King Jaxson's POV

I watched my queen leave with the boy to get food ordered.

I turned to Rebecca "I have a question for you?"

She looked at me puzzled. "What is it?"

"What is your maiden name?" I asked. I wasn't going to beat around the bush. I needed the answer. If I was correct the mating process between our daughters will change them both.

She dropped her eyes. "I have kept my name hidden for along time your majesty. But my maiden name is Cassidy"

I smiled at her. I was right. And now we can prepare for the changes that will occur.

"My king why do you ask?"

"My wife's maiden name is Fate." I replied.

That causes Rebecca to gasp. "Than that would mean....." she started but than got tongue tied and became lost in her own thoughts.

I nodded my head though she didn't notice "than that would mean. That our daughters will become very strong. And the ghost and shadow will become one."

Rebecca looked at me and nodded. Than her eyes looked beside me. i turned my head. I had forgotten that Jennie was there.

She looked at both of us strangely. Than said "you guys shouldn't forget about me. I should tell you guys about when I found her." She said.

Rebecca and I both looked at her. "What?" we asked at the same time.

We didn't have time to get our answers though. Esarosa came down "well shouldn't we all be at the hall for the meeting?" she asked.

I looked at my watch and than said "yup it's time." Than I looked at the two woman beside me. "I hope we can finish our talk after the meeting."

Both nodded their heads.

We all walked out of the pack house and over to the hall.

There wasn't very many in this pack. I counted thirty.

Esarosa also seemed to count I should see she seemed to calm down a lot more. She wasn't nearly as afraid.

She went up on the small stage. Jennie, Elena, Rebecca and I followed.

Everyone went silent and sat down. They all waited to hear what was going to be said.

I stood up and went closer to the edge of the stage. "I am king Jaxson. We are all gathered here today to formally introduce you all to your new Alpha."

I turned and held my hand out towards Esarosa. She stood up and came over.

I turned back to the pack "this is Alpha Esarosa Lowell."

Their was some cheers and some congratulations. Others just remained quiet.

I raised my hand to silence everyone. The room became quiet again. "Esarosa has some news as well."

"Yes thank you King Jaxson." She said bowing to me. Than she turned to her pack. "I would like for Janine Snow, Dr. Reg Caryle, Val Carlyle, Joseph Heart, Sydney Stone and Jonathan Markus to all come up here please."

She waited for everyone to get up and come up to the stage. Once they were all up on the stage I said "would all of you please kneel down before Alpha Esarosa." They all did what I asked.

I had already told Esarosa what she would have to do to accept them into the pack.

She looked down at the six people. "Janine I will start with you since three of these wolves are bound to you." Janine smiled and nodded her head.

"Do you accept my rules and my authority?"

"I do." She replied. Than Janine submitted.

Esarosa looked at the three rogues that were under Janine. They all submitted instantly.

Than Esarosa looked at the two new comers. I believe that Sydney Stone is Joseph Hearts mate. She was apart of the Porcupine Pack. Jonathan Markus was also a part of the Porcupine Pack. They were guards who protected My queen and I as we travelled here.

"I have told Alpha Johnson that you two would like to join my pack. He has agreed to allow both of you to join me. This is your guys choice. And you will still be welcomed in the Porcupine Pack. Do you both accept this?"

They looked at each other than back at Esarosa. "I agree." they both said.

Esarosa smiled. "Welcome everyone to the Rosewood Pack. Please stand and than take your seats."

They all stood and went to their seats. Esarosa looked at me "is there any other business that we need to attend to?" she asked me.

"I don't have any." I replied.

Esarosa turned to her pack "do any of you have anything to say?" she asked them all.

She waited for someone to answer when nobody did she said "I would also like to say. That in two weeks I will try and choose my betas and my thirds. Everyone will be trained to fight for their own protection. It will be your choice though."

There was murmurs and than clapping. It seemed everyone was happy with this. I noticed Esarosa smiling. I think this was the first time that she was accepted by so many people. The best part of it was because they chose to. Esarosa hadn't used her alpha tone even once. She was treating her pack as equals.

"Oh I totally forgot. For now please continue to view Rebecca and Jensen as your betas. Rob and Ron are still boarder guards and protectors. If any of you have an issues and you don't feel comfortable talking to me please go to them." Esarosa said.

Again everyone was fine with that decision.

I looked at everyone "if there is no other business than everyone is free to go. There will be a feast in the dinning room at seven. All come."

Everyone got up and headed out. All accept for Jennie, my love, Esarosa and Rebecca.

I turned to them. "Can we finish our talk?" I asked lookin at both Jennie and Rebecca.

"What talk?" my love asked me.

"Well about Esarosa and Aeliana." Jennie said.

"I want to go see Aeliana do I have to stay?" Esarosa asked. She sounded like a small kid asking for permission.

