I spent one more night in the clinic, which gave Andricia the time to heal me completely.
The twins stayed with me, only leaving my side when they had to pee. I slept on and off,
and when I wasn’t asleep, we took the time to get to know each other more. I met Alpha
Brenner of the Moonlight Pack and thanked him for giving me the care that saved my life.
The twins told me that we already have an alliance with this pack, so there wasn’t
anything to offer other than my gratitude.
Lincoln and Landon packed me up into their Jeep, and we started the journey back. When I
asked about my apartment, they told me that they had it packed up and things were going
to be moved. I guess I can’t really complain since I didn’t have to pack anything up myself.
Moving is always the worst, and this way, I don’t have to deal with it.
The drive back to Emerald Lake was pretty quiet. My mind was spinning with so many
scenarios and possible issues that I really didn’t have anything to talk about. The twins
seemed to be lost in their thoughts that I didn’t care to see about. I’m not going to lie; I’m
super nervous about returning to packlands and what that may mean for me. I know I
have to trust my mates and the Moon Goddess, but it’s hard not to consider the ‘what ifs.’
We finally arrive back on packlands and pull up to the packhouse. I notice that Alpha Paul
is standing outside of the packhouse, but Luna Kimberly is nowhere to be found. I can’t
say that I’m surprised, but it does make an impression.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLincoln stops the car, and I take a few deep breaths to try to get myself ready for what’s
to come. I feel sparks on my arms and look up to Landon standing over me, having
already unbuckled my seatbelt. I don’t remember him opening the door at all. “Are you
okay? Do you need to see the pack doctor?” I really need to try to stay out of my head,
but it’s really hard.
I quickly shake my head. “I’m okay. I just got a bit lost in my thoughts.” Landon moves to
the side to let me out of the Jeep. I stand on shaky legs but try my hardest to keep anyone
else from noticing my extreme nervousness. Alpha Paul walks toward us with his eyes set
on me. He stops when he gets two feet away from me. I stand still and just look at him,
not knowing what I should say or do. Alpha Paul grabs me and wraps me in a big hug. I’m
stiff at first, but I eventually relax and hug him back. “I’m so glad you’re okay, and you’re
back here.”
“Uh…thank you, Alpha.” I didn’t expect this type of reception, and I plead with myself not
to mess this up.
“Who’s Alpha? You can call me Paul and, maybe one day, even dad.” I can feel my cheeks
heat up, and I look down at the ground in an attempt to keep my reactions to myself. I
nod, and the Alpha puts his arm around my shoulders, and we head into the packhouse.
I half expect the Luna to jump out of a room, ready to attack me. I know that would be
crazy, but it could actually happen. The Alpha continues to walk me until we get to
Landon’s room. He opens the door and lets me in. “I know you probably need some more
rest. I can’t wait to get to know you better. Perhaps at dinner……..” Alpha gives the boys a
wink, and he heads off, making his way back downstairs.
~Adela~
It has been days since we saw the twins, but there has been no information about them.
Luna Kimberly has not heard from them, but she suspects that the Alpha knows
something. They haven’t really been talking, so she isn’t really sure. There hasn’t been
any news about Portia either, so at this point, it is all hope and wishing.
The front door slams open, and Aida rushes into the kitchen, where I’m enjoying a cup of
coffee. She stops before me and tries to suck in the air. Aida has her hands on her knees,
looking like she just ran for days. The sound of her haggard breathing is actually starting
to get on my nerves. “What is it already?”
“They…..they’re back. The twins are back on packlands.” I place my coffee cup down and
stand up.
“Are you sure?” Aida sighs in frustration and stands up straight.
“Do you think I would tell you without being sure? Luna Kimberly just told me that they are
back. She wants us over there as soon as possible.” I can feel the smile grow on my face. I

Luna Kimberly is waiting out back for us, and she looks impatient. “You two took your
sweet time. They have been back for an hour already. I haven’t seen them yet; I was
waiting for you two.”
“I’m sorry. I wasn’t at the house when you mind linked me. I had to run home and grab
Adela.” Luna Kimberly waves us off and grabs Aida’s hand. We head into the packhouse
through the dining room. It is between meals, so there aren’t a whole lot of people in the
room. Luna Kimberly is in the lead, with Aida behind her and me behind them both. We
have a bit of a caravan going on that probably looks comical.
As I’m musing about how we probably look to others, we are weaving our way through the
dining room into the kitchen. The kitchen has a long counter with stools against it. Many
times, if you come in for a quick meal, you can sit up at the counter to eat. Before I’m able
to make it into the kitchen and see the counter, I run into the back of Aida. She has
stopped behind Luna Kimberly, and it makes me wonder what happened.
I step around Aida and walk up to the doorway that leads to the kitchen where the Luna
has stopped. I step in front of her and can instantly feel my anger rise. Lincoln and Landon
are behind the counter, making some food. Sitting at the counter, laughing and joyful, is
none other than my b***h of a sister.
