Chapter 39 Sabrina And Her Mates

"Thank you, Lucas." I say and he nods his head and leaves.

I stand up and straighten myself out. We were sitting in my garden, on the grass.

"You coming mother?" I ask her and she shakes her head no.

"I'll let you deal with your other mate alone. I have a feeling you are going to have your hands full
today." She says before cackling away, walking around my rose bush.

What does that even mean? This woman was always so cryptic.

I walk in to the house and up the stairs to the alpha floor, where my baby Adrastos was.

I walk in to find him with Kate, my new nanny. He was sleeping as Kate watched TV.

"Has he been good?" I ask and she nods at me, standing up to go for her break.

It has been six months since Adrastos birth and boy was my kid growing. No more just eating and
sleeping, he was growing to be more and more active.

Xander walks in, interrupting my thoughts. He walks up to me to kiss my cheek, behind him was
Maximus Forrest.

Looking at him never gets easier. What he put me through plays through my mind whenever I am in his
presence and I get a twinge of anger before taking a breath and remembering I chose to forgive him.

"Hello Kimberley.." Max says to me and I just smile and nod. That is all I can do while I calm my wolf
down from her anger.

"I just came here to let Max in, I'll be in my office if you need me." X says to me, kissing me deeply and
igniting a fire inside of me.



When he pulls away, I throw him a questioning look but I knew he was just marking his territory and I
can gel with that. My problem is, I was horny now and he was going to leave me like this.

He winks at me and walks out of our home. Max coughs to lighten the mood but I was far gone.
Goddess!

"Can I get you anything? Water, juice or beer?" I ask.

"Water is fine." He says and I walk to the kitchen and come back with two bottles of beer. He just smiles
and grabs one.

We have to sit and wait for Adrastos to wake up because he has a schedule now and afternoon naps
are crazy vital.

"While we wait, Sabrina, I'd like to get a few things off my chest." Max says to me and I'm on the edge
of my seat already.

I just nod my head to let him know be can carry on.

"You know when we were kids, I was raised to always be perfect. No faults and no mistakes. I had not
one person to show me how to treat a woman and that's no excuse believe me, I just wish my father
focused more on my emotional intelligence, my emotional strength. Had my mother and I connected
better as mother and son, maybe I would have turned out different but she had me and dumped me on
my dad's lap. Only visited me a handful of times to lessen her guilt I guess. I am working on a
relationship with her and she would love to meet Adrastos, if that's okay with you." Max says, running
his tatted hand through his hair.

"I am sorry for disrespecting you as my mate and as my luna. I am sorry for allowing another woman in
to our lives and putting her in between our sacred bond. I know what your innocence meant to you, you
gave yourself to me and I mistreated you. I take full responsibility for that. I thought you were the weak



one but in actual fact, it was I that needed to harden up. I blamed you for things way out of your control
and it's so crazy thinking about it now. Your uncle got in my head but I allowed it and fed the doubt
seed he planted. I was also jealous. I mean you are incredible and I just couldn't handle being the
weaker one." He says to me, his eyes getting all glassy on me.



This was it. The apology of the century. The one time in my life someone takes accountability for
putting me through the worst.

"I put you through so much, I can't believe you forgave me like that. I can't begin to thank you for letting
me be in Adrastos' life even after trying to kill him. I promise I'm working on myself and bettering the
relationship I have with my parents. I need to do that to be a better man and father. I know I've lost you,
but I am also doing this for you because even when I was that evil bastard, I knew then and I know
now, you are it for me. The only one and it will only ever be you. Xander is a lucky man and if you are
happy then that's all that matters." He says to me and this time I was the one with the tears.

"Thank you for this apology. It means a lot to me and I hope one day we can be friends, for our son's
sake." I say and he nods his head in agreement.

"So, how are things?" He asks and I chuckle.

"Well, it turns out I'm the next moon goddess." I say and Max takes a swig of his beer.

"Yeah. We all saw your transformation. That was really insane." He says and I laugh.

"That's not the half of it." I say and he raises his eyebrows.

"There's a whole different werewolf world and in that world, I have a mate. I met him already too." I say
and Max's eyes bulge out.



"What?" Max sputters. I giggle at his reaction.

"Yup! He would not tell me his name but he came here to make himself known and I had to fight every
nerve in my body that was telling me to go over to him. It was just crazy." I say shaking my head, still in
disbelief of that event.

"Wow. Your life is never boring, is it?" Max asks and we chuckle.

"Nope. Never." I say as tears brim my eyes and a small chuckle escapes my mouth.

Max scoots closer to me.

"There is no rejection in that world so you can imagine the turmoil that's going on in my head right now.
My heart aches for him but also loves Xander and it is worse now that this new mate is here, in this
world. It feels like I can reach out and I'll touch him. He feels that much closer." I say.

