”
“Rylee, tell me, did Lorenzo and Olivia tell you that I needed to be there for the birth of our pup?”
“They did, but only because I caught them talking behind my back and forced it out of them. Lorenzo has hidden quite a bit from me, and it’s gotten quite irritating,”
“Like what?”
“Everything really. That our pups will be powerful Primordials, even more, powerful than me, that in order for me to gain all of my powers, I had to have a pup first and that you need to be there, that the vampire will eventually find me, and who knows what else,” “What do you mean the vampire will eventually find you?” I explained my premonition to Wyatt and how William called an inner body premonition making it that much more likely to happen. Wyatt closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
“Wyatt, I can hear your thoughts. Don’t blame yourself. All of this happened because of Layla,”
“I know baby, but I still can’t but feel responsible,”
“Wyatt, I don’t think your actions did anything honestly. I think the moment she made my mark on you disappear opened the window for the vampire, so this all started because of her,”
“But I didn’t do anything to prevent it from getting worse,” I got up from the bed and held his hands in mine.
“Wyatt, did you get my letter?”
“I did, I read it every day,”
“Then you know that I told you not to blame yourself once you got your memories back and that I never once blamed you or hated you. Right now it’s not a question of whether or not I forgive you, because you already know I do. You need to forgive yourself,” I didn’t have to read his thoughts for me to know that his guilt was eating him up inside. I just hoped that we could work through this together, and he could finally let go of his guilt.
***Wyatt’s P.O.V.***
After Rylee and I talked, I ended up staying for dinner, and Olivia lifted the cloaking spell for me so that I could see everyone in their true form. I had to admit, Olivia wasn’t a bad looking witch, but seeing Rylee in her true skin again may my heart flutter and Blade actually purred seeing her. Big bad alpha wolf purred seeing our mate after so many months.
“Alpha, please forgive us for hiding her, we didn’t think that….”
“Please Olivia, call me Wyatt, and it’s water under the bridge. I know you and Lorenzo only did what you thought was best for her, and I appreciate you two keeping her safe all this time. And watching over her during her pregnancy. I’m grateful,” I tell her. “I also want to keep you two in the loop. When the time comes for Rylee to give birth, I’m going to have our pack doctor help her deliver, here,”
“HERE!?”
“Alpha, how can you be sure he won’t say anything to anyone?” Lorenzo asked.
“Dr. Andrews as you know is a very trustworthy pack member, and he has a great friendship with my father. He cares deeply for Rylee, and he will do whatever it takes to keep her safe. He won’t tell a soul about who she is. He hasn’t even told anyone about her pregnancy, my mother saw to that,”
“I trust Dr. Andrews you guys,” Rylee said to them. Lorenzo and Olivia looked at each other a minute and then nodded. After dinner, we had dessert and talked some more about what the plan was.
“Wyatt, this is a risky plan, because Rylee’s premonition foresaw Alessandro finding her after she gave birth,” Lorenzo said to me.
“Dearest, do you remember what form you were in when you had your premonition?” I asked her.
“I honestly have no idea. I don’t even know what room what I was in. The floor was a black hole and the crib was on the other side of the room,”
“Well then it wasn’t this room here,” Olivia said. “The crib is right next to your bed, which means he will find you when you are back at Blue Lake,”
“Which form he finds her is what counts. As of right now, Svetlana says that he is having trouble finding her because of the fact that she is technically dead and her birth as a Primordial was never recorded,” I tell them.
“That’s true, and it will help for the time being,” Lorenzo says. “He is drawn to power, so as long as Rylee can refrain from using too much of her magic, it should stall a little longer. Rylee, how was old your pup in your vision,” “Ummm…A few months at most,” she replied.
“That’s more time than we originally had. My premonition saw him finding you before you gave birth, which is what we needed to prevent, and we have. As long as the two of you are together when the little one comes, you will come into your full powers,” Lorenzo stated.
