Chapter 52Epilogue

Daphne’s Point of View
Scarlet and Theo have been back home
now for a few months. I am enjoying the bond that we have developed, and life has settled down. Now
the pack is getting ready for their commitment ceremony and I could not be happier for the both of
them. I thank the Moon Goddess every night for blessing me with my life now. It is hard for me to even
imagine my life before Caleb.
Theo has developed a rigorous training program that has helped me develop my special ability more.
As it turns out it seems I have the ability to project a protective barrier of sorts around people and
objects. Of course, Theo was more than happy to tell Caleb that his hunches
about wolves with special abilities has not
failed him yet. 4
I was very proud of myself for helping to develop some of my own training regimen. Theo was so
impressed with my thoughts that I have taken up an active role in helping with training of our other
pack members. I was overjoyed that Theo
took my advice and that those of us
whom have displayed special abilities have some training time together. To this day we have not heard
of any other packs having unique members like ours. Although Theo suspects that Marcus’s pack mayhave a few members with
special abilities, we have not been able to confirm that suspicion yet.
I finish getting ready and head
downstairs to meet Scarlet. We are going into town to hopefully get her a dress for her mating
ceremony. She was adamant that she did not want a big party, but
Caleb was not hearing it. As he liked to
point out to her, she brought most of her previous pack with her and everyone
needed a fresh start.
Things were a little crazy at first getting everyone acclimated to how different Caleb was from their
previous Alpha, but
our members welcomed everyone with
open arms. Houses were quickly built to accommodate the newest members, and
even a few destined mates found each
other. Overall things have been really
great for our pack.
“You ready to go?” Scarlet asks me as I
hit the bottom of the stairs.
“Yeah I am all set, lets go get you adress.” I am excited for her and to be
doing this with her. She links her arm
through mine and we head out. I felt a little strange on the drive into town.
“Are you alright, you look a little pale?”
Scarlet asks me.
“Yeah I am just a bit queasy, I guess car sick.” I tell her. I notice that Scarlet keeps watching me out of
the corner of her eye, but soon enough we make it to the first shop. I settle myself into one of the seats
as the sales lady prepares dresses for
Scarlet to try on.
“Excuse me where is your bathroom.” All of a sudden, I had an urgent need to use. the facilities, and I
asked the sales lady as she was loading more dresses into the dressing room. She points me towards
the back of the store and I quickly locate the sign. When I get back Scarlet is tapping her foot waiting
for me.
“You are pregnant.” She blurts out of
nowhere.
“No, I am not, I just had to go to the
bathroom.” I explain to her.
“Really Daphne, sick on the car ride, andI have noticed that you have been using the bathroom a lot lately. Have you and Caleb been using
protection?” I feel like I am in an inquisition.
“Well no but I mean I think I would know
if I were pregnant.” I tell her.
“Hmmm well I think you should go see
the pack doctor and find out for sure.” Scarlet gives me a long hard look before disappearing to try on
the dresses. Her words leave me to wonder if I could be
pregnant. I have not noticed any weight gain, but I have also been using the
bathroom more frequently. I have also
never gotten car sick before. I think I will make an appointment with the doctor
just to make sure. Scarlet finally finds the
dress she wants, and we head home.
During the car ride I think about Caleb
and how far we have come. I rest a hand
on my stomach and imagine what life
would be like with kids. 13
The slave mate that became a Luna, could
she also be a mother?
