The next morning I woke refreshed and in a great mood for some reason. I slipped out of bed around 7:30am and quickly showered before making my way to the kitchen and making breakfast. Just as I set the table everyone started creeping down the stairs sleepily and sat down. I poured everyone coffee and juice and made everyone's plates before sitting down myself. I dictated a memo to my phone to buy a larger coffee maker and stove which made everyone laugh. I linked the guards to alert the rogues that they had an hour left and they responded with 'Yes Luna'.
On the way to the dungeons an hour later I had Emmett and Shawna with us and asked Shawna if she sung and she said yes. I asked if she knew the song "Feel Invincible" by Skillet and she did so I asked her to jump in with the female part and any overlapping parts and she said she knew exactly where I was talking about. Emmett decided to be the backup singer. We began singing with Emmett turning on the music on his phone that he connected to a Bluetooth speaker he had in his bag he carried with him which was a good one that put out some good loud sound. We didn't end the song until we were stepping in front of Niko and the rogues cell. Niko looked like shit and was obviously subjected to the same treatment he gave me when he held me prisoner. I looked to the rogues who looked nervous at my devious smirk and I said "Thank you gentleman, I hope you enjoyed your evening." The biggest one said "Absolutely."
I opened the cell door, stepped in and closed it behind me which annoyed the others but I glared at them and said "Come in and I won't ever forgive you." They stayed there. The rogues began moving toward me and I turned my wicked smile onto them and said "I suggest you move away now before I rip your balls off and feed them to you." They cupped their balls and backed away slowly. Niko was cowering in the corner broken and bloody, a shell of his former self. I smiled sadistically at him and said "Do I kill you slowly or quickly? I don't have much time but I DO want to torment you as much as you did me and I so wish you I could give you my pain of loss over my child, mother and best friends but I can't." I ripped his ears off and tossed them at the rogues who backed away further. I said "You're no longer a man, you've experienced what you did to me and I will do one last painful thing before I allow my soon to be husband to have the final vengeance here since you murdered our son and best friends. I re-broke every bone and stepped out, kissed Aden on the cheek and said, do what you want now baby, I have my revenge in many ways as did everyone else in the family. You deserve yours too." He smiled at me and kissed my forehead before stepping in and closing himself in. I won't even mention all that he did but even I felt sorry for the creep by the time Aden finally drown Niko in the toilet in the cell.
I caught all of my Luna duties up and had my meeting with Jacob about the new house for the Popes. Once all business was settled I needed to sit down and have a conversation with the adults first. I let them know that my record label wants to start production on the new album immediately and wants me to return to L.A. for a few weeks to get the album recorded and then I'll be home for about a month before I have to promote the album and then the tour. I explained how I needed to make this album in particular a success because it means so much to me. They understood although they all said they would miss me. Next was time to tell the children and they all took it alright except little Jessie who was inconsolable. I asked if he wanted to come with me and he said yes. I said "If you want to come with me you have to do 3 things. Convince Ms Shawna to come. In public while we are away from home call Shawna mommy instead of me if anyone asks you anything and 3 not tell ANYONE who mommy is or daddy or any of your brothers and sisters. Nobody can know about werewolves or our family." He said "Ok mommy, I'll ask Ms Shawna to come with us and pretend to be my mommy right now!"
About 10 minutes later Shawna was being dragged into the house by Jessie with Emmett following looking utterly confused. Jessie's little face is exasperated as he huffs and says to me "Mommy, Shawna couldn't understand me so I brought her to you." We all chuckled before I explained the situation to Shawna and Emmett. Jane said she would handle matters on this end if they both wanted to go to help me with Jessie and keeping my business and Luna duties in order. They both agreed to come and plans were being made. Samantha took Jessie upstairs and began packing some bags while Shawna and Emmett left to get ready as well. We would be leaving first thing in the morning and I even showed Jessie my mask and helmet so he understood I would be wearing it most of the time once we left the house tomorrow. He thought it was cool which made me laugh at his when he said that.
The next morning brought tearful goodbyes especially the children and I followed by Aden and I. Once we said our goodbyes I put my mask on and got in the car with Emmett, Shawna and Jessie. We got to the airport and boarded my private jet in no time. In L.A. as soon as my plane touched down the paparazzi knew I was there and that I had a new album in the works. People had questions after my time away and seeing me with these 2 new adults and a small child. I had my helmet on now and as the others got in the car, I spoke to some reporters and explained that Emmett and Shawna were my personal assistants and Jessie was Shawna's son who I didn't want to separate from her just so she could do her job. They all seemed to buy that explanation but I felt a tinge of pain in my heart for lying about my little boy belonging to somebody else. When I got in the car I took my helmet back off and lifted the mask half way over my mouth, grabbed Jessie and hugged him and kissed his chubby cheeks while apologizing for having to tell everyone he wasn't mine. Luckily the privacy patrician was up in the limo when Jessie said "It's ok mommy, you told me why."
