Accidental Surrogate for Alpha by Caroline Above Story Chapter 117
Chapter 117 – Ella Asks Henry for Advice
Ella
When Sinclair and Hugo finally leave for the pack headquarters, Henry and I move into our favorite sitting room, returning to the puzzle we began solving together earlier this week. Seated across from the older wolf, I pretend to scan the scattered puzzle pieces for matches, while really sneaking peeks up at him. “So what do you make of all this?” I ask curiously. “Lydia and the Prince?”
Henry grimaces, “I never liked that woman. But trying to argue with headstrong young Alphas’ convinced they’ve found their mate is like beating your head against a wall.” He offers me a tender smile. “You’ll see soon enough. You can do everything in your power to try and teach your pups the important lessons and prepare them for the real world – but at the end of the day you have to let them make their own mistakes – it’s the only way they learn.”
“Does it ever hurt any less? Or get any easier to watch them go down the wrong path?” I inquire softly.
“Not a damn bit.” Henry shares grimly. However despite his grim look, his eyes sparkle when he looks over at me. “Luckily, that doesn’t seem to be a problem for me anymore. Lydia is out of the picture, my boys are friends again for the first time since losing their mother, and Dominic is on his way to being King.”
“Dominic just told me how his mother died this morning.” I confess, reaching for the old wolf’s gnarled hand. “I’m so sorry you went through that. It must have been terrible for you to be left alone with a pack to rule and two young boys to raise on your own, in the midst of all your grief.”
He nods, “looking back I don’t have the first idea how I survived it. The grief almost destroyed me… and I’m ashamed to say I let it destroy Dominic and Roger’s relationship.” Henry sighs. “I haven’t always been the best father, but I can tell you right now that it was a hell of a lot easier to be one when I had my mate.”
I know what he means. When I thought I was going to be bringing this baby into the world alone, I’d been terrified. Very few people who plan for children expect to end up alone with the responsibility, and though I’d been one of the rare few – it certainly hadn’t been by choice. I was thrilled to finally succeed, but the stakes seemed a thousand times higher without a partner. I’m still afraid of course, but it feels so much better to be part of a team. I know that as long as Sinclair is alive, I will always have someone to lean on and my pup will have two loving parents to guide him through the world.
