Stacey's POV 

"Baby, what are you doing?" Ray asked when he saw me taking off my clothes.

We're currently in the woods, though we didn't go deep into the woods.

"I wanna shift!" I reply.

He stops me and glares at me.

"No!"

"Why no? I said we should come out for a run.. how am I supposed to run if I don't shift?"

He ignores me and takes off his shirt, he hangs it on a tree... I huff and starts taking off my blouse again.

He stops me again.

"You can't shift now that you're pregnant, what if something happens to our pup!"

Right, I didn't think of that.

"Then how am I gonna run with you?"

"You aren't gonna run... I'll just give you a ride!"

"A ride?" 

He takes off his pants and nods.

"Yeah, you said you wanna see Zeus... How about you let him give you a ride?" He asked.

I nod quickly, my brothers always carry me on their backs and run super fast... 

I wanna know if Zeus can go any faster than them...but I'm guessing he's gonna be way faster. 

"Zeus is so damn happy right now, if you can imagine how he's wagging his tail right now!"

His eyes flashes yellow, I guess Zeus can't wait to take control...I can imagine him wagging his tail happily.

I hear bones cracking and in a flash Ray's replaced by Zeus i gasped.

The first time he appeared in front of me, I was scared... So scared that I wanted nothing to do with Ray.

But now staring at him makes me feel so safe! I admire him now... I squat and pats his head.

He's standing at a 4ft, his jet black fur sparkling, his yellow eyes staring at me.. his tongue hanging out. 

"You're gorgeous, Wolfie!" I said.

Zeus draws his eyebrows together... that's if he have one...and glares at me.

"What? I'm complimenting you!"

He growls and turns away from me... he's sulking because I called him gorgeous.

I turn his head back to me and scratches the back of his ears slowly.

He purrs in satisfaction and licks my cheek... I laugh.

"Can you understand me in your wolf form?"

He nods...I roll my eyes.

"But you're gorgeous!"

"I'm not gorgeous...I'm hot" I heard his voice in my mind link.

He look just like a cute overgrown dog right now... I hear a scoff in my mind.

"Mate, I'm the big bad Alpha, I'm not a dog" He said.

I laughed at him...I forgot he can hear my thoughts. I quickly block him from my thoughts.

"Whatever you say, overgrown dog!"

He growls lowly and snuggles his snout in my neck... His tongue licking my mark.

"Get on my back let me show you the world in a different light"

He crouches down and I got on his back... I imagined his fur to be soft but I didn't know they'll actually be as soft as this.

"Hold onto me" He commands.

I nod and held onto him as tight as I can. He gets up slowly and adjusts me on his back.

"Are you ok?" He asked.

"Yeah"

"Can we go now?"

"Yes" With that he took off.

The wind blow past my ears harshly as I scream delightfully... trees pass by in a very fast blur.

Dylan and Josh runs fast but I swear, they're no way near Zeus... he runs through the woods as if he's familiar with every turn.

My screams are mixed with both excitement and fear... sometimes he might be headed straight to a tree and I'll be so scared that we'll crash.

But he'll dodge the tree in the last second.. that's what brings about the excitements. 

"Baby, are you happy?" Zeus mind linked me as he's headed for another tree.

My eyes grow wide.

"Watch the tree!" I scream.

He chuckles in our link and dodges the tree.

"Don't be scared, I can't let us crash"

I didn't reply.

"Tell me, how are you feeling right now?"

"I'm so darn happy!" I scream.

"Oh, yeah" he said increasing his pace. 

Writer's POV 

King's office...!

The king growls glaring at a small note in his hand... He angrily throws it across the office.

"Yoh, yoh, what's troubling you?" The queen ask walking in.

She picks the note and reads it, she rolls her eyes and throws it in a waste bin.

"I thought you said to wait until Lorenzo strike, then why are you getting worked up now?"

He sighs and throws his head back on the chair.

"Just staring at that stupid threat note makes me angry!" He replies.

"Well, I believe you already have a war strategy planned already... I have a feeling that Lorenzo is planning something big...and I feel it's gonna happen sooner than later!"

"Yeah, of course. I can't wait for him to come kill me, I have plans and I'll show Ray tomorrow... He should get his boys ready!"

