"f**k" Manny yells after he hangs the phone up from speaking with Buster. "Mutherfuckers, Gilbert's SUV is parked in the parking deck but he and the others are nowhere to be found. Hell, I know those assholes didn't double cross us." Manuel is calling Sammo, he's one of the men that was with Gilbert. Manuel throws his phone into the wall. If those old gizzards get free we'll lose every damn piece of property that we took from them. I wonder who in the hell helped them. I sure those men didn't let those old farts beat their asses."

Manny briskly turns and points at his brother. 'No they didn't. That nasty a*s friend of hers. Ciara yeah she's behind this s**t. Somehow mother has said something or gotten word to her." He nods his head "Yeah that's it. That can only mean one dame thing. Shane" He yells

"I'm so f*****g tired of Shane sticking his damn nose in my business. That day at the restaurant when Penelope had set it up for us to take Winter. He and Nicholas's asses were right there. Winter Firewalker personal f*****g knights in shining armor. I didn't go inside because I saw them outside. I kept driving by. " Manuel rubs his chin. "Maybe it's the right time to attack the pack that bought Shane's land. Can you imagine the look on Shane's face if we take over his old territory?" "Now you're talking. I like that. The land that Shane fought so damn hard to keep from us. Hell yes" Manny chuckles

"Why the hell haven't you contacted me? Where is the b***h that you have been so busy f*****g that you have forgotten about me?" A 5'5 black haired yells while walking over to Manuel with her hands on her hips. "b***h, didn't I tell you that my brother and I had some important matters to tend to. What the hell are you going here?" Manuel looks at her with a frustration

Manny shook his head. "Hello to you to Tomi. I can't say that's is a pleasure to see you. But I'll be lying Manuel I'm going outside to speak with the men about the little matter we just talked about. You seem to have your hands full. Handle that." He points at the

woman.

She rolls her eyes at him then she looks at Manuel "Yeah handle me. I wish you would try."

Manuel takes a deep breath "Tomi take your a*s home. I don't have time for your bullshit" He walks out of the room.

She starts walking around the house going from room to room looking for a woman. After she doesn't replace any women here. "Damn I thought for sure that his a*s was up to something. I wonder what important matter are they up to." Tomi walks outside to look around. She's looking at some of the men thinking "damn their handsome asses sure do look familiar

At the palace, all eyes besides Shane are on Winter as Nick is leaning close to Aurora's neck and is sniffing her. Winter kisses Shane's arm. "It seems that Nicholas has a good mate. He deserves a second chance."

Shane kisses the top of her head. "Yes, I agree he does deserve it. I'm happy for him." He's looking at Mick introducing Little Gem to Aurora.

"Damn, is Winter not going to say anything." Parker is talking to Harper through their link.

Harper looks at her than at Winter "I take it that she's okay with it. Or she putting up one amazing dar......

"Yep" Parker nods her head

Angie is looking at Little Gem in Nick's arms wondering "does he have another mate and if so where is she" Nick takes his mate's hand and walks over to Winter and Shane. "It looks like we four need to talk." "Queen Winter, this must be King Shane. Or should I say your McDreamy?" Aurora hugs Winter.

"Hi Roe, yes this is my McDreamy. It's good to see you." Winter is hugging her.

Shane and Nicholas's chuckle looking at their mates.

Aurora looks at Little Gem then at Little Star. "Wait a minute " She sniffs Little Gem "Win is this your pup?"

Winter nods her head. "It's a long story. Let's discuss it in there." She's pointing to the sitting room.

"Oh okay," Roe is looking at Nicholas confused.

When they walk into the room. Shane closes the door behind them. Nicholas is looking at his mate concerned that she'll have a problem with Little Gem. He has already decided if Auroura does then he'll reject her. No one is more important to him than his daughter. Shane pats his back and then they all sit down.

Winter tells Aurora everything from the beginning when she and Nicholas were mates until now. She looks at Nick. "Roe, he's a good man with a big heart. I don't blame him for choosing his mother over me. I would have done the same thing to save my mother. As for our twins as I said we're co-parenting. Which is working out much better than I expected. I hope that you will accept our daughters. You and I have known each other since we were two years old. You are one of my oldest and dearest friends. I know that they will be in good hands."

Aurora takes Little Gem from Nicholas ."Win I have always told your a*s that you were rare. Superfecundation pregnancy just proved that I was right all along. It looks like we four have two little ones to raise."

Nicholas kisses her cheek "Thank you for being so understanding."

