Bria was once again pregnant, and it was only a matter of time before Smith would have a younger sibling. Don urged her to remain at their pack and rest due to her condition. However, Bria was resolute; she wished to support Jessica. The profound bond between them is likely beyond our comprehension. Nothing in existence could sever their connection; one can only attempt to do so.
Present were Mother, Father, Alpha Darius, Liza, Jessica’s Mother, and Jessica’s Father. I maintained a cordial rapport with Jessica’s mother, yet I have never progressed beyond a mere ‘hello’ with her father. The man appeared to possess a heart of stone and seemed resolute in his refusal to acknowledge me as Jessica’s mate. Nevertheless, I intend to afford him the time he requires to acclimatise to my presence. I will persist in my efforts to gain a modicum of his recognition. While we need not
Three years have elapsed, and we continue to rely on one another for affection, assistance, and connection. I never anticipated reaching this point, yet we have. When Jessica delivers our child…
At that moment, I was interrupted by a piercing cry of an infant. I became pale, attempting to remain composed, but with everyone already celebrating and embracing one another, I realised the truth: I had just become a father.
Tears streamed down my face incessantly, and moments later, when the doctor approached and congratulated me with a handshake, I remained in a stupor.
He turned to depart, and that was when I was compelled to regain my composure.
“Doctor, may I visit her?”I enquired, hoping fervently that he would accept my proposal. I merely wish to ascertain the well-being of Jessica and our child firsthand.
“Certainly, accompany me,” I followed the Doctor, and upon reaching the location of the others, each embraced me individually, with the exception of Jessica’s father, naturally.
However, as he gazed at me, the typical arrogance and contempt were absent from his expression. Instead, it was a sorrowful glance, accompanied by a hint of respect. My heart rejoiced at this, and I reciprocated with a little nod.
“Congratulations, my friend,” Lucas embraced me briefly and firmly.
Thank you, my friend. “I shall return shortly.”
“Certainly, proceed.”
I accompanied the Doctor into another room, where she lay on the bed, cradling the infant, swathed in a blanket.
She appeared utterly fatigued yet vibrant. I could not restrain the tears streaming down my face. The doctor departed, leaving us alone, and I stood in place, absorbing the remarkable scene.
She gazed at me and smiled, “Hello,” she said.
“Hello,” I replied with a grin, still tearful. I approached them and enquired, “How are you feeling?”
“Exhausted, yet content,” she remarked, as tears streamed down her face. This was an intensely emotional time for us.
“Am I permitted?” I extended my hand towards the infant.
“Certainly.” “You must sit first,” she said, and I took a seat in the chair adjacent to her bed. She delicately handed me the infant, and it was the most exquisite sight I had ever encountered.
Is it a girl?
Affirmative.
“Her eyes are captivating, reminiscent of her mother’s,” I reflected, gazing at my kid with profound affection, envisioning the suitors who would seek her favour. She is destined to be among the most beautiful girls in our pack and the werewolf realm at large.
“She will possess a heart as expansive as her father’s,” Jessica remarked, intertwining our fingers.
I gently kissed the back of her hand, squeezing it affectionately, “Thank you, Jessica, for this.” You entered my life and imparted significance. I can never express my gratitude sufficiently.

“No, refrain from speaking.” You are excessively fatigued. “Allow me to speak,” I stated, and she fell silent, “I have committed numerous transgressions in the past, Jessica.” Nevertheless, the lunar deity has nevertheless bestowed you upon me. All the obstacles we encountered and the tears we shed were justified just because of you. Should I harbour any regrets, it would be the absence of my role as your first mate…
Jim-
“I am earnest.” Had I the ability to reverse time, I would have discovered you earlier. I would have loved you as you deserve to be loved. However, I harbour no regrets, since I intend to dedicate the remainder of my life to adoring you, revering the earth you tread upon, and demonstrating to the world that you are the sovereign of my heart.
“There is no necessity for you to undertake all of that, Jim.” “Simply assure me that you will never relinquish me and our affection.”
“I shall never relinquish my hold, Jessica.” You are an intriguing enigma I wish to dedicate my entire life to deciphering. I adore you, Jessica Joez; the divine is aware of my affection.
The End
