97 Epilogue (Part 1)
Three and a Half Months Later
Olivia POV
I swear my body is not my own anymore. The pups are using my insides for their own personal playground. I can’t stop peeing, and I constantly have a foot in my ribs. “What’s wrong, Oli? Are you still having pain,” my
mother asks, her voice laced with concern. “No, I’m just uncomfortable. I really thought that I would have
delivered by now. The pack doctor said three months and I’m still pregnant. I feel like they are never getting
out.”
She giggles and I glare at her. “I’m sorry, Oli. I know you’re uncomfortable, but the pups will come when they
are ready,” she says. “Not true. The pack doctor says if I don’t go into labor in the next few days I’m going to
have to be induced. The pups are already huge. They are running out of room.” Concern flashes in her eyes,
and she moves to sit next to me on the couch. “Oli, why didn’t you say anything before now? What does Ace
think,” she asks.
“He agrees, but he is hopeful that the pups will get on board before we have to go that route.” “You know there are things that can help labor along. I heard that s*x is very effective,” she says with a smirk. “Mom, do you
think I haven’t tried that already. Hell, Ace is afraid to be alone in a room with me because I’ve practically
attacked him. I want these pups out.” She throws her head back and laughs.
“I’m afraid to ask what has your mother cackling like a mad woman,” Xavier says as he steps into the room
with Calliope in his arms. I reach out my hands, and he hands me my sister. “Oli was just telling me how she
has been using Ace to try to bring on her labor,” my mother says. I know what my mother is trying to do.
Xavier looks confused as he looks between us. I giggle the moment he realizes exactly what she means.
A look of disgust crosses his features and he groans. Xavier and I will never have the conventional stepfather and step–daughter relationship, but I consider him my family now. I would protect him as much as he would protect me. He isn’t the same man I met when I was seventeen. He isn’t the villain in my story anymore and, honestly, besides some stupid choices, he never really was.
“Evie, I do not want to hear about Oli and Ace. Why the hell would you tell me that,” he asks. “To torture you” she says, and Xavier grabs her with a growl. I notice a look I don’t ever want to see in either of their eyes and I manage to get to my feet. “I think I should take Calliope with me so she isn’t as scarred as I am right now by
whatever that was.”
This time it’s Xavier that laughs. “Are you sure you’ll be alright, Oli,” my mother asks. “I’ll be fine. Besides, Della and I love spending time with her.” I step out of their wing and make my way through the pack house. It’s hard to believe how much has changed. I never thought I would consider this place my home, and now I
can’t imagine ever living anywhere else.
I know at some point we will have to move to the castle, but for now I’m enjoying living in our perfect house and working at the hospital. Well the working at the hospital is on hold for now, but I plan to go back as soon as the pups are two. Between my mother and Amber, I won’t have to worry about who will take care of them. I step out of the pack house and smile when I see a group of pups playing on the playground that Connor had
built.
He is an amazing father to Penelope and I know our dad is proud of the man he has become. I know I am.

Fofoque (Part 1)
Becca, of course, is an amazing mother and Luna. She is still my best friend. The person that helped me even when it meant going against her own mate. I walk the short distance to our home. When I step inside I can hear giggles. There is no better sound in the world than my daughter’s happiness.
When I step into the room, 1 burst out laughing. Della and Ace are seated at her little table having a tea party with her stuffed animals. My big strong Lycan has a boa on and a party hat. “Mommy, you brought Calliope. I
want to play with her,” Della squeals. “I think she is still too little to play, but you can show her your new books. You can even read her one.” She jumps up, taking off in the direction of her room.
Ace stands pulling off his accessories and making his way toward me. He extends his hands and takes Calliope from my arms. He places her in the bounce chair just as Della makes her way back toward us with a stack of books. She sits on the floor next to her and starts to read. Calliope is completely enthralled by Della
as she watches her intently.
