My Miracle Luna
Their Gemini Wolves Chapter 30

{Milan's

P.O.V.}

Labor was no joke, and I'm grateful my mom stayed with me the entire time. What I thought would take several hours only ended up being about four hours; my pups wanted out, and they wanted out fast. I was simultaneously excited and scared about finally reaching this milestone in my life. I never dreamt that I would be a mother, but it was like I told the Desert Moon Gamma. After seeing everyone have a pup, my ovaries started to hurt with want and envy. So, I had finally convinced Jason for us to actively start trying. He was over the moon, and that alone made me happy as well.

What I didn't anticipate were twins right off the bat, but I guess being a fraternal twin explained the higher probability. Though, I half expected it to come from Angelo instead. Something else I didn't expect, most of all, was my twins to come out one right after the other and covered in fur. "Whoa, what the f**k!?" I heard Jason react.

"Oh my goddess," my mother gasped. Dr. Andrews held one pup while Serina held the other. Both pups were in wolf form. My eyes welled up with tears, and I'm anything but a crier.

"My stars-Jade wolves," Dr. Andrews whispered.

"f**k," Jason grunted when he saw our pups. As soon as he said that, I watched as both pups immediately shifted into their human forms without so much as a peep. Shifting was painful even for adults, and yet, my children did it with ease. "What ... What does this mean?" I asked as I stared at them, feeling crippled by the weight of so many emotions threatening to overwhelm my postpartum state.

"Gamma, we must inform the Alpha," Dr. Andrews said, completely ignoring my question. Jason looked at me, and I could see the fear in his eyes.

"No one speaks of this to anyone outside of this room," was all he uttered before leaving the room. I was stunned. Dr. Andrews shook his head and handed over my son while Sirena passed over my daughter. Both opened their eyes, and I was startled to see they both had green eyes. Jason had brown eyes, and I had hazel eyes. How did our children end up with green eyes? What did all of this mean?

{Wyatt's P.O.V.}

Rare and once-in-a-lifetime events seemed to be common occurrences these days. To say I was completely gobsmacked by the events unfolding would be an understatement. Jason's and Milan's pups were Jade wolves-the exact same type of wolf as Xavier's daughter. I knew this wasn't completely unheard of, but it was hard to wrap my head around the fact that I just added twin Jade wolves to my pack when I already have three Primordials and a light witch. This was such a f*****g disaster. A blessing, of course, but a disaster nonetheless.

I sent for Dorian and his ranked members; the birth of Milan's pups changed everything. The stakes were even higher now that I had two more pack members in danger if Marvin found out about the Gamma pups.

It wasn't long before they showed up at the hospital, but I just couldn't find it in me to tell Dorian what was going on. I still couldn't believe it myself. My mind was a jumbled mess as I tried to find the right words; would Dorian even know what a Jade wolf is? As soon as I gathered my thoughts, his Gamma female spoke first and asked about the Jade wolf. So much for breaking the ice.

"Jade wolf? Sin, what are you talking about?" Allie asked her.

"That's what both Alpha Wyatt and his sister have on their minds. That's why he's all nervous and looks like he's about to faint. Milan's pups are Jade wolves," she answered.

"Sin, you need to stop reading other people's minds!" Dorian scolded her. She bowed her head with respect.

"It's fine, Dorian. Rylee does it all the time too. It's hard for them to shut it off. Don't be angry with her, I'm glad she brought it up. I honestly don't think I could have done it myself without vomiting," I said to him. "Wyatt, are you telling us that the newborn Gamma pups are, in fact, Jade wolves?" Dorian reiterated.

"You've heard of them?" I asked.

"I have. Rare wolves born in wolf form with the ability to shift from infancy. They're almost black in color with a green hue when light reflects at a specific angle. Green eyes in their human form regardless of the parents' eye colors, and some I've heard hold special abilities." "What?!" Melody, Kendrick, and I all exclaimed.