The next month in L.A. was full of recording studio sessions and when the album was recorded; we visited home and then back out to promote the album and finally the tour. I missed the crowd at the concerts and performing at the awards various ceremonies. Emmett, Shawna and Jessie really enjoyed themselves but by the time if finally wound down, they were all exhausted and I didn't blame them. I always set a grueling pace on the tours and this time was no different. We would go from concert to concert a night or two apart. Barely long enough to get the set and backup dancers/singers from one location to the next. Luckily knowing me, the crews had 2 sets of the props etc so they didn't have to rush AS fast as last time. I made a ton of money for my record label I started and a ton of money for me personally from the tour. I donated much to orphanages around the world and childrens hospitals which somehow got out and made headlines of course.
Finally we snuck our way past the reporters and made our way home. We arrived to the entire pack celebrating our return and when the car stopped, I noticed everyone was dressed up, the men in suits and ties and the women in gowns. I looked at Shawna and Emmett and I knew Emmett was in a suit and Shawna was also in a gown so I knew something was up. Even Jessie had a smirk on his little face as he was raced out of the car by Shawna and Emmett. I stepped out and Samantha and Jane grabbed my arms and rushed me into the house and to my bedroom. When we got there I found a white tux waiting for me with a teal vest and bowtie. Before I could ask questions I was ushered into the bathroom to shower and given my underclothes and my tux to dress in after I finished. I showered and dressed and again before I could speak, Jane shoved teal dress socks…didn't know they made those…and white dress shoes into my hands and said "Put them on." I did and Samantha was doing my hair at the same time. When they finished, they put me in front of a mirror and I had to admit, I looked good in this outfit.
Once again before I could ask questions I was told to brush my teeth and then ushered out of the house quickly. I said "Moms, I would like to go see my children now please. It's been too long and I'm sure they need to see me as much as I do them." Samantha smiled at me and said "Don't worry; we're taking you to them." It suddenly dawned on me what was happening and I felt like an idiot for not realizing it until now…this was apparently my wedding day. Suddenly I started sweating profusely and stopped dead in my tracks. We had a short conversation before the ladies pulled me to the gardens behind the pack house and there at the end of an isle stood all my children and my handsome fiancé.
The wedding was beautiful and of course I was a mess, crying through his vows and since I didn't have any, I read the standard ones back with the elder who was performing the ceremony but felt bad about it. After the wedding I got to spend time with the children and then Aden lifted me up and carried me to OUR bedroom. The children and his parents were going to stay with the Popes next door. It was a fantastic day and an incredible night.
About a month later I had been experiencing the same symptoms as before and found out I was indeed pregnant again. Everyone was ecstatic when the doctor said the baby was growing so fast that it was definitely an alpha boy. When the day finally came, the baby was born as Samuel Alexander McGowan. He looked like Aden aside from my eyes and hair. Over the next 5 years we had 4 more children, 1 boy and 3 girls, Benjamin, April, May and June. I know, corny but I thought it was cute.
My career slowed down a bit over the years but I was ok with that because I had a family to raise and just found out yesterday that Aden did it to me again…I'm pregnant. I walked up to him and hit him square in the windpipe and said "You son of a bitch you said you used a condom and now I'm pregnant…AGAIN!" He choked and smiled guiltily and said "Sorry babe." I said "I so hate you right now because I JUST got back in shape completely and now here we go again and so help me god if this is twins I will castrate you." It was twins and Aden disappeared for a few days as I patrolled with a rusty knife visible to all. Most laughed but Aden was well hidden waiting for me to calm down. Eventually the twins were born named Will and Bill.
Unfortunately there was no getting fixed in the werewolf community for the receiving wolf to stop us from getting pregnant but I cut Aden off after that and just bought him a flesh jack. The years were good to us all and the pack lived in peace and prosperity for years to come.
Samuel was the next alpha when Aden was prepared to turn over the title and Aden was proud but sad to see the day come. I was a sobbing mess knowing my babies were all growing up too fast but his mate was a beautiful sweet girl named Jenna. Aden traveled with me after the children all took over the pack and I made albums between vacations we took all alone. Life was good and I couldn't be happier.
The End
