Fairytale Shifters by Alexa Riley (44)

Epilogue

Winnie

I rub my big swollen belly, smiling down at it. I think it’s a bear, only because of how long I’ve been pregnant. Most wolf shifters are pregnant for three months, but bears take longer. I’m almost seven months gone, so Stone is convinced. He’s over the moon about it, actually. He said from the beginning he wanted a little bear cub. I think he secretly wants a boy bear so he can be an alpha one day.

I’ve just gotten out of a long soak in our tub, and I wrapped a robe around me, collapsing on the bed. I just smile and lie back as I think about how perfect my life is.

Everything has gotten so much better since my brother, Koda, showed up and my memories came back. Having him stay in Gray Ridge and become a part of our pack has been amazing. I feel like I’ve finally found myself and found my place in life, a place I’ve been missing for so long.

“Why are you smiling so big?” Stone’s voice makes me look up at him as he walks into the bedroom and sits on the edge of the bed.

“Just thinking about how much I love you,” I say, putting my hand on his scruffy jaw. The whiskers are prickly, but I love how they feel.

He holds my hand, kissing my palm, and smiles back at me. “You did too much today.” His tone is stern, but I know he just means well.

“I’m fine. Today was great, and I was happy to help.” Ruby finally had her triplets months back, and I helped her out today by going to the bakery and working a little. Gwen had her twin girls shortly after, so the two of them have been busy with babies, but luckily, people from the pack have joined in and helped out, so neither of them has been without extra sets of hands.

“Besides, I don’t know how much longer I can contribute with as big as I’m getting, and I wanted to help out as much as I could.”

“Koda has been an asset to the pack. I’m really glad he decided to stay and help with Dominic’s duties while he spends more time at home with the boys and his mate.”

I nod my head, proud of my brother and his ability to bring strength to our pack. “I’m also really proud of the twins for stepping up and volunteering to watch the kids for Gwen and Ruby. I’ve seen a lot of initiative in them these past few months.”

“I noticed that, too. They seem to be taking on more pack responsibility, and I think I have you to thank for that.”

Smiling at Stone, I don’t confirm or deny his suspicion. After my talk with the twins, I think some of what I said resonated with them, and they seemed to understand what they were doing wasn’t right. I don’t think that all of their inner bitch will ever be gone, but from what I’ve seen and seeing how they’ve treated me since that day, it’s been a good transition.

Stone leans down, kissing my belly before pushing my robe off me and kissing my naked breasts. I hum with desire as he licks my nipples, sending pleasure through me. I grip the long hair on the top of his head, pulling him to me and silently asking for more.

“You know I have to be gentle,” he whispers against the soft underside of my breast.

“Please, Stone. Just this once. Be rough with me. I need it.” There’s a slight whine to my voice, but I don’t care. He’s been so sweet and tender the past few months, and I need my hard fierce lover to come back to me.

Letting out a sigh, he stands up, stripping off his clothes and standing naked before me. His hard cock juts out and points right at me, as if it knows what I want.

I let out a little squeal as Stone grabs my ankles and pulls me to the side of the bed. He pulls my legs up, throwing them over his shoulder as he stands on the side of the bed and pushes his cock into me. His thickness stretches me so deliciously, and his first hard thrust makes me moan loudly. In this position, he gets to stand and doesn’t have to lean over my big belly. And this way, I can lie back and enjoy the ride while he pounds into me.

I look up at him and see him grit his teeth, fighting his wolf for dominance. My own animal comes forward. My bear is always with me now. She loves when Stone’s wolf comes out, the strong female needing his alpha wolf to tame her.

It doesn’t take many strokes before I’m clenching around Stone’s cock, my body always attuned to him. And as he whispers dirty words of love, I find myself climaxing again before he reaches his own peak.

He stays inside me, just enjoying the feel of my warmth wrapped around him while I enjoy his hardness. Neither of us want to separate from our intimate embrace.

“I love you, little cub,” he says as he kisses my toes.

“I love you, too, my alpha.”

The dark tattoos covering his body and his shaved hair make him look nearly menacing. But then my eyes travel to my name over his heart, and I see the true tender man inside. He’s my mate, and my alpha, and he will always protect me.

I smile as he thrusts into me again, knowing this is only the beginning.
