The moment our mate had dozed off, I moved to lock eyes with my brother. "We did it" I whisper, so as not to wake her. "We finally found our mate.!

"Agreed" whispers Eros, a small smile gracing his lips as he holds our mate, her facial expression soft as she sleeps. "Now no one can take her from us, not even that pup, Alpha Jacob."

At the mention of Jacob, I can't help but feel Zeus growl. 'Easy buddy' I warn, not wanting him to wake our mate. 'He hurt mate, he should be punished' growls Zeus, angrily. And he shall, in due time, but let's not start a war if we can help it' I tell him, which earns me a snort. 'Besides, we should focus on finding other relatives for our mate as well as figure out why someone would attack a whole pack in cold blood'. "Maybe, Maybe the Lycan King would know' replies Zeus with a thought. "Maybe, but father would need to reach out to him' I say as a matter of fact, which earns me a sigh. 'Fine'

"Which

I suddenly feel eyes causing me to focus back on Eros who had been watching. "What's so funny?" asks Eros as he watches me. "Just something Zeus said to me" I tell him, before turning serious once more.

Chuck reminds t we need to see if our mate has any other relatives other than those who took her for granted. There's gotta be more to this than we know. We should also look into why someone would attack her pack in cold blood, determine if it was for power or something more." L say to him, suddenly serious. "I was just thinking the same thing... Maybe father could help us, maybe reach out to the King' remarks Eros, suddenly serious just as I was.

"Sleep, we can finish this discussion later" I tell him, my own body needing sleep as well and since dinner wouldn't be till later, a nap was a perfect way to pass the time. Nodding, Eros moves to follow our mate into dreamland as do I. Sleep easily takes over and allows us to sleep

Athena as she stirs. "Almost 6pm, come, we should shower before heading down for dinner. Our parents are hosting a welcome dinner to welcome the new Luna" 1 say to her, smiling as I exit the closet with clothes for me and our mate. "Eh?" blinks Athena spotting the dress I now held within my arm. "Where did that dress come from?" chuckling, I look at her in amusement.

Blushing, Athena cheeks flush as Eros continues to carry her, sitting her down on the sink before moving to turn on the shower. The shower being big enough to hold five or more people, "Cute" I say with a chuckle loving the way her face turned red with each compliment. "-1" stutters Athena just as I move to approach her, caging her with my body as I move to step between her legs, my hands resting against her hips as I stand before her. "Come let us shower" is all I tell her before picking her up the waist causing her to squeak as she moves to wrap her legs around I my waist, her arms moving to circle my neck as she clings to me. At the casual embrace, I can't mated it wouldn't be long until lp but smile as Zeus purrs. 'I can't wait till mate is pregnant with our
