64 - Life Goes On
“This one, try this one for me,” Skyler said, holding up a scrap piece of lace fabric that probably wouldn’t even cover one of my huge boobs.
“It’s already a piece of scrap and you would just claw it off me and have it shredded in a second anyhow,” I said, quite seriously.
“The thrill is in the chase, come on pllllease,” he said, whining.
We had been in the mall shopping for over two hours and I was beat. I was coming up on nearly a month pregnant, which in human terms was nearly half way there.
“Baby, I love your growing body so fucking much, huge boobs and a perfect ass, obviously you know I can’t get enough,” Skyler said, bending down to kiss my belly.
I quickly looked around to make sure no one heard him, he had no filter no matter where we were.
A foot kicked just where his mouth had been and I instinctively put my hand over it and smiled.
“See! He agrees with daddy, mommy is hot stuff,” Skyler said, wiggling his eyebrows.
Violet growled and flirted with Dusk, telling him all kinds of naughty things.
I swatted him away and said, “you will not be teaching my twins to think their mommy is sexy.”
He put his arm around me and we walked to the pretzel shop.
“I need three for each baby, cause they’ll want another later,” I said, quite seriously.
Skyler grinned and asked for twenty pretzels. I certainly didn’t object. My cravings had been all over the place but the last few days I really wanted salty stuff.
“Look who it is,” I heard from a familiar voice.
I turned to see my Grammy and two of her pack friends. Her hands immediately went to my belly and started rubbing, which made both babies kick like crazy.
I gawked at Grammy, who had certainly taken to the mall life, wearing all the latest fashions. I think her and mom were spending a bit too much time with Daisy and Sunny but … if it made them happy.
“Is everyone coming to Ash’s hearing tomorrow,” I asked Grammy.
“Oh of course sugar, we wouldn’t miss it, having a relative on the council, whew we are big shots now,” she grinned.
She bumped shoulders with me and I wanted to be as celebratory as she was, but I was really just so tired. These kids were taking it right out of me.
“We’re going to head home, my little mate needs a foot rub,” Skyler cooed at me.
The guys were obsessed with my feet for some reason, but I didn’t object since they were excellent masseuses and I’d let them do whatever the heck they wanted anyhow.
“Nice seeing you baby girl, you take care of my Lilly,” Grammy said, pointing her finger at Skyler.
“It’s all I want to do forever,” he said, taking my hand.
“Awwww,” Grammy’s friends cooed.
I rolled my eyes. Sometimes Skyler was over the top, but I would never tell him that. Maybe it was the hormones talking but sometimes it was just annoying.
We got home and Skyler began hanging up some of the things he’d bought me, including a very conservative maternity dress to wear for tomorrow. I already felt big as a house.
I stripped completely naked and fell into bed, with pretzel in hand.
“Now that is damn sexy,” he said, licking his lips.
“I’m a cow with a damn hay bale in my mouth,” I said, taking a huge bite.
He climbed up the bed trying to be all seductive. He threw his shirt off and even though I was still quite used to it, the sight made me breathless.
“You’re my beautiful cow and I love you,” he said, nipping at my legs with his teeth.
I melted all over and shamelessly spread my legs to him. Within seconds he was licking my wet core and I continued eating the pretzel, because I couldn’t help myself.
Best of both worlds ... I was one spoiled as hell she-wolf.

~River’s Point of View~

I hated that I was totally out of the loop with the investigations into my dad’s council appointment, but of course I understood. I was, however, assigned to investigate Angel so that had been keeping me busy.
It takes a lot of time to do all the basic leg work, interview her family and friends, other Shadows, etc. You also have to interview the person and go pretty deep into their life. At this point, I knew far more about Angel than she probably did. I had met with the other two investigators, and we voted to pass her on for a council vote.
The night before her hearing, I delivered our report to Quinn and almost tried to poke around about my dad’s appointment but I held my tongue.
I hadn’t seen my sweet little mate all day, and I was desperate to cuddle up with her. Seeing her pregnant was unlike anything I’d ever imagined, and rubbing her belly, caring for her was all I thought about.
“Shh, she’s already asleep,” Skyler said, as I peeked in at Lilly.