"How could I not understand. Just look at these beautiful little faces." Aurora kisses the top of Little Gem's head. "Now let talk about these rogues then Winter and I need to discuss merging our hotel and restaurant together. It seems that we're merging everything today." She laughs

"So it seems we are." Winter looks at Nick and nods her head. Then she looks at Shane and smiles

Shane winks at her and kisses her forehead. "I have a meeting right after we are done with that jerk"

"Let's hope you don't have to kill him. Today is a good day so far." Winter shook her head then attention goes to Aurora.

Aurora is telling them about the night she smelt the rogues. Shane is figuring that the rogues were looking for him after seeing that it was a different pack they moved on. Nicholas isn't getting a good feeling about it and he wants her and her pack to move with him as soon as possible. Aurora agreed to that tomorrow. She has to tell her pack first that she has found her mate and they are moving again after just settling in.

Winter's phone beeps, and she reads the text. She looks at Shane and then at Roe. "The sooner you move the better. Maybe we don't_" She stops in the middle of her sentence. "Damn that's it. I'm changing the name of the palace to meet your mate." She's walking out of the room.

Shane, Nicholas, and Aurora are walking behind her. They are wondering who found their mate now.

Aurora walks beside Winter. "Who is he?"

"That is King Kristoff Fontaine. The King of the sea." Winter looks at her

"I wasn't too far off when I said he was a rogue fish." Roe is looking at Kristoff burying his head in her sister's neck.

Shane and Nicholas look at each other. Shane leans close to him "Your mate's sister just save the Fish King's life. I have planned his death in my head so many times."

Nicholas chuckles. "So had I"

Sabrina walks into Irving's bedroom. He's looking out the window. She noticed that he has been quiet since he and Nicholas returned from the palace yesterday. During dinner, he only said about three words. She thought that he would tell her why Reese wanted to see him. She opened their link but he has blocked her out. She walks over to stand beside him and is looking out the window. "Something out there must be very interesting"

He shook his head "No, not really.

"What did Reese have to say? Is there anything new about the bastards that are plotting to kidnap our grandkids?" She's looking at him concerned

"No" He shook his head again. "They wouldn't allow me to see them. Damn it I have f****d up so bad that Winter hates me. She denied me from seeing our grandkids. Damn it. Before you say that I'm only upset because of who Winter is. That's not it. Right now, I could care less about her status or his next mate status. Let me rephrase that. As long as it's not a rogue. I want to spend some time with Nicolasa. Shantana also because I realized they are a package deal. Nicholas made that clear on the drive back home. " Irving turns to look at her "There was a picture of Winter and the twins on Shane's desk. He has it sitting on it so proudly. But I didn't see that at the time. Nor did I understand how he and our son could accept the situation. So I was wondering how those two get along so well. After listening to our son talking bout the twins I realize that he and Wilder love them both equally. Who am I to disapprove or to say anything negative about it. All I want is my son back and for those two little ones to be safe."

"Well now. It took the loss of your son to realize that you can't mess around in other people's life. But I know you and there is something else on your mind. "She's patting his arm.

"Dollar Bill and Gus I have been trying to remember all the places they like to change at. I have narrowed it down. I'm planning to talk with Nicholas about it when he arrives. I don't want to overstep my boundaries again." Irving looks at her and sees that she's communicating with someone.

Sabrina smiles then she laughs "Guess what Nick has found his second chance mate. She's an Alpha and a friend of Winter's. He said that she and her pack is moving here tomorrow."

Irving smiles and mumbles "thank you Moon Goddess for not condemning my son for my sin."

She wraps her arms around him and looks up at him. "Is good for you that she didn't."

"Can you ever forgive me for being stupid?" He wraps his arms around her and kisses the top of her head.

"Yes, this time. Don't let it happen again. If so I'm rejecting your a*s" Sabrina lays her head against his chest.

"Don't worry dear, there will not be a next time " Irving sniffs her hair. "I promise"

****

In a bar in neutral territory, Gus and several other rogues are partying before they make their move to kidnap the twins. Dollar Bill is sitting at a table looking at an old blueprint of the palace. "Damn I wonder has my old buddy made any changes" He mumbles while studying the blueprint.

Gus is behind Dollar Bill dancing with a she-wolf. "Man leave that s**t alone until tomorrow. Tonight is about partying and getting our sticks dipped. "He's spanking the woman's b**t.

