It was a peaceful morning. One of those rare moments when everything felt calm. Like the world outside hadn’t caught fire. I chuckled as 1 hummed a song and covered my pups with a blanket. They both were asleep, their tiny bodies curled up in their bassinets.
My man had a voracious diet for sex. Just last night, he asked me to put a gag on his mouth so that he didn’t grunt as he came inside me. “I feel like we should have more babies,” he whispered as he slipped beside me and pulled me over his
chest.
“No…” I hummed, and closed my eyes, drifting off to sleep almost immediately.
I looked at Lucien who was also sleeping, snoring a little, after having three rounds of sex last night. When I went to place a kiss on his forehead, he stirred awake. He grabbed me by my waist and pulled me over him. The sheet barely covered his groin where his erection was again bulging.
“Mr. Vaslof, no more sex!” I playfully smacked him.
“Kill joy!” he grunted and crashed his mouth on mine.
I moaned at his assault. Had he not broken the kiss, I would have given up and probably rode him all over again. This wolf was so charming and persuasive when it came to sex.
But there was something wrong. I could sense it through our bond. “Lucien?” I said, brushing his hair from his forehead. “What happened, baby?”
He stared into my eyes and a second later, turned his head away. “Nothing…”
I cupped his cheeks and made him look my way. “Tell me.”
His eyes met mine, a hint of irritation flashing in his gaze. “Some Alphas have grouped together and they are accusing me of using forbidden magic to break the curse.”
“What the hell!” I was shocked. “Which Alphas?”
“I don’t know…” he said. “But nothing to worry about. I have the situation under control.”
I got up and glared at him. “I’m your wife, not a child. So don’t give me that, Lucien.”
He sighed. “I contacted the High Council and they said that they knew about breaking the curse. At least I am covered there just in case these alphas decide to go there.”
“Well, this is just fantastic,” I muttered under my breath. “Who the hell are these Alphas? Do they think that you have a magic wand tucked under pillow? Dark forbidden magic? Really?”
He grunted in annoyance, his hand running through his hair. “I’ve sent my spies to find out who they are. But that’s not all. My warriors detected the presence of enemy wolves in the east border. So I am guessing that whoever these alphas are, they are already on the move.”
“Goddess!” I rasped.
“I feel I will go insane chasing ghosts all the time,” he muttered, running a hand down his face. “I’m getting tired of the constant issues about my family. Every fucking time I think things are settling down, something like this happens. I will just put an end to this nonsense once and for all, the moment I come to know about the rebel alphas!”
My heart sank at the sadness that rippled off him. I lowered my face and kissed his lips. “Well, then. How about a little
distraction?”

His expressions softened. “A distraction, huh? What did you have in mind?”

Before I could answer, there was a loud cry from one of the bassinets. Bradley had woken up. He reached out his tiny hands, demanding his lunch. I sighed and went to pick him up. “That’s all I have become. Breakfast, lunch and dinner!”
As I brought him back and gave him my breast, Lucien chuckled. “I can also become your breakfast, lunch and dinner.”
I narrowed my eyes on him. “Shut up!”
He came closer to me and said, “Do you know the benefits of eating your partner’s cum?”
My eyes widened. “Lucien!”
He laughed. “There are many. One, it is loaded with protein, two-”
I smacked him right across his chest. “Goddess, you are so shameless!”
His laughter roared in the room. But he sat behind me, his arms curling around my waist as he watched me feeding Bradley with his chin resting on my shoulder. “You look beautiful,” he whispered as he fondled my other breast.
“I think I should wean them now,” I said.
“What? No!” he growled in protest. “My pups will have your milk until they turn one, and then more if they want it.”
“You’re mad.” I deadpanned.
“Nope! I’m in love.”
“I’m planning to move them to their nurseries that you had so meticulously created for them.”
He raised an eyebrow. “They are fine right where they are, Auren. Why would we move them?”
“Because they are six months old, Lucien. It’s time we give them their space. They need to start developing their own routines.”
He shook his head. “No, I am in no rush to part with my pups.”
“Lucien, they are not fragile. You have to-”
He cut me off by squeezing my breast. Some milk oozed out. “Ah!”
He collected the milk on his fingers and put it in his mouth. “They aren’t going anywhere. Yes, at some point they’ll have their own room, but not now.”
“You’re a big softie!” I rolled my eyes. “You would have them sleep in our bed until they are ten if I let you.”
He chuckled. Before he could reply, there was a knock at the door.
“I guess Vivi is here with breakfast,” I sighed.
After Lucien left, I decided to finally go and see the gypsy wolves. I had been procrastinating. I wanted to take Tamara, but she was cranky. So I took Brad with me. Lucien knew about my travel plans. When I walked to the car, I saw a bunch of his warriors in two cars to follow us.
When we reached the gathering spot outside the pack, I saw that a large number of our pack members were there. Laughter, loud brawls, grunts and cheers echoed across the field. I couldn’t help but smile as I stepped into the place, clutching Bradley in my arms. Immediately, the warriors surrounded us. They glared at anyone who tried to come to me.
I must have walked only a few meters, when a group of young pups rushed over, their face full of excitement. Brad’s eyes

widened as he saw them. I allowed them to come near us. They cooed and made faces to get his attention. In response, Bradley giggled, reaching out for one and grabbing his hair. The gypsy children laughed, fascinated by us. From the periphery of my vision, I saw their leader, who immediately bowed.
It was an afternoon well–spent and I wished I had got Tamara, but maybe another time. The gypsy wolves were going to leave in two days.
When we arrived home, everything was usual. However, when Lucien didn’t return at 10PM, I became worried. I called him but he didn’t pick up his phone. So I called Tarian. “Where is he?” I asked.
“Luna, stay alert. We found five enemy wolves closing in. He has gone to tackle them.”
