Ronnie was at the house picking up the last of her things from childhood. The old onesies their mom demanded they keep and the baby blanket that Ronnie slept with until she was seven. Bradley tried not to fidget or keep his distance as he helped her with the box. But it was hard when she smelled like another Alpha and was about to have his first pup.

"When're you due again?" he asked as he set the box down on the table in the entryway.

Ronnie struggled down the last few steps with a hand pressed into her lower back. She chuckled, relieved when she finally made it. "Literally any day now."

"Come on, sit down for a sec." He urged her into the living room where she gratefully lowered herself down onto the couch, hands absentmindedly running over her large belly. Brad shifted on his feet as he watched her. "You nervous?"

"No, not really." Ronnie shrugged as she smiled up at him. "You know I always wanted kids."

Ever since becoming the Luna of Red Sky Pack, Ronnie had this assurance around her that had never been there before. This calm confidence. A certain kind of power.

Brad nodded. "Yeah."

The sound of tires crunching over gravel floated in from outside. Ronnie made a small noise as she pulled herself off of the couch with a bit of help from her brother.

"That's Jake. I'll make sure to text you when baby decides to make their entrance."

Bradley walked her out the door. Throwing a curt nod at Jake who remained in the driver's seat of his truck as Brad put the box in the bed. Ronnie was apprehensive as she looked up at her brother, lip caught between her teeth as she mulled something over. But Brad knew what she was thinking about. He grew up with her, knew her like the back of his hand.

He may not have been her Alpha anymore, but he was still her brother.

"That kid's gonna be the most insanely loved baby in the world," he said as he pulled her in for a hug. "You know that, right?"

She wrapped her arms around him as best she could with the belly in the way. "Yeah. I know."

Blue River Pack:

lead by Bradley Bradshaw, his second in command Pete Mitchell the pack is strong and historied, one of the longest-standing wolf packs in the Americas while the pack is 16 strong, a few notable Betas are: - Bob Floyd, largest in the pack - Natasha Trace, fastest in the pack - And Dylan Kazansky, son of Tom Kazansky and youngest in the pack

Would you want to be a member of Blue River Pack?

"Her past in Blue River and her future with Red Sky.

How could she possibly save it all when she felt crushed beneath the weight of it too?"

Especially Bea during that thunderstorm when she and Bradley are still in the early stages of the relationship. And he runs from his place to hers, as a wolf, because he remembers that storms are something she's scared off.

And he braves the storm, running there anyway, because she's his mate and he can feel her anxiety.

AND THAT'S WHEN SHE KNOWS!

I'm sorry I'm just having a lot of feelings <333

Bea wrapped her sweater around herself just a little bit tighter as she opened the door, heart pounding in her ears over the sound of the harsh rain and the peals of thunder.

"B-Bradley?" she questioned.

The giant of a man stood on her porch soaked to the bone, eyes fading from red to that warm chocolate brown. His chest heaved, panting for breath.

"I just, uh..." He wouldn't meet her eye as he searched for the words, hands on his hips. "I know you don't like storms. Wanted to make sure you were okay."

Lightning lit up the street behind him and Bea jumped back from the door, blue eyes wide. Bradley reached out a hand, but he hesitated, unsure if she would want him to touch her now. Everything was so fragile between them, he didn't want to break it.

"Did you - Did you run here?" she asked, remembering that his house was on the other side of town.

"Yeah."

Overcome with emotion, overcome with the realization that this man truly cared, Bea threw herself at him. He caught her easily, wet arms circling her shoulders as she clung to his torso. His clothes were freezing, but the flesh beneath was warm, and Bea burrowed into that.

She is the first full human born in the Bradshaw family in 100 years. Leaving her an outsider to the werewolf pack her family has led for generations. After their father's death three months ago, her brother Bradley became the new Alpha. He is worried and overthinks, but his pack and Ronnie have faith in him. She is loyal, caring, intelligent, and hardworking. She longs to belong within the pack, but knows that she never really can. To make up for this, she studies her family's history, werewolf biology, and werewolf legend.

bradley takes some representatives of Blue River to the 45th annual werewolf consortium event in Oregon. lots of packs are there.

they go to the bonfire that closes out the day of events

his eyes lock with the most beautiful wolf he's ever seen across the clearing and they have their mates! moment with the firelight flickering over their hair

but she runs away and he doesn't know which pack she's from and he's so, so hurt

he doesn't know if he should chase her, because he can feel the pull, but if she's rejecting him... and he has a responsibility to Blue River, he can't just go haring off.

So he goes back to Blue River and is just in the worst mood ever

he didn't tell anyone about her, because he is dumb about feelings

he can feel the bond aching and aching, but it doesn't sever. he doesn't know what's going on. doesn't she hurt, too?

then three weeks later he gets a call from Penny at the Hard Deck

saying that three wolves are at the bar wanting to talk to the Alpha of Blue River

He stomps down to the bar ready to release all his pent up hurt man feelings as Alpha rage on whoever these guys are (not being a consumer of romance novels, he has not put two and two together)

and there

there she is

it's a cloudy Pacific Northwest day but it's like the sun is shining

she says

I'm sorry I made you wait. I couldn't leave my brothers.

and he notices the preteens for the first time

turns out that she and her siblings got caught in a Bellmoral-esque situation that wasn't physically abusive but was still deeply messed up. they had been left back in their old pack's territory while she went to the conference with their horrible Alpha as collateral. it took her three weeks when they got back to organize their escape.

they've been driving day and night for like three days now, they are absolutely exhausted

and bradley just feels all of the frustration melt away as she sways on her feet

Welcome to Blue River, he says

he steps forward but lets her come the rest of the way to him

scent marking is the traditional way to welcome a new member to the pack.

she tilts her head to the right, baring the heart side of her throat to him.

he bites harder than he means too, he's just so eager, but she just shudders and sways into his body

his his his

her brothers are not super impressed by this, but Bradley has time to win them over.

literally the entire Blue River pack has been watching this. they are still pretty confused about what's going on.

they go back to the pack house and settle the new three members of the pack into a spare room. she stays with her brothers for the first few nights, because werewolves are very big on platonic cuddling and they've had a hard few days

and she needs to adjust, too

but that first full moon

they all go out and run

and she and Bradley veer away from the group

and some fun stuff happens for them, it all goes very well considering that they're in a forest with lots of sticks on the ground.

Ronnie is so relieved that her dumb brother has actually found someone, it's a big load off of her mind.

Quotes:

"Werewolves are just an urban legend - one of the oldest ones in the book!"

"I'm scared but I'm trying. Not to quote Taylor Swift, but this is me trying."

She's lived in Rhode Island her entire life. Her parents live there, her two much younger siblings live there. A tiny little coastal town with few people and prospects. And when she comes back from grad school with a degree in library science and a freshly broken heart she finds zero job opportunities and zero dating opportunities in her little town. That's the final straw. She needed out of there and fast. So when she found a job, an interview, and an offer in another small town across the country in Washington - she thought it sounded like a great fresh start. Only, on her first day, a large lumberjack-looking man with a mustache comes into the library and turns her life, her world, completely upside down.

YES FE!! Inter-pack family dinners are often chaotic but they make Ronnie so so happy. It’s her two families coming together, of course it makes her happy.

the first time they tried it tho it was definitely a disaster. Tensions were mega high since it was the first time the entires packs were together in one room since….well since they were ripping each other’s throats out. People are dishing the sass and snide remarks and someone definitely “accidentally” flung their mashed potatoes across the table into Bob’s face. Did Ronnie cry afterwards when everyone went home? Ye……and Jake felt AWFUL about it and gave the pack a strong lecture.
