Sorry for the long wait.

"Mommy is awake," Alexandria whispered to her brother when I entered the kitchen. I wanted to explode when I saw the state of my kitchen. Alexander was covered in pancake batter, Alexandria was covered in chocolate and maple syrup, the counter was covered in egg shells, oil and pieces of uncooked bacon. The only person was perfectly clean was Simon who was calmly flipping over an egg. I swear if it wasn't my beautiful kids smiling faces I skin him alive. "Mommy look,"  Alexander  opened his mouth and I noticed a tooth was missing. "Hey look at that my little baby is growing up,"

"Me too mommy,"  I smiled when I saw Alexandria's missing front teeth, "You know if you put it under your pillow tonight before you go to bed you'll get a gift from the tooth fairy," Alexandria's smile  widen in an cute evil way, "really? the tooth fairy give gifts for teeth wait until I start knocking teeth out,"

"Uh..darling I didn't mean..."

"Breakfast is ready," Simon interrupted me. The kids ran to sat around the breakfast table and started plating their food. "Children what do we do before we eat?" they ran to the sink to wash their hands and when they returned to the table they started to eat, "Alexandria and Alexander," I laughed at their adorable confused faces when their father called their names, "what? my hands are clean. I used soap I swear," Alexander said through a mouthful of bacon. "You idiot," his sister slapped the back of his head, "we're suppose to say grace," he swallowed, "oh yeah."

Eve bowed my head when he started to pray. "Dear moon goddess thank you for the pig we killed earlier for bacon which I think you made. Thank you for the chickens which I also think you made for the eggs for breakfast. Thank you for...the...oh for giving me a wonderful family. Amen," the kids didn't hesitate to start eating again. Simon and I eyes met across the room. My baby was right, we are a wonderful family even with the kids on the way.

That's what I thought until now. How could Simon do this to me? To us? All along he knew who Bulzar was and he never had the balls to tell me? I leaned against the rough concrete wall behind me. I was so upset, confused and angry to even cry. I thought he loved me. I looked at my bony hand and thinning burgundy hair. It was a good thing I had no mirror can you imagine how I would look. I was the most powerful wolf but look at me now. My hands involuntarily formed fists. No I am still the most powerful wolf and when the time comes I'll prove it.