We all smiled at her. "Yes you can. We will tell both of you later." I said.

She smiled widly and than skipped off to go see Aeliana. "Remember food at seven" Jennie said calling after her.

"Ok." Esarosa yelled back than she disappeared out the door.

<><Esarosa's POV><>

I had felt Onyx reach out to Nadia and I but I was really busy and put up a block.

Now that the meeting was over I asked Nadia what Onyx had asked 'Onyx said that we smelt wonderful and how beautiful we looked. And that they want to go for a run badly.'

I felt Nadia smile at the memory 'Nadia what did you say back?'

'thanks. And that we want them to get better. I also said that the meeting was very important. And that I wanted to run also. I also said that we haven't ran since before we were taken and brought here.' Nadia said. I felt her pain. I knew why we haven't been for a run since being here. We were both still healing. We didn't tell anyone but Colin hadn't just punched us that day. He had injected us with a silver wolvesbane concoction.

Thinking of that I asked 'Nadia why didn't the silver kill us? he injected us with silver and wolvesbane.'

'I don't know why. we will have to ask Rebecca. Maybe it is apart of our gifts.' Nadia said.

'Maybe. And I will ask.'

We got to Aeliana's room just as Dr. Carlyle was leaving. "Alpha Esarosa. I am happy to report that Aeliana will be able to leave this room tomorrow evening. However I am a bit concerned with her wolf. I would like her to shift. If she can't than I will have to do some more test."

I nodded my head. "We can do that. My wolf wants to run also. But tomorrow evening right?"

He nodded. "Yes I don't want her to shift tonight and tomorrow is the first day of the full moon. It will be easier on her after being unconscious for so long."

"That makes sense." I replied. "Thank you Dr. Carlyle."

"No Alpha thank you." he said bowing his head to me.

"Please Reg don't bow. You saved my mates life. For that I will be forever grateful." I said bowing my head to him.

"I was just doing my job. To be honest alpha I wanted to kill the boy who had killed my son. But when I saw Aeliana and all the blood and noticed that my son was the reason I knew I had to help." There was tears in his eyes. He hadn't mourned properly. He was to busy helping to save Aeliana.

"Reg please go and rest. Be with your daughter. you have done so much now you take the time you need. Dr. Snider can do the rest."

He bowed his head again than looked up "thank you. I will go rest. But please call me if anything happens. I won't be able to live if I allow her to die."

"I promise I will tell you personally." I said placing my hand on his arm. I had to look up to the man. He was a foot taller than me.

He smiled and than headed off.

I watched him walk away than turned and headed into Aeliana's room.

She smiled widely as I walked in. "So did you hear I am better now?" she asked me.

I smiled back at her and replied "I heard but I heard not till tomorrow evening."

She pouted. I walked up to the bed and sat on the edge of it. She reached up and lightly pulled me closer to her "I am way better than he thinks." She whispered.

Her lips were so close to me and before I realized it I was kissing her. It started off as soft and gentle than turned to greedy and demanding.

I moved how I was sitting. I put one leg across her waist so I was straddling her. I never broke the kiss. I felt her hands travel up my legs and sides sliding up and under my shirt.

I moaned at the feel of her soft hands against my skin. I heard her moan and than felt her remove my shirt. I looked down at her. Her eyes were lust filled and could smell her arousal.

I slid my hands up her side and removed her shirt. Than I kissed her neck and than softly kissed a random trail down her body to the hem of her pants. Than I kissed my way back up the other side and captured her lips again. I felt her hands trailing lightly over my bare back. Every now and than she would randomly trail her nails down or across my back. It was driving me crazy. I wanted more.

I kissed her deeply. And than stopped panting to catch my breath. "Aeliana we should stop. I don't want you hurt. And someone can just walk in here." I said. I was disappointed in myself.

She reached up and wrapped her arms around my neck she lightly pulled me down to her. She kissed me again. Than whispered "so... everyone knows we are mates."

I placed my forehead against hers. "True but we could have more fun in our room."

She smiled at that. And than agreed. "Where is our shirts?" she asked looking around. I laughed and got up to look. I found mine beside the bed and hers was across the room.

"Here." I said handing her her shirt.

I looked at her. "What's wrong?" I asked suddenly. "Did I hurt you?" I went over and started looking her over.

She laughed "nothing. No you didn't hurt me. My parents are coming up to the room."

I instantly blushed and threw my shirt on. I started messing with my hair. I wanted to make sure it wasn't out of place.

Aeliana laughed "you look amazing stop fussing." She said.

I heard the knock on the door.

"Come in" Aeliana said.

They both came into the room and I felt my cheeks heat up again.

"I .....ummm... i..... umm.. Have to go...." I said stuttering.

Both of them laughed but stepped aside for me to leave.
