"Victoriaaaaa how much farther? " Zoey whined for the hundredth time since we started driving. I rolled my eyes at my sister
while I looked to Luka for help.
"Just a few more minutes Zoey" He told her. "We're passing along Silent Moon territory, so we should be there in about thirty
minutes."
"Thiiiirty minutessss. Ugh" She dragged, hitting her head against the window. "Why do I even have to come? "
"Because-" I started sternly. "-the last time we left you alone for a meeting, you cut your hair and almost got a tattoo. "
"Oh come on that was like so two weeks ago. And I wouldn't be alone, Lincoln and Ciara are home"
I just gave her a pointed look, which immediately quieted her down. Was I so moody when I was a teenager?
"Ciara is as free spirited as you Zoey. If you tell her to jump off a plane with you, she will" My very smart and serious eight year
old son said from beside her.
"Oh hush it Levi. Ciara is fun" She defended.
I couldn't help but chuckle. Ciara was indeed a handful, and Lincoln didn't seem to mind one bit. Her bold and adventurous
character pulled anyone towards her, especially my fourteen year old sister who is very much like Ciara.
"Just sit tight and text or something. And pull up your top. The Alpha's son is around your age, and I don't want his eyes
wondering"
She mumbled something getting bigger clothes and I couldn't help but agree with her for once. The girl was maturing like a
pumpkin. Her bust and hips were coming in a little too quickly for my liking. But what can I do?
She was really growing up well and beautiful. Her skin was always glowing, not a pimple in sight and her eyes were always so
bright and vibrant, even after Daisy died.
We lost her three years ago, but it was peaceful. Nobody was ready to say goodbye to her so soon, especially Zoey. But her
loving aura always lingered, providing us with the comfort we needed to move on.
And we did, slowly but surely.
Luka and I have been doing greatly over the years, and I realized I was better at this Luna thing than I expected. After we had
Levi, everything else felt so right.
Levi was a special one. He already held so many Alpha qualities. From his stance to his voice that he tried to deepen when he
talked, to his confident personality that made him seem older than his age.
He had Luka's features mostly, which they both liked very much. Luka tried giving him his name, but Emma, Ashley and I had
already settled on Levi. So, Luka being Luka, still insisted on giving our son his name, making it Levi Luka Jones.
Like his last name wasn't enough already.
They adored each other, and I loved to see it. Levi looked up to his father, and Luka was nothing but proud of his son already.
The only time Levi ever acted his age was when he was around Zavior and Malachi. The three were inseparable, and it made us
happy that the future leaders were already working together so well.
Sometimes, per Levi's request, they would play "Pack",where they would pretend they were the Alpha, Beta and Gamma. It was
the cutest thing ever.
Zavior was very much like his dad --goofy and fun to be around. Ashley had a handful to deal with, but she loved him regardless
of his pranks and stunts.
Malachi was somewhere in the middle, and being the youngest, he'd learnt how to be tough. So when Levi and Zavior teased
him, he came back strong.
Lincoln found Ciara a year after Levi was born, and they wasted no time in making their family. I was happy for Lincoln, and even
up to this day, he's still my best friend.
Nothing really changed between us all. We were still Ashley, Emma and Victoria, now with Ciara and Laura. The few times we
actually put our kids and mates aside and had girls night, they were epic. We worried our men all night and acted like we were
21 again.
The good ol' days.
"Dad, can I go stay Aunt Emma and Uncle Ty this summer?" Levi asked, and I noticed that Zoey suddenly perked up.
"I want to go too." She said quickly, making us laugh.
"Sure guys. I'll call them later and let them know that you guys are coming next week" Luka confirmed smoothly, not once taking
his eyes from the road.
Levi just casually leaned back in his chair, while Zoey started rambling about going to London.
She always liked it there. Sometimes I thought she liked it better than home. Since Alex's sister was her age, she always loved
the company.
Here at home, she felt like she was too old to hang out with the kids, and too young to hang out with the adults. She was always
stuck to her phone until she went to school or to her friend Emily at the pack house.
