“Beau Reinhardt has a nice ring to it,” Wilder says, his smile growing when Emilia frowns.

“Do you not want him to have the pack’s last name?”

Dalton chuckles. “Of course we do, sugar. Just like we want to share a pack name with you, Hawk, and Jasper.”

“I don’t understand.”

Nikolai frowns alongside her. “You wish us to take Emilia’s last name?”

“Da,” I confirm. “We talk during labor. Good way to honor Emilia’s first pack. Boys do not change last name, but we all share.”

“Ahhh,da.” Nikolai nods. “I like.”

Tears fill Emilia’s eyes as she glances around the room. “Really? This is what you all want?”

“What we want is you.” Gavin leans over Camden so he can kiss her forehead and then Beau’s.

“I think they’d really like that,” she finally says, snuggling Beau closer to her.

Hawk and Jasper are half asleep on the bed, so I pick up Jasper and carry him into the other room where a pack-sized bed is set up. I lay him down gently seconds before Nikolai comes in with Hawk.

Once they’re both settled, Nikolai hugs me. “We are fathers.”

“We are,” I agree. “To three boys.”

He nods. “It was good idea to take their last name.”

“We thought so.” I grin when he rolls his eyes. “Did you ever think we would find this?”

Nikolai considers me for a moment before nodding. “I did. I hoped.”

“As did I. Let us leave them to sleep. I must kiss my omega.”

We both rush for the door, but he pushes me into the door frame and makes it to our mate first.

Asshole.

He’s lucky I love him, although, if he keeps testing me, he will find out that I love her a hell of a lot more than I do him.

Giving him a moment with her, I look around at our pack, and I realize these are the people I will spend the rest of my life with. Some of them as friends, but others as so much more.

Now, all we need to do is get the custody case taken care of so we can begin our lives together.

Epilogue

Emilia

One month later

Standing behind the table in the courtroom, I hold my breath as I await the judge’s decision.

“I’ve reached a decision,” Judge Livingston says as she glances between me and Simon. “After listening to each side’s arguments and reviewing the court records for the criminal offense by Alpha Mitchell, I feel there is only one way this can go.”

“Judge Livingston,” Simon’s lawyer cuts in. “The case against Alpha Mitchell should have no relevance to today’s hearing.”

The judge snorts. “If you think I’m not going to take into account how the child was conceived and the laws Alpha Mitchell broke, you’re going to be sadly mistaken. As I was saying, I am granting sole custody to the mother, Omega Reinhardt, and Pack Reinhardt. I am also granting Omega Reinhardt’s request to allow her pack to adopt Beau Reinhardt. Alpha Mitchell’s parental rights are hereby revoked, and he shall have no contact with the child unless agreed upon by Omega Reinhardt, her pack, and the Los Angeles County Superior Court.”

“This isn’t fair,” Simon roars. “He’s my son!”
