The Fall Ball
Chapter 83

Rose)

Ash and I stand and talk with the Past King and Queen, and my parents. As we are talking I watch as the members of the Kingdom all head inside the palace. It makes me happy to know that these are my people, this is my Kingdom and its future leaders are growing fast in my belly.

“I see that a congratulations for more then one reason is in order,” I hear from me. I smile as I turn to see the person talking to us.

“Alpha Jake!” I exclaim as I run to give him a hug. “What are you doing here?”

He smiles and hugs me back, “Well Ash here called me and said that the two of you had some good news that you would be anouncing today. So I made sure that I could be here to see what the good news was. I am so glad I came, you are full of surprises now arent you.” Alpha Jake tells me.

He lets me go and greets Ash and our parents. Ash smiles and walks over to me.

“Seems you arent the only one who had a suprprise planned today.” He tells me with a smile and reaching out for my hand. “Lets head in to get some food.” He says and starts to lead me to the palace.

Our parents and Alpha Jake follow us.

As we walk into the palace we head into the main dinnig room. I smile as I watch all the members of the kingdom sitting around talking with one another. It is so great to see so many people enjoying themselves. Some of the pups are running around and playing. I watch them as I run my hand over my belly.

“Soon our pups will be running around doing the same thing.” Ash wispers to me as he leans over and k****s my cheek.

“Ash, Rose, I have set you two up at the main table with us.” Alpha James says to us as he gestures to the table with Luna Mary and my parents.

“Thank you,” I say walking over and sitiing by my father.

“So you not only are you giving me a grandchild, you are giving me two.” He says with a smile while giving me a quick side hug.

I watch him sitting there for a while, he keeps glancing at my belly and his hands are twitching.

“Dad, do you wanna feel the babies?” I ask him, he grins and nods at me. “Go ahead, they are prettiy active today.” I tell him with a chuckle.

He slowly reaches his hand over and places it on my belly. In no time at all both babies are rolling around.

“Look at that, they are already fighting over who is going to get your attention.” I tell him. He chuckles at me and removes his hand.

“They will both get equal attention from me, that is if I can ever get them away from the grandmothers.” He says looking over at my mom. We laugh and join the conversation going on at the table.

“So Rose, after everyone is finished eating the families would like to congratulate you. So they will take turns walking up here to talk to you. That may be the best time for you to let your walls down and use your gift. As you will be in close contact with everyone in the Kingdom at a slow pace, you shouldnt be overwhelmed. If it gets to be too much, please put your walls back up. We do not want to risk your health or the health of the babies.” Alpha James says to me.

“Sounds like a good plan to me.” I tell him with a smile.

“I dont understand why you are doing it though. We haven’t had any issues with vampires, rogues or Sol in a while. I think you are putting your self in danger for no reason.” Mom tells me.

“I have been working with Raymond, I am perfectly safe to do this. I want to be sure that there is no one in the kingdom that has any ill will towards me or the babies before they arrive. I want to be sure that the kindom is safe and so are the babies. If any one has any ill will towards them, they are a problem for the whole kingdom.” I tel her.

“As long as you dont push your self too far.” She tells me with a smile.

“So what will happen if you do hear that someone has a problem with you or the babies?” Alpha Jake asks me.

“Ash will handle it,” I say to him.

“Does the Kingdom know that you are a royal?” He asks.

“Not yet, why?” I say to him looking to Ash.

“So how will you explain what you hear to them and prove your findings? They do not know that you are a royal, they do not know that your wolf is a gift from the goddess herself, and they do not know of your gifts.” He tells me.

I look around the table and see that everyone has the same look on their face.

The look of gloom.

“Well if i hear anything that brings me to worry, then we will have to have another announcement made. I will have to bring my gifts and family background to the attention to them all. Once I have proved that, then I can bring attention to my findings and then it can be dealt with.” I say.

“You sound like a true Queen, you thought of a solution to a problem, before it even became a problem.” Luna Mary says to me.

I smile at her and start to eat. Everyone at the table seems to be in their heads thinking about things. Before I realize it, my walls have come down.

“She is so smart, she will do great things for our Kingdom.” I hear from Alpha James.

“These dishes are perfect, and it seems like everyone is enjoying their time.” I giggle as I hear Luna Mary.

“She is going to make a great Queen, I am so blessed to have her as my mate.” I hear Ash, I look over to see him smiling at me.

“I know you dropped your walls. Is everything okay?” He asks me, I just nod at him.

“It is amazing to see the woman that she is becoming. I can not wait to see these babies of hers. She is a great woman and will be a great mother.” I hear my moms thoughts.

“I cant believe that my baby is grown and having babies of her own. She is going to make a great leader to her kingdom and a great mother.” I hear my Dad.

I look around and smile as I watch my family. This is one of the best days of my life. I have been so blessed in this life. Happiness is a great feeling after everything that I have been through.

“Rose, there is one person whos thoughts you have not heard.” Lilly says to me.

I look up and realize that she is right. I can not hear anything coming from Alpha Jake. He looks up from his plate and smiles at me.

“You wont be able to hear my thoughts.” He says to me through a mind link.

“Why is that?” I ask him.

“I have some vampire b***d in me, due to a bite years ago during a fight.” He tells me.

“Oh,” I tell him.

“And since your gift doesnt work on vampires, it also will not work on any wolf that may have vampire b***d within them.” He says.
