Chapter 98: Dinner Discussions

Ivy.

There was nothing like spending the day with my mates and the rest of the pack. After the warm invitation I had had from a few of the female wolves of the pack to join their play group, I was more than thrilled to entertain the idea.

Kate and my mother had suggested familiarizing myself with other women of the pack would help me be a better Luna.

I was so nervous about the idea of them accepting me. Differing from them, I had spent months watching them gaze at me with wary eyes.

I had thought they perceived me as a monster, but in the end, I was wrong.

 

There would always be women in the pack who didn’t like me. I expected that. It was the same in the real world. Not everyone is going to like you, but I was pleased these women could accept me as I was.

I wanted to be a Luna they respected and wanted around.

After a fun, eventful day, I made my way with James, Hale, Talon, and my mother back up to the house to prepare for dinner. The smiles and conversations still on our faces from the fun we all had.

It would have been complete if only Damian had graced us with his presence.

“I cannot believe that you spun that little boy around like that, Hale.” We made our way through the front door and I laughed. “I thought he was going to puke.”

“Hell no, he was having the time of his life. Plus, his mother didn’t seem to care, so why ruin mine and the boys’ fun?”

He did have a point, but as I looked at him with a small smirk on my lips, I couldn’t help but picture him with our children.

“Perhaps that’s true, but he was still so tiny, and I cannot believe that he didn’t cry. He just laughed and laughed and kept wanting you to do it again.”

Thad never really seen Hale in his kind of way, but seeing him like this made me excited for the future. He was going to be a good father. I had no doubt about that.

Even James and Talon were more than pleased with being able to spend time with the kids that were there. With things being quiet lately around the borders, the guys had a little more free time, and I was grateful for it.

Passing Damian’s office, I watched Kate and Damien come out with expressions of concern across their laces. Something was wrong, and that was obvious.

“Is everything okay with you two?” I asked as I tried not to show I knew something was wrong. Kate’s eyes quickly met mine as she forced her frown away.

“Oh yeah, don’t be silly. Everything’s fine. Just talking about pack stuff back home is. all.” Kate lying wasn’t something she did, and because it wasn’t, she was horrible at it.
