7 Months later.

I held my baby in my arms, beautiful Mackenzie, the perfect innocent girl without any mistakes from our past. A new beginning. Over the past seven months, Ethan and I had reconnected and fallen deeper in love with each other. We got married a soon after I everything settled and before the baby began to show, I didn't want my child to ever have a claim to being a bastard and we were in love and didn't see the point in waiting.

"She is beautiful," Ethan whispered as I held her in my arms.

"Perfect," I replied. Ethan and I stared at our beautiful baby and only joy filled my heart; everything had worked out no matter all the complication.

Over the course of the afternoon family members came by and saw Mackenzie each showing love and hope for the future of the pack. Mackenzie was the next in line to become Alpha, even though she was female Ethan and I made sure nothing would stop her inheriting her birthright.

When it was finally time to take Mackenzie home, I was nervous to have this dependent child who relies on me for everything. I was scared to leave my child like my parents did, to have this baby end up like Henry or even worst on the same path I did.

"You seem distracted. Everything okay?" Ethan asked from next to me in the car.

"Yeah just nervous," I replied staring at the face of our child.

"Don't be. We will do this together, and my parents will be there. We will take over the pack in a few months, and you can take on the role of Luna." Ethan said with a smile. Ethan and I were planned to take over the pack in 4 months; I was worried about the baby that it would be too much, but Hailey ensured me we wouldn't be alone.

"What if I just don't want to run the pack?" I admitted.

"What do you mean?" Ethan asked curiously.

"I have dreams, Ethan. Things I want to do. University and a career not just running the pack." I conceded.

"We can discuss this later sweetie. You are tired, and we just had our baby. Give the plans for the future a rest the afternoon." Ethan reached over and grasped my hand lightly.

"What about Scar Face?" I asked Ethan as we pulled up at the house.

"What about him?" Ethan asked turning around to face me in his seat.

"We never caught him. He is still out there." This had become a fear through my pregnancy that he would come back for me. It kept me awake night after night with fear.

"Don't worry about him. We are stronger together and if he ever tries anything again, we will be we ready." Ethan calming voice made me for a minute feel like everything was going to be okay.

"And what about my powers? How they will affect Mackenzie? What if she get my powers?" I asked scared.

"Then we will teach her how to control them and embrace the part of her." I looked back down to Mackenzie and fear sparked in my heart but also love for this man and our baby.

"Thank you," I whispered, looking over back at Ethan.

"These are normals fears. I have the same ones, but we will bare any storm together."

Four months later

"I Ethan Mitchell promise to protect this pack with every breath. Love every member, respect everyone and pray for the strength to be a strong and powerful leader this pack needs." I stood next to Ethan as he spoke his vow to become Alpha. I smiled as pride swam through me as my husband, mate, and father to my child embraced his role in the pack. It has be nearly a year since the darkness left me and I return to begin my life here and every day has be full of happiness laced with fear but this day was perfect.

My life though difficult in the past right now in this moment is perfect. I know that there is still bumps to come and challenges that will test Ethan and I as husband and wife, as parents and Alpha's but no matter what if we stay together and remember the good we will be okay.

Ethan looked down and smiled a true loving smile as we stepped into the future together. As one. Completely and wholely connected.

Short and sweet but just tieing up loose ends.

I would like to thank everyone for sticking through the spelling mistakes, late updates, and messy plots lines. When I edit it will probably add more but I will let you know :)

I hope you enjoyed the ride and look out for a whole new story.

Thank you.