I also had a feeling that she liked Emerald pack because Emma allowed her to do what she wanted. Last Christmas, Emma
straightened her hair for the first time. Yup she straightened it.
I had nothing against it, but Zoey wouldn't stop whining about how she liked it straightened, since it was "easier to deal with", and
she loved the way it felt at the bottom of her back.
Her hair was that long.
She has beautiful hair and she loves it, but she can't tame or manage it no matter how much she tries.
Hence why I always combed it for her, giving her cute twists outs, braids or cornrows. Otherwise she just caught it up in
something that looked like a bun, or just left it loose. But nonetheless, she had wonderful hair.
So, when Luka and I left a few weeks ago to attend an important meeting and I came home to find half of the length gone, I was
furious. Her hair that once fell in the middle of her back in loose coily curls now sat at the base of her shoulders.
"It's my hair, you can't tell me what to do! " She had said when I scolded her about it.
Ah, the first 'you cant tell me what to do' moment. I knew I had a few more coming and I wasn't looking forward to it.
I'm glad I had supportive people, and Emma was always the Zoey whisperer. Since Zoey and Emma's six year old daughter, Lia,
got along so well despite their vast age difference, I never denied her going to spend time with Emma in England.
And since Ty's son got along well with Levi also, I didn't deny him either. Besides, I trust them with my kids.
"We're here" Luka announced relieved, making Zoey and Levi perk up at this.
"Fina-woah" Zoey stared awestruck.
I had to agree with her. The Truemoon Pack's Alpha house was something to behold. The first time I came here I was also in
shock.
Luka set down some ground rules to Levi and Zoey, simply telling them not to wander off when we were in the meeting. We then
proceeded to the door, where Alpha Ace was waiting to greet us.
We exchanged friendly greetings and headed inside, seeing the line up they always did when we came to visit. We greeted Luna
Roxanna, Beta Calum, Gamma Scott and their mates.
We introduced Zoey and Levi, since it was their first time here, just as a thudding sound on the stairs caught our attention.
My eyes darted towards them to see that it was Ace's son, Niall, and he looked so much more grown up than the last time I saw
him. He looked startled by our presence, but quickly recovered.
"I didn't notice you guys have arrived. It's nice to see you again." He said politely with his charming smile. I realized his voice
even got deeper.
"I'm sorry for intruding, I was just passing by"
"Niall" His mother called with a hidden scold in her voice, but as a mother too I picked it up. "Come introduce yourself, don't you
notice the new faces?"
His eyebrows shot up as he noticed Zoey and Levi who were standing close to us. His eyes lingered on Zoey for a while longer,
but he quickly composed himself and came towards us.
"My apologies" He smiled down at Levi, who was already sizing up respectfully to another future Alpha. "Niall Wilson, pleasure
meeting you"
It warmed my heart at how mature and respectfully he was being towards Levi, despite the age difference.
"Levi Jones. Pleasure meeting you too"
He then proceeded to Luka and I, shaking our hands and expressing greetings.
"Luna Victoria. Looking as beautiful as ever" The fifteen year old smiled, placing a kiss on my hand. I blushed at his sweetness
as his dad shook his head amusingly and Luka chuckled lightly.
He was always a charmer.
Then he turned to Zoey, and all boldness and confidence faded. I saw as he visibly swallowed, looking like a shy teenage boy
rather than the bold Alpha's son.
"Uh-hi. I'm uh..um"
"Niall, I know" Zoey said with a blush, and he too broke out in a burning red. "I'm Zoey"
His eyes softened a huge fraction at the sound of her name as he worded it silently with his mouth. She then pushed out a hand
to shake, and the minute they touched, both their eyes widened a fraction before they quickly pulled away as fast as they
touched.
We all watched them strangely, Luka and I sharing a look as we eyed them. We then both shared a look with Niall's parents,
seeing that they too were thinking what we were thinking.
"I feel like I've known you all my life." Zoey whispered softly, both of them still staring at each other as if they were the only
persons in the room.
"And you're the prettiest girl I've ever seen" He told her shyly, causing her to break out in a brighter blush. She bit her lip and
pushed a curl behind her hair, and I suddenly felt like this conversation was too old for them.