I close my eyes, trying to take deep breaths.

"How does Xander feel about all of this?" Max asks me.

"He's also conflicted. He doesn't want to stand in between me and this guy but he also wants to fight
for our love." I say and Max nods his head in understanding.

"How do you feel about this?" He asks and I chuckle once more.

"I feel robbed. Just as I felt robbed of Percy, then you robbed me of you and now this whole new world
blows up in my face to not only reveal that I'm the future moon goddess but that I have a mate too. It is
all just too much." I say as I blink trying to keep my tears from falling.

"Kimberley, how do you really feel?" Max asks me and I let out a sigh.



"I crave peace. I crave a happiness undisturbed. I crave a love uninterrupted. I crave a slow growth and
a life where I can just stop killing or fighting. How do I feel? I feel mad. I feel like crying all the time. I
feel like I'm always at odds with someone or something and it is one problem to the next. I can't even
properly enjoy being a mother as I spend my days either fighting off enemies or losing a lover. I feel
robbed, I feel naked and I definitely feel like a caged animal." I say.

Before Max could respond, Xander walks in with Percy right behind him. My mouth falls open and Max
growls at seeing who was behind X.

"He arrived, unannounced. I called your brother and he also had no idea this one would show up here.
Is there a meeting of the mates I was not invited to?" Xander says and I burst in to fits of giggles.



"I would not want to be in the same room as him." Percy says pointing at Max.

"The feeling is mutual." Max says, folding his arms.

"Max, you can go sit with Adrastos in his nursery while I have a talk with Percy." I say. Max nods and
quickly stands up and makes his way to my son's room.

"I am not going anywhere." Xander says making himself comfortable on the couch next to me.

"Percy?" I call out to him and he sits down in front of X and I.

"You and Max are cool now? Wasn't he the one that left you to suffer while you were pregnant?" Percy
asks and I roll my eyes at him.

"Weren't you the one that continously had sex with a rogue when you were mated to Sabrina?" Xander
asks and Percy groans.



"You both hurt her and she chose to forgive you both! Don't make her regret it. It does not matter what
Max did, you also hurt her. You were her first heartbreak so don't think for a second that you're way
better than Max." Xander says and I place my hand in his, scooting next to him to get even closer to X.

"I'm sorry. You're right. I just still feel very protective of Sabrina." Percy says and Max walks out,
carrying Adrastos.

Lucas walks in with the A sisters, Arianna and Ariel.

"A wonderful day for visitors." Lucas says before walking back out and closing the door.

Arianna walks up to me and pulls me in for a hug.

"We apologize for arriving unannounced, we have urgent matters to discuss with all of you and we
knew you would all be here today." Ariel said and I sat back down with Xander as everyone sat down,
waiting to hear what the witches had to say.

"We are here to help fulfill the prophecy. Alpha Max, it is quite disappointing to have learned of your
transgressions. Did you not listen to us when we spoke of the prophecy? If your son is to be the prince
then who was to be the king?" Ariel asks looking at Max.

Max clears his throat. Clearly unsure on what to say.

"Well that doesn't matter now seeing as the luna is to be the new moon goddess." Arianna points out.

"It does not change the fact that Adrastos is the only one to save us from what is to come. He is the
king that will unite all supernatural." Ariel says to her sister.

"I think alpha Xander and Sabrina are doing an excellent job at raising him. I don't see how Xander is
not fit to be the king in your eyes. He is stronger than Max, no offence." Arianna says and Max growls
as Xander chuckles.



"You have a point." Ariel says.

"Max, you messed up. You ruined a perfectly good thing over simple insecurities. You also wanted
Sabrina to fight off a weak shewolf for your love and attention, that was childish. Might be the lycan way
but she is above that. You could not handle her. With that, proving you are not fit to rule. " Ariel says.

"Xander, you have proven time and time again that you value Sabrina and her son. I have to say my
mother did not see you and Sabrina together so that surprised all of us but I see that it is working well."
Ariel says to Xander, who is all smiles.

"Many years from now, witches will need to come together with wolves to fight off a new threat.
Vampires." Arianna says and we all gasp.

"We all know they are a small pack, living somewhere in Antarctica but in the years to come, the new
vampire king will become greedy and want to take over more land, putting humans in danger. The new
king will also want to take in witches to help cast spells that will help them with walking in broad
daylight and warm conditions." Ariel says.



"So it's true, vampires can't walk in daylight and they cannot survive the warm weather?" Percy asks
and Arianna nods yes.

"We don't want our own being kidnapped and tortured and used as feeding bags. Your son is the only
one to save all of us." Ariel says and I stand up.

