The Luna and her Quadruplet Pups by Jane Above Story

Chapter 135

3rd Person

“Where’s who?” The scrawny pup squeaked, her scent becoming completely overpowered by fear.

“My pups.” Ethan growled. “Riley, Parker, Paisley and Ryder.”

The child’s eyes widened, and Ethan called over his shoulder, hoping the others could still hear him. Got one!”

“It’s like when you have twins, but four pups instead of two.” Jane answered, smiling warmly. “Ours are four years old, and they got kidnapped last week. We’ve been looking everywhere for them, and we know they’re here somewhere.
