Chapter 0043
LOGAN
I held my breath without realizing it when Rose asked Liv Liv would be her mommy. Liv looked at her with so much love that my nervous heartbeat began to calm down.
“If it will make you happy, then yes, I would love to be your mommy,” Liv tells Rose in a soft voice but avoids my eyes.
Rose began to cry, not because she was sad but because she had gotten something she had missed the entire four years of her life. She snuggled into Liv’s arms, and Liv hugged her tightly.
“I have wanted a mommy for a long tinie. I prayed to the moon goddess to get me a mommy,” Rose cries.
“I am here, princess. And I won’t leave you. I promise.” Liv says with tears in her beautiful eyes.
‘We will be a family. And take care of each other.” I say before putting my arms around both of my girls.
When we had gotten Rose to calm down, we followed her to her kindergarten before returning to the packhouse. We walk to my office when we enter the house, where the pack’s four elders are waiting for us.
When we walked in, they were sitting in the chairs, and I quickly told them to stay seated. I looked at our elders, and I could see that something they were going to say would either piss me off or cause something like being confused. I sat in my chair, pulling Liv to sit in my lap.
“Okay, you insisted on this meeting now. So now explain, please.” I tell them.
“Alpha, do you remember what we told you about the blood moon?” Elder Evans asks me.
“I do. And yes, we mated and marked each other under the blood moon. But both our wolves won’t shift before the next full moon.” I say, and they nod.
“Yes, you will need strength from the moon. But that is not why we called you here.” Elder Pavel says.
“You, Luna, can not train for the coming time,” Pavel tells her.
“Elders, I might be the new Luna. But I smile, also trained to be s warrior. I do not say I want to be a warrior or do the patrols. But I will not stop training. Because I will fight next to Logan, and I will be able to protect our family and pack. Logan knows this.”
“Olivia is right. While I will always worry about her, I also know she is the one she–wolf I know can protect herself better than even most males I have seen. So yes, she is your Lunà, but I will not ask her to stop fighting.” I tell them.
“Alpha, Luna, what these two have failed to tell you when you were given further information about the blood moon, is that marking and mating with your mate on that. With a 99% certainty, it will lead to the she–wolf becoming pregnant. And heat is not required in this case.” Elder Evans’s wife tells us, glaring at her mate. 2
I am frozen. My mind is standing still. And I can feel that Liv is in the same state of shock as I am. She looks at me, and I see all the mixed emotions flashing through her. And her feelings are one big mess right now. While we both know completing the matebond will cause a heat within the first few months. But we both thought we had time to talk about this. I was planning to tell her if she didn’t feel ready. We could get the pack do to give the Injections that would prevent she would get pregnant just until she feels ready to carry and give birth to our pup because there is no way I want to risk what happened with Mia happening again. 1
“Are you fucking telling me that not only did you try to make me mate and mark someone because you want to

break the block on my lycan genes? But you fucking telling me that it will make her become pregnant. AND YOU DIDN’T TELL ME. NOT GIVING US A CHOICE TO MAKE SURE WE ARE BOTH READY FOR THIS.” I Explode in pure anger. Standing up and gently placed Liv in my chair.
“We didn’t think it would matter as we still do need an heir Elder Pavel says.
“GET OUT. NOW. And don’t ever hide any information from us again. And expect to have your titles taken away. I am DONE with this bullshit you keep pulling on me. OUT.” command, making them leave my office in a hurry.
I squat down on my knees in front of Olivia when they are gone.
“I am so sorry, baby. I never wanted the choice to be taken away from you. I am so, so sorry.” I whisper, grabbing her face and looking into her eyes. 1
“I love you. And I will not force you to go through with this pregnancy if you don’t feel ready for it. I will support vou no matter what.” I tell her, never letting my eyes leave hers. She nods her head.
OLIVIA
I am in shock. While I know that I would soon go into the head and I could get pregnant. I never expected it to happen this way.
Logan is furious and, in a fit of anger, tells them to leave. Then he goes to his knees and tells me the one thing that makes my decisions clear. While we all know he won’t force a pregnancy on me, I might not be ready for it. And he will support any decision I will take about keeping the child or end the pregnancy before it gets too advanced.
I know all this comes from his past experiences with Mia. He is afraid I will leave him. He didn’t say it out loud, but I could feel all his emotions right now. I love Logan, and I love Rose. And I will love this child just as much. I want him and all our kids. I want our little family.
I hold onto his face and look into his eyes, and then I kiss him.
“Logan. I love you, and I will love this child just as much as I love Rose. I will not leave you, Logan. Never. Granted, I didn’t expect this right this second. But we can do this together.” I tell him softly, almost whispering. “Are you sure you want this?” He asks me. Looking into my eyes. I look back and smile.
“Yes, Handsome. I want this because it is with you. This is ours.
“You have no idea what this means to me, baby. I promise you, even after giving birth. I will not stop you from training. I will always support you.” He tells me.
I pull him up, place him in his chair, and sit down on his lap. I take his hands and put them on my tummy. “Our pup might be in here right now,” I tell him, and we lock eyes before we begin kissing each other.
