Chapter 126 - Given to the Lycan King

(Two years later)

"Mama," Hearing his small cries. Turning around as he came shuffling into the room dragging his small blue blanket, Rubbing his eye with the hand that wasnt holding the blanket,

"Awe, my baby," I reach down, scooping him up and holding him to me, His little head lying against my chest,

He looked so much like his father and was a cuddler like him, too,

Kissing his hair, I walked over and sat on the couch, "You wake up from your nap, baby,"

"Dada," he lifts his head, looking around, His eye searching for him. He was his Dad's mini-me. He followed Lincoln everywhere, And Lincoln was so wonderful with him, Never did he hesitate to take him with. Even when he was working in his office, he would take him,

Even Lincoln's dad was all about this boy. He would spend hours with him. It turned into tug a war between Hazel and Winston, Each wanting the extra time with their grandbaby,

"Hes working, baby, but Mama is here. Let's get you changed and then some lunch,"

His bottom lip trembled. As I stood from the couch, heading for his room,

"Dont cry. Daddy will be back soon," I cooed at him, but little tears filled his eyes. He definitely was a Daddies boy,

"Lincoln," I called through the link,

"Little one, you alright, little man, okay?"

Smiling at his words,

"Yes, we are fine. Some little boy woke up, and someone wasnt there,"

Laying him on the floor after I grabbed his things to change him around,

"Shit, Im sorry, he was out when I left. Let me finish, and I'll be there,"

"Take your time. Im getting him lunch. I'll take him over to the daycare to play with the other kids,"

"Are you sure? I can come back now. I dont care. You two come first."

This is why I love him. He always puts us first. He will drop whatever he is working on if we need him,

"No, finish what you are working on. I need to meet with Mia and start the list for the Alphas Ball,"

"Alright, Little one, love you,"

"Love you too,"

Cutting the link, I focus back on the little boy who has long forgotten about his Dad and is now running around his room butt-ass naked,

"Get your naked little butt back here," I chase after him as he giggles, running in a circle,

"Gotcha!" I scoop him up, blowing raspberries on his belly, making him laugh and wiggle,

"Come crazy, child, let's get dressed. You want to go play with Garret?"

At the sound of his name, he was bouncing and clapping,

"Arret?" I chuckled at how he said his name. He couldn't get the G sound of his name, so it came out Arret,

Garret was Mia and Rivers's little boy. Mia ended up pregnant the night River marked her, Making Garret a month younger,

"Yeah, buddy, Arret,"

Upon hearing that he was helping me pull his clothes on, "Slow down baby," I laughed as he took off running out of the room,

"Hey, little man, you need to eat lunch first,"

He stopped at the door,

"No, I want Arret,"

Hands-on my hips, I stare down at my son, who is giving me one of his father looks, Head tipped down as he looks up with his eyes,

"After lunch,"

He stomps his little foot, "No," He crosses his arms, sticking his bottom lip out,

If I weren't trying to stare down my child, I would have laughed, but I cant show weakness now, Not with this little boy,

"Damin Michal Declan, You either eat lunch or you dont get to go play with Garret,"

"Mama, pwease, Arret," he says as little tears build in his eyes. He is so much his father's child trying to work me over,

Stay strong, I tell myself,

"Well, then march your little butt into the kitchen," I point to it, not breaking my eye contact. This kid will be a handful when he gets older. He definitely is an Alpha child,

He says nothing as he hangs his head, walking so slowly to the kitchen that I think a snail could move faster. I smiled to myself, then a fist pump while his back was to me,

Stubborn little turt, I thought as I walked behind,

Placing him in the chair, He kept his head down, Not looking at me, Or he really is laying it on thick today,

Whipping up a quick lunch, I set it in front of him. Reaching down, kissing his cheek,

"Mama loves you, baby,"

That did it. He looked up with a smile, his eyes beaming. Yep, he is totally his dad's kid,

He quickly ate his lunch.

"Alright, let's go," I tell him. He was out of the chair and to the door before I walked out of the kitchen,

We walked along the path, heading towards the daycare. Lincoln had a house built for us before Damin was born, Saying we need privacy,

I didnt argue. I do not mind living away from the hustle and bustle of the pack house. Dont get me wrong, I love being around the pack members, and I love being Luna to them all, But there are times when it can be hectic and draining. Those are the days I appreciate our home and its quietness of it,

Once the building came into view, Damin wanted to run. He was pulling on my hand and jumping,

Chuckling, I picked up my pace,

Opening the front door, "Ah, Luna Willow," The girl stood walking around the counter,

"I see you brought Damin. She pushed open the door on the side, letting us walk in,

"Arret!" He called out as soon as we stepped in, taking off when he spotted Garret on the other side of the room playing with some blocks,

"I'll be back about four. He has already had lunch,"

"Yes, Luna, We just finished lunch here as well,"

After one quick glance at Damin, I leave, making my way to the pack house,

I know Mia is probably in my office,

I greeted members as I walked in and went straight to my office. I could already hear voices in there.

"Oh my god, Heather!" Mia's voice rang out,

"What?"

"I dont want that picture on my head,"

Waking in, I found Mia rubbing her forehead as Heather sat there smiling at her,

"Heather, what are you doing to my Beta now?"

She places her hand on her chest, "Me? Willow, how could you think it was me," Blinking her eyes at me,

Rolling my eyes at her, "Oh please, it is always you," I point my finger at her,

"Willow," She holds the back of her hand to her forehead. You wound me. She slouches in her chair LIke she is going to pass out,

"You better behave, or I'll call that mate of yours," I smirk at her,

"Oh, so it's like that, huh? I'm not afraid of the big oaf," She looks at her nails like it was nothing,

"Pff," I wave at her, "You not fooling me," I raise a brow at her,

We will know Tyler will go all caveman on her, throw her over his shoulder, and show her who is in charge,

Heather turned sixteen last year. She and Tyler are great together. He hands her better than anyone. She is a spitfire,

With Heather being of Beta blood, she could sense her mate early, but Tyler won't mark her till she is eighteen, which is another year yet. She is always trying to pull something on him to get him to mark her now. She dont like not bearing his mark. It's her Lycan who is pushing it. She wants her mate's mark on her,

Lincoln made Tyler his Gamma, seeing as he was mated to Heather. Tyler was great for that position,

She rolls her eyes, "Whatever," She waves me off,

"Ok, we need to actually work. We need to get the list ready for the Alpha Ball. They need to be sent out this week, and we need to pick a color theme,"

"Hey, Willow, it has been two years. I thought for sure last year you would surprise Lincoln with another baby; how about this year?"

Coughing as I look up at her, "What? NO!"

My eyes Moving to Mia, She shook her head,

"Ha, I knew it!" Heather jumps up, "You're pregnant, aren't you?"
