Book 2 Chapter 10

Caleb’s Point of View

After letting Theo know that I am leaving the pack lands for a quick errand, I am pumped up as I climb in my Jeep. Everything that I have planned out for Daphne is going perfectly, and I hope this is enough to show my beloved mate that there is nothing in this world that I will not do to make her happy.

home. That was the first time that she

had ridden in a car or had control of the

stereo. A smile graces my face as I recall

the simple pleasure that she had gotten

from the experience. I love showing her

new things, and since she was extremely

isolated almost everything is new to her.

LaGrande is a beautiful smaller town in

Oregon. It is home to Eastern Oregon University, as well as many mom-and- pop stores that I prefer over larger corporations. I hold nothing against the big-name stores, but I have an old soul that prefers a much ore simple time. I am extremely grateful for the local college as they are the ones that have completed most of our soil samples. It is also extremely convenient for any members of
