Chapter 115-1
The journey to the meeting place was interesting to say the least. Sam, Jake and Finlay all kept trying to feed me with snacks which Matilda had sent with us, or tried to make me drink water. We stopped at every rest stop we saw. How the warriors in the second and third car hadn’t lost their minds after the second hour was a testament to their loyalty to the pack.
“I promise we can skip this one,” I insisted as I saw the sign for another rest stop.
“Are you sure?” Sam asked, he was currently driving.
“I’m sure. It hasn’t been an hour since we last stopped. At this pace, we will be about two months late to the meeting.” I took a breath and reminded myself they did this because they cared about me and the pup. “You are all being really sweet, but this has been ongoing for three days.”
“We made room for this in the travel plans,” Finlay reminded me. I knew we had, that is why it had taken three days.
“I know. But we are so close and I really, really want to meet my parents,” I told him. He smiled, nodded and kissed my hair.
“I understand, we will skip the stop and go straight for the meeting,” he said.
“I think I have never loved you more than in this moment,” I told him and relaxed against him. The three men in the car laughed. Three minutes later, as we passed the rest stop,
Sam chuckled.
“What?” Finlay asked.
“Both of the other cars mindlinked me, asking if something is wrong as we didn’t stop,”
Sam told us and there was another round of laughter. We were close to where the meeting
would take place, a rented log cabin in the middle of nowhere. My nerves were acting up and my wolf felt restless.
‘Is there anything I can do?‘ Finlay asked in a mindlink. I snuggled in closer to him and
he put his arms around me.
“This is what I need,‘ I told him. We turned off the main road.

“Remember, my family poses no threat to me or the pup. I will not have any of you growling at them when they hug me. Is that clear?” I told everyone in the car.
“Yes, Luna,” both Sam and Jake said.
“I will behave,” Finlay promised. I smiled and gave him a kiss.
“Seems like they beat us here,” Jake said as he saw the cars already parked outside the
cabin.
“I’m guessing they didn’t take three million pee breaks,” I pointed out, and Finlay chuckled. I was out of the car almost the second it stopped moving, Finlay was close behind me. I saw the group standing on the deck in front of the cabin. My mom and dad broke off from them and were hurriedly walking towards me. They stopped about halfway
to me.
“Amie! Are you…?” my mom asked, looking at me with big eyes and then switching focus
to look at Finlay.
“Yes, mom. We are having a pup,” I happily told her. She let out a mix between a shout and a sob and before I knew it she had me wrapped up in a tight hug. I hadn’t known how much I missed her hugs until that moment. Her warm, familiar hug and her scent which enveloped me had me teary–eyed in seconds, and I hugged her tightly back. I felt my dad draw both my mom and me into a tight hug and the mix of both their scents sent me back to my childhood and the feeling of being safe and loved washed over me.
“I’m so happy for you, pumpkin,” my dad told me in a low voice and kissed my hair. I could hear the crack in his voice. “And you as well, Finlay,” he added.
“Thank you. We are very happy,” Finlay said from behind me. I was proud of how calm he
was.
“Let me have a look at you,” my mom said, pushing me to arm ‘s length distance. She had tears running down her face as she looked me up and down. “You look radiantly happy,”
she told me.
“I am,” I agreed and smiled through my own tears.
“Finlay, it’s nice to finally get to meet you,” she then said. Finlay smiled at her and reached out his hand. I saw his surprise when she, instead of shaking his hand, drew him
