After dropping Channing and Landon off at the pack house, | drove back to the diner to pick up Tessa and Sarah. |
didn’t want either one of them to walk htonight. It was below freezing and neither one of them had their
wolves to keep them warm.
| had pulled up and parked when Landon was in my head.
“Alpha is looking for you.”
“Ill talk to him when | get home,” | replied.
“Aspen, something serious is going on. You need to be careful and be on the lookout for wolves who are not a
part of the pack. The council is getting crafty,” he warned me.
“I'm picking up the girls now and will be staying at their place all night. You can debriefin the morning and
then we can start our hunt.”
“Just be careful, Aspen,” he said before closing the link.
| sat in my truck, thinking about what Landon said. | was going to have to get Tessa a car. | didn’t like her walking
around with a threat hanging over our heads. The more | spent with her, the more |
understood my father’s overprotectiveness of his mate. The council hurt her and he was going for blood.
“Hey Handsome,” Tessa opened the passenger door pullingfrom my thoughts. “Is everything okay?” She
asked, climbing up into the seat. Sarah was climbing into the back seat.

“Yeah, just work. | brushed it off. “You two hungry? Pizza!”
“I love that | don’t have to put out for food,” Sarah teased.
“Sarah.” Tesse gasped and | chuckled. “You can walk.”
“Now, Now, ladies, | was buying food, even without sex.” Tema smackedin the chest and | groaned. Her
checks burned and she was trying not to smirk, which hadgrinning
| backed out of the parking space before taking her hand in mine. This was my girl and | wanted everyone to
know she was mine.
Making our way into their apartment, Sarah rushed off to have a shower first, leavingwith Tessa, who went to
change. | took a seat on the tiny couch and pulled out my phone to order pizza for us. | didn’t mind having to
feed Sarah as well.
Tessa cin after changing out of her uniform and sat down beside me. | throw an arm over her shoulders and
she snuggled her check into my chest.
“Your brother seems nice,” she mumbled, while | finished the order on the app.
“Yeah, he’s alright. A bit grumpy since he went off to college.*
“Can | ask you a question?” she stammered. | pocketed my phone and focused my attention on the woman in my
arms.
“You know I'm an open book for you,” | reminded her.
“It's just you and your brother don’t look alike,” | laughed before she could finish. She pushed off my chest to
look at me.
“What?” she furrowed her brow.

“If you want to get technical, he’s my stepbrother. Our parents are second-chance mates. It's a long story but
basically, his mom got pregnant when she was young and then was forced out of her pack. She stayed away
from packs until the company she worked for sent her here. They didn’t know they were second-chance mates
until she got pregnant with my sister. There's a bunch of other things in there but that’s the gist of it.” |
explained.
“Oh,” she exhaled.
“Did you really not know? | thought everyone knew how the pack gained another Luna.”
“I don’t pay much attention to things like that, I'm sorry.” she shrugged. She snuggled back into my chest.
“What happened to the other Luna?” she whispered as she drew circles on my abs.
“My mother passed away a few days after | was born.” | kissed her head.
“I'm so sorry, Aspen,” she gasped.
“Thank you. It’s hard because | never knew her. But Ryley has always treatedlike her son from the moment
we met. She was also my second chance.” | squeezed her tightly.
“Does your father feel the sway about Channing? He's an alpha wolf, right?”
“And my father accepted him as his own. My father adopted him and she adopted me. They also got married. It
would be a perfect relationship if my father wasn’t so stubborn.” | told her.
“They must really love each other if they fell in love without knowing they were mates,” she shrugged.

“We almost lost her, twice. First, the council took her and suppressed her Luna wolf under silver. She was
pregnant with my sister at the tbut didn’t know. Then her ex-mate, Channing's father kidnapped her and she
almost died when the pack house exploded. Her mother was able to save her daughter and granddaughter. Luna
wolves can heal with their blood. Mom, also saved my life when Channing and | were in a car accident. She gave
up her identity when she saved my life but she was willing to do anything to save me.”
“She sounds like such a wonderful Luna.”
“I would like for you to meet her.” Her body tensed. “Whenever you are ready. There's no pressure.” | finished.
“Shower’s free,” Sarah called out. Tessa pulled back and looked up atagain.
“Go shower, the pizza will be here soon.” | pecked her lips.
“Okay,” she breathed out before pecking my lips and standing up from the couch. | watched as she walked down
the small hallway to the bathroom.
“With everything going on, | want her to move into the pack house,” Bliz grumbled.
“I can’t force her to move, no matter how much | want her to. Something is happening and until the council has
been dealt with, it won't be safe for her to stay here.” | sighed. There has to be a way to keep her safe without
her knowing. | cringed at my thoughts, hearing my father in my head. | need to get a few warriors to watch over
her and Sarah until this mess is cleaned up.
The buzzer rang and | knew it was the pizza. | walked out of the apartment to the front doors to retrieve the food
and drinks | had ordered.
This would be easier if they would just move into the pack house. wo Chapter Eighte
