Dane guides me into the new office. Instead of just a desk for him, there is now one for me. He pushes the pram through the door and checks on the girls before stepping behind me and looping his arms around my waist. "Every Alpha needs a desk." He muses and

Large windows let in the light, making the room bright and welcoming. If this was just one room, I couldn't wait to see the rest.

I catch Damien and Samara's scents. Shortly after, Damien calls out, "Neah? Dane?"
