Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

“Come on… don’t kid me,” I said, rolling my eyes at Joclyn. Turning to Dane, I raised a questioning brow. “She’s joking, right?”

Dane held my gaze, his expression shifting subtly. Then, a one–sided smirk curved his lips. “Wrong,” he said, grabbing the back of my neck and pulling me into a deep, fiery kiss.

“Gross!” the kids groaned, covering their faces in exaggerated disgust.

I stared at Dane, wide–eyed, as he kissed me with a passion that made my chest tighten. My mind raced at the possibility of what he was implying. I pushed gently against his chest, swallowing hard.

“Dane… am I…?” I started, my voice barely a whisper.

“Yes!” he exclaimed, grinning as he took my hand and kissed it. “You’re pregnant, Aurora.”

My hands flew to my face, my eyes lighting up with joy. “Oh… thank the Moon Goddess!”

I turned to Joclyn, who beamed with delight. “Congratulations, Luna,” she said warmly.

I nodded at her, my heart swelling, and then shifted my gaze to Trajan, who quickly stepped to Joclyn’s side.

“Wow… I’m so happy for you, Aurora,” Trajan said, his excitement palpable. He glanced at Joclyn, and they exchanged a knowing smile. “Come here,” he added, opening his arms.

Without hesitation, Joclyn stepped into his embrace. Trajan’s arms wrapped protectively around her waist, but as if jolted back to reality, they both sprang apart, avoiding eye contact with the rest of us.

Piper and Warrick, smiling sweetly, hugged each other, and even Sera and Tristan followed suit, wrapping their arms around one another.

I giggled at the scene, warmth filling my chest. The love and care radiating from everyone was overwhelming, and I felt truly blessed.

Dane wrapped his arms around me from behind, pulling me close. As I looked over his shoulder, my eyes met Evander’s. He frowned, crossing his arms dramatically.

“Well, since I don’t have anyone to hug, I guess I’ll just hug myself,” he muttered, wrapping his arms around himself in mock loneliness.
