《Second Chance》Chapter 16: The Trial
Advertisement
We pulled up to an old castle-like structure. Paxton's brother waited for us inside and he escorted us to the trial room.
Paxton and I sat in thrones next to Clarence and his mate. He was not happy that one of his family members was almost attacked. Paxton was itching to claw at the girl as she walked in with guards on either side of her.
"Everyone please be seated." We all sat down and she was shoved up to the stand.
"Shelby Matilda James, you are being charged with assaulting a Luna, risking the life of unborn children of the Alpha, trying to challenge an already mated Luna, making false claims as the mate of Alpha Paxton, and disrespecting the Alpha male and female. What do you plead?"
"Not Guilty!" She growls out. I rolled my eyes. I had really wanted to go home sooner.
Paxton growled and I grabbed his hand.
"Luna Coralina-"
"She's not LUNA! They haven't even had the ceremony yet! I'm LUNA!" she barked and guard handcuffed her to the chair.
"SILENCE!" Clarence barks out. His own mate also grabbing his hand to calm him down. "Continue Elder Manson."
The old man nodded. "Luna Coralina, if you would please come up and put your hand on the vision stone. This will allow us to see what happened from your point of view."
I nodded and went up and as soon as my skin touched the surface of the stone, images appeared on the wall. It showed everything up until I blacked out.
"Thank you. So we have evidence for everything except the actual assault. Alpha Paxton, did you see the assault?"
"Yes."
They directed him to the stone and I watched in horror as my eyes shut and she continued to bash my body into the wall while Paxton ripped her off of me and ordered the guards to get her.

"Well, that settles it. Shelby Matilda James is now under arrest. You will be banished from the pack, marked as a rouge and will spend life in prison." She screamed and kicked as the guards came and took her away.
I breathed in as they took her away. Paxton picked me up from my chair and carried me to a small room nearby. There was a TV above a fireplace along with a comfy couch. I relaxed in his arms as he sat down and placed me on his lap, with me straddling him.
"I wish I could have just killed her." He says. I chuckle.
I leaned down and kissed his cheek. "I love you."
He purred and when I looked into his eyes I knew his wolf was very happy. I laughed and kissed his lips and he kissed me back. "I love you too, mo ghaol."
Then there was a knocking at the door.
"Uncle Paxy!" I looked over and saw a small girl running towards us. I awed and got off his lap, which made him growl. I rolled my eyes in response as the little girl made her way towards us.
"Mila. Where is your nanny?" Paxton asked sternly.
"Mommy called her a whore and made Daddy fire her." My eyes widened.
"Clarence and Liliana can't keep a nanny for the life of them," Paxton said rolling his eyes.
"Are you my auntie?!" She asked me looking up in hope.
"Yes," I laughed out as she hugged me.
"I heard hearts! Am I going to have cousins!!?"
Paxton nodded and told her yes. She got so excited. "I'm going to tell mommy!!"
She ran off and we both laughed. I put a hand over my stomach and rubbed it as Paxton kissed my cheek and picked me up again to take me to the car.

We got in and instructed the driver to take us home. On the ride, their Paxton kept fidgeting and I knew he wanted to let his wolf out. Me being pregnant won't shift until the pups are ready to pop.
I laughed and squeezed his hand and he looked at me and whined. His eyes were very dark meaning his wolf took over. I leaned over and kissed his nose, cheeks, and forehead.
"You missed a spot mo ghaol." He said and leaned in claiming my lips. I moaned into the kiss and he reached his hand over and grabbed me and pulled me on his lap.
The car then decided to slow down and the driver told us we had arrived. We got out and the first thing Paxton did was shift into his wolf form and roll around in the grass.
I laughed and carefully climbed the steps to the house and sat on a rocking chair outside and watched him mess around.
His wolf came up to me and laid its face on my lap and nuzzled my stomach. He purred when it heard the heartbeats of our children.
He shifted back to regular form and carried me to the bedroom. "I will be right back." I nodded and he left and five minutes later came back with ice cream. I squealed delightedly since I've been craving it and it was the only thing other than crackers and ginger ale that I could hold down.
I cuddled up next to him and ate my ice cream. He turned on Mean Girls and spooned me. I was so happy and this happy feeling was going nowhere.
