(Her)

"I beg your pardon?" I ask Hope. I'm still behind Ezra's back and he refuses to take her hand.

"I'm your Godmother, Olivia. And here to protect you." She repeats.

A portal opens and Selina, Noah, Ash, and Mari join us. They are in Hope's back.

"Don't go near!" Mari growls at her before coming by my side too. She is followed by Ash. Since they're fully mated, she is overprotective with me. Sometimes I'm asking myself who is really my Gamma, her or Ash...

"Great, I even have a welcoming committee!" Hope says rolling her eyes.

"Calm down Lycan, I'm here in peace and I don't want to hurt you in your condition." She adds looking at Mari.

"What condition?" Ash asks.

"Hope? Is that you?" Selina says at the same time as Ash.

"Selina! How nice to see you again!" She smiles at Selina.

"Do you know her?" Noah asks her.

"Of course! She's my mother's right hand in Europe!" Selina explains.

"Right... Now I remember I heard about that..." Noah mutters.

"See! Don't need to be so defensive!" Hope comments.

"Wait, what condition?" Ash asks again.

"You don't know? Maybe it's because I'm an elemental that I'm already feeling it?" Hope mutters.

"Feeling what?" Mari asks, anxious.

"Answer the question!" Ash adds ready to lose his temper.

"I wanted to let you the surprise but you asked for it. I feel the life growing in her. Congratulations, you will be parents really soon." She replies.

"What? How? That's impossible!" Mari replies, becoming white.

"Did you use protection when you mate?" I ask her.

"We didn't really think about it. Why? did you?" She replies.

"Duh! Of course, we did!"

"Well, we were so focused on our mating that we didn't think about using protection..." Ash replies.

"And we've mated and mated... Non-spot!" He mutters. When he realized he said it out loud, he turned red.

"Amen...This is nice but maybe we should go talking in a more private place. Let's go back in the pack." Ezra proposes.

"And like that, I will check what an elemental is!" I hear his thoughts in our mate bond. He should have really listened to his history classes.

"It means she can manipulate the elements, like earth, water, fire..." I reply.

"Thank you! " He says.

"Yes, you're right." Selina replies.

"I need to clean my mess before and I still have a witch to handle." Hope says.

"Do you trust her?" Ezra asks me. I shook my head lightly.

"Yeah, me neither!" He adds.

Knox arrives just at the moment.

"Sorry, Alpha asshole was at home! I couldn't come earlier but I felt you were in trouble. Are you okay?" He tells me, checking me to see if I'm fine. he then looks at Hope. His face is blanked and for a few seconds, everything is silent.

"You!" He says before hugging her.

What?! How?! Apparently, everybody knows her but me!

"Knox, you've grown into a hot man!" She comments looking at him, head to toe.
