I looked around my bedroom. I picked up a couple of items I saw that were missed when the room was packed up and placed in a box. I start to walk out of my room with the box in my hands. My oldest brother is standing in the hallway. He takes the box from me. He whispers, "I still love you and will miss you. I know this is tearing up Mom and Dad. But Dad says until he tracks down who did this to you, he will not disobey the alpha. Mom told Dad that you would not be forced to mate with the father of your pup. She will kill him before that happens. Dad was shocked. She said Jocelyn deserves to find her true mate like she did." He leans over and kisses my cheek. Then out loud says, "Let me take that box. I will place it with your other items that the omegas will take over soon. Now come on, Beta Zane is waiting for you." I follow him downstairs. I noticed no one was in the living room when I came down with him.

Beta Zane says, "They went for a run. They are hurting and did not want to see you escorted out. Go give the Omegas that box," he said to my brother. "They were gathering the items that were already packed up." My brother turns and walks out of the house. I see him hand my box to the omega. Then he shifts into his wolf. Clothes are shredded, and howls in pain. I hear my parents reply, and he takes off, running toward them.

I see the omegas take off with my items. I look around the living room. I see new picture frames with some of my favorite family photos. I knew this was my family's way of saying they still considered me part of the family even if they disagreed with my actions. I picked up those frames and placed them in the reusable shopping bag beside it. I carried that bag to the door and headed outside without looking back. Beta Zane shuts the house door. He then grabs the bag to carry it himself.

He walks outside and says, "Let us get lunch from the dining hall before we get your ultrasound done." We walk inside and sit at the corner table, away from others still there. We eat lunch.

He takes me to get the ultrasound, and I discover I am having triplets. The doctor doesn't say anything. He prints up the photo and hands it to me. I look at him and ask, "Can you please make a copy for my parents and the alpha? Then send it to them." He nods his head yes."

Beta Zane walks me to my new living quarters while still carrying my bag of photos. On our way there, we saw about a dozen wolves pass us. I look up at them, and they refuse to look at me. Beta Zane says, "The Alpha has already said that you are to be shunned. He has closed your linking ability to everyone else in the pack. You can link only him and me. This way, if you need help, you can call for help. He has stated you know what you need to do."

I growl, "he and you can only hear me?"

"Yes." Then he stops and looks at me, "Don't do it."

I looked him in the eye and pulled out the ultrasound. I look at the ultrasound and say through my link to them, "You guys informed me no evidence was left behind. That the place you found me was bleached. There was no DNA fluid in me, it seemed I was douched, and not even a hair was left behind. Well, I asked the doctor today, and he said when I am 15 out of 30 weeks along, he could get DNA from the pups.

He measured the pups. He said that based on size and power emitting off Pup A- which is a boy- this father was an Alpha. His name will be Charles, named after my dad's father.

Pup B- which is also a boy- this one's father is a Delta. This pup will be named after my mom's father, Davis.

Baby C- which is a girl- this one's father is a Beta. She will be named after my Grammy, Guinevere.

You have been looking in the wrong area. If Doc is correct, that means these pups came from a pack and not rogues. Solomon, if these pups are firstborn, they will have the top three spots in whatever pack did this to me when they come of age.

Plus, that Juniper and Granny Smith scent I could start to smell as their scent begone spray wore off should help narrow down who did this. Take this new information and shove it up your ass, Solomon, because whoever the fathers are most likely will want to see me dead, so their dishonor won't become public." I then started to close down my link, adding, "When I discover who they are, I will not mate any of my rapists. You can take whatever you want to plan and shove it up your ass. As of today, Solomon, I will no longer call you Alpha Solomon. You will be Solomon until you earn back my respect Jackass." Then I close my link and feel the jackass trying to break through.

Beta Zane yelled, "Dammit, Jocelyn, he just destroyed his office again. It was about halfway repaired. He is furious. He wants you to answer him."

"No, if he has my pack and family shun me, I will return the favor. He can verify what I saw the doctor writing down in the report since not even the doctor would talk to me."

Beta Zane then takes me the rest of the way to the cottage. All the way there, I heard him muttering to himself. I go inside, and I am surprised at how nice it is. Beta Zane says, "The place has cable and internet. The Omegas moved the desk out of the office and placed baby stuff in what was the office. Guess the alpha accepted your word about keeping them, and they will share a crib at first. Also, the omegas put away your stuff. I know you must feel tired. Go rest, and I will make supper." He walks and goes into the kitchen, and I hear him talking as I sit on the couch and fall instantly asleep.

