Chapter 124

58 What’s Up Mom Calliope POV

I still can’t believe we’re having a pup. I’m worried about tomorrow, but I can’t help the happiness I feel
right now. Knowing that Eli and Silas are just as excited is amazing. Eli went to speak to his father in
the office, so it’s just me and Faith this morning. After I got her dressed and gave her breakfast, we put
a DVD on. I love these moments when it’s just the two of us. She loves simple songs and Mickey
Mouse. I smile down at her and she crawls over to me. Faith reaches for me and I pick her up,
peppering her face with kisses. “Do you want to call grandma? She is going to be so excited that you’re
going to have a brother or sister.” She is going to be so excited about having another grandpup. I kiss
her forehead one more time before I dial my mother’s number. The phone rings twice before she picks
up. “Hello” she says and I smile hearing her voice. I miss her, but we are both where we need to be. “Hi
mom, how’s Leo?” “He’s fine Calliope. I was just about to call you. How are you?” It’s strange that she
didn’t ask me about Faith or Eli. That’s usually her first question after she greets me. “I’m great actually.
I know I won’t get to see you for a few days and I couldn’t wait to tell you that Eli and I are having
another pup.” I pull the phone away from my ear as she squeals. After a few seconds, I put it back to
my ear. “Mom” I say with a chuckle. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scream in your ear. I’m just so excited.
How far a long are you?” She knows Eli and I haven’t been together that long, so that’s a strange
question. “I’m very early. I was a little worried about the timing, but I’m happy. I have an appointment
with the pack doctor today.”

“Calliope, I know you can’t come here with everything going on, but I can come to see you if that’s
alright?” “I don’t want you to leave your pack vulnerable. I have no idea what the ba**ard has planned.
He has tried to get so many supernaturals involved. Goddess only knows what will happen when Eli
and the others arrive at Grant’s pack.” “I’m sure they can handle the pack for a day without me.
Besides, I need to see you after the big news. You will not be going with the pack to fight Grant. You
have to protect my grandpup. I’m sure your mate feels the same way I do.” Something doesn’t feel right
about this conversation. It sounds like my mother but she would never say these things to me. “Mom, I



won’t be fighting. I will be staying in the pack.” “Good, you have always been a smart girl. I wouldn’t
want you to get hurt. I’m so happy to have you as my daughter.” “Thank you, mom.” I have to say
something that lets me know if I’m just being paranoid or something is going on with my mother. “My
wolf Scarlett and I are excited for you to come and visit.” Aurora growls low and sits on her haunches at
me calling her the wrong name. “I miss Scarlett too. I will be there before dinner if you want to let the
patrol guards know.” “Absolutely, I’ll see you this afternoon.” As soon as I hang up, I dial Oliver. He
picks up on the third ring.

“Oliver, where are you right now?” “I’m with Tony and his parents in their cottage.” “Have you seen my
mother today?” “I haven’t seen her since our run after training this morning. What’s wrong, Cali?” “I just
got off the phone with my mother and despite sounding like her, something isn’t right. She didn’t know
my wolf’s name.” There is silence for a moment and I wonder if the call dropped. “Oliver, are you
there?” “I’m sorry, I was just taken back. She would never forget Aurora is your wolf.” Aurora preens in
my mind at Oliver’s words. I roll my eyes. “I need you to get Leo to call me in private. He would know if
she has been acting strangely.” “He’s probably in the kitchen. I’ll head back to the pack house and have
him call you.” I disconnect the call and the door opens. Eli steps inside smiling until he sees my face.

“Calliope, what’s wrong” he asks as he comes toward me. I tell him about the conversation with my
mother. “It sounds like my mother but something’s wrong. My mother would never get my wolf’s name
wrong. She would never tell me not to fight. She knows that I have never backed away from a fight. I
am stronger than most male Alphas.” I see hurt and sadness flash in his eyes. “Eli, if I didn’t want to do
this I wouldn’t. We discussed it like adults and I agreed. You didn’t order me not to fight. I know you
respect me and that’s all I ask as your mate.” I lean in and press a kiss on his lips. When he pulls back,
I can see nothing but love in his eyes. The phone ringing on the table gets my attention. I pick it up and
Leo greets me. “Oliver said you needed to talk to me about your mom. She isn’t acting like herself this
afternoon, Cali. She has been avoiding me since training this morning and even told me to leave her
alone when I went to bring her food”, Leo says. I can hear the hurt in his voice. “Leo, my mother loves



you. Something is wrong and I intend to find out what that something is.” I hang up with Leo and tell Eli
what he said. “Can you ask Lily to join us at the border when she arrives, Eli?”