"Why him? How is he the only one to save everyone from the vampires?" I ask.

"We are not sure why but my mom has tried to see different scenarios with you, with Max and the
vampires end up winning but with Adrastos, he brings them down before the war takes too many lives.



With him, you stay alive." Ariel says and I chuckle.

"This was before I became the moon goddess, making me immortal." I say and Arianna gasps.

"I am the descendant of the first family. The first lycan family, making me your best bet at defeating
earthly vampires. Adrastos, even though he has gifts, he is not immortal." I say and the A sisters gasp.

"We need to consult with mother about this new revelation." Arianna says standing up and walking to
the door.

"Arianna is right. We didn't know about your new title, we will be in touch." Ariel says as they both walk
out.

"What was that?" I ask looking at everyone that was still in this room.

"Vampires huh?" Anthony asks walking out of the kitchen.

"It would not be a bad idea to have one ruler for all werewolves and it makes perfect sense that the
king be Sabrina's mate. Together, they are quite a force and should be feared. You are both already
respected, don't you see it?" Hunter asks as he too, walks out of the kitchen.

"Why does everyone think Xander is stronger than me?" Max asks.

"Isn't he?" Anthony asks with a smirk on his face.

"Absolutely not! He is younger than me." Max points out and I chuckle.

"He is stronger and I know this because I fought alongside the both of you and he is definitely more
animal." I say and Xander squeezes my ass.

"We can always take this outside and help you understand what they are talking about." Xander says
and Anthony claps his hands together.



"Ahh that's the entertainment I need." Hunter says opening the door for everyone to walk out.

Kate walks in, taking Adrastos from Max and walking to his nursery.

"Let's get this over with." Max says grimly before walking out and we all follow him out of the house.

We walk all the way to the training grounds.

Max and Xander shift in to their wolves. Xander's wolf was already larger than Max's.

"The fight is already over before it even begins. Look at the size difference!" Hunter points out.

"Just watch them, I have a feeling this small wolf will surprise us." Anthony says and I chuckle.

"Okay look, if I feel that this fight is getting out of hand, I will push you two apart. You are both very
important to me so don't kill each other." I say before Anthony screams out,

"Fight!" And they jump at each other.

It was as if they have been waiting for this moment all their lives. The tension between them was
insane. My worry was growing as one would bite a leg then the other a shoulder.

Xander had the upper hand in strength but Max beat him at speed. My nerves were ready to burst, I
was biting my fingernails.

They were rolling around until Max got the upper hand and bit Xander's shoulder, getting on top of him
but Xander pushed him off of him with his hind legs, sending Max flying in the air.



Xander ran to catch up with him and caught him before he could hit the ground and had his teeth by his
neck.



Max would not relent, forcing Xander to plunge his teeth in to his neck.

"I'm calling it! Game over." I say walking towards them.

Xander pulls his teeth out and shifts back to human. He takes his gray sweat pants from me and I
throw the other pants at Max.

"I've never been prouder son." Hunter says patting Xander on the back as he walks away with Xander.

Max shifts back and puts on the gray sweat pants.

"Nobody say anything." Max says and I chuckle with my hands up in surrender.

"So you agree that Xander is stronger?" Anthony asked, earning a growl from Max.

"Easy there wolf. You do not want to wake this tiger." Anthony says and I burst in laughter.

We walk back in to the house to find Hunter and Xander sitting in the main pack house kitchen. I walk
to the fridge to get water for everyone.

I hand the water bottles to everyone and I take one for myself.

"No hard feelings yeah?" Xander says to Max, holding his hand out. Max shakes his hand.

"No hard feelings." Max says just in time as Kate walks in with Adrastos. Max quickly walks up to them
to take Adrastos.

"Maybe go with Kate and show Adrastos your wolf. He loves it." Xander says and Max walks out with
Kate and Adrastos behind him.

I walk up to X as he pulls me in for a hug.



"Hello beautiful. I have a surprise for you." Xander says and I smile looking up at him.

"Let's go upstairs. There is no way I'm doing that soppy simp shit here in front of your father and
brother." Xander says before leading me up to the alpha quarters.

When we got to our room, X handed me a black velvet box. I opened it to see a beautiful ruby
necklace.

He takes it out and puts it around my neck.

"This is beautiful X.." I say as I look at myself through the mirror.

"You have been going through a lot for a very long time. I am strong because you are strong. You bring
out the best in me and I just wanted to show my appreciation." Xander says to me.

I turn around and pull him in for a kiss. We hear the front door open.

"Sabrina?" Percy calls out and I groan.

Xander pulls me in for one last kiss before pulling away from me.

