The Alpha’s Hidden Heirs by Avery Rose

Chapter 111

The moment I stepped back into my pack’s territory, a gentle breeze brushed against my face, instantly lifting my spirits and making me feel a little better.

It was such a relief to be home. As I arrived at the airport, I spotted my driver waiting. He quickly stepped forward to take my and Rachel’s luggage while we made our way to the car.

After dropping Rachel off at her place, I finally reached the packhouse late in the evening.

As soon as I stepped inside, I was greeted by the sight of my twins running toward me at full speed. I knelt down, opening my arms wide, and pulled them into a warm embrace.

“Mommy!”

“My babies!”

When I looked up, I saw Magnus and Axel standing nearby, smiling at us. Releasing my children from my arms, I got up and walked toward my brother, wrapping him in a brief hug before asking.

“Magnus, is everything alright?”

“Of course, little one. Why would you think otherwise?” he responded with a smirk.

I gave him a knowing look. “You called Axel here, so I assumed…”

Magnus chuckled. “Everything’s fine. You do realize he’s not just your assistant, right? He’s also this pack’s Beta. Sometimes, his Alpha actually needs him, too.” His teasing tone made Axel and me roll our eyes.

“Magnus,” I huffed, playfully swatting his arm. The others chuckled at our exchange.

“Mommy, we missed you,” Leo said sweetly.

“Mommy, this is for you,” Luna added, handing me a piece of paper.

I glanced down and saw a drawing–a sketch of a woman waving at two children while holding luggage. Luna had always been talented at art, expressing her emotions beautifully through her sketches.

Smiling, I kissed her cheek and pulled both of them into another hug. “Mommy missed you both so much, too. Now, let’s go to your room–I brought lots of gifts for my babies!”

Hand in hand, I led them upstairs, glancing back at Magnus and Axel. Magnus gave me a small nod, silently granting permission for me to spend time with my children.
