Chapter 16

Tristen comes over to me and sees her.

"Hello Tara, I wasn't aware of the situation between your mate and your Luna." He says

"What?! You mean my soon to be ex husband had a werewolf mate also?!" I shout them realize I need to lower my voice

"I'm so sorry Bex. I did t realize the situation at hand. Seems Tara didn't inform me like she should have of her Human mate." he says and Tara looks down.

"Does he know?" I ask Tara

"Trenton knows I'm a werewolf, yes. He doesn't know of the threat but I'm sure since you're Alpha's mate that he'll be protected." She says a smug like

"Weol, Bex and the children are under my protection. But you and your mate are not. Well not any longer. You went against pack rules and broke up a marriage. You know the consequences for disobeying your Alpha and packs laws. We have a separate plain for this reason and many others." Tristen says

Tara looks up at him nervously.

"I could t help it Alpha. He's MY mate not hers! He should have been with me all along! Those little bitches of hers will not be my kids. They are abominations and I can't believe you're okay with having her after she's already had his children. He is my mate!" She says bitterly.

What?! My what?!

Next thing I knew I had slapped her. Oh no! I slapped a pregnant woman! What the fu k is wrong with me?!

"I'm sorry. I mean, I meant to hit you but I forgot you were pregnant. But my children will never be around you again." I say.

I need to get my kids from Trenton asap and make sure she'll never see them again.

She goes to slap me but Tristen stops her and growls loudly shaking the entire building.

"You will not disrespect your Luna any further." He says

"I'm sorry Alpha but she hit me first

You saw it. You all saw it! She's just jealous that her husband threw her aside for me, his true MATE and he no longer wants their spoiled little bitch offsprings. He told me he only wants OUR pups." She snaps and smirks like she's won a prize

Pups?

"Tommy, Jake, take her to the holding cells and keep her there until I figure out how to handle this situation." He says

They both reply with "Yes, Alpha"

Tristen turns to me and hugs me.

"I'm so sorry. You shouldn't have to go through any of this. We need to go back the Human plain and make sure the children are safe. We will bring them here if they aren't, okay?" He says while looking at me

"Okay, let's go now. Like, right now!" I say and start walking towards the elevator.

We step in and he presses the garage button.

Once we're run the vehicle, Tabby hops in with us.

"You'll need someone to open to the portal. It's late so it's more than likely not open." She says

Tristen nods and we take off. I should have changed clothes.

"So, Trenton knows about werewolves and had a mate. I just don't believe what Tara said though. He's always been such a great daddy." I say

"We'll, see, not all mates can handle the thought of their mate being with someone before them. Many wolves aren't offended by it any more but there are still some that believe that way." Tabby continues

"In the early days, when mates found each other, if they had a previous lover or children, the mate would kill them. Werewolves are very territorial but that has been against wolf law for ages now." Tabby finishes

"What the fuck?! She want my kids dead?" I scream

"I'll fucking kill her if she harms them" I scream breathing labored like a maniac now

"No one will hurt your children or you. If Trenton is aware of our plain and pack, then he is aware I am the Alpha. We will have a long discussion once we arrive." Tristen says

He's gripping the steering wheel so tight his knuckles are white.

I feel I should touch his arm, so I do. I rub my hand along his arm and he visibly relaxes.

"The portal isn't open so let me open it." Tabby says from the back seat

She waves her hands around then clenches her fist.

"It's open." She says

Tristen gasses on the truck an just like earlier, I close my eyes and brace myself.

"You can open your eyes. We're 7 minutes from your children." He says

I open my eyes and nod

I look out the windows at the familiar area. I hope my babies are okay. He wouldn't hurt them. He just wouldn't. Maybe she said all of that to scare me? How did they even meet?

My mind is racing a million miles and hour when I notice we've pulled up.

I swing the door open before it's parked and run up the my old home.

I sling the door open, no time for knocking. I don't see anyone. Where are my kids?!

I run to Trish's room and nothing. I run to the playroom, nothing. I run to my old room, and there they all are. In bed, asleep. I run over to the kids and make sure everyone is breathing. Once I confirm they are, I tap Trenton on his shoulder. He awakens startled that I'm standing there.

"We need to speak in the living room, now." I whisper to not wake the babies.

He gets up and throws a shirt on and follows me to the living area. Tabby and Tristen are standing by the door.

"Bex, what the fuck is going on?" Trenton demands

Before I could speak, Tristen has started to lowly grown and his eyes have turned to the red rust color.

Trenton jumps back but tries to remain composed.

"This is Tristen, the Alpha of Crest pack and this is Tabby, she is the mate of Beta Tommy." I introduce.

"How do you know about them Bex?" He asks

"Apparently, the same way you do." Tristen says

"Bex is my mate. Although, she refused me until everything happed a few days ago with Tara, my pack member." Tristen spits

Trenton starts fumbling over words.

I need to explain.

"Tristen came to me in a dream realm. Tabby's coven was informed of a threat from Vexile. So, werewolves were allowed to meet their mates via dream realm to warn them. When Tristen told me, I refused to leave you. But allowed him to come to this realm and protect our children." I say

"After everything came out with you and Tara, I made plans to go meet the pack while the children were with you this weekend. But I saw an unexpected person. Tara. She informed me and the whole pack of you not wanting our children, "little spoiled bitches" as she referred to them. After Tristen put her in a holding cell, we came to get my children to insure no harm is to come to them." I say

"What?! Why would you make up these things about Tara? She would never cause any harm to our children! She most certainly would never call them that!" Trenton says getting defensive

"The kids are staying here with me!" He adds

Tristen has started growling and Trenton is bowing up.

"Trust me, this ain't a fight you'll win. But, is it possible Trenton can come back with us so he can speak with Tara and find out what she plans for my children?" I ask

"I think that would be a good solution. As long as the children are safe." Tristen says.
