Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle by Aurora Starling

I had heard about Charlotte; she has the power to see into the future and the past. She's a priestess of the Moon Goddess and debarked on a journey to travel the world a few years ago. I hear she doesn't come around here that often, but Elliot is still in touch with her. Though I had never seen him on the phone with her and he had never actually brought her up to me. But it's known that they were close at one point.

As the afternoon continued, we traveled into lighter topics. They asked me about my occupation, what I like to do for fun, my favorite type of flowers, my favorite color, and even my favorite foods. They truly wanted to get to know me; as time went on, even Alison started to warm up to me.

In return, I learned a lot about them as well. Emma and Alison grew up in this pack and know all of the tea that goes on around town. Cara grew up as the Beta daughter in the Howling pack a few hours away from here. She was traveling with her father and Alpha for business to this pack when she met Gamma Erik and found out he was her mate.

That was a little over a year ago and she's been here ever since. She has a good relationship with her family, and they still talk all the time. Because of their joining, they have a pretty strong alliance with the Howling pack.

We shared many laughs and memories, and it was a pretty good day. I told them about my best friend Rebecca and suggested we all hang out together.
