Liam was up and pacing. He had waited for her to fall asleep before he had got up to worry. The pack was going to have a hard time with this. Especially the baby. He smiled to himself. He had named him after his father. Constantine Robert Black. He'd been gone twenty years now. Blood or not the boy was his first child. He should have a family name so Liam gave him one.

What had him pacing was Ranger. While Liam had been helping Everly push a life into the world, Ranger and Everly's wolf had been talking. While their human counterparts were busy he had learned things from his mate Talie. Someone would come for them. And he would fight to the death to take the baby. He will kill Everly. All he wants is the child. Liam would not let happen. They were both his. No one else's.

When a soft hand and gentle sparks trailed over his arm he stopped. He didn't realize how heavily he was breathing. His eyes were black and filled with anger. Everly looked at him with her beautiful eyes full of question. "What has you so worked up?" She asked gently, her hand coming up to stroke his cheek. His eyes returned to brown. The anger did not disappear. "You are both mine." Liam said in a low, dark voice. Everly pushed her body closer to his. He pulled her even closer and buried his head in her neck seeking comfort. "He can't have either of you." He said fiercely.
"I know." Her small, confident agreement settled his nerves.

Light was starting to shine in through the cracks of the shutters. The baby started to fuss and Everly scooped him up. She still didn't have a shirt on. Her pale breasts crowned with rosy nipples were leaking a small amount of milk. It shouldn't have but it make Liam's dick stiffen. There was something so erotic about her breast feeding their child. He watched as the boy hungrily latched and Everly's soft chuckle at the baby's eagerness. "Can we call him Robbie?" She asked me looking up with the smile still in her eyes.
"Of course. Now let's get ready. My beta and my gamma will be here soon." He saw her eyes widen and her body stiffen.
"This is not going to go well." She looked at the baby worriedly.
"Don't worry. You are my mate. That is my baby. And everyone else doesn't damn matter." He said it with confidence. She nodded her head and took a deep breath. She switched the baby to the other breast while he finished gathering the few things in the cabin.

When he was done he held his arms out and she handed him his son. He looks so much like her. Ranger had come forward to see too. It really was unreal how much he looked like his mother. His wolf reaches out to mine. Ranger and himself were both a little startled. Werewolves were born with their wolves already there. The wolf part can communicate with the parent within 10 months. Never as newborns.
What is he saying? He was curious.
He is too young to say anything. It is feelings and color. He is very scared. Talie doesn't want to worry her human. But our son was taught to fear before he was barely formed. Ranger held such sadness in his voice. For a small, unborn pup to feel fear was unforgivable. Liam felt the anger burn in his chest. Robbie startled and looked up with sleepy eyes. He made eye contact. Liams heart nearly burst and the earlier anger disappeared. He could see an awareness in the boys eyes that shouldn't be there at such a young age. "I'm your father." He told the boy quietly. Leaning closer to Robbie's face so the baby wouldn't have to work so hard to focus his eyes. Liam could've sworn that Robbie had a light of recognition in his eyes when he whispered those three words. Like the child knew.

Everly had changed into clean clothes. Liam was giving her the baby when heavy boots hit the stairs outside. Moments later a knock sounded. Everly's nerves returned. Liam opened the door to his beta and brother, Malcolm. His gamma, Richard, stood a few steps behind him. The men entered the cabin and made the tiny space even smaller. "Beta Malcolm. Gamma Richard. This is Everly. My mate." Both the men spun and looked. The first thing they noticed was the baby. With looks of surprise they snapped their heads back to their alpha.
"You were gone 12 damn hours Liam! Now you have a mate and a baby?! What the hell?!"
