Chapter 120
It was past midnight by the time Jaxon and his family arrived at the snow maintain pack, exhausted from driving for so long.
Everyone had dazed off a little except Jaxon, who was on the steering wheel.
Everywhere was quiet with only the warriors on patrol around, giving the Alpha and his family a warm welcorne even when it was
night
Alice was asleep but woke up at their arrival to prepare something for them to rat
She had no idea when they would return and could not prepare anything ahead of time for them.
Taking over the kitchen got her busy and she always loved to cook for theas, especially when they enjoyed her meals and ahrays
asked for more.
To their surprise, the ald Alpha was still awake. Being in charge of the pack like he used to do years ago, he could not give sleep
to his eyes but as soon as they arrived, he suddenly fela sterpy, but waited for his grandsons to come first.
The boys were sleeping so Jason and Charles weat to carry them out of the car when Levi woke up and quickly tapped Philip.
“Brother, wake up. Don’t let them carry you out of the car like a baby,” Levi said and Philip’s eyes snapped opened instantly.
Jaxon and Charles laughed
“Who said its only babies who needs to be carried out of the car when sleeping?” Jaxon asked, wondering where Levi got that
idea from.
“Only habins are to be carried Levi insisted,
Jaxon felt the need to educate his sons and explained it to them,
“If your mother was sleeping in the car. I will carry her, not because she is a baby but because I don’t want to disturb her sleep
do you know why?”
“No, why!” Levi asked with confusion as Jaxon answered,
“Because slie’s precious to me and so is her sleep. So, in future when you find your mates, make sure that special okay?”
“Okay dad,” Levi responded and Philip smiled, as Jason said jokingly.
“Now you two nua-labies should get out of my car
“Yes dad.”
you treat them
rumbled and he said,
“Uncle Jax, I’m hungry
Jaxon scratched his hair frustratedly, “Me too.” He frowned before adding “but I doubt they have food for us. All the maids must
be sleeping”
He didn’t want to disturb Rowena and Gracie because they were both tired. Philip’s expression changed dramatically and he
asked again.
“Does that mean that we have to sleep hungry?”
“I don’t know Jut we can check the fridge for some leftover food,” Jaxon suggested but an idea popped into Levi’s mind from
what his father said earlier.
“Why don’t we cook Levi asked, both Charles and Jaxon exchanged knowing glances, as both of them did not know how to cook.
Jaxon used to cook when he was in Canada but could not remember the steps since it had been ages.
“G ook? I don’t know how to cook,” Jaxon said honestly, Levi was disappointed and frowned,
“Too bad dad, the way you spoke about in taking care of our mates incans we have to cook for them too. How are you able to
take care of mum when you can’t rook?”
Jaxon sighed with frustration and turned to Charles,
“Charles, Levi is asking you a question,” he said and hastened to the living room.
Charles looked at the boys and asked,
What is your problem?”
“Uncle Charles, do you know how to cook?” Levi asked him, Charles frowned a little and said.
“A little.”
What do you mean by lule?” Phillip asked him, Charles could feel a pending headache headed his way as he tried to find a way
to avoid the question.
“I can boil water, and add coffee to it. That is also cooking.”
“I don’t think he knows how to cook” Philip said to Levi, deflated, and Charles shook his head. These boys can not even boil
water but they can tell that he doesn’t know how to cook.
When the boys entered the living room and their noses wafted with the aroma of pasta, they both exchanged excited gazes.
“Seems like grandma is cooking.” Levi said excitedly, meaning that they weren’t going to go to bed hungry.
Levi agreed when Alpha Clinton called after them.
“Hey boys, haven’t you seen your grandpa?”
The boys went to hug Alpha Clinton before he went upstairs and the boys run to the kitchen, hugging their grandmother. and
saying,
“Grandma, we missed you, especially your food. We are lungry.” Levi said, Alice was so saddened that these big men and
women starved the little boys.
“Oh, poor boys. Go and freshen up. Dinner would be ready by the time you are done.”
The boys were excited and running to their rooms to said to their grandma,
Thank you, grandma, you are a life saver.
Alice smiled but she was upset at how the boys have gone hungry for so long and called Rowena and Gracie.
Why die you not feed them?” she asked seriously, Rowena and Gracie exchanged confused glances, as Rowena responded,
“Mom, we ate the last food you gave us for breakfast and as soon as the banle was over, we were on our way so how do you
expect us to cook in the car?”
Gracie laughed at Rowena excuse, seeing that Alice was not buying it.
“Stop messing with me. You know what I’m talking about,” Alice seriously. Rowena did not want to argue about it and stretched
her neck, trying to see what her mother was cooking.
“Yes mom, is the food ready? We all are hungry.”
“Then you all should help in the kitchen to make it faster. You were not the ones driving and only sat throughout the journey,”
Alice said in annoyance, Rowena felt helpless but before she could respond,
Levi and Philip appeared behind them,
“Grandma, we want to help you with supper everyday and you can teach us how to cook.”
The women were surprised because, this was the fastest, they saw the boys’ bath in their entire lifetime.
“The goddess bless you, young men for your beautiful souls,” Alice said with a smile.
When dinner was ready, the zeal attached to their morsels was enough indication that they were all hungry and when they went
to bed that night, Jaxon ensured to get all that he could not get on the journey from Rowena, making love to her, all through the
night.
The next day, Jaxon and Charles were busy at the office after training and letters went around to all the packs seeking allegiance
with them. By the time they were done, it was already night.
The signed allegiance arrived the next day and when they were being delivered, Levi spoke in a monotonous tone,
“Enjoy the peace for the next 14 years.”
Everyone who heard it sighed with relief, as no one wanted a war. Peare would always be chosen over contention.
