The next morning. | was feeling much more like myself. When Eli and | went down to breakfast, | saw immediately what Noah
meant about the ‘sprite situation’. Leni and Lna were tall. They still glowed like sprites, but they are walking beside
Alexander standing over five feet tall if |
had to quess.
“Lady Luna Grace, Lady Luna Grace.” They both exim excitedly before embracing me in the bright light of their arms and
bodies.
“Oh’ | say, unused to such effusive affection before wrapping my arms around them in an awkward hug.
“Girls, let Luna Grace breathe.” Alexander says and they immediately release me and step back. He wraps an arm around each
one as they nk him.
“What? How?”
“Look! Look!” They say, pulling their hair aside and showing me their mate marks. A slow smile spreads across my face.
“You''re mated!” | say, happy for their excitement.
“Yes! Alexander and Fynn wanted us as their mates.” They turn their adoring eyes to Alexander who kisses first one then the
other.
“I''m very happy for you, but how are you..tall?”
“Oh, when we have someone that wants us...”
“Someone who wants to be our mate forever...
“Then we can take on their form..
“Simr to how you shift into a wolf...
“We can now shift into a human.”
“Alexander said the human side is better than the wolf...”
“Easier for us to go out in public-
“Easier for us to mate...”
“So that is the form we chose.”
| step forward, taking one of each of their hands in mine, trying to stop the barrage of informationing from them. Alexander, |
note, doesn’t seem overwhelmed at all. He looks perfectly content
and happy.
| nce at him before turning to the sprites. “Did Alexander exin to you what it means to be
mated to a werewolf?”
“Yes. We are his.”
“And he is ours.”
We don’t share our lighText property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
with anyone else.”
“And he doesn’ty with anyone but us.
“Well, we can share our light with Fynn.”
“But they are really the same.”
“We love Fynn as much as Alexander.”
Fynn starts purring at this announcement and the twins shiver in excitement. Oh goddess, they may look different, but they are
justrger versions of the sprites they have always been.
“Alpha Eli and | are very happy for all of you.” | say because | know Eli is gritting his teeth. The bouncing conversation gets on
his nerves.
“Alexander, have you given any consideration to where the three of you will live?” Eli asks him.
“Actually, Alpha, | wanted to talk to you about moving the location of my home. The girls would like to be closer to their families
and | wanted to see if we could look to build closer to the forest. know Thomas and T have been thinking the same thing, if
that’s possible.”
Eli nods. “Let’s talk tomorrow. Luna Grace and | have several announcements that may impact our discussion. We''ll be having a
pack meeting tonight.”
They walk off and we go to get our food. “I was wondering how that whole mate thing would work. | guess now we know.” | say to
Eli.
During breakfast, Eli mind links the pack, letting them know about our gathering tonight. | go to Cammy and make sure that we
are set for food to feed the entire pack. She tells me that she''ll have to increase the food she was nning because as houses
are being built and with food avable at the market, some pack members are choosing to cook and eat in their own homes
After double checking our food supplies. | head out to the garden.
“Lady Luna Grace, Lady Luna Grace.”
turn as the twinse flitting up to me. Even taller, they look more like they are floating than
walking.
“Alexander said we should ask you what we can do to help in the pack.”
“Yes, now that we are part of the pack, we want to help.”
| think for a moment. “What can you do?”
They look at each other,
“We can fly.”
“We can glow in the dark.”
“We can make nts grow.”
“We can.”
“Wait!” | say, holding up a hand. “You can make nts grow?”
“Oh yes.”
“It''s easy.”
“We''re sprites, after all.”
“So, you could help our garden grow?” | ask.
“Oh yes.” They both nod.
“Let''s go see what you can do.” | say before taking them into the garden.
Victoria is working this morning. “Hi Victoria. Have you met Leni and Lna?”
“Not specifically. Nice to meet you both.”
“You as well.” Leni says, but her attention is on the garden.
“You did all this?” Lna says, also looking around the garden.
Victoria frowns, looking at me. “There are several of us that work in the garden.”
As we watch, the twins begin walking through the nts, their fingers barely brushing against the nts as they pass. As they
touch them, the nts seem to perk up, their color bing brighter, standing taller and the fruits and vegetables growing on
them seems to get bigger in
front of our eyes.