"I'm guessing you didn't know about that last part?" Dorian asked, and we all shook our heads. I wondered if Jennifer had a special ability that no one knew about. She was taken as a child, so it was definitely a possibility. "Wyatt, why are you so worked up about this? It's a blessing to have a Jade wolf, let alone two."

"Dorian, an ally Alpha by the name of Xavier has a daughter, and she's also a Jade wolf. She was kidnapped 20 years ago, by the same man we are after. She was sold a couple of years ago according to Lexie and Lanie," I told him.

"Lexie and Lanie are the two girls you're helping?" he asked, and I nodded my head.

"Our assumption is that she was trafficked when she turned 18. Xavier was blackmailed into helping the trafficker, a Canadian Alpha by the name of Marvin Archimedes. He promised Xavier the information on his daughter's whereabouts in exchange for bringing him to Lexie and Lanie."

"I see. You think that if Marvin finds out the Gamma pups are Jade wolves then he will come for them since he's done it before." I nodded my head.

"Wyatt, where is this Marvin person?" Allie asked me.

"Honestly, I have no clue."

"Alpha Wyatt, I don't understand," his Beta began to say, "if you knew this man was potentially a trafficker, why is he not behind bars awaiting an investigation?" "We don't have concrete proof," I replied.

"I thought this pack's Luna could read minds?" Sin interjected.

"She can, but-"

"But what!? There's plenty of circumstantial evidence to hold him until a full investigation was conducted," she said, cutting me off.

"Gamma Sin, not everyone in my pack knows what Rylee can do."

"What!?" all of Desert Moon shouted at me.

"Wyatt, what the f**k!" Dorian growled at me. "Are you telling me that you're keeping your Luna's abilities a secret from your own pack? Her pack?"

"Dorian, you don't understand, people knowing about Rylee can put her in danger!"

"I don't understand!? Are you f*****g kidding me, Wyatt, look at who my ranked females are!!" he roared in my face, making me jump. I rarely ever jumped. "My top three females were hand-chosen to fulfill a prophecy about our pack that dates back thousands of years, and each of them has abilities of their own. I sure as f**k understand, but I also don't lie to my pack! The powers of all three are known to all of my pack members!" I was floored to hear him say that. They openly shared their powers. Were they not afraid of blowback?

"Of course we're afraid of blowback!" Sin shouted at me. "But that doesn't mean we lie to the people we're meant to lead and protect. How can you build trust between you and your pack members if you hide important information from them? Also, how the hell does your mate hide the fact that she has abilities? I mean, that is unless you ..." she paused and glared at me. "Oh my god, you do! You prevent her from using her abilities!"

"I don't want pack members to be afraid of their Luna! She's otherworldly powerful! Half of the ones that do know are terrified of her and don't even associate with her because of it."

"That's on you," Dorian sneered. "What did I tell you earlier about undermining your Luna?" I gulped. Why was I being scrutinized at my own pack? I growled at Dorian who growled right back. We ended up in a shoving match, to which his Beta intervened, but that only pissed off Kendrick who also got involved. The next thing I knew, we were all in a punching match with each other, and Jason came out of nowhere. Now he and Dorian's Gamma were snarling at each other, and it turned into an all-out brawl in the hospital waiting room.

I could hear the girls screaming and telling us to quit our crap. Dot was trying to push Kendrick back while Leah was grabbing onto her mate as well. Sin was pushing back Mikey, but there was no one to hold back Jason since Milan was still in the delivery room. Dorian and I were on the floor grappling when we were interrupted by a loud noise.

"ENOUGH!!!" someone roared, shaking the entire waiting room. I had my fist mid-air, about to punch Dorian when I saw the source of the sound-Dorian's wife. Her eyes were black, and she was shaking with rage. I was shocked, her Luna aura was powerful. Even more powerful than Rylee's. But how? "Wyatt. Take your hands off my husband," she gritted her teeth. I released my grip on Dorian and stood up, slowly stepping away from him. Dorian got to his feet and wiped the blood off his face.

"Yo, what is going-Oh s**t," the female Delta said appearing in the middle of the waiting room from thin air.

