Alpha's Second Chance by Salani

CHAPTER 10

OLIVIA

What a day. If I had been counting on having a quiet first day, I was very wrong. First fighting that annoying guy, Ryan, I think, was his name. Then after I got home, I showered and decided to go for a walk, I had graduated early, so I didn't have school I needed to attend.

When I was walking around checking out our new pack, I visited my grandparents. We met them yesterday, too, after the meeting with Alpha Logan. But they were happy to see me again. She told me I looked like my mom, except I looked stronger and more capable of protecting myself. They liked that. After talking, I told them about how I always enjoyed being around kids. And that singing was something I loved, as I could easier express myself more that way.

My grandma told me I should try to go look at the kindergarten that is right next to the packhouse. She said that the adults looking after the kids there always looked for more to help out. So I decided to go and have a look.

When I came there, there was no confusion about where I should go, as I could hear the noise of many kids playing. Before I knew it, I was dancing around and singing Disney songs with them. And I especially connected with one of the girls, the same girl I saved last night when she fell down the stairs. Alpha Logan's daughter Rosalie.

To begin with, I didn’t pay much attention to the few packmembers that came to see what was going on. But then more and more came, not that it bothered me. I was used to performing in front of others. Somehow, I knew it before I saw him when the crowd must have gotten Alpha Logan's attention.

For some reason, knowing he heard and saw this made me feel all warm and fuzzy. I stopped after a few more songs and promised that I would be back another day. Before I left, Rosalie made me say yes, to singing for her upcoming birthday. I had the feeling that this little girl would have me wrapped around her finger.

out on the lake and the river, I sense the change in Skye, who seems to be getting excited, and the sound of the forest going quiet. I stand up and look into the trees when I see them. The big midnight black wolf that I thought I saw the day we arrived. He is slowly coming out from the trees as if he is trying not to scare us. His scent tells me who it is. This huge wolf is Alpha Logan. He stops up and looks around me. Then turn to go look at some big rocks and disappear behind them. A few seconds later, Alpha Logan comes out from behind the rocks dressed in a pair of shorts. “Hey Olivia, you
