Chapter 25
The Alpha's Special Mate
Jace's POV
It's been a hectic few months what with Skylar's pregnancy progressing
and us coming up to our baby girl coming into this world. We have also
been experiencing increasing rogue attacks and that stupid Vance
bastard has been sending love notes and threats at a steady pace
taunting and threatening us. Everyone's been on edge but I was finally
able to relax a little bit and have some alone time with Sky so we have a
nice quiet dinner and then when we were putting our dishes into the
dishwasher she turned to me and said something that made me very so
happy and excited and a little scared
"I think my water just broke" She says to me with fear and excitement in
her eyes. The next thing I know everything went by in a blink of an eye.
Me getting her and the babyâs things and then the trip to the pack
hospital. My helping Skylar through her labor as best as I can as she
squeezed the living daylights out of my hand. I thought she was going
to break it with how much force she was using. The next thing I know I
hear crying and see my beautiful baby girl. She was so pretty with her
black and blonde hair, beautiful facial features and her gorgeous light
blue eyes. Her hair was a mixture of mine and her mothers before she
shifted, with Skylar's facial features and my light blue eyes.
Skylar fell asleep while I was holding our daughter. I was sitting there
for a couple hours when Lucas, Jasper, Lucy, Amber, and Alex all came
into the room wanting to see the little one. They loved her form the
moment they laid their eyes on her. I ordered everyone some food
seeing as no one has eaten anything today plus I knew Skylar would be
hungry from all the energy she expelled giving birth to our amazing
little girl. As I was walking in with the food I noticed Skylar awake
staring at everyone as they took turns holding and arguing over our
daughter which made me smile. I give Skylar her food and everyone
else their as I take my daughter back to hold while everyone else eats.
As everyone ate they all chit chatted about different things until they
finally wanted to know what we had finally decided to name our
daughter. I look over to Skylar and she nods her head at me to tell
them finally.
"Well me and Sky finally decided on a name a couple weeks ago. So
without further ado I would like to present to you" I stop making it
dramatic and to make everyone stew a little longer with anticipation to
what I was going to say. I could hear my mate giggling at me for being
so dramatic about just telling them her name.
"Tell us alreadyâ they all exclaim at once making me and Skylar laugh
"Okay okay we decided to name her Lilith Ophelia Miller. You can call
her Lilith or Lily for short.â I finally tell them
"Awwwwwe" the girls say in unison smiling with adoration and love at
her.
"It suits her" Jasper says while Alex and Lucas nodded their agreements.
I'm sitting in my office waiting for Skylar to be discharged when a pale
faced and grim looking Lucas came walking into my office with a piece
of paper. I look up at him and see how pale he looks and just watch as
he comes in and sits in one of the chairs in front of my desk before
handing the piece of paper over to me with mechanical movements.
"What is that?" I ask him curiously
" found it on the front door after I came back from my run and came
straight here after seeing what it said.â He says paling even more as he
hands me the paper.
I take the piece of paper from him and when I read what it says I sit
frozen to the spot reading the few words over and over again in my
mind.
I AM COMING FOR YOU SKYLAR'
As I glared at the words written on the paper my vision started to blur
as I started to see red. I was livid that this psychopath was trying to take
my mate. I would never ever let anyone have her she was mine, she was
also the mother of my child.
"Did you find anything out about who this Vance person is?" I ask my
beta
"No nothing has come up yet he has hidden his existence very well" he
said looking at the floor
âAlright let me know if you hear anything about him even the littlest
thing could help usâ I tell him. As we were sitting there Skylar came into
my office and sat in my lap as she put the monitor down. I wrapped my
arms around her and nuzzled my face into her neck and inhaled her
scent to calm myself down. Once I was calm I dismissed Lucas and he
left to try and find out anything about this Vance person. I sit with Sky
on my lap for a little while longer before I pull away slightly and grab
her and sit her on my desk in front of me so I could look at her. I stared
at her beautiful face for a little while before I opened my mouth and
spoke.
"There was another note found pinned to our front door" I say to her.
"W-what d-did i-it s-ssay?" She asks stuttering scared. I hand her the
note and watch as she grabs it with shaking hands. As she reads it her
eyes go wide and she starts shaking in fear of what is to come.
"Why is this happening to us?" She says as she starts to sob as tears
pour down her cheeks.
"Hey, hey it's going to be okay I will not let anything happen to you or
to Lilith. I will kill this bastard before he can even come close to you." I
say to her trying as I wrap her in a tight hug, trying to comfort her as
she sobs into my chest. We sit like this for a little while before Lilith
starts to cry and Sky leaves to go and attend to out baby girl, I on the
other hand have to come up with a plan to keep Sky and Lily safe from
this threat. I mind link Jasper and Alex to see if they got a hold of the
witch that they knew who did work for us in the past.
âJasper, Alex can you both come to my office pleaseâ I link them
'On our way Alphaâ They say back to me. After a few minutes they come
in and I tell them about the new note and ask them if they heard back
from Ava the witch.
"Has you heard anything back from Ava?" I ask them. They look at each
other and then down at the floor before one of them answers back.
"No we haven't heard anything from her" Jasper said
"When we went to her house to see if she was there but someone got
there before us and killed her" Alex finished
"Damn, I'm sorry guys I knew she was your friend and she did a lot for
the packâ I say back to them before dismissing them. I sat there for a
little while longer thinking of something, anything I could do to protect
my family and my pack from this monster. After coming up with
basically nothing I get up and go to Lilith's room and I see Skylar sitting
in the rocking chair staring out the window as she rocks our baby back
and forth while she hums to her as she sleeps. I stand in the doorway
admiring the two loves of my life and I think about how I would do
anything for them.