Eli POV

Why can’t things just slow down? We should be excited about going to see our new pup, but instead
something is going on with Jasmine. I agree with Calliope that something is off. We head to the pack
hospital. I’m holding Faith and she is babbling. I keep trying to get her to say dada but she is making
every other sound. Calliope is laughing and I pull her close to my side. These are the times I love the
most. Just us doing normal things instead of waiting for another issue like an attack. We reach the
hospital and the doctor is waiting for us. She leads us to the back and a nurse comes in to draw
Calliope’s blood. Once she leaves, the doctor pushes an ultrasound machine in. “We did the blood
work as is protocol, but Alpha Eli assures me that you are pregnant. I brought the ultrasound so we can
get a look at the pup.” Calliope smiles at me and I take her hand in mine. The doctor starts to move the
wand over Calliope’s stomach and I stare intently at the screen. I wait for the little jelly bean to appear
like last time. My heart squeezes in my chest when the screen comes to life. Calliope is staring at me
with concern on her face, but I can’t even speak. “Well, it seems that you will be welcoming two new
pups, Alphas.” “Twins, we’re having twins” Calliope says, and I can’t help the smile that breaks out on
my face after the shock wears off. “Did you hear that, Faith? You’re going to be a big sister to two
pups.”

“Alpha Calliope, you’re about two weeks along. Since you are both of Alpha blood, your pregnancy will
be shorter than average wolves. The pups will grow faster and the pregnancy will last about four
months. I’ll print you a few pictures and grab your vitamins.” The doctor leaves and Calliope still hasn’t
said anything. Is she upset about us having twins? I know it’s a lot to have a pup and add two more to
the mix, but we can do anything together. “Calliope, talk to me” I say and her eyes meet mine. “We’re
having two pups.” I chuckle “I know sweetheart. Tell me what you’re thinking.” “I’m a little overwhelmed,
but I’m happy, Eli” she says. I smile and bend to kiss her forehead before I help her sit up.



Once she is cleaned up, we head to my office. I want to tell my parents before we talk to everyone else.
I place Faith in her pack n play and take a seat behind my desk. I pull Calliope onto my lap and kiss
her, pouring all my love into the kiss. When I pull back, I place my forehead against hers. “I love you,
Calliope. Thank you for making me a father again. I can’t wait to see you round with our pups.” “I love
you, Eli. Aurora and I are excited about carrying our pups.” A memory flashes in my mind and I try to
push it away. Calliope takes my face in her hands. Before she can say anything, the door to my office
opens and my parents walk in. “Sorry, we didn’t mean to interrupt but you linked us, Eli”, my mother
says and I laugh. “No come in, we have some exciting news to share with you both.” I look at Calliope.
“We are expecting two pups” she says. My mother screams and my father’s smile warms me. Calliope
stands and my mother practically squishes her. “Mom, don’t squeeze my mate to death.” My mother
gives me a glare before she loosens her grip on Calliope. “Congratulations” my father says before he
hugs us both. After we all sit down, we tell my parents about Jasmine’s behavior and upcoming visit.
“We will take Faith, but please be careful. You know your mom, Calliope. So, if something doesn’t feel
right, then it probably isn’t”, my mother says. “One last thing before we head to the dining room. I would
like to have Calliope’s Alpha ceremony next week.” My mother nods and I can see her wheels turning.
“Something simple will be fine” Calliope says and my mother looks disappointed but smiles.

Calliope POV

“The patrol guard linked me. Your mother is at the border”, Eli says. I take a deep breath and we head
out of the pack house. Lily is waiting in the yard. She smiles and I have a feeling that she knows about
the pups, but I stay quiet. Amelia is her best friend and I would expect no less. “Let’s go see what’s
going on with your mom”, Lily says. We make it to the border in ten minutes. My mother looks like she
is ready to lose her cool, which is not like her at all. “Calliope, why am I being detained like this? I am
your mother and I shouldn’t be stopped when I come to visit.” The patrol guard looks at Eli and he
nods, giving them permission to leave. I go to step closer and Lily stops me. “That is not your mother”
she says. “Calliope, what the hell is this woman talking about? Of course, I’m your mother. What the



hell is going on here” my mother yells. Lily waves her arms and begins to chant. “Show your true self”
she says, and the figure changes before our eyes. A girl who can’t even be eighteen is standing before
us. She looks petrified and my heart clenches in my chest.

“Where is my mother?” The girl bursts into tears. “The witch has her. I was supposed to get close to
you and let the witch know when we were alone. She wants to take you away from the pack before the
attack begins. It will weaken your mate. I didn’t want to do it but they have my brother. He is just a little
boy. Alpha Grant doesn’t care who he hurts” she says in between her sobs. “How are you to let the
witch know when you have me?” She pulls a vial of bright red liquid from her pocket. “I smash this and
it brings her to it. I’m so sorry. I just wanted to help my brother.” Lily puts out her hand and the girl sets
it gently on her palm. Eli pulls me to him and buries his head in my neck. “Mine” he says and I rub
circles on his back. “No one will take me from you. Lily, please take the girl to the cells and make sure
she is comfortable.” I turn to her “you are not a prisoner, but I can’t have you walking around the pack
until we figure everything out. We will help you save your brother.” Her eyes brighten at my words and
she nods. Lily takes her hand and once they are gone, Eli pulls back. “What if you hadn’t realized that
something was off about your mother?” “Eli, I know your scared but I am strong and I will do my best
not to fight, but I might have no choice with a witch involved. We will come up with a plan and we will
keep everyone safe, including our pups.”