When I woke up, I heard Beta Zane talking to Alpha Solomon and a few other voices I didn't recognize. I sat up and noticed a blanket lying on top of me. Two others are sitting at my table with the alpha and beta. They are eating spaghetti as they talk. I growl. They all stop and turn at me. I get growled back by all four.

I looked at Beta Zane, "I told you if he is going to shun me and my pups, then I will return the favor. I do not want him here. Get Solomon the hell out of my home."

The other two men laugh. "What did you do to get this little she-wolf angry, Solomon?"

He growled at them, and they laughed harder. He did not reply. I replied, "I am being shunned because I was raped by an unknown pack and ended up pregnant. He wanted to enact a barbaric tradition. He wanted me to abort what he calls abominations since the father or, in my case, the fathers' are not my mate. I look at it as pups given to me by the moon goddess for some reason. If you're here to try to get me to get rid of them, you all can get up and leave because I am not getting rid of my pups."

The other two stopped laughing, "is that why you called us here? Do you need help going after the rogues who did this?"

Before he could reply, I said, "According to our pack doctor, the ultrasound showed these pups are packing pups and not rogues. He said, based on size and growth, I have an Alpha, Beta, and Delta pup inside me. I was raped by an unknown pack and not raped by rogues."

"Are you saying you were raped by the top three pack members and not rogues?" One of the men says.

I look him in the eye, "GENIUS. You listened. Now who are you to ask me this?"

One stood up and said, "I am Alpha Goliath Farro from the Mountain Moon Pack. It would help if you watched what you say, pup. You can be angry about what happened, but you won't use that tone to me.

The other stayed eating and replied, "I am Alpha Bruno Harness from the Cayenne Pack."

Alpha Solomon sighed, "Jocelyn come to the table and eat. Since I had them set up a nursery, you would realize I would not force you to abort."

"But you still have me staying here being shunned. You still feel these pups are abominations. The only reason you changed your mind is that these pups' fathers, if firstborn, will be in charge of a pack, and you look at it as a way to get control of more land. I am not stupid. I also realize that whoever did this must have been at the assembly and heard what was said. There were about 1,000 supernatural there. Then you consider who else was there; it would include about six or seven alphas-to- be plus at least two alphas, I remember."

Alpha Solomon growled, "You're not saying I raped you."

I growled back and put my hand on my stomach, "No, even though they used spray to hide their scent, a couple of them still had a strong scent of Juniper and Granny Smith apples. None of you have that scent."

Beta Zane said, "Jocelyn, please sit and eat. You got to feed those pups."

"Fine," then I sat and ate.

Alpha Bruno asked, "What do you want?"

Alpha Solomon replied, "What I want isn't going to happen. She has already become like a mama bear with cubs. Now she is being shunned by the pack and treated as a lone wolf. I did not want to declare her a rogue. However, if Doc is right about the pups' fathers, I plan to go to the council and demand they give these pups leadership with me as their guardian leader. Then the guilty wolves get punished in the old way."

I look and whisper, "No, these are my pups. I am going to raise them and not you as their guardian."

Alpha Solomon replies, "But since you're not mated, these pups fall under my guardianship."

I shout, "This is currently my house. Leave; I want time alone."

Alpha Solomon replies, "We will leave, but my beta will stay to guard the house." Then he turns to the other alphas, which is why I called you. "I wanted to know if you would have your betas help guard her. They rotate every 24 hours. As allies, we will split the pack; each pack will recurve 1/3 of the grounds. We all expand our land. They must be willing to keep her shunned and shut off from the pack. When we find the fathers, we go after them together as allies."

I look at him, "The fathers will want me and my pups dead or mate me to keep the family line going. They don't want proof of their poor leadership behavior. Then if these pups are firstborn and the highest ranked isn't mated, they will try to force mate me. I guarantee I will kill them before I let that happen. You can take your idea and shove it up your ass Solomon." Then I storm into my bedroom and slam the door.

I hear bones crack and listen to paws running out of the house. I hear Beta Zane mumble, "If she keeps that attitude up, it will be Alpha Solomon who strangles her.

What do you think about the new photo frames and how she interprets their meaning?

Does what her mom shares change your view of her?

What do you think of Solomon's plan?

Is she right to treat her alpha so disrespectfully?
