Stronger by Ang Chris

Chapter 68 

I got up early everyday that week. They were coming and it was time for our warriors to understand what it meant to fight for our pack. 

I had them run five miles every morning and then we sparred. I had them all practice their archery, their sword skills. I had them exercise their cores, their arms, and their legs as well. 

At night I’d get them up and we’d shift run again and spar again, but I didn’t stop there. 

These wolves were not against using the human technology to help them get the upper hand. We didn’t use guns traditionally but I made sure they all had known how. We brushed up on our abilities and by the end of the week I had. everyone hitting the target and a good amount that I’d trust to sharp shoot need be. 

I stated having our wolves stand guard beyond our walls in camouflage. Annette wasn’t allowed to leave the house once the moon was high. 

I know my wife wasn’t one to do as she was ordered but she was sortired now that she didn’t mind confinement. 

My mother on the other hand refused going to the moon pool every night to pray for my safety and that of her first grandchild. 

Luckily Aarron and Brian were happy to accompany her. 

You forget your goddess in times of need. She built you strong but even the strong need faith to show them the way 

out of darkness,” she told me. 

“Let her pray Grayson, she can’t do anything else to help you. She cannot fight them, she cannot stop them, but she can pray for her son who’s protecting her,” Annette had explained to me. “I do it too,” 

Annette was quite irritable about not being able to fight. It seemed she got more feisty as the week went on. My mother stating she’ll be entering a period energy now after being so tired. 

One moment my wife was exhausted the next she wanted to rip our enemy to shreds with her bare hands. Elizabeth almost fainted when she saw Annette running laps. 

I won’t say it to them but having Matt and Elizabeth knowing that Netta was pregnant helped her immensely. 

When she got sick they helped hold her hair now, they stopped people from going her foods she could no longer stand. They covered for her fatigue. Most importantly they protected her with even more attention. 

She sl*pped the other day and they caught her and took her to the clinic immediately, she had been furious about the fuss they’d made but I was grateful. 

Netta now craved nothing but burgers. Elizabeth made her a burger for breakfast and lunch and after dinner she 

wanted another one. 

Lili kept pushing her to eat fruits and vegetables with her burgers and Annette ate them all as if she’d been starved.

“She’s going to show very soon the wolf in here is fast growing now,” my mother warned me. 

The fear of someone targeting my wife and child washing over me every time I thought of people knowing she was pregnant. 

I used to think when I’d have my first child I would tell my pack the instant I knew and,we would celebrate for a week. 

Now I hid my wife away and ran my warriors ragged for the defense of our people. 

She was asleep in my arms when I heard the howl. She started a little but loses her and rubbed her back and rolled her 

over. 

I didn’t bother getting dressed I just went downstairs and transformed. 

Enzo bound out of the house and down t eh road Matt was transformed on the road Cyrus his wolf dark brown and golden eyes watching over Annette. 

We sprinted our legs moving like train pumping to propel us forward. I passed Elizabeth as she made her way to my wife no doubt. 

We were out in the forest there must have been 30 of the them they were attempting to burn us the same but I had prepared for that. Water hoses on the ready and any man with match was doused with oil himself. 

A man burning also be ran past me and I put it out of my mind as Enzo tackled a wolf off of Charlotte and bit down on his jaw. 

Charles had three men on him and I was about to go help when he broke ones ribs and then ones knee and threw them both into the third and then knocked the third attacker out. 

James ripped a mans throat apart with his bare hands. He looked happy to be in the bloody, gorey, thick of it. 

A warrior of mine yelped and we bounded over to him. Theses wolves had no respect they attacked him in his transformation. 

We grabbed the demon by his leg and sunk my claws into my targets back. We clawed and scratched down his face. 

Enzo bounded off of him and launched after a man with a can of gas. Tripping him and growling down on him I heard him whimper as he saw my teeth. Idiot. He passed out from fear. 

A wolf tackled me ur at least attempted. We turned on them and we clashed paws and jaws but he wasn’t nearly as strong as me and I had him in seconds. We clawed into his stomach and pounced down on his chest ferociously and we heard a crack. 

We looked over the field and many of theirs were down the rest were running away. It seems they were done losing. 

We waited a while letting our warriors get back to the gate and stood guard a while. Eventually Matt came back out and changed with me 

We walked back through the roads and to our house before we transformed back.

“This the second time you’ve come home to me in dirt and blood,” she pouted standing there in her nightgown. 

“I’m sorry, I wanted you to sleep,” I explained why she went to sleep with me beside her and woke to me like this. 

“I’m sure it won’t be the last time I see you like this,” she let tear go. “Come on, let’s get cleaned,” she extended her hand to me. 

I come home hell bent and she cleans me up and some how I am better. 

She cleaned me up again and I found my peace in her skin, her l*ps her touch on me. By the time 

better. 

on me. By the time the sun was up I felt 

“Sleep even if it’s only a little,” she told me and if wanted to fight, my b*dy had other plans and I fell into sleep. 

I slept long and I got up to start going over the losses and the defenses we needed. I found my way to my v office. 

“Looks like they’re chomping at the bit,” Charlie rolled his shoulder. “Just like you wanted,” 

Taking on three men at once was hard even for an Alpha with blood like his. 

“I saw your brother out there,” I side eyed my eldest brother in law. 

Charlie stopped and turned away from me. I felt him turn cold, “I know, Violence is all he craves,” 

“I think that’s why he’s chosen me, a good challenge and I’m willing to fight,” I sighed. 

“He’ll kill himself at the rate he’s going,” Charlie sounded haunted as he spoke. “It the alpha blood we have. Blessing and a curse, angry and fiery all the time. You have to use 

he sighed. “You know, Annette is the best at dealin for good and sometimes that just doesn’t seem possible,” 

corrupt her,” 

“James isn’t then?” 

“He’s always had a spirit I- 

with it all. She’s too nurturing and kind to ever let that stuff 

I felt a huge slam of a fist in my face i felt actually taken out by it for a second my mind wobbling. 

“JAMES!” Charlie grabbed the young one and from the thud he had simmaed his brother into the ground. 

“Spririt,” I slurred “I can tell,” 

“You fucker she’s completely over stressed you absolute dickwad! She shouldn’t be like this!” James cussed me out. 

“James stop!” Charlie growled. “You are dangerous!” 

“Alpha,” Leon entered the room panting and red. “Alpha…the Lung she’s she’s. Man the kid runs fast. She’s passed out. Aarron is with her and Elizabeth they’re,” 

I walked past him, my mind battered for two reasons.

**Annette 

I walked down to the clinic. 

**Annette 

My ears rang as I opened the door she was laying on the table. 

Annette 

She popped up in an instant. “I’m alright. I’m fine,” she smiled her eyes wide in anticipation of my freak out. 

“It’s a common side effect of pregnancy,” Aarron sat back in his chair and crossed his arms. “She and the baby are fine,” he huffed. 

Author’s note: 

Thank you for reading. I know gorey isn’t a word but it fit in my head.

They might as well tell James and Charlie if they don’t know that they are going to be uncles. Also call her Mom.