“Aw damn I didn’t even get to see her today,”I whined.
“We went to the mall, I guess I tuckered her right out,” Skyler said, waving me off.
“Yeah that’s why you reek of her and the room smells like sex,” I said, jealous as hell.
He grinned at me and went to play a video game. I got something to eat, showered and climbed in bed with her anyhow. She turned into me and sniffed my neck, then fell right back asleep.
I sighed, desperate to feel her, taste her but I just couldn’t be selfish that way. I held out hope that she might wake me up in the middle of the night, which she’s done several times … but lately the poor thing has been too exhausted.
I got my wish the next morning, when I woke up to Lilly on her knees and between my legs, stroking me and sucking me. I don’t know how she always had the energy for us all, but I wasn’t complaining.
“Hmmm yeah baby just like that,” I moaned.
I felt Skyler stirring and I wanted to slap him right out of the room. I didn’t sense Hunter so he must have gotten stuck on patrol.
“Hmmm, hmmmm,” I heard from Lilly.
I looked up to see Skyler now had bent her over and was fingering her from behind. The vibration of her moaning on me felt so damn good and I never wanted it to stop.
I reached down for Lilly’s head and put my hand on her hair, helping to guide her. She was suctioned right to me, taking me in and out of her, it was so damn intense.
“Lilly baby, yes, yes baby,” I moaned, ready to bust.
Skyler picked up his pace because she started rocking back and forth, but she never relented on me. Her moans increased and about a minute later she was screaming around my dick and I lost it, shooting my warm seed into her mouth. She swirled her tongue around me and around me and it lasted forever.
“Oh fuck Lilly, ohh baby,” I moaned, as she stopped rocking.
Skyler made a big show out of licking his fingers and I was desperate to get my taste. Her sweet juices were like honey to a bear, and I craved her.
Without a word, Lilly collapsed on me, wrapping her little arm around my chest and she fell right back asleep. I looked up at Skyler and he grinned, asshole.
“We don’t have long, I’ll start breakfast,” he said.
“Least you could do,” I said, just as he left the room.
It took some effort but I was able to get Lilly up and ready for the council hearing on time. It was a packed house, with many Shadows coming to watch the results. Of course since Lilly was coming, and it was daytime anyhow, Godfrey ordered all vampires to rest for the day.
My sisters were pissed they were not allowed to come, even though this day was a huge honor for our family they were not a Shadow nor were either of them the mate of a Shadow so they were not permitted.
The council did from time to time allow people like warlock Ben and witch Katrina to be brought to the packhouse, but it was rare.
“Come to order, let’s begin,” Dina said, banging her gavel.
“Since we seem to have attracted such a crowd we’ll deal with the appointments first then dispense with normal business,” Godfrey said.
“We will be allowing Isaac to vote today but since we are down to four, Godrey’s vote will count for two in the event of a tie,” Quinn said.
“Investigators, please present your findings,” Godfrey said.
After our presentations, everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, it looked like both new council members would be approved.
The council took a recess for half an hour and we weren’t entirely sure how it was going since we heard a lot of yelling and things being thrown in Godfrey’s chambers. Maybe it was just how they talked things out? No one certainly dared to interrupt.
Finally, the four council members returned to their seats and everyone was on edge.
“In the matter of appointing Ash Black to be the werewolf council member we shall now vote, all those in favor,” Quinn said.
Every one of them raised their hand. I was sitting next to my dad, and I squeezed his hand.
Congrats dad, I said to him over mind-link.
I was pretty sure everyone else was bombarding him at the same time so I didn’t bother him further.
“In the matter of appointing Angel Baros to be the witch council member, all those in favor,” Quinn said.
Again, all raised their hands.
“The swearing in of a council member is a very sacred and private affair. We will take Angel and Ash to Godfrey’s chambers for that part. I wanted to also make a statement regarding Fiona since there has been a great deal of interest regarding her trial. It will be closed to the public, and by that I mean only the council, attorneys and investigators shall be present. It will be in three weeks. That’s all for this morning, regular court will resume at 2pm,” Quinn said, banging his gavel.
Our family quickly hugged and congratulated my father before he was off to be sworn in.
