Chapter Twenty Eight

Desie

Nathan found the compound on the other side of the Northern territory that Regan told us about. He found another one at the uppermost quadrant of the continent. He"s not sure which one of those is most likely where my mother is, but he"ll find her. With the information that he"s gathered from the omegas at The Omega House he thinks we"ll be able to end everything.

Both Minos and Lopez are aware of everything we know. Minos and Mateo are working on getting two omega facilities like The Omega House built on the West Coast. The plan is to have them ready by the time the COT program is established over there. Mateo is pushing to change the rule requiring three alphas for a complete pack. Hopefully that will change as the Western territory becomes safer for omegas.

I am looking forward to fall and also dreading it. We"re planning a trip back to the West Coast. I can"t wait to see my brothers again and introduce them to Calian. But we"re going back for fire season. It was too important to Michael and Ben no matter how much it worries me. I know they"re careful and they know what they"re doing, but I"ll never not be terrified of them not coming back home from a fire. We"re staying from the middle of fall until the end of winter. Seth will travel back and forth as he needs to, which will give Brandon the opportunity to come visit Joseph and Cody.

Calian is asleep in his bassinet right now. I just put him down to finish out his sleep for the night. If I"m lucky I"ll have a good two hours before he wakes up. Standing at the foot of our big bed, I look down at my guys sprawled out where I left them. I still can"t believe this is my life.

I got everything I ever wanted and more. I have a pack of alphas who love me and who I love more and more every single day. I have the most beautiful son, and he will grow up with family all around him who will love and protect him. My life has become so joyful that sometimes it"s hard to remember that it"s real.

"Come back to bed," Seth whispers, reaching for me. "We"ve only got a couple hours left."

I crawl into the bed, making my way through and over the tangle of limbs until I get to Seth. Snuggling into his side, I drape my thigh across one of his, smiling when Ben curls his body around me from behind. Michael"s foot finds its way over to hook my ankle and I sigh. This is it. This is what the rest of my life will be, and I can"t wait to live it.
