The One He Claimed by Cooper

Chapter 99: Robin's Suggestion Hunter

The next day begins as usual, me pleasuring my mate, me being late for sparring, and then me working with Sophie to help her get stronger and faster after checking over the pack warriors. Some of her movements are starting to become stiffer as my pup grows inside her, making some ovements more difficult. I'

d ask her to stop sparring, but I know my mate and she won't appreciate my protectiveness.

I notice that Ezra is saying "good" a lot more to Margot this morning, meaning he must be testing her on what he taught her yesterday and she's showing him that she's using her newly learned skills this morning. She must have listened to him last night, because she's not as stiff this morning as she was when she came into my office yesterday afternoon.

After breakfast, where surprisingly, Margot joined us, Ezra and I head to my office for the video conference with the other Alphas.

I move my computer to a conference table so that he and I can both participate, and I enter the conference room. Two others are already waiting. One is Kayce, but I only know that because his name is on the screen. His mate is in his lap and the two of them are kissing as if they've forgotten about this meeting.

"Good morning, Kayce, good morning, Luna Allison," I say chuckling.

Allison gasps and pulls away from Kayce, but he holds her in his lap. When she turns toward the camera, she's obviously

blushing.

"I won't apologize for kissing my mate, especially when she only told me last night that she's carrying my pup," Kayce says proudly, and we all congratulate them as the others join. Robin smiles, turning to look over his shoulder. "We need to catch up, Nikki."

"It's not a contest, Robin," she says, walking in and saying hello to Allison.

"Everything's a contest where Alphas are concerned," Robin says, kissing her neck.

"Well then, you'd better up your game, Alpha," she says, making Robin growl.

"Where's Sophie?" Nikki asks.

"Working on better preparing the safe rooms. Apparently, they need a better ambiance, so our pack members aren't sitting scared and waiting while the rest of us fight," I tell her. "What a great idea," Allison says.

"Let's schedule a call with her, Alli," Nikki says.

"I'll set something up," Allison says before the two say goodbye and walk out of the rooms. When Kayce turns back, he's shaking his head.

"Goddess save us from intelligent, empowered Lunas."
