The Last Royal Luna

Mel decided to tell Alistair alone after we get back on the road. She gave me the go ahead to tell the guys via mind link at the same time. She knew they would be hounding me as soon as she was out of hear shot. We both laughed at that and hugged again. I could feel how nervous she was so I pushed extra love and excitement into my hug hoping it would soak into her.

“What was that?” She stood back.

“What do you mean?” I had no idea what she was talking about.

“I felt this power push into me making my nerves go away. It was like a love filled hug.” She gasped. “Is that another power? Didn’t you learn to soak up power from the earth when we were fighting the witches?”

I looked at my hands and back up at her with a smile. “Who the hell knows but I am down with this. I can fuel everyone up and keep myself at tip top condition when we fight.”

“Hell ya. Now lets go tell the guys about my bun in the oven and maybe text about who your last mate might be.” She joked as we walked toward the door.

“How do you think Natalie and Parker are doing? I hate that we can’t speak to anyone. My mother is probably going nuts but at least she how the girls to keep her busy.”

“I think they are doing great or someone would of reached out. I can feel my mothers magic in my heart so I know she is doing ok. She is going to crap herself when she finds out she is going to be a grandma.” She stopped at the door and looked at me. “Ready?”

“Ready.” We pushed the door opened and walked over to the guys.

Alistair stood up straight and looked about ready to jump out of his skin. My guys stopped talking and waited for us to talk. I looked at Mel and she was wringing her hands. I looked at Alistair and gave him a small smile hoping he would speak first.

“So, are we having a pup?” He stepped closer to Mel but kept his hands to himself.

“Do you mind if we discuss it in private? I would love to get on the road before we talk about it.” She whispered. It was like she thought that he would be upset.

“It sounds good to me. We already have everything ready.” He grabbed her hand to help her into the vehicle and nodded bye at us. He was not waiting for that answer.

“Wait. I got you a little something while we were inside. Don’t open the bag until after you tell him the news.” I gave her a look telling her I knew she would try to open it early.

“Deal. Thanks, bestie.” She took my paper bag from me and got in the vehicle.

I looked at the guys and checked them each out taking my time. Asher’s fake cough made me break my gaze and look at him.

“Ryder, are you checking us out?” He smirked and the guys joined him.

“Maybe…Or maybe I was deciding who was going to ride shot gun with me.” I grabbed the keys from his pocket and ran to the driver’s seat. I made sure to lock the door behind me so they couldn’t get any funny ideas.

“You are not driving, young lady!” Asher said sternly as he tried to open the drivers door. His face got red when he realized I had locked it. I stuck my tongue out at him.

“Sorry, DAD. I need practice sometime.” I snickered. He growled before trying the door again.

“Ryder! Open this door right now. I am not dealing with another speedy ticket!” Asher was getting even more angry, and it wasn’t a bad look on him.

I just revved the engine and laughed. Andrew, Blake, and Knox ran forward to open the doors. They jumped in just in time for me to take off grinning like a girl who just escaped the nut house. Blake climbed into the front seat before putting his seat belt on. He made a big show of it and laughed when the guys did the same in the back seat.

“Relax. I have only been in three wrecks, and one wasn’t even my fault!” I pouted.

“Uh huh.” Knox joked. “How bout you distract us with telling us if Melissa is pregnant or not. We need to know if we are going to be uncles or not.”

“Oh.. I mean I guess I could tell you guys the answer but I think I will link all of us.” They nodded in agreement.

‘I miss you guys. It is hard being away from you all as a unit after eleven days together.’ I confessed to my mates.

‘Next stop we will trade so that Kane, Asher, and I get some time with you. I miss your lips on mine.’ Edgar confessed sweetly.

‘’Yea, Yea. We all love each other and would prefer to stay together all the time. But now is the time to know what the rest results were, gosh dang it.’ Blake stated. I think he is going to be the one who spoils our kids the most.

‘Geez, Blake. Calm down.’ Kane replied with a tinge of anger.

‘Ok I have kept you waiting long enough. Melissa is PREGNANT!’ And the cheers started in the link. I could feel their happiness and excitement.

I could feel Blue feel a tad bit sad that we weren’t with a pup. I knew how she felt and I just had to remind both of us that once this war was over we would have several pups. ‘One day soon, Blue. It will be us and their excitement will be for us.’