"You two," Allie addressed Kendrick and Jason, "get the f**k away from my Beta and Gamma," she said with such venom in her voice. Kendrick and Jason immediately let go of Brandon and Mikey. Allie was huffing and puffing at this point. "What is the matter with you!? You are all acting like a bunch of f*****g teenagers!" she insulted everyone. "We are in a f*****g hospital waiting room!! You are all ranked male wolves, have you no f*****g dignity!? And you!" she pointed at Jason. "Your mate gave birth less than an hour ago! Why the f**k are you out here fighting when you should be by her side, taking care of your newborn kids!" Jason lowered his head.

"I heard fighting, and I-"

"YOUR A*S SHOULD BE IN THE HOSPITAL ROOM WITH MILAN!!! NOT OUT HERE!!! Where are your f*****g priorities!?!" Kendrick, Melody, and I looked sideways at Jason who had nothing to say for himself. "GO!!!" Allie commanded him. Jason made haste and ran back to be with Milan and the pups.

"Baby..."

"Don't!" she snapped at Dorian. "You three are just as bad as they are!" she reprimanded her pack. "We're f*****g guests here! We're not here to judge how Wyatt runs his pack! We're not here to eavesdrop on other people's conversations! We're here to fight an enemy of our kind and help Blue Lake! How Wyatt runs his pack, is how he f*****g runs his pack! And you!" she pointed at Sin. "You're f*****g pregnant! Why the f**k would jump into the middle of a fight!? Do you not care what happens to that pup inside of you!? Huh!?" Sin lowered her head and leaned into Mikey.

"Gizmo..."

"Don't 'Gizmo' me, Brandon Kane!"

"Yes, ma'am."

"You guys are un-f*****g-believable! Milan just gave birth to two very special pups, and instead of celebrating their new lives, the first thing you do is worry that someone may come and take them? Is that all you care about!?" she directed at me. "If you were so f*****g worried about this Marvin guy, then you should have captured and locked him away while an investigation took place. Regardless of where he is from, he is operating his business in your territory. That gives you every legal right to have him detained! The fact that your mate knows for sure he is the one should have been more than sufficient circumstantial evidence to keep him here! But YOU let him go. And in doing so, you put every other special and rare supernatural in danger. Not only your mate but Lexie and Lanie along with my females and myself. You can also add Milan's pups to that list as well." I cast my gaze to the floor. I closed my eyes when I realized she only spoke the truth.

Allie took another deep breath and put her hands on her hips while blowing her hair out of her face. I felt ashamed of my behavior, but I was even more ashamed of the fact that I was submitting to Dorian's wife. I was being put in my place and it didn't feel like I was an Alpha at that moment.

"Wyatt, I may not agree with Dorian chastising you about how you run your pack, but I do agree with him when he says that you are undermining Rylee and her abilities. It almost seems as if her having powers is a hindrance to you." I looked up when she said that. "But that's not..."

"It's not? Then what is it? I have never heard of an Alpha that cared about what others thought of his mate."

"Why wouldn't I care? I can't have my pack members being afraid of their Luna or worse, trying to cause her harm, Allie," I retorted.

"Isn't that what banishment is for?"

"With all due respect, Allie, banishment isn't that simple."

"Isn't it?" she sneered back. "Being part of a pack is earned and not a given right. Only law-abiding pack members should be able to call a pack home. If a pack member knowingly breaks the law then banishment is the rightful punishment. If pack members are afraid of Rylee because of her gifts, then tell them to go find another f*****g pack. If they don't like her, for whatever f*****g reasons, and have something to say about her being the Luna, hear them out and then send them packing. It is as simple as that. I've banished pack members for less. I've sentenced pack members for execution for less. But, all those decisions were just and legal." I bit my bottom lip when she said that's how easy banishment was. It wasn't that I didn't know that or believed it. I just couldn't banish someone for one bad thing. I believed that everyone deserved a second chance. Was I wrong? Or was I being naïve?

