Chapter 0356
“What are your ns for today, Grace?” | ask as we finish our food.
“| want to get theputer set up for the kitchens and packhouse.” She stops, turning to me. “Did you get them out of the car
yesterday, or were you
interrupted.”
“They must still be in the car.” | look up at Noah. “You didn’t get them out, did. you?”
“No, Alpha. After everything happened, itpletely slipped my mind. And once | found Sirona,” he pulls his mate closer to him,
kissing her. “Well, after that, my mind was focused on other things.”
Sirona is a blusher. | can tell Noah will enjoy making his mate blush as frequently as possible. From the corner of my eye, | see
Carlos flinch at their show of affection. Time for me to find out what’s going on.
“Carlos, how about you and | go get theputers. Hopefully there wasn’t any food left in the car.” |
I say.
“No, the omegas were helping us unload.” Grace says.
| extend my hand to Grace, helping her to stand, taking any opportunity | can to touch her. | kiss her hand before letting her go.
“I''ll bring yourputer to you and then Carlos and | will go set up theputer in his office. Noah, why don’t you start looking
around for offices for the ranked members. Try to keep us as close together as possible. Then, take your mate to the pack
hospital and let her see what she’s up against.”
I turn to her. “It will be a lot of work, | hope you''re ready for that.” | tell her.
“As | told Luna Grace, | don’t mind hard work and | love a challenge.”
| can’t help but smile. “Well, then, you’ve found your mate in the right pack because hard work and a challenge are what we''ve
got for you.”
| drop Grace off in the kitchen before Carlos and | make our way out to Noah’s car. It’s unlocked, but | have to pop the truck to
get theputers out.
“So, you want to tell me what’s up with you and your mate?” | ask him and watch. as his lips press into a thin line.
He may not want to talk about it, but he needs to, so | wait him out.
Finally, he sighs, and we lean against the car, setting theputer boxes on the
ground. “She has a child, but | don’t know what it means that no one is looking for her. | assumed that she was in a rtionship
with another wolf. | mean, wouldn’t the father want to know where his child is? | know it’s a girl, and some wolves, especially
Alphas, feel that girls aren’t worthy of being heirs, but 1 couldn’t image letting a woman who was carrying my child just walk out
of my
life.”
“Why haven''t you talked to her?”
“It was a little chaoticst night.”
| look at him, raising my eyebrow. “Noah found time to fight against the hunters, help the injured and still mark and mate his
newly found mate. And you''re telling me you didn’t have time for a conversation with yours?”
“Okay, fine. | didn’t know what to say. And....” He stops, running his hand through his hair. “And maybe she doesn’t want a
wolfless mate.” He says quietly.
And there itis, the real issue.
“It didn’t seem like it to me at breakfast. She seemed sad to me, maybe even a bit heartbroken that her mate is ignoring her. She
has no one, and she’s going to remain in this pack. You’re going to have to talk to her and figure this out. If you decide to reject
her...
He cuts me off. “I would NEVER reject my mate! | can’t believe the Moon Goddess even gave me one. Why would | give that
up??” He practically yells at me.
“Then act like her mate. Or at least, talk to her and find out how she got into this position. She’s not just running from hunters,
Carlos.”
His brows pinch together. “What do you mean?”
“She’s a single mother, with a baby, alone in the world. Do you even know how long she’s been with the hunters?”
| can see the moment he understands my meaning. If no one is looking for Amber and she has a baby, maybe her pregnancy
urred while she was with the hunters. Or maybe the baby’s father was killed while she was pregnant. Either way, it means
she’s been through a lot..
“You''re right. Thank you, Alpha. I''ll talk to her.”Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
“Now is good.” | say to him as | reach down and pick up one of theputer boxes.
“Now?”
“Yeah, now. No time like the present. | can set up theputer while you take
+15 HONGS
your mate and have a good conversation. Figure things out with her and when you’re done,e meet me in your office and
we''ll talk about our new training schedule.” | say as we walk into the kitchen, and | nod for Carlos to put hisputer box on the
counter.
“Here’s yourputer, Grace.” | say, noticing that Amber is helping to clean the breakfast dishes while her babyys in a
improvised crib nearby. She looks up and immediately looks back down when she sees Carlos, her cheeks turning pink.
| turn and watch him staring at her before he finally looks at Grace. “Luna, might | take Amber and have a word with her?”
Grace looks at me before answering. “Of course. Amber, we''ve got this. Why don’t you go speak with Carlos. Do you want me to
watch your baby?”
“No, thank you Luna. I''ll take her.” She says before drying her hands, picking up her child and following Carlos out of the kitchen.
Grace walks up to me, wrapping her arms around me. “I hope that will be a good conversation.” She says, leaning up and kissing
my lips softly.
“Me too, but at least there will be a conversation. He’s more concerned about being rejected than her having a child. | think she’s
more worried about having a child than him not having a wolf.”
“What a motley crew our pack is.”
“| wouldn''t have it any other way, baby.” | kiss the corner of her mouth. “Will you be ready to leave tomorrow morning. | have to
speak with Liam and Rik, and they really want you to meet Cara and Angel. You''ll like them.”
“Yes. | need to figure out who can run aputer and set it up for me while I’m gone, but that won''t take me long. We have our
meals nned, food for the pack and | think everything will be good with Carlos and Noah here while we are gone.
“Good. I’m going to go get myputer set up and start putting all of Carlos’s paper into the 21st century.”
Sheughs as she pulls out of my arms, turning to get back to work. | can’t help but smack her perfect ass, loving her startled
gasp and the surprised look on her face. | give her my best smirk before turning and heading to the office.