"I bet you've seen a lot of girls. That cant be true"
His charming smile was back as he stepped closer to her. "Oh but it is. You are. And your hair is so beautiful "
He reached out to touch her hair and she let him.
"And your eyes are beautiful.. " His hand trailed from the curl down her cheek, and I swore I saw my fourteen year old sister
shiver. Shiver!
"And your lips.. "
"Okay! " Roxy exclaimed with a clap, breaking them out of their daze and I released a breath I didn't realize I was holding.
"Why don't you THREE go find something to do" She placed Levi between them. "And while you're at it, find Asia and Jared too.
"
She placed a kiss on Niall's head, which he tried to duck with an embarrassed look on his face.
He gave Zoey another longing look before leading them through a hallway.
We looked around at each other with knowing looks. After what we've just witnessed, there was a ninety percent chance that
those two will be mates.
But since none of them are 16 yet and haven't shifted or woken their wolves, they wouldn't know just yet. They would just feel
attracted to each other without knowing why. And that which I just witnessed was enough confirmation.
Luka and I followed Roxy and Ace into an office where we settled down comfortably before starting. I've been here quite a few
times, and it was safe to say our relationship was past professional. We were all more like friends.
"So do you think they are mates? " Roxy asked me excitedly.
"Oh I know they are" I replied with just as much enthusiasm.
"If they are, that would give us more lead on my theory that Zoey is from a high ranking family of wolves" Luka said to me in
hidden excitement.
The more Zoey grew, the more Luka and all the other wolves in the house were convinced that she was a high ranking wolf.
Since Daisy and I are human, we had no clue what they smelled or sensed, but Luka was hell bent on the theory.
And since high ranking wolves such as Alphas, Betas and Gammas were 99% only mated to high ranking wolves like
themselves, there would be no doubt about it if Zoey is actually Niall's mate.
"I guess we just have to wait and see" Ace said as he picked up a file. Roxy and I groaned simultaneously. We never liked
meetings, but with packs who have alliances together, we had to have them.
Luna duties call.
***
"And then he picked me up with his strong arms and put me in the tree, then he just hopped up beside me like it was nothing! "
Zoey was telling Ashley and Ciara about her day with Niall, and I chuckled at how excited she still told the story. She talked
Luka’s and I ears off about him the whole six hour drive home.
The WHOLE six hours.
Ciara and Ashley seemed interested though, and I knew Zoey was gonna call Emma later, then tell her friend Emily tomorrow.
I let her have her moment. These are the times of teenage lives after all. I for one had a very wild teenage years, so I intended to
let her have a very fun SUPERVISED teenage experience too.
I made my way to my room, where I found Luka sprawled off on the bed asleep. I knew he was tired, but I had other plans for us
before he could sleep. I climbed on top of him and trailed kisses down his neck and bare chest until I felt him start shuffling.
"Victoria " He mumbled, his voice husky and low, which turned me on even more.
I buried my head in his neck again, dropping hot steamy kisses at the area, nipping and sucking ever so often. I heard him groan
in approval as his arms loosely wrapped themselves around my waist.
"Bed so soon sweetie? " I asked in my seductive voice which, over the years, I've learnt how to master. And even after all this
time, it still had an effect on him.
He grunted as I worked my hips against his already hard member, and he gripped them tightly, squeezing and kneading as I
found his lips with mine.
We kissed passionately and roughly, and before I knew it we were both stripped and heated. He relished himself in my body, and
every time felt like the first time.
My body was still very responsive to his, and his to mine. We collapsed on each other as we recovered from our high, and I laid
still on top of him tracing his chest with my finger.
He kissed my forehead and mumbled something I couldn't hear well, but I caught what I needed to hear.
"I love you my beautiful wife"
I smiled as I looked up from his chest to his eyes. His head reached down and kissed my lips softly again.
"I love you too my wonderful husband"
I recaptured his lips in mine, igniting the flame once again between us.
And just like that, we advanced into another round of steamy, hypnotic ecstasy.
