Chapter 126


    The Council by Cooper (Jara & Mason)


    Jara


    The next morning, Mason is beyond attentive. I warned him that I was nauseous but it’s already better,


    havingid on Mason all night. He had the kitchen send up some cr*ckers, and before I get out of bed, I


    eat a few.


    Title of the document


    Mason follows me into the shower, nuzzling me, bathing me, in general pampering me in every way


    possible.


    When we go downstairs walking into the dining room hand in hand, I shouldn’t be surprised, but Mason


    immediately stands in front of the room.


    “Mason.” I hiss at him.


    “Yes,e stand with me, my love.” He says, taking my hand and pulling me up beside him.


    “That’s not what I meant.” I whisper to him, but he’s not listening. I can tell through our bond that he’s


    beyond excited and can’t wait to share our good news with our pack.


    “I have an announcement to make.” He says and the room goes quiet. He looks down at me and his


    eyes are filled with so much. love. “Your Luna has informed me that she is pregnant with our pup.”


    The room erupts with howls, cheers, people pounding on the tables and the chairs. Mason leans down


    to kiss me softly, before I lean my head against his chest, looking out over my happy pack members.


    When the noise level finally dies down, the questions begin.


    “When will we know if it’s a boy or a girl?”


    “How far along are you?”


    “Do we have a due date? We need to n a party?”


    The pack’s excitement is contagious, and I’m thrilled that they are all so happy. Mason raises his hand.


    “Your Luna and I will be making an appointment to see the pack doctor.” He nods in his direction, and


    the pack members begin pping him on the back, as if congratting him on being the doctor that


    gets to provide the pack with great news.


    “We will keep you informed as we get information and I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that sparring with


    Jara is now off limits.” Everyoneughs at that.


    “On a serious note, I’m also sure I don’t have to tell you that now, more than ever, we need to be


    diligent and ensure that Typhon does not gain entry into our pack. We flushed him out over the


    weekend, but that only makes him more dangerous until we find him.”


    They flushed Typhon out? Mason didn’t tell me that. Of course, we were too busy having our own


    celebration, but it sounds like we have some things to talk about. “I will also be having an alliance


    meetingter today and after that, I will have more news to share with all of you. But, in the meantime,


    know that we have some friction with some other packs. We will be putting in extra safeguards to


    ensure that they do not have ess to our pack. I’ll be giving a list of those packs’ names to Beta


    Elijah and our Lead Warrior so we can monitor their potential threats.


    Any questions?” He asks, still holding on to me.


    “Okay then, it’s a day for celebration! Dr. Johns, pleasee see me.” He says and the room erupts


    into cheers again.


    We make an appointment to see Dr. Johnster this afternoon, before we sit down to eat.


    Breakfast is a festive affair. Everyone is excited and wants toe congratte us. When we finally


    head out of the dining hall, the whole pack is buzzing. “What time is the alliance call today?” I ask as


    we head back to Mason’s office. “Another hour. Did you want to sit in?” He asks me.


    “Maybe, but why don’t you tell me about Typhon before the call?” I tell him.


    He tells me about finding his den and putting patrols on it to watch for him, but no one has seen him.


    “So you think he’s watching the pack, watching me?” I ask. Instinctively, my hand goes to my stomach.


    I haven’t known I was pregnant very long, but I already feel very protective of my little one.


    “I do, and that’s why I’ll be putting a guard on you whenever you aren’t with me. Please don’t fight me


    on this. Before you were pregnant, you could shift and run or at least fight in your wolf form. Now, you’ll


    not only be stuck in your human form, but you’ll be trying to protect our pup, so you won’t be able to


    fight at full force.”


    “I won’t fight you. I want to protect our little one just as much as you do.” I tell him. Hees over,


    lifting me out of my seat before sitting down, tucking me into hisp. “I thought I understood Asher’s


    protectiveness before with Mignon, but I didn’t. Knowing that I now have the two most precious people


    in my life right here, it’s intolerable that I wouldn’t be able to keep you safe. So, I’m warning, you now,


    Jara. I’m going to be protective, probably overbearing, at least while we have two threats against us.


    Please be patient with me but understand that I won’t back down. Your safety and the safety of our pup


    is everything to me, and I will do whatever it takes to keep you safe, even if that means you and I have


    to argue about it.”


    I roll my eyes at him. “Fine, keep me safe. Keep our pup safe. Twist my arm. But make Lewis my


    primary guard while we’re in the pack. He’s doing great, barely showing any signs of feral-fever and I’d


    like to keep it that way.”

    “That’s fine. Elijah said he was impressed with him over the weekend. But I’ll need to add a couple


    more so they can take shifts and still gets some sleep. Anyone else that you specifically want or don’t


    want on your guard duty?” He asks me and we talk about it, deciding who my guards will be until it’s


    time for our call.


    Seth starts the call, weing everyone and letting us all know that there is a lot to discuss. Before he


    starts, he asks if anyone has anything to say before we start.


    Mason jumps in. “I do.” He says, nuzzling my neck. He moved to a new seat, but he still has me in his


    lap. “Jara let me know that she’s pregnant, so now three of our mates are pregnant.”


    The Alphas all cheer for my pregnancy until Alpha Antonio interrupts. “Actually, all four of our mates are


    pregnant. Annabel let me know when she returned home this weekend that she too is pregnant.”


    We all cheer again. This is excellent news. “Have you learned the s*e*x of your pup, Seth?” Mason


    asks him.


    “We have, we went this morning. We are having a little girl!” More cheers from the group. It’s a beautiful


    day, knowing that we’re all happily mated, pregnant and at least two of us will be having girls.”


    I know it must be the hormones already kicking in, but I begin crying happy tears that Mason gently


    wipes away.
