It had been a couple of months since Kerrigan's death. Since then his men and Knox's had become one. Helping each other to make a new home. Knox had even named Caleb the Alpha of Kerrigan's pack, because, in his words, "I can't deal with two fucking packs."

Crossing my arms I lean against the side of the barn. Watching as my new husband picked up a large piece of wood into his arms and held it up for another pack member to hammer nails into it up against the barn wall. Tilting my head, I bite my lip. My eyes roaming his fine arse body. I smile. So much had changed. I was no longer the scared rabbit, who kept her wolf side to herself. I was an alpha female. A mate. A wife. Soon to be a mother.

I hold my hands against my stomach. Caressing it lovingly with my thumbs. Soon they'd be cubs running around. It's amazing how different your life can become in a matter of months. In a few more months it would be a little more different.

Feeling my eyes on him he turns. Frowning a little. Smiling reassuringly, I walk over. Kissing his furry cheek before entwining my fingers with his. Checking over the progress. "How's it going?"

Sighing, he runs his free hand through his hair. "Ugh" he groans. "not too bad. Should be done soon. Maybe by tonight. The fuckwits didn't half do a good fucking job at trying to burn this place down."

"Well, they tried, and failed." I smile up at him. Kissing his bare arm. His eye's meet mine and he smiles. Turning to take me in his arms for a scorching kiss before laying his large, mucky hands on my extended belly. "How's my wife and son doing?"

Giggling, I cover his hands with mine. Watching as the little man inside my belly gives daddies hand a swift kick. "Active and making mummy tired with all his movement." Chuckling he leans his head down to kiss my neck. Making me shiver, then blush a little before wrapping his arms around me.

"I love you, my angel" he whispers against my ear. Smiling, I kiss his shoulder. "I love you too, alpha. Always."
