While Kennedy was upstairs with her mother, I took the opportunity to give Connor his birthday present. I haven’t given. Kennedy hers yet. I almost don’t want to. Her parents gave her a diamond necklace and it looks beautiful on her. My wolf’s head necklace looks like a trinket in comparison.

‘I want her wearing my face around her neck,’ Raif growls.

‘I know. I’ll give it to her later,’ I say. I know Raif won’t allow me to go without giving her our gift, but I’m not giving it to her here in front of everyone. I don’t want to see the sneering looks of the other Alphas. I’m sure their gifts were all expensive. I’d prefer to throw them all away and if any of them are inappropriate, I will. I didn’t spend as much money on Kennedy as I could have. Instead, I gave her something that matters to me and Raif. Hopefully, she’ll understand and appreciate the gesture.

‘Of course she will,‘ Raif says confidently. I’m not so confident.

“Alpha Quirin, this is extremely generous,” Connor says. His gift was purely about money and making a statement about my wealth. As the incoming Alpha to this pack, I wanted him to know that I’m powerful in more ways than one.

“You’re going to be Alpha. Every Alpha could use a start–up fund

“I… thank you,” he says.

I nod and step away, letting others approach him. Alpha Warren gives me the keys to Kennedy’s car looking like he wants to say something, but wisely chooses to stay quiet. I take the keys and begin to pack the car with her birthday gifts.

“Dad says we have to help you since Kennedy got so many gifts,” Wade, her youngest brother and one of the other set of

says as he comes out carrying several boxes. Right behind him is Yorick, also laden with gifts.

“How many presents does she have?” I’ask, wondering if her car is going to be big enough for everything.

“My sister is well loved by everyone. They all wanted to do something nice for her,” Yorick says, as if warning me that I’d better do something nice for his sister. He’s the next oldest son and at sixteen, he’s already got the build of a strong Alpha. He, like Connor, looks just like his father, only he has the grey–green eyes of Luna Yara and Kennedy.

By the time Kennedy comes back downstairs after packing her things, I’m ready to go. If one more person tries to warn me about not being good enough for Kennedy, telling me that I’d better make sure that I’m worthy of her, or any other type of warning, I may have to kill someone. I already know that I’m not good enough for her. I know she deserves better, but I can’t seem to stop myself from accepting the undeserving gift that the Moon Goddess has given me.

Luna Yara doesn’t exactly warn me though. No, her words are much more powerful to`me. She said she’s putting her trust in me to care for her daughter. The woman who saved my life several years ago is trusting me to care for her daughter like she cared for me. I can’t promise her that I’ll do that. I’m not the same kind of person that Luna Yara is, all glowly and bright. But I do tell her that I will take care of Kennedy,

the tremendous impact that her simple words have on me. I’ve gone years without finding my mate, had basically given up on ever finding her, much less having a pup or heir. When I realized she was my mate tonight, I’d been so overwhelmed with Raif’s pride and possessiveness that pups hadn’t even entered my mind. But now… thought of having little Kennedys running around our packhouse, having a son, my own heir, has me struggling to breathe. Kennedy has just casually handed me a future I never expected to have. The beauty and glow of a future that I don’t know how to