"Alpha Wyatt, are you aware that your pack members are questioning you and your Luna's ability to lead them?" Sin asked me. I furrowed my brows when I heard this.

"Excuse me?"

"Did I stutter?" My pack was questioning me and Rylee? "What did they say?" I asked curiously.

"That you and your Luna are weak and incompetent." "They said that!?" Melody asked, completely surprised.

"Not in those words, but it's what was implied," Sin replied.

"What else?" Melody questioned.

"That your brother and Rylee can learn how to be leaders and not just Alpha and Luna from Dorian and Allie. That Rylee doesn't earn her respect as Luna and that it's only given out of obligation because she's the Luna." Melody's jaw dropped and I was speechless. "Don't be so dramatic, it was only two kitchen Omegas," Leah said. "But, if there's two, there's bound to be more," she continued. I didn't know what to say or how to react to this information. I was under the impression that pack members loved Rylee. I could care less if they liked me but faking their admiration for Rylee was disheartening.

"Wyatt?" I looked at Allie. "Why are you even still here?"

"What?"

"Dorian told me what happened to Rylee at the Golden Moon pack. Why are you still here?"

"What happened to Rylee?" Melody asked me.

"Umm... She was attacked by a pack member of Golden Moon. He thought he was going into Lexie and Lanie's room, but he went into Rylee's instead. He, uh ... he put his hands on her," I explained. Kendrick and Melody couldn't believe what they just heard. "When did this happen?" Kendrick asked.

"Early this morning," I responded. Both of their eyes bulged out of their eye sockets.

"WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE!?!" they screamed at me.

"Rylee handled it," I responded with annoyance.

"That's not the point, Wyatt!" Allie shouted at me with complete frustration and her hands on her hips. I was taken aback by the amount of attitude she was showing me. "Yes, Rylee has powers and, yes, she's a badass wolf. But that's not the point. The point is, she was attacked by someone at another pack that she is visiting. Her safety was promised, then violated, and yet you're still here. Your mate was attacked. Yet, here you are, worrying about something that may or may not even happen. Whether she told you she took care of it or not, you should have dropped what you were doing hours ago and went to her. To support her. To console her. To love her."

"... ..."

"You need to get your priorities straight," she flat out told me. "Your mate comes before your pack. No matter what." I just stood there shocked. "GO!!" Allie shouted at me. I nodded my head and left to go straight to Golden Moon.

I went into the garage and got into my Ferrari since I needed my fastest car to get to Rylee. As I was driving, I thought about everything that just occurred along with everything Dorian and his pack members said to me. Had I really been screwing up that badly as an Alpha? As a mate? Did my pack members really question my ability to lead them? Were Rylee's powers a burden and I was just too stuck up to admit it? Was I undermining her by forcing her to keep her powers a secret from the pack and everyone else? I slammed on the breaks in the middle of the road and pulled over. I thought about it all-what Dorian said about making the wrong choice not going with Rylee to Golden Moon from day one, Allie saying that I shouldn't care about what people say about Rylee and her abilities, that if they don't like it they could just leave. And how banishment of non-law abiding pack members was in fact that easy.

Then everything that had happened in the past came rushing through my mind. My inability to banish Layla and Terrine from the get-go, even though everyone told me I should have. Keeping Terrine on pack grounds only because I felt bad for her pup. Having Svetlana create the clone of Rylee, which only led to more problems in the end.

It hit me, and it hit me hard. I was a selfish and weak Alpha. And my inability to embrace Rylee and her powers made her a weak Luna. She was anything but a weak wolf, but I made her a weak Luna. Then I thought about how Allie shook the hospital waiting room. But wait, her Delta female showed up all of a sudden. If she only shook the hospital, then no one else would have felt it. Did Allie shake the entire castle? Was she that powerful, a human turned werewolf? How could that be possible?

"I made it possible," I heard a voice. I turned to my passenger seat, and there was a strange woman in my car.

"AH!!" I shouted. "Who the fu-"

"You finish that sentence; I will pull your ears, young man."

"Wh... Who... Who are you?"

"You may call me, Selene."
