The Stained Omega by Elle T Jefferson

For the first time in a long time I actually feel safe within the Pack, I can’t remember the last time I took Thomas to the park or laid around while Aurora jumped all over Winter. Today I woke up in a good mood so I put coats on Thomas, Aurora and Huston and packed them all along to the park. We think Hysion is about five years old but he’s rather tall so Thoma s’s clothes have been fitting him for now. Watching them play they look like any other group of siblings. Hysion has this way of making sure Aurora is never left out of their games and since we brought him home Thomas seems to have forgotten all about Anders. He and Hysion are joined at the hip, I actually dread the day I have to break them apart.

“What’s this? A Luna out in the wild with us peasants?” I turn on the bench and see a rather large Eliza waddling across the grass with Lizzie running ahead of her. Lizzie is so excited to see her friends she doesn’t even acknowledge me as she runs to join them on the climbing frame.

“You look better and bigger.” I tell her as she sits next to me.

“I swear I get bigger everyday.” Eliza huffs as she pats her now very round stomach.

“How long until the little lady joins us?” I reach my hand over and feel for the baby kicking, apparently today is not my lucky day because no pup kicks for me.

“Just under four months if she comes in time, I swear I feel fifty years pregnant.” I smile at her, she might be complaining but she has a

“You’re loving every second.” I tell her while turning to eye the pups.
