to keep acting like they were a functioning Alpha and Luna team.
“Luna Alexandra, there‘s a problem at one of the construction sites,” one of the contractors said when he called her. “Which site?
” she asked. She rolled her eyes, every day something seemed to fall apart.
“One of the residential houses, belonging to pack member William,” he told her.
“I‘ll be right there,” Alexandra said. She hung up the phone and rushed to where William‘s house was still being built. Constructio

“I know, but this seems more personal,” William said, sipping his coffee.
Alexandra raised an eyebrow at him. “Okay, there is no possible way you can know that,” Alexandra said, chuckling. “Of course, I
