The Alphas Son

17

"I want you and Weston to move into the pack house with me, I'm ready to be with my son and my true mate...my Luna."

My heart stopped, that was the last thing I thought he was going to say. I wasn't even sure how to go about this. Was I going to be looked at badly if I say yes because scarlet just died? Will people say things about Weston since he was conceived before we found out we were mates? There was too much uncertainty, I had no idea what to even say.

"Rhett," I say as I pull him up off my chest so we're making direct eye contact "I don't know how the pack members are going to feel about having their Luna replaced immediately after she was murdered my rouges. Let alone a Luna that already has a son."
"Our son," he made clear "if they have a problem with you they have a problem with me. Scarlet dying made me realize just how much I need you by my side, how much I need the both of you. I need to have a relationship with my son."
"Let me think on this, this is a lot to take in right now. I still have to find out how to tell Weston that you're his father. I don't want him to be upset with me."
"We can tell him together, he likes me." His smile grew wide at the thought of our son liking him. That made me happy.
"Okay." I say.
"Okay?"
"Yes," I laughed "Unless you want me to change my answer."
"Nope, I'm good."

Rhett starts to stand up and walk towards the front door.

"What are you doing?" I ask
"We're going to see Weston, you said we were gonna talk to him."
"Okay...but you might want to put a shirt on really quick, maybe some shoes too....I don't know I'm just spit balling here."
"Okay smartass I'll put a shirt and some shoes on."
"Thank you, once that's done we can walk over"
"Walk? Why not race? We used to race all the time, remember?"
"Yeah of course I remember, I'm not that old."

Rhett laughed and mumbled something under his breath. Walking out of his room now fully clothed, we made our way outside to start the treck back to my house.

Everything looked a little greener on our walk back, it was like the world had finally settled down. Like I finally knew what peace felt like.

"Oh my god Rhett!"
"What?"
"It's literally 3 am right now, what are we thinking??" I start to laugh as we're still walking to my house.
"Oh shit, you're right." He said back, chuckling.
"I mean we can just head to bed, talk to everyone in the morning," I looked up at him, stopping in my tracks "if you want to of course."

Wes stopped, walked over towards me, and planted a kiss on my lips. His hands went to the sides of my head and his fingers laced in my hair, pushing me deeper into him I felt like my legs were going to give out beneath me. Every cell in my body was screaming for him and I loved every second of it.

I felt him pull away slightly and smile, feeling his lips slightly against mine. "Of course I want to."

Sneaking back into the house made me feel like we were back in high school. My parents had no idea that we were seeing each other until I snuck him in one night and they smelled alpha in the house. Having supernatural abilities is fun and all but you can't get away with anything.

My wolf started to talk to me but I didn't want to hear what she was trying to tell me.

"Rhiannon, how are we supposed to trust him?" My wolf said to me, worry in her voice.

I honestly didn't know.

With everything that happened, how can I just give my heart fully to him? Our son is so fragile, if anything were to happen and Rhett changed his mind, I would kill him for hurting Weston. I would kill him for hurting me again.

I went back into my head, thinking about the old memories of us again, trying to distract myself from my wolf.

"Are you okay rhi?" He asked, snapping me back into reality.
"Yeah, I'm just tired."
"Oh." He said sounding disappointed.
"I'm just going to go to bed, we can get all this sorted out in the morning okay?"
"Yeah, sounds good...." he trailed off, still staring at me "you sure you're okay?"
"Yes. Goodnight."

Closing my eyes I started to dread tomorrow. Something that has excited me for so long is now scary to even think about.

Tomorrow is going to be a new day, hopefully my wolf eases up on me.

I feel tingles up my back as a massive arm pulls me in. My back is to his chest, instantly being comforted by blackness.
