The Council Chapter 5: Mason

Mason

That night, Jara and I compare notes. I like their idea of creating a support group for she-wolves. I tell her to put a petition together so that the Alphas can’t block them from including the she-wolves in their meetings. Maybe that support will be what the she-wolves need to survive, to thrive. I hope so. We desperately need more she-wolves, and I want to make a better life for our daughters. Which reminds me…..

“So, what did you think about Mignon being pregnant? And with a little girl, no less.” I ask, coming to stand behind Jara as she takes out her earrings.

She looks at me in the mirror. “I’m hoping that I’m already carrying our pup. I’d love a girl, but I’d be happy with a healthy baby, boy or girl.”

“I agree.” I say, wrapping my arms around her waist and kissing her neck.

“Do we know how long we have to wait before we know if you’re pregnant?”

“I have to be at least two weeks along, I think. Being that our gestation is only five months, give or take, we should know pretty quickly after I get pregnant.”

“So, at least another week? Perhaps we should keep trying in the interim, make sure that if it hasn’t happened, that it does soon.” I say, smiling at her in the mirror.

“Alpha, are you trying to get me into bed?” She purrs at me, watching me with dark eyes in the mirror.

“Yes, my Luna, I definitely am.”

My perfect mate took my knot, twice. ‘Just to be sure’, she had said in her sultry voice, and I was happy to oblige.

The next morning, we get ready to head to the Alpha meeting. “They aren’t going to give us a problem, are they Mason?”

I shrug. I don’t care if they don’t want my mate there. She’s an Alpha and my Luna. I want her there and I won’t allow them to dismiss her. Although, I’m pretty sure my mate won’t allow herself to be dismissed.

As we walk into the meeting room I see the Elders, all sitting at the head table look up and scowl at my mate’s presence. I ignore them, getting her seated at an empty table and moving to get us coffee. When Elder Jason walks up next to me to get a coffee refill, I hand him the petition and let him know Jara should have another one for him tomorrow.

“I’ll take care of it.” He says quietly before we step away and I finish making our coffees.

I give Jara her coffee just as Seth and Hana walk in. They sit with us, and Seth goes to get coffee for the two of them.

When they sit, I lean in toward Seth. “I gave it to him.”