"Just remember that you don't always have to act tough around me. Your worries are my worries, your
fears are my fears and if you are ever tired of being strong then let me be strong for the both of us."
Xander says and I nod my head at his words.

He walks out of the room while I collect myself.

"Ever heard of knocking? You do know that I am the alpha of this pack right?" Xander asks Percy and
Percy mumbles an 'I'm sorry' . I decide to walk out then.

"What brought you here Percy?" I ask sitting down next to X.



"Your father is not doing so good Sabrina. We had a rogue attack a few days ago and he got bit. At first
we were not worried because that's just part of the game but now, he's not healing. His wound won't
heal and he's losing a lot of blood." Percy says to me.

"Why didn't you call?" I ask him and he looks down, ashamed.

"Your father had your brother promise not to alert any of you so we were ordered to stand back. I was
tasked to visit a pack nearby so I went against alpha orders but that was because a nurse called to tell
me he has slipped in to a coma. I had to come tell you." He says and I quickly stand up, disappearing
right in front of Xander and Percy.



I arrive back at Blue Moon, in the hospital reception. The lady in front screams at me, alerting the
people around us.

"Where is Christopher Trent? Which room is he in?" I ask.

"I'm sorry. Only the alpha is allowed in there ma'am." She says to me trembling.

I roll my eyes and try to feel my father out. Letting Athena have full control until we find him. I start
walking, getting in to an elevator up to the fifth floor. I walk up to a door where two male wolves stood
guard.

I let out my power as they try to intimidate me. They quickly show their necks, cowering in submission
and move out of the way to let me in. I reel in my power so I don't scare my father's wolf.

On the hospital bed, the small hospital bed was my father. He looked weak, very weak. It was scary.

"Cj, what is going on with dad?" I ask through mind link.



"I wish I knew Sab. He won't heal and he wouldn't let me call you to come heal him. It is as if he wants
to die." Cj tells me.

"I'm coming." He says before closing the link.

I gently grab my father's hand and memories flash through me. Memories of my father with my mother.
My father, mother and I when Josey was born and finally, when my father found out that my mother
was never his mate. I could feel his pain, the hurt inside.

His wolf died that day with the revelation.

Tears fell down my face at his pain. He masked it so well. A new anger took over me for my mother.

She had thrown bricks at my father when she revealed that she had tricked him but never made things
right. She just left him to deal on his own, again.

Cj walks in to see me in tears. He walks up to me and pulls me in for a hug.

"My mother did this. His wolf won't heal because it is heartbroken." I say to my brother, who nods in
understanding.

"That makes sense. He was tricked in to thinking your mother was his mate and that you were his
daughter, I'd go crazy." He says to me.

"I will heal his wound but that doesn't mean he will wake up. Once he is healed, I'll go bring mother and
Josey here so mother can see the aftermath of her crimes and Josey can also be here for father." I
say.

I place my hands over his wound and heal him. He stirs in his sleep but doesn't wake.



I disappear again and land on Josey's bedroom floor to find Josey sprawled in bed, naked. Lucky for
me her mates were not in the room.

"Josey." I say and she shoots up, surprised to see me.

"You know Sabrina, I love a good entrance but this kind of intrusion is my thing. What happened to
using doors?" She asks me.

"Normally I'd laugh but dad needs us. Get dressed, I'm off to get mom then I'll come back for you." I say
before disappearing off.

I land back in my garden, mother still enjoying the breeze and flower scents. How fitting.

"Meet me at the hospital in Blue Moon. There is a crime you must atone for." I say and leave her
without hearing her response.

I land back in Josey's room to find her showered and fully dressed.

"Took you long enough! I mind linked the twins so poof away." She says and we disappear and land
back in dad's hospital room.

Josey gasps at dad's weak state as Cj explains to her what's going on. Mother walks in and also gasps
at my father's state.

I grab her hand to show her what I saw when I held his hand. Everything that I felt too.

Tears escape my mothers eyes.

"Can I have the room please?" She asks Cj and he nods as we all leave her alone with our father.

"I can't believe dad pulled a Sabrina on us!" Josey says and I look at her with one eyebrow raised.



"The pretending." She says before going on her phone to call her mates and fill them in. I roll my eyes
and decide to do the same but Hunter beats me to it and appears with Xander.

"I told him everything." Xander said and I nod in understanding.

" I take it Kimberly is in there?" Hunter asks and I nod my head yes.

Suddenly a man appears from nowhere, dressed in regal type clothes.

"Sabrina, your serene highness." He says before bowing before me.

"My name is Evan and we need the moon goddess." He says to me.

"Evan, can't you all handle things until she is ready?" Hunter asks.

"I'm afraid this time, we need the moon goddess to intervene. Only she can yield it's power." Evan says
to Hunter.
