Chapter 76


    Dr. Langley released me with a full bill of health for both me and the pup. Paternity also came back


    naming Gavin the father, and even though he trusted me, he’s been wearing a big ole grin ever since. I


    wish I could say something positive about Den’s


    attitude, but he’s been sulking ever since we left the ck Forest pack. I can’t really me him,


    though. Learning that you have been duped, not only by your child’s mother, but by the pack doctor,


    that’ s a lot to take in.


    When Den disclosed to me that he had smelled a familiar male on L one day but couldn’t ce it,


    it all came together. L and Dr. Langley are sleeping together. L used the good doctor to her


    advantage, but what I don’t understand is why is he still helping her if she is now the Luna, now that


    she chose Den over him?


    There are still holes to fill, but we will find the answers. The fact that she might have been behind me


    getting pregnant as well, that’ s not something I’m going to take lying down. I am an Alpha now, and


    she has done a grave offense against both me and Gavin. I will get my revenge against her, but right


    now, I want to see how my pack is and then take care of Jasper.


    Den will be holding him in his cells for the time being because I don’t want him anywhere near me or


    my pack. Gavin didn’t want to take him to his pack because he doesn’t trust his father not to release


    him. That is another issue all together that has yet to be handled.


    I nce out the window and see all the familiar scenery and excitement takes hold of me. I can’t wait to


    see Cici and Spencer, who had to stay behind due to Alpha Daniel knowing about Demi


    and little Ayden being part of the pack now. Gavin informed me that he ns on taking them to Deke’s


    pack for the time being but wasn’t able to get it done beinging for me.


    The streets are lined with Dark Moon’s pack members cheering as we pass them by. I make sure my


    window is down, so I can wave and smile at as many members as I can as we drive by. I’ve missed


    them all so much, and I notice that there are a few new faces as well. I look back questioningly at


    Gavin.


    “You have about a hundred and fifty new pack members that were sworn in.” He grins proudly at me; I


    am so proud of you Quinn. Look at what you have! Theye, wanting to have you lead them.”


    Even Den can’t hide his smile after hearing Gavin’s statement, “You know Gavin,” Den turns in


    his seat from the front passenger seat, “you’re still an a*shole, but you have grown since being with


    Quinn. Even though, I still think that I’m the better male for her, I know you will treat her good and look


    out for her.”


    Gavin scoffs at his cousin, “I’m really not sure whether to take that as apliment or be offended by


    it.”


    I chuckle and ce my hand over his, which is resting on my thigh, “Take it as apliment, babe,


    because you probably won’t hear anything close to it again from him.” I turn and wink at Den,


    making him grin before turning back around just as we pull up to the pack house.


    Cicies barreling down the steps as the car stops, and Den jumps out quickly, not wanting my


    best friend to barrel into me as I get out. I didn’t want to tell any of them over the phone about the pup,


    so knowing my best friend, she would knock me to the ground first and then ask questionster.


    Cici literally growls at the Alpha for blocking her passage, but when I step out from around him, her


    eyes go widen with surprise. Spencer has the same expression as his mate does. I think this may be


    the first time that I have ever seen my friend speechless. The anger finallyes, and I have to hold


    up my hand to stop her.


    “Gavin is the father of my pup.”


    Another look of surprise as she nces back and forth between


    us before a smile lights up her face and she throws her arms around my neck, “I’ve missed you so


    much! Don’t ever do that again, do you hear me?”


    “Yes, I promise to never go anywhere by myself again.” I hug her back and tears begin to form. I’m so


    happy to be back home, with the people who love me.


    Cici pulls away from me, “Now, how about we go inside and rx. You look like a whale; how much


    longer do you have?”


    This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Iugh at Cici’s non-filtered mouth, “Thank you for the insult, and I have about two months left.”


    “Well, there is so much to do before the babyes!”


    “Before ‘he’es.” I correct my friend.


    “Oh, my Goddess! You’re having a little Alpha!” She squeals.


    “Even if it was a girl, she would still be Alpha.” I chuckle.


    “Oh, you know what I mean.” She waves myment away, “We also have to figure out when to


    announce your union.”


    “Uh, Cici,” Gavin jumps in, “Can we just let Quinn rest a bit before throwing all this at her?”


    “Oh, gosh! I’m so sorry, I just got so excited, but yes, go upstairs and get some rest.” She pats my


    shoulder and lets me turn around and face Den.


    “Will you be heading back right away, or are you staying for a bit?”


    “You should rest, and I should go check on my son. Goddess only knows what his mother has been


    doing while I’ve been away. I wille by tomorrow and check on you, okay?”


    “That sounds good. Give Holden a kiss and hug from me. I’m sure he’s gotten so big since I’ve been


    gone.” My eyes sting at the thought of all I’ve missed since being in captivity.


    Den leans in and kisses my forehead, “I’ll bring him with me tomorrow, how does that sound?”


    “Thank you! I would love to see him!”


    Den and Carter head back to the Storm River pack while Gavin takes me inside picking me up


    bridal-style to carry me up the stairs. There is no arguing with the proud father-to-be when ites to


    my well-being.


    I end up sleeping until morning, but it was very much needed, let me tell you. Being pregnant and


    working from morning to night doesn’t go well together at all. Sleeping in my bed alone gave me a great


    night of sleep, instead of sleeping in that pathetic twin-size bed with springs sticking out everywhere.


    Gavin’s arms around me may have had something to do with it as well. I’ve missed him holding me at


    night, and I thought that I would never feel them around me again, or the kisses he’s sprinkling across


    my shoulder as I wake up.


    “Mm, Mr. Davis, you’re already spoiling me, and I haven’t even been home for twenty-four hours.”


    “I n on spoiling you every day for the rest of our lives, Miss Night.”


    I turn in his arms, so we are facing each other, “So, we should probably talk about our union ceremony.


    Are you still wanting to wait until I know what I want?”


    “Do you know what you want, Quinn?”


    “I know that I want you. I know that I’m in love with you, Gavin, and that you make me happy. I know


    that you are kind and caring, and nothing like your father. I know that you will make a great Alpha, and


    if your father refuses to give you your rightful title, you will still be the Alpha of Dark Moon. I also know


    that you will make a wonderful father to our pup. Does that answer your question, Gavin?”


    “Will you answer one more question for me, Quinn?” he asks in a husky voice.


    “Of course.”


    “Can I kiss you?”


    The smile that appears is automatic, “Yes, Gavin. You can kiss me.”


    That’s all for today! I’ll be posting one chapter for tomorrow, and then back to 2 a day! =)
