The Next day.

Elena POV

The relief I felt upon getting home was immense today. The women were all waiting out front of the house when I re- turned from the registry after filling out the paperwork last night for each pack member. Sondra is sitting in her rocking chair, as I walk up the steps. “Nope,” she pointed back to the women waiting. She refused to let me enter the house until I let them submit to me, and I had fed them my blood.

They wanted to do it last night when I returned home, but I only cared about getting home to the boys. When I was done, I was about to put the goblet down on the table that was set up when I turned to find my mother. She grabs my hands in hers, and Luke comes to stand beside her.

“But dad, he is your mate-”

“He stopped being my mate the day he kicked you out of the house. Mates don’t hurt mates. And he hurt me when he took you from me. Never again. For everything I have done in the past, know it was for you kids. Even when I chose wrong, it was all for you. Just like this is. You deserve this, Elena. You are not just an Alpha by blood, but by your persistence to not give up when everything around you is trying to break you.” My mother lets go of my hands and drops to her knees along- side Luke.
