SWNOVELS Chapter 172
Book Two Chapter Eighteen
Future Alpha Aspen
After dropping Channing and Landon off at the pack house, I drove back to the diner to pick up Tessa and Sarah. I didn’t want either one of them to walk home tonight. It was below freezing and neither one of them had their wolves to keep them warm.
I had pulled up and parked when Landon was in my head.
"Alpha is looking for you.”
“I'll talk to him when I get home,” I replied
“Aspen, something serious is going on. You need to be careful and be on the lookout for wolves who are not a part of the pack. The council is getting crafty,” he warned me.
“I'm picking up the girls now and will be staying at their place all night. You can debrief me in the morning and then we can start our hunt.”
"Just be careful, Aspen,” he said before closing the link.
I sat in my truck, thinking about what Landon said. I was going to have to get Tessa a car. I didn't like her walking around with a threat hanging over our heads. The more I spent with her, the more I understood my father's overprotectiveness of his mate. The council hurt her and he was going for blood.
"Hey Handsome,” Tessa opened the passenger door pulling me from my thoughts. “Is everything okay?” She asked, climbing up into the seat. Sarah was climbing into the back seat.

"Yeah, just work. I brushed it off. “You two hungry? Pizza!”
“I love that I don't have to put out for food,” Sarah teased.
“Sarah.” Tesse gasped and I chuckled. “You can walk.”
“Now, Now, ladies, I was buying food, even without S*x.” Tema smacked me in the chest and I groaned. Her checks burned and she was trying not to smirk, which had me grinning
I backed out of the parking space before taking her hand in mine. This was my girl and I wanted everyone to know she was mine.
Making our way into their apartment, Sarah rushed off to have a shower first, leaving me with Tessa, who went to change. I took a seat on the tiny couch and pulled out my phone to order pizza for us. I didn't mind having to feed Sarah as well.
Tessa came in after changing out of her uniform and sat down beside me. I throw an arm over her shoulders and she snuggled her check into my chest.
“Your brother seems nice,” she mumbled, while I finished the order on the app.
“Yeah, he's alright. A bit grumpy since he went off to college.”
“Can I ask you a question?” she stammered. I pocketed my phone and focused my attention on the woman in my arms.
“You know I'm an open book for you,” I reminded her.
“It's just you and your brother don't look alike,” I laughed before she could finish. She pushed off my chest to look at me.
“What?” she furrowed her brow.

“If you want to get technical, he’s my stepbrother. Our parents are second-chance mates. It's a long story but basically, his mom got pregnant when she was young and then was forced out of her pack. She stayed away from packs until the company she worked for sent her here. They didn't know they were second-chance mates until she got pregnant with my sister. There's a bunch of other things in there but that's the gist of it.” I explained.
"Oh," she exhaled.
"Did you really not know? I thought everyone knew how the pack gained another Luna.”
“I don't pay much attention to things like that, I'm sorry.” she shrugged. She snuggled back into my chest.
"What happened to the other Luna?” she whispered as she drew circles on my abs.
“My mother passed away a few days after I was born.” I k*ssed her head.
“I'm so sorry, Aspen,” she gasped.
“Thank you. It's hard because I never knew her. But Ryley has always treated me like her son from the moment we met. She was also my second chance.” I squeezed her tightly.
“Does your father feel the same way about Channing? He's an alpha wolf, right?”
“And my father accepted him as his own. My father adopted him and she adopted me. They also got married. It would be a perfect relationship if my father wasn't so stubborn.” I told her.
“They must really love each other if they fell in love without knowing they were mates,” she shrugged.

“We almost lost her, twice. First, the council took her and suppressed her Luna wolf under silver. She was pregnant with my sister at the time but didn't know. Then her ex-mate, Channing's father kidnapped her and she almost died when the pack house exploded. Her mother was able to save her daughter and granddaughter. Luna wolves can heal with their blood. Mom, also saved my life when Channing and I were in a car accident. She gave up her identity when she saved my life but she was willing to do anything to save me.”
“She sounds like such a wonderful Luna.”
“I would like for you to meet her.” Her b*dy tensed. “Whenever you are ready. There's no pressure.” I finished.
"Shower’s free,” Sarah called out. Tessa pulled back and looked up at me again.
"Go shower, the pizza will be here soon.” I pecked her I*ps.
"Okay," she breathed out before pecking my I*ps and standing up from the couch. I watched as she walked down the small hallway to the bathroom.
"With everything going on, I want her to move into the pack house,” Bliz grumbled.
“I can't force her to move, no matter how much I want her to. Something is happening and until the council has been dealt with, it won't be safe for her to stay here.” I sighed. There has to be a way to keep her safe without her knowing. I cringed at my thoughts, hearing my father in my head. I need to get a few warriors to watch over her and Sarah until this mess is cleaned up.
The buzzer rang and I knew it was the pizza. I walked out of the apartment to the front doors to retrieve the food and drinks I had ordered.
