Chapter Ninety–Nine
Ryley
After leaving Blake and Luca in my office, I headed upstairs to get a room ready for Walter. I also needed to get some laundry done, make dessert, and find an outfit for dinner this evening. I was feeling anxious about sitting with everyone. I was now a member of the pack, not just a visitor.
“And future luna,” Lily chimed in. I let out a groan as I entered our
apartment.
“Maybe, Lily, I don’t know. I want to be with Blake but do I want all the responsibilities that come with being with an alpha?” I sighed, as I walked from room to room collecting laundry.
“We are a Luna by birth. I chose Blake and his wolf as our mates. Not just because we could be forced to be with Dorian or another alpha, but because I love him. I love him for us. He takes care of us and our pup. And no other alpha would do that for us, I assure you.” She said.
“I don’t know if I’m ready for that just yet. What if Blake wants more kids? And I don’t think I want to live in the pack house. There is just so much for us to discuss before we can mark each other.” I told her.
“And what if Blake does want to have a child with us?” She asked and I sighed.
“I don’t know. I never thought I would have a chance at a mate again. So I never gave in much thought.” I said as I started the washing machine.

“It’s not such a bad thing, Ryley. A child to bring together two families.”
“But what if he doesn’t want any more kids and I’m overthinking this? Or if in a few years, I want to have another child but he doesn’t.” I exclaimed. My chest became tight, making it hard for me to breathe.
“Breathe, nothing has been decided. You’re overreacting for nothing,” she scolded me.
“Or maybe I’m under–reacting,” I retorted.
“Ryley,” she sighed.
“Lily, I need to make sure that Blake and I are on the same page before I commit to this relationship forever. I was ready to commit to Dorian
and look how well that turned out.” I reminded her.
My phone rang in my pocket, pulling me from my argument with my wolf. I gave her a pack and now she wants a mate. I don’t blame her but I need to take this slow. I was about to rush into things with Dorian without knowing he was my mate, and he fucked me over, even knowing I was his mate.
“isa?” I answered the phone. Her name flashed on the screen before I
vered.
yley, sorry I missed your call. Are you able to chat now?” She asked.
“Blake isn’t here. But I can talk. Is everything okay?” I questioned.
“I’m sorry about my father yesterday. Dorian has been on a rampage since you left. He’s convinced the reason you didn’t have your wolf is because you were in heat. You didn’t mention Blake marking you,” she said.

“We haven’t yet. But I think we should discuss what would happen if your mate went to the council demanding me back,” I sighed.
“I’m hoping if that does happen, you will let Blake mark you. I don’t know if he will or not, Ryley. He’s hurt that you kept his son from him and he’s angry with his father for what he did. And then Blake pulled his warriors and he’s worried about the pack.” She confessed.
- me.
“We’ll have to get together soon. But keep me updated and I’ll do the same. And if you need anything, let me know.” I told her. After we said our goodbyes, I flopped back on the bed.
