A/N: A little bit of time has passed since he last chapter but you'll understand why once you start reading so bare with me, okay?


Melissa slammed her fist on the counter, "Your never around anymore."

"It's called responsibility Liss," Peter shook his head, "I'm the Alpha, leader of the pack, I have certain responsibilities to uphold."

"Of course you do," Melissa replied sassily.

"Liss, I don't have time for your sass and in fact I don't have the patients," Peter gritted his teeth, her unending nagging was driving him nuts. Something had changed in her, she become...different.

"My nagging?!" She glared, "You don't have a clue what I'm capable of!"

Peter rubbed his temples, he never raised his voice to her before or abused her in anyway but he was fed up, pausing he drowned out the noise and focused on her heartbeat but something was wrong, dreadfully wrong. Without saying a word he grabbed her by the shoulders, "Sit down!" He demanded.

"What are you doing?! Let me go!" She cried out.

Peter forcing her into a chair she pressed his ear against her stomach.

"Wha-?!"

"Sh!" Peter interrupted her and shushed her.

Melissa's eyes were wide as she couldn't figure out what he was doing.

"Liss...you have two heartbeats," Peter stood up shocked, "You know what the means, right?"

Melissa stared blankly.

"We're pregnant!" He picked her up by the waste and swung her around, "We're pregnant!"

Melissa was so happy she started to cry.

"Sh, don't cry," Peter cupped her face and kissed away her tears. It all made sense now, why she was so moody and craved weird things, she was pregnant.

"I've been so cruel to you," She whimpered.

"Nah," Peter blew it off, "Liss we're gonna have a baby, our own baby."

Melissa hugged Peter tight, "How could I have not known?" She whispered.

Peter just smiled not giving an answer.

Just then Scott came in from school, "I'm home," He muttered, he hadn't been exactly enthralled to have Peter living with them, in fact he had been pretty miserable. He paused and looked at their smiling faces, "Is there a reason you too are both grinning like clowns?"

Melissa smile faded as she looked at Scott, "Scott, Peter and I...well," Melissa could find her words, "Were going to have...a baby."

"A baby?" Scott's jaw hit the floor, "What ever happened to protected sex?!"

"Not if your married," Peter scoffed.

"It's bad enough you married my mom but now you're...you're having a baby with her!" Scott shook his head furiously and raced out the door.

Melissa's eyes glossed over but Peter wrapped his arms around her waste and sighed, "He'll understand one day."

"I know," Melissa whispered, "I hope someday soon."


Peter held Melissa's hand tightly and kissed her forehead as a wave of exhaustion hit her.

"It's a girl," A nurse walked in and passed the beautiful baby to Peter who rocked and cradled her.

"This is my baby, your my baby," Peter cooed, "She's perfect," Peter passed her to Melissa.

"Bring in Scott, would you?" Melissa asked kindly.

Peter nodded and left, "Hey Scott."

Scott looked up, "Is she okay?

"Come on," Peter smirked and gestured to the room.

As angry as Scott was, when he saw his new baby sister his heart melted, she looked as if an angel had fallen straight from heaven and into their arms, she had perfect blue eyes and beautiful golden blonde hair.

"Want to hold her?" Melissa looked up at him.

"Uh no," Scott shook his head but found himself holding her anyways, "Hi, I'm your brother," Scott whispered then smirked, "Unfortunately for you, you're as ugly as your dad," Scott lied to the child.

Melissa laughed, "Well I think she's beautiful because she looks like her dad."

Peter sat beside Melissa and let out a slight chuckle, "I'll take both those statements as compliments."

"What's her name?" Scott cradled the little one.

"Melody," Melissa beamed, "Melody Grace Hale."


Melody was a nocturnal baby, she stayed up most the night but was also a quiet baby who didn't cause much problems, except for when the moon was full. When the full moon took place Melody cried all night long.

A babies cry pierced the sharp night, Peter and Melissa rarely slept on the full moon regardless but Melody kept on their toes.

"I got her," Peter rubbed his eyes and stood up to go care for her.

"You sure?" Melissa yawned.

"I can't sleep on a full moon anyways," He nodded.

Picking up the child from her cradle, Peter rocked her until her cries stopped, "You okay Princess?" He cooed.

The one month old just whimpered.

"Shh," He reassured her as his eyes turned crimson as he looked at the full moon, a slight growl came from his throat but quickly stopped when Melody broke into her sharp cries.

Melody let out her howl for comfort as her eyes briefly flickered golden but went unnoticed by Peter.

"It's your first full moon," Peter finally sat down in a rocking chair, "You'll get use to it," He continued, "The full moon does crazy stuff to people, it's were the term lunatic comes from. The full moon brings in hide tides and a lot of babies are born on full moons, you were one of them."

Melody looked up at her dimly lit father, flashing her gums as an attempt to smile.

"You come from a very special family," Peter caressed her face, "A strong family, a close knit family, more then a mere family...a pack."

The silvery light laced the father and daughter in a radiant glow. Peter told her a many of stories of her family and what she will become one day, the great power she will wield and the responsibility that comes with it. The curse she will bare and how it can be a gift if used properly.

Peter smiled, he had rarely done any good in his life but the bundle of joy he now held in his hands was just perfect, his life felt perfect. He was the alpha, he had a beautiful wife and a perfect daughter but he knew all good attracted evil, he knew light would eventually bring darkness, just like the setting sun and the rising moon, it was the cycle of life, there was no perfection that did not come with a cost. But Peter looked out the window to see the rays of light, the dawn of a new day, the rising sun and looking down into his arms was a sleeping angel.
