And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Surprisingly enough, we never had a library in our pack, which I had never really considered being an issue until I started researching what other packs did and noticed a library was actually very common within packs. Which, of course, made me feel like a complete idiot.

Ivy was going to be excited. I knew she would.

The new building finished only just over a month ago and was filled with so many unique books. Not to mention we had requested books from the citadel and they had been more than happy to give them to us to educate younger pack members.

There was no fight anymore with the council as they had replaced their entire staff at a majority rule of the packs, so with the new council instilled, changes could be made. However, it didn't stop us from worrying to an extent.

There were still rogue players around we had to be careful about.

Ones that weren't happy with the changes we made, and the damage we caused.

The moment I had told James Ivy wanted to go out towards the play group with the children, there was a burst of excitement across his face as he started rambling on about packing a picnic and making sure we took the blanket, making sure Ivy had enough water, making sure the twins had their snacks.

It was literally one thing after another as Hale and I stood stunned by the way James was acting. "Dude, calm down," Hale laughed.

"Hale's right. You're acting crazy right now."

It didn't matter what we said, he just kept mumbling as he went around taking care of things. I wasn't sure what his damn issue was, but it was probably best we stayed out of his way.
