She Wolf: The Beginning

Tragedy Strikes

Chapter 10.25

  The next morning, the happy couples awoke early and held each other. They walked to the alphas home with clothes for the kids and soon everyone met for breakfast. Margaret and Levin joined them and everyone was content. Levin was a bit restless, and Margaret knew he wanted to go home.  

So after breakfast, Margaret agreed to drive back home. She thanked Javon and Elise for their hospitality and then she told Julianne and BJ to take care of each other. She and Levin bid goodbye to their friends and drove back home.

After Margaret left, Javon and Elise had some time alone. Elise moved into his safe embrace. So much had happened and changed that they'd yet had time to really talk. These weren't just normal changes; they were profound. There pack was now linked to vampires and if their suppositions were correct, they were about to become connected to a pack from the ArkLaMiss, the Gaines pack. But that wasn't as concerning to Javon as his new relationship with the vampires.

Although having an alliance with vampires could be a good thing; it could also become problematic. If any of Gernick's enemies decided to strike Gernick, that placed his pack in the position of being targeted, but there was nothing they could do. Gernick had taken precautions and the pack was well guarded.

Javon felt he needed to meet the vampires guarding his pack, and after some time had passed, he'd make sure to go out and meet them. "Javon, don't worry. Everything will be alright." Elise comforted her mate. She knew he was worried about the ramifications of the events that had occurred over the previous days.

"Love, I'm not really. Besides, to know Nicolette is alive and safe is more than I could ever hope for. Gernick talked to me. He told me why he let me live all those years ago. He said because I was strong and a fighter. He really respected me, Elise and was genuine." Elsie hugged him tightly and smiled. "He promised that he'd help in any way that he can, and I believe him. He and Claus are a welcomed addition to our family." Then he laughed, "How long do you think he will have to grovel before you all forgive him?" He'd asked, jokingly.

Elise glared at him and smiled. "Javon, I know to you what we feel may seem like something we should get over, but it's not. He abused her; maybe not physically but emotional and mental scars cut just as deep. Javon, she was so terrified that she cut ties with her family to protect us from him. Mrs. Valdez, Amerie, snapped and we almost lost her. Can you imagine what Nicolette went through during that time? I shudder to think about it, and my heart breaks for her. What he did was wrong and we are not about to let him off the hook. But because Nicky asks it of us, we will deal with it and accept him fully, but it will take time. We aren't like you guys and aren't as able to let stuff go. She almost died Javon, because of his abuse. We could have lost her and the baby. I know he didn't mean to hurt her and he's truly remorseful; that's why at some point, we must forgive him." Javon nodded and held her close. His mate was amazing and strong. The fates had chosen well for him. Javon was smiling when the next statement she gave made him hyperventilate. "Javon, honey, I want a new pup."

Javon choked, "What? Baby, the twins are just old enough for us to have time alone. Why do you-" Elise interrupted. "Last night when we kept Nickie and Theo, it reminded me of when ours were small. They are so big now and I want a baby to cuddle. Javon, don't you want more children," she asked kissing his neck distracting the Alpha. He loved the frisky, playful side of his mate and it had been a while since they'd spent a more amorous evening alone.

Elsie decided to remind her mate of their young wild days. Slowly she rose and crooked her finger for him to follow. Javon, being such an obedient lover, followed along calmly. Leading Javon to the bedroom, Elise wasted no time shoving her more than eager spouse onto their bed. Slowly she climbed over him, gently fastening his arms to the bedpost. "Mr. Alpha, for the next few hours, I'm in control. You sir, will do whatever I ask, when I ask, how I want, and when."
