Runaway Wolf

Chapter 25

Sage's P.O.V

After finding out we're having twins me and Ryker celebrated properly, without alcohol of course. Ryker says that he will not be drinking alcohol during this pregnancy so I don't feel alone or something like that. Gosh he's so sweet.

Right now we're back in the pack house getting ready for bed. I can't tell you how much being pregnant makes you tired. I swear everyday i feel even more tired.

After I finish taking a shower with much help from Ryker, I put on my clothes and make my way to bed.

Ryker soon joins in with me. He moves his right hand to my ratherly large stomach and rubs it like it's the most fragile thing ever discovered by man.

"You think he'll look like me and she'll look like you?" I smile at the thought of how our children will look. "Hopefully,  except I want them both to have your eyes. I've always been in love with them." He chuckles and kisses my tummy then me. "I love you Sage." I smile widely, "I love you too Ryker."

We then fall asleep in each others arms peacefully.

Cecilia's P.O.V

I scowl as I watch them sleep. I could have this with MY mate but the Moon Goddess had to mess that up for me. I just can't wait till they're falling at my feet for mercy. Then, and only then will I be fully satisfied.

I slowly creep out the room without being heard or seen,  it's a skill you pick up when you've lived like me for years on end. 

I make my way to my room and scatter out my plans. I still need to find a way to get Ryker out of the picture. I can't have him ruining my plans in any way.

I stand up and walk to my dresser. I open up my top drawer with a key and look through my various viles.

Snake poison. Frog warts. Masking spray. Aha! Love Potion.

One drop of this in his coffee or any drink and he'll fall in love with the next person be sees after that. And that person will be me.

Now it might seem crazy that I have all these serums and potions seeing as I am not a witch. I may not be a witch but I do have connections. Do you know how many witches and other supernatural brings have bones to pick with the goddess? The number is crazy.

I put the vile back down till morning comes. Just you wait and see Ryker, you'll soon be mine and out of the way.

I smirk as I peacefully fall asleep.

Ryker's P.O.V

I wake up feeling well rested and excited. Excited because today is officially the one month mark till the babies will be born. (A/N: I'm sorry if this sounds wrong but just go with it)

I hop out of bed leaving a resting Sage to sleep some more. I brush my teeth, hair, and out on some clothes. I walk out of the bedroom door quietly, to not wake Sage.

I walk down the halls and into the kitchen where most of the pack is. I say a couple goodmornings and recurve some back.

I go through my usual breakfast routine. First plate me and Sage's food before everything disappears, make a cup of OJ, now that Sage is pregnant, and for me a cup of coffee. I put down our drinks and go to the fridge to get some butter for our toast.

In the corner of my eye I see Cecilia, but decide to go on with what in doing and not shoot a nasty scowl at her. After I decide to get both jelly and butter, I walk back to our food and bring the plates to the dining room table individually.

I then go back to walk up a very much sleeping Sage.

Cecilia's P.O.V

Things are definitely working in my favorat the moment. I woke up feeling good, went to sleep feeling good, and got the potion into Ryker's coffee without a flaw.

I smirk evily as he walks into the dining room with an obviously sleepy Sage. Poor pregnant girl, too bad her big hunky mate will soon be mine.

I sit next to Sage and begin conversation about the twins as if I actually care. I can feel Ryker's heated gaze on my neck but I choose to take no recognition of it.

I see him grab for his coffee. I smirk as my plan begins.

"Hey Sage what's that? I ask pointing under the table. As she ducks her head out of Ryker's view, I swerve into his direction of vision as he take a gulp of his coffee.

He puts down the cup and begins to heat up, blush maybe? He coughs as of he's trying to pull himself together, but I can see the spell taking over. "I don't see anything Cecilia." Sage says as she pops back up from under the table. "Well maybe I was just seeing things. You know silly me." She smiles warmly and eats her breakfast.

The rest of the time I can feel Ryker stare at me throughout the rest of breakfast. I blush a couple of times as he winks like a complete and total flirt. I didn't realize how cute he is. Who knows, maybe I'll appoint him as my new mate.

We all leave the dining room after we've finished eating. I hear Ryker tell Sage to go on back to the room so that he can help clean up. I smirk and offer to help as well.

As I'm wiping down the dining room table I am interrupted. "Cecilia." Ryker breaths out. I turn around giving him my biggest and best smile. "Yes Ryker." I say acting all sad. This is step 2, make him feel bad so that he'll be coiled around my finger and I can play him like a puppet. "I just wanted you to know I'm sorry to the way I've treated you the past few weeks. You don't deserve it. Your worth so much more." He takes a couple steps closer and brushes his hand up to my face.

"But I do want you to know that I don't know what can over me, but I feel like a brand new man and if Sage wasn't pregnant with the twins at the very moment.." I gulp as I hear the next sentence that leaves his mouth.

"I would definitely choose you over her any day." He then slowly and passionately kisses me on my cheek then leaves.
