Chapter 109: Bad Timing, Good Timing

Serena arched an eyebrow at Logan. His little outburst caused her to actually pay attention to him. Her mind had been wandering with her brother, wondering what he was really up to. “You don’t think it was a mistake to have the one-night stand that we did?” she asked.

“No,” Logan said firmly. “I think that would be saying that the twins were a mistake, and I don’t believe they are. I know you don’t believe they are.” Serena sighed, grabbing another glass of wine off a tray that a waitress carried by. She took a big gulp. Logan was right. “You’re right,” she admitted. “The twins aren’t a mistake. I would never think of them like that. Maybe the mistake was not seeking you out after…” she trailed off. Logan shook his head. “No, that wasn’t a mistake either,” he said. “Hindsight is a great way to pretend I know what you were going through and pretend I could have made the right decision at the time. Honestly, I don’t think I would have been in a place to raise twins if you’d told me back then.” Serena looked at Logan fully for the first time since she entered the celebration. His eyes were cast down, the corners of his lips turned down in a frown. He was being honest with himself and with her. “I appreciate you saying that,” Serena said, sipping her wine. Logan raised his eyes and smiled at her. He had a bottle of beer in his hand, taking a swig off the top. “But seriously, we didn’t make a mistake,” Logan insisted. “No, I guess not,” she said. Serena agreed with Logan on the most basic level. If she hadn’t had a one-night stand with him, then she never would have had the twins. She would never fault their existence or wish she didn’t have them. She’d never wish that the timing had been different, because she loved them so much, just the way they were! “What would you call it?” she asked Logan. Logan shrugged, looking out at the crowd of the gathered wolves. Serena followed his gaze. She couldn’t remember the last time Moonshine, Starseeker, and Night Sky had all been together. The Moonshine wolves stood out, but Serena liked seeing that they weren’t being excluded or avoided. Logan had made it clear that all Moonshine wolves being assimilated had been at the mercy of Damon, not supporting him. Starseeker and Night Sky had been much more

accommodating based on that. Nd say it was bad timing,” Logan said with a grin.

“Yes, it was very helpful,” he said. “As was your work on the treaty addendum. Why didn’t you want your father to know?” “He would never understand,” Serena said with a shrug. “I’m not the one with the mind of a leader

said as Thomas kissed her on the cheek. Her dad raised his beer up. “A toast, a new beginning between our packs and our families,“ Thomas offered. “Here, here,” Logan said, raising his beer. Serena lifted her glass. “That sounds good” Serena agreed, sipping her wine. “Logan, can you come with me, there are some wolves I want to introduce to you, wolves from Moonshine,” Thomas said. Logan nodded. He looked over his shoulder at Serena

Holly would be Luna soon, seeing as Logan had agreed to stay with her to raise their baby. “This pack owes you a great date, so dol,” Flo said, following Serena’s gaze to Logan. “Things with Moonshine were tense even before Logan became