Dollar Bill hit the table with his fist. "Damn it, Gus you should be taking this s**t seriously. We both know that Pilar and Reese aren't dummies. Now we have o out smart Winter, Shane, and Nicholas. I don't know about you but I for one don't want to get caught. "s**t man lighten up a little. No one is going to get caught. Besides you're wasting your time reading that s**t. I already have a plan and know how to get into the palace." Gus blows kisses the woman and dances toward the door.

"Hell, none of his damn plans has worked before. I can't take any chances I need to know all the ways to get the hell out of there." Dollar bill looks at Gus as he closes the door. "*****"

Shane, Nicholas, and Kristoff are walking out of Shane's office. Harper and Parker have been teasing Angie about being mated to the fish King. They kept telling her that she was going to drown. Or maybe she'll turn into a fish. Winter and Aurora have been laughing at Angie because she's taking every word the twins say seriously.

Kristoff looks at Winter thinking "She is the perfect woman for me. But since I've met my beautiful mate, I can't reject her." He walks over to Angie " Little Mermaid are you ready to leave." He extends his hand to her

Angie looks at him confused and shook her head "I can't breathe underwater. Nope, nope you're not drowning me, Mister. I'll never be fish. Nope not Angie"

All the women burst out laughing. Shane and Nicholas are also laughing. Kristoff tries to hold his laughter in but he couldn't. Angie is looking around the room at everyone laughing. She folds her arms 'I don't see anything funny." She shook her head and frowns. "My beautiful Little Mermaid. You won't drown or turn into a fish. After we have completed the mating process you will be able to breathe underwater as well as on land as you do now." Kristoff kisses the top of her head

Angie looks at Parker and Harper "You two haven't changed one bit. That was so mean." She looks at her mate "I'm ready but tomorrow morning we have to be at my pack. My sister is moving to her mate's pack.

"That reminds me, Roe, I want to buy that land from you." Winter looks at Shane. "I miss that tree where we had our first kiss." She winks at him

Shane chuckles "To be honest so do I. You and I have had a lot of first there. It would be nice to keep it in the family. But why do I believe you have another reason" He sits down beside her.

Winter kisses his cheek "I have a strong feeling that the Stonewalls will go there. I want to be there when they do. As a matter of fact, I believe we all should be there to greet them." She looks around the room

"I don't know who you all are talking about greeting. Nay and I sure would love to be on the greeting wagon" Traylor looks at Shane as he and Nayla walk into the room.

Shane walks over to him and does the bro hug. So does Nicholas. Shane introduces Traylor and Nayla to everyone.

"It's been a long time. I hope you have found your mate." Nayla hugs Kristoff and she hears a growl. She looks at Angie "I take that as a yes. Congratulations"

Traylor wraps his arms around her and stares at Kristoff. "Nay who is this man that you felt free to hug."

Nayla laughs "Kris and I are old friends. We use to play together when we were kids. His father and my father were friends."

"Oh okay. He's safe since he has a mate." Tray narrow his eye looking at Kristoff.

Kristoff pulls Angie close to him "On that note me and my mate will make our exit." He turns to look at Winter and Shane. "I and half of my warriors will be there. I can't leave my land unprotective since Manuel Stonewall has fallen in love with it." Nicholas walks over to the bassinet looking at the twins. Aurora walks behind him and wraps her arms around him. "I can't leave my pack unprotective overnight. So I should be on my way."

He turns to look at her. "My mother and Beta are in charge of my pack tonight. You're not getting out of my sight until we are marked and completed the mating process." Nicholas kisses the top of her thinking "the last time I left my mate it ended with me rejecting Win and I never got the chance to mark her. I'm not making the same mistake twice."

After everyone had left Nayla and Winter sat on the sofa talking and showing each other pictures of their pups. Shane and Traylor are on the patio. Shane is updating his cousin about the Manny, Manuel, and the kidnapping plot.

"It seems that I and my mate visit you at the right time. I know how they have been a pain in your a*s for years. This time all the bastards will die. Damn Jackie is alive. Her a*s needs to die too." Traylor pat Shane's shoulder

"Jackie is living on thin ice. I do mean thin. Star Eyes has already set her execution day. Man, I'm glad you're here for this. It's been a long time since we have fought side by side. My mother is looking forward to seeing you. She even baked us brownies. The peanut butter brownies we use to eat." Shane looks over at the twins

"Man no one is touching those two. I can see that in your and Nick's eyes. I would die before anyone takes my little cousins." Traylor is walk in behind Shane

"Thank you" Shane stops when he is between the two bassinets. "Optimus and I will go on a f*****g killing spree. Nobody harms what's mine. These beautiful little ones and that beautiful woman over there is mine. I would kill anyone that hurts them"