Strong around try to wrap around me. “Were you laughing at me, my love,” Ace asks before pressing a kiss on my lips. “Of course, not. I just thought it was very s*xy seeing you play tea time with our daughter.” “S*xy,
huh? Too bad, we aren’t alone, or I’d show you s*xy” he says before pressing another kiss on my lips. This
time he deepens the kiss and I feel it down to my toes. Just as he pulls away, I feel a gush of liquid running down my legs.
Ace looks panicked and if I wasn’t so scared myself, I probably would have laughed seeing my mate, the head
pack doctor, lose his sh*t. “Ace, call my mom and Xavier to come get the girls.” He nods and rushes over to
his phone. Ten minutes later my mom and Xavier arrive. I never thought about it until now, but I want my
mom with me in the room. “Ace, are you alright with my mom being with us in the delivery room? I really want
her there,” I link him.
“Of course,” he links me back. “Mom, will you come with us? I would really like you to be with me. I know dad
will be with us in spirit, but I’d like you to hold my hand while I bring my pups into this world.” Tears stream
down her cheeks as she pulls me in for a hug. Once she releases me, Xavier moves toward me. He reaches
his hand out to me, but instead of taking it, I step forward, wrapping my arms around his middle.
“Thank you, Oli. Thank you for letting me be part of your life and getting to know the amazing woman you’ve
become. Thank you for letting me be a grandpa to your pups.” “You’re welcome, Xavier.” He releases me and
Ace takes my hand just as a pain rips through my belly. I groan and grip his hand so hard I’m afraid I’ll break
- it. Without warning, he scoops me up in his arms and makes his way toward the door with my mother hot on
his heels.
As soon as we step into the pack hospital we are swarmed by doctors and nurses. Ebony rushes over and
helps to get me on the gurney. The pain strikes again as we make it to the room. It doesn’t take long for them.
to hook me up to the machines and for the doctor to arrive. “Oli, I’m glad to see the triplets decided to make
their appearance naturally. As soon as the nurses are done, I’ll check and see how dilated you are” she says.
A few seconds later she steps up to the end of my bed. The feeling of her fingers and the contractions combined has me practically lifting myself off the table. “Alright Oli, you are already five. Hopefully you will progress quickly. I’m going to get an ultrasound machine to make sure everyone is still in a good position,” she says, stepping out of the room.
My mother steps near the head of my bed and wipes my brow with a wet cloth. “You are so strong, Oli. You are doing so good.” Ace comes to stand next to me after talking with one of the nurses and presses a kiss on my forehead. It doesn’t take long for the doctor to confirm that the pups are all head down. I pray they just

stay that way.
Three hours later I feel like I’m going to puke. The doctor rushes into the room and checks me. “It’s time, Oli You’re ten centimeters and these pups want out,” she says. “Good, I want them out,” I say through gritted teeth. My mom grabs one leg and Ace grabs the other. Ebony tells me to push for a count of ten and I do. Goddess, I feel like I’m being ripped apart. I don’t know how long I push but finally I feel my first pup leave my body. Strong cries fill the room. “Congratulations Oli and Ace, you have another daughter.” She sets her on my chest and tears flow down my cheeks.
“She is beautiful” I say, and everyone agrees. Pain grips me again and Ebony takes my pup to clean her up. “Alright Oli, push again.” Five pushes later and my first son is born. His screams are just as powerful as his sisters. “He is beautiful too” I say as I look at the little boy lying on my chest. “He has your nose,” Ace says, his own tears streaming down his cheeks. It doesn’t take long for him to be whisked away and another contraction to rip through me.
“One more Oli and then you can rest. I know you’re exhausted, but you are at the finish line. Give me a few more good pushes” she says. “You got this, Olivia. You are amazing,” Ace says. I offer him a reassuring smile even though I feel like I can’t do it anymore. “You got this, Oli. You are the strongest woman I know,” my
mother says.
I take a deep breath and push with everything I have left in me. I’m not sure how many pushes it takes, but when the last pup leaves my body, my whole body seems to let go. In fact, everything around me starts to fade away. The sound of a pup’s cries is the last thing I hear before darkness surrounds me.
