The Black Alder Series (Books 1-3)

Elena POV Will you marry me? Roland asked.

I can’t contain the happiness I feel right now that this man, my beautiful, beautiful mate, is asking me to marry him. Last night, I was going to tell him about the kids, but I wanted to strengthen our bond first, and I missed him. He seemed to have a worried look on his face. I’m sure I look like I’m having a stroke right now. “YESSSSSSSSS,” I blurt out, and he grins really hard, lifting me off the bed and into his arms. I jumped off him, jumping for joy like a child, then jumped back on him. “Okay, okay,” he says, laughing. He leads us down to the bed and kisses me. I can tell he is trying to take things further, but I know he needs to know. I mindlink Serene, and she tells me she and Nate have our kids sleeping. I was thrilled to have them back home safe, and even though I knew they were unharmed by Serene, it didn’t stop me from going to check on them and kiss them before I asked Roland to come to the room last night. I just realized that he doesn’t know. “Roland,” I told him. “There is something I need to show you. Roland POV “Roland,” “There is something I need to show you. Elena says “Is everything okay?” I asked her. She took my hand. “Just come on,” she says. I took it and followed her to the second floor. My heart is racing since I’m not sure what’s about to happen. Blazes are bouncing around in my head. What’s your problem? I asked him. You will see, you will see, he says, still bouncing. Okay, now I’m concerned. Elena knocks on the door, and Serene opens it. She took in Elena’s fresh look. “I like it,” she says, and they laugh and hug. Elena walks into the room, past Serene, and beacons for me to come in. She sits on the bed. Nate and Serene put two babies in her lap, and now my heart is racing. Did she adopt kids? I ask myself, but I know that’s not the answer. These two boys. These adorable little boys are the same ones in my vision. I can tell after they both open their eyes and look at me at the same time. They both have jet-black hair. One of them has her eyes; the other one has mine. Oh, my god “Roland, meet Aiden and Ethan,” she says, kissing them both on the head. “Our sons”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

I staggered back and let out the breath I realized I had been holding. Nate held me up.

“Well, say something, bro,’ he laughed. But I can’t. I don’t know what to say. My babies. Those are my kids. My fucking boys. I’m a daddy. I can’t believe I am a fucking daddy. I rushed over to her and dropped to my knees, kissing my son’s head, then kissing her head. Elena has blessed me so much, and now I find out she has given me a family. I can’t be more thankful than I am right now. I sit on the bed and let them put both boys on my lap.

They start hitting each other. Already fighters, like their daddy, I grin. “They will have a princess to join them soon, Serene says, and she rubs her stomach as Nate wraps his arm around her. No FUCKING WAY SERENE Elena screams and hugs her and Nate. I held on to my sons and shook Nate’s hand, congratulating them. Sometime later, we come down, and the whole pack is waiting for us as we share the happy news. 7 months later

Elena Pov I’m looking at myself in the mirror. My wedding dress is simply remarkable. I decided to keep it simple and wear a mermaid-style dress that shows my back. It has beautiful lace that cuts from shoulder to shoulder. My hair has been braided into a bun with curls that fall out of it. I decided to make Serene my maid of honor. I didn’t need a bridesmaid, as we kept the wedding small. I don’t want all of the attention. It’s just my brother’s pack and ours. I didn’t let Serene do too much since she was carrying her little girl. Maggie has been a huge help. I look outside. Shawn is chasing after the boys. Since they started walking, it’s been nonstop. They are very precious, though. He thinks that since they come from Lycan blood, they may shift as early as five years old, since that is the shifting age for male Lycans. We will have to see. We decided to do an outdoor ceremony near the forest. It was the perfect spot.

The ceremony starts, and everyone takes their place. I asked my brother to give me away. I know it’s what my dad would have wanted. I feel him watching me. Proud. The ceremony starts, and everyone walks down the aisle, taking their places. I grab onto my brother’s arm as I prepare to meet the man on the other end, whom I will spend the rest of my life with. He is wearing an all-white suit with a silver tie. His black hair is gelled back, and his gold eyes melt my soul with each step. It takes my breath away. Once my brother gives me away, I step in front of my own personal God. I keep my eyes low and blush. Somehow, he still makes me blush. Roland Pov It took everything I had not to scoop her up and kiss her. She looks so fucking beautiful in her dress right now, coming down the aisle. How in the world did I get so lucky to be blessed with this gorgeous beauty? This Goddess. I silently thank the moon goddess for deeming me worthy of having her daughter, and I feel a warm feeling pierce my heart. As if she is saying you’re welcome. It makes me feel happy. When Elena gets in front of me, I can see her blushing. I lifted her chin to me and shook my head. She knows I love to stare into her eyes. We said our vows to each other, and I kissed her, which had many cheers and photos following. What a beautiful life! Elena Pov After the ceremony, everyone partied. I danced with my band a few times. It still feels weird to say. I’ve been through so much, but I wouldn’t change a thing. I got a wonderful husband from it and beautiful children. I decided to stay Luna of the pack and give my brother full reign over his pack. After I showed him the vision with Dad, he was beyond emotional, and we’ve gotten close since then. I’m looking around for my twins. They are running around people’s legs. He catches my eye, comes, and scoops me up. “Ready for your honeymoon, Mrs. Black?” he asks, smiling and taking me to the house. “Yes, sir,” I replied.
