asked the now sleeping Grace. The only response was a deep baby exhale of contentment as Grace nestled in closer to her. Since letting her hand go, some of the exhilaration had faded, but Kayla still felt wonderful.
While she prepared for Grace's first meal, Kayla wondered what the wolves could possibly be planning.

" P lease , let me go in. She's giving birth to that little monster right now. I can go in and take all three of them out in one shot," he pleaded with his mother.
"Not just yet. You need to be patient. We have to wait for the moon to be completely full for both of us to come into our power. We have no idea what that horrible girl is capable of, and I have no intention of going in there half-cocked," Carolyn scolded her son, making sure to keep a bit of gentleness in her voice. Wolves were volatile, and Carolyn knew that he could turn on her at any second, for any reason.
"I just want them so bad," he whined at her. "They are going to taste so good," he salivated.
"Soon, my darling little boy, the moon will be full in less than two hours, and we will get our revenge."
"You know best, Mother."
When he awakened in the bushes, he felt better about waiting for the kill. Mother really did know best. He treasured the time he was able to spend with her in his dreams, but she had never been able to put him to sleep like she had this time. He wasn't entirely sure that he liked anyone having that much control over him, but he trusted Mother completely. He would do as he was told and wait, as difficult as that might be. The vibrations that accompanied the change had begun. He knew he would begin changing within the hour, and he was having trouble containing his excitement. He lay back down in the bushes and waited for the full change to begin. His pack was in waiting, and they would take out the piece of shit husband. The bitch and her little spawn were going to be his.
Better than cakes and bread , he thought then closed his eyes and waited.

E ven though Kayla didn't want to let her baby go, she knew there was work to be done. The sun was setting, and there wasn't much time to prepare. She got up from the bed with little effort at all. She felt as if she had never even been pregnant, like the stork had delivered a perfect little bundle and she had made no physical effort at all.
"Slow down, honey," David cautioned her, but she waved his concern away.
"I feel great, David. Really great." She smiled. "We need to get ready for them, quickly."
While Kayla carried Grace in her arms, David gathered the potions from the kitchen. The family headed upstairs to barricade themselves in the master bedroom. Kayla and David sketched out a quick plan to deal with the immanent attack and felt that they were somewhat prepared for the invasion.
As soon as the dark began to take over outside the windows, the howls began. Kayla held Grace tightly to her breast. She was so much more afraid now that she had this little person to worry about. Beginning to doubt herself, she took David's hand. They sat on the bed and waited for the battle to begin.
When the crash came from downstairs, Kayla knew the wolves had broken down the front door. Their howls got louder as they made their way deeper into the house searching for her family.
Kayla stood up and headed for the closet, where she gently nestled Grace into a pile of blankets, hoping to keep her safe. She kissed the baby's forehead and felt that electric surge of power once again. Kayla sniffed back her tears and gently closed the closet door as the pack of wolves made their way up the stairs.
"Little pigs?" that familiar voice sang from the hallway. Other raspy voices joined in with the obvious leader.
"Let us come in!" they said, scratching at the bedroom door.
"I can smell your bacon, bitch," the leader snarled.
"Well, then I will huffâ¦," he continued while someone began kicking the bedroom door, trying to knock it down.
"And I'll puffâ¦," he laughed in chorus
