The Claiming by Cooper

The Council Chapter 17 Mason

Mason

I’m not surprised that the pack is excited to know that not only is Jara possibly pregnant but that two other she-wolves are joining our pack.

First, we all know the value of having pups. But the possibility of being pregnant so soon after she was claimed is a big accomplishment and only shows the strength of the bond between me and Jara. Joe and Stella took years to have a pup, and they now have a son. It’s great, and I’m happy for them, but one pup for our entire pack isn’t enough. One pup per couple isn’t going to help us repopulate our numbers. So yeah, Jara potentially being pregnant already is i big deal.

It says a lot that Mignon and Hana are pregnant as well. Hopefully, it means that this group of she-wolves will be happy in their

relationships and will be able to produce several pups, hopefully with most of them being females.

And, the second part of their excitement is that the more females we have, the more we know they are safe. My pack takes the lives of she-wolves very seriously, knowing the impact not having them has had on our pack. But it will also be nice to have another pup around. And not just a pup, a female pup. She may possibly become the princess of the pack in a very short amount of time.

I’ll have to have a talk with Luke and his mate. I don’t know what type of environment they came from in Alpha Shawn’s pack, but here, my pack members will want to be around them, but with no ill intent. I don’t know if Luke’s mate was a ranked member, but any female pup has the potential to have an impact on our pack members. Nothing like the impact that Jara is having, but still

something positive.

As I take Jara’s hand to lead her to our bedroom to shower, I turn

to Lewis.

“Lewis, meet me in my office in an hour.” I tell him.

His eyes go wide, and he looks over at Jara quickly before looking back.

“Yes, Alpha.”
