Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 224 WARRICK The packhouse was again busting with activity .

For the first time in weeks , Broken Ridge was alive , much like at wolf stirred out of a long harsh winter .

werewolf moved all over the grounds , hammering broken beams .

into place and moving corpses from recent battles .

Even the pups joined in running errands from the adults apparently with an inexhaustible reserve of energy .

I leaned against a post , watching them all working in harmony .

The murmur of laughter and conversation arising in that group.

was a sound that I hadnt realized just how much Id missed .

Aurora stood near the center of the clearing , gesturing as she spoke to a few pack members .

Dane was beside her , his arm casually thrown over her shoulder .

He said something that made her laugh , and I caught a bit of it as they passed .

Do we call this a victory feast or a thank the Moon Goddess were alive dinner ? he joked .

Aurora smirked , hitting him .

The gathering came together as the sun began to set .

werewolf from every corner of the territory came in , bringing food , stories , and a shared sense of relief .

The long tables groaned under the weight of dishes of roasted meat , fresh vegetables , and even a few loaves of bread that someone mustve stayed up all night baking .

I took up a seat toward the center between Piper and Trajan .

He gave me a glare , but the threatening expression couldnt silence the slightest gleam of a smile .

Somebodys gotta keep the pup element in this pack in order .

Piper snorted , leaning past me to catch his eye .
