Chapter 138: Pumpkin Harvesting
“What do you want to do now?” Logan asked Serena as they walked off the front porch. Serena bit her lower lip. “Pumpkin mead truck?” she asked. Logan smirked. “Alright,” he said. He took her hand and led her back towards the festivities. The carnival games had shut down, but Serena could still hear sounds of celebration from the pack. Beyond the hay maze and pumpkin patch, there was a dance floor set up. String lights were hung around it up high and then there were jack-o-lanterns carved with candles
flickering in them around the edge of the dance floor on the ground.
Live music played, and there were already several couples dancing. There was an old pickup truck parked near the dance floor. It had a massive barrel built over the bed of the truck and there were taps coming out of the side. Many pack members were standing around the truck with metal beer mugs, drinking and toasting. Beside the truck was a huge table full of all kinds of foods and desserts. “This is amazing,” Serena said. “Here, try the mead,” Logan said.

Serena sipped her mead a little more slowly.
The next day marked the pumpkin harvesting event. It was another event geared towards kids, but Serena planned on getting her own pumpkin too so she could carve it with the kids.

raised an eyebrow at her. “Oh,” he said. He chuckled and smirked. “No, absolutely not.” Serena bit her lower lip. “Okay,” she said, her cheeks flushing. “Mommy, we got you the best pumpkin over here,” Olivia said, getting their attention again. Serena and Logan went to the twins again and Serena cut the final pumpkin. She held it in her arms and the four of

apples,” she said, nodding to them. A usually messy game, the wolf that had organized the bobbing for apples had enough foresight to provide plastic ponchos and shower caps to keep the kids and their clothes as dry as possible. Logan sat on the bench beside Serena and slipped his arm around
to her toes. She giggled and squirmed pleasantly against Logan. “I thought…” Serena
