Blood Lust And Love

Epilogue

Leah looked at the picture on the wall. The Christmas gift from Kai. It had been a year from the war when their lives were all torn upside down. Yet, there was a simple reminder of all the good and a permanent signal of peace. The painting was of Leah's wolf standing beside Alec in human form. Kai only ever heard stories of how Leah used to be a wolf before but never knew exactly how she lost it. She lightly traced the way her wolf looked. It was exactly how she described it to Kai and it was almost identical to her finished mark. After the war ended and she got her wolf back, Leah's mating mark finished showing her and Alec's wolf howling together with their children. All of them. It was a mating mark that looked like a full-body tattoo.

"It's finished." Isaac brought out the hot chocolate for everyone to enjoy. The rest of the family was in the living waiting for Alec to get back from a meeting. The pack summoned it because they had a proposal for Alec and it seemed urgent.

Isaac hobbled out to the living room with the cups. He had a permanent limp from his injuries but that was the worst he suffered. He was lucky to be alive. Peyton helped him set things up and then sat down on the love seat. Isaac curled up beside see him hugging his torso as Peyton wrapped his arm around him. Then he kissed Isaac's forehead and played with his hair.

Leah smiled in their direction before diverting her attention to Seth and Jade with their son. They named him after Alec and called him little Alec to settle the confusion. Seth held on to little Alec and tickled him. A burst of high-pitched laughter filled the room with great volume. Jade looked at her small family. It wasn't what she imagined because she originally wanted no kids and Seth wasn't able to have any, but she wouldn't change it for the world.

There were more changes in the family than just the number of loveseats in the house. Liam and Blaire were together in their seat. Liam placed his hand over Blaire's baby bump. Alec was excited for them but he hoped the baby wouldn't end up as goofy as Liam. They were all just now waiting for Alec to come back from his meeting to start the game night.

Alec laughed out loud and everyone in the room just stared at him. Then he stopped, "Oh wait. You guys weren't joking?"

"No. We took a pack poll and it was anonymous. Even went door to door the last month to check for everyone's real opinion." One spoke.

Alec scratched his head. At first, he thought this was a joke. "I'm not sure if I'd want to see a statue of myself when I walk through the park."

"It would be of you and the Luna." Another said.

"It just seems very narcissistic," Alec replied.

"Perhaps, think of it differently," Damon spoke. He was standing in the corner of the room. Damon was visiting Alec's pack for a day, then he would go home to his own pack that he had with Grace. Since Damon had Alpha blood, and the innocent members of Crow's pack had no Alpha, it worked out perfectly. Plus, Damon and Grace suffered after losing their mates so they clung together like glue healing each other in the process. It worked perfectly as Grace's children took an instant liking to Damon. Once her children were born Remmy stayed with her. Even if Grace didn't know, they cried together as her children were being handed to her. Leah saw Rem disappear into a bright blinding light, and then she knew he had gone to be with the Moongoddess.

The meeting ended with the Alec having the final say. He didn't want a statue of himself and his mate in his pack. Some nights he could barely even stand to look at himself, therefore he didn't want to look at the statue at all.

Alec came home to his family like all the other wolves. He was in for a surprise because he didn't know Peyton and Isaac were going to be there since they had their own pack to be with. Leah invited them for the game night a few days ago and while Alec was at his meeting, Leah snuck them in.