The queen nods thoughtfully, a comfortable silence swallow them until the king breaks it.

"How is Stacey? Why did she pass out?" 

The queen glares at him and he raises his hands up.

"Don't give me that look, according to the messenger... Stacey wasn't there when he went to stop Ray's punishment!"

She breaks into a smile at his frightened expression.

"She's fine!"

"That's good! That's good!" He mutters quietly.

"Oh, and it's confirmed, she's pregnant"

She holds her face in her hands and giggles excitedly.

"I can't believe I'm gonna be a grand mother so soon... I can finally have someone to play with... Someone to give me headaches everyday... Someone to..... "

A knock on the door cuts her off. She turns towards the door, but she shuts it while coming in..so she didn't see who it is.

She sniffs the air and turns back to her husband with a frown.

"Did you sent for him?"

"No!" He shakes his head.

"Then what is he doing here?"

He shrugs.

"Maybe to tell us another fake prophecy!"

The queen huffs and crosses her arms in her chest...her husband reaches forward and straighten her frown lines.

"My queen, act normal around him...I wanna invite him in and listen to what he have to say this time!" He said and winks at her.

She scoffs grumpily. 

"Come in!" He invites him.

The door opens slowly and the seer walks in, he stops in front of the desk and bows at the queen.

"Your majesty!"

He turn to the king.

"Your majesty!"

The king acts surprise and tells him to stand up, the seer stand upright.

"Yoh, what's Mr seer doing here?" The queen asked.

Though she tries to act normal but one can tell from her tone that she's angry.

The seer didn't mind her tone.. not that he can do anything to her... He turns to the king.

"Alpha king, I have something to discuss with you!"

"Hmm, is it very important?" The king asked.

"Yes, Alpha King"

"Hmm..." The king turns to his wife but she's not even looking his way.

She's busy glaring daggers at the seer... The king clears his throat and shows him to a seat.

The seer shakes his head. "I'd rather stand"

"I said sit and speak to me!"

He nods and slowly sits down.

"So... What do you wanna tell me?"

The seer hesitate a little before he begins.

"Alpha king, I......."

Stacey's POV 

Zeus slowed down as he gets near a lake, he stops by the side and crouches down.

"Get down slowly" He mind linked me.

I hop off his back and pats his back.

"Thank you, Zeus!" I said and flashed him a smile

He gives me a wolfish grin in return...or I think he gives me a wolfish grin.

I turn and take a look around, I'm awestruck at the view here...across the lake there's a waterfall.

I turn back to Zeus.

"Can you please give Ray control back?" I asked him.

"Trying to get rid of me so soon?" He mind linked in a jealous tone.

I shake my head and I hear him chuckles through our link...ok, I don't understand why Zeus is jealous of Ray.

They're both the same, aren't they?

"Zeus, I've spend some time with you...I think I should enjoy this view with Ray too"

He huffs and in a flash, Ray sitting in front of me...naked! I quickly cover my eyes and he laughs.

"I thought someone wanted to see me?"

"Yeah, but when you're naked!"

He laughs again.

"Are you being shy?" He asked.

I didn't reply, I simply turn away from him.

"Baby, we've had sex more than once and you've seen me...why are you being shy now?"

I did an eye roll, if only he knows I'm hiding away from him because I don't wanna jump him in the woods.

"Are you gonna wear some clothes?" I grit out.

"Fine! Fine! I'm clothed!" He said.

I turn and opens my eyes slowly, he's really wore a basketball truck and black t-shirt.

"Where did you get those?" I asked.

"I always keep some of my clothes here, in case I come for runs and decides to rest here!"

I nod...he sits next to me on the ground and pulls me closer, hugging me.

"The view here is awesome, do you come here often?"

"Hmm, yeah, when I'm angry and wanna cool off!"

I nod. This place is really quiet and I think I'd love to come here to read sometimes.

"This is my lair and you're the second girl I've brought here!"

"Second girl?!" I exclaims and move away from him.

He nods, I frown, a very bitter feeling forming at the pit of my stomach.

How can he bring another girl to his special place?!

"Second girl?!" I repeat. "Who's the first?!" 

He studies my expression and smirks, he leans forward and pecks my lips.

"Relax, baby, the first girl I brought here is Anna!"

"Anna?"
